Oh, in the compari· son, how did the boasted splendor of the grandest of the Roman Imperial theatric displays, exhibited in the proud capital of the world, fade into meanness ! And more especially was its pre-emi- nent grandeur manifest in this additional circumstance characterizing it, that the evangelist was admitted, as it were, be- hind the scenes in the figuration of the great mundane dran.a; and, in what past in the secret recess of the Holy of Holies, permitted to behold -Him, and His acting, who was the Almighty Overruler of all. I have already just hinted at this matter; and I must now beg for a little while to detain the reader, that he may consider with me beforehand somewhat in detail the grand lessons that thus, as the drama proceeded, were set before St. John. And, first, there was thus manifested to him the real origin of events in the throne of God and of the Lanb. Hence, he saw, the lightnings, thunderings, and voic.es,.that had their echos in the changes of this world : hence the commission of angels with their invisible and mysterious agencies : hence the casting of the burn- ing coals of wrath on this earth's inhabit- ants. Man is apt in these things to look only to second causes. The inner-temple vision, in the exact spirit of Bible history, directed the apostle's eye to the great first cause of them all, in the glorious high throne of the s~nctuary. Secondly, there was thus strikingly marked out to St. John, the v ry rea:5on:s and motives which dictated these coun- sels of Him that sat upon the throne, thus ordering all things. It is the true and sublime saying of the great philosopher, that the "divine mind is the sensorium of the universe." And, as the evangelist marked what was said and what was done in the inner temple, he might see that there was nothing of all that passed on earth unobserved of the divine mind, no- thing unfelt by it. Thither, he perceived, came up the memorial of the sins of its inhabitants, while immature as yet, and when fully ripe; each with its own call for judgment : thither, above all, what concerned his own people, his saints of the church militant. Not a sigh could escape from, nor a suffering vex them, but its pulse was evidently felt there. Thither tended, as to their proper centre, the cries of the souls slain beneath the altar; thi- ther, as ·sweet incense, the prayers and adorations of the saints. And then mark the result! It was on the cries of the martyrs rising up that the political hea- vens, the supremacy of their oppressors, was ~een to pass away. It was in requital of its oppression of the saints, that great Babylon was made to drink of the wine- cup ·of the wrath of God. And amidst all the commotions and changes, d1e woes and judgments on the earth, he witnessed how declarations by the Spirit wer& made, and beaven-sent visions given, from time to time, to assure his people of the pro- vision made for their safety, and that all things should work together for their good. - --... - 59 tion, we are told, they are employed as ministering spirits to the good, destroying spirits t9 the evil. Similar was the view presented to St. John in this prophecy. Numbers of them, indeed, without num· her were seen engaged in the heavenly temple in contemplation and praise. But to others he saw given <;ommissions in the sphere of active employment: and in fulfilment of them they appeared after· wards directing the tempests, sounding the trumpets, pouring out the vials, scat· tering the fire, gathering the vintage.- The language indeed is figurative ; but the truth I speak of can scarce be mista- ken as exhibited under it. Yet once more it was evident from what passed within, how in time, as well as in measure and manner, every event was ordered,-even to the minutest ac· curacy. It needed not that there should be any dial-plate in the sanctuary. That infinite mind was seen to be to itself its own measure of succession. There was marked the passage and the progress of time, alike in its minutest n~oments and largest cycles; the hour, and the day, and the month, and the year ; the Time, Times, and half a Time ; one day as a thousand·years, and a thousand years as one day ;-the exact and fittest moment of loosing or restraining, of deliverance or judgment ;-the hour known to no man, no, not to the angels in heaven, of the harvest and the vintage, of the mys- tery of God ending, the consummation of all things, the day of judgment. Papal Troubles. Pope Pius TX., as we glean from the foreign papers, is bot yet at the end of his tribulations. He hoped to be a peacable reformer, but he overlooked the Jesuits, who have no desire for reform, as well as Austria, too, by whom the Jesuits are sus- tained. It is already insinuated that the Pope, already disheartened by continued opposition, has renounced his projects of amelioration. But the Augsburg '' Ga- zette," in repe&ting this, lends the rumor no manner of countenance. "Very strange reports," it says, " are now in circulation in reference to the Pa· pal renunciation of the work of pontifical reform, to which by his counsel, his bro· ther, Count Mastai de Sinigaglia has al- so been persuaded. "The liberals have met to-day to de- liberate on a petition to the. Pope which is to be sent into the.provinces, where 300,000 signatures are expected to be ob- tained. The object of this petition is, to lay before his Holiness such reforms as he may yet make without compromising the dignity of his office. It urges indeed the propriety of the Pope's throwing him- self into the arms of the reform party. Pub- lic discontent against the Jesuits is mani- festing itself with renewed energ-y-cop- ies of the portrait of Clement XIV. are everywhere gratuitously distributed."- Further accounts say, that on the 6th of July, the city of Rome was in full insur- rection against the authors of the re-ac· tionnry decrees, who are completely ter· rified, inasmuch that they have consented that the Pope should carry out the long projected measure of instituting a muni- cipal guard, to the command of which the Pope was about to be appointed. The enthu.iasm of the people, for a m?ment check~d, is now breaking forth wtth renewed vJgor, and everything con- firms the belief that the retrograde party have lost all chance of success, provided his Holiness has only due countenance beyond his borders, and the cabinet of. the Tuilleries be restrained by a feeling of shame from becoming the auxiliary of the Metternich beyond the Alps.

In 1066, "Egypt and Arabia, countries not subject to earthquakes, were violently convulsed in November, nod a plague speedily followed, which authors affirm 11wept away one half the inhabitants. This was attended with famine." In 1068 was a famine. "The country in Eng- land, from Durham to York, was depopulated. Men 11ubsisted on dogs, cats, and every unclean thing; or perished, and their bodies were left to putrify on the earth." In 1077, "famine and pl11gue raged in Con- stantinople with such IT'Ortality, that the living could not bury the dead." "In 10~4 raged famine and pestilence ; the latter cut off the whole army of Emperor Henry, in Rome." "Jn 1085, Rut~sia was laid waste by locusts and the plague." "In 1091, many viol nt tempests happened, which levelled buildings; 600 houses were blown down in Lonrlon ; swarms of locu11ts darkened the sun, and the next year a plague raged, which the hi~torian relates to have arisen from the pu- trifaction of their bodies." "The summer of 1094 was very rainy. The plague at the same time raged iu England, Gaul, and Germany." In 1099, a " terrible inundation spread over the low lands in Kent, belonging to Earl Good- win, and which never having been recovered, now form the shoals called ' Goodwin Sands,' of dangerous navigalion. A severe tlrought fcl- lowed, and pestilence and famine in varioJs place11." "The inundation is said to ha'e drowned in Hfllland 100,000 persons." A da:k day is a) o mentioned in this year. In 1112, " there was an extraordinary rece s of the water in tbe Briti11h Channel for a whole duy; fish died in the water, and domestic fowls took Right intfl the woods." "In November, 1l13, many hou!1es in Anli- och were swallowed up in a chasm rent in the earth." In January, the following year, various places snffered by shocks of the earth, and in 1117, all It>~ly was shaken for forty days. In 1114 was a "severe drought, and a singu- lar recPss of the ocean left the rivers dry. 01·t. 15th, people walked over the Thames between London Bridge and the Tower.

Terrible M the famine ~n Italy, and in England so many people perished with hunger, that dead bodies lay" in the highways unburied." "It was com- p~ted that one-third of the people perished." "Knighton mentions the sun's changing its form in 1133, and adds that a darkness happened, which rendered a candle necet~!1ary in the day time." In 1165, in Sicily, 12,000 people perished by an inundatiun. In 1181, "Denmark was almost laid waste by excessive rains, famine, and pestilence, while Germany lost half of its inhabitants by . the plague." Some allowance must be made for over-cstima tes. " In 1185 is recorded a most violent earth- qnRke over Europe. Calabria was overturned, and thousands perished. On the Adriatic, a wholtl city was swallowed up, and the shock was felt to the Baltic." "In 1186, Russia and Poland were desolated by locusts and pestilt:nce." In 1193, "in England an acute pestilential fe- ver was epidtlmic, and left in health scarcely a number of persons sufficient to tend the sir.k. The usual formil of burial were neglected, and dead bodies were thrown into graves in piles." "In 1220, the plague was so fatal in Damietta, that authors relate, three persons only survived out of 70,000. "In 1221, Polr to inquiries, we would remark, that in every number or the " Herald " we de11ign to have one or more sermons, as we have bad thus far.

Himes :-It is some time since I wrote you last. Yet it was not for w11nt of a min~ to w~ite, but for lack of ability to write anythmg whiCh would be of 11dvantage to you, or the cause you advocate. I rejoice that God h11s seen it for his glory to a~sign you the position which you occupy, in advocating a doctrihe which ha? so long l~in dormant, and eclipsed by the vam and delustve hope of the world's conversion, by the means which have been and are now used for that purpose. I am convinced, that this doctrine of the con- version of the world, has proved mo're detrimental to the cause of righteousness and truth, than any other one P.rror which ever intlil!ted the church. Many' have professed rehgion from worldly mo- tives, so that the church has become lumbered with a large number who seek no hiuher gratifi- cation than that derived from the pl~asures and honors of the world ; and who are entirely re- gardless of the things which are above, and of the world which is to come. Consequently, when anything calculated to dispel this dangerobs state of thing;; is promulgated, the sensitiveness of this portion of the church is touched, and indubitable evidence is given that their feelin"s have been wounded in their tenderest part. "' Christ has commanded us to lay up our trea- !lure in heaven-that is, in the world to come. But instead of doing this, the church has been long engaged in laying up treasures for this world. Christ taught his disciples to preach the good news of the kingdom to come. But the church has been long engaged in preaching the good news of a kingdom already come. And thus has the go!:' pel heen perverted, and many of the I003t valuable truths in the Bible have been either entirely lost ~ight of, or wilfully set a~ide. We are told hy some of our modern teachers, that we shall obtain our victory over death when we die. Paul tells us • that we shall obtain it at our resurrection-at the appearing of Christ. W~ are directed by the Savior to pray, "Thy kingdom come." Hut the chun~h says, that the kingdom has come. So, when wt> read the Bihle, nod witness the manner in which its truths are neglected and perverted, we almo.-t despair of awaldng any 'to a right apprehension of them, or of inducing any to hear on the subject. I re- joice, therefore, that you have thus far been enabled to stand, while engaged in building up the hedge which has been so long thrown down. ··And believe me, my brother, when I say, I am satisfied that you have pursued a course in ac- cordance with the will of God. The view!! you have given us in the "Her:tld," from time to time. I fully approve of. And I design no flat- tery when I say, thut there is no paper wiffiin the circle of my acquaintance more free from errors than the" Hernld." And my daily prayer is, that you may be supported in the truth, and continue to disseminate it until Christ shall come. It is as evident as the sun at noon-day, that much good has been accomplished, by the effect which the doctrine of the Seco'nd Advent has produced on the minds of rnaoy sincere Christians. You will not find many of these, if any, supporting the groundless fables of the world's conversion, the nations' glory, or of our conque~t of death, before this last enemy of mankind shall he des- troyed. Go on, then, my brother, bring your opponents to the Bible, compel them to prove their doctrine hy that sole arbiter of our faith, and depend upon it, that they must yield the victory, sooner or later. Gon and the BIBLE' is your strength; and while you rely on them, you will never filii. Your enemies, though numerous, will lidl before you as Dagon fell before the nrk of God,. and all their plots and evil thoughts will, in the end, re- coil on themselves, and become snares for their own feet. Fear them not, my brother. Let God and the Bible be your motto. As ever, yours in the same faith and hope. Low Hampton (N. Y.), Sept. 9th, 1847. J,ETTER FRO~ BRO. W. WATKINS. Dear B1·o. Himes :-That the" Herald" ha", for the best 'of reasons, been decidedly opposed to entering upon unprofitable controversies on subjects not necessarily connected with the great work to which it has been providentially called, is a fact which its columns will abundantly demon- strate. 'I'hiil manifest forbearnnce entitles it to the favorable C"nsideration of all who would nQt have the Advent churches di~tracted, and ~plit into factions, contending about doctrines which have long divided Christendom, and concerning which there is no reasonable probability that Christians will now, any more than they have hitherto done, see eye to eye. ·why, then, will not brethren permit the " Herald " to proceed in the even tenor of its way? Why do they so needlessly provoke a controversy, w~ich will, if persisted in, not only be unproducttve of good (a~ controversies u~ually are), but produce, as its lea!lt injurious result, an alienation ()f feeling among those who, of all people in the world, should at this time be idiasolubly linked together by the bond.J of Christian affection ? Can tht>y not 1!86 that they have everything to lose, and nothing to gain, by introducing and discussing among Adventists subjects which once kept them apart as sects, and which, from time immemo- THE ADVENT HERALD. rial, have been the cause of many a bitter aud fruitless controversy? Can they persuade them- selves that they may form and publish their creed, or views, of the meaning of certain pas~ages of Seripture, pnd at the ~arne time deno•mce those who may honestly differ from them as having fallen into heresy and apostacy, without detri- ment to the t~ause, and to theruselves? Do they not know that Ad\u00b7entists can and will discrimi- nate between the as~umptions of men and the infitllible teachings of inspiration? Do they not know, that to arrogate to themselves the whole truth on any subject which th11y 'may namP., and hold up as apostates from the faith once delivered to the saints those who dissent from them, is an unfnrlunate method uf convincing the judgment, and reclaiming the erratic wanderers? It is clear, that during the seventh month move- ment, when we thought the Lord was very near, we had no time for the controversies now de- prer.ated. By what means, then, have brethren comA to the conclu~ion, that they now have time for such controversies? By what means have they ascertained, that what was wrong in '44, in view of the near approach of the King of kings, is right in '47? The sooner we get back, in reference to this matter, to the position we occupied when our hearts were beating high for t!.e glories of the coming kingdom, and cease to urge our opinion~ oracularly upon our brethren, and arrive at the only safe conclusion-to agree to differ in love- the better will it be fur us as individuals and as a pe1•ple. We find no fault with the " Herald" for taking a decided stand in meeting the emergency, when it is manifest that no other alternative is left it. Let a Christian forbearance, and a dig- nified courtesy, continue to characterize its course. Let its only aim be to glorify God, and promote the best interP.sts of his people, in this critical period, and it will be sustained. Baltimore (.A-Id.), Sept. lOth, 1847. LETTER FROM BRO._N. M. CATLIN. THE OLD TENT WEST. Dear Bro. Himes:-The Big Tent was erected in this city the 21st in~t., for the first time in the State, or west of the Lakes. 'Vhen we carne to the pt·ace, unaided by means or friends, tn assist and sympathize with us in pulolishing the glad tidings, we were reminded of your first mission to the eity of New York, when you, with your fellow laborers, made the floor of your rented plflce of worship your lodging, and the provision store your boarding place, at your own charges, for the sake of the gospel. But we read, that "the Son of man had not where to la-y his head," that "the sPrvant is not above his master," and that" if we suffer with him, we shall reign with him." Therefore we endure all thing~, ttnd glory in sufferings, in net,es!>ities, in reproaches, that we may obtain the salvation which is in our Lurd Je~us Christ, with eternal glory. You and the reader:~ of the" Herald" will be interested in, and see the importance of, our first efi'ort with the Big Tent in the West, when 1 state that we commenced our meeting in thii! city, which contains over 15,000 inhabitanlil, without being able ·to find a single Advent be- liever in it; llro. J. M. 'Wilson, one of your sub- scribers, being absent.' Our meeting has now been in progress five days. Bro. Chandler, Sears, Daniels, Butler Morley, and Catlin were present to preach ; Bro. Morley, however, had to leave us last evening, in consequence of sick- nes!l in his family. We have succeeded in calling out !orne six or eight friends of the c11use, and crertting an inter- est to hear on the subject of the" ble~sed hope." What the final result will be, we cannot tell; but the p_rospect i11 favorable. At all events, we will try (o do our duty faithfully. We purpose to ('.On- tinue the meeting another week, over the Sah- hath; the Tent will then go to supply some of the calls, where there seems to be a wide door opened for doing good. Chicago (Ill.), .!lug. 26th, 1847. [We commend this enterprize of our brethren West. 1\Ia y the LNd prosper them in their labors to do good.] Rro. R. V. LVON writes from Whitingham (Vt.), Sept. 17th, 1847 :- Beloved, you who are looking for the restora- tion of all things, spoken of by tile mouth of all the holy prophets, believing the period is nigh at hand when it will take place, <~hould you not be diligent in proclaiming this truth to all, as y(lo have opportunity? If you neglect to do so, will not the blood of souls be required at your hand in the burning day ? Shall the Lord be long-suf- fering towards the ungodly wbo shall beheve on him and that long-suffering salvation, and you, wh; profess to have his Spirit, have no forbear- ance or salvation for them? I ask, what reason have such to believe, that they are accepted of the Father on account of what Jesus has done? How can i~ be said to them in the day of reck- oning, "Well done, good .and _faithful ae~vant I" Beloved, think not of gomg mto the kmgdom, unlet~s you have the spirit o~ Christ, wh!ch is the mind and disposition of Chnst; and while mercy IingP.rs, this spirit will leac.l you to pat fortb,11 helping hand in giving to our fellow creatures the soul-stirring truth, "The hour of hiil judgment is come!"

TROWBRIDGE writf's fl•om Sheboygan Falls, Aug. 1st, 18{7 :-, Dear Bro. Himes :..,You will probably re- c·ollect that I called at your office last summer a few moments, 11nd informed you that I was a deacon in the Baptist church in this place, and nothwithst: ding my views on the Advent, was in good standing in the church, and a teaeher of a Bihle-class. l did not inform you of the fitet, that I have been a prt>acher of the doctrine for nine years; und r feel that the judgment day will show that good has been done. I continue to preach thi:~ doctrine, and intend to do so until the Lord comes; but if I fall asleep, l hope tr. rise with all tho~e who have died in faith. There are a number of good, pious Adventists in our county. If the Lord permit, I l'lhall go next Lord's day, fifteen milEs on filOt, although 57 years of age, to preach, hy request, to a people whom I have never addressed. Mny the Lord bless the word to the salvation of Hll who may come to hear. I receive the " Herald " regularly, and esteem it more highly than I do any either paper. Not one of them lays an hour in the otlice. Your friend and brother. Bro P. LrVINGSTUN writts from Cleveland (0.), Sept. 8th, 1847 :- Dear Bro. Himes :..,I notice in the" Herald" a call for me to go to Noya Scotia. Situated as h\ow am, it would be impossible for me to com- ply with the call. I should rejoice if some bro- ther would go there ; ~he expense of going would ba but small, and I think it probable that the Ad- vent brethren there would ~upport a faithful min- ister. I should be willing to do something to fur- ther thi~ object. Should time continue, I may he enaloled to go in the spring. You have rny pray- ers and best wishes that you may have a con- tinuance of grace and faith in the Lord's pron1i.ses. Please gtve notice, that my address is Cleve- land, Ohio. OBITUARY. "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord." At our recent meeting in New Milford, Ct., I was informed, fur the fir8t time, of the death of our beloved 8ister S. M. \V ARDAN. She was a firm believer in the advent of the Savior nigh at hand. She wa!l Rlso faithful, liberal, and de- nlted. In her denth, the Httle flock iu that place have lost u valuable member. But their loss is her !fain. She sleeps; hut soon she will rise io the first resurrectivn, to reil!n with Christ, and with the faithful of all ages.- 1J. v. H. ~fiscellan eo us. NEITHER Tms NOR THAT.
