THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION, ATLANTA. GA.. TUESDAY OCTOBER 21 1884. TWELVE PAGES. TALMAGE???S SERMON DELIVERED IN THE BROOKLYN TABERNACLE. The Ghastliest Etil of America To-day is Dinnkentiess???The Immediate L'anso of It, the Bnni Trafllc???The Two Great Political Parties. . Beookltk, October 10.???[Speciftl.]???At the Brooklyn tabernacle this morning Dr. Talmftge preached on the subject ???The Arch-Fiend of Nations.??? Before the sermon he read aud ex pefanded a chapter in regard to the destroying angel passing over Egypt, leaving one dead in every house. The opening hymn was: - ???Before Jehovah's awful throne Ye nations bow with sacred joy. Know l hat the Lord is God atone He can create and Ho destroy.??? The text was Job i. 15: ???Awake, ye drunk arda and weep and houl ye drinkers of wine!??? Nosh, the shipbuilder, said Dr. Talmago, did the best and ???worst thing for the world, Ho built on ark against a delugo of water, but introduced a deluge against which the world has ever since been trying to build au ark???a deluge of drunkenness. We hear his staggering ???tops in the opening chapters of Genesis. Bhem and Japeth tried to cover him up, but there he is, drunk on wiuc at a time in the history of the world when to say the least there was no lack- of water. Inebriation, once intro duced into Biblo times, never retroated. Abi gail, the fair and heroic wife, goes homo aftor saving the flocks ol her husband Nabal from confiecation by invaders and finds him too drunk that night to tcH him about his narrow escape. Uriah came to see DavKI and David got him drunk and so paved tho way for the despoliation of a household. Even the church hhhop in Paul's time needed charging to bo sober and not given to much- driuk, and so fa miliar was the swaying and falling movement ???f the inebriate that Isaiah, describing tho final dissolution of worlds says the earth shall reel toand fro like a drunkard. Ever since apples and grapes and wheat grew tho world has been tempted to excessive stimulant. But the intoxicant of the ancients was an innocent beverage, a harmless soda water, a feeble orange-ode, a quiet syrup comparod to the liquids employed lor modern inebriation into which a madness, a fury, a fire, a gloom, a suicide, a retribution are mixed and molted. Fermentation wss always known, but it was not until about one thousand years after Christ that distillation was invented. And whiio wo have to confess to many of tho ancient arts as lost, the Christian era surpasses all its prede cessors in tho bad eminence of whisky, gin, brandy und rum. The modern drunk is a hundred fold mightcr than tho ancient drunk. Noah???s inebriation led him to imbecile be havior but modern alcoholism sets its vjetira to struggling.with mcungeric3 of hissing rep tiles and jungles of growling tigers und perdi tions of blaspheming ddnous. An arch-fiend has landed in our world and he hat built an invisible caldron of tempta tion. Ho fins made it staunch and strong, and lie has filled it for all nations and all ages. First ho squeezed into it tho juice of tho tor- hidden fruit of Paradise. Then he nuts into it a distillation from all tho harvost fields and orchards of tho hemispheres, thon adds to it larger quantities of capsicum, copperas, mo lasses, logwood, deadly nightshade, assault and battery, vitriol, tobacco, sulphric acid, opium, murder, pokeberry, cochineal, indigo, red carrots, potash, poverty and death and hops. But still it is a dry mixture, and so to moisten and linquefy it ho pours into it the teers of many centuries of orphanage and widowhood and tho blood of twenty thousand oacasAinations. Then he takes his great shovol which he brought along with him from the nether world, the shovel once used for filling the furnaces beneath. And now ho begins to stir tho great caldron, and as ho stirs it the awlul liquefaction begins to hcavo and sputter and boil and hiss aud smoke, and men and women gather around this mammoth caldron with cups and pitchers and kegs and demi johns and bottles and allnations got thcirshiro. And tho Arch-Fiend laughs as he says: ???Ho, ha I What n champion fiend am 11 Who does inore for coffins aud graveyards and ship wrecks and prisons and Insane asylum) and for populating the nether world than I do? When this caldron is empty I will fill it again and stir it again till tho smoko of it joins tho other smoke, ???the smoko of tho torment that oscendcth forover and over.' Ha, hat I drove fifty ships on the banks of tho Newfoundland and the Goodwins. I defeated the northern armies at Fredericksburg. I slow live times as many senators os will next winter assomblo at tho American capital and fivo tiraos as many lords as will this season gather in tho llouso ofPccrs. My festalnup Is a bleocksJ human skull. and all the upholstery of my palace is such a rich crimson because it was dipped in human gore. Tho mosaic of my floor arc tbo bones of children whoso liio drunken parents dashed out. My favorite music, sweeter than To Deum or triumphal morch is tbo cry of daughters turned out at midnight on tho sttcets because father has got home from tho carousal, and the seven hun dred voiced shriek of a sunken steamor because the captain was not himself when he put tbo ship on the wrong course. 1I??, ha I Let ino thrust the shovel again into the caldron and stir it again and make it amoko agrinj Champion fiend ain I! I have kindled more fires, wrung out more ogonies, stretched out more midnight shadows, lifted moro gol* gothas, rolled more juggernauts and damued more soul* than any other of tho brotherhood diabolic.??? Tho ghastliest evil of America to-day is drunkenness; the immediate cause of it, tho rum traffic. The two great political parties stand before it dumb. Tho democratic party declares it unconstitutional and un-American to prohibit the evil, and tho republican party is too cowardly to touch West they foie tho German vote. If I never presch again, I will declare the whole counsel of God on this sub- ^Tbe first remark I have to make is that tho evil is not subsiding, not on the standstill but an the forward march. Beginning close by I remarked that I have seen more drunken peo ple In Brooklyn and New York within six weeks thab I have seen in any year of my life time. There is in tbia country more liquor drank and that of a worse kind than since the first distillery began its devastation, where there was one groggery there are five grog- gcries. Where there was one ruined home, thert_arettn demolished. Where, according to government figures there were 23,000,090 gallons of beer sold in 1644), there were 551,- 100,000 gallons sold in 18*3, and the five mil lion gallons of wine have bee* me twenty-five millions. E Moreover,not r ce'that the evil is as tbronghly organized as was every any army, with com- moiider-fn-ehief and staff officers and infantry and cavalry and batteries and advanced guards and standards. And every man who here of er runs for office will be compelled to commit himself either as the friend or foe of the liquor traffic. I h- Id fn my hand a circular of a brewers as- ???ociat on which has been sent or will be sent to every candidate for office. Ail the present mminees for the presidency and vice preri- dency have already received it. Its first reso lution reads as follows: ???Resolved that, as members of a craft which In all enlighted countries is considered a need- fill and beneficial branch of industry and one which contributes to the force and vigor of mankind by producing a cheering ant nourishing drink food,we recognize the digni ty and usefulness of our calling and sre de sirous of confirming it still more in the good esteem of the intelligent, the wise and tho hu- In this circular the candidate fir office is called npon to fill a blank declaring himself friendly to the liquor traffic. 1 f he do not fill it a right and sign it, he is he is doomed so fir is the brewers association can doom him, and if he do not return the circular tho silence is taken for a negative. Tho evil of the time advances and the fifteen million church members in America will have to tnke sides in this conflict. It i) going to be an out and out battle between rum and so briety, between heaven and holi, between God and the devil. Better take sides beforo wo have any further natioual decadence. Better take sides before your own sous are sacrificed or your daughter???s new home goes down under the alcoholism of an embruted husband. Bet ter toke bides while your voice and your vole and your pen may render au effectual service. The way tho fifeeen million male aud female members of the American church conclude to throw their influence will dbeido our national defctiny. But reformers in both political parties say: ???In national elections we only throw our vote away if wc by that vote express our particular sentiments on thet subject of inebriation.??? My reply is that no man ever throws his vote away if ho vote aright, for every conscientious vote is not only au expression of opinion" but a prayer to God, and tho Lord makes record of it and will answer it in time to come. Massing Hie separate snowflakes of individual suffrage into an avalanche enough. to crush all the allied powers of darkness. Besides thatyoyr vote is for 1888 or 1802 and will not aff&fc No vember, 1884, for this year the election wijl be swept by n majority such as lias not'teeu seen since tho year when American politics sac rificed on its cruel altar mypersonal frieud aud grandest of American citizens, Horace Greeley. In speaking as I said I would in this brief coorse of Sabbath morning serpions about tile wiings that threaten the destruction of Ameri can institutions, could I compass tho subject without speaking of drunkenness? Is it a stato evil or a national evil. Does it belong to the cast or to the west, to tho north or to the south? Alas, met Thoro is not a river of America in which its tears do not flow and its suicides havo not plunged. What ruined thatsoutheru plantation, once its every field a fortune, tho proprietor and his family a few years ago the most all!uent guests of summer watering places? What sent into decay that New England farm, the roseate cheeks .that bloomed at tho foot of the green mountain) twined into tho pallor of a drudgo? What hath smitten every street of every town aud city of this continent with moral pestilence? What will on tho first Tuesday in November in every state in the uuiou send thousands of men to the ballot box maudlin and incompetent and filthy and blasphemous? Strong drink. To provo that the evil is national, I call up Maine of the north, Iowa of the west an l Georgia of the south. ???Yes,??? says Maine, ???it is so much of an evil wc have as a state ana thematised it.??? ???Yes,??? says Iowa, ???wo have by constitutional amendment forbidden it.' ???Yes,??? says Georgia, ???wo have in ninety cotta tics of our state made the sale of it a criminal ity.??? How many in all parts of the land are wait- ir g to see if something is going to be douo for their relief? First of all tens of thousands of drunkards who cannot walk ten minutes iu any direction in our cities without having tho temptation glaring beforo thoir eyes or ap pealing to their nostrils And they fighting against it with enfeebled will und diseased appetite, first conquering and thou surrender ing, conquering again, and surrendering again, crying: ???How long O Lord, how long beforo these infernal solicitations shall be re moved???? Mothers are waiting to see if some thing can bo done; their boys once with hon est breath, that breath now always disguised, their eyes once clear, now filthy or bloodshot, the good hour* thoy kept exchanged for a rat tling of the night key long after tho city watchman has gone by to see that ovorything is safely locked up. And tho high expectation that the son would do something ns artisan or merchant or professional man and would be on honor to tho family namo long after the mother???s wrinkled hands had been foldod from her last toil???this expectation exchanged for a startled look at night when tho door-belt rugs lest something has happened, and tho wish that the scarlet fever of twouty years ago had been fatal, for then he wodid have gone safoly to tho Savior's arms. But pojr old soul, she is left to see the truth of what Solomon said: ???A foolish son is the heaviness of his mother. 1 ???What a funeral it will make when that boy is carried homo dead I Sbo will say: ???is this the boy 1 used to fondle and sing to all ??? ;ht long when ho was sick? Is this the boy _ eld to the altar of baptism? Is this tho boy for whom I toiled till the blood carno out of the tips of my fingers that ho might havo a good starting aud a home? Lord, why host thou kept me alive to see this? Surely those swollen hands ure not tho hands that used to wander over my face whiio I rocked him to sleep: surely that bloated brow is not tho ono that I so rapturously kissed. Poor boy! llow- tired he looks I I wonder who struck him there on the temples. I wonder if ho uttered a dying prayer. Wake up, my son! Can???t you bear me? No! no! Dead I dead I dead!??? ???O Absalom, my son, my son, would to God I had died for theet O Abaaloui, my son, my son!??? I am not enough of a mathematician to es timutc, is anyjiody hero quick enough with figures to tell how many such mothers uro waiting for something to bo dono for their relief? How many wives are waiting for domestic rescue? Ho promised something better than this when after long acquaintance and careful scrutiny of character tho hand and heart bad boon offered and accepted. hat a hell on earth it is for a woman who has a drunken husband I How lovely art thou, O death, and how soft and warm thy skeleton hand if than wouldst only coma for her! Tho sepulchre on a winter???s midnight is a king???s drawing-room compared with what now she fuflora. The blow on her head does not hurt to much as the blow on licr heart. Tho ruma-fiend opened tho door of that onco beau tiful home ????id said: ???I curse this dwelling with unrcltnting curse. I curse that husband into a maniiic. I curse that wife into a pau per. 1 curse those sons into vagabond??. 1 curse those daughters into profligacy. Cursed be Ireud-truy andcradlo and chair and couch and family Bible with Us records of marriage and Lirtb. Curse upon curse, curse upoa curie!??? How many wi ves aro waiting to aeo if something cun not ho dono to shake tho frosts of this second death oil tho orange blos soms? Yea, God is waiting, tho God who worked through human instrumentalities, and who gives every notion an opportunity, and if it is not improved, Jfe wipea it out of existence and jets another nation try. God is also writing for the church, aud if it does not do its work, He will wipe out tbo church as he did tho church of Ephesus, the church of Thyatira, tho church of Bard is. The Protestant and Roman Catholic churches to-day stand impo tent before this great evil of intemperance. Why ? Because men love their partisanships *??? '* love their God. They would more than they rather have tho democratic or republic ty in autbhority at Washington than have drunkenness thrust off the doorsteps of this nation. It seems they dare not move though "God shows a clear path to victory over the mightiest evil of all the ages. What is the state of things this hour? We have an evil that costs the cation more than a biition dol lars a vear, to support 350,000 criminals, 30,- or.o idiots, M0,000 paupers and hury 75,On.) drunkard*. Protngovss hoisted that of bis 00 years of life he had spent HO In d:*priling yc utb. The arch-fiend of the nations, Alco hol, cr.u boast that all his year* have been spent in that way without any exception. Now, wbBt is being dono to confront this evil? Take a lighted caudle and put on your most powerful spectacle* end look through the two great political platforms and find one word, if you can, deploring this evil. Some thing against Mormonism. Oh, yc% it is sxfr to cencuncc that organized nastiness 2,00) miles away. But not one word against drunk enness, which if it go on will turn this whole nation into a besstialfialt Lake City. Resolu tions rgainst political corruptions. Ota, yes; but nothing against drunkenness which, uu- arrested, will rot the nation from scalp to heel. Resolutions shout protection, against foreign competition, but not one word about protection ot families and churches aud na tions against the evil which puts a scalding. Hasting, all-consuming, damning tariff on all individual, financial, moral, religion), notion* s! interests. The democratic party w-*re in rower meet of the time, for .fifty years. What did they do at a party to acre it thi* evil? Nothing, absolutely nothing, appall ingly nothing. The republican party has been in power nearly a quarter of a century. What have they dono to arrest" this evil? Nothing, absolutely nothing, appallingly nothing. I look in one moro direction. Tho church is tho mightiest, most magnificent organiza tion ever known. Has it moved iu solid phalanx on this subject? No. Not long ago at a meeting of one of tho great ecclesiastical bodies resolutions were offered, demanding the arrest of this evil and some ministers with wine in their cellars aud on their tables de feated it by threatening speeches. They did not want to give up their own tusto. To day??? mark you, not in tho milennium but to-< lay- tho church of God holds the balance of pow er and could extirpate this evil if it would march solidly to the front. Over three hun dred thousand churches and Sunday schools in Christendom. What might thoy not do if they would march shoulder to shoul der for God und sobriety? And that day of gospel consoldation is corn ing. Before another four years have passed the best men of ull parties will be organised for such a campaign os has never struck the earth. You cftunot tellfrom small beginnings what wi|l be tho grandest of results. The Christian church, which aliall yet conquer all nations was born in n cattle stall of flethlo- hem. Jesus Christ after n hundred years his name had been preached, had not half us many followers iu ull tho earth as this prosout temperauco movement, Meu and women of America, courageously do your duty. Go from your knees to tho ballot box. Ask God how you shall vote and then obey, him. f?omo of the clergy of America and somo ol the religious newspapers havo this summer end autumn made pitiable spectacles of them selves by announcing themselves on this fide, nowon that, not remembering tho fact that there is but one issue in this campaign??? shall the grog-shops of America rule or shall Christian sobriety? Never iu a national election has such variety of choice been put fero the people ns this auutumn. You can have almost nuy kind of virtue and almost any kind of sin. As for myself I shall look over the whole field and if I can???t fiud what I want in character in any more recent time, I will vote for Paul, the chief Apostle of the Gentiles. But it I can find among the nominees n man who has held high public trust and not a farthing of other peopio???s mon ey has stuck to his fingers, a poor man though he might have stolen hundreds of thousands, and who has always had respect for woman hood, and been clean, and who is a sworn and open and out and out antagonist of alcohol ism, the rfrch-fiend of tho centuries, thongh I am in a minority of ono, so help me God and 1 will vote for that man. Young men of America, pass over into the ranks of tcctotalisin. Let whisky good for preserving corpses, never turn you into a corpse. Tens of thousands of voting men have been dragged to ruin by tho devilish stuff. Don???t you touch it. On tho front door of this church summer before lost occurred this scene: A young man corning in here to relig ious service. ilisfriond, passsing along the street, mid: ???Joe, comn along with mo to Co ney Island and spend Sunday.??? ???No,??? said the young man, ???1 am going in hero to ser vice.??? ???Oh, pshaw,??? said tho other, ???come with me. The day is, bright and we shall have a glorious Sunday at Coney Island. ???Joe turned back and the twain spent tho day at the beach, drinking and carousing. In the evening, upon tho Brighton train, Joo in his intoxication fell ofl' the train aud was crushed. The train stopped. As Joo was ly ing upon tbo grass and tncy were holding the lantern over him he said to his friend: ???1 am dying. J want you tell tho boys when you soo them, to-morrow, that rum ami Sabbath- breaking did this, and John, whiio you are telling them, I will bo in hell aud it is your fault.??? Is It not tiino for mo to pull out from this great organ of God???s word with many banks ol keys that stop trouble: ???Look not upon tho wiuo when it is red, when it giveth his color in fho cup, when it moveth itself aright.
