The Homelhe Fireside and the Church A Vivid Picture oi the Different Phases of the Fleeting? Human Life, fcev Dr. TaJulage preach III the Brooklyn Tatjrnatle last. Sunday. Subeofe 'Otket Days Lived Orar.'' Text, feut , viii.,2. He said: I want to bind in one sheaf aU your past advantages, and I want te bind in another abeaf all yoWbt arjverfiities. It is a precious harvest, and I must be

eantioned how I swing the scythe. Among the greatest advantages of your p'aat life was an early home and its surroundings. The bad men of the day, lor the most part, dip their heated paesione out of the boiling spring of an unhappy home. . We are not surprised to find that Byron's heart was a concentration of sin, when we hear , his

motcer was abandoned and that she

! made sport of his infirmitv, and often called him "the lame brat.7' He who has vicious parents has to fight every inch of his way if he would maintain hia integrity, and at l ist reach the home of the good in heaven. Perhaps your early home wag in the

city. It may have been in the days when Canal 6treet, New York, was far up town, and the site of . this present church was an excur&ion into the country. That old house in the city may have been demolished or changecl into stores, and it seemed like sacrilege to you, for ib ere was. more meaniug in that plain house, in that small house, than there is in a granite mansion or a tnrreted cathedral. Looking back this morning yon see it as though it were yesterday the sitting room, where the loved ones sat by the plain Irzudlight, the mother at the evening stand, the brothers and sisters, perhaps 1 ng ago gathered into the skies, then plotring mischief on the floor or under the

table, your father with a. firm voice commanding a silence that listed half a minute. Oh, those were good dayf! Jf you had your foot hurt, your mother always had a soothing salve to heal it If von were wronged in the street, your father

was always ready to protect you. The vear was one round of frolic and mirth. Your greatest trouble was like an A pril shower, more sunshine than shower. The heart had not been ransacked by troubles, nor had sickness broken it, and no lamb had a warmer shddpfold than the home in which vour childhood

nestled.

Perhaps you were brousbt up in the country; . You stand now to-day in memory under the old tiee. "You clubbed it for fruit that was not quit e ripe became you couldn't wait, any longer. You hear the brook rumbling along over the pebble. You step again into the furrow where you r father m his shirt tleeves shouted to the laty oxen. Y on frighten the swallows from the raftets of the barn, and take just one egg, and silence your conscience by saying they won't miss it. You take a drink again out of the very bucket that the old well

fetched up. You go for the cows at night, and find them wagging their heads through the bars. Of times in the dusty and busy streets you wish you were home again on that cool grass, or in the rag carpeted hall of th.8 farmhouse, through which there was the breath of new mown hay or the blossom of buckwheat. , Yon may '.have in your windows now beautiful plants and flowers brought across the seas, but not one of them stirs in your soul so much charm and memory as the old ivy and yellow sunflower that stood sentinel along the garden wall, and the forget-me-nots play hide-and-seek mid the long grass. The .father, who used to come in, sunburnt from the fields, and sit down on the door-6ill and wipe the sweat from his brow may have gone to his everlasting rest. The mother, who used to sit at the door a little bent over, cap and spectacles on, her face mellowing wit h the vicissitudes of many years, may have put down her gray head in the pillow in the valley, but forget that home you never will. Have you thanked God for it? Have von rehearsed all these blessed reminiscence? Oh, thank God for a Christian

father; thank God for a Christian mother; thank God for an early Christian alter at which you were taught to kneel; thank God for an ear ly Christian home' I bring to mind another passage in the history of your life. They day came when yon set up your own household. Fhe days passed along in quiet blessedness. You twain sat at the table morning and night and talked over your plans for the future, . The most insignif? icant affair in your life became the subfeet of mutual consultation and advisement. You were so happy you felt you could never be any happier. One day a dark cloud hovered over your dwelling and it got darker and darker, but but of that cloud, the shinning messengers of God descended to incarnate an immortal spirit. Two little feet started on an eternal journey, and you were there to lead them a gem to flash in heaven's coronet, and you to polish it; eternal ages of light and darkness watching the starting out of a newly created creature. You rejoiced and you trembled at the responsibility that in your possession an immortal treasure was placed. You prayed and rejoiced, and wept and wondered; you were earnest in supplication that you might lead it through life into the kingdom of God. There was a tremor in your earnestness. There was a double interest about that home. There was an additional interest, why you should stay there and be faithful, and when in a few months your house was filled with the music of the child's

laughter, you were struck through with

the fact that you had a stupendous

mission.

Have you kept that vow? Have you neglected any of these duties? Is your home as much to you as it used to be? Have those anticipations been gratified? God . help you to-day in your solemn reminiscence, and let His mercy fall upon your soul if your kindness has been ill-requited. God have mercy on tne parent on the wrinkles of whose face ia written the. story, of .a child's sin. God have mercy on the mother who, in addition to her other pangs, has the pangs of a child's iniquity. Oh , there are many, many sad sounds in this sad world, but the saddest sound that is ever heard is the breaking of a mother's heart. Are there any here wbo remember that in that home they were unfaithful? Are there those who wandered off from that early home, and left the mother to dis with a broken heart? Oh I stir that reminiscence to-day, I find another point in your life history. You found one day you were in the wrong road; yon couldn't sleep at night; there was just one word that seemed to sob through your banking

bouse, or through you romce, or through

been a backslider? God help you. This day kneel at the foot of mercy and start again for heaven Start to-da As yoli started then. I rouso your soul by that reminiscence. But f mujt not spend auv niOre of my time in going over the advantages of ?our life. Irhustput them all iti one great sheaf, and I wrap them Up in your memory vltii oils loilc! bar Vest song, sutili &3 the reapers sing. Praise trie Lord, ye blood bought immortals of earth! Praise the Lord, ye crowned spirits of heaven! But Eorae of you have not always had a smooth life. Some of you are now iu the shadow. Others had their troubles Vears ago; you. are a mere wreck of what

you once were, i must gat tier up the sorrows of your past life. But how shall I do it? You say that is impossible, as you have had bo many

troubles and adversities. Then I will just take two the first trouble and the last trouble. As when you

are walking, along the strep?,., and there has been music in the distance, you unconsciously find Touraf Ives keeping stop to the music, so when you started life your very life wras a musical time-beat. The air "was full of joy and hilaritv: with the bright, clear Gar yon

made the boat skip; yoa went, on, and life grew brighter until after awhile suddenly a voice rem heaven aid, .'Halt!" and quick as the timshine you halted; you grew pale, you confronted your first sorrow. You had no idea that the flush on your child's cheek wTas an unhealthy flush. You said it can't be any thing serious. Death in slippered

feet walked rcuud about the cradle. You did not hear the tread; but after a while the truth flashed on yos. You walked the floor. Ohy.ityou could, with your strong, stout hand, have wrenched that child from the destrover, You

went to your room and you said, "God, save my child! God, save my child." The world seemed going out in darknees. You said. ll can't bear it. w You felt as if yon could not put the long iashes over the briebt eyes, never to see them again sparkle. Oh, if you could have liken that little one in your arms and with it leaped the grave, how gladly 3'ou would have done it! Oh, if you could let your property go, your bouses go, your land and your sicrehoiue go, how gladly you would have allowed them to depart if you could only have kepttfaat one treasure! But one day there arose lroru the heavens a chill blast that swept over the bedroon, and instant! v all the liurht

her life ol b elf -sacrifice lor, God, dying

in tho cabin of the ship in the harbor of

St. Helena, wae: ,rt always did love the Lord Jesus Christ' And then, the historian sa3'Sj she fell into a sound sleep for ah hour, and woko amid tho songs of angels. I place, lite dying reminiscence Of Augustus Cjosar against the dying remihiscence of the Apostle Paul. The dying reminiscence or! AugUBt us Cisar was, addressing his attendants:. "Have 1 p?ayed my part well on the stage of life?" and they answered in the affirmative; an I he sai.d "Why, then, don't 'ou apfaiaud me? V Tho dying reminiscence of Paul the Apostle was: ?f have fought a good fight, J have kept tho faith; henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of

righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous J-jrige, will give me in that day, and not to me only, but to all them that love His appearing" Augustus

Co3ar died amid pomp and great nirreu tidings, Paul uttered his dying reminiscence looking up through the wall of a dungeon. God grant that our last hour may be the closing of a useful life and the opening of a glorious eternity.

your shop, or your bedroom, and that word was "Eternity." Y'on said, "I am not ready for it. O God, have mercy !" The Lord heard. Peace came to your heart. In the breath of the hill and the waterfall's dash you heard the voice of God's love; the clouds and the trees hailed you with gladness; you came into the House of God. You remember how your hand trembled as you took up t he cup of the Com? munion. You remember the old minister who consecrated it, and you remember the church officials who. carried it through the aisle; yon, remember the old people who at the close of the service took your hand in theirs in congratulating sympathy, as much as to say: "Welcome home, you lost prodigal:" and though those hands are all w itheredaway, that Communion -Sabbath is resurrected this moraine; it is Tesurrected with all its prayers, and songs, and tears, and sermons, and tranefigu ration, BEaveyinkept. those vows?

thick, murky, impsnetrable, shuddering

darnue8B. ut (.-rod didn't leave you there, Mercy epoke. As you took up theoup, and was about to pat it to your lips, God said, "Let it pass' and ftiithwith, as by the hand of angels, another cup was pnt into your, hands; it was the cup oi God's consolation. And as yon have sometimes lifted the head "of a wounded soldeir,and poured winemtohis Hps, so God put his left arm under your head.and with his right hand He poured into your lipa the wine of His commit and His consols tion.and you looked at the empty cradle and looked and looked at your broken heart, and you looked at the Lord's chastisement, and you said "Even so, Father, for so it seemeth good in thv sight."

Ah, it was your fir t trouble. How did you eet over 'it? God comforted you. You have been a better man ever since You have been a better woman ever since. In the jar of the closing eats of

the sspulcher you heard the clanging of the opening gate of heaven, and you felt an irresistible drawing heavenward... Yon have been purer of mind ever since that night when the little one for the last time put its arms around your neck and said; "Good night, papa; good night mamma. Meet me in heaven." But I must come on down to your latest sorrow. What was it? Perhaps it was your own sickness. The child's tread on the stair, or the tick of the watch on the stand disturbed you. Through the long weary days you counted the flgureB in the carpet or the flowers on the wall paper. Oh, the weariness, the exhaustion! Oh, the burning pangs! Would God it were morning, would God it were night, were your frequent cry. But you are better, perhaps even well. Have you thanked that God to-day that you can come put m the fresh air; that ....you are in this place to hear God's name, and to sing God's praise, and implore God's help, and to ask God's forgiveness? Bless the Lord who healeth all our diseases and

.redeem.eth our lives from destruction.

Perhaps your last sorrow was a linancial embarrassment. I congratulate some of you on your lucrative profession or occupation, or ornate appeal, on a commodious residence every thipg you put your hands to seems to turn to gold. But there are others of you like the ehip on which Paul sailed, where two seas met, and you are broken by the violence of the waves. By an unadvised indorsement or by a conduction of unforeseen events, or by fire, or storm, or a senseless panic, you have been flung headlong, and where you oue. dispensed great charities now you have hard work to make the two ends meet. Have you forgotten to thank God for your days, of prosperity, and that through your trials some of you have made investments which will continue after, the last bank of this world has exploded, and the silver and the gold are molten in the tires of the molten wrorld? Have you, amid your losses and discouragements, forgot that there was rebad on your table this morning, and that there shall be a shelter for your head from the storm, and there is air for your lungs, and blood for your heart, and light for your eyes, and a glad and glorious religion for your soul? s Perhaps your last trouble was a bereavement. That heart which in childhood was your refuge, the parental heart, and which has been a source of the quickest sympathy ever since, has suddenly become : silent forever, and now, sometimes, whenever in sudden annoyance and without deliberation, you say, "I will go and tell mother," the thought flashes on you, "I have no mother;" oi the father, with voice less tender, but. as stanch and earnest and loving as ever, watchful of all your ways, exultant over your success without saying much, although the old people do talk it over by themselves, his trembling hand on that staff which you now keep as a family relic, his memory embalmed in. grateful hearts, is taken away forever. Or, there was your companion in life, sharer of your joys and sorrows, taken, leaving the heart an old ruin, where the chill winds blow over a wide wilderness of desolation, the sands of the desert driving across the place wThich once bloomed like the garden of God. And Abraham mourns for Sarah at the cave of Machpelah. Going along your path in life, suddenly, right before you was an open grave. ., People looked down and they Baw it was only a few feet deep and a lew feet wide, but to you it was & cavern down which went all" your hopeu and all your expectations. But cheer up in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, the comforter. He is not going to ; forsake you. Did the Lord take that child out of your arms? Why, he is going to shelter it better than you could. He is going to array it in a white robe, and with, palm branches it will bo all leady to greet you at your coming home. Blessed the broken heart that Jesus heals. Blessed the importunate cry that Jesus compassionates. Blessed the weeping eye from which the isoft hand of Jesus wipes away the tear. But these reminiscences reach only to this morning. There will yet be one more point of tremendous reminiscence, and that is the last hour of life, when we have to look over all our past existence. What a moment that will be! I place Napoleon's dying reminiscence on St. Helena beside Mrs. Judson's dying reminiscence in the harbor of. .86. Helena, the same island, twenty years after. Napoleon's dying reminiscence was one of delirium: "Head of the army." Mrs, Judson's dying reminiscence," M she came home from her missionary toil md

Now .that the centennial ball is over, says a New York dispatch, people who paid from $10 to 25 apiece to participate in it, and whose fun was represented by the figure L, are taking out the balance in criticism. The tongues of the ballgoers were blistered with fault-finders. On. all sid-38 it was conceded that the centennial ball was the biggest executive failure oi the century. People who were mosi f competent to speak, were loudest in declaring the ball a monu

ment of incapacity and vulgarity. As Mr. Ward McAllister read his private dispatches in his Washington retreat, a complacent smile overspread and soft

ened his features. The scenes in the supper-i Dom cannot be described safely in a nev.spaper. Never since the palace of the T alienee was invaded in 1779 by the 6ame culottes of the Seine department hr ve such startling contrasts been witnessed in a similar circumstances. When it is said that the waiters, policemen and messenger boys drank m ost of the frs,e champagne, the situation at midnight might be suggested. Justices of the Supreme Court, Governors, staff officers, club men, lawyers, poets, millionaires, with beautiful and

refined women crowded blankly along the sapper counter and demanded in vain the attention they were accustomed to receive. The functionaries a found the place showed undisguised contempt for the "free lunch fiends." Waiters who did not have to account for t he unlimited wine took occasion to neglect guests and treat themselves. The excellent supper was largely wasted. There was no responsibity for anything to anybody. The "gentlemen's dining room" idea was shown to be an utter fallacy.,. By 12:30 a. m. the supper room had been given over to people whose ideas of enjoyment had been learned in free and-easy resorts. Drunken men invaded

the ball room, flourishing bubbling bottles of champagne. In the corridors free lights were of constant occurrence. Gamblers, book-makers and women dozed or made merry on the staircases. Never once did an accredited ofticer of the evening interfere to anybody's

The policemen who were helpless. They the dress-coated waiters

from the guests. By 1 o'clock most of the respectable element were making frantic and supperless efforts to get away. Even this privilege was denied thera, A line extending from the coat rooms for 500 yards, and made up of some of the leading citizens of this town, surged for hours against the feeble and inadequate partitions of tho coat-room. Gentlemen grew angry and desperate at the utter inadequacy of the arrangements. With torn coats and wrmkled shirt fronts, men whose names are known all over the Union, fought thei rway. towar 1 their coats under the frequent clubs of the police,, the jeers of tho mob outside, and the; pernicious activity of the pickpockets. It was 5 o'clock in the morning before tho last battered and ragged guest joined his family at the doors and reached his hack. ..... The ticket-taaers had no checked placed upon them and there is no question they made lots of money letting in people who never should have been there. The policemen lost their temper completely and cleared people out of their clubs. Hundreds of bottles with wine were passed out of doors and sold by waiters and others. One man was drunk, fell don stairs and was so badly hu rt he had to be carried off in an ambulance. Many flags and potted plants were stolen, and some of the boxes were shockingly soil fid after their first occupauts had left. The supper-room was cleared by clubs shortly after 1 o'clock. The lights were turned out in the ballroom long before the crowd had left the building. ..Plain. Words About Peking, Pall Mall Gazette. Above all other characteristics, however, of Peking one thing stands out in horrible prominence, and I have put. this off to the last. Not to mention ft would be to omit tne most striking color of the picture. I mean its filth. It is tae moBt horribly and indescribably fdthy place that can be imagined. Indeed, imagination must fall far Bhort of the fact. Some of the daily sights of "he pedestrian in Peking could not hirdly be more than hinted at by one man to another in the smoking-room. There is no sewer or cesspool, public or private, but the street; the dog the pig, and the fowl are the scavengers; every now and then you pass a man who goes alorig tossing the most loathsome of the refuse into an open work basket on his back; the smells are sim ply awful; the city; is one colossal and nncleaned cloaca. As I have said above, the first of iihe two moments of delight vouchsafed to every visitor to the Celestial capital is Ins first sight of it. The second though I must

one of the pleisantest and most instructive fortnights of my life is when he turns his back, noping that it may be forever, upon "the body and lioul stinking town" (the words are Coleridge's) of Peking. BASE BALL RTCCOXtl).

aid made a quick passage, and arrived first, He nut the price of it into the expense account of the trip, but Mr. Aster threw it out, insisting that such an item of expense for new fangied notions could not b s allowed. The Captain thereupou resigned and took service with a rival line. The next year he reached port long in advance of any competitor, to the great delight and profit of his employers and thechagiin of Mr, Aetor. Not long after they chanced to meet

and lu r. Aster inquired: ''By the way, Captain, how much did that chronometer cost you?" "Six hundred dollars," then, with a cuizzical glance, he asked: "And how much has it coat you, Mr. Astoi"? "Sixty thousand dollars." Men are often unfortunate in the rc-

! jection of what they call new fangied

notions. There are sick men who refuse, even when their physicians tell them they cannot help them, to take Warner's Safe Cure, because it is a "new fangied" proprietary medicine. The result is they lose life and health, Thousands of other men have been restored to health by it, an the testimonials iurnished to the public show. These testimonials cannot be doubted. The proprietors have a standing offer of $5,009 to any one who will show that any testimonial published by them ib not. so far as they know, entirely true. Dr. Andrew Wilson, Fellow of the

Royal Society, of Edinburgh, the editor of .''Health," London, Eng., says, in his magazine, in answer to an inquiry, " Warner's Safe Cure is of a perfectly safe character, and perfectly reliable." The refusal of a manufacturing firm to pay for the patent of a new invention by one of their workmen, cost them their entire business. A new firm took out the patent and were soon enabled to make goods enough cheaper to drive the old firm out of business, and many a physician is daily finding his patients, long-time chronic invalids, unaccountably restored to health by the use of the new kidnev specific. New fancied

- . -.. . . .. . ; notions aro sometimes veiry valuable, and it coats too much to foolishly reject them, INDIANAPOLIS NOTES. Secretary Johnson, of the State Board of Health, returned Thursday from a trip of inspection through N orthern Indiana. He visited the Michigan City prison, the Loganspert asylum and several countyasy lums. He speaks in high praise of the two insti tutions first named. He describes the Carroll county poor asylum as the worst of all the bad places he has ever seen. The buildings are old and dilapidated, the insane ward being "little more than a pen," There are six insane persons confined there, two of them are capable of taking care of themselves, and the others are not violent. Three of the women are kept in a pen. One of them is a repulsive and indecent woman, but one was a woman whose face showed that she was not of the coarsest kind, and she appeared to be rather clean. The filth of the room in which they were kept, described in-the only language that can be decently used, was simply horrible, and the odor arising from it was sickening. They are kept confined in the place constantly, and ii they were not insane, t heir surroundings would certainly make them so. The State Medical Society met here Wednesday and Thursday. There was a very Mrge attendance and much interest in ttte discussions and the various papers contributed. Dr. D. Oaten, of Lawrejiceburg was elected P?resident; Dr. 8 T. Yount, of Lafayette, Vice President; Dr. E. S. Elder, Indianapolis, Secretary for the tenth consecutive term; Dr.. T. C. Kennedy, Sielbyville, Assistant Secretary; Dr. Frank 0. Ferguson, Indianapolis, Treasurer, and Dr. J. Hibbard, of Richmond; Committee on Necrology. The attempt of Evansvalie to get rid oi its Metropolitan police system is being: watched here with considerable interest. There are a great many politicians and, others here who would not hesitate to go back to the old system, making the force partisan in every respect, I t is not belie vfd, however, any positive action will be taken, at least until after the fall election. The ' report of th4 Tnion Railway Company, for April, shows that 3,208 regular passenger trains entered the TJnio Station at ftidianapolis during the month, and 61 Special trains. The total number of poaches included in botli was 23,721. j v

Stete Treasurer Lemcke regards it as almost positive thit the German Savings Bank of New Yoik will accept the State lojin, now that the Supreme Court has decided the law inder which action is token as constitutional, i It is the opinion of State Superintendent LaFollette, judging from the reports Chat have been received, that the enumeration of echrol children in Indiana this year will show a smaller population

;than in previo is years, the decrease in

some countiei being from 800 to 500. This is due, hk believes, to the care of the persons tekmg the enumeration to make it correct. In Ids instructions the Superintendent required affidavits from the enumerators, and it is already evident that; it will have a good effect. Superintendent Galbraitb, of the Insane hospit il, does not propose to resign for about a,' month, and there is little inclination, to force it earlier than that. The advertisement for sealed proposals from p ublishers for supplying school books wider the new system have brought inquiries regarding various provisions of the law from publishing firms in St. Paul, Chicago, St. Louis, Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Pittsburg, C v&nd, )anviUe9 Ind., and

Tyrone, Pa. There is some objection to j

me provision oi me law requiring me publisher to ship the books into each county and wait for his pay until they are sold by the ahool trustees, in the meantime taking the risk of loss by fire or damage froth other causes. Still, they seem willing to ehter the competition

lor the contract. Circulars are now

being sent direct to all of the 300 school-

book publishers in the United States in order that all ma V be informed of the

chance for them to submit their pro

posals if they care to do so.

SOUrHJRN ELKCTXOX TllOCBLE. At 6 o'clock, Monday morning, a party of twenty-five or thirty meUi armed with inchester riiis, surrounded the

court house at Lafayette, Ln., while

several other bande, also armed, re

mained juitcuieide of the town limits. T J ... .

in?Be men in menacing tones, pro

claimed that no negro would be allowed

to vote at this municipal election.

At b:30 Sheriff Brouseard offered to

escort a number of men to the square

to vote. He attempted, to enter wben

there was a rush of armed men to the

entrance, and shouts were heard, "Shoot

them!" "Kill him!" 4Don't allow

them to go in!" and tho v iters turned back. The sheriff entered the couit

house, and the commissioners and clerk

of the court and sheriff, who were hold

ing the election, then closed the polls

and retired. A sworn statement by

these ofheors was forwarded bv mail to

the governor.

Late dispatches from Lafayette fully

confirm this report. Gov. Nichols re

ceived a dispatch from Sherifif Broussard which stated that he had succeeded in arresting and landing in jail ten of the

regulators. The sheriff thinks the par

isa authorities win oe apie to sunprese

the disorder and punish those engaged

in the outrage. As a precautionary

measure, the military have been ordered

to move at a moment's notice. The

postponed election for mayor and town council will be ht-ld at a future day.

It is stated that the larger portion of

the regulators were non-residents of the town and that out few of them lived

Often my left hip and knee would entirely give out. Have expended a large amount of money for remedies recommended as a cure for that terrible disease, have used the most powerful liniments on my hip and knee to sooth the pain, that I might get a little sleep. My hip and knee had lost nearly all strength by the use of liniments, and, I could get no help. I saw an advertisement of Hibbard's Rheumatic Syrup, ordered half a dozen bottles, took them and received some relief, and ordered another dozen. Have taken seven of ihk last dozen, and I am happy in saying th it I know I am being cured. Have not used any iiniment since I commenced taking your syrup. "When I began taking your syrup I could not take a step without the use of a cane, neither could I turn myself in bed without aid; can now turn in tied without any trouble, can walk about my house and office without the use of my cane, often losing track of it, for the reason when I take a long walk. I take it along. My office is four blocks from my house; I have not walked to or from it for over a year until last Thursday, a week. Since that time I have walked to and from it every day, except Sunday. I am truly rejoicing that I am fast being re lieved from such a terrible affliction. Very truly, , S..8.
