i RATHER sSrRoNe" LANeUAoE.-The
Clarksburg (ya.) Register furnishes the
following as a specimen ofsstreng language
from the pulpit. ThelRev. Samuel Claw
I son. a minister of the Nj E. Church, who
has avery vivid imagination in speaking
& Iof one presentduring one Of his discoarses,
Iwho was Universalist, gave an expression

"Thank Cod, the day is not far distant
when You will be chained down to Hell's
Ibrazen floor, and the Deyil, with his three

lheart, and pile the red hot einders of black

eats. He will throw it into hell for the
little imps there to play ball with"
