The Bible represents that light was created on Monday, and the sun was not created until I'l`hursdn_\'. Just think of it! a book declar- ing` that light was created three days before the sun shown. Why, don't you know that heat and electricity emit light independent of the stunt Beside that, when the earth was in process of (`()nllL`li.~`.'ltl0Il, it was surrounded by thick vapors and the discharge of many volcanoes in the primary period. and all this obscuration may have hindered the light of the sun from falling on the earth until that , Thursday morning. Beside that. David Brewster and Herschel, the astronomer. and all the modern man of their class. agree in the fact that the sun is not light, that it is an opaque mass, that it is only the candlestick that holds the light, a phosphorescent atmos- phere oating around it. changing and chang- ing, so it is not to be at all wondered at that not until that Thursday morning its light tell on the earth. Beside that, the rocks in crys- tallization emit light. There is light from a thousand surfaces, the alkali:-s, for instance. The metallic bases emit light. There was a time in the history oi` the world when there were thousands of miles of liquid granite aming with light. Beside that. it has been found that there are burned out volcanoes in other worlds which, when they were in ex- plosion and activity, must have cast forth an insufferable light, throwing aglare all over our earth. Beside that. there are the Aurora Borealis and the Aurora Anchahs. A book on Physical Science says: Capt. Bonnycastle, coming up the Gulf of St. l.'1wn-nce` on the 17th of Scpt:-mbcr, 1826, was aroused by the mate of the vesacl in great alarm from an unusual appearance. It was a starlight night, when suddenly the sky became overcast. In the direction of the high land of Cornwallis county, an ins1an~ taneous and intensely vivid light. resembling the aurora, shot out on the hitherto gloomy and dark em on the lee how, that was so brilliant, it light/ed everything distinctly, even to tho masthead. The light spread over the whole sen bctwecn the two shores, and the waves, which before had been tranquil, became agitated. Capt. Bomiycaslle describes the scenop` that of a blazing sheet of awful and most brilliant light--a long and vivid line of light that showcil the face of the high frowliiig `man abreast. The sky became lowering and more intense] y obscure. Long. tortuous lines of light showed immense num- bers of large (lah darting about as it in con- sternation. The topsail yard and mizmu boom were lighted by the glare as if gaaliglits had been burned directly below them, and until just before daybreak, at 4 o'clock, the most minute objects were distinctly visible." My hearers, there are ten thousand sources of light besides the light of the sun. A waono coxCl:r'rIoN A.BOL"l` Noarre ARK.

I reply. the Bible distinctly declares that the most of the ood rose instead of falling.

All geolo- gists agree in saying that there are caverns in the eurthllad wit}; water. and they rushed forth, and all the lakes and rivers forsook their bed. The l'oml'luius of the great deep were broken up. and. then `the windows of heaven wu'eop-nod.
