TIE TAILOR AND DEAN SWIFT.
|n|lor 10 Dub in, near the residence Of The
Dean took il luto The ninth part Of his head
that ba was especially and dvinelY inspired to
inla lpI The ptophecIes, and especially the
book 81 Revelation. Quiliiug the shoP-bOard
be turnedi cut preacher, OrraIhera a prophet,
his customers had left his shop. and his family
was likely 10 famish. His mOHOmGniG was
we'll known 10 Dean Swift, who benevolenty
watched for some convenient opportunity 10
turn the eurren, Of his thoughts. One night
The tailor, as he fancied, got especial reVela-
ton to 20 and convert Dean Swift, and next
morning took up the line Of march 10 the dea-
merry. The Dean, whose study was furnished
with glass door, saw the tailor apptoach. &
instantly surmised the nature Of his errand.
Throwing himself into an altitude Of soIemRi-
iy and lhoughtluIness, with the Bible opened
before him and his eyes fixed on the 10Th chap
ter Of Revelation, he awaited HE approach.
The door opened, and he announced, IN an
unearhly voice, the message Swift. l
am sent by The Almighty 10 announceto you
a-'Come 10, my friend,' saId the Dean, i am
in great trouble, aud no doubt the good Lord
has sent you TO help the out ofmy drftienlty:'
This unexpected welcome inspired the tales
and ndstrenglhsned greatly his assurance in his
own prophetical character, and disposed him
to listen 10 the prophetical characler ind dis
posed him 10 listen 10 the disclosure. MY
frlend,' said the Dean, shave ustbsen read
ing The 10Th chapter of Revelation, and am
greatly distressed al difficulty have met
with; and you arc the very man ssntt TO help
me out. Hero is an accountof an angel that
came down ffem Heaven WhoS was solarge
that he placed one foot on the sea and tho 9th
er on the earth and lifted up hs hstds TO Hea
ven. Now, my knowledge Of mathematical
cou,nued,he Dean has enabled me to cal-
culate exactly the sfze eudform Of this angel;
but am in great difficulty, for i wish 10 ascer
tain how much cloth il will take TO mako him
a pair of breeches; and ~ that 10 exactly in
your line Of business, hGve no doubt The Lord
has sent YOU to sh0w me- This exposition
came like an elcctrick shock TO the poor tailor
he rushedfrom The house, ran TO his shop, and
a sudden ,evulsion Of thought eameove him.
Making brseches was exactly in his line Of
business. He, returned 10 his occupation,
thoroughly cured o(hs prophetcaI revelations
by the wit Of the Dean.
