NIilIcrisnI,

The Rev. A. c. Thomas lectured adverse to
the absurd doctrines of Millersrn, at the Brook
lyn Lyceum nightor two ago The n. Y.
Express notices his discourse thus
The foundation of Miller's theory was upon
the prophecies of Daniel and the Apocalypse.
The precise year 1913 was obtained in Sc.
veral ways, by the different lengths of time al
lowed for the accomplishment ofthe prophecies,
time meant by the 1900 days in Daniel and the
20 years That Miler's theory was erroneous
he proved by quoting some other prophecies,
and the manner in which the term ofdays and
years were used and the length of time TAKEN
proves completely that days and years were IT,
sed in prophecy as in common language with
us now.
As instances, he quoted first the destruction
destroyed at the time specified no one could
doubt. he said. So in the case Of Joshua in his
promise to the Israelites that he would take
them across the Red Sea in three days, no one

days instead ofyears.-lle also quoted the pas
sage in Genesis, where God promised Nrnl
that at the end of seven days it should reir ,or
ty days and forty nights, which was f.,l,y com
pletcd aud To show in more Striking lioh
the absurdity OF calling 1ay year, as dom
by Miller he would "pG',y the rule to some o
the passages G"otet. by Miller, as for instance
NeouchSnneszfr was to pass seven times seve

siderable exten. at least, might be discovered.
DR. Tominson suotes Isaiah whcn he says:
"there shall be no more thence. or all old n1an
that has not filled his days" He also express
e' the opinion, that during the delightful peri
cd alluded to there shall be an entire cessation
of all national asd individual hostility between
man and man; that the people shall hcat their
swords into ploughsharcs, and their spears into
prunng'hooks, that nation shall not llft up
sword against nation, neither learn war any
more. That the great and paramount law of
love to God, and love TO man, shall be So gen
orally acted upon, that the practical influence,
of every contrary sentiment, shall be utterly
aanshed from the earth,
Without expressing any opinion as to the
various riews--one thing is clear 80 far as
Christians are concerned, namely, that it s the
duty Of every individual to act in the immedi-
ate circle of which he forms member, 80 as
to improve the mental and moral condition Of
those around him, and thus to assist in how
ever humble degree the arrival Of the period
to which all having faith in the scriptures and
pr phcccs, look forward with hope and con-
fdeHce, The Temperance Reform, ofthe pre-
sent time, by which milions have been rescued
from error and crime, may justly be regarded
as one Of the lights Of the age, which points to
more general moral generation Of the family
Of man When we remember, moreover, that
in the course ofa single century, the whole
face ofthe earth is changed, as relates to its
inhabitants, and that the millions OF the pre-
sent become the millions Of the p4st; what
moral revolutions may n.t be- anticipated IN the
course Of one or two ccaIuar.cs

Bfsrnr tn uneathered rice he lay,
His sickle in his hand:
His breast was baro, his matted hair
Was buried in the sand.
Again, in the mist and shadow OF sleep,
Ne saw his Native Land.
Wide through tho Landscape of his dreams
The lordly Niger flowed;
Beneath the palm-ttees on the plain
Once more a king he strobe,
And heard the tnkling caravans
Descend the mountain.road.

Among her children stand;
They clasped his neck, they kissed his checks.
They held him by The hand!-
And tear. hurst from the s!eeper's lids,
AMI fell into the sand.
And then at furious speed he rode
Along the Myers bank;
His hride-reins were golden chains,
Aud, with a martial clank,
At each leap he could feel his scabbsrd Of steel
Shifting his stations flank.
Before him, like a blood.rcd flag,
The bright flamingoes flow
From morn till night he followed their flight,
Der plains where the tamsrind grew,
Till he saw the roofs of Caffre huts,
And the ocean rose to view.
AT night he heard the lion roar,
And the hyena scream,
And the river horse. as he crushed the reeds
Beside some hidden stream;
And it passed, like glorious roll of drums,
Through the triumph of his dream.
The forests with their myriad tongues,
Shouted Of lib rty;
And the Blast If the Desert cried aloud,
With a voice SO wild and free,
That he started in his sleep, and smiled
AT their tempestuous glee.

Nor the burning heat of day;
