THE END OF TIE WORLD.

A Lively AND INTERESTING PROGRAMME
FOR THE NEXT EIGHT YEARS.
Anew Canadian book of the prophet
ic sensation order, is thus sketched by
/ the Detroit Post:
Coming wonders expected between
1867 and 1870" are fearful to contem-
plate, if the prediction thereof can be at
all relied upon. The data of the pro-
phecv are found, as they always are, in
The book of Daniel and the revelations.
In the first place, Louis Napoleon is, it
appears, "the last head of the Roman
! Empire" Among other proofs is the
fact that the term Louis in Latin is Lu-
dovicus, and the numbers correspond
inc to the letters Of that name are L

u SIS 666; that the Greek datiye
Napoleonti, in an equally ingenious
manner, gives 666, and that Louis Ma
poleon Bonaparte, in Hebrew, also
makes 6e6.-But there is also an iden-
tity between Napoleon and the Greek
from Appoieon, and the Greek word mai
truly, hence Napoleon is the "True
Appoleon,n Now 666 is the number of
the Wild Beast in Revelation xiii, I.
Hence the present Emperor of the
French is the last head Of the Roman
Empire, who is soon to make a seven
years covenant with the Jews. Then
he is to absorb ten European Kingdoms,
being the ten horned beast Of the 'pro-
pheey." A great agitation in the
Church militant will arise, the Jewish
temple will be restored, and the sane
tuary cleansed for Christ's coming.
These are the wonders of the first year.
In the second year, there will be an in.
creased activity of the three frog-like
demon spirits of Infidelity, Democratic
despotism (of which, perhaps, the Con-
necticut election is the commencement,
and Jesuitical propagandism; Napoleon
will make war upon Egypt and conquer
it the Turkish Empire will be dissolv-
ed, and the @four horned kingdoms
of Greece, Egypt, Syria and Thrace he
re-established. The third year opens
with the resurrection of all the deceas
ed saints who, with $4,000 watchful
christians, are to be caught up together

an unparalleled religious revival, and in
successive years, hail and fire, mingled
with blood, are to scorch third of the
earth Michael and Satan are to renew
their war, the Christians are to flee to
awilderness and be miracolusly support

months of universal war, third of the
