DoWitt Talma recently preached to the people at Waco, Tex, from the text: hen the Kim com manded, aad they brought Daaiel and east him into the den of lions." Daniel, tL ia Dr. Talmajo said: Darius was King of Babylon, and the young dm Daniel was so much a favorite with him that he made him a Prime Minister, or Secretary of State. But no man could gain such a high posi tion without exciting the envy and jeal ousy of the people. There wore dema gogues in Babylon who were so appre ciative of their own abilities that they were affronted at the elevation of this young mam. Old Babylon was afraid of young Babylon. Tho taller the cedar, the more apt it is to be riven of the lightning. These demagogues asked tho King to make a decree that anybody tbat made a petition to any ono except the King within thirty days should bo put to death. King Darius, not suspecting foul play, makes that decree. Tho dem agogues have accomplished all they want, because they know that no one can keep Daniel from sending petitions before God for thirty days. So far from being afraid, Daniel goes on with his supplications thrco times a day, and is found on his housetop mak ing prayer. Ho is caught in tho act, Ho is condemned to bo devoured by the lions. Bough executioners of the law seize him and hasten him to tho cavern. I hear tho growl of tho wild beasts and I see them pawing the dust and as they put their mouths to tho ground tho solid earth quakes with their bellow ing. I sec their eyes roll and I almost hear the fiery eyeballs snap in the dark ness. These monsters approach Daniel. They have an appetite keen with hunger. With ono stroke of thoir paw or ono snatch of their teeth they may leavo him dead at the bottom of tho cavern. But what a strango welcome Daniel re ceives from these hungry monsters. They fawn around him, they lick his hand, they bury his foot in their long mane. Tbat night ho has calm sleep with his head pillowed on tho warm nocks of tho tamed lions. But not so well does Darius, tho King, sleep He loves Daniel, and hates this stratagem by which ho has been con demned. All night long the King walks tho floor. Ho can not sleep. At tho least sound he starts and his flesh croons with horror. Ho is impatient for the dawning of the morning. At tho first streak of tho daylight Darius hastens forth to see tho fato of Daniel. Tho heavy palace doors open and clang shut long before the people of tho city waken. Darius goes to the den of lions; he looks in. All is silent His heart slops. Ho feels that tho very worst has happened; but gathering all his strength ho shouts through the rifts of iho rock: "O. Dan iel! is tho God whom thou servest con tinually altlo to deliver thee?" There conies rolling up from the deep darkness a voico which says: "O, King! live for ever. "My God has sent His angel to shut the lions' mouths that they have not hurt me." Then Daniel is brought out from tho den. Tho demagogues aro hurled into it and no sooner have they struck the bottom of tho den than thoir flesh was rent and thoir bones cracked, and their blood spurted through tho rifts of the rock, and as the lions make tho rocks iremhlo with their roar they annouueo to all ages that while God will defend His ftcople tho way of the unjjodly shall perish. Learn first from this subject that tho greatest crime that you can commit in tho eys of many is tho crime of success. What had Daniol dono that he should be flung to tho lions? Ho got, to be Prime Minister. Thoy could not for give him for that and behold in that J toward Damascus a touch of unsanctihcd human nature as seen in all ages of tho world. So long as you aro pinched in poverty, so long as you are running the gauntlet between landlord and tax gatherer, so long as you find it hard work to educate your children, there aro eoplo who will say: "Poor man, I am sorry for him; ho ought to succeed, poor man!'' But after a while tho tido turns in your favor. That was a profitable in vestment you made. You boffght at just the right timo. Fortune becomes good humored and sin-lcs upon j'ou. Xow you are being in some department successful, your success chills some one. Those men who used to sympathize with you stand along tho street and they scowl at you from under the rim of their hats. You have moro money or more influence than they have, and you ought to be scowled at from under the rim of their hats. You catch a word or two as you pass by them. "Stuck-up," saj-s one. "Got it dishonestly," says an other. "Will burst soon," says a third. -Every stono in your now house is laid on their hearts. Your horses' hoofs went over their nervos. Every item of your success has been to tfcam an item of discomfiture and de spair. Just as soon as in any respect you rise above your fellows, if you are moro virtuous, if you aro moro wise, if you aro more influential, you cast a shadow on tho prospect of others. The road to honor and success is within reach of the enemy's guns. Jealousy says: -;iay aown or 1 11 f.nocK you down." "J do not like you," said the snowflake to tho snowbird. "Why don't you like me"" said tho snowbird. "O," said tho snowflake. "you aro going up and I am coming down." Young mer chants, young lawyers, young doctors, young mechanics, young artists, young farmers, at certain limes thoro were those to sympathizo with you, but now tbat you aro becoming master of your particular occupation or profession, how is it now j'oung lawyers, young doctors, young artists young farmers how is it now? The greatest crime that you can commit is the crime of sute.s. Again, my subject impresses mo with the value of decision of character in any department Daniel know that if ho continued his adherence to the religion of tho Lord he would bo hurled to-the lions, but having set his compass well he sailed right on. For the lack of that element of de rision of character so eminent in Daniel many men are ruined fot this world and ruined for tho world so come. A great many at forty years of ago are mot set tled in any respect because they have not been able to mako up their mind. Perhaps they will go West Perhaps they will go East Perhaps they will " mot Perhaps they will go North. Per haps they may go South. Perhaps they will not Perhaps thoy may'make that investment in real estate or in railroads.

You cam afford in this matter of religion to be laughed at What do you care for the scoffs of these men, who are affronted because you will not go to ruin with them? When the grave cracks open under their feet, and grim messengers push them into it and eternity comes down hard upon their spirit and conscience stings, and hope less ruin lifts them up to hurl them down, will they laugh then? 1 learn also from my subject tbat men may take religion into their worldly business. Daniel had enough work to do to occupy six men. All the affairs of state were in his bands questions or finance, questions of war, of peace, all international questions were for his bcwoment or adjustment Ho must have had a correspondence vast beyond all computation. There was not a man in all the earth who had moro to do than Daniel, the Secretary of State, and yet wo find him three times a day bow ing before God in prayer. There aro men in our day who have not a hun dredth part of Daniel's engagements, who say they are too busy to bo relig ious. They havo an idea somehow tbat religion will spoil thoir worldly occupa tion, tbat it will trip tho accountant's pen or dull tho carpenter's saw, or con fuso tho lawyer's brief, or disarrange tho merchant's store shelf. They think religion is impertinent They would like to havo it very well seated beside them in church on tho Sabbath, to find tho place in tho psalm book, or to nudgo them awako when they get sleepy under tho didactic discourse; or they would liko to leave it in tho pew on Sabbath evening, as they go out closing the door, saying: "Good night religion; I'll be back next Sunday! " But to havo religion go right along by them all through life, to havo religion looking over their shoulder when they are mak ing a bargain, to havo religion take up a bag of dishonest gold and shako it, and say: "Ha! ha! where did you get that?" They think that is an imncrti- nont religion. They would liko to have a religion to help them when thoy aro sick, and when tho shadow of death comes over them they would like to havo a religion as a sort of night-key with which to open tho door of Heaven, but religion under other circumstances thoy take to bo an impertinence. Now, my friends, religion never robbed a man of a dollar. Other things being equal, a mason will build a better wall, a cal- inetmaker will make a better chair, a plumber will mako a better pipe, a law yer will mako a hotter plea, a merchant will sell a better bill of goods. I say other things being equal. Of courso when religion gives a man a now heart it does not propose to give him a new head, or toinlelloctualize him or to change a man's condition when his or dinary state is an overthrow of tbo philosophical theory that a total vacuum is impossible; nut tho moro letters you navo to write, tho moro burdens you havo to carry, tho moro miles you have to travel, tho moro burdens you havo to lift the moro engagements you havo to meet tho moro disputes you havo to settle, tho moro opportunity you havo of lwing a Christian. If you have a thousand irons in tho fire, j'ou have a thousand moro oppor tunities of serving God than if you had onlj' ono iron in tho fire. Who so busy as Christ? And yet who a millionth part as holy? The busiest men tho best men. All tho persons converted in Scripture were busy at tho time of their being converted. Matthew attending to the custom house dut.es; tho Prod igal Son feed ng swine; Lydia selling purple; Simon Peter hauling in the net from tho sea; Saul spurring his horso going down on his law business. Busy! busy! Daniel with all tho affairs of state wo-ghing down upon his soul, and yet thrco times a day worshipping tho God of Heaven. Again: I loam from this subject that a man may lako rel gion into his poli tics. Daniel had all tho affairs of state on hand, yet a Ciiristiau. He could not have kept his elevated position unless ho bad been a thorough politician; and yet.all the thrusts of officials and all tho dangers of disgraco did not mako him yield ono iota of his high-toned relig ious pr.nciple. He stood before that age: he stands beiiro all ages, a speci men of a Christian politician. So there havo been in our day, and in the days of our fathers, men as eminent iu the service of God as they havo been eminent in tho service of tho state. Such was Benjamin F. Butler, Attorney General of New York, in the timo of your fathers. Such was John McLean, of Ohio. Such was Georgo Briggs, of Massachusetts. Such was Theoloro Frelinghuysen, of New Jersey. Mon faithful to the state, at tho samo timo faithful to God. It is absurd to expect that men who havo been immersed in political wick edness for thirty or forty years shall como to reformation; and our hope is in tho young men who are coming up that thoy have patriotic principlo and Chris tian principle side bysido when they como to tbo ballot box and cast their first vote, and that they swear allegi ance to tho government of Heaven as well as to the government of the United States. We would "havo Bunker Hill mean less to them than Calvary, and Lexington mean less to them than Bethlehem. But bocauso there are bad men around the ballot box is no reason why Chris tian men should retreat from the arena. Tbe last timo you ought to give up your child or forsake your child is when it is surrounded by a company of Choctaws; and the last timo to surrender the bal lot box is when it is surrounded by im purity and dishonesty and all sorts of wickedness. Daniel stood on a most unpopular platform. He stood firmly, though the demagogues or the day hissed at him and tried to overthrow him. Wo must carry our religion into our politics. But there are a great many men who are in favor of taking religion into National politics who do not see the importance of taking it into city politics; as though a man were intelligent about the welfare of his neighborhood, and had no concern about his own home. Religion would drive out all base per sonalities from politics. You have a right to discuss men's polities and de nounce their political sentiments or re ceive them, as yon will; but yon have no right to assail their private charac ter, as is dome every autumn. That ia not carrying religion into politics. Now you can, always tell without asking in any contest what candidate I will vote for. It is always for tbe man who is ost badgered and moat abased oeep tor the hungry momtters!

With his nostril be scattered tho ashes on tbe domestic hearth. Yon havo had trial after trial, misfortune after misfortune, lion after lion; and yet they have never hurt you if you put your trust in God, and they never will hurt you. They did mot hurt Daaiel and they can not hurt you. The Persians used to think that spring rain falling into sea shells would turn into pearls; and I have to tell you tbat the tears of sorrow turn into precious gems when they drop into God's bottle. You need be afraid of nothing, nuttlnw your trust in God. Even death, that AGRICULTURAL HINTS TO TRAIN TOMATOES.

Ferhaps it may even pay him to put up a simple trellis such as shown ia Fig. L This method was suggested to us by Mr. John M. Stabl, who believed tbat trellising a patch in this manner monster lion whoso den is tho world's sepulchre, and who puts bis paw down amid thousands of millions of the dead, can not affright you. When in olden times a man was to get the honors of knighthood, bo was com pelled to go fully armed the night be fore, among tbe tombs of tbo dead, carrying a sort of spear, and then when tho day broko ho would come forth, and, amid tho sound of cornet and great parado, he would get tho honors of knighthood. And so it will bo with tbo Christian in tho night before Heaven, as fully armed with spear and helmet of salvation, he will wait and watch through the darkness until the morning dawns, and then bo will take the honors of Heavon amid that great throng with snowy robes, streaming over seas of sapphire. THE CHINESE WAY. 9yiBC mJnw'OAlttb SsrPanaVeKcmT riu. 1. How Telegraph OMcm Are Managed In the Celestial Kraplrw. As usual in all officially-conducted enterprises in China, (and the' Chinese Government acknowledges no union of capitalists for largo enterprises apart from official management), little en couragement is given to the general public. In tbe caso of the telegraph, tho charges aro high, averaging about ono shilling a word, more or less, ac cording to-distanco. This tariff is, with a thrifty pooplo liko tho Chinese, quite prohibitivoaas far as social messages aro concerned; and for business purposes its uso is confined to tho few wealthy mer chants in tho larger towns, and by them it is used very sparingly. In the less important places it is not open to tho public at all, although tho needful sta tions and operators aro to bo found there. At one such station, in tbo town of Shin-tan in Hupeh, we once tried to send a message. After much inquiry we at last found our way to tbo Tienpao cbu, or "lightning dispatch office," and were shown to an old out-of-the-way two-storied Chinese dwelling house. Climbing up an inconveniently steep laddor wo reached tho upperstory, which consisted of a roomy lott with a rickety loose plank floor and no ceiling beneath tho unccmented ti'o root The apart ment had every appearance of not hav ing been swept or garnished since tho day it was constructed. As our oyes gradually grew accus tomed to the dim lightadmitted through the small paper windows, wo perceived in one corner, a curtained trestlo bed stead illuminated by a diminutive opium smoker's lamp, in another corner a tole grapMc signaling instrument with a silk cover to protect it from thodirt, and a couple of tbe usual stiff-back woolen Chineso chairs. A few clothes-trunks and a tumble-down wardrobe completed the furniture. As wo entered, a man of thirty, handsomely dressed in silk, aroso from the bud and welcomed us to a seat. He received us with great effu sion and. to our surprise, seemed really pleased to see his haunt invaded by a barbarian. A lad of eighteen or less, also gayly dre-sed in silk, produced tbe hosp. table tea, and conversation com mented. 1 be manager could not accept my message without a card from the Taotai, or Governor, who resided forty miles d slant and with which ho ad vised mo to provido myself on a further occasion. Tho lad, who turned out to be an operator trained in Shanghai, had merely to report on the condition of the wires, which be did daily by telegraph ing to the next station tho English words "All right" The rest of the En glish he once knew be appeared to havo forgotten. As to tbe cider man, the manager, a sociable Soo-Chow man, he talked of h.mself as an exile among savages with no society, no occupation, and no amusements. He thoroughly enjoyed a visit from ono who came from the civilization of Shanghai, and seemed deeply to regret our departure. He par ticularly lamented his hard lot in that having bought 2,000 English words of a nativo teacher of Eng.ish in Shanghai, at a cost of S2 per hundred, (so ho ex pressed himself), be had now only uso for two words, and had almost entirely forgotten tho remaining 1,9S.

The trellis consists simply of a row of stakes at a reasonable distance apart on each side or tbe row of plants, and strands of wire strung along tho posts, at say eight inches apart from each other. A moro detailed description was furnished us by Mr. Stabl, but our printers, unfortunately, havo lost or mislaid the manuscript Ono of the State experiment stations reports satisfactory results from the use of a trellis put up like the ono de scribed with this exception, tbat pieces of six-inch board in single line, wore FIRESIDE FRAGMENTS.

When in full growth, and loaded with fruit in all stages of development, a row of to mato plants thus trained will always .ttract attention, and may provo one of the "sights" of the garden. Other simple styles of trellis are shown in Figures 2 and "3. Tho former is made by setting thrco stakes, five or iix feet high, in a circle around each plant, and fastening a few barrel hoops to them as shown in engraving. The other consists of two uprights, and thrco or four cross sticks or slats Bailed to them.

The plan shown does not mean that one has to bitch tho cow by the tail to hold her while he milks. The device is designed to be used in tbe stables to keep tbe row's tail out of tho pail and out of the milker's face, whfch is usually the sec ond place sho wishes to put it. It is made of a small piece of hickory with a long, deep notch sawed in one end. A clinched nail or screw keeps it from splitting further.

Men's wits were set to work, and a triumph of ingenuity was produced tho brank, tho , scold's or gossip's bridle, which had the immense advantage over the clicking or ducking-stools of compelling the vic tim to be silent, a punishment almost fiendish in its conception. Its inventor is unknown; but he probablj- bailed from tho "north countree," as "branks" is a northern name for a kind of bridle. It nover seems to bavo been a legal punishment, as the ducking stool was ; but, nevertheless, it obtained, and there arc many examples . ia existence.
