England’s Gloomy Outlook

SAYS the New York Sun: 'Not since the year of the Indian mutiny have any twelve months opened for Great Britain under such gloomy conditions as those which encompass her to-day. Her claim to rank as a great power is at stake, the rejection of which would probably involve the quick disintegration of her world-wide dominion.' England recognizes this, and she is stirring herself to see to it that such a calamity does not come upon her. And the spirit with which she is met by the continental powers shows the temper of this age. It is that of bitter war, and not of peace. God says of these times, 'And the nations were angry.' Who is telling the truth? Plainly it is God, and not those who are saying peace, when there is no peace.
