IiltOOKI.YN, Slay 13. This morning the
Rev. T. Do Wilt Talmago preached at the
Tabernacle to an overflowing congrega
tion. The hymn beginning, j
Stand up, tny soul; shako oil tliy fears,
Aud gird tbo (Johh-I armor on, I
was 6ung with magnificent effect. Dr. !
Talmago 'a subject was "Obscuration,"
and his text, "Tho sun shall bo tinned j
into darkness." Acts Ji, 20. llo said:
Holar eclipse ii here prophesied to take
place aliout the timo of the destruction of
ancient Jerusalem. Jonephus, tho his
torian, tsays that the prophecy was liter
ally fulfilled, and that about that time
tbero were strango appearances in the
heavens. The sun was not destroyed,
but for a little while hidden.
Christianity is tbo rising sun of our
lime, and men havo tried with tho un
rolling vapors of skepticism and tho
smoke of their blasphemy to turn tho
6im into darkness. Suppose tho arch
angels of malice and horror should le
let loose a little while and be allowed to
extinguish and destroy tho sun in tho
natural heavens. They would tako tho
oceans from oth;r worlds and pour them
on this luminary of the plaetary system,
and the waters go hissing down amid tho
ravines and the caverns, and there is ex
plosion alter explosiem, until there aro
only a few peaks of fire left in tho sun,
und these aro cooling down aud going
out until tho vast continents of flame aro
reduced to a small acreage of fire, and
that whitens ancLcools off until there nro
only a few coals left, and theso aro
whitening and going out until there is
not a spark left in all tho mountains of
ashes ami the vallej's of ashes anil tho
chasms of ashes. An extinguished sun.
A deael sun. A buried sun. Let all
worlds wail at the stiix'nelous obsequies.
Of course, this w ithdrawal of the solar
light ad heat throws our earth into a
universal chill, and tho tropica becomo
the temperate, and the temperate be
comes tho Arctic, and there are frozen
rivers and frozen lakes ami frozen oceans.
From Arctic and Antarctic regions the in
habitants gather in toward tho center
and linel tho equator as tho poles. The
slain forests arc piled up into a great bon
fire, and around them gather the shiver
ing villages and cities. The wealth of
tho coal mines is hastily poured into the
furnaces and stirred into rage of com
bustion, but soon tho bonfires begin to
lower, and tho furnaces begin to ge out,
aud the nations begin to die. Cotopaxi,
Vesuvius, Etna, Stromboli, Califomian
geysers cease to smoke, and the ice of
hail storms remains unmelted in their
crater. All tho flowers havo breathed
their last breath. Sliips with sailors
frozen at tho mast, and helmsmen
frozen at the wheel, and passen
gers frozen in tho cabin; all na
tions dyirifr, first at tho north and then
at the south. Child frosted and dead in
the cradle. Octogenarian frosted and
deael at the hearth. Workmen with
frozen hand on the liammer ami frozen
foot on the shuttle. Winter from sea to
sea.- All congealing winter. Perpetual
winter. Globe of rigidity. Hemisphere
shackled to hemisphere by chains of ice.
Universal Nova Zembla. The earth an
ice floe grinding against other ice floes.
The archangels of malice anel horror
have done their work, and now they may
take their thrones of glacier and look
down upon the rum they havo wrought.
What the destruction of the sun in tho
natural heavens would be to our physi
cal earth, the destruction of Christianity
would bo to the moral world. The smi
turneel into darkness. Infidelity in our
time is considered a great joke. There
are people who rejoice to hear Christi
anity caricatured, and to hear Christ as
Kaileel with quibble, and quirk, and mis
representation, and badinage, and harle
quinade. I propose this morning to take. Infidel
ity anel Atheism,, out of tcVealm of joc
ularity into one or tragedy, and show
you what they propose, anel what, if they
aro successful, they will accomplish.
There are those in all our communities
who would like to see the Christian re
ligion overthrown, anel who say the
world would be better without it. I
want to show you what is the end of
this road, and what is the terminus of
this crusade, and what this world will be
when Atheism and Infidelity have tri
umphed over it, if they can. I say, if
they can. I reiterate it, if they can.
In the first place, it will bo the com
plete and unutterable degradation of
womanhood. I will prove it by facts
and arguments which no honest man will
dispute. In all communities and cities
and states and nations where the Chris
tian religion has been dominant, woman's
condition has been ameliorated and im
proved, and she is deferred to and hon
ored in a thousand tilings, and every
gentleni:::i Ices off his hat before her.
If your associations have been good, you
know that tho namo of wife, mother,
daughter, suggest gracious surroundings.
You know there are no better schools
and seminaries in Brooklyn or in any
city of this country than the schools and
seminaries for our young ladies. You
know tliat while woman may suffer in
justice in England and the United States,
Bhe has more of her rights in Christen
dom tlian she has anywhere else.
Now compare this with woman's con
dition in lands where Christianity has
made little or no advance in China, in
Barbary. in Borneo, in Tartary, in Egypt,
in Ilmdostan. The Burmese sell their
wives and daughters a3 bo many sheep.
The Hindoo Bible makes it disgraceful
and an outrage for a woman to listen to
music, or to look out of the window in
tho absence of her husband, and gives a3
a lawful ground for divorce a woman's
beginning to eat before her husband has
finished his meal. What mean those
white bundles on the ponds and rivers in
China in the morning? Infanticide fol
lowing infanticide. Female children
destroyed simply because they are female.
Woman harnessed to a plow as an ox.
Woman veileil and barricaded, and in all
styles of cruel seclusion. Her birth a
misfortune. Hot life a torture. Her
.death a horror. Tho missionary of
the cross today in heathen lar.ds
preaches generally to two groups- a
group of men who do as tltey please and
sit whero they please; the other a group
of women hidden and carefully secluded
in a side apartment, whero they may hear
tho voice of tho preacher, but may notle
seen. No refinement. No liberty. No
Iiojkj for this life. No hope for tho life
to come. Hinged nose. Cramped foot.
Disfigured face. Embruted soul. Now
comparo theso two conditions. How far
toward thi3 latter condition that I speak
of would woman go if Christian influ
ences wero withdrawn and Christianity
were destroyed? It is oidy a question of
dynamics. If an object lo lifted to a
certain point and not fastened there, and
the lifting power lo withdrawn, how
long before that object will fall down to
tin; point from which it started? It will
fall down, and it will go still further
than tho point from which it started.
Christianity has lifted woman up from
the very depths of degradation almost to
the skies. If that lifting Kwer be with
drawn sho falls clear back to tho depth
from which sho was resurrected, not go
ing any lower because there is no lower
depth. And yet, notwithstanding the
fact that tho only salvation of woman
from degradation and wkj is tho Chris
tian religion, and the only influence that
has ever lifted her in the secial scale is
Christianity I have read that there are
women who reject Christianity. I make
no remark in regard to those iersons. I
mako no remark in regard to them. In the
silence of your own soul make your ob
servations. If infidelity triumph and Christianity
bo overthrown, it means the demoraliza
tion of society. Tho one idea in tho
Bible that atheists and infidels most hato
is tho ielea of retribution. Take away
tho idea of retribution and punishment
from society, and it will begin very soon
to elisintegrate; and take away from tho
minds of men tho fear of hell, and there
aro a great man' of them who would
very sxn turn this world into a hell.
The majority of those who are indignant
against the Biblo because of tho idea of
punishment are men whoso lives are bad
or whose hearts are impure, and who hate
the Bible because of the idea of future pun
ishment for the same reason that criminals
hato the penitentiary. Oh, I have heard
this brave talk about people fearing noth
ing of the consequences of sin in tho next
world, and I have made up my minel it
is merely a coward's whistling to keep
his courage up. I have seen men flaunt
their immoralities in the face of tho com
munity, and I havo heard them de'fy tho
judgment day anel scoff at the idea of
any future censequence of their sin; but
when they came to die they shrieked
until you could hear them for nearly two
blccks, and in the 6ummer night tho
neighbors got up to put the windows
down lecauso they could not endure tho
horror.
I would not want to 6oe a rail train
v. ith five hunelred Christian peoplo on
board go down through a drawbridge into
a watery grave. I would not want to see
five hundred Christian people go into
such disaster, but I tell you plainly that
I could more easily see that than I could
for any protracteel time stand and see an
infidel die, though his pillow were of
eiiler down and under a canopy of ver
milion. I have never been aide to brace
up my nerves for such a spectacle. There
is something at such a time se indescrib
able in the countenance. I just looked
in upon it for a minute or two. but the
clutch of his fist was so diabolical, and
the strength of voice was so unnatural, I
could not endure it. "There is no hell,
tbero is no hell, there is no hell!" the
man had said for sixty years; but that
night when I looked in the dying room
of my infielel neighbor there was some
thing on his countenance which 6eemeel
to say: "There is, there is, there is,
there is!"
The mightiest restraints .today against
theft, against immorality, against liber
tinism, against crime of all sorts the
mightiest restraints aro the retributions
of eternity. Jlen know that they can
escape the law. but down in the offend
er's soul there is the realization of the
fact that they car.net escape Goel. He
stands at, the end of the road of prof
Vigr.Cy, and ho will not clear the guilty.
Take all idea of retribution and punish
ment out of the hearts and minds of men,
and it would not be long before Brooklyn
anel New York and Boston and Charles
ton and Chicago became Sodoms. Tho
only restraints against the evil passions
of the world today are Biblo restraints.
Suppose now these generals of Atheism
and Infidelity got the victory, and sup
pose they marshaled a great army made
up of the majority of tho world. They
aro in companies, in regiments, in
brigades the whole army. Forward,
march I ye hosts of infidels and atheists,
banners flying before, banners flying be
hind, banners inscribed with the words:
No God! No Christ! No punishment 1
No restraints! Down with the Bible!
Bo as you please!" The sun turned into
darkness.
Forward, march ! yo great army of in
fidels and atheists. And first of all you
will attack the churches. Away with
those houses of worship 1 They have
been standing there so long eieiuding the
people with consolation in their bereave
ments and sorrows. All those churches
ought to be extirpatcel; they have tlono
so much to relieve the lost anel bring
home the wandering, and they have so
long held up the idea of eternal rest after
the paroxysm of tliis life is over. Turn
the St. Peters and St. Pauls anel the tem
ples and tabernacles into club houses.
Away with those churches!
Forward, march 1 ye great army of in
fidels anei atheiits, and next of all they
scatter the Sabbath schools the Sabbath
schools filled with bright eyeel, bright
cheeked little ones who are singing songs
on Sunday afternoon, and getting instruc
tions when they ought to be on the street
corners playing marbles, or swearing on
the commons. Away with them! For
ward, march! ye great army of infidels
and atheists, and next of all they will at
tack Christian asylums tho institutions
of mercy supported by tho Christian
philantliropies. Never mind the blind
eyes and the deaf ears and the crippled
limbs and the weakened intellects. Let
paralyzed old age pick up its own food,
and orphans fight their own way, and
the half reformed go back to their evil
habits. Forward, march! ye great army
of infidels and atheists, and with your
battle axes hew down the cross and split
up the manger of Bethlehem.
On, ye great army of infidels and athe
ists, and now they come to the grave
yards anJ the cemetries of tho earth.
Iull down tho sculpture above Green
wood's gate, for it means the resurrec
tion. Tear away at tho entrance of
laurel Hill the figure of Old Mortality
and the chisel. On, ye great army of in
fidels and atheists, into tho graveyards
and cemeteries; and whero you see
"Asleep in Jesus." cut it away, and
where you find a marble story of heaven,
blast it, and where 3-ou find over a little
child's grave: "Suffer little children to
como unto me," substituto tho words
"delusion" and "sham." and where you
find an angel in marble, strike off the
wing, and when you come to a family
vault, chisel on the door: "Dead once,
dead forever." .
But on, ye great army of infidels and
atheists, on! They will attempt to ecale
heaven. There are hciglfts to Ikj taken.
I'ilo hill on hill and I'e-lion tioii O.ssa,
and then they hoist tho ladders against
tho walls of heaven. On and on until
they blow up tho foundations of jasper
and tho gates of pearl. They charge up
the steep. Now they aim for the throne
of him who liveth forever anil ever.
They would tako down from their high
place the Father, the Son, tho Hely
Ghost. "Down with theml" they say.
"Down with him from the throne 1"
they say. "Down forever! Down out
of sight! He is not God. Ho has no
right to sit there. Down with hluil
Down with Christ!"
A world without a head, a universe
without a king. Orphan constellations.
Fatherless galaxies. Anarchy supremo.
A dethroned Jehovali. An assassinated
God. Patricide, regicide, deicide. That
is what they mean. That is what they
will have, if they can, if they can, if
they can. Civilization hurled back into
semi-barbarism, and semi-barbarism
elriven back into Hottentot savagery.
Tho wheel of progress turned the other
way and turned toward the dark ages.
The clock of the centuries put back two
thousand years. Go back, you Sand
wich Islands, from your schools and
from j-our colleges and from your re
formed condition to what j ou were in
1820, when the missionaries first came.
Call home the fivo hunelreel missionaries
from India and overthrow their two
thousand schools, where they aro
trying to educate the heathen,
and scatter the one hundred anel
forty thousand little children that
they have gathered out of barbarism into
civilization. Obliterato all the work of
Dr. Duff in India, of David Abeel in
China, of Dr. King in Greece, of Judsoa
in Burmah, of David Brainard amid tho
American aborigines, and send home tho
3,000 missionaries of the cross who are
toiling In foreign lands, toiling for
Christ's sake, toiling themselves into tho
grave. Tell these 3,000 men of God that
they are of no use. Send home the med
ical missionaries who are doctoring the
bodies as well as tho souls of the dying
nations. Go home, London Missionary
society. Go home, American Board of
Foreign Missions. Go home, ye Moravi
ans, and relinquish back into darkness
and squalor and filth and death the na
tions whom ye have begun to lift.
Oh, my friends, there has never been
such a nefarious plot on earth as that
which infidelity and atheism havo
planned. We were shockeel a few years
ago because of the attempt to blow up
tho parliament houses in Lomlon; but if
infidelity anel atheism succeed in their
attempt, they will elynainite a world.
Let them have their full way, anel this
world will be a habitation of threo rooms
a habitation with just three rooms
tho one a madhouse, another a lazaretto,
the other a pandemonium. These in
fidel bands of music have only just begun
their concert yea they have only been
stringing their instruments. I today put
before you their whole programme from
beginning unto close. In the theatre the'
tragedy comes first anel the farce after
ward; but in this infidel drama of death
the farce comes first and the tragedy
afterward. And in tho former atheists
and infidels, laugh and mock, but in tho
latter Qod himself will laugh and mock,
lie says so. "I will laugh at their ca
lamity and mock when their fear Com
eth." From such a chasm of individual, na
tional, world wide ruin, stand back. Oh,
young men, 6tand back from that chasm!
You see the practical drift of my sermon.
I want you to know where that road
lead 3. Stand back fi 'om that chasni of
rum. The timo is going to come (you
and I may not live to see it, but it will
come, just as certainly as there is a God,
it will come) when the infidels and tho
atheists who openly, and out and out and
above board preach and practice Infidel
ity and Atheism will bo cousieiered as
criminals against society, as they are
now criminals against God. Society
will push out the leper, and the wretch
with soul gangrened, and ichorous, and
vermin covereel, aud rotting apart with
Iiis bestiality, will be left to die in tho
ditch, and be denied decent burial, and
men will come with spades and cover up
the carcass where it falls, that it poison
net the air, anel the only text in all tho
Bible appropriate for the funeral sermon
will be Jeremiah xxii, 19: "He shall be
buried with the burial of an ass. "
A thousand voices come up to me this
morning saying: "Do you really think
infielelity will succeed? lias Christianity
received its death blow? and will tho
Bible become obsolete?" Yes. when the
smoke of the city chimney arrests and
destroys the noonday sun. Joscphus
says about the time of the destruction of
Jerusalem tho sun was turned into dark
ness; but only the clouds rolled between
the sun and the earth. The sun went
light on. It is the same sun, the same
luminary as when at the begin
ning it 6hot out like an electric
6park from God's finger, and today
it is warming the nations, and today
it is gilding the sea, and today it is
filling the earth with light. Tho same
old sun, not at all worn out, though its
light 6teps one hundred anei ninety mill
ion miles a second, though its pulsa
tions are four hundred and fifty trillion
undulations in a second. Same 6un with
beautiful white light, made up of tlie
violet and tho indigo and the blue and
tho green and the red and the yellow and
tho orange the seven beautiful colors
now just as when the solar spectrum
first divided them.
At the beginning God said: "Let there
l3 light," and light was, and light u.
anel light shall le. So Christianity i
rolling on. aud it is going to warin all
nations, and all nations are to bask in its
light. Men way shut the window blinds j
so they cannot see it, or they may smoke
the pipe of speculation until they are
bliadowed under their own vaporing; but
tho Ixrd CJod is a sun! This white light
of tho Gospel, made up of all tho beauti
ful colors of earth and heaven violet
pi ticket 1 from amid the spring grass,
and tho indigo of tho southern jungles,
and tho blue of the skies, and
the green of the foliage, and the yellow
of tho autumnal wooels, and the orange
of tho southern groves, and the red of
tho sunsets. All tho beauties of earth
and heaven brought out by this spiritual
siectrum. Great Britain is going to take
all Europe for God. Tho Uniteel States
are going to tako all America for God.
Both of them together wiil take all Asia
for God. All threo of them will take
Africa for God. "Who art thou, oli,
great mountain? leforo Zerubbabel thou
shalt become a plain." The mouth of
the Lord hath spoken it. Hallelujah,
amen !

Mi-3. Lillian M. Pavy, of London, Eng
land, is a commercial traveler now visit
ing the western states hi the interest of
an English house. She travels alone and
finds that in this country a woman does
not need an escort to protect her from
annoyance.
The following advertisement recently
appeared in The London Standard: "A
lady of good family, without means, with
a thorough knowledge of everything,
would be grateful to any one who would
give her occupation, not particular as to
what."
The years clutch all alike, and Queen
Victoria has fallen into the habit of tak
ing little "cat naps" in her chair, even
when visitors are present. At such times
the royal lady goes through the same
routine followed by the most humble of
her subjects. Her head falls a little for
ward, swaying slightly from side to side;
then she sits bolt upright, opens her eyes
very wide anel assumes an appearance of
great intelligence and alertness.
Aunt Becky Young, of Cedar Rapids,
la., is a member of the Grand Army oi
the Republic, and attends all its reunions
in her state. Left a widow with two
children at the age of 32, she left her
home in Ithaca, N. Y., to go to the front
as an hospital nurse. Aunt Becky is CO
-ears old now, and her brown hair is
streaked with gray, but she is full of life
and energy, and no old soldier finds a
keener relLh in shouldering his crutch
and showing how fields were won than
does Aunt Becky in relating stories of her
hospital experiences on the field.
It seems queer to hear of the life tho
Queen of Sweden's doctors are making
her leael to overcome a distressing nerv
ous malady with which she is afSicted.
They make her get up almost at day
break, wash in cold water, make her own
beel, clean her own room, do garden
work, take long walks and go to bed
early. They have on several occasions,
in order to secure fatigue and give her
mind the necessary interest and occupa
tion, required her to cook and even wash
clothes. Unvysr th3 regime she is get
ting strong and hearty, but one does not
need to be a queen to enjoy such an ex
perience. There is one woman in the department
of the interior who cannot be dispensed
with. Administrations may come and
go, but she goes on forever. She was
left over from the last Republican admin
istration, and somebody wanted her
place. Her salary was 700 a year. She
worked only five days in the week, as
sho was a Hebrew. Assistant Secretary
MulJron said: "We cannot get along
without her. She can write a letter
that can be understood. She knows just
where to put her capitals. She can punc
tuate with exactness. Her sentences aro
models of lucid brevity." So she not
only staid, but her salary is raised to
$1,100 a year, and she is worth it.
Washington Letter in Detroit Free Press.
"Tlie German empress," says a writer
in The Journal des Debats, "is the soul
of the imperial household. She i3 much
better loved there thta outside, where
people are unjust to her. She has com
mitted tho mistake of remaining English
as all the English do and to carry the
pride of her race into the middle of a
people which admires itself with a naive
and enormous complaisance; she brought
tho pride of her birth into a family which
believes itself the first in the world; her
aristocratic tastes into a town where art
shows itself in clumsy imitations and
patchwork; the independence of her
views into a court where everything is
regulated and prearranged ; and the lib
erty of her religious and political senti
ments into a center where religion has
its narrow forms, as tho politics of which
it is the servant. "
A man in a western town seriously
