Victorian England saw itself as the pinnacle of western civilization, a triumph of reason and science, after a long climb from primitive origins. What do you see in Utterson's attitude, as he puzzles over this mystery, that makes him a good Victorian?

I'm not sure what you mean, but Utterson's actions would be considered those of a Victorian gentleman. He worries about Jekyll and addresses the problem, though he is not invasive and respects Jekyll's privacy.
