Answers
The Doom of London.
The question, "What will be the
doom of London?" seems a not tiurea
ronnbtO OHO. What will be the end of
the great city? What will bring about
ihe ruin over which Mncntihiy'tt New
Kvrilander is to cast ids moralizing eye!
Several nuswor.-) may be given. The
destruction of London at the luiu/ls of
a victorious ItlVlldor Is possible, bill ex?
tremely improbable. Londop may be
besieged, even bombarded; she CUUUOI
in- destroyed.
Flood': This again may be dismissed
i. ; most Improbable, und one calamity
only remains to be considered, namely
-lire.
Now London has suffered more thdu
once terribly from this cause, und In
IIUHI tin- city was practically wiped
out. Every one knows this. Itut it b
