It is now that the victim says iu his heart._.“ Ud hath forgotten: He hideth His face : He will never see it.” Job observed the relation between night,roving and sin: “ The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, no eye shall see mjs; and d'sguiseth his face.” “In the dark they dig through houses which they had marked for themselves in thu day-time: thqy know not the light.” “For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death : if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.” At such a time, the wise Solomon, “Dis¬ cerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding. “ Passing through the street near her corner ; and he went the way to her house In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night “ And behold there met him a woman 4 with the attire of an harlot, and subtile of heart.” “ With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with * the flattering of her lips she forced him.” “ lie goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks “ Till a dark strike through his liver ; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for bis life.” Does not St. Paul tell us that “ they that be drunken, are drunken in the night?” And does not the Great Teacher explain it mil ?—“ Every onc that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometli to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.” . Said a man to me, not long since, 4 bhose «rl, youth «» innocent nud noble. bn who became, ten years ago the prmed of fast men and “-black-legs” in Atlanta; who, in a delirium of drunkenness killed iend and made himself an outcast reprobate: “ 1 was a good boy and loved h^if e and mother. Mother hired a boy a 1 night walker, and first persuaded me to go down town of nights After a while he got me to the bar-room. Then 1 drank with him. Cards came next. Dad wo men and drunkeness followed and you know the rest ” * It was very mournful to look upon this own, and hear him talk about his mother and pure childhood—now gone forever— and he a man of genius and sensibility, in the very prime of what might have bcen a glorious life, a blighted thing—the fierce and pitiless simoon, in unintermitteutfury, licki^ up with a. ho. breath thu Ter, itfe of hie eoul.
