T.he War In the EasI--.More PrOPhe-
eIes TO be Fulfilled.

An article deduoed from iDterpreta-
tions of biblical prophecies published
10 the STATESMAN last May predicted
that Russia would destroy the Turkish
empire in the conflict then commenc-
ing, and that England would engage
in the war and attack Russia with
great fury. The first OF these preqic-
lions has been literally fulfilled, and
the second is evidently near at hand,
and soon mighty tide of woe must
roll over Europe that shall fill the ma
tions of the earth with trouble, such as
was never dreamed of here below.
We again call the attention OF the
curious to a few more predictions per-
tanning to troubles in Europe, as made
in the Armageddon. The attack OF
England is to be great and furious,
but, finally, unsuccessful. "He (Rus-
sia1 shall enter into the glorions land. "
This reveals his advancement into Pal
estine. and the Greek church shall
have charge of the holy places. "He
shall stretch forth his hand also upon
the countries, and the land of Egypt
shall not escape" 'sHe shall have
power over the treasures OF gold and
silver, and over all the precious
things of Egypt" The Libyans
and Philippians shall be at his
feet" The above expressions i'm.
plies the exertion of severe sovereign
ty over Egypt and teaches the uHlim-
tied dominion over Africa in the west
and south, Russia win equal in ex-
tent the old empire of Rome, and will
possess nearly all of Europe and Asia.
Several governments ''shall give their
power and strength unto the beast,
(Russla). That Is, they shall unite
their forces with Russia. These pow
ers are in the south, east, and mid
die of Europe, and embrace Tur-
key, Italy, Germany, and, proba
bly, Austria. These European king
doms and confederates will utterly
destroy the State Church in Europe.
And then ''Thus saith the Lord God,
it shall also come to pass, that at the
Same time shall things come into thy
mind, and thou shalt think an evil
thought, and thou shalt say, l will go
up tu the land of unwalled villages; i
will go to them that are at rest, all OF
them dwelling without walls, aid hav,
ing neither bars nor gates, to take a
spoil and to take prey; to turn thine
hand upon the desolate places that are
now inhabited, and upon the people
that are gathered out of the IA
tions, which have gotten cattle and
goods, that dwell in the midst of the
! land" The land here alluded to is
the United States, and the invasion il
to be made by Russia and other pow
ers enlisted in the war. They will
be utterly defeated and their armies
totally destroyed. England will at
tack Russia before the twenty-seventt
day of this month, and shortly there
after the other nations will be engaged
and deluge the globe with blood.

AUSTIN, April 3, 1878.
The past week shows an increased
activity in all classes of State securi-
ties. and prices have generally been
we'll maintained.
Bonds continue in good demand at
quotations, and the inquiry is unabat-
ed; prices may therefore be safely sald
to be firm, with an apparent upward
tendency.
State warrants are steady, but prices
realized are a shade lower, some lots
haylng changed hands to-day at "a to
% IL. The limited available sup
ply, however, is sufficient to keep tins
security steady at or about present
quotations for some time to come.
Land certificates are in fair demand,
with no material change in prices.
Austin city warrants are quiet but
steady, and prices of last week are re-
peated.
Approved fee accounts continue in
good demand, and prices have slightly
improved for all classes since last re
port. T
Pension certificates continue firm at
prices below, with an upward tenden-
cy, the quarterly issue of the first in
slant producing only temporary de-
preston.

Incurripg a tremendous RIsk.

They incur tremendous risk who
sojourn or emigrate to reside in dis
tricts where malarial disease is preva-
lent, without medicinal means of for
-tifying their systems against the peri
odic scourge. The danger to bilious
subjects, and to those who lack bodily
stamina, is particularly serious. A
preventive and curative agent OF
known anti-malarial efficacy should be
frequently used and constantly kept at
hand by such persons; and on none can
they rely with such certainty of pro-
lection and aid as Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. This grand specific roots out
every vestige of the malarial poison
from the system, and endOws it with
an amount of vital activity and re.
pelling power that nullifies the infiu.
ence of miasma. 1t also prevents and
remedies disorders of the stomach,

TROUBLE ABOUT ROAD DUTY.-
About thirty meE living on the other
side of the rIYer were in the city yester
day, before Justice Neill, on the
charge Of refusing to do road duty un.
der the law requiring men to work the
roads. Mr.. Stone, road overseer,
ordered these men to work on the
Austin aud Bastrop road. They were
subsequently, ordered by Mr.. Binson To
work the LOckhart road, and, living
nearer the Lockhart road than the Bas.
trop, they obeyed Binson's order and
not Stones. The result was that
these thirty men were brought to
town under arrest, and the matter
will be iudicially investigated. The
purpose, probably, is to find out where
these men must perform road duty in
the future.

city property has declined. This lit.
