Dr. Talmage, before beginning his second sermon on the Holy Land this morning, stated that as pre viously announced, the sermon about to be delivered would also be delivered in the Xcw York Academy of Music in the even ing. In consequence of the unprecedented attendance the preceding Sunday evening, when, despite the fact that the Academy of Music accommodated fully 6,000 persons, many thousands were turned away, the managers of The Christian Herald had opened negotiations with a view to securing Madison Square Garden for the purpose of the remaining 10 Sun Jay evening sermons. Owing to imperative engagements for the next three Sundays, the garden conld not be secured earlier than four weeks hence, when The Christian Herald expects to be able to give to Dr. Talmage an opportunity, during llie remaining Sabbath evenings ol 1890, to speak in the greatest public auditorium in Xe York City, to the largest audiences that ever assembled for divine service. The seating capacity of Madison Square Garden is 12,000. Tne subject this mnrnins was: "My Second Day in Palestine." Alter the readme ol the Scriptures and two hearty songs ot worship by the congregation, the preacher announced as his text: Galatians i,. 18: 'I went up to Jerusalem." My second dav In the Holy Land. We are in Joppa. It is 6 o,clock in the morning, but we j must tart early, lor ov nizm we are 10 ue in Jerusalem, and that city is 41 miles away. We may take camel or horse, or carriage. As to tlav will be our last opportunity m Palestine lor taking the beel,wecbooe that The horses ttith harness tassclcd and jingling, are hitched, aim, with idracoiuan in coat of many colors seated in front, we started on a road which un- rils within 12 hours enough to think of for al! time ai.d all eternity. AMID WONDERFUL GARDENS. "W'e start out ol the city amid barricades of cactus on cither side. Not cactus in boxes two or three feet hicb, but caev. is higher than the top of the carnage a plant that has more swords for defense, considering the amount of beauty it can exhibit, than anything created. We passed ut amid about 400 gardens, seven or eight acres to the carden, from which at the rlcht seasons are pluiked oranges, lemons, figs, olives, citron and pomegranates, and which hold uo their censers of perfume before the Lord in perpetual praise. We meet camels loaded with keg. great processions of them burdened iih oil and with fruits, and some wealthy Mohammedan with four wives three too man The camel i a proud, mysterious, solemn, ancient, ungainly, majestic and ridicu lous rliapc. stalking out of the pan. As wc pass out ind on we find about EOO acres Dclongii-g to tne universal israelitish Alliance jVionicIIore. the i-raeli.ih centenarian an pbitanthmuist. ami Rothschild, the banker, and others of the large-hearted have paid the pas sago to Palestine, for many of the Israelites, and set apart lands for their culture; and it is only a beginning of the fulfillment of divine pronbec, wheu these people shall take posses sion ot the Holy Land. The road from Joppa to Jerusalem, and all the rn.uH leading to 'azaicth and Gallilee we saw lmnrd viitb pro cessions of Jews, going to the sacred places, either on holj pilgrimage, or as settlers. All the fingers of Pioridencc nowadays are point ing toward ibat resumption ol Palestine by the Israelites. 1 do not take u that the prospered Israelites of othei lands aro to go there. They would he foolish to leave their prosperities in our American cities where they are among our best citizens, and cross two seas to begin life over again in a strange land. But the outrages heaped upon them in Russia, and the insults offered them in German, will soon quadruple and centuple the procession oi Israelites from Knssia to l'Ale-tiuo. Colonization societies in England and Knssia are gathering iD'iney for me transportation ol tne Israelites to Palestine and for the purchase for them of lands and farming implements, and so many desire to go that it is decided bvlotas to which families shall go first. They were GOD'S chosek people at the first, and He has promised to bring them back to their home, and there Is no power In 1,000 or 5,000 years to make God forget His promises. Those n are prospeied in other lands will do well to stay where they are But let the Israelites who aro depreciated and at tacked and persecuted turn their faces toward the rising sun of their deliverance. God will gather in that distant laud those of that race who have been maltreated, and He will blast with the lightnings of His omnipotence those lands on either side of the Atlantic, which have been the instruments of annoyance and barm, to that Jewish race, to which "belonged Abra ham, and Daud.aud Joshua,and Baron Hirsch. and Moutefiore, and Paul the Apostle, and Mary the irgm, and Jesus Christ the Lord. On the way across the plain of bharon we rnjet many eiled women. Itis not respectable for them to go unveiled, ard it is a veil that is so hung as to make them hideous. A man may not even see the f.ice of his wile until after be trothal, or engagement of marriage. Hence the awful mistakes, and the unhappy homes, for God has made the face an index of character, and honesty or dishonesty usually is demon strated in the features. I do not tee what God made a fair face for if it were not to be looked at. But here come the crowds of di.fieured women down the road on their way to Joppa, bundles of sticks for firewood on their beads. They started at 3 o'clock in the morning to get the fuel. Thev stagger under the burdens. Whipped and beaten will some of them be if their bundle of sticks is too small. All that is required for divorcement is for a man to sav to Ins wife: "Be off, I don't want you any more." Woman a slave in all lands, exceut those in winch the Gospel of Christ makes her a queen. And jet m Christian countries there are women posing as skeptic?, and men wuhfamilr deriding the onl religion ttiat makes sacred and honorable the names of wife, mother, daughter and sister. M hat is that? Town of Ramleb, birthplace, residence and tomb of Samuel, the glorious P'ophet Near by, the tower of Forty Jtfartvrs. called because that number of disciples per ished there Tor Christ's sake; but if towers had been built for all those who in the time of war as in time of peare. havo fallen on this road during the ages past. m might almost walk on turrets from Joppa to Jerusalem. HOME Or THE BANDITTI, yow we pass guardhouses which aro castles of chopped straw and mud, where at night and partly through the da armed men dwell and keep the bandits off travelers. In the caves of these mountains dwell men to whom massacre would be high ila and a purse with a few pennies would be compensation enough for the fctrugglo that the savage might have with the wavlarer. Theie is only one other defense that amounts to much in these lands and that is the law ol hospitality If Joucan getau Arab to eat with yon. if only one mouthful j on arc sure of his protection, and that has teen so lrom age to age. The Lord's bupner was built on that custom, a special friendship after taking food together. To that custom "Walter Sacott refer in his immortal "Talis man." where Saladin, with one stroke of tho iword, strikes the bead from an enemy who stands in balaain's tent with a cup In his hand, and beforo he has time to put it to his lip, and does it so suddenly that the body of his enemy, beheaded, stands for a moment after the be heading with the cup still in his right hand. After the cup had been sipped it would have been impossible, according to the laws of Oriental hospitality, to give the fatal blow. The only lands where it is sare to travel un armed are Christian lands. Human life is mnro highly valued and personal rights are bet ter respected, aud I am glad to believe that in our countrj. from the Atlantic ocean to the Pacific ocean, thero is not a place to-dav where a man is not, safer without a pistol tnan witn one. But all through our jo irnejb in Pales tine we required firearms. While the only weapon I had on my person was a New Testa- mfit, we went luroucu ine region where I said to the dragoman: "David, arc ou armed?" and he said "Yes," and I said "Are those 15 or 20 muleteers and biegajrmcn and attendants armed?" and be said "Yes," and 1 felt saler. Here now vo come where stood tbo fields into w Inch San.f on bred the foxes. The foxes are no rarity in this land. I counted at one nmcC0or30of them in one group, and the cry all along the line was "Foxes! Look at tbo foxes!" and at night they sometimes bark un til all attempts to sleep are an absurdity. Those I saw and heard in Palestine might havo been descendant of the very foxes that Samson cmplojed tor an appalling incendiarism. SAMbOS'S SPITE-WOKK. The wealth or that land was in the harvests and It was harvest time and the straw was dry. Three hundred foxes are can-rut and tied in couples by some wire or Incombustible cord which the flames caqnot dmde.and fire-brands aro lastcned to those couples of foxes, and the affrighted creatures are let loose and run every WUliUCl iuwil IUO UAIVCBU1 JIDQ ID lUC affllli and over the hills, and among the villages is heara the cry of Firel And in the burnt path way walk Hunger and Want and Desolation. And all this for spite. And some theologians learn one thing, and some another. Bnt I learn from It that a great man may sometimes stoop to a very mean piece of business, and that if men would use as much ingenuity in trying to bleSB as tbey do in trying to destroy, tho world all the way down would bare been in better condition. Brace np your nerves now, that you may look while I point them out. Yonder is Kirjatb Jearira, where the ark of God stayed until Da vid took it to Jerusalem. Yonder John the Baptist was born. Yonder is Eiumaus where Christ walked with tbe disciples at eventide. Here is the valley or Ajalon, famous for Josh ua's pursuit of the hve kings, and the lunar arrest. And there is the cavern of Makkedah, where they fled for safety, and where they were afterward locked in, and from which tbey were taken out to be slain, and in which tbey were afterward buried: and on do well to ex amine that cavern, for within a few hours it became three things which no other cave ever was: fortress, prison, sepulchre. Now we pass tbe place where once lived one of the greatest robbers of the century. Abu Gosh by name. From this point you see he could look over all tbe surrounding country, and long before tbe travelers came up to him. the plan for the taElng of their money or their life, or both was consummated. He one day found a company ot monks who would not pay, and be smothered them to death in a hot oven. In his last days, he lived here LIKE AN ORIENTAL PRIXCE, and had his attendants aud admirers to whom be told the stories of brigandage and assassi nation. R0 iate as when our eminent and be loved American, William C. Prime, passed through, Abou Gosh, the scoundrelly Bedouin, sat at his door-way, smoking his pipe. His de scendants live in this village, and probably are no more honest than their distinguished ances tor, but marauding and murder are not as safe a business now as when all this route to Jeru salem was subject to outrages pandcmonlac. Here we pass tbo village of Latrun, home of tbe penitent thief, the village, a few straggling houses on steep hills rising from tbe vallcv of Ajalon. Up these steep hills. In his earlier da s, the thief had carried the spoils of arson aud burglary, and down them be had borne the heavier burden of a guilty heart. But higher man tuese mils ne mounted, alter ne nad re pented, from tho tranfixed posture on the cross to the bosom of a forgiving God. Now we come to the brook Elah, from which little David took the smooth stones with which he prostrated Goliath. But we mnst hasten on, for the danger now is that night will be upon us before we reach Jerusalem. Oh! we must see it before sundown. We are climbing the hills which are terraced with olive groves, up lands rising above uplands, until we come to an immensity of barrenness, grav rocks above gray rocks, where neither tree, nor leaf, nor bush, nor grass blade can grow. The horses stumble, and slip, and pull, till it seems tbe harness must break. Solemnity and awe take posses sion of us. Though a vivacious party, and during part of the day jocularity had reigned, now no one spoke a word except to say to the dragoman, "iell us when you get the first glimpse of the city." I never had snch high expectation of seeing any place as of seeing Jerusalem. I think my feelings ma? have been slightly akin to that of th6 Christian just about to enter tbe heavenly Jerusalem. My Ideas of THE EARTHLY JERTJSALESI were bewildering. Had I not seen pictures of it? Oh, yes; but they only Increase the be wilderment. They were taken from a variety of standpoints. If 20 artists attempt to sketch Brooklyn, or New York, or London, or Jeru salem, tney w ill plant their cameras at different places, and take as many different pictures, but m a few minutes I shall see thesacred city with my own eyes. Over another shoulder of the hill we go. and nothing in sight but rocks and mountains, and awful gulches between them, which make the head swim if you look down. On and up, on and up, until the lathered and smoking horses are reined in, and tbe dragoman rises in front. and s points eastward, crying, "Jerusalem!" It was d I mif.lilir than an ptpptnn fihiwt W all rose. There it lay, the prize of nations, the terminus of famous pilgrimages, the object of Roman and crusading wars, and for it Assyrians had fought, and Egyptians had fought, and tbe world had fought; the place where the Queen of sjheba visited, and Richard Coeur de Lion bad conquered. Home ot Sulnmou. Home of EzckieL Home of Jeremiah. Home of Isaiah. Home of Saladtn. Mount Zion of David's heartbreak, and Mount Moriab, where the sac rifices smoked, Mount of Olives where Jesus preached, ana Gethsemane where he agonized, and Goigotba where he died, and tbe Holy Sepulchre where he was burled. O, Jerusa lem! Jerusalem! Greatest city on earth, and type of the city celestial. After I have been 10,000 years In beaven, the memory of that first view from the rocks On the afternoon of December 2 will be as vivid as now. An Arab on a horse that was like a whirl wind, bitted and saddled and spurred, its mane and flanks jet as th o night and there are no such horsem-n as Arab horsmen had come far out to meet us, and invite ns to his hotel inside the gates. But arrangements had been made lor us to stay at a hotel outside the gates. In the dusk of evening we baited in front of the place and entered, but 1 said: "No, thank vou for your conrteous reception, bnt I mnst sleep to-night inside the gates of Jerusalem. I would rattier have the poorest place Inside the gates than tbe best place outside." A REVIEW OF TRADE. Some of the Effects of the Tariff Law in Grocery Lines. CANNED GOODS AND FRUITS FIRM. Heavy Receipts of Flour and Oats Weaken Tone of Markets. FEATURES OP TI1E WEEK'S BUSINESS ENTERING THE HOLY CITY. So we remounted our coach and moved on amid a clamor of voices, and between camels grunting with great beams and timbers on their back, brought in for building purposes for it is amazing how much a camel can carry until we cjnie to what is called the Joppa Gate ot Jerusalem. It is about 10 feet wide, 20 feet deep and 60 feet high. There is a sharp turn just after you have entered, so planned as to make the entrance of armed enemies the more difficult. On the structure of these gates the safety of Jerusalem depended, and all the Bible writers used them for illustrations. Within five minutes' walk of the gate we entered, David wrote: "Knter into thy gates with thanksgiving," "Lift up your heads. O, ye gates!" "The Lord loveth the gates of Zion." "Open to me the gates of righteousness." And Isaiah wrote: "Go through, go through the gates." And the captive of Patmos wrote: "The city had 12 gates." Having passed the gate, we went on through the narrow streets, dimly lighted, and passed to our halting place, and sat down bv the window from which we could see Mount Zion, and said: "Here we are at last, hi the capital of tbe whole earth." And thoughts or the past and the future rushed through my soul in quick succession, and I thought of that old hmn, sung by so many ascending -pints: Jerusalem, in v happy home, Name ever dear to mp! "N hen shall mv labors have an end, in Joy and peace and thee? When shall these eyes thy heav'n-bullt walls And pearlv Rates behold? Thy bulwarks with salvation strong, And streets of shining gold? And so with our hearts full of gratitude to God for journeying mercies all tbe way from Joppa to Jerusalem, and with bright anticipa tion of our entrance into tbe shining gate of tne heavenly city when earthly journeys are over, my second day in Palestine is ended. Wool Slarkets. Louis Wool receipts, 32,055 pounds: OFFICE OF PITTSBURG DISPATCII. 1 Saturday, October 4, 1890. 5 The important factor in tbe week's job bing grocery trade has been the enactment of the new tariff law. The effect is already felt in an upward tendency of foreign fruits and higher prices prevail in New York. Here it is only a question of a few days when all fruits from foreign shores, such as raisins, Iruits, etc., and all canned goods of every kind, will find a higher level. The tariff on tin plate will also have the effect of advancing prices on all canned goods for a yery obvious reason. As this is a season of already high prices and scarcity in fruit and vegetable lines, tbe average consumer will be compelled to cultivate the grace of sell-denial more than usual in the season before us. The great grocery staples, sugar and coffee, have undergone no change dnring the week. Coffee options have been fluctuating slightly from day to day, with a general drift toward a higher level. Packages, however, move alone in the same old ruts, to tbe disappointment of all but a few of tbe largest jobbers. Sugar markets are firm enough for an ad vance. According to reports from leading wholesale grocers the month of September showed great activity. It Is safe to say that tbe amount of goods handled by our ciU's firms was beyond any previous corresponding month in our trade history. There is no better sign of the healthy pros perity of our cit than the great activity of our immenso wholesale grocery houses. In Cerent Linen. It will be seen by reference to the domestic market column, that tbe receipts of grain and hay for the week have been the largest for many weeks, the total being 309 car loads. The receipts of oats alone, lacked one car of a hun dred. The heavy supplies are due in part to the breaking of Western railroad blockades, and better facilities in transportation. There are no longer the vexatious delays there were during a great part of September. Now the movement caused is of another type, namely, that stun" is coming in too freely. As a result of tbe heavy arrivals, oats aud flour have shown weakening tendencies for a few days past. Tbe amount of flour in the hands of Pitts burg jobbers is larger than usual, and the trade has been rather qnieter than usual tho past few days. However, there is little apprehension of a drop, as latest ad vices from tbe Northwest show a better tone to tbe wheat market. While choice grades of nay are nrm on account oi scarcity, tnis is no doubt only temporary, as tbe crop Is one of the largest tbe country ever saw. A leading grain dealer who spent the past few days in an ex ploring tour through Washington and the southern part of Allegheny counties, said that through tbat section such a yield of hay was never known, and that tbe grazing is now extra good for this time of the year as a result of re cent rains. The rains which have proved so timely to pasture lands, have had a bad effect on roads. Bad roads are without doubt respon sible for the late scarcity of choice hay in tbe market, and there will be plenty later on. Country Produce. Two adverse influences were felt by produce commission merchants tbe past week. In the early part of the week, when the skies were bright, the month was winding up its career and retailers are accustomed to buy sparingly at such a time for tbe reason tbat bills are ren dered the first cf the month. The last days of tho week wet weather interfered somewhat with trade. There have been few changes to markets during the week. All good stock in tbe lines of vegetables and dairy are firmly held at prices which prevailed a week ago. Granes touched their lowest noint for the sea son withtr a day or two. It is estimated that close to 100 carloads of grapes were bandied by produce commission merchants in tbe two weeks past. Last Saturdays prices of nro- visiousworo reaffirmed arthe regular meeting of ths pork packers held to-day. Hides and calfskins are still dull with the situation in buyer's favor. , LIVE STOCK MASKETS. The Condition of Business nt the Eait Liberty Stock Ynrrf. Office of The Pittsburo Dispatch i Saturday.

A Sharp Upturn In the Grain Fit Every thing 4ctlve nnd Higher Corn Said to be Tarnlns Out Poorly Pol k Llf eld. CHICAGO Wheat There was,more life to the market to-day, and a higher range of prices was established. The feeliug was decidedly stronger. In tbe oversold condition of the market was tbe sharp advance of to-day no doubt attributable. Many of the dealers who were buyers the pasjt dav or two were sellers, and sellers of the past f ow days were buyers. The unexpected happened, aud operators felt a little nervous over the situation. Some parties thought the market a healthy one. Others were rather doubtful and thought it only a scare to force in some largo traders. Tbe opening was la higher than yesterday's clos ing, and there' was some excitement attending first sales; then eased off c for December and c for May, advanced, and closed l?2c higher man yesterday. Corn attracted more than usual attention, a large volume of business being transacted within a broader range than any day this week. Ihe feeling developed was much stronger, and higher prices were the rule on all futures. The advance was due largely to the purchases of May by several large local bouses, two of whom took in all about 100.000 bushels. Reports were received from the West stating tbat corn was husking out poorly. First trades were at an advance of c the markat selling ftp an other ic reacted Jc. then sold up lc, eased up c, ruled firmer and closed with a llic gain.

Quite a Busy Sundny of Preparation on the Who if. Sunday was not observed on the levee yester day very vigorously.

No boats were loaded, bnt there was much activity making preparations to load the boats after midnight. The Hudson left late Satnrday night with a large cargo, and refused consider able freight here, having engagements below. At East Liverpool about 200 horses and carts were shipped to Cedrlc by a contractor to be used in building itbe Norfolk and Western Railroad at that point.

The opening was made at lower figures, the losses from lat night's prices extending gen erally to per cent hut Kansas and Texas was exceptional, with a losi of per cent. The downward movement went but little farther for the time being, the trading element start ing in to cover, but the movement lacked vim and later all those stocks were thrown over and the bears crowded the market with an avalanche of short stocks which broke the market badly especially in the grangers. Soutbwesterns and the stocks of the Pacific roads. There was no cessation of tbe pressure, which lasted right to tbe close and. although there was a slight re action in the final dealings, the close was active and weak, practically at the lowest flgnres.
