Hughes argues that humans and the natural world are not separate entities, but rather a part of a larger system that is constantly adapting and evolving.The book is divided into four parts, each of which explores a different aspect of adaptation. The first part examines the concept of adaptation itself, and how it relates to the natural world. The second part looks at the adaptation of plants and animals, and how they have evolved over time to better fit their environment. The third part explores the adaptation of humans, both physically and culturally, and how we have adapted to different environments and ways of life throughout history. The final part of the book looks at the future of adaptation, and how humans can continue to adapt and evolve in the face of environmental challenges.Throughout the book, Hughes draws on a wide range of scientific and philosophical sources to support his arguments. He also includes numerous examples from the natural world, as well as from human history, to illustrate his points.Overall, Adaptation: Or Mutual Fitness Between The Order Of Things And Man is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between humans and the natural world, and the importance of adaptation in ensuring our survival and well-being.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

An incident illustrative of a poltical canvass among soldiers was one of the occurrences that soon attracted my attention An election for Confederate congressman for the District of Virginia, which now comprises a part of the State of West Virginia was under way; the candidates were Charles W. Russell formerly of Wheeling and a Dr. Kidwell of, I believe, Clarksburg. The district was entirely in the Union lines and hence the only voters were Confederate soldiers and refugees. Dr. Kidwell had headquarters at the Ballard House in a room opening immediately on the ladies' entrance on Franklin Street at the corner of Thirteenth and it was an occasion to make one cheerful to see the Doctor who was tall and slender smilingly dispense good cheer from numerous decanters to the many refugees and a few soldiers who sought him. Mr. Russell also boarded at the same hotel, but he evidently felt pretty secure, as he made no effort to entertain and his room was on the upper floor. This canvass was in marked contrast with another that went on near the same time at the Powhatan. An election for the State Legislature was near and the candidates from the legislative districts in what is now West Virginia met the same conditions, namely, their territory was exclusively in the Union lines and the voters were refugees and soldiers. Several of the candidates boarded at the Powhatan and the meetings in the Congressional candidates room that were more formal by reasons of the callers being from divers sections, now in the case of the Legislative candidates became more sociable and nightly refugees and soldiers from the same local section assembled and intensely enjoyed the gossip that went on in a dense cloud of smoke from tobacco pipes.

""The Ideal Theory of Berkeley and the Real World: Free Thoughts on Berkeley, Idealism, and Metaphysics"" is a philosophical work written by Thomas Hughes in 1865. The book explores the ideas of the Irish philosopher George Berkeley, who believed that the world we perceive is nothing more than a collection of ideas in the mind of God. Hughes argues that Berkeley's idealism is flawed because it does not account for the existence of a real world outside of our perceptions. He suggests that there must be some objective reality that exists independently of our minds, and that our perceptions of this reality are limited by our senses. The book delves into the nature of reality, perception, and the relationship between the mind and the world. It offers an insightful critique of Berkeley's idealism and provides a thought-provoking exploration of metaphysical concepts. Overall, ""The Ideal Theory of Berkeley and the Real World"" is a fascinating and engaging work that will appeal to anyone interested in philosophy, metaphysics, and the nature of reality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
