fSrEClAl. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
Brooklyn, January 13. The Rer. T. De "Witt
Talmage, D. D., preached to-day on "A Bncht
Sunday versus a Doleful Sunday." After ex
pounding appropriate passages of (Scripture be
gave out tbe hymn:
'Welcome, 6weet day of rest.
That saw the Lord arise.
The text was: "And call tbe Sabbath a de
light." Isaiah lvti, 13. Dr. Talmage said:
There is an element of glooin striking through
nil false religions. Paganism is a brood of hor
rors. The cod of Confucius frowned upon its
victims with blind fate. Mohammedanism
promises nothing to those exhausted with sin
In this world but an eternity of the
time passional indulgences. But God
intended that our religion should
have the grand characteristic of cheer
fulness. St. Paul struck the keynote when he
said: "Rejoice evermore, and again I say, re
joice." This religion has no spikes for the
feet; it has no books for the shoulder: it has
no long pilgrimages to take; it has no funeral
pyres upon which to leap: it has no Jugger
nauts before which to fall. Its good cheer is
symbolized in the Bible by the brightness of
waters and the redolence of lilies and the
sweetness of music and the hilarities of a ban
quet. A choir of seraphim chanted at its in
duction, and pealing trumpet, and waving
palm, and napping wing of archangel are to
celebrate its triumph. It began its chief mis
sion with the shout: "Glory to God in the high
est!" and it will close its earthly mission with
tbe ascription: "Hallelujah, for the .Lord God
omnipotent reigneth!"
But men have said that our religion is not
cheerful, because w have such a doleful Sab
bath. They say: 'You can have your religious
assemblages, and your long faces, and your
more gently, and threw a brighter glow on the
mantel ornaments, and cast a better cheerful
ness on the faces of the children, and threw a.
supernatural glory over tbe old family Bible.
Hail! Sabbath light 1 We rejoice in it. Rest
comes in through tbe window, or it leaps ud
from the fire, or it rolls out in the old arm
chair, or it catches up the body into ecstasy,
and swings open before the soul the 12 gates
which are 12 pearls. The bar of the unopened
warehouse, the binges of the unfastened store
window, tbe quiet of the commercial ware
house seem to say: "This is the day the Lord
bath made." Rest for the sewing w oroan, with
weary hands and aching side and sick heart.
Rest for tbe overtasked workman in tbe mine,
or out on tbe wall, or in the sweltering factory.
Hang up the plane, drop the adze, slip the
band from the wheel, put out the fire. Rest
for tbe body, for tbo mind and for the soul.
enifflmg cant, and jour psalm books, and your
Bibles. Give us tbe Sunday excursion and the
horse race and the convivial laughter. We
have so much joy that we want to spread it all
over the seven days of the week, and ou shall
not have one or our days of worldly satisfac
tion for religious dolefulness." I want to show
these men if there are any such in the boue
this morning that they are under a great delu
sion, and that God intended the 52 Sundars of
tbe year to be hung up like bells in a tower,
beating a perpetual chime of joy and glory and
salvation and heaven; fori want you to carry
out tbe idea of the text, "and call the Sabbath
a delight."
I remark, in tbe first place, we are to find in
this day the joy of healthy repose. In this
democratic country we all ha e to work some
with hand, some with brain, some with foot.
If there is in all this house a hand that has not.
during the past year, been stretched forth to
some kind of toil, let it be lifted. Not one, not
one. You sell the goods. You teach the
school. You doctor in the sickroom. You
practice at the bar. You edit a newspaper.
You tan the hides. You preach the gospel.
You mend tbe shoes. You sit at the shuttle.
(You carry the boa of bricks up the ladder on
the wall. And the one occupation is as honor
able as the other, provided
GOD CALLS YOU TO IT.
I care not what you do. If you only do it well.
But when Saturday night comes, you are jaded
and worn. The hand cannot soskillfully manu
facture; the cj e cannot see as well; the brain is
not so clear; the judgment is not so well bal
anced. A prominent manufacturer told me
that he could see a difference between the
goods which went out of his establishment on
Saturday from the goods that went out on
Monday. He said: "1 bey were very different
indeed. Those that were made in the former
part of the week, because of the rest that had
been previously given, were better than those
that w ere made in the latter part of the week,
when the men were tired out."
Thp sabbath comes, and it bathes tbe sore
ness from the limbs, quiets the agitated brain,
and puts out the fires of anxiety that have been
burning all the week. Our bodies are seven
day clocks, and unless on the seventh day they
are wound up they run down into the grae.
Tbe Sabbath was intended as a savings bank;
into it we are to gather the resources upon
which we are to draw all the week. That man
who breaks the babbath robs his own nerve,
his own muscle, bis own brain, bis own bones.
He dips up the wine of his own life and throws
it away. He who breaks the Lord's day gives
a mortgage to disease and death upon his en
tile physical estate, and at the most unex
pected moment that mortgage will be fore
closed and the soul ejected from the premises,
livery gland and pore and cell and linger nail
demands the seventh day for repose. The
respiration of the lungs, the throb of the pulse
In the wrist, the motion of the bone in its
fcoekct declare: "Remember the Sabbath day,
to keep it holy." There are thousands of men
who have had their lives dashed out against
the golden gates of the Sabbath.
A prominent London merchint testifies that
SO years ago he went to London. Hcsajs: "I
have during that time watched minutely, and
I hare noticed that the men who went to busi
ness on the Lord's day, or opened their count
ing houses, have, without a sincle exception,
conic to failure."' A prominent Christian mer
chant in Boston savs: "I find it don't pay to
work on Sunday. When I was a boj, I noticed
out on Long Wharf there were merchants who
loaded their vessels on the Sabbath day, keep
ing their men busy from morning till night,
and it is my observation that tbey themselves
came to nothing. These merchantsand their
children came to nothing. It doesn't pay," he
Bays, "to work on the Sabbath."
I appeal to your observation. Where are the
men who 20 years ago were Sabbath breakers,
and who have been Sabbath breakers eer
eincel Without a single exception, j ou will
tell me, tbey have come cither to financial or
to moral beggary. I defy you to point out a
single exception, and you can take the whole
world for jour field. It has either been a
financial or moral defalcation in every instance.
Six hnndred and forty physicians in London
petitioned Parliament, sajing: "We must have
the Sabbath obeyed. We cannot have health
in this city and in this nation unless tbe Sab
bath is observed." Those in our own country
have given evidence on the same side. The
man who takes down tbe shutters of his store
on tbe Sabbath takes down the curse of
Almighty God. That farmer who cultures his
ground on the Sabbath day raises a crop of
neuralgia and of consumption and of death.
A farmer said: "I defv vour Christian
Sabbatb. I will raise a Sunday crop." So ho
went to work ard plowed the ground on bun
day and harrowed ft on Sunday and he planted
corn on Sunday and he reaped the corn
on Sunday and he gathered it into the
oarn on Sunday. "There," he says, "1 have
proved to you that all this idea about a fatality
accompanying Sabbath work is a perfect sham.
My corn is garnered, and all is well." But be
fore many weeks passed the Lord God struck
that barn with His lightnings, and
AWAY WENT THE SUNDAY CHOP.
So great is the moral depression coming upon
those who toil upon the babbath day, that J ou
may have noticed (if you have not, I call your
attention to the fact) that in cases where the
public interest demands Sabbath toil the moral
depression is so great that there are but very
few who can stand it. For instance, the police
service, without which not one of our houses
would be safe there are very few who can
riand the pressure and temptation of it. In
London, where there are 6,000 policemen, the
statistic is given that in one year 921 of that
5,000 were dismissed, 523 were suspended and
2,492 were fined. Now, if the moral depression
be so great in occupations that are positively
necessary for the peace and prosperity of so
ciety, I ask you what must be the moral depres
sion In those cases where there is no necessity
for Sabbath work, and where a man chooses
worldly business on the Lord's day just because
lie likes it, or wants to add to his emoluments?
During the last war it was found out that those
public works which paused on tbe seventh day
turned out more war material than those which
worked all the seven days.
Mr. BagnallJ a prominent iron merchant,
pives this testimony: "I find we have fewer ac
cidents in our establishment and fewer inter
luptions, now we observe the Lord's day; and
Bt tbe close of the year, now that we keep the
Rabbatb. I find that we turn out more iron and
have larger profits thau anv vear when wr
worked all the seven days." 'The tact is, Sab-Intb-made
ropes will break and Sabbath-made
shoes will leak and Sabbath-made coats will
Tip and Sabbath-made muskets will miss fire
and Sabbath occupations will be blasted. A
entleman said: "I invented a shuttle on the
ord'sday. I was very busy, so I made the
model of that new shuttle on the Lord's day.
Bo very busy was I during the week that I had
to occupy many Sabbaths. It was a great suc
cess. I enlarged my buildings; I built new
factories and made hundreds of thousands of
dollars; but I have to tell you that all tbe re
sult of that work on the Sabbatb has been to
zne ruin. I enlarged ray buildings, 1 made a
creat many thousands of dollars, but I have
lost all, and I charge it to the fact of that Sun
day shuttle." I will place in two companies
tbe men in this community who break the Sab
bath and tbe men who keep it, and then I ask
you who are the best friends of socict ? Who
are the best friends of morals? Who have tbe
best prospects for this world? "Who have the
best tor the world tha: is to come?
Sabbath morning comes in the household. I
suppose that the mere philosopher would say
Welcome, sweet day orrest.
That saw the Lord arise:
Welcome to this reviving breast,
And these rcjolciug eyes.
Again I remark, we ought to have In the Sab
bath the joy of domestic reunion and consecra
tion. There are some very good parents who
hare the faculty of making the Sabbath a great
gloom. Their children run up against the
wall of
PARENTAL LUGTJBRIOUSNESS
on that day. They are sorry when Sunday
comes and glad when it goes away. They think
of everything bad on that day. It is the worst
day to the no, really, in all the week. There are
persons who, because they are brought up in
Christian families, where thero were wrong no
tions about the Sabbatb.have gone out into dis
sipation and will be lost. A mas said to me:
"I have a perfect digust for the Sabbath day.
1 never saw my father smile on Sunday. It
was such a dreadful day to me when I was a
boy, I never got over it and never will." Those
parents did not "call the Sabbath a delight;"
they made it a gloom. But there are houses
represented here this morning where the chil
dren say through the week: "I wonder when
Sunday will come!" They are anxious to have
it come. I hear their bosanna in tbe house: I
hear their bosanna in tbe school. God intended
the Sabbath to be especially a day for the
father. The mother is home all week. Sabbath
day comes, and God says to tbe father, who has
been busy from Monday morning to Saturday
night at the store or away from home: "This
is your day. See what you can do in this little
flock in preparing them for heaven. This day
I set apart for you."
You know very well that there are many par
ents who are mere sutlers ol the nousenoiu;
thev provide the food and raiment; once in a
while, perhaps, they hear the child read a lino
or two in the new primer; or if there be a case
of special discipline, and the mother cannot
manage It, tbe child is brought up In the court
martial of the father's discipline and punished.
That is all there is of it. So scrutiny of that
child's immortal interest, no realization of the
fact that the child will oon go out in a world
where there are gigantic and overwhelming
temptations that have swamped millions. But
in some households it is not that way: the
home, beautiful on ordinary days, is more
beautiful now that the Sabbath has dawned.
There is more joy in the "good morning."
there is more tenderness in tbe morning
prayer. The father looks at the child, and the
child looks at the father. The little one dares
now to ask questions, without any fear of being
answered: "Don't bother me I must be off to
the store." Now the father looks at the child,
and he sees not merely tbe blue eyes,
the arched brow, tbe long lashes, the
sweet lips. He sees in that child a
long line of earthly destinies; he sees in that
child an immeasurable eternity. As he touches
that child, hesajs: "I wonder what will be the
destiny of this little one?" And wlu'e this
Christian father is thinking and praying, the
sweet promise flows through his soul: "Of
such is the kingdom of heaven." And be feels
a joy, not like that which sounds in the dance,
or is wafted from the froth of the wine-cup, or
that which is like the "crackling of tnorns under
a pot," but the joy of domestic reunion and
consecration.
Have I been picturing something that is
merely fanciful, or is it possible for you and
for me to have such a home as that? I believe
it is possible.
I have a statistic that I would like to give
vou. A great many people, yon know.say there
is nothing in the Christian discipline of a house
hold. In New Hampshire there were two
neighborhoods the one of six familes, the other
of five families. The six families disregarded
the Sabbath. In time, five of these families
w ere broken up by the separation of husbands
and wives; tbe other by tbe father becoming a
thief. Eight or nine of tbe parents became
drunkards, one committed suicide, and all came
to penury. Of some 40 or 50 descendants, about
20 are known to be drunkards and gamblers and
dissolute. Four or five have been in State
prison. One fell in a duel. Some are in the
almshouse. Only one became a Christian, and
he after first having been outrageously dissi-'
patcd. The other five families that regarded
the babbath were all prospered. Eight or ten
of tbe children are consistent members of the
church. Some of them became officers in the
church; one is a minister of the gospel; one is
a missionary in China.
NO POVERTY AMONG ANY
of them. The homestead is now in tbe hands
of the third generation. Those who have died
have died in the peace of the gospel. Oh, is
there nothing in a household that remembers
God's holy day? Can it be possible that those
who disregard this holy commandment can be
prospered forthislife. or have any good hope of
the life that is to come?
Again, we ought to have in the Sabbath the
joy of Christian assemblage. Where are all
those pcoole going on the Sabbath? You see
them moving up and down the street. Is it a
festal day? people might ask. Has there been
some public edict commanding the people to
come forth? Is'o, they are only worshipers of
God who are going to their places of religious
service. In what delicate scale shall I weigh
tbe joy of Christian convocation? It gives
brightness to the ec and a flush to the check
and a pressure to the hand and a thrill to tbo
heart. You see the aged man tottering along
on his staff through the aisle. You see tbe lit
tle child led by the hand of its mother. You
look around and rejoice that this is God's day,
and this the communion of saints. "One Lord,
one faith, one baptism." Some familiar tune
sets the soul a-quiver and aquake with rapture.
We plunge into some old hymn, and all our
cares and anxieties are bathed off. The glo
rious Gospel transports us, the Spirit descends,
Jesus appears, and we feel tbe bounding,
spreading, electric joy of Christian convoca
tion. I look upon the Church of God as one vast
bosanna. Joy dripping from the baptismal
font, joy glowing in the sacramental cup, joy
warbling in the anthem, joy beating against
the gate of heaven with a hallelujah like tbe
voice of mighty thundenngs. Beautiful for
situation! Tbe joy of the whole earth is Mount
Zion. It is tbe day and the place where Christ
reviews his troops, bringing them out in com
panies and regiments and battalions, riding
along the line, examining the battle-torn flags
of past combat, and cheering them on to future
victories. Ob, the joy of Christian as
semblage! I remark also, we are to have in this day the
joy of eternal babbatism. I do not bolicve it
possible for any Christian to spend the Lnrds's
day here without thinking of heaven. Thero
is something in the gathering of people in
church on earth to make one think of the rapt
assemblage of the skies. There is something in
the song of the Christian Church to make one
think of the song of the elders before the
throne, the harpists and the trumpeters of God
accompanying tbe harmony. The light of a
better Sabbath gilds the top of this, and earth
and heaven come witnin speaking distance of
each other, tbe song of triumph waving back
ward and forward, now tossed up by the Church
of earth, now sent back by the Church of
heaven.
matter, and send your child to the Sabbath
school and tbe house of God; that will not re
lieve the matter. I want to tell you, in the
name of Christ, my Maker and my Judge, that
your example will be more potential than any
instruction they get elsewhere; and if you dis
regard the Lord's day yourself, or in any wise
throw contempt upon it, you are blasting your
children with an infinite curse. It is a rough
truth, I know, told in a rough way: but It is
God's truth, nevertheless. Your child may go
on to TO or SO years of age, but that child will
never get over the awiui aisaavantage oi nav
ing had a Sabbath-breaking father or a
Sabbath-breaking mother. It is the joy of
many of us that we can look back to an early
home where God was honored, and when tbe
Sabbath came it was a day of great consecra
tion and joy. We remember the old faces
around the table that Sabbath morning. Our
hearts melt when we think of those blessed as
sociations, and we may have been off and com
mitted many indiscretions and done many
wrong things; but the day will never come
when we forget the early nome in which God's
day was regarded, and father and mother told
us to keep holy the Sabbath.
There is another way in which we can war
against tbe Sabbath-breaking usages of tbe
country at this time, and that is by making our
houses of worshin attractive and the religious
services inspiriting.

to arrest them. Ah! when the prodigal comes
into the church do not stare at him as though
he had no right to come. Give him the best
seat you can find for him. Sometimes a man
wakes up from his sin, and be says: "I'll go to
the house of God." Perhaps he comes from
one motive, perhaps from another. He finds
the chnrch dark and the Christian people
frigid (and there are no people on earth who
can be more frigid than Christian people when
they try) and the music is dull, and be never
comes again. Suppose one of these men enters
the church. As he comes in he hearsasong which
his mother sang when he was a boy; he remem

"Yes." he says, "I have heard that many
times." He sees cheerful Christian people
there, everv man's face a psalm of thanksgiv
ing to God.' He sajs: "Do you have this so
every Sunday? I have heard that tbe bouse of
God was a doleful place, and Christians were
lugubrious and repelling! I have really en
joyed myself!" The next Sabbatb the man is
again in tbe same place. Tears of repentance
start down his cheek; he begins to pray; and
when tbe communion table is spread, be sits at
it, and some one reaches over and says: "I am
surprised to find ou here. I thought jou
didn't believe in such things." "Ah!" he says,
"I have been captured. I came in one day, and
I found you were all so loving and cheerful
here that I concluded I would come among
you. Where tbou goest I will go: thy people
shall be my people, and thy God my God.
Where thou diest will I die, and there will I be
buried."
Ah! you can't drive men out of their sins, but
you can coax them out you can charm them'
out.
I would to God that we could all come to a
higher appreciation of this Sabbath heritage!
We cannot count tbe treasures of one Christian
Sabbath. It spreads out over us the two wings
of the archangel of mercy. Ob. blessed Sab.
bath! blessed Sabbatb! They scoff a great deal
abont the old Puritanic Sabbaths, and there is
a wonderful amount of wit expended upon that
subject now the Sabbaths tbey used to have in
New England,
I never lived in New England, but I would
rather trust tbe old Puritanic Sabbath, with all
its faults, than this modern Sabbatb, which is
fast becoming no Sabbath at all. If our modern
Sabbatism shall produce as stalwart Christian
character as tbe old New England Puritanic
Sabbatism, I shall be satisfied, and I shall be
surprised.
Ob, blessed day! blessed day! I should like
to die some Sabbath morning when the air is
full of church music and the bells are ringing.
Leaving my home group with a dying blessing,
I should like to look off upon some Christian
assemblage chanting the praisos of God as I
went up to join the one hundred and forty and
four thousand and tbe thousands of thousands
standing around the throne of Jesus. Hark!
I hear the bell of the old kirk on the hillside of
heaven. It is a wedding bell, for behold the
Bridegroom comcth. It Is a victor's bell, for
we are more than conquerors through Him
who hath loved us. It is a Sabbath bell, for it
calls the nations of earth and heaven to ever
lasting repose.
Oh when, thou city of my God,
bhall 1 thy courts ascend?
Where congregations ne'er break up,
And Sabbaths have no end.
PURE ENGLISH POLITICS.
Carl Schnrz Says They Are Vastly Prefera
ble to Our Own.
New Xobk, January 13. At a dinner of
the Commonwealth Club last night Hon.
Carl Schurz said:
Tbe politics of this country are in a deplora
bly corrupt condition, and their reformation is
a more important question at present than
either free trade or protection. Some people
say this stato of things cannot be remedied, yet
tbe condition of English politics was much
worse not many years ago, and to-day England
is the cleanest nation, politically speaking, on
the face of the earth.

Constitutional Catarrh.
No single disease has entailed more suffering

physicians, impotentlr assailed by quacks and
charlatans, those suffering from it have little

Day of ill the tv t rk the best.
Emhlun of eternal rest.
The Christian man lands radiant in its light.
His bereft heart rejoicea at the thought ol a
country where there is neither a coffin nor
crave; his weary body plows at the idea of a
land where there are no burdens to carry, and
no exhaustive journeys to take. He eats tho
grapes of Eshcol. He stands upon the mount
ain top and looks oft upon the promised land.
He hears the call of the eternal towers, and the
tramo of the numberless multitude with sins
forgiven. This is the day which the Lord hath
made. Let us rejoice and be clad in it. Oh, ye
who have been hunting for Surday pleasures
in the street and on tbe river bank and in the
liou'es of sin, I commend to you this holy dsy
and holy service! 1 do not invito jou to swal
low a (rrcat bitterness or to carry a heavy yoke;
but I invite you to feel in body, mind and soul
the thrill of joy which God has handed down
in the chalices of
THE GOLDEN SABBATH.
With what revulsion and with what pity we
must look out on that large class of persons in
our day who would throw discredit upon tbe
Lord's day. There are two things which Chris
tian people ought never to give up; the one 13
the Bible, tho other is the Sabbath. Tako
away one, and you take both. Take either.aud
farewell to Christianity in this country, fare
well to our civil and religious liberties. When
they go.all go. He who has ever spent Sunday
