fever and dropsy on the brain, and his consttu'

The Rev Dr. Tying; Of this city, preached the
annual Commencement Sermon at Williams Col
lege on Sunday last. correspondent of the
EreniRg Post says:
"Instead of gratifying the audience by one Of
his extempore speeches, he read long. learned
and hbored discussion of the prophecies of the
Bible, as to the inauguration of the kingdom Of
Christ upon earth, altogether novel in its charac
ter, and somewhat remarkable in its views and
conclusions lie held that Gods viii had never been
dominant in any imam government, but that they
were all mere Organizations Of mans apostacy
from God. God, in bis authority, is banished
from the earth lie spoke severely of the way
in which Great Britain panders to Indian super
stitons and America to slavery. DR., Tying found
in the prophecies the ground of his hope and con'
6denee. Ile,interpreted them aS predicting that
four successful G1onarchies were to rule the world,
all UNSOLICITED to Gods will, the king loms of
gold, silver, brass and iron. Finally, there would
be fifth universal kingdom--the real reign Of
God on earth. The former were the Babalpnian,
the Persian, the Grecian and the Roman. All
these had passed. This is the stage OF Tans,
ton and chaos. Soon, and by mighty and sud,
den revoluion the last kingdom will be ushered
in. The time, he Argued, was very near"
