HELPFUL CHURCHES. Rev. T. DeWitt Talks on the Christianity of To-Day. What the Church Needs to Be to Fulflll Its MU*Ion—A Great, Practical, Homely, Omnipotent Help to Mankind.

The following discourse on “Helpful ’Churclles'’ was delivered by Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage in the Brooklyn tabernacle, from the text: Send the help from the sanctuary.—Psalms xx.. 2. If you should ask fifty men what the church is, they would give you fifty different answers. One man would say: “It is a convention of hypocrites.” Another: “It is an assembly of people who feel themselves a great deal better than others.” Another: “It is a place for gossip, where wolverine dispositions devour each other.” Another. “It is a place for the cultivation of superstition anil cant.” Another: “It is an arsenal where theologians go to get pikesand muskets and shot.” Another: “It is an art gallery, where men go to admire grand arches, and exquisite fresco, and musical warble, and the Ilantesque in gloomy imagery.” Another man would say: “It is the best place on earth except ray own home. If I forget thee. Oh, Jerusalem! let my right band forget her cunning.” ' Now, my friends, whatever the church is, my text tells you what it ought to be; a great, practical, homely, omnipotent help. “Send thee help from the sanctuary.” The pew ought to yield restfulness to the body. The color of the upholstery ought to yield pleasure to the eye. The entire service ought to yield strength for the moil and struggle of everyday ■'life. The Sabbath ought to be harnessed to an the six days of the week, drawing them in the right direction. The church ought to be a magnet, visibly and mightily affecting all the homes of the worshipers. Every man gets roughly jostled, gets abused, gets cut, gets insulted, gets slighted, ■ gets exasperated. By the time the Sabbath comes, he has an accumulation of six days’ annoyance.and that is a starveling church service which has not strength enough to take that accumulated annoyance and hurl it into perdition. The business man sits down in church headachy from the week's' engagements. Perhaps he wishes he had tarried at home on the lounge with the newspapers and the slippers. That man wants to be cooled off, and graciously diverted. The first wave of the religious service ought to dash clear over the hurricane decks and leave him dripping with„ holy and glad add heavenly emotion. “Send thee help from the sanctuary.” In the first place, sanctuary help ought to come from the music. A woman dying in Europe persisted in singing to the last moment. The attendants tried to persuade her to stop, saying it would exhaust her and make her disease worse. She answered: “I must sing: I am only practicing for the Heavenly choir.” Music on earth is a rehearsal for music in Heaven. If you and I are going to take part in that great orchestra it is high time that we were stringing and thrumming our harps. They tell us that Thalberk and Gottschalk never would go into a concert until they had first in private rehearsed, although ..they were such masters of the instrument. And can it be that we expect to take a part in the great oratorio of Heaven if we do not rehearse here? But I am not speaking of the next worid. Sabbath song ought to be set all the week to music. We want not more harmony, not more artistic expression, but more volume in our church music. Now, f ammo-worshiper of noise, but I believe that if our American churches would, with full heartiness of soul and full emphasis of voice, sing the songs of Zion this part of sacred worship would have tenfold more power than it has now. Why not take this -part of dhe sacred Service and lift it to where it ought to be? All the annoyances of life might be drowned out of that sacred song. Do you tell me that it is

•noi lasmonaoie ui sing- very louaiy r Then, I say, away with the ■fashion. "We dam back the great Mississippi of •congregational singing, and let a few •drops <of melody trie We through the •dam. 1 say take away the dam and let "the billows roar on their way to the ooeanic heart of God. Whether it 16 fashionable to sing loudly or not, let ns sing with all possible emphasis. We 'hear a great deal of the art of singing, of music as an entertainment, of music as a recreation. It is high time we heard something of music as a help, a practical help. In order to do this vv.e must only hare a few hymns. New tunes and new hymns every Sunday make poor congregational singing. Fifty hymns are enowgtk for fifty years. The Episcopal church prays the same prayers every Sabbath, and year after year, itad century after century. For that reason they have the hearty responses. Let us take a hint from that fact, and let us sing the same songs Sabbath after Sabbath. Only in that way can we come to the full force of this exercise. Twenty thousand years •will not wear out the' hymns of William Cowper, and Charles Wesley, and Isaac Watts. Suppose, now, each person in this audience has brought all the annoyances of the last three hundred and sixty-five days. Fill this room to the eeiling with saered eoBg and you would drawn out all those annoyances of the three hundred and sixty-five days, and you would drown them out forever. Organ and cornet are only to marshal the voice. Let the voice fall into line and in companies and in brigades, by storm take the obduracy and sin of the world- If you can not sing tor yourself, sing for others. By trying to give others good cheer you will bring good cheer to your own heart. When Londonderry, Ireland, was besieged many years ago, the people inside the city were famishing, and a vessel came up with provisions, but the

vessel ran on the river bank and stuck fast. The enemy went down with laughter and derision to board the vessel, when the vessel gave a broadside fire, .against the enemy, and by the shock was turned back into the stream, and all was well. O, ye who are high and dry on the rock of melancholy, give a broadside .fire of song against your spiritual enemies, and by holy rebound you will come out into the calm waters. If we want to make ourselves happy, we must make others happy. ‘ "Mythology tells us of Ampliion, who played his lyre until the mountains were moved and the walls of Thebes arose; but religion has a mightier story to tell of how Christian song may build whole temples of eternal joy. and lift the .round earth into sympathy with the skies. I tarried many nights in London, and I \ised to hear the bells, the small bells of the city,' strike the hour of night— one, two, three, four, and after they were done striking the hour of night, then the great St. Paul’s Cathedral would come in to mark the hours, making all the other sounds seem utterly insignificant as with mighty tongue it announced the hour of the night, every stroke an overmastering boom. >ly friends, it was intended that all the lesser sounds of the world should be drowned out in the mighty tongue of congregational song beating against the gates of Heaven. Do you know how they mark the hours in Heaven? They have no clocks, as they have no candles, but a great pendulum of hallelujah swin ging across Heaven from

eternity to eternity,. Let those refuse to stair Who hever knew our God: But children of the Heavenly Kin* Should speak their joy abroad. Again I Remark that sanctuary help ought to come from the sermon. Of a thousand people in this or any other audience, liow many want sympitthetic help? Do you guess a hundred? Do you guess five hundred? You have guessed wrong. I will tell you just the proportion. Out of a thousand people in this audience there are just one thousand who need sympathetic help. These young people want it'just as much as the old. The old people sometimes seem to think they have a monopoly of the rheumatisms, and the neuralgias, and the headaches* and the physical disorders of the world; but I tell you there are no worse heartaches than are felt by some of these young people; Do you know that much of the work is done by the young? Raphael died at thirty-seven: tlustavus Adolphus die*d at thirty-eight; Innocent III. came to his inighticst influence at thirty-seven: Cortes conquered Mexico at thirty; Don John won Lapanto at twenty-five; Grotius was at-torney-general at twenty-four; and I have noticed all classes of men that some of the severest battles and the toughest work comes before thirty. Therefore we must have our sermons and our exhortation in prayer meeting all sympathetic with the young. And so with these people further on in life. What do these doetors and lawyers and merchants and mechanics care about the abstractions of our religion? What they want is help to bear the whimsicalities of patients, the browbeating of legal opponents, the unfairness of customers, who have plenty of fault-finding for every imperfect of handiwork, but no praise for twenty excellences. What does that brain-racked, hand-blistered man eare for Zwingle's “Doctrine of Original Sin,” or Augustine's “Anthropology?” You might as well go to a man who has the pleurisy and put o n his side a plaster made out of Dr. Parr’s “Treatise on Medical Jurisprudence.” While all of a sermon may not be helpful alike to all, if it be Christian sermon, preached by a Christian man, there will be help for-everyone somewhere. We go into an apotlieearestore. We see others being waited on; we do not complain because we do not immediately get the medicine; we know our turn will come after awhile1. And so while all parts of a sermon may not be appropriate to our ease, if we wait prayerfully before the sermon is through we shall have the Divine prescription. I soy to these young men who come here Sabbath by Sabbath, and who are going to preach the Gospel, these theological students—I say to them, we want in our sermons not more metaphysics, nor more imagination, nor more logic, nor more 'profundity. What we want in our sermons and Christian exhortations is more sympathy. When Father Taylor preached in the Sailors’ Bethel at Boston, the jack-tars felt that they had help for their duties among the ratlines and the forecastles. When Richard Weaver preached to the operatives in Oldham, England, all the workingmen felt they had rhore grace for the spindles. When Dr. South preached to kings and princes and princesses all the mighty men and women who heard him felt preparation for their high station.

Again I remark, that sanctuary help ought to come through the prayers of all the B&ople. The door of the sternal storehouse is hong on one hinge, a gold hinge, the hinge of prayer, and when *the whole audience lay hold of that door it must come open. There are here many people spending their first Sabbath after some great bereavement. What will your prayer do for them? How will it help the tomb in that man’s heart? Here are people who have not been to church before for ten years; what will your 'prayer do for them by rolling over their soul hply memories? Here are people in crises ,©f .awful temptation. They are on the verge of despair, or wild blundering, or theft or suicide. What will your prayer do for them this morning in the way of giving them strength to resist? Will you be chiefly anxious about the fit of the glove that you put to your forehead while you prayed? Will you be chiefly critical of the rhetoric of the pastes petition? No. No. A thousand people will feel “that prayer is for me," and at every step of the prayer chains ought to drop off, and temples of sin ought to crush into dust, and jubilees of deliver

t I *nee ought to brandish their trumpets. In most of our churches we hare three prayers—the opening- prayer, what is called the “long prayer,” and the closing- prayer. There arc many people who spend the first prayer in arranging their appr.rel after entrance, and spend the second prayer, the “long prayer,” in wishing it were through, and spend the last prayer in preparing to start for home. The most insignificant part of every religious service is the sermon. The most important parts are the Scripture lesson and the prayer. The sermon is only a man talking to a man. The Scripture lesson is God talking to man. Prayer is man talking to God. Oh, if we understood the grandeur and the pathos of this exercise of prayer, instead of being a dull exercise, we would imagine that the room was full of Divine and angelic appearances. But. my friends, the olrt style church will not do the work. We might as well now try to take all the passengers from Albany to Buffalo by canal-boat, or do all the battling of the world with bow and arrow, as with the old style of church to meet the exigencies of this day. Unless the church-in—eur day will adapt itself to the time, it will become extinct. The people reading newspapers and books all the week, in alert, picturesque and resounding style, will have no patience with Sabbath humdrum. We have no objections to bands and surplice, and all the paraphernalia of clerical life; but these things make no impression—make no more impression on the great masses of the people than the ordinary business suit that you wear in Wall street. A tailor can not make a minister. Some of the poorest preachers wear the best clothes; arid many a backwoodsman has dismounted from the saddle-bags, and in his linen duster preached a sermon that shook earth, and Heaven with its Christian eloquence. No new Gospel, only the old Gospel in a way suited to the time. No new church, but a church to be the asylum, the inspiration, the practical sympathy and the eternal help of the

people. But while half of the doors of the church are to be set open toward this wgrld, the other half of the doors of the church must be set open toward the next. You and I tarry here only a brief space. We want somebody to teach us how to get out of this life at the right time and in the right way. Some fall out of life, some go stumbling out of life, some go groaning out of life, some go cursing out of life. We want to go singing, rising, rejoicing, triumphing. We want half the doors of the church set in that direction. We want half the prayers that way,half the sermons that way. We want to know how to get ashore from the tumult of this world into the land of everlasting peace. We do not want to stand doubting and shivering when we go away from this world; we want our anticipations aroused to the highest pitch. We want to have the exhilaration of a dying .child in England, the father telling me the story. When he said to her, "Is the path narrow?" she answered, “The path is narrow; it is so narrow that I can not walk arm in arm with Christ; so Jesus goes ahead, and lie says. Mary, follow.’” Through these church gates set heavenward how many of your friends ami mine have gone? The last time they were out of the house they came to church. The earthly pilgrimage ended at the pillar of public worship, and then they inarch out to a bigger and brighter assemblage. Some of them were so old they could not walk without a cane or two crutches; now they have eternal juvenescence. Or they were so young they could not walk except as the maternal hand guided them: now they bound with the hilarities celestial. The last time we saw them they were wasted with malarial or pulmonic disorder; but now they have no fatigue, and no difficulty of respiration in the pure air of Heaven. How I wonder when you and I will cross over! Some of you have had about enough of the thumping and flailing of this life. A draught from the fountains of Heaven would do you good. Complete release you could stand very well. If you got on the other side, and had permission to come back, you would not come. Though you were invited to come back and join your friends on earth you would say: “No, let me tarry here until they come; I shall not risk going back; if a man reaches Hea ven he had better stay there.” Oh, I join hands with you this morning in that uplifted splendor.

When the shore is won at last, Who wi|l count the billows past? In Freybourg, Switzerland, there is the trunk of a tree four hundred years old. That tree was planted to commemorate an event. About ten miles from, the city the Swiss conquered the Burgundians, and a young man wanted to take the tidings to the city. He took a tree branch and ran with such speed the ten miles that when he reached the city waving the tree branch he had only strength to cry, “Victory!” and dropped dead. The tree branch that he carried was planted, and it'grew to be a great tree twenty feet in circumference, and the remains of it are there to this day. My hearers, when you have fought your last battle with sin and death and hell, and they have been routed in the conflict, it will be a joy worthy of celebration. Von will fly to the city and cry “Victory!” and drop at the feet of the great King, Then the palm branch of the earthly race will be planted to become the out-branching tree of everlasting rejoicing. When shall these eyes thy Heaven-built walls And pearly gates behold. Thy bulwarks with salvation strong, And streets with shining gold. —There are no times in life when opportunity, the chance to be and to do, gathers so richly about the sonl as when it has to suffer. Then everything depends upon whet her the man', turns to the lower or higher helps. If he turns to God, it is the hour of Ills lift— Brooks.

Vast Power of'the Atmosphere. Somebody has made the calculation that, taking th e quantities roughly and in round numbers, the atmosphere weighs about a ton to every square fopt of the earth’s surface, 35,000.000 tons per square mile, or 5,000,000,000,000,000 tons on the total of 300,000.000 square miles; a nd its energy is that due to the motion of this inconceivable mass, at velocities varying all the way from the slightest zephyr to the hurricane and the cyclone, rushing over the prairie or along the surface of the sea at more than one hundred miles an hour. Again, according to this authority, a cubic mile of air. weighing i bout ten billion pounds, develops, at the rate of motion of the cyclone, some 4,000,000,000,000 _ “foot-tons” of energy, and if all were employed at such rate for the performance of work, useful or destructive, this number of “footpounds” would be equivalent to more than 3,000,000,000,000,000 horse power. -r-N.
