The Unity of Mankind; Have all men, in all ages, and in all countries, de acended from Adam, as their common progenitor Although this question is one which ought to come home to every man's bosom, its discusaion hitherto seems to have inter. ested only men of learning, and has been soon dilated through the medium of such books and periodicals as are not accessible to the many. it is a question to which; it might have been supposed, there could be but one response from those who recognize the Divine authority of 'the sacred Scriptures. And yet, genie of this class, among them one of the most learned men of our age, openly, advocates the doctrine, that mankind are not all derived 'from the same original, stock I Peyrerins himself, whose work the follow lng chapter was designed to refute, professes to be a Christian, and in ,the discussion of this question, deduces arguments from the Scriptures, as well , as,from.,profane.history, and tititttral The subject being one which touithes the condition d every huinan solid[ 'there is naturally a desire - thatthe arguments, pro, and con., should be preseitted to the public in a plain and popular style.' As. iontri. button toward the'gratifkation of so reason able a desire, and afthe same time to show to the curious how the subject was handled nearly a century ,since, by a European savant, I send' you, in homely English, a a chapter from a work in latin entitled, A System of Dvntatic Theology, by P. M. Garzaniga, .erOfessor anthe' University of Vienna ; published in 1781. Although a man of learning, and a Ito. man Catholic, Gazzanigestrain of argument is such as may be readily oomprehended by readers of very moderate education, and is not, in many things, at variance with the views of the :,generality of Protestants., 11. CHAPTER. XVI. in whieh the aystem of the Pre-Adamitea is ex planed, and refuted. § 118. Isaac Peperius, in the year 1656, published a book, entitled, g 4 Prae Adamilmse," in which he contended that there were two distinct races of men, the first of which was referred to by. Moues in the first chapter of Genesis, the other in the second chapter ; that in the second chapter the creation of Adam was _described, but in the first; the creation of another man,, many yeari,nay,many ages before; and that from this last named creation the Sentiles had - their origin, and that the Jews were the posterity of Adam. Nevertheless, this erroneous opinion, to. gather with Calvinism, which also - be had eaponsed, he has since solemnly. renounced at Rome, before Pope Alexander VII. § 114. It is easy, from the Scriptures themselves, to refute this wild imagination For Noes clearly intimates that he spoke of the very tonne man in. the Carat, as in the second chapter, with, Ibis difference only, that in the second chapter the narrative is fuller and more particular. Then in the fifth chapter, repeating what he had said in , the Arst, he ,plainly declares that Adana. Was. the first man made by God; his words are, " This is the book of the generation of Adam, in the day in which God created mat t he made him in the, likeness of God,- male ,and female made he .thera, and bleised them, &o." To this, add what is said in chap ii : 5, " And there was no man who should till the ground," which would , have been false, on the hypothesis of the Pt e- Adamites. Lastly, in Genesis iii : 20, Eve is called "the mother, of all living."- §ll5. Further, this story of the , Pre. Adamites is fairly exploded by otherSorip• taro testimonies. In The Wisdom of Solomon x ::1, Adana is called ." the first formed father of the world." In Acts 26, BM says of God : "And be bath made of one, all nations of men, to dwell on all the fUce of the earth." It is coolly, remarked by Pererins, that in the original Greek the reading is ex enos aintatoe, of one blood; or as he interprets of one material, or of one nature. But in our common way,of speaking, we fay those are of one blood ,who descend from the'llatne stock. Moreover, in the most ancient Greek codex of Aleiandrlay the wall translated blood is wanting, as it is also in the - Latin. § 116. Lastly, a third argument against the Pre•Atiaraites, and that of no small im port, is drawn from original Mn, which, our faith teaches us, passed 'front Adam upon all. mankind ; but this dogma of our religion . must fall to the ground, if there W . Cie 'other men of a different origin; for 'not by an outward imputation' only, did this.. guilt of Adana pass upon all wee, as Peyreriuka-would have it, but it in truly and really,montraoted by every ono, and we are all Vora sinners, and the children of wrath, because roe have all sinned in Adam. Nor frilly, does that avail which,some have imagined, to elude the force of this argument, that all the Pre-Adamites perished in the flond, that only the race of Adam survived, and that, therefore, it might be truly said, all wen are born tainted with original sin. No, I say ; for first, our faith teaches that the 'antediluvians were infected with this original taint, even as-we also are. And we must remember that a great pbjeet, of the Pre Adamites is, to explain the existence of antipodes, and of men of different colours, to do which, they must bring down the Pre- Adamite lineage to the postdiluvkan ages. § 117. To these arguments, driwn frOm sacred writ, we add another" of - ne little weight, from the - tradition which has always prevailed, and still prevails, even among heathen nations, of .one father of all, men. By the testimony of Voltaire, (a man not, to be discreditedwhen he says anything fa4or able to religion,y to Vedor, in • the ritual of the ancient Brahmins it is taught that the first man was Ademus, and the , first woman Proorita, which word, in their language, signifies life, and life with the Reb_rews is Bva. Also, in the history of the island Of Cey lon, mention is made of Adam, se_ the, first man created by -God. And so, for the, most part, in other lands, as Radius, with pro digious learning, shows in. Densonetiat. Eoan,gel. Thus would we overturn the false doctrine of Feyreritts. - § 118 He brings an argument from sacred history_ According to the Afosaic ac count, he observes, herbs, treee,ankinimals of every kind were created-14 God over "the whole surface of the 'earth, which would have been needless if 'there were no men in existsnce but Adam: Moreover,in Genesis iv : 2, Abel is called a keeper,of sheep, and Cain a tiller of the ground; but Abel could not protect the fink from 'thieves, if there were no other men`; nor could Cain culti vate the fields, unless he had ploughs and other implements; to make which, artifices would' be required. Again : those Words of God to Cain, - in Genesis iv : 7, are to be • noted, "If thou doest,not well, sin lieth at, ;the -door," (in foribus :) fares signifies courts of justice, which in Eastern countries were erected at the gates of 'cities. The - existence of courts of justice implies the existence of many men, as judges, and persons to he judged. Furthermore, the, language of Cain to God, supposes_the sarne,thing : "Every one that findeth me shall slay met" to avert this danger, "The Lord set a Mark ujionf , Cain, list any finding him" should' kill-him." All these' things; sips Peyrerius, plainly show that the Rastern quarter of the world, was even then ,densely inhabited by men, who could not 'all have descended from Adam. § 119. Bat these arguments are without weight; and if' indeed the first_ were, valid, it would follow that the whole ,world had been filled with men from ,the beginning, which the Pre.A.deinites 'themselves Weuld not admit. As, therefore, there are even DOW some regions covered with herbs, plants and animals, in which, nevertheless, no { men are found, so nothinglinders but that plants and aninialima,y havenxiste'd froui the begin ning, when there were but two of the family of man. `2l § 120. And when Abel is spoken of as • a keeper of sheep, that care over his flocks is referred to, Which itis the custom to employ in feeding them, even though there Should be no danger from 'robbers, or beasts of prey. In, like manner, when Cain , h is ,called a tiller of the ground,,it is not_,, implied that he possessed that whole equiPment of im plements of husbandry, which were 'after wards contrived by. men,..but only such as their limited in those primitive times suggested: § 121 As to the argument from the word foribus, translated door. This word does not signify the courts of justice' placed at the gate of ,the city" but rather that re morse of ''conscience with which Cain was tormented after the murder of his brother, and with which all the Wicked are torment ed, who "Night and: day carry in their,; bo soms their own comer. § 122. The last 'difficulty is 'solved by observing that Cain might have feared his brothers and their descendants, who ,even then began to be greatly 'multiplied. - For, the murder of Abel is believed - to have - oc curred in the ,one hundreth, and thirtieth year of Adam,-as the Scriptures .not ob. sourely, indicate in the fourth chapter' of . Genesis, when it said, that Abel havingbeen killed, Adam knew his wife, and- she, brought forth petit; iii the 'place of Mur dered Abel, and inuluiptsr v 5.3, it hi said,- "Adate, lived 130 years, and hegat son, - and called his name Seth."' But in thei space of 130: years,• men might have <in-. creased to-many thousands, for in,the lapse. of 215, years, , which the . sons of' Israel remained in Egypt, they in creased to more than'oo,ooo souls Cain might`therefore have feared his brothers and their, descendants.' And hence.tilso, we may understand how it might be said in thesaine fourth chapter,-. that Cain had built a City, Which he called by the nine of his s son""Reigich. Slime, chronologists think this-oedurred in tlie- - Ave_ hundredth year of the world. ,--- § 123„ That, seems, at first blush, to re quire a more careful explanation, which V:by - rerius objects froth Rem. v : 13, where Paul • says, "For until the law,An wan in the world : but sin is not-imputed,where there is no law. Nevertheleas, death reigned from Adam to 'Noses, even over them' that had not sinned ' after the skein tnde of Adam's transgression; { who -is the figure of , him that was to come.", ,From this he argues.: !This law, of which the- Apos tle speaks can be no other than the, law given to Adam ; but before the giving of this law, it is said there was sin in the'world: therefore, there were men who Were sinners before Adam. - • , § 124.

The meaning, therefore; of these' words 'of' Paul is, that Fin had always reigned from Adam to Moses, although some actual sins before the law of Moses, were • not imputed, by reason of the want of a perfect knowledge of the law of Nature. Renee, the same Apostle, chap vii 7, says : " I had not known sin but by the law, for I had not known lust, except the law had said, thou shalt not covet." -' That which followsy" But death reigned from Adam, to Moses ' " fiefs that spiritual death and eternal damna tion had reigned over men even - Were Moses. Andlastly, *hen the Apostle adds; " ,Even over those who had 'not . sinned according to the similitude of- Adam's transgression,' 'he manifestly means that original sin' brings death even upon those who have not, after the similitude of Adam's transgreasim 'been guilty of actual sin. • I; S. Thornes, Estius, and other interpreters, offer various explanations of this - ,diffieult passage. § 125 After these arguments drawn from holy writ, Pe - pit:Ana proceeds , thus to argue from profane history. It is evident, says he, from the chronology of: many. ia. dons, that the world• is much: more' ancient than Adam., The Chaldeans number four hundred: and seventy `ttionsand years, and thellabylorrians, the Chinese i the Seythiens, and the Americans, boast of a much longer period of existence, , • It would not be worth while' to spend r time in yeftiting these fahnlatistaterneds; which, bYr the philosophers - of LthOse' Very - nations, are_ treated• with 'ridiculef,:_and contempt, Cicero, Lib. I, de Senectu,te, speaking .of the Chaldeane, says,f , Let us pronounce guilty of folly,vanity, or ignoranoe,,,those who com prise in theirchronieles four - hundred and seventithousand years." The same might be said with equal justice of. other, nations. -- Fide S. Augusti4e, 18, Be at. Dei. Many however. sapprise, that with these nations, yrears did net consist oflivelie months each, - but - of fewer, nay, perhaps, not even of so many days. But it is trifling to pursue thispatter fur ther, as it is assuredly knew% by the learned, that no authentic decurrients ex.*, which not of later date than the epoch which are not of later atm, epos. of Motses; ,for thief yrillue, Alex ,in his *esti:rook against Nian,proves the truth of Mosaic history. ' § 126. "The AntiPodes afford another foundation for the argument of the Pre- Adamites, 23 it cannot. be explained - how men could migrate to, their region : of the earth,, before the dieceveri'of the magnetic needle: Henee; many orthe Fathers, - as S.

Nevertheless, although we do, not Inniv the way by which men could pass teparts' of the earth opposite to us, we may not infer that the Antipodes were not the deseetid- - , cuts of Adam, since undeniable 'arguments prove that they were, An almost infinite , number of things are held to he true, the reason nfaiiner,ef cora.- prebend, That wide:his certain and known,' is not to be subverted by that which is un-' certain and unknown: '% If some the Fathers.have been deceived-in this matter, their error is venial, and is common toLthem' with many profane anthers,. ' - §' 121 . . Tbe‘last argument of Pererins,- to refute the doctrine that allmp proceed from Adam,,as their progenitor; is founded on the diversity which is found to _ exist among nations, with reference 'especially to the Ethiopians antfother nations of Africa,' who are black, have flat - noses; and 'a kind of wool in place of hair; ik'is`.boastfully demanded was. Adam a white man or a black man ? If white, whence are -the blacks ? if black whence are the Whites? 'Then, he adds, there'have been "giants ort the earth; tis we- all knotr; the Scriptures frequently speak of them; and travelers tee.: tify that they; are'yet found, and that onthe other hand there are other nations of very small stature, whom they Call pigmies.' These could not both have had their origin in' Adam. ' • ' • Again, a still greater difference among nations may be observed as to acuteness of intellect, ,moral. disposition, and mapper of life, as in, the Hottentots,,,the leipones,..the Canadians, irk* ittipidity is inch that they might properly be classed with 'bidees rather than with men. , Lastly, he.says, there are various kinds of monsters, as those mentioned by, Augustine,, 'l6, De Civitag, Ilea. 04. - 8, *en' having one eye in the middle of the - li;re. head, or haying the feet turned backward; or in whom, having no necks, their eyes are set ,in the shoulders, or whose heads. are 'shaped like the head of the dog, and ;#lll3 are thence called Oynoceplkali. These,' netertheless, and other things which infidels are accustomed ,to en large upon, are,not snob forcegut.to:over., turn the authority of Scripture.. As. to the color of the Ethiopians, that "may arise, from a rariety of causes, especially'from the intense heat of their climate, from' ekhala. Hone arising from the =surface , of, the. earth, or from, effluvia proceeding from ' mines of gold; silver, iron, and sulphur. By these agencies, it is belieyed, has been brought about e. gradeal change of color ;in the in hatitante of that region," first broWn or tawny, : then to blackish, and : afterward to black. This appears from manytestimonies. According to Pliny, 'the further we recede from the - centre of Ethiopia,' the lighter is the color' Of - the inhabit4nts. The Lisitani who emigrated thither, after many years, were tinged with the same color. Lastly, that all theie nations have -de scended from one, ,and the same stock, is, shown by, the„ sameness of their essential, chiripteristiei ;I:there is no total difference eicept in iertain'accidents of their nature, namnly, in the color, 'the hair, and the features of the Ace. 129. That which is addekconeerning giants and pigmies, admits an, easy solution, for the human frame is not bound to any determinate size, and so we daily 'see amongst ourselves some so tall that-if they do not quite reach the stature of- giants„, tilky„nearly , : approach ~it; and . this .might more readily have happened in past ages, when, as the learned - Wins, the stature cif man. was~ greater than no*: The like argument would be applicable'. to. pigmies. ,11Vhether MEE I • there now are, or, err hro been, whole Re- i tions of giants or arde4„does not Satisfac torily appear.
