In his first sermon of the New Year mt Brooklyn Bev. T. DeWitt Tnlmage tookhLstextfromLukexxiv.49:'4 Tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem until ye be endued with power from on high." Ue said: For a few month, in the providence of God, I have two pulpits, one in Brooklyn and the other in New York, and through the kindness of the print- ing press an ever wideningopportunity. To all such hearers and readers I come with an especial message. The time lias arrived for a forward movement such as the church and world have never seen. That there is a need for such a religious movement is evident from the fact that never, since our world has swung out among the planets, has there been such an organized and determined effort to overthrow righteousness and make the Ten Commandments obsolete and the whole Bible a derision. Meanwhile al coholism is taking down it victims by the hundreds of thousands and the political parties get down on their Itnecs, practically saying: 40, thou almighty Rum Jug, wo bow down be fore thee. t'ive us the offices, city. State and National. O, give us the of fices and we will worship thee forever and ever. Amen' The Christian Sab bath meanwhile, appointed for physical, mental and spiritual rest, is leing secu larized and abolished. As if the bad publishing houses of our own country had exhausted their literary filth, the French and Russian sewers have been invited to pour their scurrility and moral slush intdthe trough where our American swine are now wallowing. Meanwhile there arc enough houses of infamy in all our cities, open and un molested of the law, to invoke the om nipotent wrath which buried Sodom under a deluge of brimstone. The pandemoniac world, I think, has massed its troops and thej' are this mo ment plying their batteries upon familj circles, church circles political circles and national circles. Apollyon is in the saddle and riding at the head of his squadrons would capture this world for darkness and woe. That is one side of the conflict now raging. On the other side we have the most magnificent gos pel machinery that the world ever saw or Heaven ever invented. In the first place, in this country are more than eighty thousand ministers of religion, and, take them as a elass, more consecrated, holier, more consistent, more self-deny ing, more faithful men never lived. I know them by the thousands. I have met them in every city. I am told, not by them, liut by people out side our profession, people engaged in Christian and reformatory work, that the clergy of America arc nt the head of all good enterprises, and, whoever else fail, they may 1h depended on. The truth of this is demonstrated by the fact that when a minister of re ligion falls, it is so exceptional that the newspapers report it as something ftartling, while a hundred men in other callings may go down without the mat ter lwing considered asespecially worth mentioning. In the next place on our side of the conflict we have the grand est churches of all time and higher style of memlenhip, andmoreof them, and a host without numlier of splendid men and women who are doing their best to have this world purified.elevated, gospelized. Rut we all feel that some thing is wanting. Rut look at some of the startling facts. It is nearly 1.900 years since Jesus Christ came by the way of Beth lehem caravansary to save this world, yet the most of the world has been no more touched by this most stupendous fact of all eternity than if on the first Christinas night the beasts of the stall amid the bleatings of their own young had not heard the bleating of the Lamb that was to be slain. Out of the 1,800, 000,000 of the human race, 1,400,000,000 are without God and without hope in the world, the camel driver of Arabia, Mahomet, with his nine wives, having half as many disciples as our blessed Christ, and more people are worshiping chunks of painted wood and carved stone than are worshiping the living and eternal God. What is the matter? Mv text lets out the secret. "We all need more of the power from on high. Not muscular power, not logical power, not scientitie al power, not social power, not finan cial power, not brain power, bnt power from on high. With it we could ac complish more in one week than with out it in 100 years. And I am going to get it, if in answer to prayer, earnest and long continued, God will grant it to me, II is unworthy servant. Men and women who know how to pray, when you pray for yourself, pray for mc that I may be endued with power from on high. J would rather have it than all the diamond fields of Golconua, and all the pearls of the sea, and all the gold of the mountains. Many of the mightiest never had a touch of it. and many of the less than ordinary intellects have been surcharged with it. Rut power from on the level is not sufficient. Power from on high is what we need to take possession of us. Power straight from God. Supernatural power, omnipotent power, all conquering power. No more than one out of a thousand of the ministers have it con tinuously. Not more than one out of ten thousand Christians have it all the time. Given in abundance these last ten years of the nineteenth century would accomplish more for God and the church and the world than the previ ous ninety years of this century. A few men and women in each age of the world have possessed it- Caroline Fry, the immortal Quakeress, had it, and 300 of the depraved and suffering of New gate prison under her exhortation re pented and believed. Jonathan Edwards had it, Samuel Rudgett, the Christian merchant, had it and his benefactions showered the world. John Newton had it. Bish op Latiaier had it: Isabella Graham had it. Andrew .Fuller had it. The great evangelists, Daniel Baker and Doctor Nettleton and Truman Osborn and Charles G. Finney had it. In my boyhood I saw Truman Osborn rise to preach in the villiage church at Somer ville, N. J., and before he had given out his text- or uttered a word, people in the audience 'sobbed aloud with religions emotion. It was the power from on high. Once get it and nothing., can stand before you. Satan goes down. Caricature goes down. Infidelity goes down, vtorldliness goes down. AU opposition goes down. Several times in the history of the church and the world has this power from on high been demonstrated. In the seventeenth century, after a great season ox moral depression, this power from on high came down upon TiUot son and Owen and Flavel and Baxter and Banyan, and there was a deluge of mercy higher than the top of the highest mountains of sin. In the eighteenth century, in .England and America, re ligion was at low water mark. Wil liam Cowper, writing of the clergy of those days, said: Exscvt a tew with Eli's spirit ileat .Jfepbai and raineasaiay describe the ;s-i3,e5tSiis. Hobbea and Chmbb had doae their work. Bnt power from on Man unon both the Wesley and Lady Hunt ington, on the other side of the Atlantic, and upon William Tenaant and Gilbert Tenant and David Drainerd on this side of the Atlantic, awl both hemis phere felt the treacTbf a pa iflimnm, God. Coming U a later date, there may be here and there in this awKenee an aged man or woman who can remember Ke w York in 1931, when this power from on high descended moat woodromuy. It came jrooe pastors and congregations and theaters and commercial establish ments. Chatham Street Theater was the scene of a most tremendons re ligions a akening. The bar room of the theater was turned into a prayer room, and SM per sons were present nt the list meeting. For seventy successive nights religious services were held in that theater, and such scenes of mercy and salvation as will be subjects of conversation and congratulation among the ransomed in glory as long as Heaven lasts. Bnt I come to a later time 1857 remembered by many who are here. I remember it especially as I had just entered the office of the ministry. It was a year of hard times. A great panic had flung hundreds of thousand of people penni less. Starvation entered habitations that had never before known a -want. This nation in its extremity fell help less before the Lord and cried for par don and peace, and upon ministers and laymen the power from on high de scended. Engine houses, warerooms, hotel parlors, museums, factories from 12 to 1 o'clock while the operatives were resting, were opened for prayers and sermons, and inquiry rooms and Bur ton's old theater on Chambers street, where our ancestors used to assemble to laugh at the comedies, and all up and down the streets, and out on the docks and on the decks of ships lying at the wharf, people sang "All hail the power of Jesus' name," while others cried for mercy. A great mass meeting of Christians on a week day, in Jayne's Hall, Philadelphia, telegraphed to Fal- ton street prayer meeting, in New York, saying: "Whai, hath God wrought?" and a telegram went back saying: "Two hundred souls saved at our meeting to-, day." A ship came through the Nar rows into our harbour, the captain re porting that himself and all the crew had been converted to God betwen New Orleans and New York. In the busiest -marts of our largest American cities where the worshipers of mammon had been counting their golden beads, men began to calculate, "What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soulV In those days, what songs, what ser mons, what turnings to God, what re citals of thrilling experiences, what prodigals brought home, what burning tidings of souls saved, what serfdom of sin emancipated, what wild rout of the forces of darkness, what victories for the truth! What millions on earth and in Heaven are now thanking God for 1857, which, though the year of worse financial calamity, was the year of America's most glorious blessing. How do you account for 1857, its spiritual triumphs on the heels of its worldly misfortune? It was what my text calls the power from on high. That was thirty-three years ago, and though there have leen in various parts of the land many stirrings of the Holy Ghost, there has been no general awak ening. Docs it not seem to jou that we ought to have and may have the scenes of power in 1857 eclipsed by the scenes of power in 1SSU? The circumstances are somewhat similar. While we have not had National panic and universal prostration, as in 1857, there has been a stringency in the money market that has put many families of the earth to their wit's end. Large commercial in terests collapsing have left multitudes of employes without means of support. The racked brains of business men have almost or entirely given way. New il lustrations all over the land of the fact that riches have not only feet, on which they walk slowlj' as they come, but wings on which they speed when they go. Rrethren in the gospel ministry! if we spent half as much time in prayer as we do in the preparation of our ser mons nothing could stand before us. Wc would have the power from on high as we never have had it. Private mem- liership of all Christendom! if we spent half as much time in positive praj-er for this influence as we do in thinking about it and talking about it, there would not be secretaries enough to take down the names of those who would want to give in their names for enlist ment. Come! Come! All through the United States and all through Christendom and all around the world letus join hands in holy pledge that we will call upon God for the power. O, for the power from on high, the power that came on Pente cost; yea, on 10,000 Pentecosts. Such times will come in our day if we have the faith and the prayer and the conse cration. As the power from on high in 1857 was more remarkable in academies of music and lyceum halls and theaters than in churches, why not this winter of 1S91, in these two academics of music, places of secular entertainment. Why not expect and why not have the power from on high, comforting power,- arous ing power, convicting power, convert ing power, saving power, omnipotent power? My opinion is that in this cluster of cities by the Atlantic coast, there are now 500,000 people ready to accept the Gospel call, if, freed from all the conventionalities of the church, it were earnestly and with strong faith presented to them. In these brilliant assemblies there are hundreds who are not frequenters of churches, and who do not believe much, if at all, in the ministers of religion or ecclesiastical organizations. But God knows you have struggles in which you need help and bereavements in which you want solace and persecutions in whichyou ought to have defense, and -perplexities 1 in which you need guidance, and with a profound thoughtfulness, you standby the grave of the old year, and the cradle of the young year, wondering where you will be and what you wiU be when J. "rolling years shaU cease" to move." Power from on high descends upon them! Men of New York and Brooklyn, I offer I a -n V j m W joh wm uu iieavcn: rrom laeoay-yon came to these cities what a struggle you have had! I can tell from your careworn countenances and the tears in your eyes and the deep sigh yon hare just breathed that yon want reinforcement, and here it is, greater than Blacker when he rein-. forced Wellington, greater than the Bank of England, when last month H reinforced the Barings; namely, the God who through Jesus Christ k ready to pardon all yonr sins, comfort aU your sorrows, scatter all tout doubts and swing all the shining gates of heaven wide open before yonr redeemed spirit. fany of my hearers to-day are what the world calls, and what I would call, splendid fellows, and they seem, happy enough, and are jolly and oaligingaad if I were in trouble I would go to them with as much confidence as I would go to my father, if he were yet alive. Bnt when they go-telheir rooms at night or when the excitements of social and bariafi life are off, they are not con tent, and they want something better than this world can off er. Yearn agsynt the close of a religions service in Brooklyn Tabernacle,- a-gen- Xxt-Jf m-& relopmenteame forward with his wife and daughter, ami aaUtomeiaa courteous and elegant way: "Let introduce you to my wife and daughter who wish some counsel in regard to re ligions matters," and the three ant down. After I had conversed with the wife and danffhter. I turned to the nd aaii: "Petnane yon interest yourself these mat ters?" "None whatever," was the re ply, polite yet firm. Bnt before the meeting had closed I saw his hand lifted to his forehead, and his eyes closed, and I said: "Sir, hare yon not changed yonr mind and are yon not thoughtful on this anbjeetr He said: "I am; since coming to this seat, I have sought and fcr-nd Christ as my Saviour and I hare but one desire more and that is, before I leave this house to join my wife and daughter in making profession of the Christian re ligion. I have been known as on the wrong side long enough." What was it that bad come upon him? It was power from high. At the first communion after the dedi cation of our former church 318 souls stood up in the aisles and publicly espoused the cause of Christ. At an other time 4C0 souls: at another time 500, and our 4,500 membership were but a small part of those who within those sacred walls took upon themselves the vows of the Christian. What turned them? What saved them? Power from the level? No! Power from on high. Rut greater things are to be seen if ever these cities and ever this world is to betaken for God. There is one class of men and women in all these assem blages in whom I have especial interest, and that is those who had good fathers and mothers once, but they are dead. What multitudes of us are orphans! We may be 40, 50, 80 years old, but we never get used to having father and mother gone. O! how often we have had trou bles that we would liked to have told them, and wc always felt, as long as father and mother were alive wc had some one to whom we could go. Now I would like to ask you if yon think that all their prayers in "your behalf have been answered. "No," you ssy, "but it is too late, the old folks are gone now." I must courteously contradict yon. It is not too late. I have a friend in the ministry, who was attending the last hours of an aged Christian, and my friend said to the old Christian: "Is there no trouble on your mind?" The old man turned his face to the wall for a few moments and then said: "Only one thing: I hope for the salvation of my ten children, but not one of them is yet saved, yet I am sure they will be. God means to wait until I am gone. So he died. When my friend told of the circumstances eight of the ten had found the Lord, and I have no doubt the other two liefore this have fouBd Him. O, that the long postponed answers to prayer for you, my brother, for you my sister, migfc t this hour de scend in power from on high. The history of thete unanswered prayers for you God only knows. They may have been offered in the solemn birth hour. They may have been of fered when yon were doim with scarlet fever Or diphtheria, or membranous croup". They may have been offered some night when you were sound asleep in the trundle bed, and your mother came in to see if yon were rightly covered in the cold winter night. They may have been offered at that time which comes at least once in almost every one's (life when your father and mother had hard work to make a living, and-they feared 'that want would come to them and you. They may have been offered when the lips could no longer move and the eyes were closed for the long sleep. O, unanswered prayers, rise in a mist of many tears into a cloud, and then break in a shower which shall soften the heart of that man who is so hard he can not cry, or that woman who is ashamed to pray! O, arm chair of the aged, now empty and in the garret among the rubbish, speak out! O staff of the pilgrim who has ended his weary .journey, tell of the parental anxieties that bent over thee. O family Rible with story of births and deaths, rustle some of the time worn leaves and let know of the wrinkled hands that -"?"

Sixty squaws, with about the same number of papooses, came In to line Kidge agency from the hostile camp about six miles away and are being taken care of. There is great suffering among the hostile on account of scarcity of food and shelter. No moremeat of troops is projected. It is stated that General Forxythe is to be reinstated tilt the close of'the campaign. Every thing now points to a battle between the hostile and the friendly Indians who desire to leave the hostile camp and come to the agency. Red Cloud lias signified his tleire to return to the agency, but he is nearly Mind and no one will volunteer to lej-d him la. for the Rrules threaten the death of the first person that attempts to desert the hostile band. The older Indians want to come in but the young bucks insist on fighting. The cordon of troops is drawing tighter around the hostile, who are kept on guard night and day. Fire are being burned at night to prevent any one from escaping from their camp. General Miles has sent a peace commis sion to the hostiles and if they still re fuse to come in their camp will lie bom barded. Machine and shell guns are Inrirg placed on all sides of the camp for this purpose. General Miles is fast becoming impatient and if the Indians Jo not obey the order to come in he will attack them. The party sent to Wounded Knee to bury the dead India us returned late last night. They found and buried ighty-four bucks and sixty-three iquaws and children. It was also found that five had lieen buried by the In dian. In addition to this total of 152 others liave Wen carried away by h tile scouts, etc. sufficient to swell the nunilMT of dead Indians as a result of the battle of Wounded Knee to fully 200, with several others yet to die in the improvised hospital here. A little Indian baby girl about three months old, one of the youngest sur vivors of the battle of Wounded .Knee, who lay for three daj-s Iteside the dead body of its mother, has been adopted by Mrs. Allison Mailor, a wealthy lady of New York Citv. OPINION AT WASHINGTON. VrAsniNOTox, Jan. 7. Secretary Nobie. leing asked what aetion hail been taken on the recommendation of General Miles that the Indian agents of the South Dakota agencies le relieved from further duty and that their places lie filled by military officers, said that he did not care to discuss the matter further than to say that the subject hail not been mentioned to him by any one with authority to act in the matter. It is believed, however, that should (Jen- eral Miles recommendation lie sub mitted to him by thj President for his views, he would strongly oppose the transfer. The agents sought to lie re lieved are regarded as competent officers and any attempt to substitute a military for a civil supervision of the Sioux would undoubtedly lie met with vigorous opposition by the Interior Department officials. The Commissioner of Indian Affairs says that to the liest of his knowledge and belief the Sioux Indians of South Dakota are not starving, and that he has reasons to think that the statements regarding their destitution are grossly exaggerated. It is true that Congress has greatly reduced the appropriations for the Sioux and other tribes, and that the agreements made with them have lieen only partially kept Whose fault this is he could not saj he recent outbreak was, he thinks, partly due to the reasons above stated,, the failure of their crops and the religious craze. lie is opposed to the transfer of the control of the Indians to the War Department.

A young man recognized him as a lawyer in the Equitable building with whom he had an acquaintance. He tapped him on the arm and said: "Tak ing your constitutional?' "No, 1 am out on my daily drunk. I see you look surprised. Yes, you're right; I don't drink, but I have a way to get exhila rated on oxygen and so I take an air spree every day, I learned the trick by aecident a year ago. I live in Clinton place. As I had Iteen confined in the office every day, last Thanksgiving a year ago I found myself suffering from symptoms of pneumonia. I believed breathing would cure me, and one evening in walking from 1'ark place home I tried on how many exhalations I could walk to Clinton place, twenty five blocks of varying size, making a distance of nearly a mile and a half. "At first I found it difficult to hold my breath for more than a few paces, but by the time I reached Prince street my lungs were working better. I was in a profuse perspiration from head to foot. It seemed that I hnd discovered depths in my lungs I never thought existed. Every inhalation seemed to go down to iny very shoes. My feet felt light ami I seemed to eat up the dis tance. As I neared Clinton place I began to feel distressed. I know now that I did too much at first. Various colors flashed before my cj-es. When my breath went out I felt empty. On arriving at Clinton place 1 had a sharp shooting pain across my temples. When I stood still it seemed as if my head would break, liut this feeling gradually passed away ami in half an hour I was feeling splendid. I noted down the count of breaths that first night 93. "I kept up the practice from that day. and my lung capacity has so increased that last Thursday I walked the same distance on . breaths, having nearly double my breathing force. My chest measurement a year ago was :7 inches: now it is 40. 1 have not had a touch of pulmonic trouble since that day.' "Has yonr increased lung capacity been of any other practical benefit to your ''Yes. A few month ago I was in a hotel fire in the West. I was one of the last awakened. My room was fall of smoke. I put a wet towel over my month and through it drew one of my long breaths. On that single inhalation I made my way through the smoke filled halls. Had I taken one breath of the smoke I woald have become con fused, and would never have got ot alive. I am firmly convinced that :f people knew how to hold their breath there wonld be fewer deaths at fire. "I can now hold my breath over minute ana a nair, wnere a year ago forty-five seconds was my usual limit. My tendency to become round shoul dered has entirely disappeared.
