"All Is Confusion."

WHEN speaking of the present aspect of the nation, the New York Herald of June 6, says: "All is confusion, because the popular sentiment is in a transition state." True, the tide of "perplexity" still rolls on, and all things seem to be breaking up into chaos. The people are disheartened at the state of things. All their remedies for establishing order seem only to increase the "confusion." Every effort to calm the storm only adds to its terrible fury. The powers of darkness are let loose, and the hurricane of events appears ready to burst upon a wicked world and an apostate Christendom. The hour of repentance seems to be past, as in the days of Noah and Lot. Now their hypocritical fasts and prayers are of no avail. The cup of iniquity runs over, and the masses are steeping in its filthy pollution. We see no ground to hope for a better state of things till Jesus comes. Let the glad hour arrive speedily.—World's Crisis.
