the Council proceedings as published in

ZION to take some etfeetus! steps towards

DELUGE IN THE PLANET SATUEN.-In arecent
work, entitled esThe New Theory of the Crea-
tion and Deluge,' among other startling pre-
dictions it is stated that il is probable the rings
which surround Saturn are composed of water,
snow or ice, which, at some future time may
descend and deluge that planet, as ours was
deluged in the days of the patriarch Noah.''
1t now appears that this event is likely to take
place little sooner than was anticipated, for
Sir David Brewster says: ssMr. Otto Struve
and Mr.. Bond have lately studied with the
great Munich telescope; at the Observatory of
Pulkoway, the third ring of Saturn, which Mr..
Lassells and Mr.. Bond discovered to be fluid
ssThese astronomers are of the opinion that
this fluid ring is not of very recent formation,
and that it is not subject to rapid change; and
they have come to the extradordinary conclu-
sion that the inner border of the ring has,
since the time of Huygens, been gradually ap-
preaching to the body of Saturn, aud that we
may expect, sooner or later, perhaps, in some
dozen of years, to see the rings united with
the body Of the planet"

DIsrREssISG GALaMITY.-A Family of Elev-
en- Frozen to Dcath---An old friend Informs
US that neishl,or OF his, residing upon cold
bleak portion of the Suburbs, has been visited
by dreadful calamity, one most affecting to
the parties bereft, and which made us shud-
der when he, in feeling manner, broached to
us the sad intelligence. The whole offspring
of family eleven In number-frozen, liter
ally frozen to DEATH 1t is too well known
that Wednesday night was one of the very col
dest that has transpired for many year in this
latitude and that suffering was intense. The
miserable wreck of shanty in which this
large family were harbored was scarce At to
protect the hardest of the brute creation.
Not fame nor spark of fire was beneath
the roof to cheer their countenances nor to
warm their little feet; but there they were
compelled to remain during that entire cold
and bitter night--no friend knowing nor dream
ing of the intense sufferingto which they were
being subject, yet it is not TO be doubted that
had they been only able to make known to
the community the precise nature of their dis
tress, the hand of charity would have been ex-
tended at least so far as TO render them better
housed. But this was unfortunately not so;
and in the morning, when guardian OF the
family looked into the miserable residence, his
feelings were deeply touched at seeing the
tire eIcreu frozen stiff in death and he at once
censured himself for not having exercised
better protective care over the family. The
bereaved mother of the eleven little ones was
yet alive, and we are informed is doing ssas
we'll as could be expected under the peculiar
circumstances The fatheris perfect brute,
perfect hog, and has not been seen by the
mother for several IL months.-Balfinore Repu5-
lican.
