~ THE END OF THE WoRLD.-Prof
swormstedt, the professed Indiana pro-
phet, predicts that the Gospel dispense
ton will expire at midnight on the 18th
of next November, when the nations
will be ushered into judgment period of
40 years duration, alter which the earth
will lie renovated with FIRE, by which
the wicked will be destroyed, and the
good alone will be preserved.
"Such predictions are wicked, as they
have the effect of alarming superstitious,
credulous and ignorant people. These
professed prophets are either ignorant
fanatics or wicked people. AS if with
the view of alarming the people, this
protested prophet has fixed the time on
The 18th of November at which time the
earth in its revolution around the sun
passes through the belt of meteors,
which furnished such amagni6cent dis
play on the 18th OF November 1888.
''Should this occur ON the night of the
18th of November, those who credit this
prophecy, would be uselessly alarmed,
and many i'll effects might be produced.
We hope that the people generally will
have sufficient good sense not to suffer
themselves 10 be alarmed by such alb
surd predictions. The Bible assures us
that 10 man knoweth, not even the an.
gels in Heaven, when the Son of Man
come,h 10 judge the world.
.Our advice is, to remain calm and
serene, and pay no attention to the pre-
dic,ion of false porphets. against which
the scriptures caution rs"

follows, concerning the lecture, in very
complimentary terms:-

Friday night, the 18th instant, subject
s.The Beauties of American Scenery"
The hall YVES crowded and many were
compelled to 60 away, there being no room
even to stand. For one hoJr our people
were held spell-bound by the wonderful
and magical power of The orator. His de-
scription of the grand beauties Of orr
skies, woods, water falls, &C.. as compar-
cd to those of the old world, were simply
sublime, awakening in all who were for
tunate enough to hear hin-a new love
of country-and stamping him as one OF
the most finished men OF our age. MIR.
Editor, pardon my enthusiasm, for as
sure you in all my long life, never before
have heard such beautiful utterances as
fell from the lips of Mr.. Grove. l write
this IL honor OF a truly great genius. aud
may God take him i'll his especial care.
