Doxs it not seem strange to you that there should ever have lived one who would assert that you who sit here to-day are nothing real; that this college does not exist in itself, or if it does, you cannot know of its existence ? Who tell you that when you rise, breakfast and attend to the various duties of life, you really do not perform these acts at all, or if you do, you have no certain knowledge of the facts. Yet such men have existed, and even now exist. Not only have they asserted these contradictions, but they have lost many sleepless hours and wearied their brains in the endeavor to establish by the aid of rea- sou conclusions which, in the light of rea- son, are absurd: The doctrine held by such philosophers (#) is called Idealism. Idealists have been divided into various }classes according to the various theories which they advance for explaining the phen- omena of creation. Some tacitly admit the reality of existence, but hold that those real existences are not the objective phen- omena which excite our sensations. From one point of view, these may becalled Real- ists; but as they deny the objective exist- ence of what is immediately perceived by the senses, they are Idealists, for they create a world outside the real. Berkeley, who flourished about the first of the eighteenth century, taught that the uui- versal and spiritual are the proper objects of reason, but that the existence of the cor- poral world was problematical. Fitche re- jected the theory of matter existing in it- self, and created the system of subjective idealism, according to which the subject, their king—the mind—produces the ap- pearance of the so-called sensible world by a mode of activity grounded upon its es- sential nature. These may be considered the leading divisions of idealism, viewed from the idealist’s own standpoint. In treating the matter however, we shall find that all these distinctions which are m-re outworks, vanish according as the idealist is driven from one position to another, until all merge into one stupendous absurdity — pantheism. Next. Pantheism tested in the crucible of logic, zields nothing more or less than absolute scepticism. For the more intelligent consideration of our ques- tion, it may be well to state distinctly what we mean by real existence. The phil- osopher says it is matter actuated by form. Man, for example, is corporal matter actuated by the form—soul ; and he is man because he participates humanity, which is the formal result of union between soul and body. This humanity he holds in common with all other human individuals. The may differ in stature, features and color. They each have an individual body and soul. Nevertheless they all partici- pate the common form—humanity—and ihus belong to the species—man. This common form which is fuund in every in- dividual of the same species, and by virtue uf which it is placed in that species, is call- ed a universal. The attributes may vary, but the common, universal form remains unchanged, When we seek scientific knowledge of man we consider not the variable accidents of color or features, but the universal and unchangeable humanity. This is what is meant by say- ing that the objects of science are universal, constant and invariable. In view of this notion of real existence, we come to the consideration of Idealism in ite first form. Kant, a German of the evighteenth century, may be considered the mudern exponent of this ancient error. His doctrine in a nutshell in this ;--There may or may not be objects outside our mind as to their matter, but the form by which they are actuated comes from our mind. In other words, our mind makes the object what itis. Hence, all the objects of know- ledge are contained within the limits of the thinking subject. Centuries ago, Prota- goras expressed the same doctriue, saying ** Man's mind is the measure of all things.” What reasons does Kant advance for so strange a theory? ‘*In the objects of ex- perience,” says he, “‘the universal and necessary must be distinguished from the singular and contingent, which are and pass away. Thus in John there are the forms substance and humanity, but also a something else which is neither substance uor humanity, namely, John. John dies, but substance and humanity do not perish. These are universal aud necessary, and of these only can we have science.” But whence these forms! *‘ Not from the ob- jects,” says Kant, ‘* because only by being united to them does the object become anything. If they come from the object they must have been always in the object, and hence it would have been from all eternity what it 1 now. Whence, then, do they come? From the subject think- ing—the mind. Then the universals come from the mind ; and aa of universals alone wecan have science, allthe objects over knowledge are bound within the limits of the subject thinking.” Ingenious looking, is it nut? Well we shall see. Why does Kant hold these universal forms to flow frum the mind? Because they could not come from the objects themselves, these objects being singular. But what is the very subject thinking but individual, mu- table and singular. Hence, by his own reasoning, they cannot come from the mind. Very good. But suppose, for sake of argument, we grant him they come from the mind, the question arises: ‘‘ How are they in the mind? Oaly two ways possi- ble. They may be placed there by some- thing else, or they may come from the very nature of the mind. If the first, then those universal forms come from something which is not the mind,—his whole fabric crumbles away. He cannot grant this. Then they come from the mind itself ; that is, from its intrinsic nature. If so, they must either be modifications or impressions arising from itself, or they are the mind as it is in itself and nothing more. If the first, then, since of universals alone we have science, and since those universals are modifications of the mind, we must know them as they are, and hence have truth of them. Hence, whatever appears to our mind is true. But contradictions appear to our mind, therefore contradictions are both true. This is absolute scepticism Now take the other horn of the dilemma, viz., that those universal forms are the very mind itself. If there is nothing but the mind it cannot have come from anything else, Hence it always was unchangeable aud infinite—in other words, the human mind is God ; and as, according to ideal- ism, it is the principal of all objectivity, all objects are God. This is Pantheism. Now, I fear | have been dull, heavy and unintelligible. If so, the Idealist is to blame. The path of truth is direct and simple. The merest child, guided by the light of faith, comprehends more of the depth of the power and the wisdom of God than the darkened mind of the most inflat- ed Idealist in the world. Let him who would search the wonders of God’s crea- tion bear in mind the warning of St. Thomas a Kempis, ‘*Melior est humilis rusticus qui Deo servit quam philosophus superbus qui, se neglecto, cursum cceli considerat.” (Better by far the humbled peasant who serveth God than the proud philosopher who, neglecting himself, con- templates the course of the heavens. But we cannotendhere. Donot, however, look dismayed. As the surgeog says when about to repeat a painful experiment on some wounded member, **The next will not be so bad.” It is pure Idealism, and, sooth vo say, there isa dash of the artistic about it, You have often, oh patient hearer, dur- ing the evenings of our long voluptuous vacation, sat inthe solitude of your own room, aud closing your eyes to the objects around you, suffered imagination to rvam at large among the beautiful forms that flow from the swelling storehouse of memory. ‘Mid these glories doth she wander like some princely page in a royal garden cutting the most exquisite beauties, and combining them into offerings for the prince’s ‘‘taste;’ you are in the ideal ——_ some real object which is not itself and he fs with us, or he must say that the ‘“‘Ego” is itself everything, and this is Pantheism. But according to Pantheism, everything is God, Hence all modifications of our intellect are modifications of God, and assuch, true. But our intellect experiences contradictory modi« fications. Hence contradictories are hoth true. This is absolute scepticism. Now let us draw ourselves away from the cloud of dust and cobwebs which the demolition of every musty fabric engenders, and see what there is of real truth in God's resplendent creation. We have established the facts of our own existence and of the existence of other objects independent of us, representa- tions of which are flashed on our intellect by the senses. Then one’s cognitions of objects depends on the existence of the objects, Therefore we are finite. Being finite, we depend on something else for existence. Here then is a series of contingent causes and effects, all of which must depend on some- thing beyond which nothing can be conceived. That something is God. From God, then, all things proceed as from a first principle, and accoiding to His infinite truth has be created them true. And according to the inborn nature of man he longs for truth. But that same inborn nature tells him that there are myriads of objects existing in the world about him and that he spprehends them and dis- tinguishes the one from the other. Hence when he affirms these things, he affirms truth. Whatistruth? It is a conformity of the intellect with the object. When I apprehend «n object as it is I have trath about it. But the nature implanted in us by the Infinite Truth tell us that we a hend myriads of things as they are. erefore, we have myriads of truth. After all, there is no beauty in idealiem for there is no ty outside of trnth. Who would divest himself of all the im, asad of splendor and harmony which iod's beautifa! creation pours into our souls, and walk through the world as a ghost amid tombs, chesred by no sound but the echo of his own footfalls? Who, gazing on these eplendors is so blasphemous as to assert that his own mind has created them all? Ths builder digs down to the solid rock and there builds. But the Idealist plucks up and casts aside that rock and rears his structure in the void. world. Suppose that im this delirious state of intellectual intoxication the cry of ‘‘fire” smote upon your ears, and the blending glare of flames transfixed your eye; and the black rolling breath of the fiend swept around about you, would you not in- stantly leap as from destruction? Why start thus wildly? Have you not, perhaps even now, been hanging in fancy over the crater of Mount Vesuvius and gazing with fixed eye into its seething depths, while red hot rocks and scalding lava ruled through all the buried air? But you aay *‘Man,art mad?” Do you not see the flames thrust their rapacious hands into every nook ahd cranny as seeking for their prey. I was but in ideal danger then; but here are the real. Fiy! fiy ! as you value your life! And dy you would, no matter what your philosophical tenets. fhe character of whom we are now about to speak, did he act according to his avowed principles, should have sat still enjoying the dismal splendor of the movement with the same internal delight which he experienced before his reverie was thus rudely interrupted. What prin- ciples, you ask, can lead to such conelu- sions? They are simply these: ‘All objects of experience. Everything that we see or touch—everything, in a word, which in any way affects us—comes from our mind. Ideas make up the whole of Physical Crea- tion.” Now, it would be a beautiful thing to lap ourselves forever in the soft delights of the ideal,and never,never know the inconveniences of the real. I do vow I shall embrace this theory if it be at all tenable. Then, let us see. I know that 1 exist myself, and I know, moreover, that there are other things existing which are independent of me. Hic areamus murus est. re stands a wall of brass. [ cannot go to the Idealist. How then shall I bring the Idealist tome? The Idealist him- self affirms that he exists. How could he deny it? He says ‘‘I feel,I perceive,” but what I feel and perceive are but ideas from my ows mind. Now our very inmost nature tells us that our senses bring us truth. I meeta friend who has just returned from a long absence. grasp him by the hand, and, looking into his face, I ask him of the wenders he has seen, or recall the memories of bygone years. Every impulse from the depth of my eoul urges the truth upon me,—“* This man is truly here.” I cannot persuade myself he is nothing but my own idea. Thousands of times during his absence 1 long for his return, If the powers of my intellect, my fancy, or my will could have placed him there as he now stan Is before me he had been there. But 1 could not do it. Then there he stands independent of every effort of my nature. Say then he is my idea if you will, but every voice in all this great creation proclaims aloud against it. In the light of this argument destruction threatens the Idealist, For if he still holds his theory he must grant that his mind has aot the power of determining itself to this or that idea. If it could have determined itself he should nave continually enjoyed the com- panionship of his friend. Well, he does yield this point, as he must, and consider a some- thing else, moreover, which no one can with- hold, viz., that things appear to me as coming from without. The representations may vary according as the sensible objects vary, but from the cradle to the grave there is the one unvarying impulse to refer these represent- tions to real objects. Henceno man can deny that impulse without casting aside his nature, and this no msn can do. But we have proven that the mind is of itself undetermined. How, then, is it determined to this or that particular representaiiion, There is the gulf he cannot cross, He must at this point either cast aside the web of sophistry in which he endeavors to wrap his intellect, and correspond to the truth of his mature, or make one more frantic oaward leap and bea Pantheist.
