If it had no force to prevent us from submitting to this necessary war, it furnishes no better ground for our making an unnecessary and ruinous peace. This analogical argument drawn from the case of Algiers would lead us a good way. The fact is, we ourselves with a little cover, others more directly, pay a tribute to the Republic of Algiers.
Of the recognizable plants a number were used somewhat cleverly for their analogical significance. Of these may be mentioned the snowball and hydrangea whose flowers as every botanist knows are sterile, the size of the individual blossom being gained at the expense of loss of stamens and pistils.
The tube of the philosopher, and the celestial telescope, the unclouded visions of heaven will confirm the one class of truths, and irradiate the other. The Trinity is a subject on which analogical reasoning may advantageously be admitted, as furnishing, at least a glimpse of light, and with this, for the present, we must be satisfied.
God perfect holiness justice law universal conformity sin condemnation! Alas! the hapless auditor has no such sense of the force of terms, and no such analogical ideas, as to furnish the medium for conveying these representations to his understanding.
So the Darwinian theory, once getting a foothold, marches; boldly on, follows the supposed near ancestors of our present species farther and yet farther back into the dim past, and ends with an analogical inference which "makes the whole world kin." As we said at the beginning, this upshot discomposes us. Several features of the theory have an uncanny look.
In Genesis we do not, of course, see the myth in its pure form. It must first be rehabilitated. By a comparison of Adam and Noah he incidentally arrives by analogical reasoning at an emasculation of Adam. Thus, Kronos emasculates Uranus by night while he is sleeping with Gaia. Rank works out another kind of rearrangement. He takes the creation of Eve from Adam as an inversion.
No one regards the external similarity of a mouse to a shrew, of a dugong to a whale, of a whale to a fish, as of any importance. These resemblances, though so intimately connected with the whole life of the being, are ranked as merely "adaptive or analogical characters;" but to the consideration of these resemblances we shall have to recur.
He likes perorations used to imitate Punshon a little. He has a good analogical faculty; takes many of his illustrations from nature, and works them out exceedingly well; is a capital explainer of biblical difficulties; is peculiarly fond of the travels of St.
Thus possession alone, and first possession, is supposed to convey property, where no body else has any preceding claim and pretension. Many of the reasonings of lawyers are of this analogical nature, and depend on very slight connexions of the imagination.
CLASSIFICATION, groups subordinate to groups Natural system Rules and difficulties in classification, explained on the theory of descent with modification Classification of varieties Descent always used in classification Analogical or adaptive characters Affinities, general, complex and radiating Extinction separates and defines groups MORPHOLOGY, between members of the same class, between parts of the same individual EMBRYOLOGY, laws of, explained by variations not supervening at an early age, and being inherited at a corresponding age RUDIMENTARY ORGANS; their origin explained Summary.
