1 (We are not responsible for opinions expressed by correspondents.) ' THE SCIENCE OF ASTROLOGY. (To the Editor.) Sir.—Tbje persual of Ziakieles Almanack ought to set people a-t-hiiik- ' ing< It is certainly strange how the [ planetary system altects our lives and circumstances. The government ' of the universe is a mysterious pro--1 blem to the great majority of mankind. but I, as an individual! am ' satisfied that the ruling is not a ; mere chance game. We may rest as- ! aured that there is a. moral Govern- ' or at the helm of affairs, directing | the destinies of the nations of the earth, and that tte stars are subservleat to bis purposes. Is astrolo- , gy a new science ; the reading of the above named almanack made me think of a passage in Old Testament history. Judges v., 20, "They fought from heaven ; The stars in their courses fought against Sisera." [ This was a prophetical declaration ' of * valiant .woman. Might it not be said with equal force in the im- ' mediate future ''The stars in their courses fought against Russia ?- • "There is g. providence shapes our i" ends rough tew; them how we will." 1 —Yours, etc., AN OBSERVER.
