wrote a Ixwik entitled "Man, Moral .and

trous to the latter, tho defeated army re-
treat-'d. followed hv the victors. A
description of the march of each army is
given by two correspondents of Jho Lon
don Times, one of whom traveled with
the successful host, the other with the
d Teated. The difference in views and
statements of the same place, scenes and
events is remarkable. The? former .:re
said to Ik? marching through a beautiful
and luxuriant country during the day
and at night camping where they are
supplied with an abundance of the best
provisions and all sorts of rural daintie.-

Some years ago a scientific lecturer

body when healthy, and differents arts
when diseased. And what tho world
wants now is some eloquent scientist to

First, let Christian people avoid the
mistake that they are all wrong with God
because they si ;7er from depression of
spirits. Many a consecrated man has
found his spiritual sky befogged, and his
Jiope'of heaven blotted out. and himself
ylunged chin d -ep in the Slough of De
?ixjnd. and Las said: "My heart is not
right with God. and I think I :v have
made a mistake, and instead of l -eing a
child of light I am a child of darkness.
Jib one can feel as gloomy as I fe:l and
be a Christian." And he has gene to hu
minister for consolation, and lie has col
lected Flavors Ixjoks, and Cecil's books,
and raters Looks, and read and read
and read, and prayed and prayed and
jrayod, aud wept and wept and wept,
and a march over the same road, the
writer can sea reel v find words to set
I fi rth the suffering, impatience and dis
j gust existing around him. What was
j pleasant to tho former va.s intolerable to
the latter. What made all this difference?
! a- ks the journalist. 'One condition only:
' The French are victorious: tho Austrian

I convey a distinctive1 idea of the extent t
i which moral impressions affect the old-

I
i So. my dear brother, the road 3-ou are
j traveling is the same you have In-en travel
! ing a long while, but the difference in
; your physical conditions makes it look
d liferent, and therefore the two report.-1
you have given of yourself are as widely
different as tho reports in The London
Times from the two correspondents.
I'M ward Fay son, sometimes so far up on
the mount that it seemed as if the cen-trijH-tal
force of earth could no longer
hold him: sometimes, through a physical
disorder, was so far down that it seemed
as if the nether world would clutch him.
Glorious William Cowp.er was as good as
good could lo. and will bo loved in tho
Christian church as long as it sings his
hymn I-eginning: "There is a Fountain
Filled with Blood;" mid his hymn liegin
ning: "Oh. for a Closer Walk with God !"
and his hymn beginning: "What Various
Hindrances we Meet;" and his hymn be
ginning: "God Moves in a Mysterious
Way. ' Yet so was he overcome of melan
choly, or black bile, that it wis only
through the mistake of the cab driver,
who took him to a wrong place, instead
of the river bank, that lie did not commit
suicide.
Spiritual condition so mightily affected
by the physical state, what a great oppor
tunity this gives to the Christian phy
sician, for he can feel at the same time
lwth the pulse of the Ixxly and the pulse
of the soul, and he can administer to both
at once, and if medicine is needed ho can
give that an earthly and a divine pre
scription at the same time and call on
not only the ajxithecary of earth, but the
pharmacy of heaven. Ah. that is the
hind of doctor I want at my bedside when
1 got sick, one that cannot only pour out
the right number of drops, but who can
also pray. That is tho kind of doctor I have
had in my house when sickness or death
came. I do not want any of your profli
gate or atheistic doctors arouud my loved
ones when the balances of life are t cm
Llie.g. A chx-tor who has gone 4hr ugh
the medical college and in dissecting
room has traversed the wonders of the
human mechanism, and found no God
in any of the labyrinths, is a fool, and
cannot dx.-tor me cr mine. Cut, oh,
the Chri-.tian doctors! What a comfort
they have Lcen in many o.f our house
holds. And they ought to have a warm
(lace i:i our prayers, as well as praise
on our tongues. Dear old Dr. Skill-
man: .iy lamer s uoetcr, my motner s
doctor, in tiie village homo. He car
ried all the confidences of all the
families for ten miles around. We
ad feit better as soon as wo saw him

Ix-alke-Io lx-fore he said a word, lie wel
comed ail of us children into life, and he
closed the cM people's eyes when they
ti,. i entered the la.vt slumber. I thmk I know
1 1 . -v i UL'
wae.t mist said to mm when the o;i
j doctor got through his work. I think he
I was greeted with the words: "Come in,
doctor. I was sick and ye visited me!"'
I bless God that the number of Christian
. physicians is multiplying, and some of the
students of the medic:d colleges are here
; today, and I hail you, and I bless yon,
! aial I ordain you to the tender, 1-eautiful,
heaven descended work of a Christian
i physician, and when you take your
' diploma from the Long Island Medical
college, to look after the erishable lo ly,
Ix euro also to get a diploma from tiie
skies to look after the imierishahle soul.
Let all Christian physicians unite with
ministers of the Gospel in persuading good
people that it is not bi cause God is against
them that they sometimes feel depressed,
but because cf their diseased Ixxly. I sup
pose David, the psalraist, was no more
pious when he called on everything
lmman and angelic, animate and inani
mate, and from thowllake to hurricane,
to prniio God. tlirji w hen he said: "Out
of the depths of hell liavo I cried unto
thee, O, Lord;" or that Jeremiah was
any Letter when lie wrote his prophecy
tlian when lie wrote Lis "Lamentations;' '
valids, be playing a dead march on
the same organ with which now you
play a tcx-cata. My object at this
point is not only to emolliato the critic-isms
of the? well against those in ioor
health, but to show Christian Tioopio who
are atrabdanous what is the matter with
them. Do not charge against the heart
the crimes of another p rlion of your or
ganism. I Jo not conclude that loauKO
tho path of heaven is not arlxred with as
fine a foliage, or tho banks beautifully
snowed under with exquisite chrysanthe
mum;! as once, that therefore you are on
tho wrong road. The road will bring
you out at the same g ite whether you
walk with tho stride of an afhl. to or
come up on crutches. Thousands of
Christians, morbid alxnit their experi
ences, and morbid alxuit their business,
and morbid about J.he present, and mor
bid alx)iit the future, need the sermon I
am now preaching.
Another practical use of this subject is
for the? young. The theory is abroad that
they must first sow their wild oats, and
afterward Michigan wh at. Let me break
tho delusion. Wild oats are generally
town in tho liver, and they can never bo
pulled up. They so preoccupy that organ
that there is no room for the implantation
of a righteous crop. You see aged men
about us at f-.;0 erect, agiie. splendid, grand
old men. How much wild oafs did they
sow between IS years and :',0. None.
ansohitely none. (nl does not very ouen
honor with old age these who have in
early life sacrificed swine on the altar of
the bodily temple. He. lumber. O young
man, that while m after life, and after
years of dissipation, you may perhaps
have your heart changed, religion docs
not change the liver. Trembling and
staggering along these streets today are
men. all bent and decayed and prema
turely old. for tho reason that the-y are
paying for liens they put upon their
physical estate before thev were :'(). I5y
early dissipation they put on their body a
first mortgage, and a second mortgage.
ami a third mortgage, to the devil, and
these mortgages are now h; --ing foreclosed,
and all that remains ot their earthly
estate the undertaker will soon put out of
sight. Many vears ago. in fulfillment of
my text, a dart struck through their liver,
and it is there yet. God forgives, but
outraged physical law never, never, never.
That has a Sinai, but no Calvary. Solo-
man in my text knew what he was talk
ing about, lie had in earlv hfe Ix-en a
prolligato, anil he rises up on his throne
of worldly splonelor to .shriek out a warn
ing to all tho centuries. David, bad in
early life, but good in later life, cries out
with an agony of earnestness: "Remem
ber not the sins of my youth."
Stephen A. Douglas gave the name of
"squatter sovereignty" to those who went
out west and tixk possession of lands and
held them by right of preoccupation. Let
a flock of sins settle on vour heart before
you get to 25 years of age, ami the1 will
in all probability keep possession of it by
an internal squatter sovereignty. "1
promise to pay at the bank .;00 sire
month from date," says tho promissory
note. "I promise to ia-r mv life thirty
vears from date at the bank of the
rave," sa3-s every infraction of the laws
of your physical being.
What? Will a man's lxxlv never com
pletely recover from early dissipation in
this world? Never. How alxvat the
world to come? Perhaps Ged will fix it
up in the resurrection body so that it will
net have to go limping through all eter
nity; but get the liver thoroughly dam-
:ged and it will stay damaged. Physi
cians can it cancer ot tho liver, or
uirdening of the liver, or cirrhosis of the
liver, or inflammation cf the liver, but
Solomou puts all these pangs into one
figure and says: "Till tho dart strike
through his liver."
Hesiod seemed to have somo hint of
this when he represented Prometheus for
as crimes fastened to a pillar and an
agio feeding on his liver, which was re
newed again each 1112!. 1. to that the
devouring went on until fir.a'lv Hercules
slew the eagle and rescued Prometheus.
nd a. dissipated early life assures a
ferocity pecking away and c?aw ing away
year in and year out, and Death is the-
only Hercules who can break tho power
of its beak or unclench its claw. f-;o also
Virgil and Homer wrote fables about
vultures preying upon the liver, but
there are those here today with whom it
is no fable, but a terrific reality. .
That young man smoking cigarettes
and smoking cigars has no idea that he
is getting for himself smoked liver. That
young man has no idea that he has by
early tlisripatiem so deple-.ed his energies
that he wid go into the battle only half
armed. Napoleon lost Waterloo days
before it was fought. Had ho attacked
the Euglish army before it was re-enforeed
and attacked it division by division, he
might have won the day. but he waited
until he had only 100,000 men against
200,000. And here is a young man who,
if lie put all his forces against the regi
ment of youthful temptations, in the
ttrenglh of God might he drive them back,
but he is allowing themio be re-enforced
by tho whole army of midlife temptations,
and when all these forces are massed
against him and no Grouchy comes to
help him, and Bluchcr has come to help
his foes, what but immortal defeat can
await him?
Oh, my young brother, do not make
the mistake that thousands all around
you are inaking, in epening the battle
Against sin too late for this world too
late, and for tho world to come too late.
What brings that express train from St.
Lcuis into Jersey City three hours late?
The'y lost fifteen minutes early on tho
route, and that affected thorn all the way,
canvas the
idler's liver, the
gambler's liver,
might stop some
young man before ho comes to the same?
catastrophe, and the dart strike through
his own liver.
My hearer, this is the first sermon you
have heard on the Gosjxd of Health, and
it may lie the last you will ever hear on
tliat subject, and I charge you in the
name of God, and Christ, and usefulness,
and eternal destiny, take better care of
your health. When some of you die, if
your friends put on your tomlistone a
truthful epitaph, it will read: "Here lies
the victim of late suppers," or it w ill lx;:
I "Behold what chicken salad at midnight
wJl do for a man, or it will lx-: "Ten
cigars a day closed my earthly existe-nce, "
or it will lx: "Sat down in a cold draught
and this is tho result," or it will lx?: "I
iied of thin shws last winter," or it will
be: "Went out without an overcoat and
took this last chill," or it will lx-:
"Thought I could do at 70 what I did at
'20, and I am here," or it will le: "Hero
is the eonseejuence of sitting half a day
with wet foot." or it will lc: "This is
where I have stacked my harvest of wild
oats," or, instead of words, the stone
c utter will chisel for an epitaph on tho
tombstone two figure's: namely, a dart anel
a liver.
There is a kind of sickness that is lxau
t if ul when it eennes from over work for
God, or one's country, or one's own
family. I have seen wounds that were?
glorious. After the buttle of Antietam
in tiie- hospital a soldier in reply to my
question: "Where are you hurt?" un
covered his bosom and showed me a gash
that xiked like a badge of eternal
nobility. I have seen an empty sleeve
that was more lx-autiful than the most
muscular forearm. I have seen a green
shade; over the eye shot out in battle that
was more Lx-autiful than any two eyes
that had passed without injury. I have
seen an old missionary worn out with the
malaria of African jungles who looked to
me more radiant than a rubicund gym
nast. I have seen a mother after six
weeks watching over a family of chil
dren down N-itii scarlet fever, with a
glory around her pale and wan face that
surpassed the angelic. It all depends on
how .you got your sickness anel in what
battle your wounds. Frederick T. Fre
linghuysen, the pride of New Jersey aye
of tho nation and one of the pillars of
the Christian church, and fer nearlyfour
years practically president of the United
Suite s. although in tho ofiico of secretary
of state, in his determination to make
peace with all the governments on this
American continent, wore himself out,
and while his brain was as keen as it ever
was, and his heart beat as regularly as it
ever did. ho was according to the bulletin
of Ins physicians at Washington and
Newark, dying of hardening of the
liver. Satan, who does not like good
men, sent a dart through l is liver.
The last my dear friend for he was my
friend and my father's friend before m"e
the last La was seen in Washington
was in the president's carriage, leaning
his head ag: inst the ekotdder of the pres
ident on his way to the depot to take the
train to go home to die. Martyr of the
public service, he died for his country,
though he died in time of peace. In his
earlier life he was callexl the nephew of
his ur.clc, Theodore Frelinghuyson, but
ho lived to render for God and his coun
try a service thai will make othe-rs proud
to be his nephew, and which will ke-ep
his nam en the scroll of history as the
highest stylo of Christian statesman that
this century r,r any other century has
produced. I'ly Lord and my (Jo.!! if we
must get r ick and worn out, let it be in
thy service- and in the effort to make the
world gootl anel happy. Not in the serv
ice ef sin. No! No! One of the most
pathc-tie scenes that I ever witness, and
I often see it, is that of men or women
converted in the fifties or sixties or sev
enties wanting to be useful, but they so
served the world and Satan in tho earlier
part of their life that they have no phys
ical energy left for the service of God.
They sacrificed nerves, muscles, lungs,
heart and liver 011 the wrong altar. They
fought on the wrong side, and now.when
their sword is all hacked up and their
ammunition all gene, they enlist for
Emmanuel. When the high mettled cav
alry horse which that man spurred
into many a cavalry charge with
champing. bit and flaming eye and neck
clothe'd with thunder, is worn out and
spavined and ring boned and spring halt,
he rides up to the great Captain of our
salvation on tho white horso anil offers
his services. AVhen such persons might
have been through the good habits of a
lifetime crashing the battle ax through
hdnieted iniquities, they are spending
their days anel nights in discussing the
Ust way of breaking up their indi
gestion, and quieting their jangling
nerves, and rousing their laggard appe
tite, and trying to extract the dart from
their outraged liver. Better convened
late than never! Oh, yes; for they will
get to heaven. But they wiil go afoot
when they might have wheeled up tiie
stec-p hills of the sky in Elijah's chariot.
There is an old hymn that we used to
sing in the country meeting house when
I was a boy, and I remember how the
eld folks' voices trembled with emotion
while they sang it. I have forgotten all
but two lines, but those lines are the per
oration of my sermon;

Drawing a Sleijli.
Tliere is no service to which a horse
can be put that wears Iiim out so quickly
as drawing a sleigh. He is used to the
resistance of a buggy's weight, anel
when he finds tbat he lias nothing, so to
speak, behind him, he runs through him
self. People suppose that because a liv
eryman charges $0 an hour for a sleigh
during the few days of the sleiglung sea
son he is paying lumself for storage of
the cutter during the rest of the year.
That is not the case. Chicago News.
