REMARKABLE
PROPHECY.
The War of 1914 Predicted. In 1854.
There is in Germany a famous
prophecy. It is called "The Prophecy of Mayence," and dates from 1854. It comprises eighteen varees of prediction, of which the first nine have been fulfilled in
the most remarkable manner. Here are the veracy:
1. When the little people of the Oder shall feel themelven strong enough to abake of the yoke of their protector and when the the barley is sprouting from ears their King William shall march against Austria.
2. They will have victory upon victory up to the gates of Vienna, but a word from the great Em. peror of the West shall make the beroos tremble on the field of victory and the barley shall not be gathered in until he has signed the peace, shaken off the yoke, and returned triumphantly to bis country.
3. Bat at the the fourth barle oate, 'n dread' shall call th

18. William, the second of the pime, shall be the last King of Prussia. He shall have no other successors save a King of Poland, a King of Hanover, and a King of Saxony.
All the first part of this pro- phecy up to the ninth vereo inclusive is verified by the war of 1860, then by that of 1870, and then by the Commune of 1871. Here are the lest nine verees

11. The time of retaliation aball approaches. The Czar come in the midst of you to seal the alliance.
12. That is the man of salvation. 13. Ho shall chase the enemy of Franco, he shall conquer Germany until it is completely destroyed:
