The New Century

Abstract

SCIENCE is cosmopolitan. Electricity abolishes time and envelops both hemispheres with a hew idea as soon as it has emerged from the brain of the Thinker. Mechanics, by its space-annihilating power, has reduced the surface of the planet to such an extent that the human race now possesses the advantage of dwelling, as it were, on a tiny satellite. Both these agencies, then combine to facilitate a rapid exchange of new ideas and commodities, as well as of those who are interested in them in whatever capacity.
