Miilnlght Charities of London In Com-
pany With the Karl or Kintore—
lticbard Weaver, the English
Kvangelist.
We publish instead of a weekly talk a
letter from the Kev. T. De Witt Talmage,
p D., of Brooklyn, who is now absent
from his church. Its subject is “Two or
three memories of England,” and its date
August 10th.
In 1870 I saw much of Great Britain
sod Ireland, as you may imagine when I
tell vou that I preached and lectured nine-
tr-six times in ninety-four days.
1 (shall not soon forget a week night at
the door of a church in London. I was
not to preach, but to lecture. After a long
ride through regions strange to me, the
carriage stopped at the door of the
church. On my stepuing out there
pressed through the crowd a terrible
looking man—whether a madman or one
infuriated with sttong drink, I cannot say
—and erving out: “He that believeth
sad is ba’pt’zed shall be saved, and lie that
believeth not shall be damned,” he struck
st my head with full force of fist. An
aged gentleman, who, as I saw him after
ward, seemed all too weak for such an un
dertaking, caught the uplifted fist and
diverted the blow. The crowd then came
in between me and the fury, and I passed
into the church without further disturb
ance; but you may imagine I arrived in
the ante room in anything but a comfort
able frame of mind.
Under these circumstances I was intro
duced to the Karl of Kintore, the celebrat
ed Scotch philanthropist There was so
much pacification in his demeanor that I
toon recovered from the perturbation of
the scene througli which 1 had just passed.
Then and there an afiectionate acquaint'
ancewas formed, which, though brief, will
be something to rejoice over while I live.
If 1 were asked who was the best man I
met that summer abroad, I would say with
out hesitation, “the Karl of Kintore.” He
was just as much at home on the platform
and in the pulpit as in the House of Lords
or as in his own castle. I said to my wife,
over and over again, “That man is too ripe
in goodness and geniality to live long in
this world 1” Alas, my prophecy proved
too true.
Mealed at his table with all the members
i uh family, and mime of his illustrious
friends whom he had invited to dine, he
said to me, “Do not forget your journey
next Sabbath night.” It was useless to
tell me not to forget that which I had
ardently anticipated. At 6 o’clock his
lordship called at the Westminster hotel,
not with a carriage, for we were going
where it was best for us to go afoot. With
his servant to carry his coat and Bible and
psalm book, «e sauntered forth. We were
out to see some of the evening and mid
night charities of London. First of all
we went into the charity lodging houses of
London—the places where outcast men
who would otherwise have to lodge on the
bants of the Thames, or under the arch
bridges, may come in and find gratuitous
shelter. These men, as we went in, sat
around in all atages of poverty and wretch
edness.
As soon as the earl entered they nil
knew him. With some he shook hands,
which, in Borne cases, was a big undertak
ing.. It is pleasaut to shake hands with
the cleanly, but a trial to shake hands
with the untidy. Earl Kintore did not
slop to see whether these d en had attend
ed to proper ablution. They were in sin
md trouble, and needed help, and that
was enough to evoke all his sympathies,
lie addressed them as “gentlemen” in a
short religious address, and promised
•them “a treat at Christmas.” He skid:
“Gentlemen, I am going, immediately at
the adjournment of parliament, to Scot-
hod, and shall not see you again till next
year, but I have left money with my rep
resentative, who will see to it that you
have holiday festivity.” He told me that
he had no faith in trying to do their souls
good unless he sympathized practically
*ith their physical necessity. His ad
dresses were earnest, helpful, and looked
toward two worlds—this and the next. In
midsummer a laige fire was burning in
the grate, for I supposed the poor crea
tures were very thin blooded. Turning
to those forlorn wretches, Lord Kintore
wtd, “That is a splendid fire. I do not
•relieve they have a better fire than that
■n Buckingham palace.”
rrom this charity lodging house, which
•he inmates call the “House of Lords,” wo
*ent to one of inferior qua ity, which the
“miates call the “House of Commonsi”
.‘here were different grades of squalor, dit-
rerent degrees of rags, different styles of
Balodor. From there we went to missions
»nd outdoor meetings and benevolent
tootns. where coffee and chocolate are
crowding out intoxicants. Ready with
P/?Jcr and exhortation himself, his lord-
•htp expected everybody with him to be
Jjcsdy, and although he had promised to

addresses, so that at the close of this Sun-
Jay, which I had set apart for entire quiet,
1 tuund l had made five addresses, ltut it
***one of the most refreshing and instruc-
•tce days of my life.
I saw him again under very different
circumstances. It was on August 12, Sat
urday afternoon, 2 o’clock. Saturday af
ternoon is always a holiday in London,
ad it is a good time for meetings and en-
rertainments. I was to speak in Exeter
* , ° n “Bright and Happy Homes.” The
**rl was in the chair. The families of.
of she English aristoeracy were on]
platform. The I’rince Imperial ofl
ranee was that afternoon being carried to
AWlhont. As the great Exeter Hall
g»n ceased'to roll,Earl Kintore arose,and
“* confronted the audience the minute

hazel, and, I think, cut from the grounds
around his cas le in Scotland, the wood
beautifully polished and appropriately in
scribed. I sought from place to place to
find a cane worthy of my Scottish friend.
After considerable delay I found what I
wanted, and sent it by express to Inverarv,
Aberdeenshire, Scotland, hut before it ar
rived at its ptuceof destination the Earl of
Kintore had finished his earthly journey,
and had no more need of rod or staff to
comfort him. A sharp pang strikes thr, ugh
me, only solaced by the thought that in
the Christian partings of earth there must
be a heavenly reunion.
Besides this reminiscence, I present one
of goodness aud usefulness in a different
sphere. The contrast is vivid. I had
great desire to see the much-talked about,
often condemned, hut divinely honored
Richard Weaver, the English revivalist.
He has for many years been stirriug the
hearts of vast multitudes. It has been no
unusual thing for him to address 10,000
people in the open air, and to have hun
dreds under one sermon converted. “Is it
not strange," I often said, “that I see noth
ing of Richard Weaver?” He had for
years paused in his itinerant work,
and been preaching in a chapel to
the poor of Oldham, near Manchester.
At last I found him coming out of the
barn of my host, where he had been look
ing at the horses. 1 heard him singing
before I saw him. Wo greeted each other
like old friends. “You must go to Old
ham,” he said. “I cannot go,” was ihe re
ply, “I have but one day, and that next
Saturday, to rest in before I leave Eng
land, and I must rest or die.”
By this time we had reached the house.
He got down on his knees and said: “O
Lord, show this man his duty to go Old
ham I” Rising, he said, “This is my ex
cuse for demanding you to go. It will be
the neediest audience you have seen in
Eogland. All poor, and the Lord’s poor,
aud you have not seen England till you
have seen my humble chapel.” After
further consideration I accepted the invi
tation.
Arrived at Oldham we liad a delightful
time. Richard Weaver is one of the most
magnetic men I ever met. He recited re
miniscences, and sang for me, and did
everything except tell the story of the lost
sheep. I said to him: “I have heard and
read much about the way you tell that
story;” but he declined saying that he
needed the inspiration of a large audience
before him to do it well. True to his
statement, the people in his chapel are the
Lord’s poor. 1 never enjoyed preaching
more than tiiat afternoon to that unpre
tending audience. A gentleman played
the melodeon in the chapel. As I was
leaving for the train, he handed me an
envelope. I said: “Excuse me, I cannot
take that. I suppose it is to meet my ex'
penscs. I came down here to serve
Richard Weaver, and I will pay my own
expenses.” He replied, “You do not
know what the letter contains. I’ut it in
your pocket.” Arriving at the vail train
I opened the letter, and wassurprised more
than I can tell, for it contained $500.
“ Whai did you do with that?” Spent it.
Travel with your family in Englaud, and
have two secretaries and their families,
and look at pictures and curiosities and
books, which are too much for your resist,
ance, and cross both ways in a’ Cunarder,
and have but little faculty for severe econ
omy yourself, aud it will be no mystery
where the money went.
And so we place side by side the two
men. The one descendant for six genera
tions from the greatest height of social and
political position. The other comes np
horn a colliery. The one reared in all the
advantages ot the university, and the other
not able to read until late in life. But
both God’s noblemen, both the champions
of religion, both eminent for humanity, for
devotion. Both turned many to righteous
ness. “And they shall shine as the stars
forever and ever."

A WORD IN SEASON.
Everybody wants to claim something extraordinary for whatever they have as a cura«
tive agent. The value of B. B. B, is too well-known for “claim-making ” It stands alone
unpara leled as a Blood Remedy, and nobody can produce its superior. We don’t fight
olher remedies, because B. B. B. takes care of itself. If you have anything the matter with
your blood, try it—a single bottle will open your eyes. It is nonsense to try and argue with
the public, and we don’t do it. One bottle will do you good, no matter how you suffer.

10 YEARS WITH RHEUMATISM.
Newton, 8. C., Juno 25,1887.
Gentlemen: I am pleasured in saying
I have been a great sufferer of rheumatism
for 10 years, aud I have exhausted almost
every known remedy without relief. I
was told to try B. B. B. which I did after
long procrastination, and with the experi
ence of three bottles, I am almost a healthy
man. I take it as a part of my duty to
make known your wonderful Blood Puri
fier to suffering humanity, and respectfully
ask you to mail me one of your books of
wonders. Respectfully,
W. I. Morehead.
ITS USE FOR KIDNEYS.
JesuPj Ga., May 26,1887.
I have been suffering from kidney dis
ease for a month past, and the pain in my
back was v-ry severe. Mv occupation re
quires a good deal of writing at night and
I suffered all the time. I saw one man
who said he was cured by using Botanic
Blood Balm, (B. 11. B.) and I commenced
using it, and the pain is a great deal less.
I have only used two bottles and believe it
will effect a cure by the use of a few more
bottles. Yours respectfully,

B. AGAINST OTHER REMEDIES.
Putnam Co., April 29,1887.
I have been sutlering for most thirty
years with au itching and burning all over
my face and body. I took eighteen bottles
of one blood medicine and it did me no
good. I commenced last January to
use B. B. B., and after using five bottles I
felt better and stouter than I have in thirty
years, my health is better and I weigh
more than I ever did. The itching has
nearly ceased, #nd I am confident that a
few. more bottles of B. B. B. will cure me
entirely. I am sixty-two years old and
can do a good day’s,work in my field. I
consider it the best medicine I have ever
seen, for it certainly did me more good
than all the medicine I have ever taken.
I had, in all, nearly a hundred risings on
my face, neck and body.

I cheerfully state the following facts in 1 ani wmter *• a tome and blood purifier,
regard to the use of your medicine in my |
family. My little son, 14 years of age, sut-I
fered from an acute attack of rheumatism, ’
caused by undue exposure and chilling of

rcommended, and purchased one bottle of
Moncrief & Bra., Frescatt, Ark. In about
one month after using this battle, he be

bottle which is now being used, and my
son is.nearly well, and I think by remov

I will do) and continuing its use, a perfect
cure will he effected. I consider B. B. B
a most excellent blood purifier.
