Dr. Gumming thinks that the fall of Metz, the siege of .Strasbourg, tho present position of Paris, the appearance of the suu, and the recent auroras, betoken the approach of the millennium.
There seems to ho little doubt that there is a regularly organised gang of incendiaries in Auckland. Un the morning of the recent lire, by which the Music Hall was destroyed, when two gentlemen went' to the tire-bell at the top of Wakefield street, to give the alarm, they found the tongue of *tho bell muffled, and made fast inside. This the .fire-hell nearest to the burning, fyns been carefully • tongudtyied before applying the torch. AWmt lingering doubt there ""▼ might have\beeu about the burning being the n oik of an incendiary, must now be removed.
