Présentation de l'éditeur
The researches of chemists have resolved all known forms of matter into fifty-six separate and distinct, species, which, having thus far resisted every attempt at further decomposition are termed elements, and must in the present state of our knowledge be regarded as simple substances. These Elements united in various proportions and with various degrees of energy, constituted in the beginning the entire mass of the Earth, and presented an Inorganic Nature, made up of vast bodies of gaseous and liquid matter, as well as of many successive series of rock, and of innumerable minerals, amorphous, or bounded by harmonious and symmetrically disposed planes, and constituting those regular figures which we term crystals. At a later period in the genesis of Nature, the mysterious power of Life was called into existence, and beginning perchance with the first cell-germ of the first lichen,- spread at length over the whole Earth. Then innumerable new Forms came into being and every plant, itself built up particle by particle and cell by cell of inorganic matter, became a laboratory wherein chemical decompositions and recompositions were perpetually going on through every step of growth, maturity and decay. At a still late rperiod Life, gathering as it were new energy with the lapse of time, passed from the highest form of vegetable to the lowest form of animal organizations, and thence upward in the scale of being through every varying type and form, till it found in the structure of man the limit beyond which it was not destined to pass.
