Ludicrous effects ofthe ahhearance ofa
CONRTjnIS19

4.
In the year 1712, Mr. Winston having cal
culated the return of Comet, which was to
make its appearance on Wednesday the 14th
of Oct. at minutes after S in the morning,
gave notice to the public accordingly, with
this terrifying addition that the total d;ssolu-
ton of the world by fire, was to take place
on the Friday following, The reputation Mr.
Winston had long maintained in Englsnd
both as divine and philosopher, left little
or no doubt with the populace, of the truth Of
his prediction. Several ludicrous events now
took place. A number Of persons in and a
bout London seized all the barges and boats
they could lay hands on in the Thames, very
nationally concluding, that when the confia-
grafton took place, there would be the most
safety on the water. Agentleman who had
neglected family prayer for better than FIVE
years, informed his wife, that it was his de-
termination to resume that Iaudable prac-
tice the same evening but his wife having
engaged bail at her house, persuaded her
husband topuc it off tillesthey saw whether
the comet appeared or not.E The South Sea
stock Immediately fell to per cent. and the
India to II; and the captain of Dutch
ship threw all his powder into the river, that
the ship might not be endangered
The next morning however, the comet
appeared, according to the prediction, and
before noon the belief was universal, that the
day ofjudgment was at hand. About this
time 1913 clergymen we're ferried over to
Lambeth, it was said, to petition that short
prayer might be penned and ordered, there
being none in the church service on that oc-
casion. Three maids of honor burnt their
collections of novels and plays, and sent to the
bookseller TO buy each of them a Bible, and
Bishop Taylor's Holy Living and Dying
The run upon the Bank was SO prodigous,
that all hands were employed from morning
tillnight 10 discounting notes, and handing
out specie. On Thursday, considerably more
than 1000 kept mistresses were legally mar
ried, in the face of several congregation
And to crown the whole farce, Sir Gilbert
Heathcotc, at that time head director of the
Bank, issued orders to all the fire officers in
London, requiring them to keep good
lookout, and have particular eye upon the
Bank of England"
