A Clerical Imposture.

The following case was related to me
by a Bishop of the Church of England.
There was a man who had oficiated as
a clergyman in a large town for about
fifteen years. At the lapse of that
time it was accidentally discovered that
he was an imposter. A new Bishop
came Tor the man went into anew diocese ;
anyhow, the request came that he would
produce his letters of orders. Letters
Of orders are rather precious and re
markable documents; if once they are
lost they cannot be replaced. The
pseudo clergyman replied, expressing
his great regret that, IN tine course of a
removal, the letters had been hopeless
ly mislaid, but hoped that the length
of time during which he had served in
the diocese would be considered a
sufficient voucher. The Bishop wrote
back to say that he regretted
the loss Of the letters of orders, and
that it would be quite sufficient if he
gave exact dates, which would enable
him to refer to the diocesan registry.
The imposture then became known. 1t
was a matter of great anxiety to settle
what had best be done under such cir
cumstances. OF course a very large
number of marriages had been per-
formed during these 10 years not n OF
which was legal. The first suggestion
was that an act should be passed max
ing these marriages legal. There were
objections to this curse. 1t was consid-
cred that an immense deal of pain would
be caused by the publication of the inva-
lidity ofthese marriages, and that pecul-
lar hardships would be done in the case
of children, where one or both of the
parents had died in the meantime. On 6
certain evening there was q solemn dis.
cussion between the Bishop of the do
cese and the Home Secretary, the result
of which was a communication to the
villainous false clergyman that, if he
left England Immediately and forever,
proceeding would not be taken, but that
otherwise he would be prosecuted

in the muscles of the extrem:ties; he Is
terribly restless, and his urgent cry Is
for water to quench his thirst and that
some one might rub his limbs, and thus
relieve the muscular spasm. The pulse
is rapid and very weak, the respirations
are hurried and the patients voice be-
husky. His c-ountenance Is
pinched and the integument of his
body feels inelastic and doughty
while the skin of his hands anC
feet becomes wrinkled and purplisl
in color. The duration of this, the

fifteen hours; but so long as the pulse
can be felt at the wrist there are gooC
hopes of the sick persons recovery. The
weaker the pulse becomes, the nearer
the patient is to the third, or collapse,

The patient remains terribly restless,
longing only for sleep, and that he may
be supplied with water. His intellect
is clear but he seldom expresses any anx.
iety regarding worldly affairs, although
fully conscious of the dangerous condi-
tion he is in. Sleep and a plentiful
supply of drinking water are the sole
desires of a person passing through 6

A Prophecy.

The tides are caused mainly by
the moon, as it were, catching hold
OF the water as the earth revolves
around on its axis. This must
cause friction on the earth as it re-
wolves, and friction, as every one
knows, causes loss Of power
There is reason to suppose that the
action Of the tides is slowly, but
surely lessening the speed of the
eartl''s rotation, and consequently
increasing the length Of the day,
and that this action will continue
until the earth reyolves on its own
axis in the same time that the moon
takes to revolve round the earth.
Then the day, instead Of being
twenty-four hours as now, will be
about twenty-eight days, and the.
earth will be exposed to the full
blaze Of the sun for about fourteen
days at a time. The change this,
will bring about on the face Of the
earth can hardly be exaggerated.
All life, both animal and vegeta-
BILE, will be destroyed all water
will be evaporated the solid rocks
will be scorched and cracked, and
the whole world reduced to q drea-;
ry and barren wilderness. It is
by some that the moon
has already passed through all this,
hence its shattered and bare look
ing surface. That the earth, being

There are Republicans who, ia
their honest disappointment at the

selves with the prediction that 1fr..
Cleveland will be 'overrun and trod-

Cleveland will get along quite q.
readily with the South as with the
North in this respect, and that his
tirmness and his principles willebe
found adequate to deal Justly and
wiselywith both. So far as the South
is concerned, we believe the lead
ers there will expect only that the
fact of Southern birth or Southern
popularity shall not be an obstacle
to the selection Of appointees to the
Federal service where fitness is
conceded. Unfortunately, this is
