Augustine, comprised in the same Decree of Election salvation and the means that conduce to it. To demonstrate this synchronism of destinations or of decrees with which we are concerned, we must revert to the expedient that I have employed more than once, which states that God, before decreeing anything, considered among other possible sequences of things that one which he afterwards approved.
But the admission of the doctrine of colonies implies the further admission that even identity of organic remains is no proof of the synchronism of the deposits which contain them. The discussions touching the Eozoon, which commenced in 1864, have abundantly justified the fourth proposition.
And the girl spoke, and returned to her father's house, as Alcestis, when restored to life by Hercules." As to his proclaiming at Ephesus the assassination of Domitian at the time of its occurrence, of course, if he was at a great distance from Rome and the synchronism of events could be proved, we should be bound to give it our serious consideration; but synchronisms are difficult to verify.
Fancy how Pitt's public, lately gloomy and dubious, blazed aloft into joyful certainty again! Pitt's outlooks have been really gloomy all this season; nor are the difficulties yet ended, though we hope they will end. Let us add this other bit of Synchronism, which is still of adverse aspect, over Seas; and will be pungently interesting to Pitt and England, when they come to hear of it.
There seems, then, no escape from the admission that neither physical geology, nor paleontology, possesses any method by which the absolute synchronism of two strata can be demonstrated. All that geology can prove is local order of succession.
He was determined upon educating 'John King, and kept insisting that the invisible hands press the rubber ball, or lower the registry balance, or set the metronome going, and Eusapia repeatedly moaned: 'I can't find, 'I can't see, or 'I don't know how. Once she complained that the objects were too far off that she could not reach them! all of which sustained Bottazzi in his belief that these activities were absolutely under her psychic control, just as the synchronism of movements convinced him that she was 'the physiologic factor in the case. All of this is very exciting to me, for I have had the same feeling with regard to the several mediums whose activities I have closely studied.
He says: 'The mediumistic limbs explored the cabinet. A spiritist would say: 'John King explored the cabinet. The synchronism he speaks of might exist, and only be a proof of what the spiritist admits that the presence and activity of the materializing spirit are closely circumscribed by the medium." "Bottazzi proved the relationship to be something more intimate than that.
The vibrations of the diaphragm communicated to the valves cause them to operate in synchronism, so that the vibrations are thrown upon the escaping air or steam; and the result is an instrument with a capacity of magnifying the sounds two hundred times, and of hurling them to great distances intelligibly, like a huge fog-siren, but with immense clearness and penetration.
The second is that while the Hindus declare that none of the blood royal escaped, Batuta distinctly mentions the survival of eleven sons, and proves his point incontestably. But this does not vitiate the general resemblance of the two accounts, while the synchronism of the dates renders it impossible to believe that they can refer to two separate events.
The use of the word "homotaxis" instead of "synchronism" has not, so far as I know, found much favour in the eyes of geologists.
