Moody and Sankey at the Brooklyn Kink.

LAST WEEK OF THE EXERCISES.

Enthusiasm Growing as the Termination of the Meetings Draws Nigh.

Moody's Head Lerel on Certain Econ cmical Questions.

New York, Nov. 16.—A crowded Audience filled the rink this evening, -and a numherof working people were present. The usual singing exercises preceded the appearance of the evangelists. The hymn "The Great Pby« sician Now is Here," was sung by the audience standing and Rev. Dr. E. Payson Hammond ottered a prayer, which was followed by the singing of the hymn, "When Jesus Comes," by Sankey, the choir joining in the chorus. Rev, Moody gave out the customary notices, and then read the evening lesson from Revelations, xxi. 120, 27th Verse. The hymn "That Will be Heaven for Me," was then sung by Sankey. The sermon was the continuation of that of the night before, on excuses. He said: I pray Thee have me excused. I want to apeak excuses to night, th^t we meet with every evening, IU the inquiry from common excuse is that I don't know that I am oue of the elect. I find a good many stumbling over the election. No unconverted man has anything to do with that. The apostle Paul wrote that epistle, not to the world, it was written to the church what the unconverted have to do with is that word. Whosoever will, let him take of the water of life freely It is for him to choose. God does not mock us. He does not offer us salvation and then not give us power to take hold of it. Now the

?uestion

is one you really chose. If

were to come down street to-night and desire to enter here a policeman says, ticket sir. I havent any ticket and I can't get in. Go a Utile further, and there is the Free Mason's Lodge. I am not one of the elect, and can't get in. But I go a little further and see a sign "Whosoever, will let him come in." That means me, and I go in. Now when God proclaims solotatiou which is headed with that work, whosoever, that means you and me. I was preaching in the Columbus penitentiary once and was told that the Governor gave his consent and that five men should be pardoned for good behavior, not letting them know anything about it. Five of the highest on the roll of good conduct were to receive pardons. One day the prisoners were in the cnapel when the President of the commission said to them: "I hold in my hand to-day pardons for five men." Every man was as silent as the grave with expectation and he began to tell thfem how the pardons were acquired. The chaplain said "that the suspense was too great,"and he called out as first ^'Reuben Johnson Ruben Johnson will now come forward and get his aardon." But no one came. He

dred men would have, at once jump ed to their feet. I have an idea that after the Lord had been in heaven, and after Paul had written that epis tie, he supposed that some one in this rink to-night, and in the world, would stumble over that doctrine of election so he just caught John up in the isle of Patmos, and told him to write these things to tbe churches and to keep on writing, and just before yon seal it, John, write, "Spirit and bride say come. Some will not hear so let bim that is an atheist come, and whosoever will, let him take of the water of life freely

After singing, the services closed with a benediction. MORNING MEETING*

New York, Nov. 17.—Tuera was a

large gathering at the Brooklyn Tabernacle this A. M., and aervices opened with singing ''Sweet Hour of Prayer." Deacon Han ley read the requests for prayer for revivals in fourteen towns and cities, and for business firms in New York, and for unconverted employees of religious papers, and for seven churches and iheir pastors, for eight families and six drunkards, also letters from persons for their own conversions. "Jesus Keep Me Near The Cross," was sung, and Moody read and based his remarks upon 5th of St Lukes. He had often wondered why it was that after the Lord had made these men successful in business, he would call them away, He had an idea that it was because the Lord wanted them to leave something behind. There were plenty who were ready to give themselves to Christ if it did not cost anything. Mauy rum sellers would join church if they were not called upon to sacrifice their business. They found Peter saying to the Lord that he bad left all to follow him. What did he leave? Only a lot of old broken nets, and see what they gained. He then spoke of the, publican who at Christ's bidding arose and followed him without any questions, this publicau invited other publicans saying, if he could only bring them to face the Savior they would be converted, that was what they wanted, He wanted to be brought nearer to Christ, to follow him, he should tell what the Lord had done for us, he should be like a Scotch woman who was so overjoyed that she shouted, and said the Lord shall never hear the last of this after the conversion. The should not go quietly about saying notbiug, he referred to healing ten lepers, how thankful they were that they were healed, one went and threw himself down at Christ feet and blessed him, and Christ said, were there not ten healed, where are nine. Mr. Sankey then sang "Where Nine," Rev. Mr. Nosthrad made the address speaking of a great numbers, who were kept back from Christ from some one little thing. Rev. Dr. Buddington followed by saying that at time they were lost and dismayed then their prayers were answered, they should persevere aud they might be assured they would not fail. Mr. Moody prayed for the sue cess oi their meeting to-night and said to-morrow they would commence collections of the debt of the Y. M. C. A., they wanted to get enough to leave $3000 or $4000 iu the treasury, he wanted the young men ia Brooklyn to have a good start.

ENNYSON.

The most Jintesting and elaborate wedding of tlie season, was celebrated last evening at St. Paul's Cathedral. For many we«* ks tbe fashionable circles oi Indianapolis society have been auxiouslv commenting on Xhe marriage of Mr. Austin Morris, and Miss Kate Tousey. They are both representatives of Very old families in the city, and

consequently of large inherited wealth. There was a degree of romance attached to the nuptials not often to be met with in the weddings of these days. The thoughts of people were directed almost instinctively to the interesting facts of our past local history brought up so vividly by the nnion of two of our oldest and wealthiest families. In the early ^avs of the capitol oflndiana, the progenitor of the Morris iamily in this region, a gentleman bearing the singular name of Morris MOrris Morris, settled here on what is now the southern side of the city, and for years after his advent an old tree was pointed out on the spot where Wiles Bro. & Co.'s grocery store is now located, to which the worthy pioneer used to tie his horse. He was shrewd, and foreseeing the growth o! the metropolis, he obtained possession ol a vast deal of real estate. After the lapse of years he was the owner in lee simplest the rich land, now included between Meridian and Tennessee streets, and extending from Washington street to the present railroad tracks, and nearly all of this immense and valuable tract was bequeathed to his heirs at his death. It is apart of

THIS COSTLY NEST-EGG

which Mr. Aus. Morris now enjovs. He draws rent from thirteen buildings 6S bis part of the inheritance, and is estimated to be worth about $150.00. More than that, which is decidedly in bis favor, he is a young gentleman of fine business qualities, estimable and popular in his manners, and well known and well wished by a vast number oi friends. No less ancient, and worthy and wealthy lare tbe family and connections of M!SB Kat9 Tousey, the bride. The two names of Tousey and Morris have always been elosely identified with the foundation and prosperity,of Indianapolis,,and control to-day verj^ large inherited wealth. On both sldesjtherefore, the wedding of last epenicfe meant that love bad united the honor and fortunes of two highly esteemed families. Relatives of both bride and groom, hero and elsewhere. are countless almost, and wealthy. In this city alone theTouseys area legion, and connections are scattered iu every direction, while the relatives of the groom embrace tbe names of Morris, Dafrees, Pepard, Corwine, Greer, Mothershead aud Pattl«on. If the expectations of society were very exulted there_ certainly were no hopes of elegacce in display left to be unrealized by the wedding arrangements and gifts. '.

THECEKEMONY

was announced for 7 o'clock, but the Cathedral's empty seats were taken beforo the hour arrived, and it would be bard io imagine a society occasion that would gather together such accompany of our fashionable representatives. While tho audience was anxiously awaiting the advent of bridal party. Mr. Frank Webb presided at tbe organ with very acceptable skill, and the ushers gracefully performed their tasks. Tbe gentlemen chosen for this task were Messrs. George Tousey, brother of-J.be bride, George Porter, Carey Miller, Jesse Caldwell, Ben. Graves and Dave Wallace. At' last the doors were thrown open, and the near relatives of tbe families represented were escorted to their seats. They were followed by

s.

THE WEDDING TRAIN,'

which filed in in tbe following order: Miss Nannie Morris and Mr. James Slaughter, Miss Rose English and Mr. Ed Lamme, two ushers, Miss Julia Brown and Mr. Charles Adsit, Miss Anna McDonald and Mr. Lew, Marcheater,

two

ushers. Miss Emma Ken­

nedy and Mr. Milt Morris, Miss Annie Flovd, of Terre Haute, and Mr. Morris Boss the groom and Mrs. Tousey, tbe bride ana Mr. Ralph Tousey, her lather. The most perlect order and taste were tD be seen in tbe manner of approaching the chancel. First tbe ushers, six in number, divided at the outer cnancel rail, the bridesmaids an attendants passing on to the inner rail,and on reaching it tbe bridesmaids separated, taking tbe lett and kneeling at once, tbe groomsmen following suit on tbe right. Then the seting of the wedding scene was com-

leu-d by the bridegroom' leading bis to the center and standing through tbe ceremon while, the parents of the bri held a position iu the right center of (he cuancel. The Rav. O. A. Judd, rector of Grace Church, performed tbe ceremony, in the unavoidable absence of Bishop Talbott, who had been expected till a late hour, but the substitution, so far as ear. estness in delivery and solemnity iu tone and manner were concerned, could not but have been acceptable to the parties. Several unusual but well-timed variations from the customary details were to be noticed. For instance, Mr. Tousey, instead of merely jaignifyihg that he "gave this woman to be tharfied to tbis man," went forward and1- joined the hand&of the couple. Mr. Morris received the ring "from the groomsman on his right, and'

&

removed ty the bridesmaid on her left, who rose to perform tbe graceful service. The bride was extremely £eif^jpoa8ess&i and dignified. She responded to the questions and follow* ed the" words of the troth in a very clear and distinct voice!

fashionable weddings the ladies shone resplendent. They were all richly and beautifully dressed, the bridesmaids in white silk and tarleton, trimmed elaborately, their heads and shoulders wreathed with flowers of white, blue and scarlet, while they all glittered with diamonds or other precious stoues. The bride's toilet was very costly^ and exquisite. It consisted of a heavy white and tinted silk, cut low in the waist and pointed, richly trimmed wiih lace, while she wore the long talle bridal veil, confined by orange blossoms, which also crowned her bead. This, with the costly diamonds that lent their sparkle, gave a very brilliant and charming appearauee to one who can dazzle without Ibe aid of ornaments of this kind. Mrs Rilph Tousey appeared in lavender silk with trimmings of lace and diamond ornaments.

THE BRIDAL PRESENTS.

At the conclusion of the service an admirable plan was adopted to prevent tbe crowding that always spoils the pleasure of these festival occa sions. The momeut the last words of »he benediction were out of the rector's mouth, the ushers passed quickly down the center aisle and imprisoned the audience on each side of it by stretching white ribbons along the side of the pews from ,one end of the church to the other. This aced like oil on the troubled waters and enabled the wedding party entire to pass out without bein-c molested by curious spectators. Festivities of reception were then continued at the residence of Mr. Ralph Tousey, on North Tenuesse street. Iuvited guests had b- en notified that this part of the exersises was to be informal. They were to come with congratulations and retire at 10 o'clck." Between the hours named there was an immense gathering of propitious wishes expressed. In an upper room were displayed the gifts sent in by the large circle of relatives and friends. It certainly surpassed anything of the kind which society here has seen for many years.. At the lowest calculation the value of presents could not have been less than $12,000. In all, there were 105 gifts, many of them extremely rich and all extremely beautiful.

CURIOUS STONE.

Extraordinary Posesslon of Chas. Barrlck. A few days ago Charley Barrick had the biggest and roundest stone in the oonntry. He hasn't got it now because he gave it to Judge Thomas B. Long. The stone was found in Edgar county, 111., is perfectly round and weighs MX pounds. The theory of the Jndge is that its sphericy was attained through human agency. The stone was most probably the'creation of some man's 'abor thousands of years ago, and was used to grind wheat. A flat stone was grooved and tbis round one moved in the circular place, crushing and grinding the grain by its weight. It is not probable that these round stones, neatly cut stone tomahawks aud arrowheads were made by the Indians, although they may have been nsed-by them. They are thought to haye been made in the stone age. The Jud^e also has a smaller stone of singularly perfect shape, which was found near Honey creek by Wm. Crusan and presented to bim. This stone is not large enough to have ever been of utility in flour making but a pecaliarity in its construction has suggested to scientific men another idea as to the use which was made of it by our long defunct progenitors. On one plac9 there has been noticed, on each of the specimens of these stones yet found, a flat place slightly hollowed out, an of a circular shape. It is that in this place our ancestors rested the end of a short hickory stick. A piece of leather was then pulled over the ball and over this stick, and the whole used as an i..,

Mr. Coals was born in Pensylvania in 1823 and came to reside in Tesre Haute in 1849. He was married in 1851 to Miss Emma L. Burgett, the daughter of one of the earliest settlers of Vigo County. His amiable wife survives him, with three children.

Mr Coats was a man of sterling character, impretending and modest in his intercourse wi?h tbe world, but of unbending integrity and truthfulness. Few men had warmer friends, and these friends

were

secured to him

by his amiable interccource with his neighbors and fellow-citizens. He was always willing to do generous deeds, and to help the needy even beyond his means. He preformed all the duties required of a good citizen( neighbors and friends.

Mr. Coats served the city for many years as councilman, and this was the only official position he ever fill ed In that however, he was eminently useful to his fellow citizens. It gave him opportuni ties to manifest his qualifications for higher station, had his ambition been equal to his qualifications. The care he exhibited Councilman for the interests of the City—for its improvement for its matetial and moral welf.ire—is well remembered by all classes of our people. As a council­
