Rev. T. DeWitt Talmasr'e tools for the Subject of. a recent sermon in the Brooklyn Tabernacle the sin of “Jealousy,” taking for his text:. J Jealousy Is Hie rage 6t a few.—Proverbs VL.M Jlesnid: . Some subjects a religious teaci touches a thousand times, now coming on them from one direction, now another. But here is a Bible theme luat for s$nto reason is left teetotally alone. ThiS morning, asking your pray ers and in the strength of God, I want to grapple it. There is an old sin, haggard, furious, tiionsttciHs and diabolical, that has for ages walked and frttWled the earth. It combines ail that is obnoxidus In.thS hices,human,quadrupedal,ornit kologicai > reptilian arid infertile,. horned, tusked;, i hoofed, fanged, s tinged: the bye Of a basilisk, the tooth of an adder, the jawtr fcf a crocodile, Ure crushing folds cf an Siis>* conda, the slyness of a scoi-pion, the tongue* Of a Cobra, and the coil of the Vrorm that never dies: It is »«* every community. in every church, in every lPgiclative hall, in every monetary iostitutkui, in every drawing-room levee; in every literary and professional circle. it whis - pers, it hisses, it lies, it debauches, it blasphemes, it damns. My text names it when it savsu Jealousy is the rage ot a man. It is grief at the superior ity of others; their superiority in talent or wealth (if beauty or elegance or virtue, or social or professional or political recognition: It is the shadow of other people's success, ft is the shiver in our pocket-bool: because It is not as fat as some one else’s pocket-book. It is the twinge in our tongue because it is Hot as eloquent as some one else’s tongue. It is the flutter in our robes because they are not as lustrous as some elue’s robes. It is the earthquake Under our house be* cause it is not as many fee t front and deep as our neighbor’s house. It is the thunder of Other people’s popularity souring tile milk of our kindness. It is the father and mother both of one-half of the discontent and outrages, and detractions, and bankruptcies, and crimes and woes of the human race. It was antediluvian as modi as it is postdiluvian. It pot a rough stick in the hands of the first boy that was ever bora, and said to him: “Now, Cain, when Abel is looking the other way, crush his skull; for his sacrifice has been accepted and yours rejected.” And Cain picked Up the stick as though just to walk with it, and while Abel was watching some birds in the tree-top. or gazing at some waterfall, down came the blow of the first assassination. which has had its echo in all the fratricides, matricides, uxoricides, homicides, infanticides and regicides of all ages and all nations. This passion of jealousy so disturbed Caligula at the prominence of some of the men of his time, that he cut a much admired carl front the brow of Cincinnutus, and took the embroidered collar from the seek of Torquatus, and bad Ptolbinacui killed liecause of his purple robe, which attracted too much attention. After Columbus liad placed America as a gem in the Spanish crown, jealousy set on the Spanish courtiers to depreciate: his achievement, and aroused animosities till thg great discoverer had his heart broken. Urged on by this bad passion. Dionysius flayed Plato because he was wiser than himself, and Philoxenius because Ms music was too popular. Jealousy made Korah lie about Moses and Succoth denpeciate Gideon.

That fired Antony against ® Cicero. Tiberius exiled an architect because of the fame he gut for a beautiful porch, and slew a poet for his tine tragedy. That set Saul in a rage against David. How graphical the Bible putt it when it says: ‘.-Saul eyed David." It seems, to lake possession of both eyes and makes them flash and burn like two port-holes of hell. “Saul eyed David.” That is to say: “You little upstart, how dare you attempt any thing great 1 will grind you Under my heel. I will exterminate you, 1 will, you miserable homunculus. Crouch, crawl, slink into that rat-hole. I will teach those women to sing some other song, ins tead of "Saul has slain his thousands, but David his tens of thousanis.” When Voltaire heard that Frederick the Great was forgetting him and putting his li terary admiration on Bacdularcl d’ Amand. the old infidel leaped ont of his bed and danced the floor in a maniacal rage, and ordered his swiftest horses hooked tip to : carry him to the Prussian palace. That despicable passion of jealousy led Napoleon I. to leave in Ui s ill a bequest of five thousand francs to the ruffian who shot at Wellington when the victor of Waterloo was passing through Paris. That stationed the grouty cider brother at the back door of the homeste ad when the prodigal son returned, and threw a chill on the family reunion while that elder ; brother complained, saying: “Who ever heard of giving roast real to such a ; profligate?" Aye, that passion rose up and under the darkest cloud that ever shadowed the earth, and amid the loudest thunder that ever shook the mountains, and amid the wildest flash of lightning that ever blinded or stnnneel the nations, ' hung up on two pieces of rough lumber back of Jerusalem the kindest, purest, kmngest nature that Heave a could dele- ' gate, and stopped not until tliere was no power left in hammer or bramble or javelin to hurt the dead Son of God. That passion of jealousy, livid, hungry, nnbalked, rages on, and it now pierces the earth like a fiery diameter and encircles it like a fiery circumference. It wants both hemispheres. It wants the heavens. It would, if it could, capture the palace of God, and dethrone Jehovah, and ■chain the Almighty in eternal exile, and after the demolition of the universe woulil err: "Satisfied mt la it, here I am, alone, the undisputed and. everlasting I, me. mine, myself !” That passion Imps all Europe perturbed. Nations, jealous of Germany, of England, of • Russia, and those jealous -of, each other, attif all of them jealous of America. ■•*■ r. , In our land this passion' of jealousy keeps all the political world aboil. There are at least five hundred people who are jealous of Governor Hill, and would like to he his'successor; about; live thousand - who are jealous of Grover Cleveland, and would like to relieve him «! the caies of office, and after the nominations of next summer have been made, airhole pandemonium of defamation, semrOity, hntretl,

Look at the sacred and Heaven-de-scended Science of healing, and then see Dr. Mackenzie, the feflglleh surgeon, who prdlonged the life of the Crowd Prince of GerUiaiiy until he became Emperor, Stt6 I hope may yet edre him, so that he may for many years goverit ‘bat magnificent German nation, than which tfie»e is no grander. Yet so great are the medlfal jealousies that Dr. Mackenzie dare not walk the streets of Berlin. He is under military guard. The medical students of Gertnany can hardly keep their hands off of him. The old doctors of Germany are writhing with indignation, The fact is that in saving Frederick's life Dr, Mackenzie saved the peace of Europe. There was not an intelligent man on either side the ocean that did not fear for the result if the throne passed from wise and good oid Emperor William to his inexperienced grandson. But when, under the ntodlsal treatment of Dr. Mackenzie, the Crown Prince Frederick took the throne, a wave of satisfaction and confidence rolled over Christendom. What shall the world do with the doctor Who saved his life! "Oh,” cried out the medical jealousies of Europe, “destroy him; of course, destroy What a brutal scene of jealousy we had in this country when President Garfield lay dying. There were faithful physicians that sacrificed their other practice and sacrificed their health for all time la fidelity to that death-bed. Doctors Bliss and Hamilton and Agnew went through anxieties, and toils, and fatigues such as none but God could appreciate. Hotting pleased in any of the medical profession. The doctors in charge did nothing right. We who did not see the case knew better than those who agonized over it in the sick-room for many weeks. I, who never had any thing worse than a run-round on my thumb, which seemed to me at the time was worthy all the attention of the entire medical fraternity, had my own ideas as to how the President ought to be treated. And in proportion as physicians and laymen were ignorant of the case, they were sure the treatment practiced was a mistake. And when in post-mortem the bullet dropped out of a different portion of the body from that in which it was supposed to have been lodged, about two hundred thousand people shouted: “I told you so!” “There! I knew it all the time.” There are some doctors in all cities who would rather have the patient die under the treatment of their own schools than have them get well under finnip nthpr natnv. “

Yea, look at the clerical profession. I am sorry to say that m matters of jealousy It is no better than other professions. There are now in all denominations a great many young clergymen who have a faculty for superior usefulness. But they are kept down and kept back and crippled by older ministers who look askance at these rising evangelists. They are snubbed. They are jostled. They are patronizingly advised. It is suggested to them that they had better know their plaice- If here and there one with more nerve, and brain, and consecration and divine force go past the seniors who want to keep the chief places, the young are advised In the words of Scripture: “Tarry at Jericho til! their beards are grown.” They are charged with sensationalism. They are compared to rockets that go np in a blaze and come down sticks, and the brevity of their career is jubilantly prophesied. ""If it be a denomination with, bishops, a bishop is implored to sit down heavily on the man who'will not be molded; or, if a denomination without bishops, some of the older men with nothing more than their own natural heaviness and theological avoirdupois are advised to flatten out the innovator, lit conferences, and presbyteries, and associations, and conventions there is often seen the moot damnable jealousy. Such ecclesiastical tyrants would not admit that jealousy had any possession of them, and they take on a Heavenly air, and talk sweet oil and sugar plums and balm of a thousand flowers, and roll up their eyes with an air of unctuous sanctity when they simply mean the destruction of those over whom they pray aad-anulBe. Then: are cases where ministers of religion ere derelict and criminal, and they must be pat out. Bat in the majority of cases that I have witnessed in ecclesiastical trials there is a jealous attempt to keep men from surpassing their theological fellows, and as at the presidential elections id country places the people have » barbecue, which is a roasted' os, round, which the people dance with khives, cntt&goff a slice here, and pulling put a rib there, and sawing 08 a beefsteak yonder, and having a.high time, so most of the denominations of Christians keep on hand a barbecue in which soqgte.mmister is roasted, while the church courts dance around with their sharp kiUves of attack, and one takes ah ear, another a hand, another afoot, and it is hard to tell whether the ecclesiastical plaintiffs of this world or the demons of the nether werM most enjoy it Albert Barnes, than whoa: no mihi bus accomplished more good i» the last thousand years, was decreed to sit silenvfor a year in the pew of his own ehttreh while some one else occupied his pulpit the pretended offense that he did mot believe ia a limited atonement, but the real offense the fact that all the men who tried him „ gether would not eq ual one Alberti Yee; amid all professions i and occupations and trades, and amid all sireles needs t o be heard what God says in regard to envy sad jealousy, which, though not exactly tfcw f.*o)e. are twins: “Envy ia the rottenness of fits bone;” “Whore envy and (strife w. there is eonfoptoa and- 'every sjjl work; “Jealousy is the rage My hearers, if t " ’ia-. tn any «: your unto God for its <

Tradition Bays that when Moses lifted up Ms hand to pray tt w« »tj encrusted with manna, and no sooner do yod pray than yon are helped. Away with the aeetmed, stenchful, blackening, damning crime ofjealousy. Allow it to stay and it will eat up and carry off all the aeSigion you can pat* into your soal for the next half-century. It will do you more harm Ilian it does any one it leads yon to aeaniL It will delude yon with the idea thot yon can build yoursatf op by palling somebody else down.

Mind J font own business. In all circles, in all businesses, in all''professions there is I room for strsigfrtfcwwardsuccesses. Jealousy entertained will not only bedwarf yotff soul, but it will flatten your skull, bemean yam en. put piachedness of look about your ndwril* give a bad curl to the Up, and expel from your face the Divine image in whjch yon were created.

If some one is higher up in social position, thunk God that those who are down need not fear a fall. If some one gets higher office in Church or State tb»n yon, thank God there are notso many td wish for the hastening on of your obloquies. The Duke of Dantxig, in luxurious apartments, was visited by a plain friend, and to keep his friend from Jealousy the Duke * saint - • “You can have all I have If! you will stand twenty paces off and let me shoot at you one hundred times." “Ho, no," said his friend. “Well/' said the Duke, “to gain all my honors I faced on the battle-field more than a thousand gnnshots fired not more than ten paces off.” '' A Minister of a small congregation complained to a minister of a large congregation ..bout the sparseness of his .•'ttendante, “Ah,” sdid the one of large audience,1 “my son, you Will And in the day of Judgment that you had quite enough people for whom to be held accountable.” Substitute for jealonsy an elevating emulation, fleeing others good; let ns try to be better. Seeing others industrious, let us work more bows, fleeing others benevolent, let ns resolve on giving larger percentage of our means fer charity. May God put congratulations for others into o*t right hand a id cheers on our lips for those who do brave and useful things. Life is short at the longest; let it all be filled np with helpfulness for others, work andsympathy for each other’s misfortunes, and oar arms be full of white mantles to cover np the mistakes and failures of others. If an evil report, about some one cornea to us. let as put;on the most favota- ! ble construction, as the Hhone enters Lake Leman fool and comes out crystalline. Do not btlild so much on the transitory differences of th{<> world, for soon it will make no difference to as whether we had ten million doll ars or tea cents, and the ashes into which the tongue of Demosthenes dissolved are just like the ashes into which the tongue of the veriest stammerer went i

IT you are assuuea oy jealousy, mn*e no answer. Take it as a compliment, for people are never jealous of a failure. Until your work is done you are invulnerable. Remember how oar Lord behaved under such exasperations. Did they not try. to catch Him in his word! Did they not call Him the victim of intoxicants? Did they not misinterpret Him from the winter of the year 1 to the spring of the year S3—that is, from His first infantile cry to the last groan of His assassination! Yet He answered not a word. But so fay from demolishing either His mission or His good name, after near nineteen centuries He outranks everything under the skies, and is second to none above them, and the archangel makes salaam at His footstool. Christ’s bloody antagonists thought that they had finished Him when they wrote over the cross His accusation in three languages—Hebrew, Greek and Latin—not realising that they were by that act introducing Him to all nations, since Hebrew Is the holiest language, and Greek the wisest of tongues and Latin the widest spoken. Yon are not the first man who had his faults looked alt through a microscope and and his virtues through the wrong end of a telescope. Pharoah had the chief butler and baker endungeoned, and tradition says that all the butler had done was to allow a «y in tlie King’s cup, and all the s' baker had done was to leave a gravel in the if log’s ureikd. The world has the habit of making a great ado about what you do wrong and forgetting to say any thing about what you do right, but the same God will take care of you who provided for Merlin, the Christian martyr, when hidden ffom his pursuers in a hay-mow in Paris, and a hen came and laid an egg close by Urn every morning, thna keeping him from starvation.
