have all been deeply interested in the views which, with so much learning and ability, have been recently put forth 0n the origin and classification of species. I allude particularly to the work of Mr. Darwin on the Origin of Species, and to Agassiz's Essay on Classification. The view of Mr. Agassiz, which he had already propounded in his larger American work, being, that there are six grand centres of creation, Palearctic, Nearctic, African, Indian, South American, and Australian. The principle

problem which the treatise on the Origin of Species suggests for solution. And this cannot be done unless we possess a distinct conception of the words we employ. Let us therefore inquire, what is the meaning of the word species? The necessity of classifying the various objects in the animal and vegetable kingdoms was fully recognised by Socrates when he applied his dialectical mode of investigation to test the meaning of general terms. The object of classification was to carve out the organic

He also gave an outline of an article by Mr. W. Hopkins in Fraser's Magazine, for June and July, 1860, which he thought to be, on the whole, the best and most philosophical review of the subject he had seen

The Complete Work of Charles Darwin Online [page] SCIENTIFIC AND LITERARY. THE ORIGIN OF THE SPECIES. - It must be a remarkable book that can invest a theme so recondite and at the same time so hackneyed as the above with interest sufficient to wean an Englishman from the love or himself and concentrate the mind or John Bull on a theory of other men's origin and tendencies. Yet such a book has lately been put forth, according to the English Reviews for April, and besides furnishing the subject

To hope for an explanation would be as vain as for the human mind to expect to discover by philosophy the agency by which Joshua made the sun and moon stand still. Our ignorance, therefore, of the origin of species is absolute and complete, if every new species is supposed to require a distinct and independent act of
