For example, how fast can a new species arise from the existing stock

of
species? BRBR

It varies widely. Apparently for humans & other primates it took

millions of
years. For orchids & some other plants which colonize a newly disturbed

site in
the jungle, it may only take a few generations.

What are the mechanisms that effect the event?

Sorry, that can not be explained in a short e-mail. You need to consult

a few
books on the subject, starting with the Origin of Species.

Is natural law but a subset of a Creator?

Maybe. Consult your clergyman.
