Throughout his work, he carefully endeavors to bring his subject within the scope of the unlearned, though, at the same time, he affects to discuss it scientifically. He had previously made an effort to influence the minds of the working classes of England, by oral and published Lectures on the Origin of Species, in which he studiously seeks to disseminate the atheistical views embraced in Darwin's hypothesis, which we have already reviewed, in Part I. of this

Dr. Hunt selects from my paper On the Origin of Human Races, etc., deduced from the Theory of Natural Section, published in the Review of May, 1864, two statements of opinion which are not, perhaps, very important parts of that paper, and maintains that they are not fairly deducible from Mr. Darwin's principles. The first is, Man may have been, indeed I believe must have been, once a homogeneous race. The second is that, Man may and probably will in the future again become a

Before entering on details a few general remarks on the origin of cultivated plants may be introduced. M. Alph. de Candolle1 in an admirable discussion on this subject, in which he displays a wonderful amount of knowledge, gives a list of 157 of the most useful cultivated plants. Of these he believes that 85 are

The remark quoted in my text will surprise every one who has read Mr. Wallace's celebrated paper on 'The Origin of Human Races deduced from the Theory of Natural Selection,' originally published in the 'Anthropological Review,' May, 1864, p. clviii. I cannot here resist quoting a most just remark by Sir J. Lubbock ('Prehistoric Times,' 1865, p. 479) in reference to this paper, namely, that Mr. Wallace, with characteristic unselfishness

It is needless to say that on the subject of domestic pigeons our author is very full. Although we do not in the least know the origin of the common tumbler, we may suppose, he thinks, that a bird was born with some affection of the brain, leading it to make somersaults in the air; and he supports this hypothesis by what we know about pigeons in India before 1600

The fourteenth lecture, on Schöpfungs-Perioden und SchöpfungsUrkunden, answers pretty much to the famous disquisition on the Imperfection of the Geological Record in the Origin of Species.

Having now, I believe, fairly answered the chief objections of the Duke of Argyll, I proceed to notice one or two of those adduced in an able and argumentative essay on the Origin of Species in the North British Review for July, 1867. The writer first attempts to prove that there are strict limits to variation. When we begin to select variations in any one direction, the process is comparatively rapid, but

admirable to see the calmness and moderation (for which philosophical would be too low an epithet) with which the author handles his subject. If prejudice can be conciliated, it will surely be by a book like this. It consists of two parts. The first treats of the origin of man, his affinities to other animals, and the formation of the races (or sub-species) of the human family. Besides the obvious interest to all Mr. Darwin's readers of a discussion on the subject of their proper knowledge, naturalists

Sir John Lubbock's work on the Origin of Civilization has reached a second edition in England, in spite of a good deal of adverse criticism, based chiefly on theological grounds. The conclusions maintained by Sir John Lubbock in this work are, in his own words

The Complete Work of Charles Darwin Online [page] 3 MR. DARWIN ON THE DESCENT OF MAN.* In these volumes, which have been expected with the greatest interest, Mr. Darwin has at once carried to the furthest possible extent his famous hypothesis of Natural Selection, and has developed for the first time an important supplement to that hypothesis. In his work on the Origin of Species, he maintained the theory that all Species, instead of having been independently created, and possessing an

which has been fully treated in many valuable works. To the action of Natural Selection, as explained in the well-known 'Origin of Species,' the author here adds an elaborate treatise on the influence of Sexual Selection, which indeed is the main characteristic of the present publication. With reference to natural selection Mr. Darwin now admits that he has probably attributed too much to this principle in the earlier editions of his 'Origin of Species.' He had not formerly sufficiently considered

the most marvellous developments of beauty in plumage may have been produced by the constant selection of slight modifications; and he explains in this manner the origin of the eyed train of the peacock, and the wonderfully decorated wings of the Argus pheasant, with an acuteness and success hardly inferior to that which he exhibited when investigating the structure of coral reefs or of orchids.

In his earlier writings a certain reticence veiled, though it did not hide, his ultimate conclusions as to the origin of our own species; but now all possibility of misunderstanding or of a repetition of former disclaimers on the part of any disciple is at an end, and the entire and naked truth as to the logical consequences of Darwinism is displayed
