Claflin) The influeooe of environment upon every organio being ia no longer a matter of doubl. Tbe reeearohera of reoent years have thrown much light on tbia s abject, and have proved tbat the pro cesses of evolution are very largely de pendent upon tbe conditions of the en vironment. We have passed from con jecture to certainty, and are now able to predioale what changes would ensue under certain given circumstanoes. So many students of pbysioiat phenomena, inoluding men of the most powerful minds, have been continuously engaged in investigating and interpreting tbe laws of nature during tbe last balf century, tbat numbera of her most seoret pages have become more or less an open book. Before thia, however, the vaguest notions prevailed. An ' able writer of the 18th century says: "I am satisfied tbat every country produces people of tbe aame bnlk, features and complex ions, it did two thousand years ago; and whenever a new set of people take pos session of a country, tbey beoome like those who inhabited it before in a very few generations. If ft swarthy Scythian or Tartar, of a abort squat make, flat nose, thick lipa, and little blaok eyes set deep in bis bead, were to be transported into Oermany (aa many nations of the Soytbians were formerly) bis posterity, in a hundred or two of years, would in fallibly be tall. Inaty fellows, of fair complexions, and regular features, at tbe present Germans are. For notwith atanding we all sprang from one origi n.i, our features and complexions, our atature, and even tempera, vary accord ing to the part of tbe world we happen to be planted in. There is something in tbe air, tbe soil, the diet, or manner of life, wbioh makes tbe inhabitant! of one country appear aa it tbey were cast in a different mould from those of the other." This statement, however, was only partially oorreol. Locality alone would not produoe tbeae cbangea, beoanae en vironment, powerful aa it is, is only one faotor out of many in produoing evolu tionary ohacgea, and can deteriorate as well as improve. It may bring about great physioal alterations, may enlarge, dwarf, may metamorphose an organ, distort or beautify a atruoture, bat tbe essential character of the animal or plant will remain tbe aame. Habit and race are equally potent in effecting varla" tions, bnl perhaps tbe most powerful of all is selection. Nevertheless the fact remaina tbat en vironment baa a prodigious infJuenoe in forming pbysicial obaraotsr. It is tbe sams in tbe mental and tbe moral world. Our intellectual culture mainly depends upon our mental environment, aa onr moral culture upon our moral environ ment. If a child of tbe most illiterate parents bs olosely associated from early infaooy witb peraons of oulture, tbe obanoea are many to one that be alao ill be ooltured. He may not bave tbe ide mental grasp of one born from a atook of Intellectual anoeetors, but be will bave certain improved grasp, and lila mlod will be harmonized to tbe tone of theira. There are not many even amongst those of hereditary oulture who rise to great Intellectual heights, but all aoqulr- an intsllsotual tons wbioh adda to tha refinement and enjoyment of life. The love of knowledge, for its own sske, aparl from any notion of utility, ia one of tba most delightful of intellectual passions. And this tbey all possess in a higher or lower degree. Their Intellectu al environment elevates, aa it wars, and spiritualizes every sense. Tbey sse, for iostsoos, witb otber eyes, and bear witb other ears, than those who bave not reoelved tbeir mental advantages. And their preceptions may become ao refined tbat even tbe meanest things of nature become objects of absorbing Intsrest and beauty. Now all tbia is distinot gain, better it may be than wealth or power, for it gives us something wbiob we are alwaya able to enjoy, and wbiob no one can take from oa. Nevertheless, blgb culture msy oo-eiiel witb great vioes, and many intellootual men have beoome abandoned voluptuaries, making their great ac quirement subservient to evil. Thus splendid pbyaioal and mental powsrs may be deatrnotive to tbeir possessors unless Ibey are controlled by oorreol moral feeling. Cooeeqneully a suitable moral environment is nsosssary to en able us to develop tbe blgber faculties of our nature, and to perfect tbs whole mso. A good pbyslotal conatitution ia eminently dealrable; extensive msotal Boqutrementc are also to be diligeotly attain.! an far aa we are able: but sound moral oooatitntioo will do more for tbe real happiness and welfare of tbe individual than ftoythlng elae. The greatest strength and tbe most brilliant talents. If misdirected, shine witb but feeble lustre wheel compared witb tbe sublimity of bigo moral natore. We beat- roucli of atbletios end the higher education. Roth are good, hut neither la tbe highest. Tbe Iroly blgber education la not to be found In any scholastic corrloulum, but resides imme. distely to oar borne, and slrcls of ac quaintances, and more remote in anr general environment. Bat wbiis poysi- eel and mental education Dave ineir gymnasia, .acboole and ; oollsgse, is abundasee, moral edoeatiod la left pretty much lo ebitl for Itself. We put tbe cart before tbe borss, and sipeot both to go on straight aud merrily I Ws soburdioate tbe blgber to the lower, sod are surprised ii tbe higher do not rule. PS FOVDEn Absolutely Pure Let men say what tbey will, but no one is a free agent.' Eaoh is first re stricted by the eternal laws of nature, and next is modified by ever varying oiroumstscoes. Environment fashions -na whether we will or not ; environment controls our will, forma our sentiments, gives us our speeob, our morality, and our religion, olotbes and educates us, and shapes our destiny. Fre-destination is not required tor these things; environ ment is all-snffloient. Thia view, which is surely a correot one, should go far to destroy many errors, one of which is that all delin- ' quency must be punished. We might go fsrther and question if any punish ment is useful, and whether it does not do more harm than good. What our ' criminals aod ne'er-do-wells of tbe com- ' munity want ia not punishment, but pity ; and tbat not the idiotio or senti mental pity ' whioh pets and ooddlea tbem, and does more tor them than for honest people, but tbe pity wbiob is resolute for their reformation or tbeir destruction reformation it it can ba attained, extinction it it cannot. We expeot all our citizens to be well-conducted and honest. But what sort of an environment surrounds the greater part of tbem? Ia it oondootive of manli ness in tbe men or modesty in tbe women? Or is it too often a oirole of vioe and debauohery? Our slums reek with physioal and moral filth, our streets are at the meroy of drunken and foul- . mouthed ruffians and abandoned women, who perambulate them at pleasure and ' bustle virtue from tbe pavement. Shall we flog them at tbe oart'a tail, as of old, or reiorm thenar We cannot ; reauma obaolete punishments, but how can they be reformed? By a change of environ ment; by withdrawing tbem from their old haunts and compelling tbem to earn an honest living in specially arranged homes and in a moral atmosphere. We bave in this country vast number of notoriously Immoral persons, on tbe otber hand we bave a great many intel lectual and charitably disposed people witb nothing to do. Here are the two foroes whlob should ooms togethsr, the vicious and tbe reformative. Paid agents would be useless for this remedial work, ror uoiess done rrom a spirit of pure obarity it could never suooeed. But gentle men and women urged by the divine impulses of tbe good monks and nuns of old days, could wean back many an evil and atubborn nature lo tbe paths of deoency and rectitude, and do what priaonera and paid chaplains could never accomplish. At present things are go ing altogether wrong. The sooial evil is increasing, so are insanity aod legal offeooes. Respect on ths part of tba young for age, for goodness, for tba aex, aod for their superiors, is deoressiog, and tbreatena to disappear altogether. The board schools turn their pupils out with enough of superficial knowledge lo make them conceited and saucy, but with tbe minium of moral training. We need new environments, or rather a purifying of the present ones, and tbeae oan be gained only by general and systematic effort on tbs part of all concerned, aod by parental and patriotic determination to eliminate or suppress, at any cost, the rapidly increasing in centives to svil.
