A.NO2'HEL: PROIHECY
Some of the papers are republisl,ing
''Mother Symptoms Proplecy.' There
is another old prophecy not SO familiar
to the general reader. 1t is quoted Ivy
DR.. Cummings III TIE End, page 1875.
This prediction was found in the Au-
gustine Library, at Rome, dated 1873,
and is us follows:
''COncerning the waves of the Mys-
tic Ship: by Rudolph Gtlthie,; August,
1873. Before the middle of tile nine
teentl century there will be seditions
everywhere in Europe. Republics will
he erected; kings, mobiles, ecciesiastics
will be Slain, and regulars will desert
their converts. Famines, pest lences
and several earthquakes will dev;tst;te
the State. Rome will lose it's scrpire
through the attacks Of sU-called pl i's-
ophers. The Pope will lie taken NV y
ny his own people, and the Church,
placed under tribute, will be deprived
Of its temporal goods. After Il short
time the Pope will not lie. a Nort.-
ern Prince, with IL huge army, will rush
through Europe, will overthrow re-
publics and exterminate all rebels.
Ills sword, guided by God, will valiant
~ defend the Church of Christ; will
fight Tor the orthodox faith, and will
bring nider his sway the Mahcmetan
power. 4 New and Last Faster from
the shore, on sign from heaven, will
come IN the simplicity OF heart al Il doc
trlne Of Christ; ard peace will have re-
turned to the age"
This is not exact lis to date, since the
events did not all occur before the mid
dle Of the nineteenth century, but the
prediction is fulfilled us to the erection
of Republics and the loss of the tenn
poral power. The Mahometan power
is also virtually brought under the
sway Of the "Nortl,ern Prince,' and it
is possible that R;1SSi;. may continue
her conqursts soon and republicanism
and true religion be set up throughout
Eurole.
The following prophecy, whicl, we
find revived in the New York Observer,
has also had a remarkable fulhlln.ent.
1t is taken from an old volume Of pre-
dictions and bears date 1853. 1t APP
pearcl in l.ittell's Living Age, No.
400, October, 1853, just. prior to the
Crimean War. What is most re,narku-
bic is that it hits So exactly as to dates:

HE'LL 1ocAThD Ar LAST.
Father Walsh, OF Albany, thus lays
down the Rom IN Catholic doct. ine on
the subj ,'ct Of Hell:
lie says that although the Church it.
self. has meyer defined anything us Ger
tain concerning the lire and location of
hell opinions have prevailed in the
Church on both subject, AMI from
these Opinion it would bc neither wise
nor safe to depart The lire Of hell is !.
material fire, and hell is situated in the
bowels of the earth.
llcine, in his Iopk lie Gru,,d, after
describing that hell is filled with long
rows OF huge black kettles, III which
sinners are boiled, proceeds as follows:
''ln one row were placed Christian
sinners, and, incredible as it may seem,
their number was anything but small,
and the dev Is polied the fires up under
them with especial good will. In the
next row were Jews, who continually
screamed and cried and were OCCASION
ally mock, Il by HE iien,lS, which some
timesisev!,e'l odd enouyl,-:ls, for in
stance, when Il fat, wheeZy old pawn
broker complained Of the heat, and IL
little devil poured several buckets Of
cold water Oh his head. that he might
realize what !: refreshing benefit hap
tism was. In the third row sat the
heather, who, like the Jews, could take
no part in salvation and must burn for
ever. | heard one OF the latter, us Il
sqnare-bult, surly devil put fresh Goals
under his kettle, cry out from his pot,
Spare me! | WAS once Socrates,
the wiscst Of mortals-I taught Truth
and Justice, and sacrificed lily life Inr
virtue But the clumsy, stupid devil
went on with his work, and gruml lsl.
oh, shut up there! All lleatllens m. I It
burn, and we can't make an eNcepti u,
for the sake Of 4 single man,"
Thus they differ. Wouldn't it be
well for Congress to fit out that Expl ~
ing Expedition and settle the disputed
question:?
The Governor has appointed the fol-
lowing State board Of immigration, TN

We congratulate our friend Hunting.

II few years ago his neighbors thrust
the office Of constable upon him and
now the Governor has taken him by the
hair AMI lifted him up higher. Mean
