A MAN EEtORE ADAM.

A conglomerate work, to use geological
phrase, has lately been published in Philadel-
pha, entitled The Types of mankind, made
up of contributions from the late DR.. Morton,
Agassz, Usher, Not, and Gifdon. This work
is destined to create something Of a commotion
in the religious world. The idea of the race of
man is totally discarded by the authors, one and
all DR.. Usher makes the astounding state
in this work, that 2 human fossil had been
found in New Orleans in The course Of some
excavations in that city, 10 which p pre- Adamite
age is attributed. According to his authority,
the skeleton of a man, of the CONFORMATION OF
our native Indians, was discovered at depth
of sixteen feet, lying below a succession of our
fossil cypress forests, 10 each of which the age
Of $4,000 years is given. Agassiz is said 10
have accepted this as a fact, and based upon it
his assertion, that man existed upon the earth
at least 10000 years ago. The theologian
must either disprqye this staiement, or be com
