• \ WKXIOUADUC MGU'.:. i'jio I‘ursonlTold tlu> Congregation !u a rural district of Georgia. vt hose inhabitants think more aiicil linrir poultry than iheir pi et\. 1 found myself, one star lit nielli, the guest of a quiet house hold, aninuded al thi,-: time !.•; two vihii.jug young ladies from Ala bantu. Modesty and a natural wor shipful fooling toward the sex for bid my saying that those sun-kiss ed maidens were freckled-faced, pug-uesed, r unable to spell‘hat,’ although this coulu bo proved in any justice’s court. 1 had simmered nay conversation down to monosylables—and this wat- by no means difficult—and was smoothly discoursing on the rela tion of an owl to wisdom, when the violent ringing of a neighbor tig church bell announced—not lire as I supposed—but that a good brother of Primitive persuasion would edify the people by proof positive that what is to be will lit. even if Gabriel’s trumpet launches time into eternity a million years before it happens. Ia having to escort these little it:non Hits over to hear this process of lung development, I was like •Jit man wilh Ihe elephant in not knowing hosvf o manage my charge, but very unlike that relic of some fellow's wit in Ihsl my task was uoi courted, but compulsory. Having discussed for half an hour ‘ the blue tangled wild wood" which begin our path and it®? rela tion to love and moonshine, we ar- rive at. the consecrated spot where ■•Inoil nature's sweet restorer, bal mv sleep,” was to be exerted in al! of its midnight serenity. The house was crowded, the lamps shining brightly with washed chimneys, lit up the dusty ceiling, frescoed with the mazy webs of tlie industrious spider. The wild September wind whis tled cheerily through the mud chinked walls; the faithful watch dogs of fanciful masters zealously guarded the portals, and all save the pro verbal church baby lent en couragement to the scene. The hymn that followed the open ing prayer was being sung to the time of a werd-a-miuute as we en tered and eagerly looked for a pew in the .row of fashion. Unsuccess ful, we wended our way, with diffi culty. to the deacon's comer, where we were sat el y ensconced after hav ing made an apology as long as you can recoiled for unwittingly touch ing the pet corn ol a choleric gen tle man in calico pantaloons. As all things are destined te end. ilie hymn was finished. Then a venerable old mao with alpaca co.ti and sleek velvet trou ser? which had defied the violence of a thousand storms, advanced to a stand v _ eh had ills appearance of an cm lash toned rabbit placed o: ; pedestal and received Iho sacred i -mo of pulpit. The i Arson wore neither vesf, cravat nor co mr, bn! to * fire ol hjs eyes, the curl of his bp, his re g n.rizxled ben: s <"J firm set m .‘Uth. itokened.. an earnestness which dial.i'll vd res;ami. Announcing his text from the 15th chap lor ol Isaiah, ho coin mu need his sermon with trio evi dent intention of- P-ausling <w< r.v lhome in tho Bible, r.o: coniaiiiv l iii the passum' read. Beginning with a voice as low and measured 11l beacii bealinu waves, his .tune grew louder and still louder, until the thunders of binai would have scorned Jiko. the faint echoes of a squirrel's bark, when compared foil, lie viewing the history of the children of Israel wii,h technical ac curacy, he gave numberless reasons why their selection as the chosen people war. purely arbitrary. Ha showed that infants are condemn ed to eternal punishment by the sin cf Adam, bui are sometimes saved by faith—not their own, but the fait!; of Christ, of which they know nothing. Hu then proved that the plan of redemption includes a favored few. while the countless many are for bidden to complain of being dooru ed to ruiss eternitA r in a brimstone w *• lake in accordance with aseheme preconcerted before ‘lie morning stars sang together. He declared that education increases crime, that, free liquor tends to morality, that refinement, inculcates to vice, that it is more important t® wash each other’s feet than to give bread to the starving. lie contended that millions who spend their throe score years seek ing an entrance at Heaven’s gate, will be at last compelled to <ji as ii their gums, to weep anu wail in biirnin’ lako, While darn’d devils war and yell, Chlined to a stake, While a few moth-eaten, con scienceless souls, will be 'washed, against their will, in the blood of tile Lamb, dragged, as it were, by a self-acting seine from the lag goons of humanity, made as pdre as “fresh blown roses dipped in dew,” and stationed at the right ; hand of the immaculate Saviour to bask forever in the glory of His presence, With ihe volume of an hundred; muskets and the monotony of as j many saw mills, that stentorian i voice placed its emphasis at regu- j lar intervals, without regard to sense, sound or construction of sen tence. Ithadali the discord of a Chicago on fire, with none of its sublimity; and added to this was the most violent action ever seen outside ot an amphitheater. lla 1 this pale cheeked martyr ot anti nr.afttd opinion been fighting tiger* in African jungle, he could not have moved hia arms more energet ically. AVitk head thrown back, knee slightly bent, leiL hand on his hip and right hand-winginglike a bra en-hinged gale, .towprds the four winds, he seemed a perfect piclnre 0/ thunderbolt hurling Jove after a ({iiarrsi with seif-willed Juno.
