balance so often observed in nature,—a deficiency in one set of organs always being compensated by an increased development of some others—powerful wings accompanying weak 1 Lamarck 1809. Lamarck's theory of biological transmutation or evolution was well-known to nineteenth-century naturalists. Very often, however, it was misrepresented in the English-speaking world, as Wallace does here, by representing it as driven by the will of individual organisms. [page] 6

and hard and fast laws; a fact which makes the explanatory power of evolution by natural selection all the more extraordinary. It is characteristic of Darwin's book that key points are made at the end of chapters, as he gradually builds up his argument, and the final sentence of the current leaf provides the radical conclusion to a chapter that had ranged from Victorian hothouses to speculation on the origin of the domestic dog: there is no fundamental difference between species varieties

That Phillips was thoroughly justified in his position towards evolution is suggested by the fact that even Huxley, the most philosophic advocate of the theory, fully admitted that at the time of publication of the Origin, palaeontology lent to its doctrine no support

Towards the end of his career, geology, like all other science, was confronted by the reappearance of an old and discredited doctrine, but now presented afresh with new and startling vigour; it was the doctrine of evolution as expounded in the famous 'Origin of Species by Natural Selection. Once more an Oxford professor was called upon to pronounce judgment on one of those momentous questions which arise from time to time to disturb the steady current of established thought. Darwin's present

homologous with the wings and wing-covers of insects, it is probable that organs which at a very ancient period served for respiration have been actually converted into organs of flight . Although Darwin had been gradually developing his ideas on evolution for decades and had shared them with confidantes such as Sir Charles Lyell in 1856, and was gradually assembling his big book on natural selection, it took a crisis for him to bring forth the Origin. In June 1858 he received Alfred Russel Wallace's

insoluble contradictions. But the difficulty, whatever it may be, is wholly metaphysical; till recently, no one over dreamed of beholding it transported to the province of physical science. But Mr. Darwin will object, that, however vast may be the lapse of years which is needed, according to his system, for the natural evolution of a universe of animate beings out of a monad, and he admits it to be utterly inappreciable by the human intellect, still he has not avowed that it must be strictly

, it must be confessed that the period needed for the evolution of this system lacks no characteristic of eternity except its name. Here it may be remarked, that, formidable as Mr. Darwin admits the objection to his theory to be, that geological research has discovered so very few of the interminable number of intermediate forms which must have existed as connecting links between the living and extinct inhabitants of the world, still he does not half appreciate its magnitude. The objection is
