Strange as all this may seem, it is nst slra nge

years. In the present position of public affairs it
smacks strongly of probability
Much of this speculation we know to be true;
that which relates to the future is strongly forth

that he will speedily find impossible 10 the incurable
nature Of the feud: oflts worshppcrs and still more
