The statements of the Pentateuch are confirmed, moreover, By various the facts of history (a), ethnography (b), andfacts. geology (c), so far as these have been clearly ascer-tained. (a.) No nation has credible, or even intelligible, records extendingearlier than the flood. The dynasties of Egypt run up, on the largestinterpretation, no higher than B. C. 2200 (Champollion). The reign ofYoa, the first Chinese emperor mentioned by Confucius (B. C. 450), cannot be earlier than B. C. 2500; nor is there any historical certaintytill the year B. C. 782 (Klaproth). The celebrated chronology of Indiareaches no higher than B. C. 2256, and then we have Buddha himself, the representative, perhaps, of Noah (Col. Tod).

EGYPTIAN PUBLIC WEIGHER.{From the Monuments.) On the Egyptian tombs of Thebes, 1 of the earlier dynasties, may be seen the rep-resentation of the public weigher, whose business it was to see that the weights werejust, and where cattle and merchandise figure for purposes of currency; the moneyconsisting of rings of gold and silver. Other ancient nations, notably the Hebrews, early adopted the same method. Silver by weight was adopted as a medium of ex-change by the Hebrews. Thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, Deut. xxv.15; and of this a notable example may be seen in Job, where the standard of hisriches is given in his numerous cattle; Abraham, about 9 centuries B. C, waswealthy in cattle, in silver, and in gold. (Gen. xiii. 2.) Homer, too, a 1000 yearsbefore Christ, in his Iliad, mentions cattle as an exchange between his heroes.
