The text selected was elatthnv xxv. ZZ, "I was a stranger, and ye took me in." It is a rroral disaster that jocosltj- has despoiled s many passages of scripture, tri! my text i.s one that has suffered from irreverent and misapplied quotation.

Uy railroad and steäm'.-at the jH.pula-tie-n of the earth an? all the time in mo-ti'-n, and from one year's end to another our cities are crowded with i-itors. Kvery morning on the tracks of the Hudson river, the Pennsylvania, the Kri- the Li-n I.-land railr ids there come pabsi !ifr-r trains more than 1 can rumber. so that all the -ii.s and the wharves are a rumble and a-claiiR with the condnjr in cf a great immigration of strangers. Some o? them tome fr purposes ' of barter, snie fur mechanism, -cmo for artistic rrratüieati ;n. some for -.ightseeinjr. A pr(,at many of them go out on the evening trains, and consequently the city makes Put little impression upon them, but there are multitudes who, in the hte;s anl hoardintr houses, make temporary re.s:de nee. They tarry here for three or four das. cr as many Tvee-ks. They Fjead the days in the st'-res and the e endues in sightseeing. Their tf-mp-.-rary stay will make or break lhem not ociy lio.mcia .!y. but morally, for this world ut. I the world that is to come. Multitudes ..f them come int.. our rtorning and eveninpr services.

A walk through Rroadway at S o'clock et night is interesting, educating, fascinating, appalling, exhiliarat ing to the last degree, fc'top in front of that theater and tee who goes in. Stop at that sa'n and see who comes out. Hee the frre-at tides tT life surging backward and forward and beating against the marble of the curbstone and edjying down Into the KUex.ns. What is that mark on the t face of that deiauchee? it U the hectle ' flush of eternal death. What Is that woman's laughter? It is the shriek of a los-t seul. Who is that Christian man going along rlth a vial of anodyne to the dying iauper on Elm-st.? Who in that belated man on the way to a prayer meeting? "Who Is that city missionary going to ''.ke a box in whieh to bury a child? Who are all these clusters of bright and be-autiful face? Th"y are goln to some interesting; place of amusement.

He is Rolnff In fcr a close of belladonna, and before morning it will make no difference to him -whether stocks are up or d-vwn. I tell you that Broadway, between 7 and 12 o'clook at nigit. between the Battery
and Central park, is an Austerlitz. a (lettyshurg. a Waterloo, where kingdoms are lost or won, and three worlds mingle in the trife. Nei-lnir Iii' Slum. I me-t another coming down off the hotel steps, and I say, "Where are you going?" You say. "I am going with a merchant of New York who lias promised to show me the underground life of the city. I a.m his customer, and he is going tl oblige ni" very much." St 'p! A business house that tries to get or keep your custom through such a process as that is not worthy of you. There are business establishments in our cities which have for years been sending to dostructkn hundreds and thousands of merchants. They have a secret drawer in the counter where money is kept, and the clerk goes and gets it when he wants to take these visitors to th" city through the low slums of the place. Shall I mention the names of pom? of these great commercial establishments? I have them, on my lips. Shall I? Perhaps I had better leave it to the young men wh'", in that process, have been destroyed themselves while they have been destroying others. I care not how high-soundin? the name ef a c-onimerclal establishment if it proposes to get cus
tomers or to keep them by such a process as that. Drop their acquaintance. They will cheat you before you get through. They will send you a style of g-'.nis different from that which you lmght by sample, Tlvy will give you underweight. There will b.- in the package half a dozen es pairs of suspenders than you paid for. They will rob you. Oh, you ft-el in y ur pockets and say. "Is my money gone?" They have robbed you of s unething for which dollars and cents can never give you conip'Mis.it ion. When one of these western merchants has b.'en dragged by one of those t- snnieivhi agents through the slums of the city he is pot lit to go home. The mere memory of what he has seen will le moral pollution. I think you had better let the city missionary and the police attend t the exploration of New York and underground life. You do imt go to a s:uill-pN hospital for the purpose cf exploration. You do not g there because y.,u are afraid of contagion. And yet you go Into th- presence of a mral leprosy that is as much more daagprous to you as the dath cf the soul is worse than th death of the body. I will undertake to say that nine-tenths of tiie men who have been ruined in our lilies have been ruined by simply going to ohst re without any idea of partlcipa ting. Mxplorinjr n City's I n liii ! t ies. The f.ie js that underground city life is a Pithy, fuming, reeking;, pestiferous d'j-.h which blasts the eye that looks at ir. In the reign of terror in in I'arls people- escaping f t o:n the cflicers o' the law g.t into the sewers of the city and crawled and walked through miles of thi.t awful labyrinth s;i:i"d with the atmosphere and almost dead, seme of them, when they came eV1t to the river S -ine, where they wash 1 themstl..es and again breathed the fre-di air. Cut I hive to tell y,,ii that a great many of the men who go on the work of exploration throüg'a the underground gutters .f New York I'.t'e never c ni" out ai any S-ine river where they can wi-h off the pollution of th-' moral sewage. Strang, r, if any one of the ivprosentathts of a conmreial establishment propt es b take you an 1 show you the "sights" of th i vtv:i and undergroundNew York, say to him. "Please, sir.wh.it part do you prop i--e to show me?" About sixteen years ago as a mi -!- ter of religion I f.d: 1 had a divine mniision to exidore the iniquities of our -ities.

Just a in the sickly season yecj sometimes hear the bell at -the- gate o," the c meteiy ringing almost incessantly, so I found that the bell at th" gat- of the cemetery wrier ruined sou.'.s are burled was tolling by day and tol'ing ly night. I said: "I will explore." 1 wru as a physician goes into a fever l iz i! tto. to see what, pr.o-tieal and u-cfal informat: .n I might get.

When the lecturer ia a ndi .".1 College is done with his 1-ctur". he takes the students into the ellssecting i' tni, and h" shows them the reality. I want and saw. and uue forth to my pulpit; to report a pi igue. and to tell how sin dissects the body, and dissects the miml and dissects the soul. "Oh," sav you. "are you not afraid trial in consequence of such exploration of th - iniquities ot the city ether persons might make exploration and do themselves damage?" I r ply. "If in Company with tne -onimissioner of police ar.d th captain of p. dice, and the inspector of police, and the company of two Chris tie ii gentlemen, and not with the spirit of curiosity, but that you may sf-e sin in order the Udtef to combti it, then in the mine of the eternal Cod. go. IJut, if not, then stay away." Wellington, s' anding in th" battle of Waterloo when the bullets were buzzing around his head, saw a civilian in the ii'dJ. He ?aid to him, "Sir, what are you doing here? lie offi" "Why," replied the civilian, "there is no more danger here for me than there is for you." Then Wellington Hushed up and said, "(lod and my country demand that I be here, but you have no errand here." Now I. as an otlicer in the army of Jesus Chrl-t. w.-nt on that exploration and e.nt tint butl.liold. If you bear a like commission, go; if not, stay away. Put you say. "Don't yu think that s meliow th- description of those places induces people t go and see for themselves?" I answer, yes. Just as much as the description of yellow fever in some soour;p-d city -would Induce people to go down there and get the pestilence. Put I miy be addressing some stranger already destroy d. Where is he, that I may pointedly yet kindly address him? Come back and wash In the deep fountain of a Saviour's mercy. I do not give you a cup, or a chalice, or a pitcher with a limited supply to effect your ablutions. I point you to the five oceans of Cod's mercy. Oh. that the Atlantic and Pacific surges of divine forgiveness might roll over your soul! (ool Morn iii nr. As the glorious sun of God's forgiveness rides on toward the midheavens, n-ady to submorge you In warmth and light and love, I bid you good morning! Morning of jK'sce for all your troubles. Morning of liberation for all your incarcerations. Mornlnj? of resurrection for your soul burled In sin. Cond morning! Morning for the resuscitated household that has been waiting for your return.

Iii our hist dreadful war the federals and confederal es weie encamped on oppositesides of the Puppaharinock. and on- morning th- brass band of the northern troops played the national air. and all the northern troops cheered and cheered. Then on the opposite side of the Kappahannoek the brass band of th confederates played "My Maryland" and "Dixie." and then all the southern tnx.ps cheered and cheered. Put after a while one of the bands struck up "Horn., Sweet Home," and the band on the opimsite side of tho river teetk up the strain, and when the tune was done the confederates ami federals all together united, as the tears rolled down their checks, in one great huzia! huzza! Well, my friends, heaven ooms verynear today. It is only a stream that divides us th- narrow stream of death and the yokes there and the voices hTe seem to commingle, and we Join trumpets and hosannahs and hallelujahs, and the chorus of the united song of earth an I heaven is "Home. Sweet Home." Home of bright domestic circle on earth! Heine of forgiveness in the great heart of God! Home of eternal
rest in heaven! Home! Home! Home! The Seieiitlr Day :utI. Sabbath morning comes. You wake up in the hotel. Y'ou have had a longcsleep than usual. You say: "Where am I? A thousand miles from home? I have no family to talre to church today. My pastor will not expect my presence. I thing I shall look over my accounts and ttudy my memorandum biKk. Then I write a few business letters and talk to that merchant who came in on the sam train with me." Stop! You cannot afford to do it. "Put," jou say. "I am worth tpio.aoa." You cannot afford to do it. You say. "1 am, worth $l.cja.Oo." You cannot afford to do it. All you gain by hioaking the Sabbath you will lose. You will lose one of three things your intellect, your morals, or yeur property and yem cannot Vint in the whol" earth to a single exception to this rule. God gives us six days and keeps one for Himself. Now. if we try to get the seventh. He will upset the work of all the other six. I remember g -ing up Mt. Washington, be for.- t?;- railroad had be-n built, to th:- Tip-Top house, and the guide wculi c-f ine around to our horses ar.d stop us whrri we were crossing a very steep and dangerous plt"e. and h would tighten the girth of the horse and straighten the saddle. And I have to ttll you that this road of life is so st"ep and full of peril we must at l'ist one day in seven stop and have the harness of life readjusted and oar souls i-e-cquij-ped. The sev n days of the week are like seven business Partners, und you must give to each one his share, or the business wi'l be broken up. C..d is so generous with us; lie has given you six days to His one. New, here is a father who lias seven apples, and he gives six to his greed v b y, proposing to Keep one for barest If. The greedy boy grabs for the other one and loses all the six. Cull In U' Hie S Iiiiii III. !! w f"W men there cäre who know how to keep the Lord's day away from h 'ta A great many who are consistent on the banks of the St. Lawrence, or the Alabama, or -the Mississippi are not consistent when they get so far o'f as the Ildst river. I n peat thou gh it is putting it on low ground you canned tinan. i illy afford to break the Lord's day. It is oi ly another way of tearing up your government securities ami rutting down the price of goods and blowing tip your store. I have friends v.i e are all the time slicing off pieces of tha Sabbath. They cut a little of the Sabbath off that end and a little off that end. They do ivt keep r.yenty-four hours. Th-? b:b says. "Kemembt r th" Sabbath da . to keep it holy." I have good friends who are accustomed to Itaving Albany by th" midnight train -n Saturday night nnd get-tin'-home before church. Now, there may be occasions when it is right, but gen n.lly it is wrong. How if the train should run off the track into the North river? I hope your file.;. Is will ind st n 1 to in" to pivaeh your funeral se:mon It v..uld be an r.wkw..rd tiling ft r n.e to stand up by your side and pr ach you, a Christian man. kiikd on a rail tndn trrve'iing on a Sunday morninrr. "Ke-m-niler th- Sabbath day, to ke?p it holy." What does that mean? It means t wt i.ty-four hours. A man owes you a dollar. Ye. u don't want hini to pay you :ij cents. You want the dollar. If God demands of us twenty-four hours ut of the week, h m ans twenty-four hours and not ninete.-n. Oh, we want to keep vigilantly in this country the Anuriean S.:'obith and iv-t have transplanted here the ih-.ropean Sabbath, winch, for the mo.-t part, is no Sabbath at all. If any of oq have been in Paris, you knowthat on Sabbath morning the vest population rush out toward the country with baskets and bundles, and toward night they come back fagged out. cross and intoxicated. May Conl preserve to us our glorious, quiet, American Sabbaths. Into the Tinwr f (mmI'm lerv. Oh, strängt rs, welcome to the great city. May you find Christ here, and not any physical or meral damage. Men coming from inland, fr.-m distant cities, have here found Cod and found Htm in our service. May that be your cae today. You thought you were brought to this place merely for the iuipo-e of sightseeing. Perhaps God br. tight you to this roaring eity for the purpose of working out your- ternul salvation. Go back to jmir homes and tell them how you. met Christ here the loving, patient, panb nlng. and sympathetic Christ. Who knows but the city whit h has been the dtstruction of so many may be your eternal redemption ? A good many years ago Edward Stanley, the English commander, with his laglment, took a fort. The fort was manned by some .0 Spaniards. Edward Stanley came close up to the fort, leaving his men, when a Spaniard thrust at him with a spear, intending to destroy his life, but Stanley caught hold of the spear, and the Spaniard. In attempting to Jerk the spear away from Stanley, lifted him up into the battlements. No sooner had Stanley taken his position on the battlements than he swung hi sword, and his whole regiment leaped after him, and the f.rt was taken. So It ncty bo with you, O stranger. The city influences which have destroyed so many and dashed them down forever shall be the means of lifting you up into the tower of Cod's mercy and strength, your soul more than conqueror through the grace of 11 im who has promised an -secial benediction to those who shall treat you well, saying, "I was a stranger, and ye took me in."

It was from hint that the Messiah, the great deliverer, came In the fullness of time (I Chnm. v, 2; H b. vii, 14).

"Come and let us sell him to the IshmieHt(.5i ;ind let not our hand b upon him; for he is our brother and our fl'.fdi. And his brethren were content."

"And he kn.-w it and said. It is my son's coat; an evil boast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pit ccs." Tht'iv was no themical analysis to prove thet the blood, on the.t eat was net human: there was no son honest enough to tell the facts in the case, and so Jacob must be allowed to think that his much lovf-d son was actually slain, and for twenty years he le-ib-ved the samo (xliv. 2$,. What an evil beast is envy and hatred, true children of the mating lion (1 Pet. v. 8)'. 34. "And Jacob rein his clothe-, and put sackcloth np-ni his beins, and mourned for his son many days." Whatever we sow we reap. Jacob had sown the wind and was reaping t lie? whirlwind (Cal vi, 7; Ib. vill. 7). He had cruelly deceive-d his father nnd lh-d to him (chapter xxvii, 21, and now he was reaping a terrible harvest. This principle of rttilbutl'm is st en continually nnd enough e.f ii to m tke all but the most hardened believe that God mtns what He says. :!.". "And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be oomferted. and he said. For I will go down into the grave unto my son mourning; thus his father wejd for him." How nnny daughters Jacob had we are not told. One. Dinah, is mentloneel by name (xxxiv, 1). We can understand how they might sincerely try to comfort 'their father, but hu- these lying sons could comfort him is somewhat of a mystery. He is surely to be pitied, for he had not the light which we have upon the future. He looked into the grave; we look tip ami know that "to die is pain," "to depart and be with Christ is far better" (Phil. 1. 21. 2H). 3t. "And the Midianites fold him into Egypt, unto Potiphar. an officer of phareah's and captain of the guard." The curtain falls up en the sorrowing father and the deceitful son, and we are given one glimpse of the poor boy so cruelly torn away from his home. lie is nmv a slave in Egypt in the house of the chief of the executioners (see marKin). P.ut whether a slave in Potlphar's Imuse or a prisoner falsely accused he is always prosperous, for "the lord was with him" (chapter xxxlx, 2. 3. 21, 2Z) and there was blessing everywhere. He was one of the blessed men of Ps. 1, 1-C. Ileef Jelly. This is an excellent food for ina)ij and convalescents.
