It might be possible, by this method of reasoning, to establish at least the a priori Fegrnerngy | of the existence of deity, reason- ng from tbe atheists own premises. For bupian intellect, we observe, in its process of development, acquires, even within its own human range, most astonishing power; and this, loo, @ power over matter itself, and over those very same materialistic forces to which, according to the theory, it is indebted for its own existence. Maiter, which gave birth to intellect, becomes tne servant of intellect, and is compelled to yield Its most stubborn elements to tne de- mands of that service. To this, also, who is competent to fix iimits? In the course of av eternity may not matter, itself, develop out of itself—provided it can so develop an in- tellect such as is sometimes seen in the hu- man being—another inteliect to which shail, in the process of eternal ages, come to long altributes truly divine, and which shall, in the exercise of those attributes, be- | come the sovereign of even the material ublverse? Of course, we do not in the least admit the premises of materialism; we ouly alm to point out that were those premises admitted, materialism, as antagonistic of revelation, is by no manner of means establisned.
