The THE ETHICAL SOCIETY. ‘The Moral Growth of Man Considered from a Scientific Basis. The meeting of the Ethical Society in the hall atthe corner of 6thand C streets yesterday afternoon was an odd mixing of scientific men and of eccentric characters. The assemblage was not large at first, but itincreased in size “omewhat as the afternoon advanced. Consid- erable character was given to the meeting by the presence of some well-known thinkers. The feature of the meeting was a paper read by | Prof. Mason upon ethics, in which he very ably treated of the moral growth of man from a scientific standpoint aside from all religion and without reference to it. He quoted the theories of most of the great thinkers of this time and st ages as to the cause of the unsatisfied con- ition of man which prompted him to seek advancement. ‘and fo try abd. reach after higher and better thi Me treated the question in a. lea manner and Suggested that this yearning after the unattain- able was an inheritance of the experience of our Ancestors, and that It might be better studied by adopting a method frequently resorted to by researches, of circulating questions upon the subject for consideration of the whole com. munity. ‘The paper provoked some intelligent discussion, and then the erratic element of the meeting gained the floor. The assemblace was remarkable for {ts looseness of attire and intel- lectuality of countenance. There were three ladies present and two small boys were among. the audience. There were several men with Jong gray beards, a number of intellectual look- ing ‘young men’ and two or three foreigners. Phe, old man with long gray beard and litter: ing eye took a seat apart froin the rest near the stove, which had no fire in it, and on the top of which he hung his” straw hat. When the discussion "began he com- menced to grow uneasy and change his ition until finally he was in frontofthe plat- jorm addressing the assemblage in denuncia- tion of religion, which he termed superstition, and advocating the survival of the fittest, Then there was a sharp visazed, intellectual young man, whose speech indicated him to be a thinker and a student of philosophy, who spoke of the unthinkableness of thoughts with rela- tion tothe mysterious border lands of either religion or science, and thonght that the same uncertainty and unthinkabieness surrounded the speculations in both. There were several others who Joined In the discussion from a scientific standpoint, these generally avolding any reference to réligion, except in the most remote ‘manner. The object of those leading in the movement is to establish a so- ciety for scientific discussion, with the view of advaneing the morals of men, without any ap- s Maple Chamber Sets, Bureaus, Washstands, Wardrobes, Hair and Other Mattresses.

Itis difficult to say exactly whut sortof'a re- ception Gov, Shepherd is entitled to in Wash- ington. If he met his dues, it recognition and honor were meted out to him in the Just ratio of his deserts, he would receive an ovation such talent, his courage, this city is indebted for its beauty, iveness, Its prosperity. He took hold of the ugliest ‘and most unpromising crysalis that ever entered upon its evolution, and his handi- work is seen in the perfected capital to-day. To do all this he put aside a fine private busi- ness; he encountered the animosity and oppo- sition of alithe commercial bourbons in the District; he gave the best years of his life to un- Ai; fhe maintained a. princely hospital. ity, and finally, just as the realities Jab- red for began to grow before his eyes, he be- camea pauper in’ health, spirits and pocket, and had to exile himselt from the city be may be said to have created. He disappeared Into @ remote land, to begin the reconstruction of his shattered fortunes, leaving behind him the work he had set on foot and the plentiful seeds ofa gratitude and appreciation which ure now waiting for the hurvest. He is coming back. His arrival is expected about the 20th. There may or may not be a ublic demonstration on the occasion, But it s safe tosay that every citizen of Washington, and ially he who kuows out of what ma- terial he constructed the present Capital, has done him honor a hundred times in’ his thoughts, and will be proud and glad to pay him tribute now In speech and act.
