It is the completion of this Intellectually Analytical process which offers the _point of incipency_ for the new and immense Lingual Structure of the future, and the ultimate virtual unification of Human Speech. It may be quite true, as Professor Mueller affirms, that the Instinctual Development of Language--by which _we_ mean the whole Lingual History of the Past, with the exception of our present very imperfect Scientific nomenclatures--has never proved adequate to the introduction of a single new _root_, since the 'Instinct' exhausted itself, as he says, in the nascent effort. But it is a pure assumption, when he supposes, for that reason, that the informed Human Intellect of the Future will not be competent to constitute thousands of them. It is just as legitimate as would have been the assumption in the infancy of Chemistry, that because Nature never _synthetized_ in _her_ laboratory more than a few simple salts, the modern chemist would never be able to produce any one of the two thousand salts now known to him. This kind of assumption is the common error of the expounders of existing science, as contrasted with the bolder originality of discoverers. But, again, though it is true that the _Intuitional_ (or Instinctual) faculty of man has, in a manner, declined, as in the case of the sense of Smell, while the _Intellect_ (the Analogue of the Eye) has been developed, still it is assuming too much to say that it utterly fails us even yet. It remains, like the sense of Smell, an important helper even in our present investigations. Professor Mueller should not, because he may happen to have a cold, affirm that nobody smells anything any more. To explain what I mean in this respect, the following extract may serve as a text:
