FosslLS.--It il . curious fact that among
oil the fossils OF extinct plants or animals,
no remains have ever yet been found Of man;
tending to confirm the Scriptursl assertion
that this most perfect Of organised beings
WAS not produced till the earth had been rs-
plenished with the plants and animals that
now flourish on its surface. The fact OF this
agreement between the Mosaic record and
scientific discoveries 10 not only Of intense
interest, but strikes ~ the root VI the Atne-
istic portion Of tho eternity Of the world, by
showing . succession Of creations. By bar
mounting tina details Of Genesis with those
Of Geology, finishing touch is put TO one
Of the aobiest and most delightful inyestigA.
