Among the Mightiest of the Nation???s Perils in tbo l net Thai Politic/il Bribery Hu Ceased to be Called a Vice. American Institutions Threatened Vfith Destruction. Bbookltn, October 12.???Dr. Talmsge began a very interesting series of political sermons to-day. The Brooklyn tabernacle was crowd ed. Indeed, if the church were twice aa large now it would no more than Accomodate the people that come. The hymn sung to-day was, "My country ???Ms of thee Sweet laml ot liberty |??? The subject of tho sermon was: ???Things that Threaten the Dectruciion of Amerioan Institutions." The text Was Revolutions xviii 10 to 18; ???Alas, alas, .that great city Babylonj that mighty city l for in one hour is thy judg ment come. And tho merchants of the earth ???hall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise flay more. Tho merchandise of gold,andl silver, and precious ftones, and of pearls nod fine linen, and pur ple, and wlk, and scarlet, and all thyino wood, and all manner .vessel?? of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, andiroti; and marble, and cinnamon, and odors,'/an# ointments, and freiikineense, and wjne,und oil r and fineilour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves; and souls of men."

' An.org the mightiest of the nstioial perils is .the foci that political bribery has cease I to f*- called a vice, and is by many looked HfK>o ts a'commci.dsble virtoe. The five hundred ^???.heusard di liars this aptiinm sentby one - T* r< ?' ' rtw Ghio, and ss much by ihe o???h.fr 1 arty if they can raise it???whs' for? It is le gitimate and right to spend money for polfti- < at tracts, and.lor hall rent, ami Aw ewuipnirn ??? rr.tr ry, but is there here any homunculus who ???tij.t i+*t that these great sums of money are jdl to be thus expended. Everybody knows that most of it is to buy votes. Hundreds of people will have put before them so much for the republican voto'and so much for tho dem ocratic vote, and the superior financial in ducement will decide tho action. Next Tues day Ohio, the pivotal state, will speak. I can tell you which party will carry the day. The party that spends the most money. My sym pathies are (or Ohio (rom Lake Erie.to Ken tucky???s borders, its 39,064 square miles swept by the scourge of political bribery. The ped dlers with gold (rom Wall street, aud gold from State street, and gold from Third street, ore now in the hotels or Cincinnati and Cleve land and Columbus, and in all the political headquarters of the state, dealing out tho in famous inducements. Iu addition to the brib ery o( voters in that state the success of this election will be used as a bribo to tho whole nation, inducing the meu who ait on the fence to get off and go with the triumphant party for some one of the hundred thousand offices at disposal.. The election in Ohio, no matter which way it will go, will not be any indication of whom that state wants for presi dent, but only an indication as to which party has the fullest exchequer. At the close of the last presidential election, at a banquet in New York, celebrative of the jrcnult, and in tho presenoe of one ex-presi dent, and in the presence of one who after ward became president, it was stated without rebuke that Indiana had been carried by bribery, although that word was not used, but a more proverbial word, namely, soap. In other days bribery existed,, but???was a sin that held down its head in shame. Utmost secrcsy was enjoined, when, many years ago, the legislature and other oflleiala of Wiscon sin w ere bought up by a railroad company, The governor received $50,000 for his signa ture. His privato secretary received $5,000. Thirteen members of the senate received $176,000 among them in bonds. Sixty mem bers of tho otber houso received from fivo to tenYbousand dollars each. ' The lieutenant- g overnor received $10,000, tho clerks of the ouse from five to ten thousand dollars each. The bank comptroller received $10,000. Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars were dis tributed among the lobbyists. So you ace that the railroad company was very liberal. But nothing except the severest scrutiny and an exploration of a legislative committee ex- j used it. Bribery is to-day fearless of arrest arrogant and defiant, and will decide the elec tion on the first Tuesday of next November. It this diabolism go on, Bartholdi???s statue of liberty on Bedloc???s island, with uplifted torch to light nations into our harbor, had better bo changed so that the torch shall bo dropped, as a symbol of national incendiarism. If there be no power to stop this purchase and snlo of suflrsges, our government will perish; not by foreign hand, but by its own perfidy, aud you had better get ready the monument for an other Read nation aud let my text chisel on it the epitaph: "Alas, alas, that great city Baby lon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment conic. ??? Another thing threatening tho destruction of American institutions is the soliditVing of the sections against each other???a solid north against a solid south. Unless this is broken up, alter a while wc shall h&vo a solid west against a solid east, solid middlo states against solid northern states. It is nineteen years since the war ended, and yetovery presiden tial election somehow revives the old antag onism. When Garfield died and all the states of ihe union gathered around his casket in sympathy and in tears, I did hone that sec tionalism was done. But no. what is ncod* ed is to split every state in tho union into two or three great parties. Tho nution, if it is to live, must become one great body; tho na tional capital the heart, sending through ell the arteries^ of communication warmth and life to the utmost extremities. You might&s well havo a solid head against a solid foot, solid eyes against solid ears, and a solid noso against a solid cheek. Yea, wo are one fam ily, and you might as well havo brothers solid against their sisters, and tho bread tray solid against the cradle, and this dining room solid against the parlor. That which is the Interest oi Georgia is the interest of Massa chusetts, and that which is best for Now York is best for South Carolina. Tho Ohio river does not change its politics after it goes below LouinvilIc,yct every four years on Mason and Dixon???s Ifno both sections hang out theft,po litical' washing. Have you any idea that thero great sectional antagonisms can exist itli< ut permanent compound Iracturo? Another thing threatening the destruction ! cur American institutions is tho low state of ublic morals. What killed Babylon? What Died Phoenicia? What killed Rome? What killed ail the nationalities now lying stark oud ghastly in the graveyards of the past? Fraud and drunkenness and lechery, which slew otber nations, will slay ours unless God pi events it.. To provo that thero is a low state f inorals, I ca???l you to consider the cbarac- ??? r of candidates often put up for office. We have now in nomination for president aud vice-president eight men aud two women. Both the women are good. But among the eight men for theso two offices there are three candidates at least no more fit for either of these important offices than a wolf is (It to be professor ol pastorul theology over a (lock of sleep, or a blind mule to lecture a class of c ogles on the science of optics, or the vulture to chaperon the dove. The meution of aoine of tbeir names demands in the room carbolic acid and tumigation. Yet Christian men will vote for them because they carry the party standards. American politics ho?? sunk uutil there is no lower depth it can fathom. But this corresponds with what is seen iu all di rections. The peculation aud knavery burled to the surface by thu explosion of bauks and business firms are only specimens of gnat Cotopaxis and Strom boll* of wickedness that boil aud burn beneath, but havo not re- gnrgitittsd to tho surfucu. The hcavun- dtsccnded democratic party eclipsed overy thing by tho Tweed rascality, until tho beaven-urreeuded republican parly o itwitted pundtuiouium by the star mute iuiamy. Then thero are thousands of- men who scot! at the marriage relation and say there is no such thing as chastity, aud walking iu polite urlors arc meu not good enough for scaven gers iu Sodom. When I visited San Ffao- cisco, that beautiful city, the queen of the Pa cific, the mayor of the city aud the health of ficer called on mo and wanted to show me the (.'him ec quarters, so that, getting back t> tho vutilise quarters, su uiui, guttiug imu* w mu Atlantic coast, I might tell what awlul people the Chinese were. But the last night I waa in that beautiful city, standing before many thousands in their great opera bouse, I saiat ???W ill you let me frankly exprasa my full opinion?" And thay cried: "Yes, 7ft" Tfit-n i said: "The great curse of 8au Fran cisco is not the Chinese quarters, but the great curse of your city is the millionaire libertines." And some ot them sat betoro me at that time, Felix and DruiciUa. . So it is in all our cities. I nevtr swear, but when I see going about tin whipped of justice men who laugh over tbeir shame and call their damnable deeds gallantly and peccadil lo, I am tempted to hurl rea-hot anathema and to conclude that if, according to some peo- Vs theology, thero is no hell there ought .. be. There is to-day an out and out lieen^ tiousnecs iu our American cities to invoke the wrath of heaven that on the 24th of August, '??9, covered Herculaneum and Pompeii co diep in ashes that the subsequent 1806 yean have not completed tbeir exhumation. Tiiete are whole blocks of houses in some our Ame rican cities known to tho police of those cities as iu fatuous and which by paying e <4i-cers of the law a'certain amount of bush oniy get as much protection from the city government us do pubiie libraries and a??yluin* pf teurey* These great ul ors on the b *ly politic teed and gangrene away die Ufa of the nation, and the civil authority looks on their way an i exis ts Christian philaathmp.'*!' t > look ih??* other way.

I have heard that tno son of Crmsua was dumb and bad never spoken a word, but when bis father .was about to be put to death he broke the shackles of silence and cried out: ???Kill not my father.

There are other evils threatening the life of the nation arid I will in other Sabbath morn-. Jng discourses, if God continuo my life aud health, discuss them as also tlio modes in which they are to bo baulked. I am going to put before you this whole subject s? that yon will all know how to vote and . pray. This nation is not going to perish. When Alexan der beard of the wealth of the Indies, he divi ded all of Macedon amongst his soldiers. They asked him what he had kept for himself. He replied: ???Hope." And that treasure I keep bright and ghtning whatever else I surrender. Hope thou in God and He will set book these oceanic tides of devastation. Do you realize that the pxizp now being.contested for is the American Continent? Never sinco the day when, according to John Milton, Satan was ???Hurl???d headlong, (laming from the ethcrlal sky With hideous ruin and combustion down,??? has he been so busy as he is now in trying to take possession of this continent. But ne shall not have it. What a prize it is I A jewel carved in relief, the cameo of ibis planet. The Atlantic ocean parting us from overcrowded Europoon ono side and the Pacific dividing us (rom supersti tious Asia on tho other aide, and the Arctio ocean a gymnasium in which our navigators and explorers develop their courage. A con tinent ten thousand five hundred miles long. An area of seventeen million square miles, lour times larger than all of Europo, aud all but about ono-soventh capable of rieh cultiva tion. About one hundred million inhabitants. All flora and fauna. All fruitage and all grains. All precious woods and all metals.

Magnificent prize, who shall hare it, Christ or Satan ? The commerce of your riv ers, the shores of our inland seas, tho silver of cur Nevados, the gold of our Coibrados, tho wheat ofjour prairies,the rico of our Savannahs, the telescopes of our observatories, tho brain of our universities, the two ocean beaches, tho one from Baffin???s bay to Sierra del Fuego aud the other/rom Bchrmg'a straits to Cape jlorn, the temporal, spiritual and everlasting desti ny of a population which cannot be propheaiod save by Him with whom a thousand years aro is one day. Who shall have this prize of happiness? fou and 1 will help answer tho question by comcleutiotis vote, by earnest prayer, by ui>- i ight life, by inducting our families into tno duties of good citizenship, by support of ben eficent institutions, by maintenaco of churches, by putting oil our energies of mind and soul on the right side of over religious, social and national movement. A lituc further on, and it will mako no difference to us personally what becomes of this country so far as oui earthly comfort is concerned. The largest ot us will require no??? more of this land than (ho space of seven feet by three, and that will be room enough and to spare* But wo cannot now b6 indifferent to the happiness and wel fare of the generations that shall come after, and when we rise at tho trumpet call of the last day it will bo well if we find that our sepulchre, like that which Joseph of Arimathea provided for Christ, in tho midst of a garden.

A PHYSICIAN'S TESTIMONY. I was culled to see Mr. John Pearson, who w&i confined to bis bed with what appeared to be consumption of tbo worst form. As nil of his f.i-.iily hi.4 -li< -I t n in;t drer.d ??lls- caac (except hls'hall brother), bis death wns regarded as certain and soon. After exhausting all the remedies, I finally as a last resort, sent for a bottle of Brewer???s Lung Restorer and ft acted like magic. Ifo continued the use of it for some tltco and has been fully restored to healths So fax as I could discover, he had consumption, and Brewer???s Lung Restorer saved his llfo. J, O. HOLLOWAY, M. J)., * Barnosvlllo, Ga.. ANOTHER RESCUE FROM DEATH. In 1881, while sewing on a machine, my wife was taken with a severe pain in her side, which was soon followed by^hemor- ragea from her lungs, severe cough and lo ver, and could neither ent or sleep, anti Iu a few weeks was reduced to a mere skele ton. nor*stomach refused to retain any food, and the physician thought one of hor lungs was entirely gone. Ata final consul tation of two physicians her mum was pro nounced hopeless. I tried Brower???s Luug Restorer by advice of one of the physi cians, aud she began to improve aftos tho third dose. She continued the medicine, and is now iu excellent health, and is better than she bas'bcsn in leveraL years.. I believe Brower???s Lnug Restorer saved her life. BENJAMIN F. HERNDON, .
