•lightning of THE SEA.” Hev. Dr. Talmage Goes Down to the Deep for a Subject. Xn the Strange S plendor of the Phosphorcacenee ou the Sea's Surface lie finds Fresh Store of God’s Handiwork. The following1 discourse with “The Lightning of the Sea?’ for its subject, was delivered by Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage in the Brooklyn tabernacle, being based on the text. He maketh a. path to shine after Him.—Job XU..S* If for the next thousand years ministers of religion should** preach from this Bible there will yet be texts nnexpounded, and unexplained, and unappreciated. What little has been said concerning this chapter in Job from which my text is taken bears on the •controversy as to what was really the leviathan described as disturbing the «ea. What creature it was 1 know not. ■Some say it was a whale. Some say it waft a crocodile. My own opinion is it was a sea monster now extinct. No -creature now floating in Mediterranean or Atlantic waters corresponds to •Job's description. What most interests me is that as it moved on through the deep it left the waters flashing and resplendent. In the words of the text: “He maketh a path to shine after him." What was that illuminated path? It was'phos „ phorescence. You fiml.it in the wake ' of a ship in the night, especially after rough we ithe$. Phosphorescence is the lightning of the sea. That this figure of speech is correct in distributing its appearance lam certified by an incident. After crossing the Atlantic the first time and writing from Basle, Switzerland, to an American magazine am account of my voyage, in which nothing more fascinated me than the phosphorescence in the ship's wake, I called it the lightning of the sea. Returning to my hotel I found a book of John Ruskin, and the first sentence my eyes fell upon tf-as a description of phosphorescence, in which he called it “The lightning of the sea.” Down to the post ofliee I hastened to get the manuscript, and with great labor and some expense got possession of the magazine article and put quotation marks around that one sentence, although it was as ’original with me as

with John Kuskin. I suppose that nine-tenths of j*ou living so near the sea coast have watched this marine appearance called phosphoresence, and I hope that the other one-tentli may .some day be so happy as to wituess it. It is the waves of the sea diamonded; it is the inflorescence of the billows; the waves of the sea crimsoned, as was the the deep after the sea fight at be panto; ■file waves of the sea on fire.* There are times when from horizon to horizon the entire ocean seems in conflagration with this strange splendor, as it ^changes every moment to tamer or more dazzling color on all sides of you. "Yon sit looking over the taffrail of the yacht or ocean steamer watching and waiting to see what new thing the God of beauty will do with the Atlantic. It is the ocean of transfiguration; it is the •marine world casting its garments of glory in the pathway of the Almighty as He walks the deep; it is an inverted firmanent with all its stars gone down with it No picture can present it. for .photographer’s camera can not be successfully trained to catch it, and before it the hand of the painter drops its pencil oyerawed and powerless. This phosphorescence is the appearance of myriads of the animal kingdom rising, falling, playing, flashing, living, dying. These luminous animalcules for nearly one hundred and fifty .years have been the study • of naturalists and the fascination and solemiza4ion of all who have brain enough to &hink. Now God. who puts in His Bible nothing trivial or useless, calls the attention of Job, the greatest scientist -of his day, to this phosphorescence, and as the leviathan of the deep Sweeps past, points out the fact that *‘He tnaketh a path to shine after him.”

Is that true of us now. iind will it be true of us when we ave gone? Will there be subsequent light or darkness? Will there be a trail of gloom or good •cheer? Can anyone between now and the next one hundred years say of us truthfully as the text says of the leviathan of the deep: “He inaketh a path to shine after him?” For we are moving ou. While ive live in the same house, and transact business at the «ameStore, and write on the same table, anutttiisel in the same studio, and thresh in the same barn, and worship in the same church, we are in motion, and are in many respects moving on, ,nd we are not where we were ten years ago. nor where we will be ten years hence. Moving on! Look .t the family record, or the almanac, or into the mirror, .and see if any one of you is where you ■were. All in motion. Other feet may trip, and stumble, and halt, but the teet of not one moment for the last sixty centuries has tripped, or stumbled, or halted. Moving on! Society oving on! The world moving on! Heaven moving on! The universe >ving on! Time moving on! Eternity moving on! Therefore it is absurd to think that we ourselves can stop, as we must move with all the rest. Are we like the creature of the text., making our path to shine after us? It may be a peculiar question, but any text suggests it. What influence will we leave in this world after we have gone through? “None,” answers hundreds of voices, ■“we are not one of the immortals. Fifty years after we are out of the world it will be as though we never .inhabited it.” You are wrong in saying that. I pass down through this audience and up through these galleries, and I am looking for one who will .bare no influence in this world one hundred years from now. But I have lonnd the man who has the least ini, and I inquire into his history I find that by a yes or a no he de- « one’s eternity. In time of he gave an affirmative or a

negative to some temptation which another, hearing of, was induced to decide in the same way. Clear on the other side of the next million years may be the first you hear of the longreaching influence of that yes or no, but hear of it you will. Will that father make a path to shine after him? Will that mother make a path to shfne after her? You will be wakling along -these streets, or along that i country road two hundred years from now in the character of your descendants. They will be affected by your courage or your , cowardice, your purity or your deprav- | ity, your holiness -or your sin. You I will make the path To shine after you | or blacken after you. Why should | they point out to us on some mountain' i two rivulets, one of which passes down j into the rivers which pour out into the i Pacific ocean and the other rivulet* flowing down into the rivers which pass out into the Alantic ocean? Every man, every woman, stands at a point where words uttered, or deeds j done, or prayers offered, decide op- | posite destinies and opposite eternities. We see a man planting a tree, and treauing the sod firmly on either side of it, and watering it in dry weather, and taking a great care in - its culture, and he never J plucks any fruit from its bough; but his children will. We are all planting trees that will yield fruit hundreds of years after we are dead; orchards of golden fruit, or groves of deadly upas. I am so fascinated with the phosphorescence in the track of a ship that I have sometimes watched for a long while, and have seen nothiug on the face of the deep but blackness. The mouth of watery chasms that looked like gaping jaws of hell. ’ Not a spark as big as a firefly; not a w bite scroll of surf; not a taper to illuminate the mighty sepulchers of dead ships; darkness three thousand feet deep, and more thousands of feet long and wide. That is the kind of wake that a bad man leaves behind him as he plows through the ocean of this life toward the vaster ocean of the great future. Now, suppose a man seated in a corner grocery, or business office among clerks, gives himself to jolly skepticism. He laughs at the Bible, makes sport of the miracles, speaks of perdition in jokes, and laughs at revivals as a frolic, and at the passage of a funeral procession, which always solemnizes sensible people, says:

‘Boys, let s take a drink. there is m that group a young man who is making a great struggle against temptation, and prays night and morning, and reads his Bible, and is asking God for help day by day. But that guffaw against Christianity makes him lose his grip of sacred things and he gives up Sabbath, ifnd church, and morals, and goes from bad to worse, till he falls under dissipations, dies in a lazar house and is buried in the potter’s field. Another j'oung man who heard that jolly skepticism made up his mind that "it makes no difference what we do or say, for we will all come out at last at the right place,” began, as a consequence, to purloin. Some money that came into his hands for others he applied to his own uses, thinking perhaps he would make it straight some other time, and all would be well even if he did not make it straight. He ends in the penitentiary.. That scoffer who uttered jokes against Christianity never realized what bad work he was doing, and he passed on through life, and out of it, and into the future that I am not now going to depict. I do not propose with a searchlight' to show the breakers of the awful coast on which that ship is wrecked, for my business now is to watch the sea after the keel has plowed it. No phosphorescence in the wake of that ship, but behind it two souls struggling in the wave; |wo young men destroyed by reckless^ skepticism: an unillumined ocean beneath, and on all sides of them. Blackness and darkness. You know what a gloriously good man Rev. John Newland was, the most of his life, but before his conversion he was a very wicked sailor, and on board the ship Harwich, instilled infidelity and vice in the mind of a young

man, principles which uestroyeu him. Afterward the two met and Newton tried to undo his bad work, but in vain. The young1 man became worse and worse, and died a profligate, horrifying with his profanities those who stood by him in his last moments. Better look out what bad influence you start, for you may not be able to stop it It does not require very great force to ruin others. Why was it that many years ago a great flood nearly destroyed New Orleans? A crawfish had burrowed into the banks of the river until the ground was saturated, and the banks weakened until the flood bui;st But I find here a man who starts out in life with the determination that he will never see suffering but he will try to alleviate it; and never see discouragement but he will try to cheer it; and never meet with anybody but he will try to do him good. Getting his strength from God, he starts from home with high purpose of doing all the good he can possibly do in one day. Whether standing behind the counter, or talking in the business office with a pen behind his ear, or making a bargain with a fellow-trader, or out in the field discussing with his next neighbor the wisest rotation of crops, or in the shoemaker’s shop pounding sole leather, there is something in his face, and in his phraseology, and in his manner ' that demonstrates the grace of God in his heart”» He can talk on religion without awkwardly dragging it in by the ears. He loves God, and loves the souls of all whom he meets, and is interested in their present and eternal destiny. For fifty or sixty years he lives that kind of life and then gets through with it and goes into Heavqn a ransomed sonl. But I' am not going to describe the port into which that ship has entered. I am not going to describe the pilot who met him outside at the “lightship.” I am not going to say anything about the crowds of friends who

met him on the ervstailin wharves up which he goes on steps of jhrysoprases. For God in His words to Job calls me to look at the path of foa: a in the wake of that ship, and I tell you it is all a-gleam with splendors of kindness done.'and rolling with illumined tears that were wiped away, aid ad ash with congratulations, and clear out to the horizon in all directions is the sparkling, flashing, billowing phosphorescence of a Christian life. “He maketh a path to shine after him ” Have you any arithme ic capable of estimating the influence of our good and gracious friend who a few days ago went up to rest—George W. Childs, of i Philadelphia? From a newspaper that was printed for thirty fyears without one word of defamation or scurrility or scandal, and putting chief emphasis on virtue and charity md clean intelligence, he reaped » fortune for himself and then distr ibuted a vast amount of it among tae poor and | struggling,,puttinghisin ralid and aged i reporters on pensions, u ntil his name stands everywhere, for arge-hearted-ness and sympathy and Jtblp and highest style of Christian gentleman. In an era which had in thi chairs of its journalism a Horace Greeley, and a Henry J. Raymond, and a«James Gordon Bennett, and Erast us Brooks, and a George William *Cu -tis, and an Irenseus Prime, none of them will be longer remembered than George W. Childs. Staying away from the unveiling of the monument he reared at large expense in our Greenwood in memory of Prof. Proetrr, the astronomer. lest I should say something in praise of the man who had paid for the monument. By all acknowledged a representative of the hig.iest American journalism. If you would calculate his influence for good you must count how man}' sheets of his newspapers have „been published in the last quarter of a century, and how many people have read them, and tho effect not only upon those readers, but upon all whom they shall influence for all time, while you add to ali hat the work of the churches he helued build, and of the institutions of mt rcy he helped found. Better give up before you start the measuring of the phosphorescence in the wake of that sh p of the celestial line. Who can tell the post-mor-tem influence of a Savonarola; a Wbaklereid, a Guttenberg, a Marlborough, a Decatur, a Toussaint, a Bolivar, a Clarkson, a Robert Raikes, a Harlen Page, who had one hum red and twen-ty-five Sabbath scholars, eighty-four of whom became Christians and six of them ministers of the Gospel.

1UUIVU wuv- p.iouu u,*rrJl V» VI Jf «uj, and do that for twenty years and you will have made seven thousand three hundred happy. You know a man who has lost all his property by an unfortunate investment, or by putting' his name on the back of a friend’s note? After you have taken a brief nap, which every man and woman is entitled to on a Sunday afternoon, go and cheer up that man. You can, if God helps you^ say something that will do him good after both of you have been dead a thousand years. Shine! You know of a family with a bad boy who has run away from home. Go before night and tell that father. and mother the parable of the prodigal son, and that some of the illustrious and useful men now in ei lurch and state had a silly passage in heir lives and ran away from home. Shine! You know of a family that has lost a child, and ti e silence of the nursery glooms the whole house from cellar to gar -et Go before night and teill them how much that child has happily escaped, since the most prosperous life on earth is a struggle. Shine! You know of some invalid who is dying for lack of an appetite. She can not get well because she can not eat. Broil a chicken and take it to her before night, and cheat her poor * appetite into keen relish. Shine! You know of some one who likes .you, and you like him. and he ought to be a Christian. Go tell him what religion has done for you, and ask him if you can pray for him. Shine! Oh, for a disposition so charged with sweetness and light that we can not help but shine! Remember if you can not be a leviathan lashing the ocean into fury, you can be one of the phosphori, doing your part toward making a path of phosphorescence.’

Then 1 will tell you what impression you will leave when you pass through this life and after you a,re gone. I will tell you to your face', and not leave .it to the minister who officiates at your obsequies. The failure in all eulogium of the departed is that they can not hear it. All hear it except the one most interested. This, in substance, is what I or someone else will say of you on such an occasion: “We gather for offices of respect to this departed one. It is impossible to tell how many tears he wiped away; how many burdens he lifted; or how many souls he was under God instrumental in saving. His influence will never cease We are all better for having known him. That pillow of flowers on the casket was presented by his Sa ibath-school class, all of whom lie brought to Christ. That cross of flowers at the head was presented by the orphan asylum which he befriended. Those three single flowers—one was sei.t by a poor woman for whom he bou jht a ton of coal, and one was by a vaif of the street whom he rescued through the midnight mission, and the oth-' er was from a pi ison ‘ 'cell which he had often visited to encourage repentance in a young man who had done wrong. Those three loose flowers mean quite as much as the costly -garlands now breathing their aroma through this saddened home, crowded with sympathizers. ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord; they rest from tl eir labor, and their works do folkw them.’” Or if it should be the m>re solemn burial at sea, let it be after ,he%un has gone down, and the capta a has read the appropiate liturgy, and the ship’s bell has tolled, and you a -e let down from the stern of the ves *1 into the resplendent phosphoresce! ce at the wake of the ship Then k t some one say, in the words of my te^t: “He maketh a path to shine afti t him.”

WARNER'S SEVERE CRITICISM. fortr Per f»»t Duties on Woolent, Too Mach—Bad Effeetaon Woolen Mills. The criticism of the Wilson biff does not all come from the side of the protectionists. Some of the representatives in congress owe allegiance not so much to the wealthy manufacturers of their districts as to their wage-earning constituents. A few, also besides, being real democrats, are students of economic questions and will not stultify their intellects and their consciences by pretending—as too many so-called democrats do—that protection can ever help wage-earners. Honest, intelligent democrats will declare that protection always injures and never benefits labor. Among those who have severely criticised the wavs and means committee for compromising with the protected interests and monopolies are Tom L. Johnson, of Ohio, and John DeWitt Warner, of New York. The reception accorded to the speeches of both these gentlemen shows that the spirit of true democracy in the house of representatives is arising from its long slumbers, following is a part of Mr. Warner’s criticism of the proposed duties on woolens: “In the first place, sir, it is proposed to give New England the relief that she ought to have in free raw materials, free coal, free iron, free lumber, free wool, free trade, or a reduced tariff upon nearly every material that she uses; and yet it is proposed to leave upon her principal industry, that of wool manufacturing, duties which are not merely scandalous in amount, but far beyond those which upon any consistent theory, even of protection to labor, can be for a moment defended. The duties proposed are generally 40 per cent, upon the classes of woolen goods most used. As to all of these, with free raw materials given them by this very bill, a revenue tariff of 25 per cent.—under which I believe a larger revenue would be collected than under a prohibitive rate—would be most generous protection. *‘I know, sir, that there are men on this floor too, who tell us that if the Wilson bill is passed some wool manufacturing establishments will fail. But I have heard such things before. You will remember that during the campaign of 1888 oUr protectionist friends made great capital of the fact that after having been in bad condition for many years, the campaign year in which the Mills bill was being discussed, witnessed the failure of fifty

acvcu WJUVCLXld 111 bllv wwi biauc, iu- | volving liabilities of $3,687,000. We were told that all this came from the fact that the mere discussion of the question had scared the woolen business to death, but that if Mr. Harrison were elected, general confidence would take charge of the demoralized battalions, and that every wheel of industry would be set running. In my own district, sir, within a few days after election had shown that protection was safe for years to come, the wages,were reduced in the one establishment employing the most workers in wool, and within one year from that date there had gone into liquidation seventy-two concerns, with liabilities of $10,500,0<>0; all of which showed how much more damaging it was to the wool business to have confidence restored under Harrison than to be scared to death bv the Mills bill. “Of course I do not mean to claim that the election of Mr. Harrison did this. The trouble lay far deeper, and is the trouble that is now spreading dry rot amid so large a proportion of the woolen mills of New England; that if a committee of the manufacturers themselves were to take the matter in hand they would close up at once, whether the Wilson bill or the McKinley bill is to rule, a large proportion of the mills on the ground that as business concerns they have no right to existence. The trouble with this industry is that it has become one too largely run by grandsons, but to which the grandfathers, long ago of blessed memory, contributed the last ounce of business enterprise that made it a prosperous one. The trouble is that while wages are not so much higher in

riurope as to jusuiy even a iu per cent, tariff on the total cost of the goods, there are too many cases in which a sinecure treasurer, a member of, and nominated by, the family that owns a large proportion of the stock, is paid a large salary which he does not earn, and in which those owning smaller blocks are permitted to load the accounts of the company by similar charges. The cases are too many where plants, which sound sense would not have permitted to exist, have been erected at enormous cost, and instead of being charged off to profit and loss, are still held as the basis over which it is attempted to stretch dividends that they do not] earn. “No tariff can help troubles like these. If it were raised to 100 per cent, it would simply encourage them to hold on a little while longer, and involve them a good deal deeper in disaster when they found that their shrewder neighbors had forestalled their opportunity. There is no rivalry more demoralizing to legitimate business than that of bankrupt concerns like these. There is no employment more discouraging to the laboring man than that furnished by such institutions, jnst enough to keep him alive and hold him from leaving to better himself, and not enough to keep him prosperous or to afford decent support for his family. The quicker their demoralizing existence is ended the better it will be for every good business naan, for every competent workman, and for every self-supporting American citizen. You cannot adjust the tariff so as to save them. Even if you could they are not worth saving. It is simply impudent that we should be asked to try it. Twenty-five per cent upon the great mass of woolen goods is so much more than enough to make up for the total amount of labor involved that nothing but the fact that we need revenue as badly as we do, and that such is the rate w'lich will probably produce the. most levenue, can for a moment justify the extortion; and no consideration of which I am aware can for a moment excuse oar attempting to go farther, as

is proposed by this bilL And when it is proposed, as this bill proposes, to {five New England cloth manufacturers free raw materials and 40 per cent, duty on their product, and to give New York clothiers raw materials taxed 40 per ceni. and but 45 per cent, duty on their finished product, the mere statement of such a proposition is enough to impeach it.”' HOW LABOR IS PROTECTED. The Pretense That Tariff Protection Bonn* fits Employes Utterly Fraudulent. If this thing called protection were really for the benefit of working people and such a blessing to them as its*, defenders and immediate beneficiaries would have us believe, we would expect to find the position of labor exceptionally strong and its condition exceptionally good. But this is precisely what we do not find. Whenever there is a season of depression, slight or severe, the first and loudest cry of distress comes from those industries that are enjoying to the utmost the alleged benefits of the system of commercial restriction. The crops of the unprotected farmers may be shoft and prices low; there may be depression and thousands may be thrown out of employment in the unprotected buildihg trades; the same may happen in the unprotected business of railway construction. ‘ In such cases we seldom hear of extreme destitution and distress. The men immediately affected have to restrict their indulgence in the comforts and to some extent the necessaries of life, but somehow they manage to exist without making much complaint of poverty and they rarely appeal to public charity. But the moment depression, no matter where or how it may originate, reaches a protected industry, as it always does sooner or later, there is a loud outcry. When a few protected mills shut down or a. few protected mines suspend operations we begin to hear of want and distress and loud calls for relief. The unprotected majority of the people, who have already been forced to contribute in the way of high tariff prices an enormous aggregate for the maintenance of the protected industries, must contribute more to keep the labor employed in these industries from freezing and starving. The unprotected, hard pressed as they may be by the involuntary burdens they have had to carry, assume a voluntary burden for the relief of toilers in industries which are protected upon the pretense of«henefitting labor.

rnisis no tneory, out iact open to common observation. It is not a fact of the existing1 situation merely, but a fact conspicuous in every one of those depressions which are of such frequent recurrence under the system of alleged protection. It cannot be attributed to a prospect of tariff reduction, for it appears quite as plainly when there is no such prospect. It is a fact which stamps the whole system as a monstrous imposition and a fraud. And it is easily accounted for by an| one who will take the trouble to think. The system imparts an unhealthy stimulus to the pampered industries by holding out the promise of great profits and vast fortunes quickly amassec^ Excessive production naturally results, necessarily followed by restriction, reduction of wages or time, and a wholesale discharge of workmen. Then, when stocks are exhausted there is excessive production again under the same unnatural stimulus. And so it goes. There is a continued ague. Alternating shakes and fever in the coddled industries Under such conditions the average of wages is lower than in the self-reliant industries^ employment is more fitful, and the wqrkmen are not so well prepared to bear temporary reverses The pretense that tariff protection benefits those who work for wages is utterly fraudulent. It has not a leg to stand on. The whole system is born of greed. The employer takes the whole loaf of cake and eats it in his castle while the employe stands outside the moat and begs in vain for his promised slice.—Chicago Herald.

The Wilson Hill. It is, as Mr. Wilson said, a moderate measure. It was framed with a sincere desire to deal justly with the whole country. It aimed to relieve industries and consumption of oppressive burdens without disturbing- diastrously the conditions loner fostered by the government. It therefore became, as its framers frankly admitted, a protective measure. It is a higher tariff thoSif Henry Clay thought necessary for the protection of infant industries fifty years ago. It is higher than the Morrill tariff of 1862. It is a less average reduction of. a 50 per cent, tariff than the republican tariff commission of 1882 recommended in a 40 per cent tariff. It is. only in comparison with tl\e McKinley monstrossity, which the people have twice condemned by more than 1.300,000 majority each time, that the Wilson bill seems a reform measure. The democratic party is prepared to repeal McKinleyism, and the Wilson bill Joes it It leaves to labor and to capital all the protection that they need. It deserves the united support of the party in congress. It will if enacted put the democracy in the way-oi another victory in 1S96.—N. Y. World. False Promises. The reduction of wages in all the Yew England mills and the total susjjension of some of them is not a redemption of Mr. McKinley’s promises made before his bill was passed. The occasion is said to be the depressed condition of the market and cessation of demand. It was understood by the western farmers that these manufactures were to afford them a never-fail-ing market for their wheat and corn, while on the other hand, the workers in the factories were assured that the farmers would take all the cloth manuf acturered and save the trouble of going to new markets in the outbids world. But these promises have not been kept. The weavers want bread and the farmers want clothes, bute neither can get what they need. The exchange cannot be made. The high tariff! tes should explain this.—Exchange*
