COMMUNICATED.


The following selection may be interesting to
some of the many readers OF the Gazette 10
these days of false philosophy, &c.:
ANTIQUARY.
History BEFORE NoAH-There is one pc
culiar feature of the record of the church Of
the first dispensation which it is important to
understand and see in its bearing as clue to
the inspired history Of the church. This Is
the remarkable longevity OF the human race at
that period-so great that two single lives,
Adam and Mcthuselah, cover the whole dis.
Densatou between creation and the Hood. and
indeed overlap two hundred and forty. three
wears beside This fact explains to us how t
was that even by natural means the history OF
that remote period might easily be carried
down to point within reach of the era of re-
corded history. It's one of the common mis-
takes of men, in looking over the sacred his
tory, to dwarf down the whole history OF the
race anterior to Moses to single hazy, lndetl,,
mite point, and therefore to imagine that all
sacred history must be peculiarly hazy and III
definite, if not purely work OF Inauguration;
Now little attention to the record OF tins
chapter will correct that error 1t will be seen
that but two lives intervene between Adam and
Abraham-these two with Adams covering
the half of the whole era between creation and
coming OF CnrlSt, SO lllaC III iact tlie eFCusS vi
the fail and death of Abel were really no further
back in history to Abraham, than are the events
of the capture of Quebec by Wolfe in 100, to
the school boys of the present time IN our COUP
try. Even supposing you had no history of the
defeat Of Braddock, if your fathers tell you what
their fathers reported to them from the eye
witness of their fathers who were actors,i would
be tolerably rsliable testimony. Yet precisely
such is the information which Abraham and
Job had of the transactions in the fall. Shem
could tell Abraham, with whom he was con-
temporary One hundred years. nearly what La;
mech, his grandfather, had reported to him, and
who lived also contemporary with Adam fifty
years; nay, if you please, what Methuselah
had told Shem after being contemporary with
Adam two hundred and torty-three years.
Thus it will be found that the first two thous-
and years of the world history is reduced to
the testimony of but two Of our generation
testimony of grandfather to the son. Even as
late as the birth of Isaac there stood Shem to
report and testify what Lamech and MethuSa-
ah had told him from Adam.
