DR. TALMAOE'S DISCOURSE

Vkankice God Because it is Not Any Worse-Tlie
Country Buffering from- Over Production???
The'Remedy to b* Found Throaoh "the
Gat** of the South." Etc.
B*ooki.tx, November 30.???[Bp??inl.]???At
the anneal Thanksgiving services at tho
Brooklyn tabernacle, the church was pro
fusely decorated with corn from tho west,,
sugar, cane from Louisiana, wheat from the
north and cotton from Georgia. The opening
hymn was:
???Hark, the sound ot jubilee
Loud as mighty thunder's roar."
The subject of tho sermon by Dr. Talmago
was ???Thanksgiving day, 18SJ.??? Tho tost,
were; Ezekiel xli. 11, ???Another door toward
the south of Bevelatlon;??? xzi, 13, ???On the
south-three gates.??? Dr. Talmago said:
???King Geofge, of L'ngland, nt' the close ol
the Bevolntionnry war, in which he hod lost
tho thirteen colonies, set apart a day for
- national thanksgiving, because of tho return
of peace. A chaplain of the king asked him,
???Are you going to return thanks for tho loss of
the thirteen brightest jowcls of your crown????
???No; not fof that,??? answerod the king. ???Be-
caueo so many millions havo boon added to
the national debt?" ???So; not for that,???
answered the king. ???Because so many thou
sands have' been slain, though -belonging to
the same race and religion???? ???No; not for
that,??? answered the king. ???For what, then,???
insisted the chaplain, ???does your majesty
???want us to give thanks???? ???Thank God,???
vehemently cried the king, ???thank God it is
not any worsor* And if tho yoar now past has
brought to any of you misfortune or calamity
or bereavemont you have so many mercies
left that yon ought to thank God that things
are no worse with you than they are.
Bat to vast throngs of ns it has boon a year
of everlasting mercy, and as individuals, as a
church, as a nation wo kcop jubilee, and would
to God that our habit of gratltudo might be
come as fixed as that of St. Felix, the monk
of Cantallce, who on nil occasions, whether
stepping a light or soliciting alms for tho
sftn&atory. cried out, ???Deo gratiss,??? (thanks
he to God), until tho church called him
Brother Deo Gratias, and tho children hailed
him along the street as Father Deo Gratias.
Alter a year In which other nations havo lolt
the scourgo of epidemic, but this land has
been spared, alter emerging unhart bom a
presidential contest in which tho blind Samson
of partisanship threatened to null down tho
pillars of state and to leave the temple fiat In
the dust, and after 333 more days of kindness
froth our God we aro here. In tho gracoful
and splendid decoration of tliia church to-day,
with the grain and buita ot all soctions, wo have

Here are delegations with white hair from the

Havo in their round chocks the blush of tho

upon ail their predecessors. So the wave of
temporal blessings has dasncd to tho top of
tho tuition's corn bln. ??? ???
Ayo, tho prosperity of this nation has rolled
up until tho crest of the wave has broken and
recoiled upon itself. Koro corn and* wheat
and-cotton and rice than wo can find profit
able market Ibr. Mora tnannfhcitircd goods
than wo can diipoio of. The grain marketa
arc glottal and the factories by tho hundred*
stopped or run with only half tho spindles
harnessed and wages are ent down because tho
supply has'swamped tho demand. Nothing
is the matter to-day with this country but
over-production and under-consnmption.
When thero is "work for ten there ere twenty
who offer their services, and tho hundred
thousand wheels of American Industry are
slowing up not becauso there is too little but
because thero is too much. God has snowed
upon the track of the nation such vast a6cu-
mulation of prosperity that tho englao which
drswethc train cannot plough any turther
through. Tho American nation is being
choked jo death with" surplus of production
and mnntiftcturos. Too much wheat, too
much corn, too much cotton, too much fruit,
too much coal and iron, too much hardware,
too many dry goods, too many shoe#, too many
carpets, too many philosophical instramsnts,
too many cattle, too many sheep, too many
artisans, too many merchants, too many law
yers, too many doctors and bom the largo
numbers of excellent men in my own profess,
ion without settlements samo might think too
inony ministers.
Tho dclugo of supply rises 13 cubits high
above tho mountains of demand. Tho loti of
national wealth it greater than the team can
draw. Tho man who diet for lack of a crust
of bread Is no worse off than the man wboia
smothered to death in a wheat bin. The
nation suffers to-day not of marasmus but of
plethores, not from consumption but from
apoplexy. What shall we do. Let us ruth
right down to Washington and havo the tariff
changed, say a multitude. But put up the
tariff os high os the tip-top bouse of Mount
Washington and whilo you might koep out
foreign goods, we have enough mills of our
own loft to weave ten lltnnel shirts where
there is only ono back to wear them, and tea
pair of sheet for every two feet that needs
them and twenty curtains for every window
that could support them and twenty pair of
070 glasses for ell the visions that conid be
reinforced by them and twenty ear trumpets
for nil that could hear through them. Boctor
the tariff with homeopathic or allopathic or
eclectic dose from now until the Thanksgiving
Day of the year 3,MO and you cannot in that
way cure this chronic national malady.
Others hope by change of national adminis
tration to correct tho trouble. No president,
though he combined the patriotism of a Wash
ington and the brotfd views of a Jeff erson and
the suavity of Madison and the courage of an
Andrew Jackson and the old-fashioued hon
esty ot anAbrahsm Lincoln, could regulate
the inexorable law of supply and derannd.
???Well,??? tome sav. ???Ictus pack our trunks and
move east or north or west.??? Going east to
ward Europe would be exodus into starvation.
The avalanche of population from Europe
astern us that that country it already over-
crowded. We all know that Ibis is the best
country to live in.- I have eight hundred end
fifty tboxeuid new reasons for saying to???
eight hundred and fifty thouiend people com-
ing in one year from the other side the tea to
ear country. If tbit had not been the best
country tolive in there would have been 850,009
Americans going to the other tide the Atlantic.
Ehtll we go north? Already the busiest lives
oi competition ore along the fit. Lawrence end
the Androscoggin and the Penobscot and the
woods of Maine and the waters of tho Lake
chain answer ???no room here.???
rihail we go west? There Is no west. The
emigrantscheted it across the Ohio, across the
Missiasipi i, serosa the La PUUe^na Fremont's
lUeky mountains to the Sierra Nevada. while
the foriy-niscra from California, lulling from
their ship* on the pacific beach, took the west
in the rear. And the workmen of the Union
Pacific end Northern I'cciii: and -Ecuthcm
Pacific coxae-upon it with their Sfrdoi, ami
the gixrt west fcte coated. And though many
might suppose that it might be said of it as of
Moses: ???No man knoweth ol his repule'
this day,??? I think that the Votomltei .. ,
is its sarcophagus with El Capitan for the head
stone and Cathedra] rock at tho foot. The
millions oi foreign population that are yet to
cross tho sea for Amerira will soon fill all tho
eras between tho Atlantic and tho Pacino
vO iches.
But in the words of my text I new declare
???another door toward tho south,??? and when I
say south, I do not mean the southern states of
the nation, but I mean a magnificent infinity
of opportunity beyond, Fortugucso America,
the fifteen Spanish-Americsn republics tad
the islands ortho south Pacific, Through that
door will come the complete and glorious re
lief for all this ovor-snpply. It will come
within ten years, within five, within three.
On the 13th of next month at the New Orleans
exposition, that door will begin to swingopen.
And if tho government of the United States
fully appreciate the opportunity and the peo
ple will help, the highest water mark that the
wore of our national prosperity has ovor
reached will be a hundred feet under what
shall speedily be the full tide of commercial,
agricultural, manufacturing, literature and
moral success. In the name of God I proclaim
revolution. Not by sword ordynamlto or nitre-
glycerins or giant powder, but by plough end
saw and yardstick and factory bands nail now
lines of steamers and whole nations rising up
to greet our nation in commercial amity. Our
people for the most part sit in appalling ignor
ance of an opportunity such as was never
spread out before any nation since the morn
ing stars sang togothcr. ???On the south, three
S tes,??? yen, three tl * ??? '
em wide open.
I have hod feels put beforo me, enough to
keep a man awake night# because oftheir
startling significance and statisics to loaded
with meaning that they move with the tplen-
dor and power of the iron Dako???s army at
Walorloo??? Scotch Greys and the Lite Guards
and Pick???s infantry and battalions of Ponton-
by and Hyland, and the Datch Belgians, and
Highlanders sounding their bagpipes. Ayet
Ayet It is a bloodless Waterloo wnfeh will do-
eido the commercial destiny of North and South
America. The simple fact is that the vast
realms of population in the tropics are buying
from trana-Atlantic nations almost everything
and from us almost nothing, and the (Ido
ought to turn, and tho tide will turn, and I
preach this tormon to help it turn. Your ears
will tingle with tho Intensity of this rocital.
In 1B80 five billion and threo hundred and
sixty-nine million dollars worth of goods man
ufactured in the United States and only two
per cent taken by foreign companies. It is a
marvel that American manufactories aro not
- at dead as the proverbial door-nail.
My only wonder is that nine-tenths of the
manufactories have not gone into bankruptcy
and ninoty-uino one-hundredths of tho faotory
hands gone into starvation ortho alms house;
and it will be worso if tbo battle is to go on
between Lowell spindles here and Munches*
ter spindles there???between foreign merchants
who want t&rlflk down, and American mcr-
chonts who want tariffs up. There is no ro
ller for us in the markets of Europe, and will
be nono till moons shall wax and wane 110
more. "Another door toward tho south. On
the south three gates:??? This nation to-day it
like a silly dry goods merchant' who stands
behind the counter haggling with a small cus
tomer about three yards ot tape, when there
are at tho counter, impatiently waiting, three
princesses wishing to purchase thoir bridal
trousseaux. May God route this nation from
its commercial idiocy I
On theaeuth of us are regions nearly (hree
limes nt large os the United States, whleh aro
without manufactures, without woolen goods;
without agricultural implements, without
telegraphs, without telephones, without shoos,
without sowing machines, without ten thou
sand things that wo have and they mutt havo.
Where shall they gotlhctn? They ore getting
them from threo thousand miles away, and
wc at tho next doer from them are baried un
der n surplus of theso very things. Thoy are
able to trade with- us for their sugars and
coffees end spices and fruits and valuable
woods wc need as much as they need our pro.-
ducts. But look and then hang yoifr heads at
tbo statemont that svhila our next door neigh
bors, the southern republics and Brazil and
nelghborlngcoluntcs import $475,000,000 worth
of goods la a year, only $120,000,01)0 aro from
the United States. Only one-fifth of tho trado
is ours???European nations taking tho four fin
gers and leaving us tho poor thumb. Tho
sister republics on tho American continent
hnve a foreign commerce amounting to $428,-
000,000, of which we havo only the feobie
and paltry sum of $03,000,000. There It noth
ing but a comparative ferry between this
country and tbo West Indies, whilo there are
raging teas ol long voytgos between them and
other continents. Yet they Import $110,000,-
000 worth of goods a year, and only $31,000, -
000 come from us.
Now, all this is going to bespeedily changed,
and the change is going to be tbo solution of
the labor question, and the bread'question,
and the eommnnlst question, and the over-
production-under-consumption question,' and
almost every other question. It It going to
set all the mills an the Merrimtc, and the
Conneeticnt, and the Snsqnehanns, and the
Chattahoochee running day and night with
double seta of handt, ond calling for ten fac
tories whero wa have one factory, and patting
all tho men who aro now out of employment
??? 1 to change tUii
rosperity which
the Muslislppi
loses its way to tbo Gulf of Mexico. Iam no
more thankful for the past blessings of this
country than I am thankfiil for thii opening
opportunity in its height stupendous and in
its width hemispheric.
How will it be done? Among other things,
by sach action as that which led our eongrssi
to appropriate $1,300,000 to the Now Orleans
exposition,'Mexico giving $200,000 and Now
Orleans $300,000. That exposition, though
preceded by the Sydenham Crystal palace,
and the French, and the Vienna, and the
Philadelphia expetitions, will be, fn far-
reaching significance, more important than
all of themjput together. They showed chief
ly what badr been done. This exjioattlon of
next month will build a platform on which
the nations of the American continent shall
some lor introduction to a new commercial
epoch in the history of the ages. On that
platform will come up Bolivia, Peru, Para
guay .Uruguay, VenecueU, Salvador, Nicara
gua, Colombia, Cotta Blca, Ecuador, Brazil
and the brunette Vest Indies to meet the
blonde tnd smiling United States. Hail mar
riage day of north and south I While the pessi
mists have bun hunting up the burial service
to read at the death 01 American commreco
were being pulled
ous 1 r use ueia mnrea m Saul, I, an opti
mist by nature and by grace, take up In an
ticipation the bright covered wedding service,
tnd as the blende north takes the brunette
south by the hand, saying: ???With ell my
worldly goods I thee endow,??? I cry ???whom
God bath joined together, let not foreign des
potism or American demagogcry ever put
asunder. Than let til the organ and choirs
and ercbestna make everything from the
Montreal fee palace to the belle ol the Monte-
zumet quake un-ler the rolling thunders of
the grand march of North and South Araeri*
can progress.
This southern doer will be fastened open the
more firmly by the tldee of travel diverted
from Europe to the laud of the Aides. Much
of the one hundred end six million dolien
yearly expended by American in Europe will
be expended in loutbern exploration, in look
ing ettome of the mine of the forty-seven
cities that Stevens, the traveler, found a 11UI0
way apart, tnd walking through fbe eomdora
and under the arches and in the great door
ways and over the miracles of Mosaie and
alonj *- ??? - ??????*???

Sg by the monumental glaries of another
civilization, tnd ancient America will, with
cold iipe or Stone, kite the warm lipa of modem
America, and to have teen the Andeeen-1 the
Popocatepetl will be deemedae importantn to
have teen the Pjrenr nn and Balkan range#.
So there will be fewer people spoilt by foreign
travel end in our midst lees poor imitation of
the French shrug and thaintentfonal hesitancy
of the brainless swell. The feet is that there
are mere people made foole of by KeropjM
travel than any other, and though sensible
when they embark they return with a collar
tod a cravat and a shoe and a coat and a pro-
nuneiatlsn and c eentec.pt for American iu-
ttitutiers, and a berd of the elbow that make
one believe in evolntion backward from man
to ape. Ol tho thirty thousand Americans
who now cross tho ara annually there will bo
thousands who on pleasure and business visit
the tropics, and at tourist and merchant and
socialist and capitalist will all help in this
national development.
I wiah that somehow our next congress
might take the $100,400,000 of surplus iu tho
United State* treasury which the republicans
did not stsal, and before the democrats get a
chance to steal It, and in aorao way expend it
in establishing new lines ot shipping between
tbo ports of Forth and South America, and in
dredging their harbors, and in building tele
graphic wires, tnd in quickening all that
g lorious consummation which is sure to come.
o on, gentlemen, discussing your bightariS
and low tarifl and horizontal tariff and uo
tariff at all, until the question is r.s malodorous

fishermen throw on tho fioldi to enrich the

pare for the rescue of tho millions of hard
workingmen end women of this country, who
have been hungry and cold long onongh, and
this door of tho aonth open, is going to turn
on them a summer of bright warm prosperity.
In anticipation I nail on tho front uoor 01
