Brooklyn, December 12—[Special.]—The
. JRev. T. DeWitt Talmngc, P. D., preached this
morning from the text, II. Kings, v., 1:
•Was a leper.” He said:
Here we have a warrior, sick, not with plea-
-titles, or rheumatism, or consumption; but
- a disease worse than all these combined. A red
mark ha* como out on tho forehead, precursor
' of complete disfigurement and dissolution. I
Slave something awful to tell you. General
• Raaman, tho commander-in-chief of all "tho
Syrian forces, has the leprosy! It* is on his
■ hands, on his face, ou his feet, on his entire
person! The leprosy! Get out of the way
of the pestilence! If his breath strikes
you, you are a dead man. The commander-in-
chief of all the forces of Syria! And yet ho
would lie glad to excliango condition*
* with tho boy at his stirrup,
or the hostler that blankets
ebarger. Tho news goes liko wild lire n 1
•through tho realm, and tho people are sympa
thetic and tney cry out: “Is it possible that oui
. great hero who shot Ahah, and around whom
We came with such vociferation when ho ro
om victorious 1
glorious Naaman ha*
t o leprosy?*’ \
’Yes. Kverjrbodv has something ho wishes
lie lead not—David, an Absalom to disgrace
.him; lY.ul, a thorn to sting him; Job, carbun
cles to plaguo him; Samson, a Delilah to shear
him; A Imb, n Naboth to deny him; ILituiiti, a
Alorderai to irrituto him; George Washington,
childishness to afilict him; John Wesley, a ter-
■ Jnngjmt wife to pester him; Leah, weak eyes;
Hope, a crooked back; Byron, a club foot; John
Aliiton, blind eyes; Chas. Lamb, an iasano sister
• -find yon, and you, undyou:and you, something
Which you never bargained for, and would like
to get rid of. Tho reason of this is, that Clod
-docs not wnnt this world to bo too bright;
•otherwise, we would always want to stay, and
cat these fruits, nnd Uo on these lounge.*, anil
fihake bands iu this pleasant society. Wo are
only in the vestibule of a grand temple. God
doc* not want us to stay on the doorstep, and
therefore lie sends aclie«. and annoyances, and
sorrows, and licreavements of nil sorts to pash
! ns on, and push us up toward rii*cr fruit*, and
■ brighter society, and more radiant prosperities.
God is only whipping us ahead. Tho reason
that Kdward I’ayson and Robert Hall hud more
rapturous views of bcaven than other peopto
hud was because, through their aches and paius.
God pushed them nearer up to it. lr God
dashes out ono of your pictures, it
is only to show 3*011 a brighter ono.
If Ho sting your foot with gout,
jour brain with neuralgia, your tongue with
, an inextinguishable thirst-, it is only becttiso
. Ho is preparing to substitute a better body
than yon ever dreamed of, when the mortal
•hall put on immortality. It is to pu*h you
.. on, and push you up toward somethiug grander
. and better, that God sends upon you, a* Uo
did upon General Niuiman, something you do
Dot wnnt. Seated in his Syrian mansion—all
tbo walls glittering with the shield* which I10
had captured iu battle; tho corridors crowded
With admiring visitors who just wanted to sco
him once; music and mirth ami banqueting
filling all tiio mansion, from tc«*olatcd floor to
{detail d ceiling—NHainan would have forgotten
•that thcro was nnything better, ami would
have been glad to stay thero ten thousand
^retrs. But, oh, how tho shields dim, aud
how tlio visitors tly from tho hall, and
how tho nrnslo drops dead from the string,
and how tho gates of tho nunslon slam
•hut with sepulchral bang, as you road tho
dc6lng words of tho culogium: “Ho was a
leper! He was a leper!”
There was ono person more sympathetic with
Geficra) Nnaiaan than any other person. Nam*
man’s wife walks tbo door, wringing her hands
and trying to think what tho can do to nllovl-
. ate her husband’s suffering. All remedies havo
Ailed. Tho snrgeon-genoral and tho doctors of
the royal staff have met, and they have shaken
their heads as much as to say: “No care: no
care.” I think that tho olllco-aookera had all
Aided up their recommendations and gone
homo. Probably most of tho employes of tho
establishment had dropped their work and
were thinking of looking for some other situa
tion. What shall now beromo of poor Naa*
man’s wife? She must have sympathy some
where. In her despair she goes to a Uttle Ho-
hrew captive, a servant girl in her house, to
whom sho tells tbo whole story; as
sometimes, when ovetborno with tho sor
rows of the world, and finding no sympathy
anywhere else, yon have gone ont and found
In. the sympathy of some domestic—Row, or
Dinah, or Bridget—a help which tho world
could not givo you.
What a sccno It was! One of the grandest
women in all Syria in cabinet council with a
waiting maid over tin* declining health of tho
mighty general! “I kuow something,” rays
the little esptivo maid. “I know somethiug,”
ns she bounds to her hire Act. “J*i the laud from
which 1 was stolen there is a certain prophet
known by the natuo of Elisha, who can euro
almost everything, and I shouldn’t womlor if
he could cure my master. Bead for him right
away.” “Oh, hush!” you say. “If the high
est medical tulcut Id all the land cannot euro
that leper, thero to no need of your listening
to any talk of n servant girl.” But
do not scoff; do not sneer. Tbo
finger of that ' little captive
maid to pointing iu tho right direction. Sho
might have said, “this to a judgment on yon
for stealing mo from my ustivo land. Didn’t
they snatch me olf iu the night, breaking my
Athcr’s and mother’s beatl? And many a
time 1 have laid and cried nil nigh: because I
was so homesick. ”Thcn lln*biiig up Into child
ish indiguution, sho might havo said, “good for
them; I'm gkul Naniuait’s got tho leprosy; I
wish all tho Syrians hud tho leprosy.” No.
Forgetting her own iwraoual sorrows, sho sym-
path toes with the suffering of her master, and
recommends him to tho famous Hebrew proph
et.
And how often it to that the finger of child
hood has pointed grown persons in the right
direction. O, Christian soul, how loaf i* it
since that you got rid of the leprosy of sin?
You say, “let mo see. It must be five year*
now.” “Five years. Who was it that pointed
you to tho Divine Physician?” “On,” you
eay, “it was my little Annie, or Fred, or
Charley, that clambered up ou my knees and
looked in my fare, and a*ku 1 me why I didn’t
become a Christian, nnd ull tho timo stroking
my cheek to I couldn’t get nugry, insisted up
on knowing why I didn’t have family prayers.”
There are grandparent* hero who havo boon
brought to Christ by thero little grandchild
ren. There are many Christian mothers here
* ■ who had their attention first called to Je*a« by
t their little children. How did you get rid of
the leprosy of sin? How did you fiud your
way I© tho Divine Physician? “Oh,” you say,
‘in3* child, my dying child, with won and
1 wasted finger point*d that way! OU, I shill
never forget,” you say, “that sc« no at the cra
dle and the crib that awful night! It wa*
Laid. hard, very hard; but if that little one on
Its dying bed had not Pointed mo to Christ, I
• don’t think 1 ever would have got rid of my
leprery.* Go into the Sabbath school this af
ternoon and you will find huudred* of little
• fingers pointng in the mm? direction, toward
Jesus d brtot uud toward heaven.
Years ago the astronomer* calculated thftt
there must he a world lunging at a certain
point in the heavens, and a Itrgn prise was
ofirrrd for Mine one who could discover that
world. The tclesropcs from the great observa
tories were pointed in vain, but a girl at Nan
tucket. Mass., fashioned a telereopa and look
ing thrcngfi it, divoved that Mar and won the
prize pud the admiration of all the astronom
ical world, that stood ani-uo-d at her gcain*.
Acd solt toofttn the rise that grown people
cannot see the light, while some little child be
holds the star of pardon, tho star of hope, the
star of consolation, the star of Bethlehem, the
morning star of Jeans. “Not many raightv
men, not many wise men are called; but G »t
hath chosen the weak thing of the world to
confound the mighty sod bore things so I
that are not, to bring to
usuglit things that arc.” Oil,
do not despiso the prattio
of little children w bi n they are speaking ubiut
God, and Christ, Mini heaven! You sco tiie way
your child is pointing; will* you take that
IMjinting cr wait until Iu the wrench of some
awiul bereavement God shall life that child to
miotlfcr world, ami then it will beckon you up
ward? Will you take tho pointing or will you
wait for tho tockoniug? Blessed bo God tint
thojittlc Hebrew captive pointed iu the right
uiicction! Blessed be Gotl for tho saving min
istry of Christian ehiidrcu!
No woudt r the advice of this little Hebrew
captive throw all Nauruan's mansion and Bon-
hiuind's julaco into excitement. Guod-byo,
Nmtninu! With fiice scarified uud ridged, ami
inflamed by tlio pestilence, and aided by those
who support! d him on either side, ho staggers
out to the chariot. Hold fust the fiery courser*
of tho royal stable whilo tho poor sick
man lifts his swollen feet and
l<ain-Mnu-k limits into the vehicle. Bolstfrlihu
up with the pillows, and let him tiko a linger
ing look at his bright apart merit, for parlnp*
the ILbrcw captive maybe mistaken, and the
next time Naamnn comes to that placo he mty
lie a dead weight on tho shoulders of tho*o
who carry him—an expired chieftain socking
trfpulluic aiuid the lamentation* of au admir
ing nation. Goodbye. Nauumn!
Let tho charioteer drive gently over tho hills
of Hcrnron lest he jolt the invalid. Hero goes
the bravest tmin of all liis day, a captive of a
horrible disease. As tbo nmlmluuco winds
through tho streets of Damascus tho tears and
prayers of all the people go after tho world*
renowned invalid. Perhaps you havo hud nti
invulid go out from your house ou a health
exclusion. You know how tho neighbors stood
around aud said: “All, ho will never como
back again alive!” Oh, it wa* a
Milcnm moment, I tell you, when
tho invalid had departed, aud >*ou
went into the room to make tho bed, and to
remove tho medicine phials from tho shelf,
and to throw open tho shutters so that tho
fresh air might rush into tbo long-closed room!
Good-bye, Nnuinan! There is only ono cheer
ful face looking ut him, aud that is tho face of
tbo little Hebrew captive, who is sure ho will
get cured and who is eo glad sho helped him.
As tho chariot winds out aud tho escort of
mounted courtiers, uud the mules, ludcu with
Mickso! gold and silver nnd embroidered suit*
of apparel, went through the gates of Damas
cus and out on the long way, tho hills of
Naphtali and Ephraim look down on tho pro
cession, nnd the retiuuo goes right past tho
battle fields were Niuiman, in the days of his
health, ured to rally his troops for fearful on
set; and then tho procession stops and roclinos
» while In tho groves of olives and oloandcr,
and General Nunman so sick—and so vory,
cry sick!
How tho countrymen gaped as tbo procession
l«sscd! They had seen Naamau go past liko a
whirlwind iu days gone by, and luul stood
aghfist at tlio clank of his war equipments; but
now they commiserate him. They any: “Poor
u nn, bo wilt never get home alive! Poor
man!” General Knaman wakes up from a
rentiers sleep iu the chariot, and ho says to tho
charioteer: “How long before iro shall reach
this prophet Elisha’s?” Tho charioteer siy$ to
n wnysidin “How fur to it to Elisha's homo?”
He rays: “Two miles.” “Two mile*.” Thou
they whip up tho lathered nml faggod-out
horses. The whole procession brightens up at
prospect of speedy arrival. They drive up to
the door of tho prophet. The charioteers shout
“whoa” to the horses, and tho trampiug hoofs
aud grinding wheels cease shaking the earth.
Come out, Eli-ha, como out, you havo com
pany; the grandest company that ever carno to
your house lias como to it now. No stir insido
Elisha's house. The fact was, tho Lord
had informed Elisha that tho sick captain
was coming, and just how to trout
him. Indeed when vou urn sick and tho Lord
wants you to get well, Ho always tells tho
doctor how to treat you; and tho reason wo
havo so many bungling doctors is because they
depend upon their own strength and instruo*
tions and not on the Lord God, and th it al
ways makes malpractice. Como out, Elisha,
anu attend to your business. General Naara in
and his retinue waited, and waited, and wait
ed. Tho fact was Niuiman had two disoasos—
prido and leprosy; and ono was as hard to get
rid of as tho other. Elisha aits quietly In his
house and does not go out. After a whilo,
when he humbles this proud man, ho my* to a
servant: “Go out and tell General Naaman to
bathe seven times in the River Jordan, out
yonder five miles, and he will gut entirely
well.”
The message comes out “What!” says tho
commander in-chief of the Syrian forcot,
his eyo kindling with au anlmi-
tion which it had not shown
for weeks,, and his swollen foot stampiug on
tho bottom of the chariot regardless of ptin:
“What, isn’t ho coming out to aeo me? Why, I
thought certainly ho would come aud utter
seme cabalistic words over mo or make some
enigmatical passes over my wouuds. Wny, I
don t tliink| ho knows who I am. Isn’t ho
toniing out? Why, when tho Hhunamlto
woman tamo to Hltu, be rushed out and cried:
'Is it well with thee? Is it well with thy
husband? Is it well with thy child?’ And
will ho treat a poor unknown woman liko
that, and let mu. a titled persouage, sit here in
m3’ charier and wait and wait? 1 wont endure
it anil longer. Charioteer, drive on! Wash in
the Jordan! Hu! ha! Tbo slimy Jordan; tho
muddy Jordan; tho monotonous Jordan. I
wouldn't bo seen washing in such a river m
thut! Why, we watered our horses la a better
river than that on our way hero. The beauti
ful liver, tho jasper-paved river of Pharpar.
Besides that, we havo in our country
another Damasreno river, Aha ns, with fdfoged
bank aud tern nt ever swift and ever clear, un
der the flickering shadows of sycamore and
ohnndir. Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers
.f Damascus, better than all the water* of is-
otl?”
1 suppose Naaman felt very muon ns wo
would feel If, by way of medical prescription,
si u.c ono should tell us to go and wash in tho
Danube or the Rhine. Wo would answer: “Are
not the Connecticut or the Hudson Juri-an
good?” Or, a» an Englishman would fuol if ho
were told, by way of medical prescription, ho
i ui-t go nml wash in thoMi-wituippi or .-St. Law*
erne. He would cry out: “Are not tho
1 hemes and the Hhnimon just as well?” Tho
fuct was that haughty Naaman needed to learn
— what cVcry Englishman and every Americau
neid* to learn—that when God tells you to do
u thing, you must go and do it, whethor you
umlcntand the reason or not. Take tho pro-
script fon, whether you like it or not. One
thing to rertain: Unless haughty Naaman doc*
as Kii-ba commands him, ho will die of hto aw
ful sickness. And unless you do as Cbrhtcora-
insnil* you, you will bo seized ttpou by an ever
lasting wasting away. Obey and live—disobey
nnd die. Thrilling, over-arching, undfir-glnl-
lug, stupendous alternative!
Well, General Naaman could not stand the
test. The charioteer give* a Jerk to the right
line until the bit snaps in the horse’s mouth,
nnd the whirr of the wheels and tbo dying of
tin dust show the indignation of the greatcom-
mnndtr. “Ho turned and went away in a
rage.” Bo per pie now often get mad at relig
ion. They vituperate against minister*, against
churches,against Christian people. One wo lid
think from their irate behavior that God had
lx i n studying how to annoy and exasperate
nnd demolish them. What ha* He been doing?
Only trying to cure their death-dealing lep-
resy. That is ail. Yet they whip up their
horses, they dig iu the spurs, and they goaway
in a rage.
Bo, after all. it seems that this health excur
sion of General Naaman to to be a dead feilure.
That little Hebrew captive might a* well hive
not told him of the prophet, nnd Chi* long
Journey might as well not have been taken.
Voor. rick,dying Naaman! are you going away
hi high dudgeon, and worse than when you
came? As his chariot halts a moment, his ser
vants clamber ty» in it and coax him to do as
Elisha raid. They say: “It's easy. If the
prophet had told you to walk fora mile on
sharp spikes, in order to get rid of thto awful
disease, yen would have done It. It to easy.
Come, my lord, just get down and wa*h in the
Jordan. You toko a bath every day. anyhow,
and in this climate it to so hot that it will do
you good. Do it on onr account, and for the
rake of the army you command, and for the
take of the nation thst admires you. toms,
my lord, just try this Jordanie bath.” “H ell, ’
he says, '‘to please you I will do as yon say.
The retinue drive to the brink of the Jordan.
The horros paw and jseigh to got Inta the
stream thexnaelTM and cool their hot flanks.
Gtiu-ral Nauman, assistedjby hto attendant*,
gt-ibuoMii out of the chariot uud painfully
it-mt 8 to the brink of the river, and steps iu
uutil the water comes to tho auklo, and goo*
ou deeper uutil the water comes to tho girdle,
and now standing so tor down In the stream,
just a little inclination of tbo head will thor
oughly iuimeiEe hiiu. Hu bows once into tho
. flood, uud comes up and shakes the water out
of nostrils and eyes; aud his attendants look at
him. and Eay: "Why, general, how much (let
ter you do look.” And ho bows a second timo
into the flood and comes up, aud tho wild stare
if* goue out of hto eye. Ho bows tho third
time into tho flood aud comes up, and tlio
shrivelled flesh has got smooth again. Ho
toms tho fourlh timo inti tlio flood and
con es up, and tho lmir that had fallen out is
restored in thick locks again all ovor tho brow.
He bows the fifth time Into tho Bood and comes
up, and tho hoarseness has gono out of his
threat. Uo bows the sixth tiino and comes up.
aud all tho sorcnoM aud anguish havo gone out
ol the liuibs. “Why,” ho says, “I am almost
well, but I will make a complete euro,” and ho
hows tho seventh timo into tho flood and ho
comes up, nnd not so much as a fester, or scale,
or an eruption os big as tho head of a pin, is to
lie seen ou him. Ho steps out on tho bank and
says: “Is it possible?” And tho attendant*
look and toy: “Is it possible?” And as, with
tlio health of an athlete, ho bounds back into
the chariot nml drives on, thero goes up from
all hto attendants a will “huzza! httzxs!” Of
coiirre they go bock to pay ami thank tho man
of God for hto counsel so fraught with wisdom.
When they left tho prophet’s house, they went
off mad; they havo come back glad.
People always think better of a mini Aor af
ter they nro converted than they do before
conversion. Now we nro to them nn intolera
ble nultanco because we tel! thorn to do things
thut go against tho grain; hut some of us havo
n great luuny letters from tboso who tell us
that once they were nugry at wlmt wo preached,
but nftctwnrds gladly received tlio gospel at
onr hands. They onco called us fanatics, or
terrorists, or enemies; now they call us friends.
Yonder to a man—I speak a literal fact—who
raid that be would never conic into tho church
iirnin. He said tlmt two 3’car* ago. Ho said:
• My family shall never como hero again if
Min n doctrines us that arc preached.” lint ho
emne again, and hto family canto again. Ho is
a ( hristiuu and hto wife a Christian, all hto
children Christians, tho wholo household
Chrtotinn, nud I shall dwell with them in tho
hi.tiEo of tlio Lord forever. Our mi dying coad*
jutois are those who ouco heard tho gospel aud
‘went away iu a rage.” •
Now, my hcaroiM, you notice tlmt this Gener
al Naaman did two things iu order to got well.
Tho first was—ho got out of his chariot. Hu
might have stayed there w ith lito swollen foot
ou the stuffed ottoman, seated on that embroid
ered cushion, until his hut gasp, ho would nov-
er have got any relief. Ho had to get down
out of liia chariot. And you havo got to got
down out of the chariot of 3'otir pride if you
ever become a Christian. You canuot drivo up
to tbo crow with a coarh-and-four, nud bo sav-
1 (1 among all tho Bpauglcs. You sceiu to think
that the Lord to going to lie ooinplimontcd by
your coming. Oh, no; you poor, miserable,
Miily, leprous sinner, get down out
of that! Wcall como in tho same haughty
way. Wo expect to rido into tho
kingdom of God. Never until w*o get down on
our knees will wo find mercy. Tho Lord has
unhorred us—nnchariotod ui. Got down out of
your pride. Get down out of your solf-right-
t outncES nud hyitcrcritletom. Wo hnvo all got
to do that. Thut is tho journey wo havo got to
msko on our knees. It to onr infernal prido
thut keeps us from getting rid of tho leprofy
of sin. Dear laird, what havo wo to bo proud
of? Proud of our scale*? Proud of our uncle *n-
mss? Proud of this killing infection? Bring
us down at thy feet, weeping, praying, peni
tent, believing supplicants!
“For slum re. Lord, Tnou earnest to blood.
And I’m n sinner vile indeed.
Lord. I believe Thy graeo Is free;
Oh, magnify that grace in me.”
But bo had not only to get down out of hto
chariot. Ho had to wash “Oh,” >*ou say, “I
am very careful of my ablutions. Every day
I plunge into a bright and beautiful bath.”
An, my hearer, there to a flood brighter than
any other. It to the flood that breaks from tho
granito of the eternal bills. It to the flood of
pardon, aud peace, and llfo, and heaven. That
flood started in tho tears of Christ and tho
sweat of Getbacmane, and rolled on, accumu
lating flood, until all earth and heaven could
bathe in ft. Zachartoh called it tho “fountain
open for sin and unclcanncas.” William Cow-
tier called it tho “fountaiu filled with blood.”
Your fathers and mothers washed all thoir
sina and sorrows away in that fountain. Ob,
my hearers, do yon not today fool like wading
Into it? Wailo down now into thto glorious
flood, deeper, deeper, deeper. Plungo once,
twice, three, four times, five times, six times,
seven times. It will take as much as that to
cure your soul. Oh* wash, wash, wash, and bo
clcanl
1 suppose that was a great time at Damascus
when General Naaman sot back. Tho char
ioteers did not have to drivo slowly any longer
lest they jolt the invalid: but, as the horses
dished along the streets or Damascus, I think
tho people rushed out to hall hack their chief
tain. Naninan’s wife hardly recognised her
hinhand; he was so wondorfally changed sho
had to look at him two or three times before
she made out that It was her restored husband.
And tho little captive maid, sho rushed out,
c'applns her bands and shouting: “Did he care
you? Did he cure you?” Thou music woko up
tlio palace, and the tapestry of the windows
was drawn away that tbe multitude outside
might mingle with tho princely mirth insido,
and the feet went up and down In tbe dance,
and all the streets of Damascus that night ech
oed nud rc-cchoed with the news: “Naamau's
cured! Naaman’scured!”.
But n gladder tunc than that It would lie in
all this place or wherever this sermon shall be
rind, if tbe soul should got cured of its leprosy
Tho Ewifleet white horso hftehoc^to the king's
chariot would rush the tic w* into the Etcrnri
city. Our beloved ones before the tkrono
would welcome tho glad tidings. Your chil
li ron on earth with more emotiou than the lit
tle nriircw captive, would notice the chan go In
your look, and the change In your manner, and
would put their arms around your neck and
xnv: “Mother. I guess you must havo become
m C liririian. Father, I think you havo got rid
r f the leprosy.” O, Lord God of Elisha, havo
mercy on us!

A PIONEER PREACHER.
An EvangeUiit ho swept Through Goorgla
Liko a Flauio of Fire.
Rev. J. Tlicmss l*ato has in tho Southern
Bivouac for December a graphic sketch of an
itinerant miutotcr in the Methodist church iu
tli© early years of this century. IIo aiys:
The Bouth Carolina conference of 189>mct in
the city of Charleston. Asbury, tho man of toll
and hardship, and Whatcont, the man whose life
exemplified the truo idea of Chri-tian perfec
tion, alternately presided. Twelve men were
admitted on trial. Among them were tho two
Pierce brothers, Lovick and Reddick, strangely
dissimilar in their minds and physical nuturos,
each having *i>ccial gifts aud special bent* of
mind that have thrown around their namos an
influcncons fragrant as tho gardens of Italy.
Tho eighth man of the twclvo was considered
thq weakest and poorest oxcuso for a preacher of
tho whoic number.
Five feet ten inches.high, compactly, but not
stoutly built, symmetrica! inform, blundering
in manners, coarsely dressed, ho did not look
liko good material out of which to construct a
pulpit orator. His cducatiounl attainment*
were poor. “lie could not road well,” know
scarcely anything of the rules of grammar, and
hto spelling w as fearfully defective. Hto actions
and conversation wero “boring.” A keen ob
server would notice that sometimes a peculiar
light flushed from hto eyes; tho light aootnxl to
indicate great talent in somo direction; itciiio
from latent power, concealed by n rough exte
rior. When the light would pas* away tho gray
cyca would asfcumo a dull appearance.
HIS FAST LIVE
had been ono hard struggle with ad verso clr-
cumatouces. From tho cradlo to manhood ho
luid wrestled with poverty. Ho knew by actual
experience the meaning of “bitter want.”
Thcro had been no “bitter sweet,” but only
“bitter bitterness.” In this hour, tilts long.
tiroEomc. heart-breaking hour of trial, he re
ceived 110 word of cucouragomonC. Ho waa
making every effort to ho a man; n kind ward
would lmve been a Imlm to hto weary spirit; but
this kind word lie never heard.
After being thoroughly converted, ho hoard
tho voice of God speaking, saying: “Go pro tch
tho gospel.” lie was deeply conscious of hto
lack of qualification; it was hard to bollovo tlio
voice. Glddcon-like, ho wnnted proof. Tho
proofs were given; ho was convinced. Ho wont
to hto pastor nnd opened his heart. “Go to the
plow; do you think God would dtograco hto
ministry by calling such n man as you nro to
preach? No, man, you aro not railed. It i* only
the voice of presumption you hear.” Tlio words
cut like the Toledo blade. Ho wcut back to Iris
work, but the voice, like Bauquo’s ghost, could
not be kept <iuict. IIo earoe again to his pastor
—who l»>* this time had relcntod somewhat—
ur.d tacitly gave him liconso to oxhort. Home
suerrsa grow* out of hto labors. Encoumgml by
these signs of nromiso ho canto to tho quarterly
conference anil n-ked for a license to preach,
and recommendation to tho annual conference
for ndmiasion on trial.
Though composed in tho main of men who
dressed “in jeans, woro broguns.” and took no
stork in “took lamin’ an’ cdication,” of moti
who were somewhat biassed in hto favor, still
the application kindled a smilo that resembled
contempt as “tho mist resemble* the rain.”
“How wus It possible to make a proochor out
of such a rough, kuotty stick?” Much discus
sion ensued.
LOt* I) TALK A TCP JRERI80 I.AUUIM
were heard. At thto juucturo a “James the
Just” arose and espousod his canso. Hto votco
prcxnilt-d, the request was granted, and to the
conference hto application wont. Provblonco
smiled upon hi*cause. He was received on triil,
and sent as Junior preacher on a back woo l’s
circuit in tbo mountains of western North Car
olina. This raw. uncouth, ungainly young mm
wan James Russell, tho most roiuarkablo Meth
odist preacher tlmt over traveled within tlio
totinds cf tho stato of South Carolina. IIo de-
tumbled to show tho world that ho waa no
“gum log,” and to manifoit to hto friends, wh
tv< rc a*scarce os angel visitors, that tliolr confi
dence waa not misplaced.' Ho was In dead earn
est Ills fag© wn**ut toward success; to this point
ho would go ordle. Th«ro was a kind of gran
deur that shone around his bead like a bright
halo tho morning ho started on ills circuit,
though exceedingly plainly droased and un
couth In his manners.
Reaching hto circuit, he began to study and
to work. Ilia library was small, hto books wero
few, but they were enoleo—a Bible, a hym-book
and an American speller. Others had aucceoded;
when discouraged and cast down their suocess
cheered hia heart and urged him forward.
Around the biasing chostnut flro of tho moun
tain cabin, while tlie atrong. healthy wlfo was
busy spinning thread, and tno grim old farmer
waa enjoying hto pijio, listening to tho music of
tbe wheel, he and the children wero absorbed in
hto speller. The children taught him to road’
and spell well.
iuangi.P BR0APR1VKD
nml lengthened. As be became acquainted with
hto charge, bo would hear of a book hero and
one thero. These books he toon saw, and It was
uot long before he knew their contents.
Preaching twenty-two times a month, he put
in practice all he learned. As tbe year rounded
to a close, he had wonderfully improved. In a
few years hto preaching revealed a logical elo
quence of more than usual power. In Georgia
he swept through hi* charges like a flame of
fire, old and young, rich ana poor, and high and
low were brought to God. lie studied, prayed
and preached. It was not long before ho wa*
recognized aa the most attractive pulpit oratorof
the south. Tho father of the late Governor
Gilmer beatd him, and having heard all the
tutuou* men of his day, remarked, “Never man
*1 oko like thto man.’^ Like John the Baptist,
in* Fomettnus came, sweeping away tho Inst
fonudntion-stone underneath the sinner, leav
ing him sinking rapidly Into end lees night; then
lie would come with all tho tendornes* of the
erottlc of love; throwing his arms around the
sinner's neck, with hot tears coursing down his
rhrrkN, bo would point him to tho L*vmh of
Gcd, thut taketb away tho sins of the world
ThoiiEnndH wero attracted to his ministry, and
hundreds wero turned Into tho “strait gate”
and directed to the sweet fluid* of Eden.

city, nnd was mllnl upon by quit© a number of
promincut citizens, biuco lito visit to the south
in 1H07, the revolution in prognw* therein pass
ed hto belief. He enlarged on the protective
taritl as tie salvation of the south aa it had been
of the north,
“Why do we want a protective tariff/” he
a>dud. “In order tluit the people may havo

sldcN making cotton. He stated that the color
ed lnWi-r in the iron work* of tho south re-
criwd more money for hto work than thoaver-
c farmer of Tennessee or Alabama make* in
a whole year, for when credit prices aro paid
for providuiiH, and the guano hill paid, there to
little left to the fanner’s share. Protection, ho
lx lievtd, would enhance the price of cotton
m.d thus benefit tlio farmer. Tlio south
undid more Industries. Tho sav
ings of working peoplo in the
New England states deposited in hanks would
buy every acre of land in Alabama; pay for
every mile of railway; buy every locomotive in

silver dollars to tbdr credit still. The north
ws»h prosperous because of It* diversification of
industries nml because) everybody worked.
