THE ATHENS GEORGIAN: JUNE 5, 1877.
Armageddon.
Jif Mn War and Propherlr* ta b* FiMIM.
[Austin (Texas) Statesman.]
In view of the impending conflict in
Europe, the following may interest
your readers: About thirty years
ago,'a gentleniati residing in Middle
Tennessee, and at the time at the head
of one of the largest and moat prosper*
ous institutions of learning in the
South, published what purports to be
a true interpretation of the prophecies
contained in the Bible. The-work
created a profound sensation, for the
author was well known as being in
comparable as a Hebrew and Greek
scholar, 2nd .was respected by theolo
gians everywhere because of his thor
ough knowledge of the sacred writings.
In his work he agrees with all the
eminent commentators up to a certain
lieriml, alter which his interpretations
are entirely different from any ever
made, and his arguments to sustain
them are unique and highly interest
ing. It is remarkable that Don Cas-
tellur, the great Spanish statesman, in
a brilliant article published in the New
York Herald early last year, takes the
,ame ground and entertains the same
opinion that tho author to whom I
have alluded does in regard to the
future of tin's country and the conflict
now commencidg in Europe. Tlmt
these two men should entertain the
same views from positions differing so
widoly, is, to say the least, a remarka
ble coincidence. But what I wish to
call your attention to at this time is
the following remarkable interpreta
tion of one of the prophecies of Ezeki
el: “The Kings of the South shall
push or butt at him, and tho King of
the North shnll come against him like
a whirlwind, with chariots and with
many ships.” Russia is the power
which the King of the South is to
“ push.” The King of the South is
Turkey, on the south of Russia, and
the King of the North is Great Britain.
This is evident, he says, from its
northern position as a great power,
and from the immense naval, as well
as land lorces.it possesses. He says
the attack of England, or Great
Britain, on Russia is to lie great and
furious but finally unsuccessful; for
1’ussia will move right on and more
than gain her purpose. She will con
quer Asia Minor and the Turkish
empire generally, and will advance on
Palestine, and “shall have power over
treasures of gold and silver, and over
all the precious things of Egypt.'
While engaged in these conquests,
“ tidings out of the East and out of
the North shall trouble him.” The
tidings from the East uud the North
may lie the news of the disaffections of
the Papal power on account of the
superiority which Russia gives to the
Greek Church', and on account of holy
places in Judea. The word tidings
- seems also, he says, to indicate great
insurrections. lie is positive that the
Russian empire has two great works
to do: the first is to destroy the Ro
man church in Europe, and the other
to attack the United States. He also
states in his book that before the war
begins for the conquest and annihila
tion of Turkey, the French people
would establish a republic, and assist
the United States at the time Russia
makes the attack. According to this
writer, the present -war inEuropc will
become general, and be the most fear
ful the world has ever witnessed, and
is to take place before’ the 117th day
of the year 1878.

Almost the entire Session* was devo

that measures may be speedily taken

The Secretary of State will also ad
dress a letter to the Hon. John W.

co, directing him to notify the Mexi
can authorities that this government
is finally determined to adopt vigorous
measures tor the suppression of the
disturbances on the frontier of Texas,
which has for so many years rendered
life and property insecure in that lo
cality.
If the correspondence thus op ned
should fail to secure the desired ett!,
