12 TALMAGE'S SERMON. THE DOCTOR TAKES FOR HIS SUB JECT, “THE BEAR A RAI OF GOB,” And Preaches to a Largo Avdience the 'Evils of the World and the Work Neces sary to Subdue Them. Brooklyn, January 21.—Singularly appro priate and Impressive was the old gospel hymn as it was sung this morning by the thousands of Brooklyn tabernacle led on by cornet and organ: “Arm of the Lord, awake, awake! I’ut on thy strength, the nations shake. Rev. Dr. Talmage took for his subject, ••The Bare Arm of God.” the text being Isaiah Lii: 10—“ The LoriX hath made bare His holy arm.” It almost takes our breath away to read Borne of the Bible imagery. There is such boldness of metaphor in my text that 1 have been for some time getting my cour age up to preach from it. Isaiah, the evan gelistic prophet, is sound.ng the jubilate of our planet redeemed, and cries out. Ihe Lord hath made bare His holy arm. W hat overwhelming suggestiveness in that figure o£ speech, “The bare arm of God!" The people of Palestine to this day wear much hindering appare., and when they want to run a special race, or lift a special bur den, or fight a special battle, they put off the outside apparel, as in our land, wiien u man proposes a special exertion he puts oft his coat and rolls up his sleeves. It alk through our foundries, our machine shops, our mines, our factories, and you will find that most of the toilers have their coat off and their sleeve rolled up. Isaiah saw that there must be a tremend ous amount of work done before this world becomes what it ought to be, and he fore becomes what it ought to I e, and He tore secs it a;' aceumpli'lied, and accomplish 1 by the Almighty; not as we ordinarily think of Him, but by the Almighty with the sleeve of His robe rolled b.. k to His shoul der: “The Lord hath made bare His holy Nothing more impresses me in the Bible than me ease with which God does most things.

Nou I ask, for the benefit of all dish.-artr-ned Christian work- rs. if God ace m’-lisl'.- l so tnm-li with His fingers, what cm He do when He puts out all limbers all the b.ntrrics of His omnipo tence? Tin* Bible sp-aks a fin and again of God’s outstr-tcherl arm. b it only once, and that in the text, of the bare arm of Jiy text makes it plain that the rectifica- tion of this world is a stupendous undertak ing. It takes more power to make this world over again than it took to make it at first. A word was only necessary for the first cre ation. but for the new creation the unsleev ed and unhindered forearm of the Almighty! The reason of that I can understand. In the shipyards of Liverpool, or Glasgow, or New York, a great vessel is constructed. The architect draws out the plan, the length of the beam, the capacity of tonnage, the rotation of wheel or screw, the cabins, the masts and all the appointments of this great palace,of the deep. The architect finishes his work without any perplexity, and the carpenters and the artisans toil on the craft so many hours a day, each one doing his part, until with flags flying, and thousands of people huzzaing on the docks, the vessel is launched. But out on the sea that steamer breaks her shaft and is limp ing slowly along toward harbor, when Carib bean whirlwinds, those mighty hunters of the deep, looking out for prey of ships, surround that wounded vessel and pitch it on a rocky coast, anil she lifts and falls in the breakers until every joint is loose, and every spar is down, anil every wave sweeps over the hurricane deck as she parts mid ships. Would it not require more skill and power to get that splintered vessel off the rocks and reconstruct it than it required originally to build her? Aye! Our World that God built so beautiful, and which started out witii all the flags of Edenic foli age and witii the'chant of paradisaical bowers, has been sixty centuries pounding in the skerries of sin and sorrow, and to get her out, and to get her off, and to get her on the right way again, will require more of Omnipotence than it required to build her and launch her. So I am not surprised that though in the dry-dock of one word our world was made, it will take the unsleeved arm of God to lift her from the rocks and put her on the right course again. It is evi dent from my text, and its comparison with other that it would not be so groat an undertaking to make a whole constellation of worlds, and a whole galaxy of worlds, and a whole astronomy of worlds, and swing them in their right orbits, as to take this wounded world, this stranded world, this bankrupt world, this destroyed world, and make it as good as when it started. Now, just look at the enthroned difficul ties In the way, the removal of which, the overthrow of which seem to require the bare right arm of Omnipotence. There stands heathenism, with its f'.'.OiW.O'iO victims. 1 do not care whether you call them Brah mins, or Buddhists, Confucians or Fetish idolaters. At the world's fair in Chicago last summer those monstrosities of religimi tried to make themselves respectable, but the long hair and baggy trousers and trink eted robes of their representatives cannot hide from the world the fact that those reli gions are the authors of funeral pyre, and Jugcrnaut crushing, and Ganges infanticide, and Chinese shoe torture, and the aggre gated massacres of many centuries. They have their heels on India, on China, on Per sia, on Borneo, on three-fourtlis of the acreage of our poor old world. 1 know that the missionaries, who are the most sacri ficing and Christ-like men and women on earth, are making steady and glorious in roads upon these built-up abominations of the centuries. All this stuff that you see in some of the newspapers about the mission aries as living in luxury anil idleness is promulgated by corrupt American or Eng lish or Scotch merchants, whose loose be havior in heathen cities has been rebuked by the missionaries, and these corrupt mer chants write home or tell innocent and un suspecting visitors in India or China or the darkened islands of the sea, these falsehoods about the consecrated missionaries who, turning t.qcir backs on home and civilization and emolument and comfort, spend their lives in trying to introduce the mercy of the gospel among the downtrodden of hea thenism. Some of tiiose merchants leave their families in America or England or Scotland, and stay for a. few years in the ports of heathenism while they are making their fortunes in the tea or ri or opium trade, and while they aie thus absent from home, give themselves to orgies of disso luteness, such as no pen or tongue could, without the abolition of all decency, at tempt to report. 'l’he presence of the mis sionaries witii their pure aril noble house holds in those heathen ports, is a coi tant rebuke t ■ sm< h del 1 miscreants. If Satan should visit h< aven, from which he was once roughly but justly expatriated, and he should write home to the realms pandemoniac, his correspondence published in Diabolos Gazette, or Apollyonic News, about what he had seen, he would report the temple of God and the lamb as a broken-down church, and the house of many mansions as a disreputable place, and the Cherubium as suspicious of in >ia!s. Sin never did like holiness, and you had better not depend upon Satani*' report of the svib lime and multipotent work of our mission aries in foreign lauds. But notwithstanding ail that these men and women of God have aohievi d, they feel, and we all foci that if the idolatrous lands are to be Christianized, there not !s to be a power from th- heavens tlmt has not yet condescended, and we feel like crying out in the words of Charles M'Sley: Arm of the I.ord, awake, awake, Put on Thy strength, the nations shake! Aye, it is not only the laird's arm that is needed, the holy arm, the outstretched arm, but the bare arm! There, too. stands Mohammedanism, with its 176,000.000 victims. Its Bihl is the Ko ran, a book not quite as large as our New Testanuni, which was revealed to Mo hammed when in epileptic fits, and resusci tated from these fits, he dictated it to pie than any other book > ver written. Mo hs inmed, the founder of that religion, a po lygamist, with superfluity of wives, the first s:. p of his religion on the body, mind and •aven of the Koran is an everlasting Sod om, an infinite seraglio, about which Mo hammed promised that each follower shall have in that place seventy-two wives, in lition to all the wives he had on earth, but that no old woman shall ever enter heaven. When a bishop of Englund re cently proposed that the 'nest way of saving Mohammedans was to I t them keep their religion, but engraft upon it some new prin ciples from Christianity, lie perpetrated an evclesia tlcal joke, at which no. man can laugh, who has ever seen the tyranny and domestic wretchedness which always ap pear where the religion gets foothold. It lias marched across continents, and now proposes to set up its filthy and accursed banner in America, and what, it has done for Turkey, it would like to do for our na tion. A religion that brutally treats wo manhood ought never to be fostered in our country. But there never was a religion so absurd or wicked that it did not get dis ciples, and there are enough fools in Amer ica to make a large discipleship of Moham medanism. This corrupt religion has been making steady progress for hundreds of years, and notwithstanding all the splendid work done by the Jessups, and the Goodells, and the Blisses, and the Van Dykes, and the Posts, and the Misses Bowen.., and the Misses Thompsons, and scores of other men and women if w horn the world was not worthy, there it stands, the giant of sin, Mohammedanism, with one foot on the heart of won an and the other on the heart of Christ, whil« - mumbles from its mina rets this stupendous blasphemy: “God is great, and Mohammed is his prophet.” Let the Christian printing presses at Beyrout and Constantinople keep on witii their work, and the men and women of God in the mis sion fields toil until the Lord crowns them, but what we are all hoping for is something supernatural from the heavens, as yet un seen, something stretched down out of the skies, something like an arm uncovered, the bare arm of the god of nations! There stands also the arch demon of al coholism. Its throne is white, and made of bleached human skulls. On one side of tlmt throne of skulls kneels in obeisance and worship, democracy, and on the other side, republicanism, and the one that kisses the cancerous and gangrened foot of this despot the oftencst gets the most benedic tions. There is a Hudson river, an Ohio, a Mississippi of strong drink rolling through this nation, but as the rivers from which I take my figure of speech empty into the Atlantic or the gulf, this mightier flood of sickness, and insanity, and domestic ruin, anil crime, and bankrupc.y, and woe, emp ties into the hearts, and the homes, and the churches, and the time and the eternity of a multitude beyond all statistics to number or describe. All nations are mauled and scarified with baleful stimulus, or killing narcotic. The pulque of Mexico, the cashew of Brazil, the hasheesh of Persia, the opium of China, the guavo of Honduras, the wedro of Russia, the soma of India, the aguar diente of Morocco, the arak of JNTA. G THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION; A r . * ...A, GA., TUESDAY, JANUARY 23, 1894. Arabia, the mastic of Syria, the raki of Turkey, the beer of Ger many, tlie whisky of Scotland, the ale of England, the all-drinks of Amer ica are doing their best to stupefy, inflame, dement, impoverish, brutalize and slay the human race. Human power unless rein lorced from the heavens can never extir pate the evils I mention. Much good has meen accomplished by the heroism and fidelity of Christian re formers, but the fact remains that there are more splendid men and magnificent women this moment going over tlie Niagara abysm of inebriety than at any time since the first grape was turned into wine, and the first bead of rye began to soak in a brewery. When people touch this subject they are apt to give statistics as to how many millions are in drunkards’ graves, or with quick tn a 1 marching on toward them, 'i’he land is full of talk of high tariff anil low tariff, but what about tlie highest of all tariffs In this country, the tariff of $900,000,000 which rum put upon the Cnited States in IS9I, for that is what it cost us. You do not trembie or turn pale when 1 say that. 'l’he fact is we have become hardened by statistics and they make little impression. But if some one could gather into one mighty lake all the tears that have been wrung out of or phanage and widowhood; or into one organ diapason' all the groans that have been uttered I>y the suffering victims of this holocaust; or into one whirlwind all the sighs of centuries of dissipation; or from the wicket of one immense prison have look upon ns the glaring eyes of all those whom strong drink lias endungeoned. we might perhaps realize the appalling di solation. But, no. no, the sight would forei'T blast our vision: tlie sound would forever still our souls. Go on with your lemperance literature; go on with your temperance platforms; go on with your temperance laws. But we are all hop ing for something from above, and while the bare arm of suffering, and the bare arm of invalidism, and the bare arm of poverty, and the bare arm of domestic desolation, from which rum hath torn the sleeves, are lift' d up in beggary and supplication and despair, let tlie bare arm of God strike the breweries, and tlie liquor stores, and the corrupt polities, and the license laws, and the whole inferno of grog shops all around tlie world. Down, thou accursed bottle, from the throne! Into the dust, Hum king of the demijohn! Parched be thy lips, thou wine cup, with fires tlmt shall never be quenched! But 1 have no time to specify tlie mani fold evils that challenge Christianity. And I think I irnve seen in some Christians, and read in some newspapers, and heard from some pulpits, a dislpartenment, as though Christianity were so worsted that it is hardly worth while to attempt to win this world for God, and that all Christian work would collapse, and that it is no use for you to teach a. Sabbath class, or distribute tracts, or i xhort in prayer meetings, or preach in a. pulpit, as Satan is gaining ground. To rebuke that pessimism, ‘lie gos pel of -mashup, I preach this sermon, show ing that yon are on the winning side. Go ahead! Eight on! What I want to make oal today is that our ammunition is not exhausted; that all which has been, accom plished Ims been only the skirmishing be fore the great Armageddon; that not more than one of the thousand fountains of beauty in the King’s park has begun to play; that not more than one brigade of the innumerable hosts to be marshaled by the rider on the white horse lias yet taken the field: that what God has done yet has been with arm folded in flowing robe; but that the time is coming when he will rise from his throne, and throw oft that robe, and come out of tlie palaces of eiernitv. and come down the stairs of heav en with all-conquering step, and halt in the presence of expectant nations, and flashing his omniscient eyes across the work to be done, will put back the sleeves of his ri ;iit arm to tlie shoulder, ami roil it up there, and for the world’s final and com plete rescue make bare his arm. Who can doubt the result when according' to my text Jehovah docs his best: when th ' ■''•«- serve force of omnipotence takci’p;rass and ; when th'* last sword of eti warm all tlio c leaps from its scabbard. •*’■- tiny biowit v ■ I : non on the hills.

January 21.—(Special.)— The quietude of this city was disturbed yesterday by the appearance in our midst of a handsomely dressed woman in the garb of a New York hospital nurse claim ing to be a doctor from that city. On her arrival in Charlotte she took rooms at the Central hotel and soon afterwards was in troduced io Charlotte's female doctor, Dr. Annie L. Alexander.

This was repeated sev eral times and after getting pretty well un der the influence of hex- toddy, she hurried ly put. on her hat and went around to the it doctors of the city, paying Hi- -m ii: . liv call. She introduced herself as an a. i. iant of Dr. T. G.dlliard Thomas, ot Nt w York, and also said that she was at one time associated with Dr. Austin Elint, also of New York. Tlie impression she made on the medical fraternity of Charlotte was that she was I a fraud, but her manner and familiarity with nr lie-.1 lit. i.m.n ■ kept the doctors p nest ing for awhile. On entering one ol the drug stores she was introduced to a Phy ia.li, who at this time is not. practie- t i:e- his profession. The two drank several pla sos wiiiskv an I started out to call on mother physician. They had not gone far before both were staggering.

The men are idle and some violence is reported. Tomorrow* tlie votes cast by the local unions upon a propo sition to make a reduction in the scale will : b.- canvassed in Columbus, it is learned I tlmt of the votes already cast, repre ' seating over 2,000 miners, there is a ina j jority against the reduction. It is thought I that this majority will be overcome by re ' turns from c istern Ohio. Many of the <"n- I tracts have gone to Pennsylvania operalors. Fifteen cents is offered, but the men insist i upon 20 cents and a change of the working hours. In any event tin* future is most gloomy for the mine workers of Ohio. THE KI .

HOW THEY EAT IN WAIT TO DEFEE OP PURE CUSSEDNESS. A New and Startling Theory—Tlie Sly Mai evolence of Every Day Articles in Get ting Even with “Mister Man.” It is high time for some scientist who wants to do something really practical and be of genuine and substantial benefit to the human race to write a treatise on the pure eiissedness and deep depravity of inanimate things. The subject has never been treated from a strictly scientific stand point. althO'ivh there is data a-plenty lying around locse in every bod; experii nee and fame and fortune are certainly awaiting the individual who will proffer an explanation und suggest a remedy.

In short, mm is pursued from tb.e cradle to the grave by the diabolical malice of those inanimate things he seeks to make his servants and who take tnis method of getting square with him. The poet, Cowper, who whined about it being: “Ever thus since childhood's hours— My fondest hopes decay”— ' I' ■ 1 ir hail some uiKiing into the true of aitairs, b u 15 wasn’t enough ot a'j philosopher to iig-i ure tlie thing' out. ?

The holder is the WHERE FACES heaviest and by the BREAK, mw oi gravity that should strike first, but on the contrary it is always the point, which is sure to be bent, particularly if it is the only one in the house and you have an important letter to write. Who ever knew of a shoe lace to break anywhere except nt the bottom holo, which is exactly where it can't be spliced? There is no plausible reason why it should br ik there for it is subject to no abrasion what ever at that point, but not a single shoe lace in tlie whole history of th'' world was ever known to give way anywhere else. This is pure, unadulterated malice; that is all. And there are times, moreover, when in animate objects exhibit a fiendish ingenuity in these outrages against mankind. This is evidenced by the fact that when a man comes home at night and wants to light the gas he goes all t.Moiigh his clothes and invariably discovers a lone match in his vest pocket. He seizes it with joy, it eludes his fingertips and after five minutes’ chase gets it in :< corner and triumphantly draws it out. Tt proves to be a toothpick.
