a Dreadful Prophecy.

The tides are caused mainly by the
moon, as it were, catching hold of the
water as the earth revolves around its
axis. This must cause friction on the
eerth as it reyolyes. and friction, as every
one knows, causes loss of power.
There is reason to suppose that the ac-
ton of the tides is slowly but surely
lessening the speed of the earth's rota-
ton and consequently increasing the
length of the day, and that this action
will continue until the earth revolves
on its own axis in the same time that
the moon takes to revolye 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 ex-
aggerated. All life, both animal and
vegetable, will be destroyed; all water
will be evaporated, the solid rocks will
be scorched and cracked and the whole
world reduced to a dreary and barren
wilderness. Ii is supposed by some
that the moon has already passed
through all this, hence its shattered
and bare-looking surface. That the
earth, being so much larger, has more
quickly acted upon the oceans which
once were upon the moons surface and
stopped almost entirely its revolution
round its own axis, thus causing it to
have day equal to twenty-eight of our
days, and the heat of the sun has all
ready done TO it what in future ages it
will do to the earth.-Harper'S Weekly.
