' -.—■■■■■■. ABOUT EVOLUTION. Star. Dr. Talmage Takes Issue with Darwin and Huxley. fk* TkWff of Kvolotton Oppcwd to tt* Blbl« mod to Soot 8ct«nc« Tlie 9urthal of tko fttMt u Doinhotoottol Mjrth. Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage, in the follow inff sermon, discusses evolution, ns related to human origin. The text is; O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding oppositions of soience falsely so called.—I Timothy, vi. a There is no contest between genuine science and revelation. The same God who by the hand of the prophet wrote •on parchment, by the hand of the storm wrote on the rock. The best telescopes and microscopes and electric batteries and philosophical apparatus belong to Christian universities. Who gave ns magnetic telegraphy? Prof. Morse, a Christian. Who swung the lightnings under the ses, cabling the continents together? Cyrus W. Field, the Christian. Who discovered the anaesthetics] properties of chloroform, doing more the relief of human pain than any man that ever lived, driving back nine-tenths of the horrors of surgery? James Y. Simpson, of Edinburgh, as eminent for piety as for science; on week days in the university lecturing on profoundest scientific subjects, and on Sabbaths preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the masses of Edinburg. 1 saw the universities of that city draped in mourning for his death, and I heard his eulogy pronounoed by the destitute populations of the Cowgate. Science and revelation are the basa and soprano of the same tune. The whole world will yet acknowledge the complete harmony. But between what my text describes as science falsely so-called, and revelation, there is an uncompromising war, and one or the other- must go under. At the present time the air is filled with social and platform and pulpit talk about evolution, and it is high time that the people who have not time to make investigation for themselves understand that evolution in the first place is up and down, out-and-out infidelity; in the second place it is contrary to the facts of science, and in the third place, that it is brutalising in its tendencies. 1 do not argue that this is a genuine book. I do not say that the Bible is worthy of any kind of credence —those are subjects for other Sabbaths —but 1 want -you to understand that Thomas Paine and liuuie and Voltaire no more thoroughly disbelieve the Holy Scriptures than do all the leading scientists who believe in evolution. And when 1 say scientists, of course I do not mean literary men or thcolo

gians who m essay or sermon, and without giving their life to scientific investigations. look at the subject on this aide or that. By scientists I mean those who have a specialty in that direction and who. through zoological garden and aquarium and astronomical observatory, give their life to the study of the physical earth, its plants and its animals, and the regions beyond so far as optical instruments have explored them. 1 put upon the witness stand living and dead, the leading evolutionists— Ernst Ueckel, John Stuart Mill, Huxley. Tyndall, Darwin, Spencer. On the witness stand, ye men of science, living and dead, answer these questions: Do you believe the Holy Scriptures? No. And so they say ail. Do you believe the Bible story of Adam and Eve in the Harden of Eden? No. And so they say all. Do you believe the miracles of the Old and New Testament? No. And so they say all. Do you believe that Jesus Christ died to save the nations? No. And so they aay all. Do you believe in the regenerating power of the Holy Ghost? No. And so they say all. Do you believe that human supplication directed Heavenward ever makes any difference? No. And so they say all. Herbert Spencer, in the only address he made in this country, in his very first sentence ascribes his physical ailments to fate, and the authorized report of that address begins the word fate with a big “F.~ Prof. Heckel, in the very first page of his two great volumes, sneers at the Bible as a socalled revelation. Tyndall, in his famous prayer test, defied the whole of Christendom to show that human supplication made any difference in the result of things. John Stuart Mill wrote elaborately against Christianity, and. to show that his rejection of it was complete, ordered this epitaph for his tombstone: “M^st unhappy.” Huxley said that at the first reading of Darwin's book he was convinced of the fact that teleology had reeieved its death blow at the hand of Mr. Ihurwin. All the leading scientists who be live in evolut|pn. without one exception the world over, are infidel. 1 say nothing against infidelity, mind you. 1 only wish to define the belief and the meaning of the rejection.

how. I put opposite each other,, to show that evolution ia infeldily, the Bible account of bow the human race started and the evolutionist account ♦of how the human race started. Bible account: **God said, let us make man in our intake. God created man in His own image; male and female created He them. He breathed into him the breath of life, the whole story setting forth the idea that it was not a perfect kanguraa, or a perfect outrang turning. but % perfeet man. That is the Bible account The evolutionist account: Away back in the ages there were four or five primal germs, of aeminal spores from which all the living creatures have been evolved. Go away back, and there yon will find a vegetable stuff that might be called a mushroom. This mushroom by innate force develops a tadpole, the tadpole by innate force Uevelopes a polly wog, the polljwog develops a fish, the fish By natural force develops into a reptile, the reptile develops into a quad imped, the quadruped develops into a

biboon, the baboon develops Into s man. Darwin says that the human hand is only a fish’s fin developed. He says that the human lungs are only a swim bladder showing that we once floated or were amphibious. He says the human ear could once have been moved by force of will just as a horse lifts its ear at a frightful object. He says the human race were originally web-footed. From primal germ to tadpole, from tadpole to fish, from fish to reptile, from reptile to wolf, from wolf to chimpanzee, and from chimpanzee to man. Now, if anybody says that the Bible account of the starting of the human race and the evolutionist aoeount of the starting of the human race are the same accounts, he makes an appalling misrepresentation. * Prefer, If you will, Darwin's “Origin of the S pecies” to the book of Genesis, but known you are an infideL As for myself, as Herbert Spencer was not present at the creation and the Lord Almighty was present, 1 prefer to take the Divine account as to what really occurred on that occasion. To show that thin evolution is only an attempt to eject God and to postpone Him, and to put Him clear out of reach, 1 ask a question or two. The baboon made the man and the wolf made the baboon, and the reptile made the quadruped, and the fish made the reptile, and the tadpole made the fish, and the primal germ made the tadpole. Who made the primal germ? Most of the evolutionists say: “We don't know.” Others say it made itself. Others nay it was spontaneous generation. There is not one of them who will fairly and openly and frankly and emphatically say. “God made it.” The nearest to a direct answer is that made by Herbert Spencer in which he says it was made by the great “unknowable mystery." But here comes Huxley with a cup of protoplasm to explain the thing. This protoplasm, he says, is primal life giving quality with which the race away back in the ages was started. , With his protoplasm he proposes to explain everything. Dear Mr. Huxley, who made the protoplasm?

AO SHOW VUU iUQl. CVViUUUU 19 iubdel, I place the Bible account of how the brute creation was started opposite to the evolutionist's account, of the way the brute creation was started. Bible account: You know the Bible tells how that the birds were made at one time, and the cattle made at an* other time, and the fish made at another time, and that each brought forth after its kind. Evolutionist's account: From four or five primal germs or seminal spores all the living creatures evolved. Hundreds of thousands of species of insects, of reptiles, of beasts, of fish, from four germs—a statement fiatly contradicting not only ■ the Bible, but the very A B C of science. A species never developes into anything but its own species. In all the ages and in all the world there has never been an exception to it. The shark never comes of a whale, nor the pigeon of a vulture, nor the butterfly of a wasp. Species never cross over. If there bean attempt at it, it is hybrid. and the hyorid is always sterile and has no descendants. These men of science tell us that 100,000 species came from four, when the law ail through the universe is that, starting in one species it keeps on m that species, and there would be only four now if there had been four at starting. If 1 should say to you that the world is flat, and that a circle and a square are the same, and that twice two make 15, 1 would come just as near the truth as when these evolutionists tell you that 100,000 species came from four. Evolution would have been left out of the question with its theory flatty contradicting all observation and all science, had not its authors and their disciples being so set on ejecting God from their universe and destroying the Bible that they will go to any length though it lead inem into idiotic absurdity. You see what the Bible teaches in regard to it. I have shown you also what evolution teaches in regard to it. Agassiz says that he found in a reef of Florida the remains of insects 30,000 years old—not three, but 30.QPQ years old—and they were just like the insects now. There has been no change. All the facts of ornithology and zoology and ichthyology and conchology, but an echo of Genesis first and twentyfirst: “Every winged foul after his kind.” Every creature after its kind. When common observation and science corroborate the Bible I will not stultify myself by surrendering to the elaborated guesses of evolutionists.

To anow that evolution is infidel 1 place also the Bible account of how worlds were made opposite the evolutionist's account of how worlds were made. Bible account: God made two great lights—the one to rule the day, the other to rule the night; He made the stars also. Evolutionist account: Away back in the ages, there was a fire mist or star dust, and this fire mist cooled off into granite, and then this granite by earthquake and by storm and by light was shaped into mountains and Talleys and seas, and so what was originally fire mist became what we call the earth. Who made the fire mist? Who set the fire mist to world-making? Who cooled off the fire mist into granite? You have pushed God some $0,000,0(10 or 70,000.000 miles from the earth, but He is too near yet for the health of the evolution. For a great while the evolutionists basted at hat they had found the very stuff out of which this world and all the worlds were made. They lifted the telescope and they saw it, the very ma terials out of whieh the worlds made themselves. Nebula of simple gas. They laughed in triumph because they had found the factory where the worlds were manufactured, and there was no God anywhere around the factory! But in an unlucky hour for infidel evolutionists the spectroscopes of Fraunhofer and Kirehotf were invented, by which they saw into that nebula and found.it was apt simple gas, bat was a compound, and henca bad to be supplied from some other source, uad

that implied a God, and away went their theory shattered into everlastings demolition. So these infidel revolutionists go wandering up and down guessing through the universe. Anything to push away hack Jehovah from His empire and make the one book which is His great communication to the soul of the human race appear obsolete and delusive. But I am glad to know that while some of these scientists have gone into evolution, there are many that do not believe it. Among them, tne man who by most is considered the greatest scientist we ever had this side of the water—Agassiz. A name that makes every into ligent man the earth over uncover. Agassis says: “The manner in which the evolution theory in zoology is treated lead those who are not special zoologists to suppose that observations have been made by which it can be inferred that there is in nature such a thing as change among organized beings actually taking place. There is no such thing on record. It is shifting the ground of observation from one field of observation to another to make this statement, and when the assertions go so far as to exclude from the domain of science those who a ill not be dragged into this mire of mere assertion, then it is time to protest” With equal vehemence against the doctrine of evolution Hugh Miller, Farraday, Brewster, Dana, Dawson, and hundreds of scientists in this country and other countries have made protest. I know that the few men who have adopted the theory make more noise 'than the thousands who-have rejected it. The Bothnia, of the Cunard line, took 500 passengers safely from New York to Liverpool. Not one of the 500 ' made any excitement But after wa | had been four days out, one morning we found on deck a man's hat and coat I and vest and boots, implying that some one had jumped overboard. Forthwith j we all began to talk about that one I man. There was more talk about that j one man overboard than all the 500 ! passengers that rode on in safety. “Why did he jump overboard?” “1 wonder when he jumped overboard?"

x wgnuer u wnen ue jumpeu overboard he would liked to have jumped back again?” “I wonder if a iish caught him, or whether he went clear down to the bottom of the sea?” And for three or four days afterward we talked about that poor man. Here is the glorious and magnificent theory that God by His omnipotent power made man, and bv His omnipotent power, made the brute creation, aud by His omnipotent-power made all worlds, and 500 scientists have taken passage on board that magnificent theory, but ten or fifteen hare jumped overboard. They make more talk than all the 500 that did not jump with them. Thank you, gentlemen, 1 am very much obliged to you. I think 1 shall stick to the old Cuuarder. If you want to j ump overboard, jump, and test for yourselves whether your hand was really a fish's fin, and whether you were web-footed originally, and whether your lungs are a swim blad ler. And as in every experiment there must be a division of labor, some who experiment and some who observe, you make the experiment and I will observe! And as to the human race, so far as mere natural progress is concerned, once there were men ten feet high; now the average is about fife feet six inches. It started with men living 300, 400, 800,900 years, and now 30 years is more than the average of linman life. Mighty progress we have made, haven't we? 1 went into the cathedral at York, England, and the best artists in England had just been painting a window in that cathedral, and right beside it was a window painted 400 years ago. and there is not a man on earth but would say that the modern painting of the window by the best artists of England is not_vr^rthy of being compared with the paiuting of 4£0 years ago right beside it. Vast improvement, as 1 shall show you in a minute or two, but no natural evolution.

Look a't China, where evolution has had lull swing for thousands of‘years uninterrupted by anything except here and there a mission station with this defunct book, the Bible, but through the most of the realm not interfered with. What has evolution done for China? Christian civilization goes in and builds a railroad; they tear it up. For 1,000 years the Chinese nation, where it is not invaded by the Gospel, | has not made one five hundredth mil* I lion part of an iUeh advancement. I They worship the same gods of red | paint. Just as always, they drown the i female children as a nuisance. Just as always they eat with chop sticka i So in India, so in Arabia, so in Turkey, ; so everywhere where the Gospel has I not made an invasion. I tell you, my friends, the natural evolution is not upward, but it is al- : ways downward. Hear Christ's aci count of it. Matthew xt., 19: ‘ Out ol | the heart proceed evil thoughts, murI ders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies." That U I what Christ said of evolution. Give I natural evolution full swing in [ our world, and it will evolve | into two hemispheres of crime, ! two hemispheres of penitentiary, j two hemispheres of lazaretto, two ! hemispheres of brotheL New York ; Tombs, Moyamensing prison, Phila* I delphia; Seven Dials, London, and Co w- | gate, Edinburg, only festering carbun* I cles on the face and neck of uatural i evolution. See what the Bible says | about the heart, and then what evolu* | tion says about the heart. Evolution j says “better and better and better | gets the heart by natnral im* i prorement." The Bible says: “The ! heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Who | can know it?” When yon can evolve | fragrance from malador, and can evolve an oratorio from a bnxzsaw, and ; can evolve fall pipins from a basket o. decayed crab apples, then you can by natural evolution from the human heart develop goodness. Ah! my friends, natnral evolution is alwaya downward; it is never upward.

Quiet Once More Reigns About the Great State, War and Naval Buildings. fERMS OF CAPITULATION AT MANILA. murt Ik. tamad«r Include*—Tha Preeldent Satisfied—1 Iff eel at the Terms— Questions for tho Parts Comunlsstonere —Admirals Sampeeo mad 8«hley Expected la Wnshli «tu. Washington, nug. 23.—Conditions about the great state, war and nary building practically have assumed their normal aspec t. Only a few clerks were on duty in the principal bureaus yesterday, and they did only a few hours’ work. | Acting Secretary of the Nary Allen said last evening that yesterday had been the quietest day in his depart' j ment since the destruction of the Maine. Unimportant Advices. During the afternoon he received 10 dispatches, 14 of which related to the movements of vessels, arrivals or departures, the remaimng two referring to matters of the merest detail. Not a word was received during the day from Admiral Dewey, notwithstanding the fact that cable communication with Manila had again b<Nea opened. The Capitulation of Manila. Among the war officials the terms of the capitulation of Manila, as oabled by Gen. Merritt, was a topic of discussion. No light has been thrown upon the terms by Gen. Merritt. He cabled the terms themselves, expecting probably to forward by mail the construction placed upon them by the American and Spanish officers at Manila.

Whitt the Capitulation Included. Unofficial advices from Manila, received previous to tbe arrival Of the text of the terms, indicated that the capitulation of the city included the surrender of the Philippines, and that Spanish sovereignty over the entire archipelago was, temporarily, at4east, at an end. This view is not sustained by the conditions of the surrender as cabled by Gen. Merritt, and, it may be said, it is not the view taken by the best informed officials of the administration. While some of the war authorities last night were inclined to the opinion that the articles of capitulation, necessarily temporary, and naturally somewhat elastic in their phraseology, might be const! tied to mean the surrender of Spanish control over the entire Philippine group, the prevalent opinion now is that they mean precisely what they say, and that the surrender includes only ti e city of Manila and its immediate surroundings, or “suburbs,” as is expres sed in the articles. The President 1 stlsiled. It can be said authoritatively that the president is quit* satisfied with the terms as made by i cn. Merritt and Admiral Dewey. The r instructions afford them considera ble latitude for individuality of action the president feeling that they would secure the best possible terms in the circumstances. That they hae done so he is certain. Effect ol the Tense of Capitulation. It is pointed out th; ,t the terms of the capitulation of Manila can have but little effect upon tbe action of the Paris peace commission in any event. The protocol as signed by the accredited representatives of the governments of tbe United States and Spain provides for the cessioin of the city, bay and harbor of Manila, to the United States, and leaves to the peace commission to determine the disposition and government of the Philippine islands.

A Question for the Ports Commission. Whether, therefore, Spain, is to re- ; tain her sovereignty over the islands is I a question to be decided by the Paris commission. The action of the commission is circumscribed by the pro* I visions of the protocol, while the terms | of the oapitulation of Manila, it is suggested, can have very little more serious effect upon the commission’s work i than those of the surrender of Santiago.5 Expected to Arrives! Was Us|tos To-Day. Rear-Admiral Sampson and Rear-Ad-miral Schley are expected to arrive in Washington some time to-day. The appointment of the two admirals respectively on the Cuban and Porto Rican commissions necessarily will cause them to be detached temporarily from their present commands. The detachment, it is said, by the naval authorities, will be only temporary. In the absence of Admiral Sampson, Commodore Philip will have command of the squadron of vessels in New York. Repairs on the ships will be pushed with vigor, and as rapidly as possible they will be put in excellent condition for sea duty in either war or peace. Mot Tot Ready to Reorganise oa a Peace Footing. No determination has yet been reached by the naval authorities on the question of reorganising the naval squadrons on a peace footing, in view of the conditions which now confront the United States. During the day few of the officials of the war department were at their desks for longer than an hour or two. A little routine business was transacted, bat the officials generally were taking a long-needed rest. Early in the afternoon Adjt.-Gen. Corbin received the following dispatch from Uen. Merritt: UAKILA. A us 81, 1886-AndrcTAirr-GBXSKAU Washington: MayGen. Otis with steamers Peru and City et Puebla Has arrived: all well; no casualties. Mums. This was the second dispatch received from Gen. Merritt since the opening of cable communication with Manila.
