Workman, are in better spirits than we have known them to be in a long time, and much of it is due to the hi.e wheat pros- pect, which prevails on all sides- bun and rain tiave ministered most kindly to the growth of all vegetation for a week or more past. Fattening Hogs-Read it. In an experiment with corn a farmer put three bogs in separate pens. One ate J l-_ bushels of corn on the ear in nine days and gained 111 pounds. The seconc e in the same time 1 3-4 bushels of corn, cca v ground, and gained 1!) pounds. The thwu “’"'ted in the same time 1 bushel of boiled u,e. gained 22 pounds. Keep Your Orchard in Order. In a majority of cases the orchard is the last location to be given cultivation, while very of ten the supposition is that it should receive but little care. The best results are only ob tained from the orchard when it is kept in as good condition as possible, not only by being trimmed and the suckers removed, but a liberal application ol terlilizers made to the grouad. Troy Times. His “Specs” Came Back. A farmer in Greensborough, Md., thinking to change his grade of potatoes, barrelled all he had, shipped them to Baltimore, and order ed a few barrels of extra fine Northern pota toes fur seed.

The Little l!ock, Ark., Democrat very cor rectly takes in the true situation in the fol lowing paragraph—the workshops and the farms are what build up the country: It is the wealth-makers that build the city— the men whose brain and brawn are united in the manufacture of those articlts which are of use to the world. The men who go to work at 7 o’clock and carry their dinner pail—these, with the farmers are the city builders. With out them we should have neither trade nor business of any kind. We want more of them —more, producers of wealth. We want more men whose capital and energy shall provide workshops for these producers of wealth. Let us all stand bv these men and see that they are patronized. By so doin' we shall grow strong and powerful. Verdict of the Ashes. Two barns said to be filled with nnthrashed wheal were recently burned in Germany. They were insured, but it was impossible to collect, because the claim wai made that the contents of the barns were simply straw. When the affair got into the courts, chemical experts were called to analyze the ashes. Wheat con tains a large quantity of phosphoric acid, al most ten times as much as does straw. Nat urally, in the burning of these barns, wood ashes, cement and o her mineral substances were mixed with the ashes submitted to the chemists, but none of these admixtures con tain phosphoric acid. The experts found that of two samples placed in their hands one con tained 10.2 per cent, and the other 19 per cent, of the acid, thus proving conclusively that the farmers were in the right, ai d the insurance companies in tho wrong.—Fireman's Herald. The Value of a Rye Patch. Mr. J. E. Campbell informs us that in the fall he sowed a half-acre of rye. in drills, ma nured it, and plowed it once. For the last two and a half mouths he lias fed three cows, and saved at least lifteeu bushels of corn in feeding three horses, besides forage. lie has cut it three times—and says will now make a good crop of seed. Mr. Campbell says his stock are in better condition this spring thin he has had them for a number of years, and attributes it in a large measure to his rye. He thinks this half-acre has been worth at least fifty dol- ars to him. He has experimented considera bly for the last few years ill raising small grain, and says he never intends to sow any more broadcast. By planting in drills it is not so apt to be killed out by cold weather, and, be sides, he can manure it and work it, which he thinks will more than double the yield.—El'tcr- U>n Gazette. There is nothing to prevent the fanner from experimenting. In that way he will learn more about his own farm than can be taught him by others. Plenty of room, fresh air and a ciean house to roost in are necessary for fowls to thrive and keep free from disease.—Home and Farm. The lady and gentlemen members of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, with a view to cultivate a love for flowers among young people, have determined to offer prizes for window gardening. Cocoanut growers say that each tree in a grove produces one nut a day, or 365 in one year. Owing to the great height of the trees it is impossible to pick the nuts, and they are allowed to hang till they fall. The natives gather them up and carry them to the husking machines, where the nuts are stripped of the thick outside shells. A nut is most delicious just after it has dropped from the tree. Laying Ducks. The ducks should ba doing good service now, and if rightly fed they will lay as many eggs as the hens. In feeding ducks do not give them too much grain to the exclusion of other food. Cooked turnips, with a small quantity of ground meat added, and enough ground oats and cornmeal to make the mess palatable, will make a cheap meal and answer all purposes, but if they are laying well they should be fed three times a day, beginning early in the morning. They usually lay early iu the day instead of at night, and como out for feed long before tbe sun is up. They must have animal food in some form or they will not lay well — Exchange. How Rapidly Wheat Will Propagate. In Allen’s New American Farm Book, page 155, edition ol 1871, we find the following: “Propagation may be extended with incred ible rapidity by dividing the plant. The Eng lish l’hilos rphical Transactions give the result of a trial made by planting a single grain on the 2nd of June; on the 8th of August it was taken up and separated in eighteen parts and each planted by itself. These were subdivided and planted between the 15th of September and tile 15th of October, and agaiu the follow- ing Spring. From this careful attention in a fertile soil, five hundred plants were obtained, some containing one hundred stalks, bearing heads of a large size; and the total produce within the year was 589,810 grains from the single one planted. Money Crops for Daughters. M hat can a woman who likes gardening, and s some distance from town, cultivate, for ;• ’°h she can find ready sale at fair prices ? is the pointed question of a tanner’s daughter. She might make a specialty’ of some fruits, like strawberries, raspberries, ete., preservin'' them in the shape of jam, jelly or in their nat- urul state or drying them in an evaporator. Such home-made preserves could be turned off at a fair price, and once get a reputation estab lished for the goods and tho market will take ail you can furnish. You might make a spec ialty of some kinds of flower seeds, either to be sold by direct advertising in tho papers or to supply some large dealer. Anything that }ou can raise easily and that will not be bulky, and yet which will be easily preserved until a convenient time for selling it will pay.

TALMAGE’S SERMON. lrreacdod in the Brooklyn Taber nacle. €uriou0 Scales are now made so delicate that a sig nature on a piece of paper with a soft lead pen cil can be weighed. An American syndicate has obtained the exclusive privilege of using the telephone in China for thirty years. The first letter the new postmaster at Kemp- ton, III., had received for six years was the one containing his commission. A jury in New York city fined a house own er twenty-five cents for entering a tenant’s house with muddy boots to collect the rent.

Having expressed ourselves favorably in re gard to tbe cultivation of this fibrous plant, we take especial pleasure in ti&nsferring the fol lowing to our columns: A few days ago Mr. B. T. Page showed the Augnsta Evening News a fine specimen of jute raised by Mr. S. W. Howland, of Graniteville, S. C. It was exhib ited at the Beech Island Club House and Mr. Page brought it up and exhibited the jute with pride as the product of this section. He says that Mr. Howland reports its culture on the poorest kind of sandy soil and tells of s profit of $40 on a half acre planted in jute. The plant requires little or no culture, and sells for 5 cents a pound. This beats cotton, especially as the jute grows rank and high, and is more easily gathered, in addition to the little care demanded. It is simply cut down and thrown in water, and after the bark is softened, pulled through a machine which removes all debris, leaving the jute in long, strong and silken threads. Mr. Howland has only two or three acres planted this year, but is strongly impressed with the feasibility of its successful culture in large quantities and is assured that Irom 980 to 9100 can be made off an acre of poor lard. Successful jute culture will add another to the list of Southern staples, and this matter deserves attention. Jute is raised on thou sands of acres in the East, and its manufact ure into sacks, bagging and rope is a great in dustry. Its soft fibre even finds its way into the manufacture of silks, gives body to the ma terial, and its culture in the South should be encouraged. i m w to us, and which as a local expedient ap pears to possess considerable merit. It seems that there are what is called Corn Magazines organized in various districts, to which farmers may send a portion of their surplus produce, and whence also they may be supplied with loans of grain when required. The depositors receive at the rate of twelve ami a half per cent increase upon their deposit of grain for twelve months, and the borrowers replace the quantities advanced to them at the expiration of the same period, paying an interest of twenty -five per cent iu kind. The difference in the amount of interest on the grain received and that loaned pays the necessary expenses of storage and of sustaining the system. As the sole object is the mutual benefit of all con cerned, no profit above actual expenses is de manded or considered to be desirable. Tbe necessity for these magazines is owin'' to the precarious character of the crops—a’peculi arity of which is that there may bo an abun dance in one locality, and a partial or even total failure of the crop in another, though they may be separated by only a few miles from each other. These granaries are, fostered by the Government.—Ballou's Due North. Co-operation. [Dawson, Ga., News.l The fanners of Terrell have at last waked up to their interest and have a project on foot and with a fair prospect of success. They liavG under way and intend to organize, a stock company, to be composed entirely of farmers, for the purpose of erecting a cotton seed oil mill and guano factory. The mill will be for the purpose of converting their cotton seed into meal, and use their meal as a basis for their guano. They' intend to manufacture and thereby utilize their cotton seed themselves, instead of paying others to utilize their seed for them. Already 50 shares have been taken, at one hundred dollars per share, and we arc reliably informed that 150 more shares will be taken, which will raise the amount of 920,000, and which they are satisfied they can get. No per son will be allowed to take more than 9100 00 of stock, so as to get as many farmers inter ested in tlie project as possible. It is said by the majority of people, that you cannot organize the tanners of the country, and if you could, they are too poor to accom plish anything if united—and if you will talk to them on the subject, the most of them will admit tbe fact; but there is no good reason for it, and if they fail in any undertaking of this sort, it is their own fault. In the State of Texas they have recently or gauized a stock company for manufacturing purposes of 91,000,000, and already have un der way and nearly completed a cotton fac tory, cotton seed oil mill, etc. These Terrell farmers will have to commence on a small scale, but if they will only make a strong effort, they will astonish those who draw back from it and refuse to co-operate to gether. Joint Sly. In Silence. In the hush of tbe valley of alienee I dream all tbe songs that I alng; And the music floats down tbe dim valley. Till each flnds a word for a wing, That to hearts like the dove of the deluge, A message of peace they may brlrg. But far on tbe deep there are billows That never shall bleak on the beach: And I have beaad ton <a In the at encc That never shall fl wt into speech: And I have bad dreams Id the valley Too lofty for language to reach. And I have seen thoughts In the valley— Ah me I bow my spirit was stirred! And they wear holy veils on their faces— Their footsteps can hardly be beard; They pass through the valley like virgins, Too pore lor the touch of a word. Do too ask me the place of the valley? Ye hearts that are harrowed by care? It lleth afar between mountains, And God and His angels are there; One la the dark mountain of sorrow. And one the bright mountain of prayer. Father By an. A young woman of Beaver Falls, Fa., is so charged with electricity that a hairpin which she wore in nor head all day was magnetized enough to hold up sixty-nine needles by their pouts. When the young woman’s hair is stroked iu the dark it emits sparks, and to touch her is to receive a shock as from a mag netic battery. Charles Deubler, of Dawson, Ga., has shepherd dog that drives his chickens up at night. About sundown the dog begins his rounds over the premises, and never stops un til every fowl is driven up and is in the hen house. If a chicken shows a disposition not to retire to its roosting place, the dog drives it to the henhouse and stands guard at the door until the chicken takes a perch cn the roost. The streets of Canton are only three or four feet wide, paved with stone. The inhabitants throw their garbage into tbe street, the effect of which may be imagined. Above the streets are covered with matting or bamboo network, reaching from one side to the other. This ex cludes both light and air, and tends to make the street odor£ emphatically stronger. Looked at from an eminence the whole city seems to be roofed. l[)istoriral. An advertser, to reach customers in a partic ular State must use the local or country papers. Their circulation is all valuable to him. Excel lent combinations of this kind by States are controlled by Geo. P. Rowell & Co.’s News paper Advertising Bureau, 10 Spurce street, New York. Sawmills are said to have been in use at Augsherg in 1332. The spirit level was invented by Dr. Hooke, born 1G60, died 1702. The first kin^ speech from the throne is said to have been by Henry 1, 1107. Capstans to work ships’ anchors arc said to be the invention of Sir Samuel Morland, who died in 1005. Bricks were used in Babylon. Egypt, Greece and Home, an 1 were used in England by the Romans about 44. Locks were used by the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and the Chinese. Du Cange mentions locks and padlocks as early as 1381. May-day observance is very ancient. The Romans used to go in procession to the grotto of Egeria on the first day of this month. Jupiter is Raid to have been known to the Chaldeans, 3900 B. C. The discovery of this planet’s satellites was made by Galileo, Jan. 8, 1010. The Greeks ascribed the discovery of iron to themselves, and glass to the Plnenicians; but Moses relates (Gen. iv. 22) that iron was wrought by Tubal Cain. Anthracite coal was first used by two Con necticut blacksmiths named Gore, 1708 0. First used for domestic purposes by Judge Jesse Fell of Wilkesbarre, Pa., in 1808. Anthems were first composed by Hilary, Bishop of Poictiers, and St. Ambrose, about the middle of the fourth century. They were introduced into the church service iu 380. From Twelvo to Eight O’clock. Brooklyn, May 15.—At the tabernacle this morning, there were the same great throngs ol people as usual, overflowing the main audience room into the corridors, and from the corri dors into the street. This, the largest church in America, is more and more inadequate to hold the people, as the years go by. All parts of the earth are represented at every service. The pastor, the Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage, D. D., took for his text this morning: “Watch man, what of the night?” Isaiah xxi, it. He said: When night came down on Babylon, Nine veh, and Jerusalem, they needed careful watch ing, otherwise the incendiary’s torch might have been thrust into the very heart of the metropolitan splendor; or enemies, marching from the hills, might have forced tbe gates. All night long, on top of the wall and in front of the gates, might be heard the measured step of the watchman oh his solitary beat; silence hung in air, save as some passer-by raised the question: “Watchman, what of the night?” It is to me a deeply suggestive and solemn thing to see a mar, standing guard by night. It thrilled through me, as at the gate of an arse nal in Charleston, the question once smote me: “Who comes there’” followed by the sharp command: “Advance and give the counter sign.” Every moral teacher stands on picket, or patrols the wall as watchman, llis work is to sound the alarm; and whether it be in the first watch, in the second watch, in the third watch, or in the fourth watch, to be vigilant until the daybreak flings its morning glories of blooming cloud across the arching trellis of the sky. The ancients divided their night into four parts—the first watch, from six to nine; the second, from nine to twelve; the third, from twelve to three; and the fourth, from three to six. I speak now of the city in the third watch, or from twelve to three o’clock. I never weary of looking upon the life and brilliancy of the city in the first watch. That is the hour when the stores are closing. The laboring men have quitted the scaffolding and the shop, and are on their way home. It re joices me to give them my seat in the city car. They have stood and hammered away all day. Their feet are weary. They are exhausted with the tug of work. They are mostly cheer ful. With appeti es sharpened on the swift turner’s wheel and the carpenter’s whetstone, they seek the evening meal. Tho clerks, too, have broken away from the counter, and with brain wehry of the long lino of figures, and the whims of those who go a shopping seek the face of mother, or wife and child. The mer chants are unharnessing themselves from their anxieties, on their way up the streets.

The Indent with the rich apparel iither side of tho white, glis- ait the signal from the or- 'ights of the theater flash up; jl the curtain rises; and out , . , ’ scenery glide the actors, greeted wita tde tociferation of the expectant multitudes. Codeert halls are lifted into en chantment with file warble of one songstress, or swept out on a sea of tumultuous feeling by the blast of brazen instruments. Drawing rooms are filled with all gracefulness of appa rel, with all sweetness of sound, with all splen dor of manner; mirrors are catching up and multiplying the scene, until it seems as if in infinite corridors there were garlanded groups advancing and retreating. The outdoor air rings with laughter and with the moving to and iro of thousands on the great promenades. The dashing span adrip with the foam of the long country ride, rushes past as you halt at the curbstone. Mirth, revelry, beauty, fashion, magnificence mingle in the great metropolitan picture, until the thinking man goes home to think more seriously, and the praying man to pray more earnestly. A beautiful and overwhelming thing is the city in the first and second watches of the night. But the clock strikes twelve, and the third watch has begun. The thunder of the city has rolled out of the air. The slightest sounds cut the night with such distinctness as to attract your attention. The tinkling of the bell of tbe street car in the distance, and the baying of the dog. The stamp of a horse in the next street, the slam ming of a saloon door, the ^hiccough of the drunkard, the shrieks of the steam whistle five miles away. O, how suggestive, my friends, the third watch of the night! There are honest men passing up and down the street. Here is a city missionary who has been carrying a scuttle of coal to that poor family in that dark place. Here is an under taker going up the steps of a building from which there comes a bitter cry which indicates that the destroying angel has smitten the first born. Here is a minister of religion who has been giving tbe sacrament to a dying Christian. Here is a physician passing along in great haste, the messenger a few steps ahead hurry ing on to the household. Nearly all the lights have gone out in the dwellings, for it is the third watch of the night. That light in the window is the light of the watcher, for the medicines must be adminis tered, and the fever must be watched, and the restless, tossing off of the coverlid must be re sisted, and the ice must be kept an the hot temples, and the perpetual prayer must go up from hearts soon to be broken. O, the third watch of the night! What a stupendous thought—a whole city at rest! Weary arm preparing for to-morrow’s toil. Hot brain being cooled off. Rigid muscles re laxed. Excited nerves soothed. The white hair of the octogenarian in thin drifts across the pillow, fresh fall of flakes on snow already fallen. Childhood with its dimpled hands thrown out on the pillow and with every breath taking in a new store of fun and frolic. Third watch of tbe night! God’s slumberieas eye will look. Let one great wave of refresh ing slumber roll over the heart of the great town, submerging care, and anxiety, and wor- riment, and pain. Let the city sleep. But, my friends, be not deceived. There will be thousands to-night who will not sleep at all. Go up that dark alley, and be cautious where you tread, lest you fall over the proetrate form of a drunkard lying on his own doorstop. Look about you, lest you feel the garroter’s hug. Look through the broken window pane and see what you can see. You say: “Nothing.” Then listen. What is it? “God help u* ” No footlights, but tragedy ghastlier and mightier than Rutori or Edwin Booth ever enacted. No light, no fire, no bread, no hope. Shivering ««the cold, they have had no food for twenty-four hours. You ■ay: “Why don’t they beg?” They do, but they get nothing. You say: “Why don’t they deliver themselves over to the alms house?” Ah! you would not ask that it you ever heard the bitter cry of a man or a child when told he must go to the aims house. “Ol” you sav “they sre vicious poor, and, therefore, they do not deserve our sympathy.” a at ’ . 7 . mnrfl tiaaH t.h# broken window pane they see the crystals of heaven; but the vicious poor, they are more to be pitied. Their last light has gone out. You excuse yourself from helping them by saying they are so bad, they brought this trouble on themselves. I reply, where I give ten prayers for the innocent who are suffering I will give twenty prayers for the guilty who are suffer ing. The fisherman, when he sees a vessel dash ing into the breakers, comes out from his hut and wraps the warmest flannels around those who are most chilled and most bruised and most battered in the wreck; and I want you to know that these vicious poor have had two shipwrecks—shipwreck of the body, shipwreck of the soul—shipwreck for time, shipwreck for eternity. Pity, by all means, the innocent who are suffering, but pity more the guilty. Pass on through the alley. Open the door. “O,” you say, “it is locked." No, it is not locked. It has never been locked. No burglar would be tempted to go in there to steal any thing. The door is never locked. Only a bro ken chair stands against the door. Shove it back. Go in. Strike a match. Now, look. Beastliness and rags. See those glaring eye balls. Be careful now what you eay. Do not utter any insult, do not utter any suspicion, if you valui your life. What is that red mark on the wall? It is the mark of a murderer's hand. Look at those two eyes rising up out of the darkness and eat from the straw in the corner, coming toward you, and as they come near you, your light goes out. Strike another match. Ah! this is a babe: not like these beau tiful children presented in baptism. This little one never smiled; it never will smile. A flow er flung on an awfully barren beach. Oh! Heavenly Shepherd, fold that little one in Thy arms. Wrap around you your shawl or your coat tighter, for the cold winds sweeps through. Strike another match. Ah I is it possible that that young woman’s scarred and bruised face ever was looked into by maternal tender ness? litter no scorn. Utter no harsh word. No ray of hope has dawned on that brow for many a year. No ray of hope ever will dawn on that brow. But the light has gone out. Do not strike another light. It would be a mock ery to kindle another light in such a place as that. Pass out and pass down the street. Our cities of Brooklyn and New York and all our great cities are full of such homes, and the worst time the third watch of the night. Do you know it is the third watch of the night that criminals do their worst work? It is the criminal’s watch. At half past eight o’clock you will find them in the drinking-saloon, but towards twelve o’clock they go to their garrets, they get out their tools, then they start ou the street. Watching on either side for the police, they go to their work of darkness. This is a burglar, and the false key will soon touch the store lock. This is an incendiary, and before morn ing there will be a light on the sky, and a cry of “fire!” fire!” This is an assassin, and to morrow morning there will be a dead body in one of the vacant lots. During the daytime these villains in our cities lounge about, some asleep and some awake, but when the third watch of the night arrives, their eye keen, their brain cool, their arm strong, their foot fleet to fly or pursue, they are ready. Many of these poor creatures were brought up in that way. They were bom in a thieves’ garret. Their childish toy was a burglar’s dark lantern. The first thing they remember was their mother bandaging the brow of their father, 6truck by the police club. They began by robbing boys’ pockets, and now they have come to dig the underground passage to the cellar of the bank, and are preparing to blast tbe gold vault. Just so long as there are neglected children of the street, just so long we will have these desperadoes. Some one, wishing to make a good Christian point and to quote a passage of Scripture, expecting to get a Scriptural pas sage in answer, said to one of these poor lads, cast out and wretched; “When your father and your mother forsake you, who then will take you up?” And the boy said: “The per- lice, the perlieel” Iu the third watch of tho night gambling docs its worst work. What though the hours be slipping away, and though the wife be wait ing in the cheerless home? Stir up the tire. Bring on more drinks, l’ut up more stakes. That commercial house that only a little while ago put out sign of copartnership, will this winter be wrecked oua gambler’s table. There will be many a money till that will spring a leak. A member of Congress gambled with a member elect and won one hundred and wenty thousand dollars. Tho old way of get ting a living is so slow. The old way of get ling a fortune is so stupid. Come, let us toss .up and see who sh:/l have it. And so the r mfflionalre gambferfn the stoclTmarketT*^^ In the third watch of the night, pass down the streets of these cities, and you hear tbe click of the dice and the sharp, keen stroke of tho ball on the billiard table. At these places merchant princes dismount, and legislators tired of making laws, take a respite in break ing them. All classes of people are robbed by this crime—the importer of foreign silks and ttie dealer in Chatham street pocket handker chiefs. The clerks of the store take a hand after the shutters are put up, and the officers of the court while away their time while the jury is out Are they vicious? So much more need they your pity. The Christisn poor, God lelp them. Through their night there twinkles the round, merry star of tope, and through the In Baden-Baden, when that city was the greatest of all gambling places on earth, it was no unusual thing the next morning, in the woods around about the city, to find the sus pended bodies of suicides. Whatever be tlie splendor of surroundings, there is no excuse for this crime. The thunder of eternal destruc tion rolls in the deep rumbles of that gamblin'' ten-pin alley, and the men come out to join the long procession cf sin, all tho drums of death beat the dead march of a thousand soul". In one year, in the city of New York,'there were seven million dollars sacrificed at the gaming table. 1’erhaps some of your friends have been smitten of this sin. Perhaps some of you have been smitten by it. Perhaps there may be a stranger in the house this morniug come from some of the ho tels. Look out for those agents of iniquity who tarry around about the hotels, aud ask you: “Would you like to seo the cit\ ’” “Yes.” “Have you ever been to that splen did building up town!” “No.” Then the villain will undertake to show you what he calls the “lions” and the “elephants,” aud after a young man, through morbid curiosity or through baduess of soul, has seen the “lions” and the “elephants,” he will be on the enchanted ground. Look out for these men who move around the hotels with sleek hats— always sleek hats—and patronizing air, and unaccountable interest about your welfare and entertainment. You are a fool if you cannot see through it. They want your money. In Chestnut street, Philadelphia, while I was living in that city, an incident occurred which was familiar to us there. In Chestnut street a young man went into a gambling sa loon, lost all his property, and then blew his brains out, and before the blood was washed from the floor by the maid, the comrades were Bhufiiing the cards agaiu. You see there is more mercy in the highwayman for the belated traveler on whose body he heaps the stones, there is more mercy in the frost for the flower that it kills, there is more mercy in tbe hurri cane that shivers the steamer on the Long Island coast, than there is mercy in the heart of a gambler for his victim. In the third watch of the night, also drunk enness does its worst. The drinkiDg will be respectable at eight o’clock in the evening, a little flushed at nine, talkative and garrulous at ten, at eleven blasphemous, at twelve the hat falls off, at one the man falla to the floor asking for more drink. Strewn through the drinking saloon of the city, fathers, brothers, husbands, sons as good as you are by nature, perhaps better. In the high circles of society it is hushed up. A merchant prince, if he gets noisy and un controllable, is taken by his fellow-revellers, who try to get him to bed, or take him home, where l)ie falls flat in the entry. Do not wake np the children. They have had disgrace enough. Do not let them know it. Hush it up. But sometimes it cannot be hushed up, when tbe rum touches the brain and the man becomea thoroughly frenzied. Such an one came home having teen absent for some time, and during his absence his wife had died, and she lay in the next room prepared for the ob sequies, and he went in and dragged her by the locks, and shook her out of her shroud, and pitched her out of the window. Oh, when rum touches the brain, you cannot hush it up! My friends, you see all around about you the need that something radical be done. You do not see the worst. In the mid night meetings at London a great multitude have beer saved. We want a few hundred Christian men and woman to come down from the highest circles of society to toil amid these wuidering and destitute ones, and kindle up a hMvem thedarkaUer ’ eVe “ the S'sdness of common sense in what the poor woman said to the city missionary when he was telling her how she ought to love God and serve him. “Ohl” she said, “if you were as poor and cold as 1 am, and aa hungry you could think of nothing else,” A great deal of what is called Christian work goes for nothing, for the simple reason it is not practical, as after the battle of Antietam a man got out of the ambulance with a bag of tracts and went distributing the tracts, and George Stuart, one ef tbe best Christian men in this country, said to him: “What are you distrib uting tracts for now? There are three thou sand men bleeding to death. Bind np their wounds and then distribute tha tracts.” _ We want more common sense in Christian work—taking the bread of this life in one hand and the bread of the next life in the other hand. No such inapt work as that done by tbe Christian man, who, during the last war, went into a hospital with tracts, and, coming to the bed oi a man whose legs had been ampu tated, gave him a tract on the sin of dancing. I rejoice before God that never are sympa thetic words uttered, never a prayer offered, never a Christian almsgiving indulged but it is blessed. There is a place in Switzerland, I have been told, where the utterance of one word will bring back a score of echoes, and I have to tell you this morning that a sympathetic word, a kind word, a generous word, a helpful word uttered in the dark places of the town will bring back ten thousand echoes from all the thrones of heaven. Are there in this assemblage this morning those who know by experience the tragedies iu third watch of the night? 1 am not here to thrust you back with one hard word. Take the bandage from your bruised soul, and put on it tbe soothing salve of Cbrist’B gospel and of God’s compassion. Many have come. 1 see others coming to God this morning, tired of the sinful life. Cry up the news to heaven. Set all the bells ringing. Spread the banquet under the arches. Let the crowned heads come down and sit at at tbe jubilee. 1 tell you there is more delight in heaven over one man that g'ts reformed by tbe grace of God than over ninety aud nine that never got off the tiack. 1 could give you the history in a minute of one of the beat friends I ever had. Outside of my own family, I never had a better friend. He welcomed me to my home at the West. He was of splendid personal appearance, but he had an ardor of soul and a warmth of affection that made me love him like a brother. I saw men coming out of the saloons and gambling hells, and they surrounded my friend, and they took him at the weak point, his social nature, and I saw him going down, and 1 had a fair talk with him—for I never yet saw a man you could not talk with on the subject of his hab its, if you talked with him in the right way. I said to him: “Why don’t you give up your bad habits and become a Christian.” I re member now just how he looked, and leaning over his counter, as ho replied: “I wish I could. Oh, sir! I should like to be a Christian, but I have gone so far astray I can’t get back.” So the time went on. After a while the day of sickness came. I was summoned to his sick bed. I hastened. It took me but a very few minutes to get there. I was surprised as I went in. I saw him in his ordinary dress, fully dressed, lying on top of the bed. I gave him my hand, and he seized it convulsively and said: “Oh! how glad lam to see you ! Sit down there.” I sat down and he said: “Mr. Talmage, just where you sit now my mo ther sat last night. She has been dead twenty years. Now, I don’t want you to think I am out of my mind, or that I am superstitious; but, sir, she sat there last night just as certain ly as you sit there now—tho same cap and apron and spectacles. It was my old mother; she sat there.’’ Then he turned to hi3 wife and said: “I wish you would take these strings off the bed; somebody is wrapping strings around me all the time. I wish you would stop that annoyance ” Shesaid: “There is nothing here.” '1 lieu I saw it was delirium. He said: “Just where you sit now my mo ther sat, and she said: ‘Roswell, I wish you would do better—I wish you would do better.’ I said: ‘Mother, I wish I could do better; I try to do better, but I can’t. Mother, you used to help me; why can’t you help me now?’ And, -sir, I got out of bed, for it was a reality, aud I went to her and threw my arms around her reck, and I said : ‘.Mother, I will do bet ter, but you must help; I can’t do this alone.’ ” I knelt down and prayed. That night his soul went to the Lord that made it. Arrangements were made for the obsequies. The question was raised whether they should bring him to tlie church. Somebody said: “You cannot bring sueh a dissolute man as that into the church.” I .aid: “You will JHWfcWH,’ ifi’.'f'T’Wh’stoirt'ByJ?Si”Wnen‘tie '-R Ut-au. Bring him." An l stooa in the pulpit and saw them carrying the body up the aisle, I felt as if I could weep tears of blood. On one side the pulpit sat his little child of eight years—a sweet, beautiful little girl that I have seen him hug convulsively in his better moments. Ho put on her all jewels, all dia monds, and gave her all pictures and toys, and then lie would go away, as if hounded by- an evil spirit, to his cups and the house of shame a fool to the correction of the stocks. She looked up wonderingly. She knew not what it all meant. She was not old enough to un derstand the sorrow of an orphan child. On tho other side the pulpit sat the men who ha<l mined liiui. They were the men who had poured tlie wormwood into the orphan’s cup- they were the men who had bound him hand and foot. I knew them. How did they seem to feel? Did they weep? No. Did they say ” hat a pity that so generous a man should be destroyed?” No. Did they sigh repent- mgiy over what they had done? No; they sat there looking as vultures look at the carcass of a lamb whose heart they had ripped out. So they sat and looked at the coffin lid, and I told them the judgment of God upon those who had destroyed their fellows. Did they reform’ I was told they were in the places of iniquity that night after 1113’ friend was laid in Oak- wood cemetery, and they blasphem' d and they drank. Oh! how merciless men are, especially after they have destroyed you! Do not look to men for comfort or help. Look to God. But there is a man who will not reform He says: “I won’t reform." Well, then, how many acts are there in a tragedy? 1 believe five. Act the first of the tragedy: A young man starting off from home; parents and sisters weeping to have him go; wagon rising over the hill. Farewell kiss thing back. Ring the bell and let the curtain fall. Act the second : The marriage altar. Full organ. Bright lights. Long white veil trail ing through the aisle, l’rayer and congratula tion, and exclamations of “How well she looks I” Act the third: A woman waiting for sta"- geriug steps. Old garments stuck into the broken window pane. Marks of hardship on the face. The biting of the nails of bloodless fingers. Neglect and cruelty and despair. Ring the bell and let the curtaih drop. Act the fourth: Three graves in a dark placd*-grave of the child that died for lack of medicine; grave of the wife that died of a bro ken heart; grave of the man that died of dissi pation. Oh! what a blasted health with three graves! Plenty of weeds, but no flowers. Ring the bell and let the curtain drop. Act the fifth: A destroyed soul's eternity. No light. No music. No hope. Anguish coil ing its serpents around the heart. Blackness of darkness forever. But I cannot look any longer. Woe! woe! I close my eyes to this last act of the tragedy. Quick! Quick! Ring the bell and let the curtain drop. “Rejoice” O, young man, in thy youth, and let thy heart rejoice in the days of thy youth; but know thou that for all these things God will brin" von into inrlimiAnt ’* "Thorn ; a « ffailroafi*.
