WOEKS ON FOSSIL BOTANY. 759 



God must be in unison, and the more we truly study both, the more 

 they will be found to be in accordance. Any apparent want of corre- 

 spondence proceeds either from imperfect interpretation of Scripture 

 or from incomplete knowledge of science. The changes in the globe 

 have aU preceded man's appearance on the scene. He is the charac- 

 teristic of the present epoch, and he knows by Eevelation that the 

 world is to undergo a further transformation, when the elements shall 

 melt with fervent heat, and when all the present state of things shall 

 be dissolved, ere the ushering in of a new earth, wherein righteousness 

 is to dwell.
