We left to themost abstruet and experienced philosophers the in- quiry how matter could ever have come luto existence, and gave ourselyes to the simpler questfon, whether materlal ore ganized Into a singng-hird or & blos- somiing plant, or fute tha ecreature ealled man, poluts towanl a great Ming catled God, Let us to-lay approach the mosal world and at- tempt to find the best explanation of its exlst~ enee und quality. By moral world {s meant the world not materlal. Iu the materlal world one Includes that which hns length, breadth, thick- ness, und welght; but fn the moral world one includes mental conditions aud products from the conselence to poetry, from the orations of Cicero to the expresslons of friendship among mew, from a polities to a religion. ilow vast {s this moral world! In presciee of it the scat- tered boues of fossil mamnals, the shetls ontha sea's heeeh seen tusignitlant. In the library of Alexandrla there were ones 700,00 voluuies; ad when you remember what klnd of thought extsted fn that day, when Arubin and Palestiue and Greevs and Ttaly wern in Ahele elory, you will conelude that the moral world must have heen vast even I that far-oIf period. 1t to the stores of learning and sentl- ment that lny heaped up on all the shores of the Mediterrancan you now ndd the lbraries und the gallerics anid ien, the dead and lyving excellence of theninatecnth century—an exeel- Jenco whiclt outgrew an fuland sea and wa pelled to reach out around an Atlantk will beeln to realize that the aterial carth s outdona in slze and granacur by this moral dis- play. Learning andull the forms of culture found 18 necessary to move away from the 1it~ tle Mediterranean that ul)ou the two shores of u mighty ocean they might find room for thelr enlarghigaud fmperishable famllles. The thne was coming when lttle peninsulas would not contalu the population of the future or_satisfy the enlarged demauds of philosophy and Chrls- tianity und Mberly. ‘The kingdom of morals has mivanced steadity for thousands of years, having come at last to Loundarivs ahuost Influite. Tho great exhibltions of industry which are Treld ut times among the civilized watfons polnt out only a few shapes of human thought s re- lated to material things. Of the l.muzry, and {yhllosuplxy. and love, und friendship, aind re- izion, that have been pouring forth for thou- sands of years from tho heart, they are paine fully silent. * In no ono of the great “expositions iz there the meditation of Sucrates, or tho drean of Buiplo, or-the tears of Christ, or tho heroism of the martyrs, or the blovd of patrivts. Would there were some temple of vast proportions and sizual beauty, into which all the moral excel- Ienco of man might be gathered, that at one glance the beholder might see the history of the soul. Lut of such a spectaclo there §s no hope. 1t Is uecessary, therefore, for us slmply to cons Tess the greatness of the moral world, and to stand with awe upon the shore of sea tuo wide for our measurement. What docs this moral phenomenon afilem obout u (fod! It does not _aftirm, for the argu- ment for a God 18 not a positive nunouncement, Lutonly an indieation, Thismoral worldsuggests o Deity. And it sugzests with more of proba- bility fhan attends the argument over organized forme. If the painted butterfly, or tho sl nglog- bird, or the sweet-sinelng plait suggests i erc- atlve mind, what must we think of i world full of principles, and traths, and sentiments? What aro the feathers of the ostrich to the poctry of Dante, or the orations of Bossuet, or the' pll- losophy of Bacen, or the musie of Mozart? It hecomes us to inquire, ‘therefore, s to the Cause of the Mornl World, or us to God a8 scen fn all trath, In discussing this themo therewllt bo timo for sugiresting only one proposition, nomely, that truth is 2 mediator between God und man. As the decoratlons (n the flelds and plants and in the heavens were seen In our recent. study to bo cv‘lXunws of & God, 80, with o parallel logle, tho truths of society must be the concealed forin of God,—Is whispered will. 1t the body of man still points to o _muker, however far “back the students of sclence may journey, miuch moro dues the varied truth of man lead us towara a high uri,{lnnl; und henco the proposition that trath is the garnent or wonifestation of o God, Pechaps mankind lovks for the wrong kind of evidenes of o Deity, and s expeeting somo mir- aclo to tell him of "s Belng who Is to by found only In tho perpetusl study nud prac- tles of thu true, tho Deautiful, and the pgood. The study of the true slone may not bring the convietion, nnd the study of the beautlul alene inuy leave the soul iu tho coliness of distrust, but’it may be that In tho three forms of truth, the truo, the beau- tiful, aud the good, soclety may reach n high proof and assurancee of the exlstence of a Heay- enly Father. One thing I3 evident, that the Creator has not seen fit to reveal himself to mun by the ordinary luws of evidence, to the ey, or car, tuste, or touch. Ile has chiosen some other path u[uprruuch toward man and of tnan’s approach toward Him, and hence wun'’s inqulry must always not be after what evidence of u Creator thiere might, could, would, or should By, but shnply what Intfmatfons there indeed are, In this ‘extremity it may bo ailirmed, not dogmatleally, but Inaniringly, that tho teuth of earlllnLln the messenger between God and hu- nunity, Louk first ot tho taste of man for the dis- covery und developiment of truth,” The man of 80 years’ standing, stili fresh in sennto or porch ar umong his felluw-men, reaches out after new Information us though he sttt kuew nothiog, and If Dis coming death affects bim at times with saduess, it is chletly when ho feels what new truths will come to his conntry and to man nfeer Lo shall be culled away from these asso- cintions, He feels, Indeed, that there fs o heaven for him, but he Knows more abtut this world and would love to sco Its great steps toe wird 0 uabler destiny, 'Flis love of the Intlnlte ought to be aceepted a8 o quality of God him- £elf repeating jtself in the souls of His children. The belnz of o God would explain such a taste In wau and in logle that muy bo accepted a3 o cause which will explain most perfectly the most results. But pass from this fusatlable thirat to the quality” of the truths found. In them thero seems a revelation of a Muster, If-tho inere fact of ind will explain the appesrancs on the world of groat princlples of right and wron, 5y and of the beautiful, then . the mental fores the hizher order of brutes, such na the eleplunt, and the dog, amd the horse, ought to ho EBiving signs of productug principles of politics, or so- dety, or property, or rellizlon. ” And yet, nl- though theso creatures have been dving' for thousunds of years in man’s signt, and even amid the advaniages of huwan association, they are glving no tudications of any uppronch toward a pofitics, or a poetry, or n_philosophy, Hencs It would appear thiat o physical development offers no explanution of tho inental phenomenn that attend man, snd belug unable to explain the fucts, Invites us to roturn to o personal God, (1.)
