Second Advent in New Jersey The World Not
Burned Up-Final Meeting of the Meritcs.

Tt seems that number of people in New
Jersey yet cling to the doctrine of the Second
AdventIsts Notwithstanding their frequent
disappointmennts, mIny of those individuals
expected the world to come to an end on Easter
Sunday. The Newark Daily hercary of Mon
day morning, says:
The Second Advcntists secured large at
tendance at their meetings yesterday, many be-
nag drawn thither from curiosity TO witness the
conduct of those who were momentarily expect
ing to be summoned to the Judgment. Among
those who spoke at their meeting in the morn
ing, WAS a boy of some twelve or fourteen years.
who said he prepared for and expected the
immediate end of all things earthly yet, if it did
not come To pass as they anticipated, he could
wait the final summons with a calm and peace
ful m,ni-let it be long delayed as il might.
In the evening the large room in the third
story of Wards building, occupied by the
disciples of Father Miller, and an audience of
some two hundred persons assembled. The be-
levers did not appear a. sanguIne as formerly,
and before the evening spent, Mr.. Flavell
announced that they had now arrived at the con-
clusIon that the conclusion of earthly affairs
not So near at hand as they had supposed, but
1t would take place, of 4 certainty, within fort
days They thought it would occur on Easter
Sunday, because 1t was OIL that day that Napo-
leon fell, but they now thought it would occur
at the end of forty days, the anniversary of the
day when Christ appeared after his resurrection
to his disciples The speaker said no doubt the
world would laugh at them and heap derision
upon them, but they could bear it all. They
were dead to the world, their belief having Ia :
ken all the life out OF them. They cared not
for all III ings OF this world.
Daring the day all sorts of rumors in relation
to these deluded people prevailed throughout
the city One was, that they expected to ascend
from the root of certain named houses and
another, that they would hold meeting on the
Park in the evening. Persons who assembled
in these places to get a sight at the Nlerites,
