THE YEAR 1884.

By Editor

This year, now drawing to its close, will happily crush with its ponderous weight some of the follies of a few prophetic cranks who have assigned great events, even the coming of the Lord himself, to this year. This is one of the satisfactions to be derived from the rapid flight of time, whose course we would almost fain arrest at times to give us longer opportunities for the work we have in hand. And if the men referred to would only learn from their failures to desist from their senseless work, the satisfaction would be greater still.
