Extract OF letter from gentleman in Alep4
pc to his TREND translated from the Ga
zette of Marseiiles, Of 10th October, 1906.
g A very extraordinary discovery, such as
viii consound thousand systems Of prophetic
writers, has lately been maee-sThe Apoca-
I lypse or Revelation oiSt. John, one of the A.
postles, has long been the subject of doubt and
endless disputation. For several centuries it
wasglot considered by mary Christian Fathers
and Churches as cannonical, or the work Of
the inspired Apostle Iohn; even Luther re-
lected lt.--Those who doubted It's title to the
Canon, afledged it TO be the fabrication Of one
Cesznshus, who was cotemporafy with the A
postles, and a Christian hereto who denied
the Divinity of Christ, aiedging he was but
teacher, and his doctrine or morals only d.
vine.a ~,
The point in dispute seems now to be bro't
to a termination-Soln green laborers be-
longing to a little town called Clos, In Asia
Minor, lately removing SOME rubbish from an an
ancient edihce and digging up Its ruins,
took up a small marble globe. They. could
perceive no aperture, and at first conceived it
was solid. On taking it however to the VII
lage it was found to be hollow. but with a she'll
ofilnmense thickness and weight, and was e.
nally broken. IL
s There was found in it number. 6f scrolls
or writings in the Greek language, bearing!
dates between So and 98, A. D. They were
most curiously done UP, and continued in a
perfect state of preservation. They were
found to be wholly the writings of Cerinthus /
containing his epistlesIto the Christian church

controversy, en- subsisting among the chris
tiaIls.' 81 Vs.; go
ao These works appear to be written with
great sectarian zeal, somewhat indicating i'm
paired brain, but the most singular of these
#hingsi is a full draft Of the y1hocalytse in the
same hand writing as the rest, with erazures,
alterations and. interIineations.- SIN every es-
sential particular, it agrees with the book
now called the revelation of st. JOAN and
from the erazur-s alterations and appear

And he who from thy hand

We babe the Jongler come

We eircled thee in myfic dance,

Thoie are the unfatiguable feet
That Iaverfed the foreR track,

Thundered the yell of war;
And that is the ltrong right arm
That never was lifted in vain.
Thofe lips are flent now,
The limbs that were active are RiF,

And where is that which in Thy voice
The language Of friendship fpake!
That gave the firength Of thine arm
