L side the gate, ho cries o emphasis: •• Who slew We have, my friend! more fearful m of my taking yon time in trying to give yon statistics about the devastation and ruin and death which ntrong drink has wronght in this country. Statistics do not seem to mean any i hint. We are so hardened under these siatistlcs that the fact that fifty thousand m >re men are aiain, or fifty thousand less men are slain, seems to make no positive impression on the public mind Suffice it to say thatsintemperacice has slain au innumerable comwauy of pricceii—the children of OotlV'royal family; and at the gate of evety neighborhood thei-e are two heaps of tfii) slain; and at the tiioor of the household there are two heaps of the slain; and at the door of the legislative hall there are two heaps of the slain; and at the door of the university there are two heaps of the slain; and at the gate of thU Nation thero are tiro heaps of the slain. When I look apo i the desolation I am almost frantic with the scene, while l cry ont: i "Who slew all these?” I can answer that question in halt a minute. The ministers of Christ who have given no warning, ithe.eyurts of law that hare Offered the iiconsnrc. the women who give strong drink on New Y ear’s Day, the fathers sod mothers who have ram on the sideboard, the hundreds of thousands of Christian men and women in the land who are ttoli 1 in their indif - ferenee' on this subject—they slew all these. 1 propose in Uhls discourse to tell yon what 1 think are the sorrows and. the doom of the drunkard, so that you to whom 1 speak may not corn* to the torment Some one says: "You bad better let those subjects alone." Why. my brethren, we would be glad to let them alone it they would let us alone; but when I have in tuy pocket now four requests saying: “Pray for my husband, pray for my son, pray for my brother, pray for my friend, who is the captive of strong drink.” 1 reply: We are ready to let that question alone when It U willing to let us alone;‘but when it stands blocking up the way to Meavou and keeping multitudes away from Christ and Heaven. 1 dare not be silent lest the Lord require their blood at tuy hands. 1 think the subject hat been kept back very much by the merriment people make over those slain by strun; drink. 1 used to be very merry over these things, having a keen sense of'the ludicrous. Thero was something very grotesque in the gait of a drunkard. It is not so now; for 1 saw in one of the streets of Philadelphia a sight that changed the whole subject to me. There was a Voung uiau being led home. He was <#) much intoxicated— be was raving with intoxication. Two young men were leading aim along. The boys booted in the street, men laughed, women sneered; but I happened to be very uear tbu door where he went in—tt was the door of his father's house. 1 saw him go upstairs. 1 heard him shouting, booting and blaspheming. He had lost bis hat, and the merriment increased with the mob, uutil he came up to the door, and as the door was opened his mother came out. When 1 heard her cry that took all the comedy away from the scene. Since that time, » hen I see a mau walking through the street, reeling, the comedy is all goue, and it is a tragedy of tears and groans and heartprenks. Never make any fun around ui*.< about the gro-tesqueness-of a druqkard. Alas for his home I

The first suffering of th > drunkard Is in ike lew* of h>« good name. Hod has ao arranged it that no man ever loses hit good name except throng^ hw own act All the haired ol men/ fcfiu all the assaults of denis can not destroy a man’s good name if he really maintains his integrity. If a man is industrious and pare and Christian U sl leeks after btiu. Although he may be Iwmbarded for twenty or thirty years lxis integrity is j never lost and his good, name Is never sacrificed. Mo force on earth or in hell can captnre such a Gibraltar. But when it la said of a mim: ’ lie drink*.’? and it can be proved, then 'that employer wants him tor a workman! What store wants him for a clerk! What church wants him for a member! Who will trust him! What dying’ man would appoint him hit e*eoutor? He may have been forty yeara tu building u;> his reputation —U goes down, letters of recommendation. the backing up of business firms, a brilliant ancestry cun not save him. The work! shies off. Why! It Is whispered all through the community: “He drinks; j he ilriuks.” ® That blasts him. IWbeu man loaes his reputation for sobriety ho might as well be at the bottom of Uie^iea. There are men here who have their good name a* their only capital. Y ou ure now achieving yoyr owu livelihood, tuder Owl, by your own right nrm. Mow look out that there la no doubt of your aobriety. Do sot create any suspicion by going in and otrt of immoral places, or by auy odor of your breath, or by any glare of your eye. or by any unnatural Hash of yoar cheek. Ton can not afford to »lo It. for yonr good name is yonr only capital, aud when that Is blasted with the reputation of taking strong-drink all is gone. Another loss which the inebriate suffora la that of sell -reaped. Just as soon as a mam wakes up and finds that he is the captive of strong drink he [eels demeaned. I do not care how reckless he a<4*> He may say: “! don’t care.” He does care. II* enn not look a pare man in the eye unless it is with positive force of resolution. Three-fourths of his nature is destroyed. His self-respect gone, be eay* things lie wouU! not otherwise say; he does thing* he would not otherwise do.

One of these victims said to a Christian “Sir, if t were told that I couldn't get a drink until to-morrow night unless 1 had aU my fingers cut oft, 1 would says ‘Bring the hatchet and cut them off now.'" 1 hare a dear friend in Philadelphia, whose nephew, dine to him one day, and when he was exhorted about his etil habit, said: “Una)e, 1 can't giro it up. If therestood a eaunbn, and it was loaded, and a glass of wine sat on 'he month of that oaaaon. and 1 kngw yon would fire it off just as I earn* up aud took the glass. I would start, for I must hare it" Oh, it is a sad thing for n man to wake np in this life and feel that hs is a captive. He says: “I could hare got rid of this once, hut 1 can’t now. I might hare lived an honorable life end died a Christian death; but there is no hope tor me now; there is no escape for me. Dead, bat not burled. 1 am a walking eorpee. 1 am an apparition of what I once was. 1 am a caged immortal, beating against the wires of my cage in this direction and in that direction; beating against the cage until there is blood on the wires end blood upon my soul, yet not able to get out. Destroyed, without remedy!” 1 go further, and say that the inebriate suffers from the loss of his usefulness. Do you not recognise the fact that many of those who are now captives of strong drinPonljr a iittle while ago were foremost iu the churches and in reformatory Institutions? Do you not. know that sometimes they knelt in the family circle? Do you not know that they prayed in public, aud some of them carried arouuV the holy wine on sacramental days? Oil, yes, they stood in the very frout rank, but they gradually tell away. And now what do you suppose is the feeling of a man like that, when he thinks of his dishonored vows and the dishonored sacrament—when he thinks of what be might have beeu and of what he is now? Do such meu laugh and seem very merry? Ah, there is, down in the depths of their, soul, a very heavy weight. Do not wonder that they sometimes see strange things, and act very roughly la the household. Ton would not blame them at si! it you knew what they suffer. Do not tell such as that there is no future punishment. Do not tell them there is no such place as hell. He knows thsre is. He is there now! I go on, aud say that the inebriate suffers from the loss of physical health. The older men In thm congregation may remember that surfs years ago Dr. Sewell weut through thislrountry and electrified the people by hj> lectures, in which he showed the effects of alcohol on the human stomach. He had seven or sight diagrams by which hs showed the devastation of strong drink upon the physical system. There were thousands of people that turned bark from that ulcerous sketch, swearing eternal abstinence from every thiug that could intoxicate. God «u1y knows what the drunkard suffers. Paiu flies on every nerve and travels every muscle, and gnaws every bone, and burns with every flame, and stings witii may poison, and polls at him with everjWnture. What reptiles crawl over j his creeping limbs! What Sends stand by his miduight pillow! What groans tear bis car! What terrors shiver trough his soul! Talk of the.rack, talk of the Inquisition, talk of the fuueral pyre, talk of the crushing Juggernaut—he feels them aU at once. Have you ever been in the ward of the hospital where these inebriates are dying, the steuch of their wounds driving back the attendants, their voices sonuding through the uight? The keeper comes up and says: '‘tlush, now. be still I Stop making all this noise!” But it. is effectual only for a moment, for aa swan as the keeper Is gone they begin a;:ain: “Oh, God! oh, God! Help! Help! Rum! Give me rum! Help! Take them off me! Take them off me! Oh, God!” And then they shriek, and they rave.and they pi ick oat their hair by liautlsful,and bite their nails into the quick, aud then they groan, and they shriek and they blaspheme, and they ask the kerper to kill them.

niau Ui^. OJU 'IUPI IU"'. IfitUgtT? (IJC. TuVr the devils off tni>." Oh, it is n« fauey sketch. That thing la guiugon in hospital*, nye, it t* going on in some of the finest residences of erery neigh* orht*od on this continent. It went on lost night while yon slept, and 1 tell you further that this is going U* be the death that some of you will die. I know it. 1 see it romiug. Oh, is there any thing that will so destroy a man for this life and damn him for the life to com-*? I hate that stroug drtuk. With all the concentrated energies of ray soul. X hate it. Do yon tell me that a man can be happy when he knows that he is brcakiuifc his wife's heart and clothiog his children with rags? Why, there are oa the streets of our cities to-day little children barefooted, - uncombed and unkempt, want on every patch of their faded dress, and on every wrinkle of their prematurely old countenances, who would have been in churches to-day, and as well clad as yon are, but for the fact that ram destroyed their parents and drove them tnto the grave. Oh, ram! thou foe of ttod, thon despoiler of homos, thou recruiting affl - cer of the pit. I abhor thee! • Hut my subject takes a deeper tone, ;i»nd that i*. that the inebriate suffers ‘from the loss of the soul. The Bible intimates that in the future world, it we are uaforgiveu here, our bad p issions nud npoetites, unrestrained, sill go nhrag * ilh us and make onr torment there. Ho that 1 suppose when an inebriate wakes up in this lost world he will feel an infinite thirst clawing on him. Now, dowu iu the world, although, be may have been very poor, be could beg or he could steal five cents with which to get that which would slake his thirst for a little while; bat iu eternity, where is the rum to come from? Dives could not get oue drop of water. From what chalice of eternal fires will the hot Ups of the drunkard drain his draught? No one to brew tt No one to tnix it. No one to ponr it. No one to fetch it. Killians of worlds then tor the dregs which the young man just now slnng on the sawdusted floor of the restaurant. Millions of worlds now for the rind thrown out from the punch bowl of an earthly banquet Dives cried tor water. The inebriate cries, for rum. Oh, the deep, exhausting, exasperating, everlasting thirst of Ihe drunkard in hell! Why, it a fiend should comV up to earth for some infernal work in a grog shop, and should go back taking on Its wing jnst one drop of that for which the inebriate in the lost world longs, what excitement it would make there. Put that one drop from off the fiend’s wing on the top of the tougue of the destroyed inebriate; let the liquid brightness jnst touch it, let the drop be vety small if It only have in it the smack of alcoholic drink, let that drop just touch the lost Inebriate in Ihe lost world, and he wonld spring to his feet and cry: “That is mm! aha! that is rum!” and It would wake up the echoes of the damned! “Give me ram! Give me rum! Give me rum!’’ Iu tW future world I do not believe that it will be the absence of God that will make the drunkard's sorrow; I do not believe that it will be the absenoe ofJMit; I do not believe that it will be the aHeuceof holiness; I think it will be the absence of strong drink. Oh.' “Look not upon the wine when it is red. when tt morelh Itself aright in the cop, for at the last, it biteth like a serpent and it stingeth like an adder." But I want, in conclusion, to say one thing personal, for 1 do not like a sermon that has no personalities in it Perhaps this has not had that fault already. I waul to say to those who are the victims of «trong drink that while I declare that there was a point beyond which a man could not stop, I want to tell yea that while a man can not stop in his own strength, the Lord Go d, by His grace, can help him to stop at any time. Tears ago I was in a gpeflfc in New York where ... ■■fir mm Tin had bean redrankonnftti. | heard their leetimony, and for the first time in my there flashed oat a troth I never understood. They said: “We wore victims of strong drink. We vwd » «m SI M. \m **

Try a It U your last chance. I have looked off upon the desolation. Sitting under my ministry there are people in awful peril from ordinary circumstances; there is not one chance in live thousand that they will get clear of it I see men in this congregation of whom I mast make the remark that, if they do not change their course, within ten years they will, as to their bodies. He down in drunkards* graves; and aa to their souls, lie down in n drunkard’s perdition. 1 knots that it U an awful thing to say, bat 1 can’t help saying it Oh, beware! Ton have not yet been captured. Beware! As ye open the door of your wine closet to-day, may that decanter flash oat upon yon: Beware! And when yon pour the beverage Into the glass, in the foam at the top, in white letters, let there be spelled out to yonr soul: “Beware!" When the books of judgment are open, and ten million drank arils come up to get their doom, 1 want you to bear witness that I to-day. in the fear of Ood, and in the love for your soul, told you with nil affection, and with nil kindness, to beware of that which has already exerted its influence upon yonr family, blowing out some of Us lights—a premonition of the blackness of darkness forever. Oh*4f you could only hear this moment, Intemperance, with drunkard’s hones, drumming on the head of the wine cask the Dead March of immortal souls, methinks the very glance of n wine cup would make you shudder, and the color of the liquor would make you think of the blood of the soul, and the foam on the top of the cap would remind you of the froth on. the maniac’s lips, and yon would go home from this service and kneel down and pray Ood that, rather than your children should become captives of this evil habit, you would like l;o carry them out some bright spring day to the cemetery and put them away to the last sleep, until at the last call of the south wind the flowers would come up ait over the grave—sweet prophecies of the resurrection. Ood has a balm for such a wound; but what flower of comfort over grew ou the blasted heath of a drunkard's sepulcher? INSPIRATION OF CHEER. ■alt the Bottle of Life Consists la ten t-P a Cheerful Spirit. When depression comes and the cloud*, when the spirit t* loaded with deadening pain, all work become* a drudgery, and Ufa I* a harden and difllculty. Whatever I* done Is carried on under con Alston, with a wish that It oould be avoided, and a feeling of pleasure—if eo mournful a kind of congratulation can be called a pleasure— that It Is at last completed.# And If— because there Is will-power enough to drive It along, and favorable circumstance* to make it snocessful - K will afford but little satisfaction, for the spirit will be loaded with forebodings, and the mind be full* of the prophecies of coming evil If any good work be well done. It must be amid buoyancy and hope With this experience, no matter how hard the task may be, or how unpromising, there will be energy given to it. and that facility of skill and tact that, unless the hindrances are Invincible, will otrry It thiough to a good end. Our religious work very often lags end falls, not because wo are not In earnest In tt—perhaps we expend unnecessary labor on It— bat because ills done under a cloud Hope Is wanting Thera Is no enthusiasm-no spring and eager oniooktng and vision of Inevitable accomplishment But if the heart is bright. It will be able to go cheerfully through an experience, and also bear Its disappointments, rejoice in its tribulations, and not only believe, but know, that Ood makes all things work together for good to those who love Him. It la not pos-sible-not for all of us—all the time. Moods are many, and we are liable to fall Into dull ones betimes: but It ought to be a part of our effort to drive away the clouds.
