[…] You would never say that Lamarck had been the discoverer of growth in nature, neither has it definite meaning to me when you say that Darwin was the discoverer evolution. I can understand enough of Darwin's Origin of Species' to enable me to admire his power of observation and his true genius of combination. I can see how he has reduced the number of unnecessary species, and unnecessary acts of so-called special creation; and that possibly he has traced back the whole of the animal and

discussion was then cut short by the president to leave time for the other papers, my own exposition having taken so long. I replied briefly. Shortly after this, Mr. Romanes delivered a lecture on the Evidences of Organic Evolution, which he reprinted in the 'Fortnightly,' and afterwards worked up into a little book called 'The Scientific Evidences of Organic Evolution.' About this lecture Mr. Darwin wrote: Down. My dear Romanes, I have just finished your lecture. It is an admirable scientific argument

. Evans' work and also with Sir William Wilde's Catalogue,1 and I do not think that any of the statements made in them will be challenged; but as these forms were not developed for the purpose of filling in the spaces in rectangular diagrams, such diagrams only , imperfectly convey an idea of the evolution which has taken place, and must be regarded only as provisional and liable to be improved. In tracing the evolution of prehistoric implements, we are of course limited to such as were constructed

On my way South I stayed for a couple of days at Newcastle, to give two lectures on Mental Evolution, and hence my absence when you called. I stayed with Mr. Newall, who has the monster telescope, and 'as good luck would have it, Providence was on my side,' in the matter of giving us a clear sky for observing, rather a rare thing at Newcastle. You will be glad to hear that our season's work at the 'Zoological station' has been very successful. A really interesting research has been conducted

ON THE EVOLUTION OF CULTURE (1875) If we accept the definition of the term science as 'organized common sense', we necessarily reject the idea of it as a ' great medicine' applicable only to particular subjects and inapplicable to others; and we assume that all those things which call forth the exercise of our common sense are capable of being scientifically dealt with, according as the knowledge which we pretend to have about them is based on evidence in the first place, and in the sequel is

that our third stage is but a development of the second, evolution being merely the necessary and inevitable result of the extension of classification, implying greater unity and broader generalizations. v' These three stages then, the empirical or practical, the classificatory or comparative, and the evolutionary, are applicable to the development of all the inductive sciences. But it has been held by some that a broad line of demarcation must be drawn between the physical sciences properly so

this objection might have appeared during the empirical and comparative stages of the physical sciences, it cannot be maintained, since the researches of Darwin and others have fairly landed them in their evolutionary phase. The principles of variation and natural selection have established a bond of union between the physical and culture sciences which [ can never be broken. History is but another term for evolution. There are histories and histories, as any one may determine who has read

those classifications which form the groundwork of a science. But when we say that words and implements are both tools employed for the expression of thought, it is important to bear in view one difference between them, which hag a practical bearing on the relative value of the two studies as a means of tracing the evolution of culture in prehistoric times and amongst savages. The word is the tool of the ear, the implement the tool of the eye; and for this reason language is the science of historic

is by this means alone that we can trace out the origin and evolution of culture in the earliest times. The task before us is to follow by means of them the succession of ideas by which the mind of man has developed, from the simple to the complex, and from the homogeneous to the heterogeneous ; to work out step by step, by the use of such symbols as the arts afford, that law of contiguity by which the mind has passed from simple cohesion of states of consciousness to the association of ideas
