THE LAST SCIENTIFIC HOAX.
It will be reco,lcctcd by our readers that
d few American journals, every one Of
them now wearing the coppcrhead uni
form, not long since fell into unwontcd
ccstacics ovcr the alleged discovery Of a
pre-Adamitic, or fossil, man in the quarrics
Of Abbeville, France, :, They proceeded at
once to argue by insinuat:on, rather than
by orcn assertion, that th- Mosaic account
Of the Creation was untrue; that Man
sprang from divers roots, or sources; that
there could be no such thing as the Unity
Of Races; that the differences OF color
hair, &C., which distinguished the white
man from the negro, were more

duced By what Darwin calls Nat.
ura1 Selection, that these differences
amounted to the differences observed in
Species, and hence TINT the humane and
most Christian idea Of the Brotherhood Of
Man and the Common Fatherhood Of God,
