CORRESPONDENCE CONDENSED.
A. 0. Robertson sends us a. letter which is far too long for publication in its entirety, in criticism of an articlo by Mr Braithwuito in our isno of June 20 on Science and-Religion," Our correspondent advances the following propositions:-,-(1) Religioti ig tho parent adn fundamental origin of all soionce. this being both verified and exemplified by primeval man's worship of sun, moon,' star, and various terrestrial objects; (2) all scientific research is a fractional part of tho roHox or mirror of the Almighty Triune God's infinitude, the centre of which is anywhere and tho limit nowhere. Therefore, in oonscquenoc, tho finite mind of man invariably becomes befogged in reaching out of its depths into tho great and unlimited spheres of the unknown. However, as scieneu advances in all its various branches, it beautifies the blessed truths of tho Holy Scriptures and enables man moro fully to behold through the eye of faith tho unspeakable lustre and splendour of tho Triune God.
