THE MILLENNIUM.
The Tenth Of July the Day Fixed.

AS we are so near the 10th day Of July,
on which day Mr.. James SO confidently
predicts the second coming Of Christ OH
earth, 1t may be interesting to our rea-
,ders to know what it is, exactly, which
ne expects to happen not as many sup

truction OF all things, but. the millennium

who are to reign with Christ on earth.
and OF the destruction of all those who
deny Christ.
! Mr.. James does not make any preten-
isions 10 the gift of prophecy i'm this mat
ter, but bases his theory Oh calculations
from Holy writ. in the first place. and
from distinct personal revelations i'm the
second. According TO his theory the
Idate OF the Christian era is three years
behind the real date. as Christ was born
three years previous to the date now
assigned as the commencement Of the
Christian era.
Mr.. j. asserts that the Milleritcs were
correct in all but the three years miscal-
culation in their date of the second ad-
vent, and that this will be proven on the
tenth Of july.
The revelations of Mr.. j. have been
visions i'll the night, six in number, clear
and distinct, the last one within three
nights, and unmistakably shawdowinr
forth the immediate coming OF most por
tentious events.
That Mr.. James has not lately promul-
gated his views publicly is owing TO the
total lack of faith evinced by those who
formerly attended his discourses. OF his
own faith, those who hear him speak on
the subject will not doubt.
