Golden Rule.


Much apprehension has been occasioned
throughout America from the announcement
made by Professor Proctor that the return
in nineteen years Of the great comet Of last
summer will cause the destruction of the
EARTH But while people are becoming so
strangely exercised over this announcement,
an event of far more serious Importance,
which is taking place to-day, seems to be al
most wholly overlooked. The nature os this
most vital subject can be best explained by
relating the following experiences:
Bishop 4. 0. Haven, known to the entire
land, was unaccountably awakened one
night out Of . sound sleep, and lay awake
until morning. His mind seemed unusually
active, aud he not only reviewed his past
life, which had bcen an eventful one, but
laid plans for the future. He did not feel
especially i'll, but could not account for the
unusual activity Of his brain. nor for the
restlessnes which seemed to possess him.
In the morning he had but little appetite,
but was apparently well in other respects.
In few days, however. he began to feel
restless and morbid, although he tried earn
estly to overcome the feeling which had
taken possession Of him. But try - he
would the shadow Of sonie evil seemed to
follow him. and he was conscious Of =
gradual sinking and wasting away Of all his
physical faculties. He had been An earnest
and diligent worker. and in his Esal frs-
qusstly ovsr-taxsd his strength, and being
