The Sabbath and the Crystal Palace, by Anonymous 53934 [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/5/3/9/3/53934 ] [Files: 53934-0.txt; 53934-h.htm] For those wishing to know: After the world-famous 1851 Great Exhibition the "Crystal Palace" was relocated to near Sydenham in south London, and whilst it was being rebuilt the religious groups praised the interlectual stimulus it would give to the working classes. Their praise turned to horror when they realized that it would be open on Sunday afternoons, giving the multitudes who didn't go to church something to do - in particular it would provide amusement for the youth who were already trying to escape the Victorian Sabbath. This religious pamphlet (part of a long series) condemns the whole enterprise. All the best, David, England where it's getting cold with snow on the way

The Gathering of the Nations, by Anonymous 53931 [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/5/3/9/3/53931 ] [Files: 53931-0.txt; 53931-h.htm] For those wishing to know: this is one of a large series of evengelical tracts, mostly 8 pages each, published in the 1850/60s. This is a typical formula: it describes the International Exhibition of 1862 as a Gathering of the Nations, then quickly starts talking about after the end of the world when all nations would gather before God, and those who weren't religious would be in trouble. A local clergyman, John Stoughton, preached a series of sermons on the topic and published a book (in Gutenberg) which I think was probably a lot more successful. All the best, David, England with the cold on the way
