PULPIT-THOUGHTS. Extracts From the Sermons of leading New York Ministers. Owing tn the absence of Rev. Dr. Talmage , run , bis pulpit in the Brooklyn Tabernacle do not give his customary sermon in this ssur, but print in li 'U thereof extracts from he sermons of prominent metropolitan min sters: ;:eBEU NEWTON ON TRUE IDKAS OF GOD. The Rev. R. Heber Newton, preached at A'l Souls' Church, in West Forty-eighth .’ "The Scientific Idea of God and the o,,ritual Vision of a Heavenly Father” wai n- Then e “It seems to me,” said Mr. New ‘ ' "that a true idea of God ought to . able to verify itself in the general o s iousness of man. This is the conclusion rhich science reaches as Mr. Abbott inter- ‘ tt her thought. 'Because, as an infinite .reanisni it thus manifests infinite wisdom, ■ower and goodness, or thought, feeling.and vdl m their infinite fullness, and because hesc three constitute the essential mauifesta ous of personality, it must be conceived as nfluite person, absolute spirit, creative iiurce, and eternal home of the derivitive n e p.-is ma'ities whi h depend upon it. but ire no less real than itself. * * * What .th but infinite beatitude, infinite benign tv. infinite love —the all onibracing father ibod and motherhood of God.’ •Let me tell you how, in a very simple a h on. I reach this bles-ed assurance. From he un ty of nature it follows that all forms liein" are ; artial manifestations of this in to.- and eternal eneigy. That which is es .ntially human is undoubtedly what we, for a, k of a better term, call personality—intel igenoe conscious of itself, free in the power >f will, owning the moral law. If we do not Ind personality in the cry stal and the beetle, md but, a dreamlike personality in the dog, md if we do find such personality in man, which fact are we to trust as the better ex pression of the infinite and eternal energy that, is in us all ? The answer of evolution to this question is unmistakable. The higher forms of life must more truly express thejnature of the infinite and eternal energy than the lower forms can pos sibly do. Over a muddy creek a willow hangs and tries to image its soft flowing lines in the waters below, how vainly! Above the clear crystal water of the mountain tarn, ‘the sacred pine’ stoops and sees its noble form faithfully mirrored in the lake. Each finer organism is capable of reflecting a finer image of the face which broods over ns, seek ing to mirror itself. Man is the mystic flower of the great tree Igdrasil. I must interpret the dim, shadowy outline of the Infinite Power which these lower forms trace for me by the clearer, nobler form which comes forth in my consciousness. My consciousness yields as the essential human fact the idea of personality. lam a man inasmuch as I am an intelligence conscious of itself, free in the power of will, owning the moral law. I am obliged then to look up into the face which bends down over life seeking to mirror itself, and trust the reflection which comes forth in my nature of the personal power whom I must call Father. The Divine Being is not less than personal, however, much more than personal He may be. He cannot be uncon scious, since unconsciousness in nature is the lower form of being which opens into con sciousness. He cannot be unmoral, since nature, as it strains toward man, passes out of the calm indilTerentism of the brute into a hungering and thirsting after righteousness. God cannot be heartless, since the very mea sure of man lies in the heart. "Because of what I am, as a man, I am obliged to think of God not lees than man but only more than man, not subhuman but superhuman, essentially humanity, lifted higher and breathed out to larger form. Evo lution goes on in humanity. Climb now to the very topmost crest of humanity, the supremely good one of earth. What mons trous freak of madness could equal a creation capable, through slow, orderly progressive development, of unfolding such a human flower as Jesus of Nazareth without having, below this climbing growth, a life in which it roots, infinite and eternal, the source and spring, the type and pattern, of this flower of nature! We overheard the soliloquies of his soul telling the vision mirrored in the calm, clear waters of his soul, as the sun’s face is caught and held in the blue mountain lake. Over the face of Jesus, th l face that bends ami broods, is a greater human face—One in whose image he saw himself to be made. Renan confesses: ‘The highest con- sciousness of God which ever existed in the breast of humanity was that of Jesus.’ This granted, the con sciousness of Jesus becomes thesuprem ■ vord of God, a word in which wo are to trust im plicitly, not as a something wholly apart from our own cons-iounsess, but as the artic ulate utterance of the thought that struggles for expression in ourselves, the clear vision which in the ordinary man is but shadow and cloud. Spinoza declared Jesus to be the temple of God, in which God most fully re veals himself. The revelation of God in Christ is the consciousness of God in Jesus. The blood of the Eternal beats them m our veins.” THINKING THAT LEADS TO UNBELIEF. Dr. White, of the West Twenty-third Street Presbyterian church, took his text from He brew xii, 15-16. He said in part: “Men from intellectual pride sell their birthright by turning away from God and professing to find ag< d among the philosophical idols of the day. The temptation comes in this form: It I wish to prove my intellectual vigor i must, not accept anything upon trust. I must, demand that everything be explained so that its mysteries be cleared up; then I must not accept anything ms true that cannot lie proved by the successive steps of logic or d emonstrated by the exhibition of scientific experiment. The old faith of my fathers is very simple and very comforting, but I must not be misled by any unexplained instincts ol my nature, n >r deluded by any pretended reflation from the unseen world. To be sure thousands of women and children and " , ■ uple-minded men have accepted this tile in Go,l aud Christ without any very l ing intellectual examination, but 1 re quire proof. ' ow. all this is very well if it is the honest ■ mice of a man who truly do-ires to know : uth and who with every fa ulty aw uL. Tied proposes fairly to examine theevi !n es for Christianity; such honest seeker ’i .be aided by God. But. alas! too many possi,<edwith intell ctual vanity while ■ have neither intellectual strength nor -i i llectual honesty. They hear of one and r prominent s -ieuti-t wh >amuses him- ! -: an unbeliever; or, as the expression / ls i "ti agnrsiic. or a positivist, and.it ' "rs their vanity to say that with such we teonr stand.

They ' a’ the idea t hat any new thoughts can '' n ,hem that will support the old faith, assent and ]>ose as unbelievers, ln,i, t!1 , speaks well for their intellectual ■ cadence that they are disciples of this or ‘ ’ “intist.

Many Who s niggle fall b ■cause they have no abiding place. A stone built into a temple is fixed. it is necessary where it is and useless anvwh >re else. Tue day when it was hewn is f'lrgot en. Men and women are coming iu and going out of the temp! ' daily a-king strength from God and then hurrying back into the world to use it for their own selfish en !s but th .‘pillars of the temple remain. Tney came iu to stay, and they go no more | out. There are men who love their country because of the advantages she gives them, and others for her own sake. The latter class are the patriots. Their names go down in history, never to be lost or forgotten. Some study solely for the advantages whi b education will give them, others for the sake, of truth alone. These are enrolled as the great -cholars of the world. So those who serve God for His truth's sake, who strive to fulfil the end for which they were created, they are those who are pillars in His temple, and who go out then -e no more: they must first le hewn out. and fitted tothi-ir places by contact with the world in , the • truggle for life. They often feel the blows of the hammer fitting them to become stones in the temple, shap.sl by toil and suf fering into the likeness of God, perfect and everlasting. And upon the stones of the temple shall be cut three inscriptions, that all may know that it is the temple of God; ‘The name of my God, the name of the city of my God and my new name.’ ” RELIGIOUS LESSONS FROM THE OREGON. The Rev. C. B. Smith, of the St, Janies Protestant Episcopal church: "The ship is the most human work of num and equally the divine work of God. The most hu man b-cause it is so like the human Imdy. But how were its parts so perfectly combined in two ways: by man, who during long centu ries studied the physical laws of the Creator, and by God subtly guiding man. The many overlook the fact that ships ere as distinctly the works of God as trees or rivers or oceans. Man has simply be.-n doing what God planned for him to do. Now, there is something in that sunken Oregon like the generations of the past. Every present generation is brought into its mh -ritance in the arms of the genera tion vanishing. Reformers making it better for ]x>sterity to live, and then as their work is done vanishing. The Son of God in sav ' ing the world leaves the world. But look not only at the dark side but also at the bright side. See Christ’s willingness to do so long as He lived to see the redemption of mankind. Look at the joy of parents as life abbs away if only they see their children nappy. This is the parable of the sinking ship. There is also the parable of the saved traveler. We sail on the sea of life Our bodies are the ships in which our souls are passengers. God brought every one safe to shore from the sinking Oregon. The ship alone was lost. Shall it be so with you, my brother?” THE JUST DEMANDS OF MISSION WORK. The Rev. Dr. J. N. Fitzgerald preached in the Central Methodist Episcopal church on the subject of “Missions.” He said in part: Many jiersons, when asked to contribute to missionary work, consider that their dona tions are to be expended entirely in foreign missions, and say that there is plenty of room for all their donations and labor at home. If that is a candid remark, a fair hearing should be accorded to it; but if it is merely an ex cuse to get out of making a contribution to the work, it should not receive the slightest recognition. This society, in the Methodist church, reaches to all classes of people at home and abroad. In the home mission one may specify towhatparticulardepartmentof ;it he desires his contribution to go. To the Indian, or to the Chinese, that race which has responded to the proverbial saying: “Uncle Sam has room enough to give us all a farm,” have come to this country, and have been tyrannized and brutally treated in a manner the like of which has never occurred before in a civilized country. Others want their contributions to go to helping the work of iai-ing up th" blacks; others to the Ger mans; others to th-i Swede, Swiss or Scandi navian. In all these branches of home and foreign missions this society has workers. But if you cannot decide upon which particu lar department in which you wish to put your money, place it in the general contribution, and a little will be sent to help the worker in all parts of the world. WHAT TRUE LIBERTY IB FOR MEN. Dr. Hall preached in the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church on “True Liberty.” He said: There are various kinds of freedom. We may think of it on the social and politi cal plane, and then we may have freedom from tyranny. Or on the moral plane and we have freedom from bad habits of living. Or on that of spiritual life, and we have deliver ance from sin and from the fear that hath torment. We are citizens of the United States, and it is common to say we are free. But we know that there are forms of bondage that are entirely compatible with our free institutions. We know how a ring may worm itself around a community and put it under bondage. A judge may manage to get himself into a place from which it is difficult to dislodge him.who may be bribed to defend the guilty ana oppress the innocent. If men are slow to acknowl edge such bondages as these, it is not strange that they will not acknowlede their state of moral bondage. It is through Jesus that true liberty comes. There are spurious forms of freedom. A young man throws off the re straints of home life and even of society, and travels over the world with no check upon the indulgin ■ of his tastes and of his lusts. Is he free? Is he not rather a slave to his pas sions? A man makes money getting his ob ject and throws off the straints of honesty. He is not Everything that is good has its counterfeit. Never confound the counterfeit with the reality. We hear a good deal about the region of law. No matter how good you are socially you are in the grip of God’s law. He is infinitely just, and if you are not ¥ enitent. His law of death will be enforced. he spirit of life in Christ Jesus can make you free from the law of sin and death. A Last Will. When I was a boy I heard of a lawyer who was called up in the middle of a winter’s night to draw out the will of an old farmer who lived some three miles away, and who was dying. The messenger had brought a cart to convey the lawyer to the farm, and the latier in due time arrived at his destination. When he entered the house, he was immediately ushered into the sick room, and he then requested to be supplied with pen, ink and paper. There were none in the house ! The lawyer hail not brought any himself, and what was he to do? Any lead pencil? he inquired. No : they had none. The farmer was sinking fast, although quite conscious. At last the legal gentleman saw chalked up on the back of the bedroom door column upon column of figures in chalk. These were milk “scores” or “shots.” He immediately asked for a piece of chalk,, and then kneeling on the floor, he wrote out concisely upon the smooth hearthstone the last will and testament of the dying man. The farmer subse quently died. The hearthstone will was sent to the principal registry in London with special affidavits, and was duly proved, the will being deposited in the archives of the registry. I may mention that the law does not state upon what substance or with what instrument a will must be written.— All the Year Round. Men in high places are getting to be dreadfully reckless. Senator Van Wyke not only wears paper collars but glories in the fact. SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS. Prof. Baird says that a fair estimate of the annual product of the American fish eries would not fall short of one million dollars. Hatching fish artificially has com menced at the establishment of the National Fish Culture Association, South Kensington, near London. From his studies of the Krakatoa catastrophe Verbeek is led to maintain I that part of our globe remains still in a molten state, and he disputes the theory which has been advanced that the heat of the volcanic furnaces is entirely due to local chemical action. Dr. C. E. Saunders states that as no outbreak of cholera has been known to occur in a aew locality in less time than it would take a man to travel the dis tance from the nearest place where the disease already existed, it is pretty con clusive that human agencies rather than climatic causes are responsible for the spread of the disease. Successful experiments have been made in joining and restoring the functions of divided nerves, even nerves of different function being used to replace those partially destroyed. It is thought that even sight and hearing may be restored, after injury to the nerves on which they depend, by bringing other nerves into service by artificial union. An Irish physician, Dr. Henry Ma caulay, has made the unique suggestion that the intense heat of the sun in tropical countries be used as an agent for cooling buildings. He would use Mulchot’s sun engine for pumping cold air into factories, dwellings, etc., as in this way the temperature of the rooms may be reduced from 100 degrees to 60 degrees. This plan is available only where ice may be obtained. M. Ballaud asserts that flour kept in sacks for two or three years is unwhole some, because alkaloids are formed in consequence of the acidity of the old flour during the transformation of gluten under the influence of the natural ferment of wheat. When such flour is treated with ether and the product evaporated on a sand bath, there is found a fatty matter which has an acid reaction, ex hales a disagreeable odor and has an acrid taste. To determine how far off the moon actually appears from the eye the late Mons. Plateau devised an ingenious ex periment, which may be repeated by any person. Looking steadily at the full moon a few moments, he turned suddenly round toward a wall, and noted the size i of the dark accidental or complimentary image when projected on the wall. When, by moving forward or backward, this spectral image is made to assume the size of the real moon, it must appear to be the same distance from the observer’s eye; and Mons Plateau found his distance from the wall to be about fifty-six yards. | In a similar manner Mons. Stroobant proved the sun’s apparent distance to be about fifty-three yards. Longevity. In order to live a hundred years, it has been announced that you must breaths all the out-of-door air possible, and breathe it deeply, and that you must tako your sleep as nature indicates, eight or nine hours in the early part of the dark, which will allow you to be up anill fully refreshed at sunrise. In addition to these important items of sleep and breath, it is further declared that yo« must not permit yourself to get angry or to fret or worry; but that, if you must, al once take a bath and some immediate slumber: that you must eat more vegeta bles and grains and fruits than meats, I and dismiss wines and spirits, coffee and tea; that you must bathe often, wear loose clothing, and keep warm; and that you must control your appetites and pas sions, cultivate cheerful serenity, and be j governed by the advice of your physician. —Bazar. Drinks for the Voice. Tea, coffee and cocoa are three admis sible drinks, but none in excess. For the voice cocoa is the most beneficial. It should never be made too strong, and those cocoas are the best that have been deprived of their oil. A cup of thin cocoa, just warm, is more to be recom mcned between the exertions of singing than any alcoholic beverage. Tea must not be taken too strong, nor when it has drawn too long, for tea then becomes acrid and has a bad influence on the mu cous membrane that lines the throat. There is always a dry sensation after hav ing taken a cup of tea that has been al lowed to draw too long. A vocalist had better do without sugar in tea and only , take milk with it, or if an exhilarating drink is needed, mix some claret with the tea, putting in a slice of lemon and some honey. Tlie Funny Man of the Future. At one of the schools the master, in a general exercise, wrote the word “doz en” on the blackboard and asked the pupils to each write a sentence contain ing the word. He was somewhat taken aback to find on one of the papers the following unique sentence: “I dozen know my lesson.” If that boy lives to grow up he will be an editor, or funny man, on some of O'! r contemporaries.— i Eiiiladdphia CaU. Men Who Promised Little. Gibbons, the Primate of the Catholic Church in America, who is rained as a coming Cardinal, graduated near the foot of his class in college, and was in no wise a brilliant student, nor is he noted ns a pulpit orator. Senator Gorman of Maryland, in his younger days, when he was Postmaster of the Senate, and measured considera bly less around the waistband than now, was President of the old National Base Ball Club, and was noted as nn accurate thrower and catcher. Fifteen years ago Mr. Jos’ph Arch was a farm laborer, supporting his fam on four dollars weekly wages, and he is now a member of Parliament. He is what is commonly called n self-made man, but, as his wife tanglit him to read and write, he may be considered a cred itable specimen of domestic manufacture. Justice Field tells how his pride had a fall. When he was a young man he was particularly proud of his erect form and fine, curling hair. Walking one day with head well up he ran against a cart and injured his knee. The injury resulted in permanent lameness and a consequent stoop in bis shoulders. Af terward hard study produced brain fever, and a fly-blister cured the fever and destroyed his waving locks. Gladstone, as a young man, was not overestimated by Disraeli, who wrote in a letter in February, 1845, and now first published, that Gladstone’s address was dull and ineffective, and that he might come to be somebody, but he did not think so. He also writes of a dull din ner party at which “young Gladstone” was present; but there was an excellent ly cooked swan, stuffed with truffles, which, according to Disraeli, was ‘‘the best company there. The Hindoos are again complaining of the poor quality of idol furnished them by the Birmingham manufac turers. It seems that these manufaturers have been producing such ugly styles of idols that even the most relgious Hindoo can’t worship them with fervor. More over they are made out of cross-grained, knotty wood, and are painted with cheap minsra' paint which in hot weather comes .iff' when the devotees kiss them. The Hindoo is very patient, but it does rile him when the paint of a high-priced god sticks to his lips. it Had to Come. Col. P. Donan, the Dakota statesman, and the one who has done so much to encourage the immigration of unmarried women to the Territory,while remaining whole-hearted himself, has written a letter to the Fargo Aryan and confessed his condition.
