20 OCTOBER 1888, Page 20

The exegetical articles in the British and Foreign Evangelical Review

for October, are better than the theological and philosophical essays, which contain far too much dull and thin thinking. "An Examination of Determinism," and "Modern Occultism and Scientific Religion,'" have, however, the merit of conscientious- ness. The writer of the paper on Charles Darwin is personally quite just, but Darwinism as a creed deserved a doughtier foeman.
