Globe states that there is in that city a most
singular sect of rcligionists, who call them
selves Giaddentics, who have existed some
years in this city, and who have but two prom
inent points of faith. Ono is a settled oppo-
si,ion to ordinary ecclesiastical forms-the
other, is the necessity of always SAYING jus,
what they think of persons OF acts. To carry
out the first. they sever meet a clergyman
without gazing dog 'dly at him, and men,
women, and children, apos,rophising lin
with 'priestoratt priestcraft ! until he is out
Of their sight, as an instance of their irankncss.
When they msetany one on the street, instead
of the usual situations, they gaze on him, and
if pleased with his looks, say, Give your
heart To the Lord - it, on the contrary, they
like him not, they say, The devils in We ~

About ljO years ago an ancestor died, direct

attempted TO set aside the will but failed; they
however passed an act that no such will should
be legal thenceforward. Worcester Spy.
There are so many errors in the above ex-
tract, relating to one OF the most singular wills
ever framed, that we have thought il worth
willie TO correct them.
Peter Thelluson, the ~testator. was settled AT
Broadsworth, in the county of York, in Eng
land. lie died July 81, 1897, having, by will
dated April ID; 1876, after giving large lega-
cies To his family, devised the residue of his
property, consisting of lands of the annual
value oil fl,500, and a personal property of
t6OO 900, tn trustees, for the purpose of nc.
cumulating during the lives Of his three sons.
and The lives OF the survivors of them; then
the estates directed TO be purchased with the
produce OF the accumulating fund to be con

The property will il is supposed. far exceed

before the birth of the son William. il WA.
calculated it would probably amount TO thirty.
