OD TOLD JONAH
to go to Nineveh
on an unpleasant er-
rand. He would not
go. lie thought to
get away from his
duty by putting to
sea. With pack under -
der his arm , I find
him on his way to
Joppa , a sea-port.
He goes down
; among the shipping ,
and says to the men lying around the
docks , "Which of these vessels sails today -
day ? " The sailors answer , "Yonder is
( a vessel going to Tarshish. I think , if
you hurry , you may get on board her. "
Jonah steps on board the rough craft ,
asks how much the fare is , and pays
it. Anchor is weighed , sails arc hoisted -
ed , and the rigging begins to rattle in
the strong breeze of the Mediterranean.
Joppa is an exposed harbor , and it does
not take long for the vessel to get out
on the broad sea. The sailors like what
they call a "spanking breeze , " and the
plunge of the vessel from the crest of
a tall wave is exhilarating to those at
home on the deep. But the strong
breeze becomes a gale , the gale a hur-
ricane. The affrighted passsengers ask
the captain if he ever saw anything like
this before. "Oh , yes , " he says ; "this
is nothing. " Mariners are slow to admit
danger to landsmen. But , after a while ,
crash goes the mast , and the vessel
pitches so far "a-beam's-end" there is
a fear she will not be righted. The
captain answers few questions , and orders -
ders the throwing out of boxes and
bundles , and of so much of the cargo
as they can get at. The captain at last
confesses there is but little hope , and
tells the passengers they had better go
to praying. It Is seldom that a sea-
captain is an Athiest. He knows that
there is a God , for he has seen him at
every point of latitude between Sandy
Hook and Queenstown. Captain Moody ,
commanding the "Cuba" of the Cunard
line , at Sunday service led the music
and sang like a Methodist. The captain -
tain of this Mediterranean craft , haying -
ing set the passengers to praying , goes
around examining the vessel at every
point. He descends into the cabin to
see whether in the strong wrestling of
the waves , the vessel had sprung a leak ,
and he finds Jonah asleep. Jonah had
had a wearisome tramp , and had spent
many sleepless nights about questions
of duty , and he is so sound asleep that
all the thunder of the storm and the
screaming of the passengers does not
disturb him. The captain lays hold of
him , and begins to shake him out of his
unconsciousness with the cry , "Don't
you see that we are all going to the
bottom ? Wake up and go to praying ,
if you have any God to go to. ' What'
meanest thou , 0 sleeper ? Arise , call
upon thy God , if so be that God will
think upon us , that we perish not. "
The rest of the story I will not rehearse -
hearse , for you know It well. To appease -
pease the sea. they threw Jonah over-
board.
Learn that the devil takes a man's
money and then sets him down in a poor
landing-place. The Bible says he paid
his fare to Tarshish. But see him get
out. The sailors bring him to the side
of the ship , lift him over "the guards , "
and let him drop with a loud splash in
the waves. He paid his fare all the way
to Tarshish , but did not get the worth
of his money. Neither does any one
who turns his back on his duty , and
does that which is not right.
There is a young man who , during
the past year , has spent a large part
of his salary in carousal. What has he
gained by it ? A soiled reputation , a
half-starved purse , a dissipated look , a
petulant temper , a disturbed conscience.
The manacles of one or two bad habits
that are pressing tighter will keep on
until they wear to the bone. You paid
your fare to Tarshish , but you have
been set down in the midst of a sea of
disquietude and perplexity.
One hundred dollars 3or Sunday

One hundred dollars for wine-sup-
pers.
One hundred dollars for frolics that

L. Making four hundred dollars for his
damnation !
Instead of being in Tarshish now , he
Is in the middle of the Mediterranean.
Here is a literary man , tired of the
faith of his fathers , who resolves to
launch out into what is called Free-
Thinking. He buys Theodore Parker's
works for twelve dollars ; Renan's Life
of Christ for one dollar and fifty cents ;
Andrew Jackson Davis's works for
twenty dollars. Goes to hear infidels
talk at the clubs , and to see spiritualism -
ism at the table-rapping. Talks glibly
of David , the Psalmist , as an old libertine -
tine ; of Paul as a wild enthusiast ; and
of Christ as a decent kind of a man-
a little weak in some respects , but almost -
most as good as himself. Talks smilingly -
ingly of Sunday as a good day to put
a little extra blacking on one's boots ;
and of Christians as , for the most part ,
hypocrites ; and of eternity as "the great
to be , " "the everlasting now , " or "the
Infinite what is it. " Some day he gets
his feet very wet , and finds himself that
night chilly. The next morning has a
hot mouth and is headachy. Sends
; , - word to the store that he will not be
there today. Bathes his feet ; has mustard -
tard plasters ; calls the doctor. The
' - = medical man says aside , "This is going
to be a bad case of congestion of the

sent downstairs , or sent to the neigh-
born , to keep the house quiet You
say , "Send for the minister. " But nog

he does not believe in ministers. You

does not believe in the Bible. A lawyer -
' , , yer comes in , and , sitting by his bed-
&de , writes a document that begins , "In

" sound mind , do make this my last will
& = and testament. " It is certain where
. ; - - the sick man's body will be in less than C
a week. It is quite certain who will
get his property. But what will become -
" come of his soul ? It will go into "the

' or "the infinite what Is it " His soul

books. He landed in perdition !
Every farthing you spend in sin Satan
will swindle you out of. He promises
you shall have thirty per cent or a
great dividend. He lies. He will sink
all the capital. You may pay full fare
to some sinful success , but you will
never get to Tarshish.
Learn how soundly men will sleep in
the midst of danger. The worst sinner -
ner on shipboard , considering the light
he had , was Jonah. He was a member
of the Church , while they were heathen.
The sailors were engaged in their lawful -
ful calling , following the sea. The -
chants on board , I suppose , were going
down to Tarshish to barter ; but Jonah ,
notwithstanding his Christian profession -
sion , was flying from duty. He was
sound asleep In the cabin. He has been
motionless for hours-his arms and
feet in the same posture as when he
lay down-his breast heaving with deep
respiration. Oh ! how could he sleep !
What if the ship struck a rock ! what
if it sprang a leak ! what if the clumsy
Oriental craft should capsize ! What
would become of Jonah ?
So men sleep soundly now amid perils
infinite. In almost every place , I suppose -
pose , the Mediterranean might be
sounded , but no line is long enough to
fathom the profound beneath every impenitent -
penitent man. Plunging a thousand
fathoms down. You cannot touch bot-
tom. Eternity beneath him , around
him ! Rocks close by , and whirlpools ,
and hot-breathed Levanters ; yet sound
sleep ! We try to wake him up , but fail.
The great surges of warning break over
the hurricane-deck-the gong of warning -
ing sounds through the cabin-the bell
rings. "Awake ! " cry a hundred voices ;
yet sound asleep in the cabin.
In the year 1775 , the captain of a
Greenland whaling vessel found himself
at night surrounded by icebergs , and
] ay-to until morning , expecting every
moment to be ground to pieces. In the
morning he looked about , and saw a
ship near by. He hailed it. No answer.
Getting Into a boat with some of the
crew , he pushed out for the mysterious
craft. Getting near by , he saw through
the port-hole a man at a stand , as
though keeping a log-book. He hailed
him. No answer. He went on board
the vessel , and found the man sitting
at the log-book frozen to death. The
log-book was dated 1762 , showing that
the vessel had been wandering for
thirteen years among the ice. The
sailors were found frozen among the
hammocks , and others in the cabin.
For thirteen years this ship had been
carrying its burden of corpses.
So from this Gospel craft today , I
descry voyagers for eternity. I cry ,
"Ship ahoy ! ship ahoy : " No answer.
They float about , tossed and ground by
the icebergs of sin , hoisting no sail for
heaven. I go' on board. I find all
asleep. It is a frozen sleep. 0 that my
Lord Jesus would come aboard and lay
hold of the wheel , and steer the craft
down into the warm Gulf Stream of his
mercy' Awake , thou that sleepest !
Arise from the dead , and Christ shall
give thee life.
Again : Notice that men are' aroused
by the most unexpected means. If
Jonah had been told one year before
that a heathen sea-captain would ever
awaken him to a sense of danger , he
would have scoffed at the idea ; but here
it is done. So now , men in strangest
ways are aroused from spiritual stupor.
A profane man is brougnt to conviction
by the shocking blasphemy of a com-
rade. A man attending church , and
hearing a .sermon from the text , "The
ox knoweth his owner , " etc. , goes home
unimpressed ; but , crossing his barnyard -
yard , an ox comes up and licks his
hand , and he says , "There it is now-
'the ox knoweth his owner , and the ass
his master's crib , ' but I do not know
God. " The careless remark of a
teamster has led a man to thoughtfulness -
ness and heaven. The child's remark ,
"Father , they have prayers at Uncle's
house-why dent we have them ? " has
brought salvation to tile dwelling.
By strangest way and in the most unexpected -
expected manner men are awakened.
Tile gardener of the Countess of Hunt-
ingdon was convicted of sin by hearing
the Countess on the opposite side of
the walk talk about Jesus. John Hard-
oak was aroused by a dream in which
he saw the last day , and the judge sitting -
ting , and heard his own name called
with terrible emphasis : "John Hard-
oak , come to judgment ! " The Lord has
a thousand ways of waking up Jonah.
Would that the messengers of mercy
might now find their way down into
the sides of the ship , and that many
who are unconsciously rocking in the
awful tempest of their sin might hear
the warning , "What meanest thou , 0
sleeper ? Arise , and call upon thy God ! "
Again : Learn that a man may wake
up too late. If , instead of sleeping ,
Jonah had been on his knees confessing
his sins from the time he went on board
the craft , I think God would have saved
him from being thrown overboard. But
he woke up too late. The tempest is in
full blast , and the sea , in convulsion , is
lashing itself , and nothing will stop it
now but the overthrow of Jonah.
So men sometimes wake up too late.
The last hour has come. The man has
no more idea of dying than I have of
dropping down this moment The rigging -
ging is all white with the foam of death.
How chill the night is ! "I must die , "
he says , "yet not ready. I must push
out upon this awful sea , but have nothing -
ing with which to pay my fare. The
white caps ! The darkness ! The hurricane -
cane ! How long have I been sleeping ?
Whole days , and months , and years.
I am quite awake now. I see everything -
thing , but it is too late. " Invisible
hands take him up. He struggles to
get loose. In vain. They bring his
soul to the verge. They let it down over
the side. The winds howl. The sea
opens its frothing jaws to swallow. He
has gone forever. And while the canvas -
vas cracked and the yards rattled and
the ropes thumped , the sea took up the
funeral dirge , playing with open '
diapason of midnight storm , "Because
I have called , and ye refused ; I have
stretched out my hand and no man regarded -
garded ; but ye have set at naught all
my counsel , and would none of my reproof -
proof ; I also will laugh at your calam-
ityI ; will mock when your fear com-
eth. "
Now , lest any of you should make
this mistake , I address you in the words
of the Mediterranean sea-captain :
'What meanest thou , 0 sleeper ? Arise ,
upon thy God , if so be that God will
think upon us , that we perish no. . If i
you have a God , you had better call
upon him. Do you say. "I have no
God ? Then you had better call upon
your father's God. When your father
was in trouble , who did he fly to ? You
heard him , in his old days , tell about
some terrible exposure in a snow-storm ,
or at sea , or in battle , or among mid-
Tight garroters , and how he escaped.

Perhaps twenty years before you were (
born , you. father made sweet acquaintance -
ance with God. There is something in
the worn pages of the Bible he used to
read which makes you think your
father had a God. In the old religious
books lying around the house , there
are passages marked with a lead ) encil
passages which make you thing your
father was not a godless man , but that ,
on that dark day- when he lay in tale
back ropm dying , he was ready-all
ready. But perhaps your father was a
bad man-prayerless , and a blasphemer -
er , and you' never think of him now
without a shudder. He worshiped the
world or his own appetites. Do not
then , I beg of you , call upon your fath-
er's God , but call on your mother's
God. I think she was good. You remember -
member when your father came home
drunk late on a cold night , how patient
your mother-was. You often heard her
pray. She used to sit by the hour meditating -
itating , as though she were thinking of
some good , warm place , where it never
gets cold , and where the bread does not
fail , and staggering steps never come.
You remember her now , as she sat , in
cap and spectacles , reading her Bible
Sunday afternoons. What good advice
she used to give you ! How black and
terrible the hole in the ground looked
to you when , with two ropes , they let
her down to rest in the graveyard ! Ah !
I think from your looks that I am on
the right track. Awake , 0 sleeper , and
call upon thy mother's God.
But perhaps both your father and
mother were depraved. Perhaps your
cradle was rocked by sin and shame ,
and it is a wonder that from such a
starting you have come to respectabil-
ity. Then don't call upon the God of
either of your parents , I beg of you.
But you have children. You know
God kindled those bright eyes , and
rounded those healthy limbs , and set
beating within their breast an immor-
tality. Perhaps in the belief that somehow -
how it would be for the best , you have
taught them to say an evening prayer ,
and when they kneel beside you , and
fold their little hands , and look up , ,
their faces all innocence and love , you
know that there is a God somewhere
about in the room.
I think I am on the right track at
last. Awake , 0 sleeper , and call upon
the God of thy children. May he set
these little ones to pulling at thy heart
until they charm thee to the same God
to whom to-night they 'will say their
little prayers !
Many years ago , a man , leaving his
family in Massachusetts , ' sailed from
Boston to China , to trade there. On
the coast of China , in the midst of a
night of storm , was shipwrecked
The adventurer was washed up on the
beach senseless-all his money gone.
He had to beg in the streets of Canton
to keep from starving. For two years
there was no communication between
himself and family. They supposed
him dead. 1-le knew not but that his
family was dead. He had gone out as
a captain. He was too proud to come
back as a private sailor. But after a
while he choked down his pride and
sailed for Boston.Arriving there , he
took an evening train for the center
of the state , where he had left his fam-
ily. Taking the stage from the depot ;
and riding a score of miles , he gut
home. He says that , going up in front
of the cottage in tale bright moonlight ,
the place looked to him like heaven.
He rapped on the window and the affrighted -
frighted servant let him in. He went
to the room where his wife and child
were sleeping. He did not dare to
wake them for fear of the shoke. Bending -
ing over to kiss his child's cheek , a
tear fell upon the wife's face , and she
wakened , and he said , "Mary ! " and she
knew his voice , and there was an fnde-
scribable scene of welcome , and joy ,
and thanksgiving to God.
To-day I know that many of you are
sea-tossed , and driven by sin in a
worse storm than that which came
down on the coast of China , and yet I
pray God that you may , like the sailor ,
live to go home. In the house of many
mansions your friends are waiting to
meet you. They are wondering why
you do not come. Escaped from the
shipwrecks of earth , may you at last
go in ! It will be a bright night-a very
bright night as you put your thumb on
the latch of that door. Once in , you
will find the old family faces sweeter
than when you last saw them , and
there it will be found that he who was
your father's God , and your mother's
God , and your children's God , is your
own most blessed Redeemer , to whom
be glory and dominion throughout all
ages , world without end. Amen , i

Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes , who once
made some remarks in reference to a
charge that in his writings he drew all
his villains from the clerical and legal
professions , said :
"I am afraid I shall have to square
accounts by writing one more story ,
with a physician figuring in it. I have i
long been looking in vain for such a
one to serve as a model. I thought I
had found a very excellent villain at
one tune , but it turned out he was no
physician at all , only a-I mean not
what we consider a practitioner of
medicine. I will venture to prdpose a
sentiment which , as 1 am not a work-
inn physician , need not include the i
Droposer in its eulogy : The medical
profession-so full of good people that
its own story tellers have to go outside
of it to find their villains. "
Good Milk.
So carefully are germs avoided in the t
dairies of Denmark that the celebrated
t
butter of the country , muchT of which
is sent to England , is washed when
necessary in water that has been boiled.i i
The butter is , however , rarely washed ,
but is first worked over by hand by I
girls who are scrupulously clean , and
afterward filtered throughclcan gravel ,
Ts white in color when finished , and is
irtificially colored. It .is very little '
salted when used at home , but more or , ss
less salt is added when it is sent as far s
as England. It is said to retain its S
fine quality when shipped better than
any butter known. As an incentive to
furnish only pure milk , the owners of t
the cows are under contract to notify c
the buyers at once if there is any sickness -
ness in their herd. The milk is then
bought from them and paid for at the
usual price , but isthrownaway.-Phil-

LIVING TRUTHS 5F THE PRACTICAL -
TICAL POLICY.
Selections from Varlowi Authorities
Which Servo to Prove the' Wisdom of
the People in Calling the Party Back
to Power.
Democracy for I'rotection ,
In March , 1532 , Senator Benton , in
speaking on Clay's tariff resolution ,
called attention to the fact that our domestic -
mestic manufacturers , having a high
tariff on their fabrics , were producing
many from the raw material of foreign
countries , to which he objected. He
slhowed that our flax fabrics were from
foreign flax , and he cited wool , hemp ,
indigo , hides , and furs , of which five
articles we had imported in six years to
the value of more than $25,000,000. He
noted that "this immense sum had been
paid to foreigners instead of American
citizens , " and said he trusted that , in
the modification of the tariff :
Tile farmers and planters of the United
States would be admitted into the Benefits -
fits of the American system and secured
in the domestic supply of the raw materials -
rials to our manufacturers. I hope for
this much for the farmers and for the
honor of the system. For nothing can
be more absurd than to erect domestic
manufactures upon foreign ( raw ) material -
rial ; nothing more contradictory than
to predicate independence for goods
upon dependence for materials to make
them of ; nothing more iniquitous than
to give to the manufacturers the home
market of goods and not to give the
farmers the home market of raw mate-
rials. I am a friend of domestic industry -
dustry and intend to give it a fair protection -
tection under regular exercise of the
revenue raising power. Above all I
am a friend of the cultivators of the
earth. ( Cong. Debates. 22c1 , 1st ( tS31-2) ) ,
Vol. 8 , Part 1 , page 587-590. )
This is not quoted to show that Mr.
Benton was a protectionist , beyond
what was known as a "discriminating"
or "incidental" protection , but to prove
that he stood with Silas Wright , James
Buchanan and all the great lights of
the earlier democracy on the agricultural -
tural question of home-grown raw material -
terial and not free or foreign raw ma-
terial.
Mr. Clayin February , 1532 , said :
It has been alleged that bar iron ,
being a raw material , ought to be admitted -
mitted free , or with low duties , for the
sake of the manufacturers themselves.
But I take this to be the true principle -
ple : That if our country is producing
a raw material of prime necessity' , and
if with reasonable protection we can
produce it in sufficient quantity to supply -
ply our wants , that raw material ought
to be protected , although it may be
proper to protect the article also out
of which it is manufactured.
In Mr. David \Zrelis' special report
as commissioner of revenue of January
3,1S67 , he recommends the recognition
and adoption , as the basis of present
and future legislation , of the principles -
ples of "abating the duty on raw materials -
terials to the lowest point consistent
with the requirements of revenue , and
of placing on the free list such raw
materials-the product mainly of tropical -
cal countries-as are essential elements
n great leading branches of manufacturing -
turing industry , and which do not come
n competition with any domestic pro-
duct. " ( Senate Doe. 39 , 2d , No. 1 ,
page 34. )
These sentiments apply to sugar , to I
cotton , rice , hemp , tobbaco , flax , barley , '
tad to coal , lumber and iron ore. The
theory of free raw material is as de-
ItSlve , unsound and erroneous in conception -
ception as it would be disastrous to our
country. It finds no warrant in the
political history of this country worthy
of indorsement. It would be especially t
harmful to agriculture if allowed to
run its course , and once adopted as a
policy , at what point or product would i
t stop ?
It is true that leading men in both
parties , at an earlier period in tine his-
tory' of the country , endeavored to discover - S
cover some way in which cur manet
facturers might be given the raw ma- t
erial grown on our own soil without
he duty. They desired to do this in
order to build up our manufacturing f
ndustry , but it was never proposed to I
do so at the expense of our farmers.
1Ir. Hamilton proposed to take the duty
off of cotton-make it "free" and then
give the planters a bounty on it. Louis

Any dutyon a raw
material is , to its extent , an injury to

ountervailing protection against our C
own rather than foreign regulations ,
and it is only to be justified by the T
paramount interests of agriculture. In
hat case it would deserve considera-
ion whether the encouragement of an
bject of agriculture might not be more o
properly reconciled with the encouragement -
ment of the manufacture ; and with
greater equality as regards other in- i
erests , by bounties rather than by a t
duty on the raw material.

"A Lessorn to Labor. "
Under this caption the American
Economist prints a brief paragraph'
calling attention to the fact that the
exchange of goods made in this country
for those produced abroad is not necessarily -
sarily and in all cases precisely what
it is cracked up to be by those who
cheerfully look forward to the time
when the Yankees shall control the
markets of the world through. the operation -
ation of free trade."In order that the
pride of the free traders may be grati-
fed , in some degree , " it says , "by the
capture of the foreign markets , the English -
glish manufacturer and the American
manufacturer should now proceed to
exchange some of their productions ,
which amounts , in effect , to a swapping
of dollars. "
If this barter could be , in all respects -
spects , and in regard to all parties , an
even exchange no harm would be done
and " re would be points of mutual
adr ii ; ge , but as the Economist points
out , American workingmen would be
likely to find that there was a big
balance against them in the transac-
tion. "On the one side is a well paid
labor-on the other a poorly paid labor
-these two must be equalized in order
that the manufacturers' chances shall
be equal. It would be in this process
of equalization that the workin rnhen in
this country would find that their
interests were seriouslyaffected. . The
markets of the world afford a fine and
inviting field to contemplate-there is
no doubt wlhatever about that-but
they must not be acquired at the expense -
pense of American labor. That point
was established with the establishment
of protection , and the present temper
of the American people makes it seem
highly improbable that it will be over-
tlhrown.-Springfield ( Mass. ) Morning
Union.
Favorable to American Velvets.
A significant phase of the growth and
development of American textile manufactures -
factures is the production by the Salts
Manufacturing company of New York
of black silk velvets , which the domestic -
tic trade is ordering for fall delivery
in preference to the German or French
made article.
The plant of the Salts Manufacturing
company is located in Connecticut , and
is understood to have been established
by the Salts of England and afterward
given up by them. Then the plant was
taken in hand by the present New
York house , with the result as stated ,
that its American made black velvets
of medium grades are manifestly- -
perior to the foreign made article.
A large number of samples of both
foreign and American made black velvets -
vets have been received by the A. S.
Lowell company of this city , one of the
largest millinery houses in the state ,
and in the selections made of the different -
ent weights the preference has been in
each instance for the home product , not
for the reason of a reference in price ,
for that was the same in all cases , but
because of the superiority- the An1P1'i-
can article.-Worcester Evening Ga-

Customs Reeeipts. I

The customs receipts have been $21 ;
000,000 greater this year than last ,
while the receipts from internal
revenue were $3,500,000 less. Thus ,
where there was reduction of taxation
there was increase of revenue , and
where there was increase of taxation
there was reduction of revenue.-Even-

Mr. Godkin say's : "Where there was
reduction there was increase of reve-
nue. " ire presume he means "reduc-
tion of taxation" to the American peo-
ple. Hence the foreigner must have
paid "the tariff tax" in order to supply
the "increase of revenue. " Again Mr.
Godkin says : "Where there was increase -
crease of taxation there was reduction
of revenue.rho got it , then ? Have
Tammany methods extended to the ad-
ninistration of national governmental
tffairs ? Is this the result of tariff reform -
form and Godkinism ?

A Deail Failure. r
rs
The Wilson free-trade tariff bill
b
proving , contray to democratic exp c- I
tations , a dead failure as a revenue getI
er , the democracy are now looking t
lbout for some American industry' to I
tax for revenue. They are talking an
ncreased tax of a dollar on beer. Tile
lJcKinley bill lowered the tax on tobacco -
co from S to G cents per pound. The
burgullians want to restore the tax to
cents. But unfortunately' for the free-
raders , the republicans have a majori-
y in the lower house of congress , who
are in favor of levying a tax for
revenue , not on Americans , but upon
oreign manufacturers. See ' ? -Lade ,
'ortsmouth , Ohio.
Z4llsoa iVas Not Profo.ar.
Even the colleges have caught tli
ground swell. Yale this year will
graduate 10.4 republicans , 40 democrats
and G prohibitionists. Formal , : most
ollege graduates were free-traders and
herefore naturally inclined toward the
s
democratic party , though they werea
quite likely to drift into the republican S
amp after a little practical experience.
But free-trade doesn't "go" now , eveh 'T
vith college boy's.-Times , Troy' , N Y.
of Course Not.
There is no more talk of the "army
t the unemployed.-The World , New -
Yorlt , June 27.
F
Of course there is not. The congress-
onal free-traders have been consigned
0 oblivion. There never would have
been any taut of the "army of the un-
mployed" had they always remained
here.
