Dr. Welton's Sermon on "The iiaml
- writing on The Wall."
Omaha, March 12th.
To tho Editor of the Republican:
All of the large congregation who
listened "Monda' night to the sermon
of the Itev. Mr. Weltou may not have
been moved as I was to go straightway
and "search the scriptures to see if
these things bo so." To do this is ac
cording to the adjuration of the good
man as weil as the good book, and if
it were more generally heeded the les
son would be better learned and more
profitably applied. The theme was the
feast of Belshazzar and its incidents.
It was selected evidently on account
of the Illustration furnished by the
word "Tekcl Thou art weighed in
the balances, and art found wanting."
The good qualities of the audience
were put into tho balances and the
scale turned against them until Christ
was placed therein and "tipped the
beam'" in their favor. This was all
very well, and very ingeniously put,
and must have moved the large con
gregation to deep thoughtfulness upon
the portentous theme.
My own contemplations, however,
wandered in a different direction.
"Was it, indeed, true that this sublime
spectacle was ever witnessed ? Was
Belshazzar an entity, or was he a
myth? Was it intended as a rebuke,
and what had he done to provoke it?
Whence came the writing and
whence the power of Daniel to inter
pret it? Was it an interposition of
divine power, and did this power die
with Daniel? Was such direct inter
position necessary the but not neces
sary now? And why? The theory
advanced, as Iunderstoodjit, was thai
the history revealed a direot manifes
tation of the power of God ; was it
true that the great Being who
made yonder star so far away that a
ray of light st.rling thence requires a
million years to reach this planet, and
who completely fills all tho interme
diate space and all of the boundless
space beyond, assumed parts and pro
portions, and visited this earth, a por
tion of his universe less in size, com
paratively, than the point of a cambric
needle, to bo present at the feast of
this Chaldean King? Now, does not
this view belittle Jehovah and fail to
impart the most profitable lesson?
If it shall bo found that an intelli
gence far less than this aud entirely
mundane in its character produced
these phenomenan, it will not surely
bo deemed profan-r and will be far eas
ier of humau comprehension. Dan
iel, ch. 5:5 reads : "In the same hour
eunio forth fingers of a man's hand
and the king 9aw the
purt of the hand that wrote." The
king wad alarmed, uot.becaue of the
manner of the communication, but
on account of its import. This was
tilearlv not God's hand : nor was it
the hand of an angel, as the term is
generally understood, but simply the
hand and the Aimers of a man. But
in the 24th verse it is written. "Then
was the part of the hand sent from
liim; and this writing was written."
From whom was tho word sent? In
the verso iniuiediately preceding
Daniel iaaddreesingBelshazzar in tho
second person. Is the lauguage of
verso 24 spoken by the historian of
Daniel or by Daniel himself to God?
If the latter, then is it true that God
faeufc a man or gart of a man aud re
vealed only so much of him as was
necessary to hold tho chalk or the
marking implement? It is the gen
erally accepted belief that God uses an
gels as his instruments. But if in
this instance he employed a man,
whence came he? Had he lived and
died, aud in spirit life did he await
God's bidding? Was this a case of
partial "materialization," of which
bomelhing is heard in our day? If
the historian used this lauguage of
and concerning Daniel, as he seems to
have done then to what extent does it
confirm the spiritualistic theory that
the substance for materializations is
"sent from" the medium ; another
though t,if I am not trespassing too far :
In Belshazzar's extremity his wife
brings to him the knowledge of the
fact that "There is a man in thy king
dom in whom is the spirit of the holy
gods; wisdom of the
gods was found in him. (Ch. 5, verse
11.) I have heard of thee
that the spirit of the gods is in thee."
(verse 14.) Now, what were these
gods? Are they the same mentioned
by the woman of Endor? "And the
woman said unto Saul, 'I saw gods as
cending out of the earth.'" (1, Sam.
2S, 13). Would it aid in the interpre
tation of these papers to use a large or
small G? Are these the same refer
red to by Milton?
"Millions of creatures walk the earth un-
ccca,
Uotb. when we sleep and when we wake."
If it be said there is beyond these
the one only and true God, the author
of all things, then I ask is He still be
yond, tho intelligence, brought to view
in the phraso "Let us make man,"
(Gen. 1:26;) or in this, "and the Lord
God said behold the man is become as
one of us. knowing good from evil?"
lGen.3:22.) Inquirer.
Onr Own Heathen.
White the women of this country
are seriously considering the question
whether or net they are tho slaves of
tyrant man, thej' have evideutly not
grasped the startling fact that at least
half a million of them are heathens.
This unwelcome announcement isdue
to Rev. Sheldon Jackson, a Denver
minister, whoso travels have been
somewhat extensive, and whose op
portunities for obtaining information
concerning the degradation of women
in America have very clearly been
improved.
His statistics bear the impress of re
liability, and 6eem to suggest a wider
field for the operations of philanthrop
ic ladies than any that has lately been
presented. Leaving outof theaccouut
all thedepraved women of civilization
Dr.-Jackson estimates that the starry
folds of the American flag float over
Ave hundred thousand females who
are absolutely heathen. First among
these are the women of Arizona, who
are descendants of the once powerful
Aztecs, and who still worship the sun
with all the solemnity that character
ized the devotions of that wonderful
people. Next come the native women
of New Mexico, who are but slightly
removed from positive pagan
ism, and whose religion seems to
chiefly consist in personal laceration
and torture. The two thousand fe
males of Alaska are referred to as the
most depraved of mortals. They
worship any article whose origin or
construction is beyond their compre
hension ; they sell their offspring for
a mere pittance; they speedily put an
end to their deformed children, and
they throw their aged and infirm in
to the sea without any ceremony
whatever. Here is a chance for the
missionary to enter in and distinguish
himself on American soil and under
Govermental protection.
In his classification of heathen wo
men Dr. Jackson has included tho fe
male population of Mormondom, and
although his views in ihis respect will
meet with opposition it must be con
fessed that he produces some forcible
illustrations of tho degradation to
which many of these women have
been reduced. He mentions a case
that came under his personal observa
tion of a Mormon elder, who was the
proud possessor of fourteen wives, one
an Americau lady, one an English,
one a Germau, one a Norwegian, one
an Irish, and one a negress, the na
tionality of the others not having
been ascertained. As the elder's house
consisted of but two rooms, he invar
iably occupied it with his latest and
most favored wife, forcing the others
to seek lodgings in stables and wagons
as best they could.
These facts, with others justasstern
and startling, Dr. Jackson is present
ing to the people in the hope that
they will awaken the Cnristiau ladies
of this country to a sense of the deg
radation which is to bo found within
our borders, and arouse them to some
action toward its relief. Cincinnaii

St. Zouis Post.
Personal Appearanco of Christ.
Jesus Christ is described by Lentul
us, a cotemporary, as o tall, well-proportioned
man, straight in stature, of
nearly six feet in height. His hair
was the color of new wine from the
roots to the ears, and thence to the
shoulders it curled and fell down to
tho lowest parts of him ; upon the
crown of his'head it parted iu two, af
ter the manner of the Nazerenes. His
forehead was flat and fair, his nose
was large, his eyes and mouth well
proportioned. His face was neither
round nor sharp, and resembled his
mother's, being adorned with a very
graceful Vermillion. His beard was
thick aud forked and of the color of
his hair, and was worn long, the scis
sors uever having been used upon his
head, nor had tho hand of any one
touched him except that of his moth
er when ho was a child. Ilia neck
was not stifl, nor was his carriage
proud. He stooped a little with his
head. His hands were large and
spreading and his arms were very
beautiful. There was an air of seren
ity in the countenance which attract
ed at once the love and reverence of
all beholders! In his reproof he was
terrible, but in his exhortations ami
able and courteous. He was never
seen to smile, but often was observed
to weep. Gravity, prudence, meek
ness and clemency were strongly de
picted in his countenance, aud ho was
considered tho handsomest man in
existence.
Henlthfulness of Lemons.
When people feel the need of an ac
id, If they would let vinegar alono
and use lemons or eour apples, they
would feel just as wellj satisfied aud
receive no injury. And a suggestion
may not come amiss as a good plan
when lemons are cheap in the mark
et. A person should, at these times,
purchase several'dozen at once and
prepare them for use in tho warm
days of spring and summer, when ac
ids, especially citric or malic, or the
acids of lemon and ripe fruits are so
grateful and useful. j Press your hand
on tho lemon, aud roll it back and
forth briskly on the table to
make it pqueeze the juice into
a tumbler never into tin ; strain out
all the seed as they give a bad taste.
Remove all the pulp from the peels,
and boil in water a pint to a dozen
pulps to extract the acids. A few
moments' boiling is enough, then
fetralu the water with the juice of the
lemons; put a pound of whitesugar to
a pint of the juice ; boil ten minutes;
bottle it, and your lemonade is ready.
Put a teaspoouful or two of this sirup
into a glass of water, aud you have a
cooling healthful drink. Exchange.
A Caterpillar Killer.
M. Dominou, of Roziere, Fiance,
has invented an instrument for kill
iug caterpillars, described as follows:
This instrument consists of a brass
tube four feet long and about an inch
in diameter, enclosing another of the
same length, which is worked by tel
escopic actiou. To one end of this
tube is affixed an India rubber pipe of
equal length, witli a mouth-piece. At
the opposite end is a receptacle for oil,
with a fine spray nozzle. Petroleum
being the most deadly liquid known
for the destruction of caterpilars, is
used. By means of this pipe the nest
is reached and the nozzle introduced.
The operator places the mouth-piece
of the India rubber tube to his mouth
and a spray of oil is blown into the
nest, causing the immediate-destruction
of the insects without doing any
injury to the tree. This little inven
tion has been adopted by the French
Minister of public works . for the
cleansing of the trees on the public
highways, after having been tested
by the engineer in chief iu charge of
the public thoroughfares in the De
partment of the Seine.

Keeping ltos.es in Bloom.
As soon as they have formed their
first flowers in the open ground,
pinch off the end of the first shoot,
aud as soon as the rose is fully open
ed, pick it oil. No rose should be left
to fade upon the bufah, as when so left
it exhausts the plant in the formation
of seed. As tho plants grow, inch
back the ends of the shoGts when
they have grown si:-: inches, and rub
out all puny shoots, thus keeping the
plants in a rounded, open bush form.
If strong shoots alone are left to grow
they will soon control the strength of
the plant, and the flowers will be few
and often of imperfect form. Should
the season be hot or dry, a mulch of
fine fresh grass or saw dust, or moss
from the woods, should be placed all
over the soil, three inches deep, aud
at night watered thoroughfy, not
sprinkled, but wet like a day'6 rain.
The Hybrid Perpetuals or Noisettes
require this pruning or pinching,
back, more promptly than the Teas,
Bengals, or Bourbons. F. Ii. Elliott.

Charcoal for Fowls
The following experiment given in
the American Cultivator, will bring
fresh to mind what many know as to
the value of charcoal, not only when
fattening turke3?s but other fowls. It
will also bo found a good corrective
when used occasionally in winter,
when the fowls aru confined to their
quarters. The experiment was as fol
lows: Four turkeys were confined in a
pen and fed on meal, boiled potatoes
and oats. Four others of the same
brood, were also at the same time con
fined in another pen, and fed daily on
the same articles, but with a pint of
very finely pulverized charcoal mixed
with their food, mixed meal and boil
ed potatoes. They had also a plenti
ful supply of broken charcoal in their
pen. The eight were killed on the
same day, aud thero was a difference
of a pound and a half each in favor of
the fowls which had been supplied
with charcoal, they being much the
fattest, and the meat greatly superior
in point of tenderness and flavor.

stright at the creature's eyes. This
leads to the destructiou of some ani

young. A good size is eight or nine
feet, counting nothing beyond the
thick part of the tail. Tho market
price for finished skins in New York
is $36 to $48 per dozen. They are used

A LOUISANA PLANTER SAYS :
" 3Iy plantation is in a malarial district. For
several years I could not make half a crop on
account of sickness. I employ one hundred and
fifty hands, often half of them were sick. I visa
nearly disconrasred when I ocean the nse o
TUXX'S 1PI1.L.S. 1 used them as a pre
caution as well as a cure. The result was
marvellous ; my laborers became hearty, robust,
and happy, and I have had no further trouble.
With these Pills I would not fear to live ia tho
Okofonokee swamp."
E. IUVAL, Batoc Saea, La, '
"BEST PILL IN EXISTENCE."
"I have used your Piixs for Dyspepsia, Weak
Stomach and Iervoasne&!, and can say I never
liad any thiuq to do me eo much good in the
vrav of medicine. They are as good a3 you rep
resent them. I recommend them as the Best
Pill in existence, and do all I can to acquaint
others with their good merits."
