Vapour expanded by heat can be enclosed in iron cases, and its elasticity utilised ; electrical forces can be gufded along paths made for them by wires ; hard clods can be broken up, and their chemical activities set free for action on the seed-corn : and so on. Here, then, we have Progress : i.e., a setting free of human activity ; and * This lecture was given in 1880.
E 2 52 this Progress depends upon a previous study of the corre- sponding Order. We have to study the laws of weight, the laws... of heat, the laws of electricity, the laws of chemical affinity ; that is to say, the Order pervading the material world, before we can have Progress ; before human activity can effect any result. Our study of this physical Order may be instinctive and empirical, as with the first labourers who tilled the soil ; or it may be abstract and theoretical, as with the men of science who direct our great engineering enter- prises ; but knowledge of the Order there must be. If the seed be sown at the wrong season, or on a soil unfilled, no crop will follow.
