Dr. Tul mage, who is now ucariug tbo antipo des on ids round tho world Journey, has seloctcd as tho hubject for bis ser mon through tho press today "Tho Rus tic Iu tho Palace," tho toxt boiug taken from Gcuesis xlv, 28, "I will goandsoo him beforo I die" Jacob had long sluco passod tho bun dred year milestone. In thoso times peo plo wcro distinguished for longevity. Iu tho oonturies af terward persons lived to great ago. Galen, tho most colobrat ed physician of his timo, took so littlo of nis owu mediciuo that ho lived to 140 years. A mau of uudoubtcd veraci ty ou tho witness stand iu England sworo that ho roinemborod an event 150 years boforo. Lord Bacou speaks of a countess who had cut threo sets of tectli and died nt 140 years. Joseph Crclo of Pennsylvania lived 140ycnrs. In 1857 n book was printed containing tho nunies of !I7 persons who lived 140 years and tho namc3 of 11 persons who lived 150 years. Amoug tho grand old peoplo of whom wo havo record was Jacob, tho shep herd of tho text. Hut ho had a bad lot of boys. They wcro jealous and ambi tious and every way unprincipled. Jo seph, however, soenied to bo nu excep tion, but ho had been gono many years, nml (tin tirnlmlitlifv ivnn that, hn was dead. As somotimes now in n houso you will find kept nt tho table n vacant chair, a plate, a knife, a fork, for Bomo deceased momber of tho family, bo Ja cob kopt in his heart a place for his be loved Joseph. Thero Bits tho old man, tho flock of 140 yoars in their flight having alighted long enough to leave tho marks of their clawou forehead and check and temple. His long beard snows down over his chest. His eyes aro somo what dim, nnd ho cau bco farther when they aro closed than when thoy aro open, for ho can see clear back into tho timo when beautiful Rachel, his wifo, won living nnd his children shook tho ori ental abode with their merriment. A Glorlou Vlalt. Tho centenarian is sitting dreaming over tho past when ho hears a wagon rumbling to tho front door. Ho gets up aud goes to tho door to boo who has ar rived, aud his long absent bous from Egypt como in aud announco to him that Joseph instead of being dead is liv ing in an Egyptian palace, with all tho invest ituro of prime minister, next to the king iu tho mightiest empiro of nil tho world I Tho news was too sudden and too glad for tho old man, and his cheeks whiten, aud ho has a dazed look, and his staff falls out of his baud, and ho would havo dropped had not tho hous caught him and led him to a louugo nnd put cold water on his xaco and fanned him a littlo. Iu that half delirium tho old man mumbles something about his sou Jo Beph. Ho says: "You don't mean Jo soph, do you my dear kou who lias been dead bo long? You don't moan Jo seph, do you?" But after they had fully resuscitated him aud tho uows was con firmed tho tears begin their winding way down tho crossroads of tho wrin kles, and tho Bunkeu lips of tho old man quiver, and ho brings his bent Augers togothor as ho says: "Josoph isyotnlivo. I will go aud boo him beforo I dio. " It did not tako tho old man a great whilo to got ready, I warrant you. Ho put on tho best clothes that tho shep herd's wardrobo could afford. Ho got iuto tho wagon, and though tho aged aro cautious and liko to rido slow tho wagon did not got along fast enough for this old man, and when tho wagon with tho old man mot Joseph's chariot com ing down to moot him, and Josoph got out of tho chariot and got into tho wag on and throw his nrms around his fa ther's neck, it .was an antithesis of royalty and rusticity, of Bimpliciy and pomp, of filial affection aud paternal love, which leaves us bo much iu doubt about whether wo had hotter laugh or cry that wo do both. So Jacob kopt tho resolution of tho toxt, "I will go and .... 1.1... l.nfnvn T lln duu mm uwuiw ...v. The I.ovo of Tareuts. What a strong and unfailing thing is parental attnchmontl Was it not almost timo for Jacob to forget Joseph? Tho hot Buns of many summers had blazed on tho heath; tho rlvor Nilo had over flowed and receded, overflowed nnd re ceded again nnd again; tho seed had been bowii and tho harvest reaped; stars roso and sot; years of plenty nnd years of famino had passed on, but tho lovo of Jacob for Joseph iu my toxt is over whelmingly dramatic. Oh, thnt is a cord that is not snapped, though pulled on by many decades! Though when tho littlo child expired tho parents may not havo been moro than 25 years of ago, and now thoy aro 75, yet tho vision oi the cradle, and tho childish face, and tho first utterances of tho infantilo lips aro fresh today, in npito of tho passage of a half century. Joseph was us fresh in Jacob's memory as over, though at 17 yoars of ago tho boy had disappeared from tho old homestead. I found in our family record tho story of nn infant that had died 60 years bofore, and I said to my parents, "What is this record, nnd what does it mean?" Their chief on Bwer was a long, deep sigh. It was yet to them a very tender sorrow. Whnt does that nil mean? Why, it menus out nl.lll,-mi (lnnnrtnil nrn (IlirH vet. mill tlmt cord of attachment reaching across the years will hold us until it brings us to-j pother in tho palace, as Jacob and Josoph were brought together. That ib ono tiling thnt makes old people die, happy. They realize it is ronnion with thoso from whom they havo long been separated. I I am often asked as pobtor, and ov cry pastor is naked tho question, "Will my children bo children in hnu Md j forever children?" Well, thero was no doubt a gieat change In Joseph from tho timo Jacob lost liim nnd tho timo when Jacob found him between tho boy 17 year of ago and tho man in mid life, his forehead dovolopcd with tho great business of state but Jncob was glad to gut back Joseph anyhow, and it did not mako much ditTereuco to tho old man whether tho boy locked older or looked younger. And- it will bo enough joy for that parent if ho can got back that sou, that daughter at tho gate of heaven, whether tho departed lovod ono shall como a choruborln full grown angelhood. Thero must bo a chango wrought by that celestial climate and by thoso supernal years, but It will only bo from loveliness to moro loveli ness and from health to moro radiant health. O parent, as you think of tho darling panting and wlilto iu membrane ous croup I want you to know it will bo gloriously bottorcd in that laud where thoro has never boon a death and whero all tho inhabitants will livo ou in the great future ns long as God I Joseph was Joseph, notwithstanding tho palace, and your child will bo your child not withstanding all tho raining splendors of everlasting noon. A (I rent Day. What a thrilling visit was thnt of tho old shepherd to tho primo minister JoscplM I seo tho old countryman seat ed iu tho palnco looking around nt tho mirrors, and tho fountains, and tho carved pillars, and, oh, how ho wishes that Rachel, his wife, was alive nnd hIio could havo como thoro witli him to Beo their son iu his great housol "Oh," Bays tho old mau within himself, "I do wish Rachel could bo hero to boo all this!" I visited at tho fnrmhousoof tho fathor of Millard Fillmore when tho son was presidont of tho United States, and tho octogenarian farmer entertain ed mo until 11 o'clock at night, telling mo whnt great things ho baw iu his sou's houso at Washington, and what Daniel Webster Bald to him, nnd how grandly Millard treated his father iu tho Whito House. Tho old man's faco was illumined with tho story until nl most tho midnight. Ho had just been visiting his sou nt tho capital. Aud I supposo it was something of tho samo joy that thrilled tho, heart of tho old Bliephord as ho stood' in the palaco of tho primo minister. It is n great day with you when your old parents como to visit you. Your littlo children stand around with great wido open eyes, wondering how any body could lie bo old. Tho parents can not stay many dnys, for they aro a littlo restless, aud especially at nightfall, bo causo thoy sleep better in their own bed, but whilo they tarry you somehow feel thero is a benediction in every room in tho house. Thoy aro a littlo feeble, and you mako it as easy as you can for them, nnd you realize they will probably not visit yon very often perhaps never ngnin. You go to their room after they havo rotired at night to bco if tho lights aro properly put out, for tho old peoplo understand cnndlo aud lamp better than tho modern apparatus for illumination. Iu tho morning, with real interest iu thoir health, you ask thorn how thoy rested Inst night. Joseph, iu tho his torical Bceuo of tho toxt, did not think any moro of his father than you do of your parents. Tho probability is, beforo they leavo your houso they half spoil your children with kindness. Grand father aud grandmother nro more leni ent and indulgent to your children than they over wcro with you. And what wonders of revelation iu tho bombaziuo pockot of tho ono aud the slcovo of tho other I Blessed is that homo whero Christian parents como to visit I What ever may havo been tho stylo of tho architecture when thoy came, it is a palaco beforo they leavo. If they visit you GO tinios, tho two most memorable visits will bo tho first and tho last. Thoso two pictures will hang in tho hall of your memory whilo memory lasts, and you will remember just how thoy looked, nnd whero they sat, and what they Bald, nnd nt what figure of tho carpot, and at what doorsill thoy parted with you, giving you tho final goodby. Do not bo embarrassed if your father como to town aud ho havo tho manners of tho shepherd, and if your mother como to town nnd thero bo iu her lint no sign of costly millinery. Tho wifo of tho Emperor Thcodosius said a wise thing when sho said, "Husbands, re momber what you lately wero nnd re momber whnt you uro aud bo thank ful." Joncpli nml Jacob. By this timo you nil uotico what kindly provision Joseph mado for his father, Jacob. Joseph did not say: "I can't havo tho old man around this pluco. How cluniBy ho would look climbing up theso marblo stairs and walking ovor these mosaics! Then ho would lw putting his hands upon somo of thoso frescoes. Peoplo would wonder whero that old greenhorn camo from. Ho would Bhock nil tho Egyptian court with his manners at tnblo. Besides that ho might get sick ou my hands, and ho might bo querulous, nnd ho might tnlk to mo ns though I wcro only n boy, when I am tho second mau in nil tho realm. Of courso ho must not suffer, and if thoro is famino in his country nnd I hear thoro is I will Bond him somo provisions, but I can't tako ninan from Padanaram nnd introduce him into this politu Egyptiau court. What a nuisance it is to havo poor rolationsl" Joseph did not say that, but ho rush ed out to meet his futhor with perfect abandon of affection, nnd brought him up to tho palaco, mid introduced him to tho emperor, nnd provided for nil tho rest of tho father's davs. and iiothiuu was , too good for tho old man whilo living, and when ho was dead Joseph, with military escort, took his fatwer'B re mains to tho family cemetery. Would God nil children wero as kind to their parents! If tho father iiavo largo property, aud ho bo wiso enough to keep it in his own numi', ho will bo respected by tho holrs, but how often it is when tho sou finds his futhor iu famine, as Joseph found Jncob in famine, tho young peoplo mako it very bard for th old taaul Thoy turi lo surprised ho eats with a kuifo instead of a fork. They nro chagrined at his antediluvian habits. They aro provoked becauso ho cannot hear as well ns ho used to, and when ho asks it ovor ngnin and tho son has to repeat it ho bawls iu tho old man's ear, "I hopo you hear thntl" How long ho must wear tho old coat or tin) old hat before thoy gut him a now iiuol How chagrined they aro at his independence of tim English gram mar! How long ho hangs mil Soveuty yoars, and not gono yet I Kovonty-llvo years, and not gono yet I Eighty years, and not gono yet I Will ho ever go? They think it of no uso to havo a doo tor In his last sicklies, and go up to tho drug store, aud get a dose of something that makes him worse, aud economize ou n cotllu, aud boat tho undertaker down to tho last point, giving a uoto for tho reduced amount, which they uover pay. I havo officiated atobsequios of aged peoplo whero tho family havo been so inordinately resigned to Provi dence that I felt liko taking my toxt from Proverbs, "Tho oyo that mocketh nt its father mid rcfusuth to oboy its mother, tho ravens of the valley shall pick It out, and tho young eagles shall eat it." Iu othor words, such nu iu grnto ought to havo n flock of crows for pallbearers! I congratulate you if you havo tho honor of providing for aged parents. Tho blessing of tho Lord God of Josoph nnd Jacob will bo lin you. Clonlni; l)nj- of l'encv. I rejoice to remember that, though my father lived in a plain houso tho most of his days, ho died iu a mansion pro vided by tho filial piety of a boii who had ncbiovod a fortune. Thoro tho octo genarian sat, and tho servants waited on him, nnd thoro wero plenty of horses nnd plenty of carriages to convey him, and a bowor in which to sit on long suuuncr nfternoous, dreaming over tho past, nnd thero was not u room in tho houso whoro ho was not wolcomo, nud thoro wero musicul instruments of nil sorts to regal o him, nud when life had passed tho neighbors camo out nml ex pressed all honor possible nud enrried him to tho villago Machpolnh nud put him down besido tho Rnchol with whom he had lived moro than half n century. Bharo your successes with tho old peo ple, Tho probability is tlmt tho princi ples thoy Inculcated uchloved your for tune. Give them a Christian porceutugo of kindly consideration.

Tho brutol world calls these self sacrificing ones peculiar or angular, but if you havo hnd as many annoyances ns thoy havo had Xuutippo would havo been nn nngel compared to you.

Women to Ho llouorril. Tu almost every circle of our kindred thero has been somo queen of self sacri fice to whom jeweled hand after jowol cd hand was offered iu marriage, but who staid ou tho old placo becauso of the sense of filial obligation until tho health was gone and tho attractiveness of personal presenco had vunished. Bru tal socioty may call such a ono by n nickname. God calls her daughter, nnd heaven calls her saint, nud I call her domestic martyr. A half dozen ordina ry women havo not ns much nobility ns could bo found iu tho smallest joint of tho littlo linger of her left hand.

As if to disgust us with liufilial con duct, tho Blblo presents us tho story of Micah, who stolo tho 1,100 shekels from his mother, and tho story of Absalom, Who tried to dethrone his fattier. But nil history is beautiful with stories of filial fidelity. Epamlnondas, tho war rior, found his chief delight iu reciting to his parents his victories. Thero goes iEneas from burning Troy, onhisFlioul ders Anehises, his father. Tho Athen ians punished with death any unfllial conduct.

I may say in regard to tho most of you that your parents havo probably vlsltod you for tho last timo or will soon pay you such a visit, and I havo wondered If they will ovor visit you in tho King's pnlaco. "Oh," you say, "I am iu tho pit of siul" Joseph was in tho pit. "Oh," you say,"I aiJn tho prison of mino iniquity!" Joseph was onco In prison. "Oh," you say," I didn't havo n fair chance. I wns denied ma ternal kitidiiessl" Joseph was deuiod maternal attendance. "Oh," you Bay, "Iain far awny from tho land of my nntlvltyl" Joseph was far from homo. "Oh," you Bay, "I havo been botrnyod aud oxasporatcdl" Did not Joseph's brethren sell him to a passing Ishmaol itish caravan? Yet God brought him to thnt emblazoned residence, and if you will tost his grace iu Jesus Christ you, too, viwl bo ompalaced.

Tho fact that iron in a very fluoly divided stute, when exposed to tho at mosphere, may oxidize so rapidly as to practically toko flro is pretty generally known. The circumstance is brought to mind by a newspaper wuif reporting nn inci dent of tho Alexandria bombardment in Egypt n dozen years ngo. A shell be longing to ono of tho English ships hud passed into a house without exploding, and tho residents subsequently request ed tho removal of tho uuwolcomo guest. A number of men wero accordingly sent ashore, and after somo considera tion ns to tlio best plan to bo pursued iu removing tho dangerous missile a feath er bed wns procured nnd tho shell firm ly enveloped iu it. It was then careful ly rolled down stairs nnd was probably thrown into tho sea. To show, how ever, that this was by no means con vincing ovidenco that its dangerous properties wero destroyed tho case was cited of an iron shell which had laid under water for aliout 200 yearB, and which, when brought to tho surface, was so completely houoycombed by tho sea water nud presented metal in so fiuo n htnto of division that, to tho horror of tho surprised finder, it gradually steamed fiercely nnd becamo rcdhot. From this it was argued as not at nil improbable that a similar occurrence might tako placo with thofchollof tho later period, nnd thnt if, in nfter years, it should bo found nnd brought to tho surfneo its finder might bo surprised in much tho samu way.
