Excerpt from The Unity of the Human Race: A Lecture Delivered Before the Members of the Belleville Young Men's Christian Association, on the Evening of the 19th March, 1860; And Now Published at Their Request

In calling attention to a theme which is probably compa ratively new to many in this community, it is a sufficient apology to say, that from its important scientific, religious, and practical bearings, it is daily exciting increasing interest in the great centres of thought on both sides of the Atlantic, and that 1t has already, in many quarters, become the battle ground between Christianity and Infidelity.
