TIDE GARDEN OF EDEN. ITS PROBAW.: LOCATION NEAR THE CITY OF C rIAEILESTON. Bishop Keeinr (ves Some Reasous for Such a Suppo.i: .=-kie Zoyage of Noah in the Ark. The Rev. J. C. Keener D.D., in re viewing an article in the Review, writes to the Southern Christian Advocate as follows: I am, however, a little surpri d at the qiet wty in which you, 3r. Edit t:ke the spectuons oi Dr. \ Vaen, "i the Boston Liversity, which Dr. EI - rison has notice :, w. approving y in his "Book Reviews." I shoald cer tainly not allow !his industrious and scholarly Bostonian to take the very ground from under me without a pro test. If "tho. Cradle of the human Race" is to be found at the North Pole, of course no one can think or look to ward it without seeing Boston and its University. Whatever may be the merits of the Doctor's theory, he has at least losened up Eden. It is now fauly at sta. I have been content all rey life to consider the question as st d, and have been content to think of ".\Iesopotamia" as the acknowledged home of our first parents. But the Doctor says that the I Arctic circle furnishes tie true solution of this fascinating *ooam. "This perennial interest in toe se arch for the garden of Eden" was, sa; : the Review,! the inspiration of Cohusba'; that "he! cherished theconvict1ou ahaost, .ehaps actually, to 'is dying day that he had discovered t'araiise." V "O-e of the most pathetic passages to be found in all literature," says Dr. Warren, "is that in which announcvs to his royal patrons in his discovery of the ascent to the gate of the long lost garden of Eden. Of course Columbus was mistaken. It may be, however, that he was not so far our of the way as Dr. Warren supposes. At feast there remains something to be said -. favor of Southern latitudes in connec ;4on with Eden. Columbus landed too low. The next point attracted attention of those in search of the site of Paradise was the Florida coast. That vision, too, at last went out like a dis.olvLg camera. SI take it for granted that the theory which places Eden at the North Pole makes it straddle both hemispheres, and and that brings it into America. I sup pose, too, the suggestion sprang from the discovery of a mammoth in 1771 in a tributary of the Lena, in Siberia, lati tude 65 degrees North; and also in 1804 one was found in Siberia. Both, how ever, had very close set red wool an inch and a half long over the skin-an Aretie covering in fact. Then I suppose the day of six months would be quite a windfall to those who want "more room" in the Mosaic aceount of "the evening and the morning" of the first day. Now, suppose we bring Eden down South, say as far as Charleston, em bracing the coast between the Santee and the Savannah, with its several rivers and inlets, between the 30th and 40th arsllels of latitude. We have for it this muh to say: 1. In and near 14 Cooper and the Ashley rivers there is a vast collection of the remains of the largest mammals, specially of t'r molars and vetebr e. These are remaka le for their variety: very hugs, very many, an'd evidently of many distinct species. We put this 'aainst all solitary individuals as yet discovered in or near the Artie regions. 2. Besides these :emains, which, from the amount of silica in taem, have re sisted the action of time and acids, there are phosphate masses in which these molars are imbedded. Probably the large bones returned to their orvinial sourc~e. Then there are scattered a bout *small and large boulders of the phos-, haeof lime, indicating at a greater atha mine of this mineral. 3.Ti.is shows that these animals were not floated into this place by the action of sea currents, but were here from the hrst and found in the alluvial plains around, and meadows filled with bulb ous plants, and an exhuberant flora, their original habitat Only a region supplying plants fed by a heavy phos *phate pabulum could support creatures of sneh enormous bone. 4. As these several species multiplied from a single pair, masses of their re manswould most probablg indicate the pi~ ftheir origin. Whether behometh 'was made in Eden, we kn'ow that he was reviewed there, and ihere named by Adam. And the Almiguty say s, speak ing of Job: "Behold Low behometh, which I made with thee; ie eateth gras like an ox;. These views, if correct, are still fur ther strengthened by the budding of the ark. As the race had not been separated' by dispersion or language, it is to be supposed that Noah lived not very far from the original home of man. The construction of a vessei at that time required th'e same conditions of -material and shape now essential in naval architecture. Indeed, the dimen sions of the ark are now those of a first class sea steamer for freight, and are the standard proportions in the English Ad miiralty oflice. It was a long, norrow vessel, evidently designed for speed and a long voyage. Had it been made only to start from a given point and float about for 150 days and then ground at no great distance from the point of de parture, it would have been shaped heavy and square. The timbers for such a vessel of length, over 500 feet, required timber of continuous length and great strength. The cypress was entirely too brittle for the purpose. Its knees and ribs would require such wood as the live oak, grown near the sea, used to storms, and of a grain running every way, bearing equal ly well a strain from every direction. Large quantities of pitch and tar would be required for pitching it heavily to the within and without. The word "gopher" means "pitch," "pine;" and it is probable that the gopher wood was of the long-leaf prne. I need not say that either of the Carolinas could have furnished the materials in abundance. That the ark was built somewhat in land for the convenience of timber is probable. Tet not very far, as the p~rin ciple weight of its cargo was to be graminivorous stock. and large quantr tiespof dried herbage, both of which was to come from meauiow lands. The breaking up of the deep, &c., at time of the deluge, would not imply necessarily any very creat change in the conformation of cL. conitinents, nor in the sea currents. We must also remem ber that the Lo. at the creation had in view the possibility of the flood, as well - as of the "fall" and ara~ngea according ly. When the iek ..s li ted up, and as it is so grandly sau, "went upon the face of the waters," it staited due Eat if it started from near Charlesto'n. It would presently strike the gulf stream. Floating on that sea current it wol take a Northerly direction until it reach ed the 40th pauallel, adtle would go due East, and, as many a helpless craft since, would come in sight of Spain and Africa. But those coas's being sub fleet the curren:, but it would pass over the plateaus of Spain, into the Mediter ranean, across the lower part of Greece, then over the plains of Asia Minor, and, still holding the same parallel, strike Mount Ararat. The distance from Chaaleston to Mount Ararat is 131 de grees of latitude, say 8,515 mile. The time the ark was on the water was one hundred and fifty days, or 3,600 hours. Off Cape Hatteras the gulf stream has a vtosity of two miles an hour; this would leah very little to be overcohme, if we -u or'the uninterrupted Ilow which tl:, carrent then had. It is not likelv that animals would l'e nIid-A .a ny oti-er than the latitude to whie t &v were aecustomed. They 1: i tE m.i. e theudiection of the ask. T way of the ark under this sup p~sition haa a bleasing in it. Between the :.0:h and the 41h parallels have spru:ig the great philosopi.ers, warriors, sat.smen and diseoverers of the race, in.:ading the Saviour, St. Paul, St. John and the Churches of Asia Minor. I shall not stress the fact that by the Province of God we find Methodism be -uu at Cierieston and Savaninah in the "Irst l'ymn book ever published by :ir. %1'; lo in . t_ - ,oravin, in 'u: s d in the latbrs of r. itneld. lhere cea:.ily would be a itness in starting it somewhere near the ori-ina site of EA-n. Nowis any one diifers from this view, I ala content. I do not press it. I leave that to you South Carolhnians. A LETTEn FRIOM CtARLESiON. Nt:' A; ut (n.la Wechr-a,: o.r the Polit~idans -i,.

AMONG TIE POLITICtANs. The politicians are now active ad the the favorite candidate for M1ayor, among :Le young m-en, seems to be Capt. George Br-an, wno'is a lawyer, about 42 years of g.~and quite popular. In disp.>ition he i- alt ;got her unitiise Mayor Courtnay, beig very good naturtd, open to conviction anmi IXe ued to let weil enough alone. Mayo Coa Lnay, on the other hand, nas the bump -f -:t hea ativeness abnormally develped i umdess he is )up and doing, planning, pllizn down and ouilding up, he is like a I out of its native element, lie would make an excellent Mayor for a city liie New.York where money is plentiful, but th.e great need of the people of Carlieston a, i aertaxes and less improveuens, for 1:will at least.

Li<:uteuant Joseph Golden, whto is -,e o:gman and entered the ras as -prsv. te u-bi'ut twenty years ego. iiis is he II:st ilme in my remembrance that an (licetr oft the police has been elevated to the rak of Captain by promnotiona. The office ha al ways be-en one of political significane a:da the succssful applicants were only thoee who, besides their quaiifacious, pos sessed much intluence with Council. When M:jor Fr. st resigned i- was generally ex peted that a neaw chief-one who had never served in iiurness-would have 1.-i~ naediately eitcted and the great surpriue was when tiie comnmand was uurued over to Lieai. Goldeni. The sutrprisc: I am happy to say, was a most agreeable o e, for never wasa more competent and worthy oilicer p-ced in po.sition than the now acting chief of the Charleston police force. Hie has won every position-and he has climbed the ladder froms the ranks-by strict ad ierance to duty nnd gentlemanly deport ment-qualities not always possessed by tze average policeman. The force never uspeared to better advantage than during li~a Week, and that eveni, was indeedi a nod test of tihe tiesciplinary skill of the e iummauder. It is to be hoped that lhe naw Council will install Lietut. Golden as chief of police for the ensuirig term, com enccing next January.
