1t is beyond our conception why
ministers Of the gospel though they
be fanatics--will from time to time
arise before an Intelligent audience,
and under the guise of preaching tie
word of God, draw comparisons and
form conclusions that do the grossest
injustice to a peaceable and law -abid-
ing community. These men, h0wev-
er, invariably overdraw the picture
and the close of the sermon--if such
it can properly be called-leaves the
audience in doubt of the mans sanity.
Such must have been the experience
of the Rev. A. T. Pearson after his
recent sermon at Indianapolis, Ind,
wherein he refers to the Indian mas
sacro of 1862 and the cyclone of 1881
as yisitations from God because of
