In this Symposium we give our readers the net Confusion of the so-called Science of Chronology as taught by “ the Schools,” in contrast with the Truth as taught by one who is deemed to be an “ Ishmaelite,” but who maintains that he is an “ Israel-ite,” and is not only glad of it, but is able to prove that he un-derstands what he is writing about, both upon this subject and upon Chronology.
There is probably more Chronology on this Chart, good, bad and indifferent, than was ever before or is ever hereafter likely to be brought together.* It will pay you to keep it, consult it, con it well, and get onto its merits, if 3Tou can select them out of the Discord. At any rate, here is the extract of thirteen Systems—made by one who understands them all, and has en-deavored to do justice to each upon its own premises, and who advances a fourteenth System, which he is satisfied elects the good of all, harmonizes their facts, and has no theory to offer. It is our conviction that column No. 14 sums up the reliable data without error as to “ years.” If the mesh of the net shall be demanded f in e r , then 99 per cent of the data given on the left will drop into fine type. F01 instance, Dr. II. Giattan Guinness, a standard (?) authority of Great Britain, maintains that the Crucifixion was in 29 a . d . f Column 14 admits this as
* Upon a single sheet.x T his is the only Biblical year Dr. Guinness gets r ig h t , and he is the onlv o f the Eleven who gets it right, yet even his mesh is not fine enough to catch day o f the week, or that of the month, Gregorian or Jew ish !the day
206 OUR R A CE N E W S-L E A F L E T . [No. lxxviii.
to years. But when it comes down to dating, the event at its chronological limit, Dr. Guinness drops out. Because: Dr. G. maintains that the Crucifixion was on Nisan 15th, instead of Nisan 14th, on Friday instead of Thursday, on March 18th in-stead of March 17th, and does not harmonize with Moses, Dan-iel, Ezra, Nehemiah, Ptolemy, Hirtius, Suetonius, Josephus, Matthew, Mark, Luke or John, nor with any other contempo-rary witness—but the 12th and 14th columns will continue to stand in heavy face, even if the demand be made to itemize them down to days of the week, and of the month; indeed, the 1 2th column runs from high noon to high noon along the First of Thoth, except in special cases, and there are functions, by means of which the Biblical dates can be obtained to any re-quired degree o f accuracy. Chronology is a Science, not a Theory, and the 14th column gives its skeleton.
Applying the finer mesh throughout (whether as to fa ct or principle of interpretation it matters not), and hardly a date in the first n columns would remain in black face type, and but few in the 13th.
Now this contention is either true or false, and we would like to receive the discussions, p ro and con, as to the truth or falsity thereof. We have produced our own cause and set it forth with ample reasons, in the Our Race Publications. Our enemies, who are ipso facto the enemies of Truth, have chiefly ignored them, although without disproof. Now, of course, we scorn a merely unsupported denial, and it is on this account, being cow drawn into the present controversy, that we deem the best disproof of our opponents to be the showing up of their own discord among themselves, of their failure as a class to get into any creditable harmony even on the strictly secular dates, and of their woful errancy upon all the important sacred ones.
While it is unfortunate then, that the controversy has been pitched to an unprofessional tone by Dr. Guinness, in that his ideas as to Advent, and Gentile times, do not differ materially from Mr. Dimbleby’s, it is perhaps fortunate that it has been raised at all, in that it has accomplished exactly what we of the New School of Chronology have tried in vain to create—a dis-cussion, and we opine that the reaction will fall where it belongs, and turn the attack into a defense, and so eventually into a defeat; for the investigation by the “ rank and file,” sure now to follow, will be equally sure to cause “ th efile” to change the venue of the chronological discussion altogether. If it can once be gotten out of the hands of the “ Doctors,” and set in order before the “ doers” of the Word, the only real students ol the Bible,—our own cause is won, and that of Mr Dimble- honored° g° ° d W° rk m the premises' will by no means be dis-
G ,, D . , T . AND CO .? 207
We do not endorse Mr. Dimbleby as f i n a l l y " accurate.” His methods are merely “ rules of thumb,” nevertheless, the approximations he has thus arrived at, have gotten him into the required B iblica l “ years” along the whole line of time, 10, 20, and 30 times more often than the methods employed by his opponents have done for them. We have employed both his method for approximation, and the more accurate methods of modem astronomy and analysis for final adjustment, and the 14th column shows the result.
We claim the right, therefore, to speak with authority in these premises, and to say that if years only are sufficient (and the Eleven opposing Schools rarely go closer than this unit) then we had rather have the 13th column of figures than 11,000 columns of figures like those contained in the first eleven col-umns of this table. But we need more than the 13th column, for at best, Mr. Dimbleby’s own System is still an “ untrans-lated ” one. He has rarely if ever turned his Hebrew calen- dric emplacements into equivalent b . c . and a . d . years, or into Julian or Gregorian dates. For instance, we ourselves have had to do this for him in most all of the references given in the 13th column, so as to make them intelligible, and subject to comparison with the rest.
But the System of Chronology from which the 14th column is drawn, is written in every chronological tongue that Bible students are concerned with.
The references given in the Totten column of the Table will lead those posted to the itemized proof as to our own con-tentions. For instance* upon pages 91, 93, 94, 95, 108, in , 113, 120, 124, 123, of Leaflet lviii.-lix., the whole matter is tabulated in separate sections (Sacred, Secular, and in combination) simply enough to be intelligible to anyone. For such as have none of our works at hand we will now give a single sample of the character of the proof by which the true Chronology is tied together; and we can assure them, as our subscribers well know, that by similar methods (crossing each other in a per-fect network, and yet all as separate and independent of each other as the skeleton, muscles, nerves, veins, arteries, etc., in the human body)—the compact beauty as well as the accuracy of the whole system is fully made out. The following line of proof will probably be new to all concerned, at any rate in its present concise form, for many phases thereof are new to us, and known to no one else until revealed here by virtue of col-umn 14.

No system of Chronology, save that in the Bible,ever before compassed this problem, nor as a whole attempted it except that of Professor Dimbleby. We have simply tightened his “ rule of thumb” by additions and corrections. Now, any sys-tem that fails to solve this problem so as to strike a ll the other years referred to as Sabbatic in Secular and Sacred history in unbroken sequence is itself a failure. Corollary: to strikes Sabbath, or a Jubilee here and there, and not throughout is equally fatal to a system. [N. B.—No system within our reach has ever attempted this problem as a “ binder” to its whole array of dates, not even Mr. Dimbleby’s. Try any upon the Discord, or any within your reach, and notify us if any, except that set forth in column 14, f its the case.] This proof is better than one fitted to as many eclipses. There were just 206 Sab-batic years in Tudah’s historv tnnt normtirtn. 111 n of

of 69 a .d ., the following Tishri 1st would have ushered in a Sabbatic year! To wit: from the 1st of the Autumnal new moon of 69 to that of 70 a . d . With what feelings must Judah have gone into the Desolation that still marks the • ‘overspread-ing of abomination,” predicted by Moses, Daniel, and Jesus the Messiah!
Thus unrepentant Judah went into the present dispersion among the Gentiles in a Sabbatic year, but the followers of Christ had fled from that “ sinking ship” (Jos.II.xx. 1) four years before, to wit, at the defeat of Cestus, Fall of 65 a . d .
This is differently proved as follows:From Fall of 1446 b .c . to Fall of 69 A.D. = 2 + ( 2 i 6 X 7 ) = i 5 i 4 y - Omit ga p caused by the Captivity, to w it: (1 y. before City Fell, 70 y. Captivity, and-< 2+ ( io X 7)= 72y.1 y. for Fall of Bab. previous to Resumpt. (
No. lxxviii,]
Note now that 1446-5 b . c . -was Sabbatic, itself, and that 69- 7 0 a . d . would have been—so that the Sabbatic occupation of Palestine began to count with a Sabbatic year in the Fall suc-ceeding the Passage of the Jordan, and ended at the end of a 6th year, i. e., at the threshold of a new Sabbatic year.
But this was upon two different systems, for there was a break caused in the sequence by the 7oy. = ioS. Captivity. Now the establishment of a Sabbatic System always requires 8 years after which the Sabbaths follow 7 years apart. Thus a computed Sabbatic Scale consists of a certain number of Sab-batic years -(- 1 year of origin, also Sabbatic, which, as in the case above, where the Scale begins twice, accounts for the two extra years shown.

This sort of knowledge (scire = to know,) is solid, and as reliable as the Stars that keep the Cycles, and, by “ events ” that are now due upon the same inerrant scale, the wisdom of “ Higher Criti-cism” is doomed to be beaten into chaff and blown away.So from Adam to 1st Sabbatic year inclu. =365 Sabbaths. There were from thence to the Exile 123 Sabbaths+iy.There have been since 10+834-261=: 354 Sabbaths-j-iy.
Total to 1897-8 a .d . = 5896 = 7 X 842 Sabbaths+2y. Allow to complete broken week 5y
3381+2520* * = (483 + 360) X 7 = 5901 = 7 X 843 Sabbaths.143 X 7 = 1001 1 Millennial.
14 x 7 = 98 f “ Little Season.”
7000=1000 “ weeks.”Now perhaps the simplest way to set forth the beauty, as
well as the ominous features of this remarkable matter, is as follows:
T H E SABBATHS OF T H E LAND.1. From Adam to the first Sabbatic year after the Passage of
the Jordan was 2555 current solar years=365 weeks exact and inclusive.
2. Six years they fought, and in the sixth they divided theland, so that on the Seventh, to wit : on that 2d Sab-bath they “ rested” in their possessions. Mr. Dimbleby makes this the first Sabbatic year, and we make it the origin from which to reach the first Jubilee at which they returned into possession. But the Autumn after the Passage of the Jordan began the first year according to the command of Moses. (Levit. xxv. 2, 9, 21. Study Number Five, p. 150.)
3. Now for 122 weeks, even to that Sabbath year that Zedekiahbroke, to wit: the year before the city fell, theyremained in the Land.
4. Then the next year Jerusalem fell and they went into Cap-tivity for 10 weeks.
5. Then Babylon fell, and that Autumn the Sabbatic Scale was, a Sabbatic year—as usual in a resumption.
“ re/S}' ° ^ e d, 7 weeks complete, even 49 years, to the1st Post-Exilic Jubilee inclusive. This is the origin of
* 3381= (62 + 7 X 7 x 7 ); 2520=360 X 7. + Below this line all is conjecture.

Gabriel’s measure, for in 70 weeks, or 490 years, we reach “ the Acceptable Year.” Nowthis latter was “ an high one,” even the n th Post-Exilic Jubilee, and the 78th Post-Exilic Sabbatic year. The interval covers 540 years inclusive (513-12 b .c . to 27-8 a d .). These figures are right. Kindly refrain from disputing them until at least you understand exactly what they mean in all their bear-ings. Meanwhile, let it be noted that from the B ib lica l 1st year of Cyrus, 531-30 b.c . (Year of Edict) to the year in which Jesus was “ 12 years old” (9-10 a .d .) is exactly the same interval, to wit, 540 years = 50 + 490, i. e., the difference of 18 years between the 1st of Cyrus and the 1st Jubilee is exactly equal to the 18-year difference be-tween the two manifestations of Messiah, at “ 12 years old,” and at " 30 years old.” This System of Chronology fits every case in every way—and so a true system should. This remarkable period of 18 years [we pre-sume it is neither more nor less than the exact Eclipse Cycle (18 y. 10 -n d.) when brought down to days upon the Calendar—a fact so far as we can verify it], crops out several times in the Scriptures, for instance, without comment, and leaving the reader to discover the Signifi-cance of the years upon the Table, or in the Our Race Studies, we have 601 — 18 = 583 b.c ., and the importance of this probably exact Eclipse Cycle, as to interior dates, will be seen by the analysis given thereof in Leaflet L V II I .-L IX ., page 125.
7. Next there followed 61 weeks, even 427 years to include 37-36 b.c . , the Sabbatic year in which Herod conquered Jerusalem.
8. Then followed 9 weeks, even 63 years (passing across theB c. and A D. line), to include the whole of the 15th year of Tiberius Caesar which was Sabbatic, yea, a Jubilee year throughout. For Tiberius Caesar's regnal years began on August 19-20, and in 27 a .d . August 19-20 was Tisbri 1st! and on the 10th they blew in that J u bil e e !
9. So the 6t weeks [see 7 above], and the 9 weeks [see 8 above],are 70 weeks, even 490 years, and Tiberius, John, and Jesus occupied the terminal year, which was the Accept-able Year as written.
10. Now Jesus ministered for but 1 year, from Passover 28 a .d .,to Passover 29 a .d ., and was "Crucified, dead and bur-ied,” at the end of it, even on Nisan 14, Thursday, Mar. 17, 29 a .d ., and the City stood 40 years, and was attacked on the 14th of Nisan. 69 a .d .. and fell on the Sth of Elul. Yea, it was ruined by the end of the 42d year, or 6th week, reckoned from the 20th of August, 27 a .d .
11 . So all the years of Palestine from the Autumn after thePassage of the Jordan to the Autumn after the Fall of Jerusalem were i445%-|-68%=i5i4 years, to wit: 216
. weeks and two years, one of the two years being the Sabbatic year of origin (1446-5 b . c . ) , and the other being the year (584-3 b .c ) which followed the Broken Sabbath of Zedekiah, and at the end of which, even in 583 b . c ., the city fell and was destroyed. Yea, in 651 years, even 93 weeks (583-2 b.c . to 68-9 a . d .) to wit, 31 X 21 years the city was again eclipsed (this time by Titus) nor hath it yet emerged from that shadow. We are now living in 262d week thereof: this is 7 times the “ double” of 131 years, and 131 years extend from the Siege of Samaria to that of Jerusalem.
12. Now there are no dates of Secular History adjusted to theVictorian Canon, nor of Sacred History (adjusted to it and to the whole concert of Inspiration, without preju-dice) that do not fit this Sabbatic Scale as punctuated by any ancient reference, and no system of time that does not equal this adjustment, and more also, can sup-plant it.
13. Finally: For 365 weeks the Lord prepared the Land, thenfor 1 week they fought for it, and He gave it into their possession. For 122 weeks they held it; and for 354 weeks it has been trodden down of the Gentiles. So now for 1 week it is again in contention. We therefore look unto the 843d Sabbatic Year from ADAM as the one in which “ Israel” and “ Judah” may be once more at rest and in occupation of the Land, and we confidently expect events of moment to continue to increase over all places related to the Eastern Question, with a view to this consummation so devoutly to be hoped for both by “ Jew s,” and by Anglo-Saxons who are “ Israelites,” yea, and by a ll men be they free, bond, Hebrew or Gentile, for the Desire of all Nations then comes Quickly, and may come before to hasten it.
i / 0r ° urse v-es we not pretend to know either “ Yea” or tjay on this matter, nor, as we believe, doth any one, bave uod, “ cause you to know ” “ N a y ” or “ Yea ” thereon. Moreover, we cannot conceive that He will convey such knowl-
° ? e without proof, ample, conclusive and related a r e “ „i„?I w^lc^ will be patent upon relation to those whoin whntcee d can always recognize the voice of truthm v natsoever language it is uttered.

“origin” of the Millennium, i. e., precede it and count through-out as 1, then 1000+1 = 1001 will be 143 weeks: for 143X 7=1001 years, and this adjustment will leave 7000—6902=98 years= i4 weeks for that “ little season” that must succeed it and so close the 1000 weeks that span the whole 7000 years of Adam’s first week of Millennaries.* There is no theory involved in this matter. It is straight harmony with Bible and Secular History down to 1898 a .d .—but beyond that, in that it is future, and we no prophet, it is of course conjecture, though founded upon an array of conditions, and “ years to spare” that make it worthy of the contemplation and yet more earnest study of all to whom these presents come—unto whom also may the Lord come with a reward.
M EM O RANDUM .
The Chart that accompanies this Leaflet will be kept stand-ing in type for a month or so, in order to allow time for correc-tions—if so be we have been unwittingly unfair to any System itemized therein. Please, therefore, examine it along such lines as you are personally familiar with, and call our attention to necessary alterations, citing proof or references. We should like a postal card expression of opinion from each one of our own constituency upon the merits of this Table, in clearing up their own ideas as to Chronology as taught by “ the Schools” and by ourselves.
The price of these Leaflets (Nov..Dec. 1897, and Jan., 1898) is not high, when the nature of their typography and conden-sation is considered—to say nothing as to their unique value, which we never weigh in prices. To our reg u la r subscribers who desire to spread them—and we know of nothing now more necessary to be spread than a knowledge of the True Chronol-ogy—we would state that we will meet them half-way on any orders they may send us.

If so, and if you intend to continue with us in this battle for
“ T r u t h A g a i n s t t h e W o r l d , ” which is the ancient motto of Our Race, please send along the ammunition. Those who understand the situation here, can well imagine that we do not have much powder and shot left at the end of a year’s campaign. Nevertheless, our intrenchments are always stronger and better filled with guns and troops. Our printer’s bill for 1897 was m o r e than $2,520 spot cash. This was only about one-half of the entire expense connected with the campaign of 1897. Electrotyping, engraving, postage, office expenses, sundries, and a solitary mechanic's fair wages for ourselves, who constitute the entire Our Race Com pany at these headquarters (you, however, being one of the alleged outside parties), cover the rest. We received about $1,500 for subscriptions, sold about $1,600 worth of back numbers, and received about $1,500 in gratuitous ammunition for the
woik. Cash on hand at the beginning of the year, a few dollars. Total received during the year,
$ 4 ,6 o o . Total expenses, $5,100. Deficit, $500, made up by a mortgage on our dwelling house and paid out in a block fo r last month’s p rin te r’s bill. But this is not a bad showing upon the whole, for our inventory shows an increased stock on hand (back numbers of 5th Series and 6th set of News- Leaflets all paid for) that is worth five times the amount of the mortgage— provided we can sell them. Nevertheless, the statement shows the extrem ity to which, in a fa ir fight, “ D e causa V erita tis ," in these dismal days, one maybe driven. We have just about $500 due us on delinquent bills and subscriptions for 1897 and former years Had this been in by the end of the year we would have come out clear. The value of our work is sufficiently set forth by Study Number Twenty, and by the Leaflets for November, December (1897), and January (1898). Shall we con tinue? We imagine the motion made, seconded and carried, practically by acclamation, so we take the liberty of answering for “ Gideon’s Band We w ill, in God’s name. We, individually, shall work at this cause, even if we cannot print, and if the real friends of this cause continue to help us, and God also w ills it, we promise them thirteen News-Leaflets, and by the end of 1898 at least one Study, which they w ill prize more than gold, and which we intend to make worth its weight in “ facts.”

Industries and Wealth of Nations
BY
M ICHAEL G. MULHALLAuthor of u T h e Dictionary of Statistics,” etc.
This work presents in a narrow compass the results of the labours of hundreds of able writers whose works are not accessible to the general public. I t deals with the principal industries of each nation and attempts to measure the progress of such industries in the last 70
or 80 years. The ultimate object is to arrive approxi mately at the earnings of each nation, and its wealth at various dates, showing the average annual accumulation. The enquiry is confined to Europe, United States, Canada, Australia, Cape Colony and Argentina, and is based on 37 comparative tables, which are given in the Appendix. One uniform plan is followed throughout the book, each country in succession being considered as to agriculture, energy, manufactures, mining, com merce, earnings, wealth and finances.

CO M M EN TS AND CONCLUSION.Finally, De Causa Veritatis,—but without animus; in our own column of this Table we have sought to harmonize “ the conditions, all the conditions, and nothing but the conditions, with
1 no quarter asked and none given in the premises, in that we seek truth, and had rather be defeated by it, to a changing of our minds thereunto, than be guilty of suppressing it: If, therefore,
( any one can shake the 12th and 14th columns of this table, by producing additional conditions that ipso facto shatter the System, he is conjured to do so. Let it, however, be known that from Tues.I Ju ly 20, 1322, b . c . , O.S., to Sat. Jan. 1, 1898 a .d ., N .S., the System is a rigid astronomical mosaic, and agrees with Moses and the Prophets. So we feel perfectly safe in challenging the world,
Christian, Jewish, Mohammedan, or Heathen, to the rebuttal of our broad chronological contention (sma11 details excepted). Meantime, w e feel equally safe in assuring those who have neither the time to verify nor the ability to re-calculate, that they can rely upon this System as upon no former one. Its skirts are clear of theory, its methods are scientific, and its details honest. As to the future, we are predicting nothing, nor are we setting hours, days, months or years for great events we leave that to “ the Soothsayers,’ whose works perish with them, le t , we are ustified in expecting, from such an array of coincident data, the speedy termination of the “ Times of the Gentiles,” and the consequent Restoration of Jerusalem to its oidained heirs, both teral (Israel and Judah) and spiritual (the Lord knoweth them that are His), and we expect the Advent, in due time, of Him whose right it is to rule the nations from thence, even Jerusalem; and t* believe moreover, that His Command is a safe one to the Church— “ Watch ye at a l l Seasons, * * for y e know not w h e n your Lord cometh." No; nor yet when he doth not come! Therefore, h\s just as dangerous to say, “ N ay,” as “ Aye,” for ye know nothing upon this topic, nor doth any man “ cause you to k n o w ’’ ( ^ k Leaflet xxxv. p. 156) but ye owe Obedience (Mark xiii. 37).
