Note.—

In the reading of this address I occasionally enlarged on my topic, giving illustration, and somewhat amplifying my arguments. I have no record of these remarks, and I therefore publish the notes I had written before I spoke. As it was a spoken address I did not give all my authorities, but I may state that I consulted the following amongst other works:—Wilkinson's "Ancient Egypt," Records of the Past," Draper's "Religion and Science," White's "Warfare of Science," Lecky's "Rationalism," Trubner's "Oriental Series," the "Hibbert Trust Lectures," Burton's "History of Scotland," etc., etc.
