GEOLOGY IN REFERENCE TO REVELATION.—
When the theories and discoveries of geologists were first pro-
pounded, they were condemned as opposed to the statements
of the Bible. Upon this point Dr. Mantel!, in his " Wonders
of Geology," says, " There was a time when every geologist
was called upon to defend himself against imputations of this
kind ; but a more enlightened era has arrived, and it is unne-
cessary to allude to the circumstance, excei,st to assure those
• who for the first time are called upon to follow the researches
of the astronomer and the geologist, that in proportion as their
rinds become acquainted with the principles of scientific in-
vestigation their apprehensions of any collision between the
discoveries in the natural world and the inspired record will
disappear. With regard to theology, I will content myself on
this occasion with the following extract from the sermons of
an eminent prelate, the Bishop of London :—' As we are not
called upon by Sci ipture to admit, so neither are we required
to deny the supposition th:it the matter without form and void,
out of which this globe of earth was framed, may have con-
sisted of the wrecks and relics of more ancient worlds, created
and destroyed by the same Almighty power which called our,
world into being, and will one day cause it to pass away.'
Thus-while the Bible reve-ils to us the moral history and des-
tiny of our race, and teaches us that man and other living things
bi:ve been placed but a few thousand years upon the earth, the
pliysial monuments of our globe bear witness to the same
truth ; and as astronomy unfolds to us myriads of worlds, not
spoken of in the sacred records, geology
proves, not by in like manner
arguments drawn from analogy, but by the in-
controvertible evidence of physical phenomena, that there were
former conditions of our planet, separated from each other by
vast intervals of
time, durinc, which this world was teeming
with life, re.°- man, and the animals which arc his contempo-
ra:rie.,, had bs.ien cAled into being."
•
l n= 'WELSH OASTLER.—" "ris pleasant sure to
seR (Y" name in print." At Dolgelley fair, on the 13th
instant, a furious popular ballad was sung about the streets,
against the New Poor System, especially the workhouse, in
R which Sir R. w.
Vaughan, Bart., of Nannau was lauded
among the loading champions of Conservative anti-work-house
notoriety.
The worthy Bart. in passing through the fair,
stopped his earriarre, and for awhile listened (not like the deaf
adder) but with d'elight to the voice of the charmer. It is not
certain' whether he purchased a lot to distribute among his
neighbours and tenantry; but it is a fact that he complimented
the melodious stroller with some portion of the tangibles of his
purse. Deep-rooted prejudice will carry some people to rich-
culo'is extremes, even to puerility. Sir Robert, be it remem-
bet-tic], is a sleeping Member of the Board of Guardians, and a
big, stumbling block, to retard the working of the
system.—
CAr!iarvon Herold.
