Destruction of the World.
So persi-stent are mauv people in tlie be
lief that the end of all things draweth
nigli, and so unconcerned are the majority
of mankind concerning tint great catJistro-
phe, that it may he luolitahle to give the
subject some coiisideratioii. According to
th(* latest autliority, the time fi.xed upon is
1868. The day Inns been postjioued I'rom
time to time, (*ither from some error in the
calculation, nr liceansc* there were yet
righteous men enmigli in the woiid to .save
it. But we have not heeii widnmt alarm
ing jiorl(*iits. When aliller first aiinoune-
exl the time, a comet swept acre.-i.s the hea
vens, shaking its liery tail, iiiid jierplexing
iiiitioiis. Since then, anolher of tlie.se
strange visitants has come and gone; wars
of unexanqiled proportions have h(*i*n wag
ed ; and famine and pestilence liave Ibl-
lowed in their train. Noav, however, ‘he
great Dr. Cuniming has sjioketi, and—to
his own satisfaction at last—coiielusivelv
jiroved that the day of (iteat'rrilmla-
lioti” is about to break on our astonished
vision.
The tendency that exists in tlie hitman
mind to pry into the furnre is something
marvelous, esjiecially w hen taken in con
nection with the slender foiindation on
which the. wildest thooiies are built. (>ue
or two p.sssagi's in Daniel, .‘iiid about the
same number in the Apocalypse of 8t.
Johu appear to have served as the hasis^
the one for the lime, and the other for tlie |
certainty of the fintil destruction of the
world. St. Peter also refv rs to the siih-
EII ■ E w • *• —— .» f
T'bat reinarkabh*. .•»eri(*s of proph(*si('S in tlu*
24th ebapter of St. Matthew' is likewise
thought Ijy some to denote tlie destrnction
of the visibh: world, hut as th(*y were to
come to pass before that generation ])assed
away, and none of them were fulfilled in a
literal manner, they have not been pressed
so industriously in the service.
Wliile we have an abiding faith in the
Bihh', we have but little respect fer any
interpretation put ujioii il by visionaries and
