In the great advance made in science an I art, daring the past century, a wonderful record i a been made, and the achievements re apt to give us the opinion that our learning is something not only phenomenal, but bordering on perfection. When, however we take a proper view of the case we will iieivtvwiU come to the conclusion that we know but very little. The action and effects of the f jjrces of nature are constantly be coming more and more familiar to .is, and it is on this line that mos of our progress has been made ; bu as to the nature of the foices then selves we are still ignorant. The constitution of the matter has been a subject of dispute from the time Aristotle, and it is not too mu h io say that we have no more ab. solute knowledge on this point than had Aristotle himself. Starting irom the supposition that matter is not continous, but made of discon nected atoms Or particles of dt finitrf size and weight, a most beamifui , theory has been evolved which ! perfectly explains all the obstrv d fj chemical and physical phenomena ; ' but what chemist will venture tu maintain the atomic theory as an actual and provaLl fact, in the face of the many difficulties which uch a conception of matter invol ves? The nature of light and heat another question which' is even more difficult to answer than the , constitution of matter. They are I certainly immaterial, possesssing neither weight nor volume. The modern taeory considers them as a force, or mode of vibratory motion in a hypothetical substance called ether. But the existence of the ether has never been proved ; and, in fact, if it does exist, it must possess properties varying widely from any forms of matter with which we are acquainted. All t'.iat can be said is, that, granting its' existence, the phenomena cf light and heat admit cf a ready explanation. Electricity is an ' other substance concerning the nature of which we know absolut ely nothing. To the question, What is electricity ? there is but one answer, We do not know. We uo know what it Will do, and can make it answer, We do not know. We do know what it will do, and cau make it serve us in an infinite variety of ways ; but the most learned electrician is only in I the same position as that of a lit tle child who can move the lever which controls a great engine, but knows nothing of its construction, or how the motion is produced. Chemical affinity offers a multi tude of perplexing questions which j as yet no one can answer. Why does the oxygen of water leave the hydrogen to which it is joined, to unite. with the. sodium which is brought irj contact, with it? Why are the proportion in . which the d fferent elements unite among k themselves fixed and invariable? Why does flourine combine so strongly with . every known ele ment but ; one, . while nitrogen, when forced into combination, con fers an element of weakness upon the entire compound? No one as yet has answered these and in numerable similar questions. But the greatest mystery of all, and no one of which we know the least, is j that of the nature of life and mind, j -There is no appreciable difference --between a mass of dead matter. It is only m the po bilites inherent in the two forms that we can recognize the differ- . I A nttima I ifii.ii-w nn l-i, eiice. aiiiumi f""" " does a crys al ; but no one would be likely to mistake one process cf grOAtlilor tiie other. I"miu ti.ei immense mammoth down to the microscopic bacterium or plant spore, all ara possessed of some thing we call life, which, as long as it exists, possesses the power of reproducing organisms similar to it self. We can, apparently, destroy this mysterious principle, but we can not bring it back ; and it is not probable that, in our present, con dition of existence, we shall ever know auything more regarding it. Some patient student of nature may be able in future years to give us absolute proof of what matter, light, electricity, and chemical affinity really are ; but he who succeeds in imparting to the minutest quantity of dead matter the wonderful vital force will have accomplished a greater and more wonderful wook than all who have preceded him, and one which as far as we can see at present, is beyond the range of human possi bility. What then do we really know of the silent but most potent forces oi nature. Simply nothing. We can evoke their operation and stand like the untutored child in open mouthed wonder to viw the phenomena ; yes we can become, by familiarity with the workings of these forces even imbued with an idea that we can master them, but tiie first step out of the beaten paths of former experiment dem- ostrates our entire ignorance in the premises. Editor Stites, of the State Rights Democrat, who sat on the front row and cheered St. John so loudly during his recent harangue in this city, seemingly imagines j that he and the other apostle from the grasshopper state have given the Hekald an "awful licking." It is a significant fact that Stites has been talking so much in favor of St. John and his third party that in reply to pointed inquiries he is forced to explain in the last issue of that paper that he is not a prohibitionist. Certain prominent democrats will be pleased to hear this. They had even expressed the belief that if he would consoli date ihi Democrat with the War Cry and run a strict third party pa per, it might acquire some in fluenee. SEW 1 D-DAY. Hay for Sale.
