DR. TALMAGE’S SERMON. • GOOD ahd evil come back - {Preached at The Hampton*, Lons 1 aland.'; of the earth.'I—lsaiah 1 —Isaiah xl., '.2. While yet people thought that the world was i at, and thousands of years before they found out that it was round, Isaiah, in my tert, intimated the shape of it. LKxi sitting upon the circle of the earth. The most beau tiiul figure in all geometry is the circle. God made th universe on the plan of a circle There are in the natural world straight lines, angles, pat allelogrames, diagonals, quad rangle*; but those evidently are not Gods favorites. Almost everywhere where you find him geometrizing, you find the circle Uoinmant, and if not tho circle, then the curve, which is a circle that died young. If it had lived 1 long enough it would have been a full orb, a periphery. An ellljise is a circle pres ed only a little too hard at the sides. Giants Causeway in Ireland shows what God thinks of mathematics. There are over 3.'i,00t. columns of rocks—octagonal, hexagonal, pentagonal. These rocks sem to have been made uy rule and by compass. Every artist has bis molding room where he may make fifty shapes, but he chooses one shafie as pre ferable to all the others. I will not say that the Giant’s Causeway was the world's mold ing room, but I do say, out of a great many figures Got seems to Eave selected the circle a-the best. “It is He that sitteth un tho cir cle of the earth.” The stars in a circle, the moon in a circle, the sun in a circle, the uni verse in a circle and the throne of God tho centre of that circle. When men build churches, they ought to imitate the idea of the great Architect and put the audience in a circle, knowing that the tides of emotion roll more easily that way than in straight lines. Six thousand years ago God flung this world out of his right hand: he did not throw it out in a straight line, but curvilinear, with a leash of love boi ling it so as to bring it back again. The world started from his hand pure and edenic. It has been rolling on through regions of moral ice and distemper. How long it will roll God only knows; but it will iu due time mite complete circuit, and come back to the place where it started—the hand of God— pure and edenic. The history of th? world goes in a circle. Why is it that the shipping in our day is im proving so rapidly? It is because men are imitating the old model of Noah s Ark. A ship carjienter gives that as his opinion. Al though so much derided by small wits, that ship of Noah’s time beat the Etruria and the Germanic, of which we boast so much. Where is the ship on the sea to-day that could outride a deluge in which the heavens and the earth were wrecked, landing all the passengers in safety, two of each kind of living creatures, thousands of species. Po mology will go on with its achievements until after many centuries the world will have plums and pears equal to the paradisaical. The art of gardening will grow for centuries, and, after the Downings and Mitchells of the world have done their best, in tho far future the art of gar dening will r ome up to the arborescence of the year one. If the makers of colored glass go on im proving, they may in some centuries be able to make something equal to the east window of York Minster, which was built in 1290. We are six centuries behind those art sts, but the world must keep on toiling until it shall make the complete circuit and come up to the skill of those very men. If the world continues to improve in masonry we shall have aft rawhile, perhaps after the advance of centuries, mortar e.jual to that whir h 1 saw in the wall of an exhumed English city, built in the time of the Bomans, I,l'oo years ago- that mortar to-day is as good as the day in which it was made,having outlasted the brick and the stone. I say, after hundreds of years masonry may a 1- vance to that point. If the world stands long enough, we may have a city as large as they had in old times, Babylon, live times the size of London. You go into the potteries of England, and you find them making cups and vases after the style of the cups and vases exhumed from Pompeii. The world is not going back. Oh, no! but it is swinging in a circle, and will come back to the styles of pottery known so long ago as the days of Pompeii. The world must keep on progress ing until it makes tho complete circuit. Tho curve is in the right direction. The curve will keep on until it becomes a circle. Well, now, my friends, what is true in the material universe is true in God’s moral goy •nnnent and spiritual arrangement. That is tho meaning of Ezekiel s wheel. All com mentators agree in saying that the wheel means God’s Providence. But a wheel is of no use unless it turns, and if it turns it turns around, and if it turns around it moves in a circle. W hat then ? Are we parts of a great iron machine whirled around whether wo will or not, the victims of inexorable fate? No! So far from that, I shall show you that we ourselves start the circle of good or bad actions, and that it will surely come around again to us unless, bv divine interven tion, it be hindered. Those bad or good actions may make the circuit of many years; but come back to us they will, ns certainly as that God sits on the cir cle of the earth. Jezebel, the worst woman of the Bible, slew Naboth because she wanted his vineyard. While the dogs were eating the body of Naboth, Elisha, the prophet, put down his compass, and marked a circle from those dogs clear around to the dogs that should eat the body of Jezebel, the murderess. “Impossible !” the people said, “that will never happen.” Who is that flung out of the palace window ? Jezebel. A few hours after they come around, hoping to bury her. They find only the palms of her ham is and the skull. The dogs that devoured Jezebel and the dogs that devoured Naboth 1 Oh, what a swift, what an awful circuit I But it is sometimes the case that this circle sweeps through a century, or through mauy centuries. The world started with a the ocracy for government; that is, God was the President and Emperor of the world. People got tired of a theocracy. They said: “We don’t want God directly interfering with the all airs of the world; give us a monarchy. The world Lad a monarchy. From a mon archy it is going to have a limited mon archy. After a while the limited monarchy will be given up, and the Republican form of government will be everywhere dominant and re ogm ed. Then the world will get tired of the republican form of government, and it will have an anarchy, which is no gov ernment at all. And then, all na’ ions, find ing out that man is not capable of righteously governing man, will erv out again for the ocracy , and say: “Let God come back and conduct the affairs of the world.” Every step—monarchy, limited monarchy. Repub licanism, anarchy, only different steps be tween file first theocracy and the last the ocracy, or segments of the great circle of the earth on which God sits. But d.* not become impatient because you cannot see the curve of events, and therefore con hide that God's Government is going to break down. History tells us that in the maxing of the pyramids it took 2,000 men two years to drag one great stone from the quarry and put it into the pyramids. U ell, now, if men, short lived, can ass >rd to work so slowly as that, cannot God,in the building of the eternities,afford to wait? What though God should take 10,000 years to draw a cir cle? Shall we take our little watch, whi h we have to win 1 up eve y night lest it run down, and bold it up beside the clock of eternal ages? If, according to the Bible, a th nsand years at e iu Go l‘s sight os one day, then, according t > that calculation, the (5,000 years of ths world's existen e has been only to God as from Monday to Saturday. But it is often th ■ case that the rebound is quicker and the circle is soon ;r co npleted. You resolve that you will do what go j 1 you 'an. In one week yo i put a word of counsel iu theheart of a S ib’l/ath s-h ml child. During that same wee < you give a letter of intro luc ti n to a young man struggling in business. During the same week you make an exhorta tion in a prayer meeting. It is all gone; you will never hear of it, perhaps, you think. A few ye ars after a man c mis up to you and says: “You don’t know me, do you' 1 Nou *ay: “No, I don't remember ever to hive seen you.” “Why," he says, “I was in the Sabi aih-school class ovar which you were I the to i -her Ono Sunday vou invito !mo to Christ, la-ceotwl the offer. You see tnat oil ir. h wit i file two towers vender ’ “ Vos,’’ ysi sav. Hi iays: “That is wh*re I prea ’b ’ Or: “Do you see that Gov ernor's house! That is whore I live ' On* day a man comes to you and nys “I 100 I morning ” You lo knt him andsav “Why, you have the a I vantage of mo; I cann >t placeyou." Hesavs “Don't you remember, thirty years ago. giving n letter of intro luc tion t> a young man—a letter of introduction I to a prominent merchant?” “Yes, yes, I do.” He says: “1 am the man. That was my first step toward a fortune; but I have retired from business now, an 1 am giving luv time to philanthropies and public interests. C uno ;upto my country pla e and see me.” Or a man cotrei to you and says: “I want to in troduce myself to you. I went into a prayer meeting some years ago. I sat back by the doo-. You arose to make an exhortation. That talk change I the cours ■ of my life, an 1. if I ever get to h"aven, under God. 1 will I owe my salvation to you.” In only ten. twenty or thirty years, th? circle swept out and swept back again to vour own grateful heart. But sometimes it is a wider circle and does not return for a great while. I saw a bill of expenses for burning Latimer aud Ridley. The bill of expen-es says: One load of fir fagots Ils. 4d. Cartage of four leads of w00d.... 2s. Off. Item, a post Is. 4d. Item, two chains Bs. fit. Item, two staples Os. I'd. Item, four laborers 2a Sd. That was cheap fire, considering all the I circumstances;but it kindled a light whi h shone all around the world: and around ths martyr spirit: aud out from that burning of Latimer and Ridley rolled the circle, wider and wid -r, starting other circles, convolute ing, overrunning, circumscribing, overarch ing all heaven—a circle. But what is true of the good is just as true of the bad. You utter a slander against your neighbor. It has gone forth from your teeth. It will never come back, you think. You have done the man all the mischief you can. You rejoice bi see him wince. You sav: “Didn’t I give it to him!” That word has gone out, that slanderous word.on its poison ous and blasted way. You think it will never do you any harm: but I am watching that word, and I see it lieginning to curve, and it curves around, and it is aiming at your heart. You had better dodge it! You cannot dodge it. It rolls into your bosom, and after it rolls in a word of an old book, which says: “With what measure ye mete, it small be measured to you again." You maltreat an aged parent. Yon Be grudge him the room in your house. You are impatient of his whimsicalities aud gar rulity. It makes you mad to hear him tell tho same story twice. Y'ou give food he cannot masticate. Y’ou wish he were away. Y'ou wonder if he is going to live forever. He will be gone very soon. His steps are shorter aud shorter. He is go ng to stop. But God has an account to settle With you on that subject. After a while your eye will ba dim and your gnit will halt, and the sound of the griudmg will be low, and you will tell the same story twice, aud your children will wonder if you are going to live forever, and wonder if you will never be taken away. They called you “Father” once; now they I call you “the old man." If you live a few years longer they will call you “the old I chap.” What are those rough words with which your childreu are accosting you? They are the echo of tho very words you used iu the ear of your old father forty years ago. What is that which you are trying to chew, but find it unmasticable, and your jaws ache as you surrender the attempt! Perhaps it may be tho gristle whi h you gave to your father for his breakfast forty years ago. A gentleman 1 assing along the street saw a son dragging his father into the street by the hair of his head. The gentleman,out raged at this brutal conduct, was about to punish tho offender, when the old man arose and said: “Don’t hurt him; it’s all right; forty years ago this morning I dragge I out my father by the hair of the head.” It is a circle. My father lived into the eighties.and he had a very wide experience, and he said that maltreatment of parents was always punished in this world. Other sins may be ad ournedto the next world, but maltreat ment of parents is punished iu this world. The circle turns quickly, very quickiy. Oh! what a stupendous thought that the good and the evil we start come back to us. Do you know that the judgment day will be only the points at which the circles join, the good and the bad we have done coming back to us, unless divine intervention hinder —coming back to us welcome of delight or curse of condemnation? Oh! I would like tp see Paul, tho invalid missionary, at the nloment when his influence comes to full orb—his influence rolling out through Antioch, through Cyprus, through Lystra, through Corinth, through Athens, through Asia, through Europe, through America, through the nrst century, through five centuries, through twenty centuries, through all the succeeding centnries, through earth, through heaven, and. at last, the wave of influence having made l ull circuit strikes his great soul I Oh. then I would like to seo him! Noone can tell the wide sweep of the circle of his influence, (save the One who is seated on the circle of the earth. I should not want to see the countenance of Voltaire when his influence comes to full orb. When the fatal hemorrhage seized him at eighty three years of age bis influence did net cease. Tho mo,t brilliautman of his century, h had use 1 all his faculties for a-saulting Chris tianity; his bad influence widening through France, widening out through Germany, widening through all Europe, widening through America, widening through the 101 years that have gone by since he died, widen ing through earth, widening through hell, until at last the accumulated influence of his badlifein fierv surge of omnipotent wrath will beat against his destroyed spirit, and at I hat moment it will be enough to make the black hair of eternal darkness turn white with the horror. No one can tell how that bad man’s influence girdled the earth, save the Gue who is seated on the circle of the earth—the Lord Almighty. “Well, now,’ say people in this audience, “this, in some respects, is a very glad theory, and in others a xery sad one: we would like to have all the goed we have done come back to us, but the thought that all the sins we have ever committed will come back to us fills us with affright.” My brother, I have to tell you God can break that circle, and will do so at your call. I can bring twenty pas sages of scripture to j rove that when God, for Christ’s sake, forgives a man, the sins of his past life never come back. The wheel may roll on and roll on, but you can take your position behind the cross and the wheel strikes the cross and it is shattered for ever. The sins fly off from the circle into the perpendicular, falling at right angles into complete oblivion. Forgiven! Forgiven! The meanest thing a man can do is, after some difficulty has been settled, to bring it up again,and God will not b-som an as that. God’s memory is mighty enough to hold all the events of the ages, but there is one tiling that is sure to slip his memory, one thing he is sure to forget, and that is pardoned trans gression. How do I know it? I will prove it. “Their sins and their ini juities will I re member no more.” Conie info that state this morning, my dear brother, my dear sister. “Blessed is the one whose trangressions are forgiven.” , . , But do not make the mistake of thinking that this doctrine of the circle stops with this li.e; it roils on through heaven. You might quote in opposition to nie what St. John sa s about the city of heaven. Hesa s it “Heth four s uare.” That does seem to militate a-ain t this idea: but you know there is many a square house that has a family circle facing . ach other, and in a circle mo. ing, a id 1 can prove that this is so in regard to heaven. St John says: “I heard a voice of many angels round about the throne, and the beasts anl the elders." And a ain he says: “There was a rainbow round about the turone.” The two former instance* a circle- th; last ei her a circle or a semi cir le. ’ The seats fa ing each other, the angels facing each other, the men facing ea h other.

Having had some trouble with a New York advertising firm about how some of their medicine notices should run, and being determined to please we have fixed up the following, which we will publish eowtriwilpdq, top of column, among heavy editorial, and pearls of thought, or any other way they want it: A pale young man with dark, flashing eyes was proceeding cautiously along side of a little brook which flowed through the cool and leafy retreats of a den-e but inviting grove near a stately mansion. He had not gone far when Piebiter's Cure for Consumption never Kails. The great Pulverizer. Ask your Druggist. His attention was attracted by a fair young girl swinging in a hammock. She was the picture of loveli- i ness. She did not notice his ap- i proach. He drew nearer. I'se ' Buckwheater’s Bronchial Busters, the Howling llarpooner of Hoarseness and as he did so she looked up with a timid, startled, almost pleading glance. “Pardon me," said our hero, “but I wish to call your attention to Dr. Sagehen’s Catarrhal Cavorter. Yours for Health. I Beware of Imitations.” She drew back a little and the volume of “Lucile” which she was reading slipped from her hand. “You must recollect, sir,” she began, “that I have not the honor of your ac quaintance but if you can tell me of Dr. Snorter’s Dyspepsia Destroyer,trial Bottle Free, see that the name is Blown in the Cork, I will listen.” The young man did not answer but drew still nearer and sat down on a grassy hillock.

A boy about ten years of age was rush ing along the street of a Dakota town a* fast as he could run when he happened to meet his father. “Here, hold on!” cried the parent, grasping him by the arm, “you’ll make ycurself sick running so on such a hot day. Come on home to dinner.” “L-l-leggo o’ me, dad!” panted the half exhausted boy. “there’s a bully dog fight down here and I wantcr go and—.” “Dog fight!” exclaimed the father, getting excited. “Great Scott! what are you standin here for! Goon quicker n’ lightning and show me where it is!” and the boy dashed away making frantic efforts to keep from getting stepped on by his parent tearing wildly behind.— Bell. That Terrible Curse.
