REV. DR. TALNAGES SERMON ————— fhe Brooklyn Divire's Bunday AL pom o EBuhject ; “The Evils of Liquor Drinking.® —— 4 TExT: *‘Noah planted a vineyard, and M drank of the wine and was drunken,”-— Genesis ix., 20, 2 } This Noah did the best and the worst thing for the world. He built an ark ageinst the deluge of water, but intro duced a deluge against which the human race has ever since been trying to build an ark—the deluge of drunkenness, In my text wo hear his staggering steps. Shem and Japhet tried to cover up the disgrace, but there he ig, drunk on wine at a time in the history of the world when, to say the least; there was no lack of water, Incrintien having entered the world, has not retreated, Abigail, the fair and heroic wife, who saved the flocks of Nabal, her husband, from con. fiscation by invaders, goes home at night and finds him so intoxicated she cannot tell him the story of his narrow escape. Uriah came to see David, and David t him drunk and paved the way for the despoiia- tion of a household. Even the church bishops needed to be charged to be sober and nog given to tuo much wine, and so familiar were people of BiFle times with the stagger. ing and falling motion of the inebriate that Isaiah, when he comes to describe the final dislocation of the worlds, says, “Ths earth ghall reel to snd fro like a drunkard.” ¢ Ever:inceapplesand grapes and wheat grow the world has been tempted to unhealthtul stimulants, But “he intoxicants of the olden tune were an innocent boverage, a harmless orangeade, a quiet syrup, a peaceful soda- water as comparad with the liquids of mod- gn inebriation, into which a madness, and a fury, and a gloom, and a fire, and a suicide, and a retribution have mixed and minglel Fermentation was always known, but it was pot until a thousand years alter Christ that distillation was invented, Whila we must confess that some of the pncient arts have been lost, tho Christian era is superior to a'l others in the bad eminence of whisky and ram and gin. The moderna drunk is a hundredfold! worse than the ancient drunk, Noah in his intoxication became imbecile, but the vio tins of modern alcoholism have to struggzle with whole menageries of wild beasts, and Jougles of hissing serpents, and perditions of blaspaeming SmOOs, An arch flond arrived in our world, and Pe built an invisible caldron of temptation. He built that caldron strong and stout for ¢ll ages and nations, First he squeezad into the caldron the juicesof toe forvidden fru's of Paradise. Then he gathered for it a dis tillation from the harvest fields and the preharis of the hemispheres, Then he poured futo this caldron capsicum and copperas and fogwood and deadly nightshade and assault and battery and vitriol and opiamand run snd murder and sulphuric acid and theft and potash and cochineal and red carrots and poverty and death and hops, Bat it was a gry compound and it mast be moistened, and it must be liquefied, and so ths arch flond poured into that ealdron lhe tears of centn ties of orphanages and widowhood, and poured in the blood of twenly thousand as sassinatic And ¢ ne 1% n the arch flend took a shovel tha te bad ught up from the furnaces be peath, and he put teat shovel into this gr. on and began to stir, and the ca and rock and boil and spat s2 and smoke and the nations gath- und it with cups and tankards an ii kogs, and there was en the arch fend criad: “Ah md am I! Who has done 1 wo for coflins and graver i Yiums, and the md when ti ba i SAN a 4 smoke, ths su ever and eve rocks of ws, and the G more senators i ae viiS v in the fig guncile.

Champion Sead aml? Drunkenness is the greatest evil of this pation, snd it takes no logical process to prove to audience that a drunken nation cannot long be a free nation. I call your at- tention fo the fact that drunkenness is not subsiding, ninly that it is not at a stand. gtill, but th t is on an onward march, and it is 2 doubly quick, Thers is more rum swallowed in this country, and of a worse kind than was ever §%allowed since the first distillery began ith work of death. Whero thers was cae drunken home there are ten pres. Where there was one srave there are twenty drunk. ves, It is on the increase Talk about crooked whisky by which men mean the whisky that does not pay the tax to gov. srament—1 teil you all strong drink is crooked. Crooked Otard, crooked Cognac, crooked schnapps, crooked beef Crooked wine, crooked whisky —~hetgpuse it mhakes a man's path crooked, and his life crooked, and his death crooked and bis eternity crooked. It I could gather all the armies of the dead drunkards and have thems come to resurreo- tion, and then add to that host all the armies of Hving drunkards five and ten abreast, and then if I could bave you mount a horss and ride along that line for review, you would ride that horse till he dropped from exhaustion. and you would mount another horse and ride until he fell from exhaustion, and you would take another sad another, snd you would ride along hour after hour and dey after day, Great host, in regiments, fn brigades. Great armies of them. And then if you bad voice stentorian enough to make them all hear, and you could give ths command, “Forward, march™ their frst tramp would make the earth tremble. 1 do not care which way you look in the commun ftv to day the evil is increasing. I enli attention to the fact that there ace thousands of peopls born with a thirst lor strong drink-a fact too often ignored. Along some ancestral lines there runs the river of temptation, There are children whose ati clothes are torn off the shron. of death. Many a father kas made a will of this sort. “In the name of God, amen. I bequeath tomy children my houses end Iands estates: share and sbare shall they alike. Hereto 1 affix my hand and seal in the of witnesses.” And yet per: Ihaps that very man has made another will that the bave never read, and thal i oar tional than wel } aeq an vin and good men deceived, not knowing thers! is any thralidom of alcoholism coming from, toat source, are going down, and some day & man sits with the bottle of black bitters on his table, and the cork flies out, and after it fliesn flend and clutones the man by his throat and says: “Aha! I have been after oufortenyears. 1 have got you now, Jown with vou, down with you Bitters! Ab! yes, They make a man’s family bitter and his home bitter and his di ition bitter ' and his death bitter and his hell bitter, Bit- teres. A vast army all the time increas ing. : tt seems to me it is about tips for the 17.- 000 000 professors of religion In America to take sides, It is going to bean out and out battle with drunkenness and sobriety, be. tween heaven and hell, between God and the devil, Take sides before there is pay further national decadence, take sides before your sons are sacrificed and the home of your daughter goes down under the alcoholism of an imbruted husband. Take sides while your voices, your pen, your prayer, your vate may have any influence in arresting tue despoliation of this nation, If tha 17,000 000 rofessors of religion should take sides on hiz subjoot it would not be very long beiore the destiny of this nation would be decided in the right direction. Is drunkenness a stite or national evil? Does it belong to the North, or does it belong to the South? Does it belong to the East, or does it belong to the West? Ah, tuere is not in American river into which iis tears have sot fallen and into which {ta suicides have sot plunged. What ruined that Southern plantation?--every fisid a fortuna, the pro- prietor avd his family once the most affluent mpporters of summer watering places, What throw that New England farm ioto decay and urned the roseate checks that bloomed at the foot of the Green Mountains into the pallor of despair? What has smitten every itreet of every village, town and city of ths rontinent with a moral pestilence? Btrong irink. To prove that this is a national evil I call 1p two States in opposite directions--Maine wd Georgia. Let them testily in regard to this, Stawe of Maine says: “lit is so great wn evil up here we have anathematizsd it as s Btate.” BStateol Georgia says: “‘It is so {reat an evil dowa here that ninety counties of this Stato have made the sale of intox.ca- dng drink a criminality.” So the word co nes 1p from all parts of the land. Either drunk. wness will bo destroyed in this country or ihe American Government will be destroyed, Drunkenness and frees institutions are come Bg into a death grapple, Gather up ths mouey that the working passes have spent for rum during the last ihirty years, and I will build for every work- nzman a house, and lay out for him a gar. len, and clothe his sons in broaicioth ind his daughters in silks, and stand at his ront door a prancing span of sorrels of ays, and secure him a policy of life insur ince so that the present home may be vell maintained after he is dead.

A Kansas paper says the entire supply of Jerusalem corn in that State came from two kernels. These produced the the following season, and the next crop amounted to 500 bushels. The plant grows to the height of about three feet, and resembles broom corn or sorghum. The grain is white and answers every purpose which is served by Indian corn. It makes sweeter and better bread, and is delicious when boiled, after the manner of oatmeal. In wet weather it yuns to stalks and grows six feet high, without any grain to speak of. It produces best when the season is dry, and after the plant gets a start it is said to be absolutely impervious to the influence of drought and hot winds. The farmers of Western Kansas are preparing to engage in its culture next season to a large extent.—New York Daily Conti. A New System of Lighting.
