The cold weather we have had this
spring is very rem arkable, and will
be seriously felt throughout the

farmers in town on the st Monday,
and they tell a deplorable tale about

Ahead Of the Rappers.

Alledu OF inc happefS.
We doubt if The rapping and tip
ping Eanaticism Of the present day
can produce anything equal to the
scene below described, drawn from
the accounts Of Drs. Stone and j. B
Dods, (the latter author Of AJudge
Edmonds Refuted. }
Forty five years ngo there was an
extensive religious excitement in
Kentucky. The excitement was
produced by a man partially de-
ranged, who had been a great hun
ter, and who believed himself in
spired, A IL Ills proceedings were
characttriz ed by the greatest fnati-
cism, and partook of the man as Il
hunter. hi order to resist the devil
and make him flee from you, it was
necessary, he contended, to give him
chase, to tree and shoot him~as he
would a wolf among the sheep who
came but to deyour. AS the meet
ing was held in a grove, one individ-
ual suddenly started in pursuit, as
supposed, of the devil; and others
of nervous temperament, having no
power to resist, involuntarily joined
in the pursuit, and this was called
1.-THE running exercised One climbed
up into q tree after the devil, and
others inyoluntarily caught the ma
MIA. This WAS called the ''climbing
exercised" On 9 individual was
moved to bark; and soon others,
even though they used every meth
cd to prevent it, fell to involuntary
barking, like dogs, while others
gathered around the tree PRAYING for
success. This was called ''treeing
the DEVIL 1t was literally d devil
chase! And such time Of running,
climbing, dog-barking, and deyil-cha
sing, was perhaps never known before
or since.
On another occasion, insisting up
on the words Of our Saviour being
literally understood, Except ye
be converted and become as little
children, ye cannot enter into the
kingdom of heaven" one indiyid-
ual went TO playing marbles in the
br Dad aisle of the ch uTch; others In
voluntarily joined him. An old
man went TO expostulate, saying
that it was carrying matters, as he
thought, rather too far! On hear
ing this, an old lady, who was down
upon her knees with the marble-play-
ers, sprang to her, feet, grasped her
umbrella, and taking a side saddle
seat on it, rode down the aisle in full
glee. On seeing this, the
old gentleman could resist it no Ion
ger-he seized his cane, threw him
self astrile of it like boy, and rode
down the aisle after her in sing
song voice: "Oh my dear brethren
and sisters, | feel the full child-like
spirit carving me to heaven on
wooden hoss!r' Several others now
caught the mania, having no power
to resist it. Others. less serious,
broke into conyulsive laughter,
shouted ard hurraed, and the meet
ing broke up in one scene Of confu-
sion.
