ANECDOT E,
A Scotch clergyman, whole wife it
seems, was a descendant of the fa
mous Xantippe, in going thro'a course of
ledures on the Revelations of St. John,
firft adopted the opinion that women had
no fouls, and were incapable of future re
wards and punishments. It was no soon
er known in the country that he maintain
ed such a do&rine, than he was Summon
ed before aPrefbytery of his brethren to be
dealt with according to his delinquency.
When he appeared before them, he an
swered, "in the revelations of St. John
the Divine, you will find this passage;
" and there wasfierce in Heaven far about the
fyace of half an hour." Now I appeal to all
of you to tell me, whether that could pos
sibly have happened, had any women been
there ? And since there are none there,
charity forbids us to imagine that they are
in a worse place; it follows therefore
that they can have no immortal parts :
and happy is it for them, as they are
thereby exempted from being accounta
ble for all the noise and disturbance which
they have occasioned in this world."
"NTOTICE io hereby given, to the non resident
Proprietors of the town of Sandyfield, in the
county of BffHhire, and the Eleven Thonfend
Acr& adjoining That their Gid lands are taxed and
Will be fold for the payment of Gid taxes, unlgfs
