wrath towards offending children of
men as is recorded OF old in our
Scriptures. Such fragrant disre-
gard of God S sacred laws sometimes
goes unpublished at the time being,
but in this instance it suited the God
of the ihunders to hurl its destruc-
tive bolts at his rcbellious earthly
creatures. Beware young men how
