THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 18GG. Gforpe was the rral "slmon pure.' A Herman editor, in his account of the artlsU of England announced that Mr. Gcorjre Cokcuhank. is an KngltMi artlat, whoso real mirue is Simon Pure. "nquiBitivpnes la the itch for Tirvinsr Into other people's affairs to the neglect of our own. Some men have a dreatful desire to know 'whatistbo news." When I say men. I mean women too. (Latin hi pr.) Such a one can tell you of ail the weddhmi iliat are eoins oil', and all the encasements that have been broken off, and for whiu; whoso property is mortira"?el, and for how much; who knows every person's income but his own. lie can inform you what Iih neighbors do: who hare boon alevp; who walk and who ride. You will find some of them watching jou at the window when the butcher comes, to gee wbnt kind of meat you bought. fetich a one will keep a watchful eye upon others, asking them question seeminsly of no importance, and then deduces a conclusion, until he becomes entwined and ensnared in a cobweb of lnnnisliiveupss. These people are the funeral oi conversation, they take In noth ing (or their own use, but simply to publish it. (Lauuhtcr.) How aniusin? It is to see one of thece Inquisitive persons! they will ponder, lay In wait lor jou to ask you questions; they accost you and suy tluy have a piece of now, ircsh news. I beard a story of a conversation between one of these inquisitive persons and a gcn'.lenian who had lost his leg. The inquisitor com menced. "Lost a W, ch?" "How did you lose your leg? ' "When did you lose it ?" "Under what circumstances ?" "Where did ju loe it?" To all these inquiries he received no definite replv, but still be was anxious to find out how that leg was lost. After bothering the gentle man for some time with all sorts of questions In relation to the leg, the loser turned to him and said, "It you promise nie you won't ask another question 1 will tel! you." "I won't," was the reply "toot another," 'Not another. On your word and honon"' "Yes. sir." "Well.ttlien. my friend it was bit off." "Bit off, was it?" "How?" (Laughter.) Suppose you were sitting in a railroad car absorbed in your paper or book, ami have an individual torture yon in tbis wise: "Is this seat engaged?" "No, sir.' "Fine day." "Yes, sir." "Going 'fur?'" "Yes, sir." "ibw York, I suppose?" "No, sir." "fioing fuither?" (Laughter.) "Yes, sir." "South?" "Yts, sir." "Business?" (Renewed lainrhtcr.) "Yes, sir." "Dry goods?" "No, sir." "Insu rance?" "No, sir." "Speculation ?' "No, sir." "llow old might you bo, may I usk V "Yes, sir." "Harried man?'' "Yes, sir." "Got auy chil dren?" "No, sir." "Do you adopt any?" '-No. sir." 'I should think, you ought to? In the church?" "Yes. sir." "Orthodox?" "I hope so, sir," "Wto is your preacher? Smart man practical?" "Yes, sir," "Abolitionist?" "Yes, sib." "What might your name be ?'' "It might lie Beelzebub, but it isn't. Now j ust think of it; isn't it awfnlj ? John Randolph put up at a hotel to refresh himself and retinue. naving paid bis bill he was about to depart, when the landlord asked him w hich way he was going. Mr. Randolph replied: "Haven't I paid my bill? Do I owe you anything? I suppose just such way as I please." Having proceeded a short distance he came to the forks ot the road, and not knowing which one was right, he sent his servant back to inquire of the landlord. He sent back the answer that Mr. Randolph didn't owe him a cent, and be could take which road he pleased. A Frenchman aud an American both sat down to a table in Paris one time, and the way the eatables disappeared from before the American, induced the Frenchman to ask him It that was liis breakfast or dinner ? The Frenchman, after repeatedly as-king the question, finally received the reply of "Go to thunder." A challenge and a duel was the result. The American shot the Frenchman. As he lay on the ground, he cried, "I am very much killed; I shall die " "My dear fellow, I am very sorry for this thing; cau 1 do anything lor you ?" said the American. "Oh, yes," was the reply. "You can do a great deal; can do very much. Oh ! I am very much killed; come here" was that your breakfast or your dinner?" (The whole audience were thrown into a fit of lautrhter, which lasted several minutes. The way in which Mr. Gough spoke the last sentence occasioned it. ) The desire to know future things is very strong in the minds of many. The mind is not satisfied with objects imme diately before it, but it is always breaking away from the present, tilled with conjectures about things not yet made real to us, longiug to penetrate into niturity. I counted in one Botoa newspaper thirty-two advertisements of persons who pretended to tell ot the iuture. These are all impostor.', who im pose upon the credulous. No educated man is superstitious; it is only the ignorant. There is a vast amount of superstition amongst us. l'erhaps some of you ladies have looked In the grounds of a coiiee cup for your iuture hus band. Did you ever? (Laughter.) Don't you sometimes obtain a piece of bride-cake aud put it under your pillow to dream of it ? He cited a few other of the popular superstitious among the ladies, and then told the ladies to take an egg, fill It with salt, and tike it shell and all beiore going to bed. and then they would dream ol their luiure husbands. If a cat turned her tail to the fire we are to have a bard Irost. If a cat sneezes everybody in the house will take cold. Spilling salt is an ill omen. If jour light hand itches you are going to pay out some money. If your left hand, you will receive some. If your toot itches, you will stand on strange ground. It is curiosity to know the future. What would you give to know the fntUiP ? Ydung gentleman, in a very few days you in tend to propose to that young lady. Would you not like to be spared all that trembling, and tear, aud doubt that she would say no? What would you give to know if jour specula tion would be successful? Young married couple, what would you eive to know if your nuarriaae would lie happy ? Ii I were to ask this audience, they would tell me they would like to know what is coming. You ea'unot. The deMre to know the future is a neglect of the present; you weary away in vain conjec ture. Such men become unstable always plan ning, never executing: always comaieneiu?, never completing: always speakinir, never act ing; always proposing, never performing. Such men promise to do everything, and do nothing. Wc can make our own future. We are making it every day. It is a solemn fact; but "Whatso ever a man sowetb that also shall he reap." They that sow corn shall reap corn. They that sow Hip corruDtible shall reap the corruntiblu. They that sow the imperishable shall reap the imperishable. it we would make our future peaceful, let U9 sew righteousness. We rest on luitb. The Iuture is known to God onlv. and we know no more than He has revealed, and I say we receive by faith: iaith means certamtv. Because He has said it we believe it. Immortality is revealed to us, aud we receive it lay faith. Men may make their own future. He that sowetb of the floah shall reap of the flesh. All our ideas concerning a future life, think ing, acting, are phantoms in the dark, without revelation. There is nothing for us in the trackless future but by faith, and so faith is a necessity, Bv faith we learn all things pertain ing to the way9 oi ine Airnigmy. By knowledge we learn His wisdom in the life that now is. and the life which is to come. Is not faith of more importance than knowledge? A man may know all mystery, understand all xuuigs; may be proncieui m an iue bcieuceg, With n his knowledge, as he stands on the con fini B of this liie, with the consciousness of im mortality, he sees no star of hope all is uncer taiiity. He stretches out his baud, and he grasps the darkness, his soul fluttering away into an eternity of which ho Knows uoiuing. With ail bis knowledge, how miserable he is I Another man hag faith In God as the arovern ing, actuating power ot his whole being. He knows nothing of the schools, sneaks but one language, and yet on the veige ol eternity ho cau say, "I know in whom I have believed; I hball be satisfied when I awake in Thv likeness." A man named Joe was very tgnoraht could net read or write. He understood no doctrine but the plain simple truth ot the Gospel. Laying his hand upon his hcatt, he could ?ay, "Joe only knows one thing Jesus i nnst came in'0 me world to save sinners; .Toe's a sinner; Jes'is Christ came to save Joe; Joe kuows It; Joh loves Him." , . Give me faith the gi and, settled hope without kiiu ledge rather than all the knowledpo on eniih. That fait , so that when death falls on me I can say I have composed myself to sleep, with the certainty ot a cming morning, and the glory above the clouds, as undoubtedly as I shall cloe my weary eyes to-uiautto slurp, con scious and assured the sun will rise to-niorrow moininir. What is my predominant purpose? What is mv chief weakne'8? What is my highest delight? What are my prejudices neaiust per sons and thiEcs? What is my ta'thf How many can Hbk those questions 1 How few can answer them! Men do not want to know. I tell you we would he lrightrned it we asked oun-clves seriotnly and solemnly these questions. A youug mau oi'ce said to mo: "Talkiug about sinneis, I am not a sinner; don't cuil ine a sinner; 1 am not a sinner." SSaid I to him: "My youmr iriund, woul.l you bo willing that your mother, your sister, and your aunt should know all you had over said or did, or thought; every motive of your heart, every wish " "No, I do not, by thunder. No, sir." Young man, would you like your moiher and sifter to know everything ? Dou't stand in the presence of the Holy God and say jou are not a sinner. A man was in the pulpit one tune going to preach; he trot along with the hymns and psalms very well, but when he came to the ser mon he stopped a little while, and, a-hemming, ho said to the congregation: "My friends, I don't have no knowledge ot preaching; if there are any here who can preach, ict them come up aud try." A young mau got permission to preach, and sufleied a severe rebuke. An old minister said the young man's sermon did Dim a great deal of good, lie was asked what particular part. "Both," he replied, "from beginning to end." "In what respect ?" "Well, sir, two weeks asro I braid Doctor Mason, ol New York, preach, and I thought I never would bn able to preach aiain, but after hearing you I think I shall.'' (Laughter.) It is au awful thing to see young men from sixteen to twenty-five the very years that settle the habits, and, not only that, the years in which the body becomes more compact abusiug them selves. I tell you it is enough to make a man wait when he thinks what a fool be was in those years of his lite when he might have gathered strength, and power, and vigor, and lived long. Why my old father, to-day eighty-eiht years of ace, who tought in the revolutionary war, is as hearty as I am; and wty.' Becaue be took pro per care ot himself v. L n a jouug mau. Another branch of knowledge is to know otheis. Tbis is more aniioult. One of my fa vorite desires was that 1 mirrlit be invisible. I had been reading fairy tales. How I should like to know what people were talking about 1 Some men aro so transparent that thy carry their hearts in their Hand-. I knew a man who was told that a friend ot his belonged to church. "Good eracious ! is itso ? I have beeu acquainted with him bttcen years, und I never dreaied ne was a ni ember." The men who pretend to be judges of charac ter are often deieived They ought not always to judge by appearances. How often we say, "1 do not like the looks of that man ! ' Now, we cannot judge a man by his words or actions. They nominated a certain man lor the second highest office in the gift of the people; and I be lieve if they had studied physiognomy a little more, thecountry would have beeu spared the disgrace of having such a man. (The applause which greeted the conclusion of this BPntence continued about live minutes, some yelling, hi.-sing, aud stamping their feet. The lecturer attempted several tunes to resume his lecture, but was Interrupted by the npplau.se bursting out afresh. Alter it subsided, he re sumed.) Everybody has his sympathizers. (Cheers.) I will say not bine about my policy. (Laugh ter.) it is enough to make every true Ameri can's cheek blush with shame to have such a man "swinging around the circle." (Lausrhter.) It is a disgrace to the American people, and every loyal Ameiican should stand out and pro test against It. I declare that whenever and wherever I speak, whether with "Temperance" for a suhjeot, or auy other subject, I will. (Cheers aud applause.) Take an audience coin posed ot ladies and gentlemen, and deliver to them a speech full ot low, mean, contemptible sentiments, and they will hiss you. Take the same audience, and deliver to them a discourse containing honest, lottv, ana truthful senti ments, ana they will applaud you. We are apt to (udce others by ourselves. Pee that boy at tlio corner of the street, young in years, but old m sin. rass mm Dy. lie is a very bad boy, to ue sure, anu ine prooaDiiity is that he will grow into a bad man. He is a thief, aud he glories in it. He is a blasphemer, and proud of it. If you stop and talk to oue of thtse outcasts, as I have done time and again, jou will learn many a lesson from them. I was walking through London one outer com day, when I saw upon the steps of a bouse what appeared at first to be a bundie of raes. When 1 curae up to it, l louna it was two street children, barelooted both of them; but the boy had a wooilen Scotch cap. He had taken it oif his bead and put his sister's feet into it, and had Lis arms folded around his sister, so as to keep ber from freezing. The boy was seven aud the girl eve. They thought I was a policeman. I told them not to mind me. They tola me they slept sometimes under the arches, or any where they1 could una. l ten jou, ii you make yoursell familiar with some of these facts, you will be lalow to judge. The mother of this boy is a bef gar, and the father is a drunkaid, his sisters plud their dreadful traae. it lias been so lor generations. I believe in education and training. Where would jou have beeu if your childhood had been passed among the horrible influences that surrounded him?" Give that boy knowledge. Teach tbat child the Lord's Prayer. The ele ments of curiosity are almost illimitable. It is not only a curiosity to sec rare things, but also impossible ones. it you advertise that m this Academy some impossible feat is to be pei formed, the people v.-i 1 come here, eveu Knowing u cannot ue per formed. There was an advertisement in a London Enper fataiiug iu:it a mau wouiu ubi iuio a quart ottle. uiid some ore would stop it up with a oork, and he would sinp a comic soup. The house was crowded, but tinally the theatre was literally cleaned oui. Tom Thumb, forinstance. I fcuppose, wnue iu j'.ujjidiiu, ouu.uuu people liifsed liiui, lue.udiiiR the ro.yal tamily. I uiiould think they could hud something bitter to kiss. (Laughter.) Some have a curiosity to see a man liunn. When I was in the cathedral at Colotrui', a man asked me it I wanted to tee one ot the jars in which our Saviour turned the water into wine. I didn't belieYO it, but 1 went to Bee It. Some people don't know the meanim? of word. 1 once heard a pood story about a lady who hud been to market, and on the bill was one pound of tea, lour pounds ditto. Thore being several dittoes on the bill, neither thu husband nor wife knew what it uieaut; so the husband was despatched to the store to boo what it meant, wnen ne arrived there the meai lns was explained to him, and uolnjr home, his wife asked nun what it was, He replied, "l am a confounded loof, ana you unto." A young man told a girl he loved her, and she tnld him ditto. The next day, working with his father in the garden, be asked him what was the meantuKof the word, ditto. The lather renlied bv nointtnc to a cabbapre-head, savin.!,'. there is a cabbage-head, aud tbere (pointing to his son) is anotocr. "Consarn her countenance si. called nie a cabbaee-bead." (Lausrhter.) Tim unr-uker continued at some length, clos- tns his address bv savinsr, "Behold the fear of the Lord, that Is wisdom, and to depart from evil is understanding." COTTON AND FLAX .
