r&pw sp'spr THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH. MONDAY JANUARY 12, 1S91T Wi WORDS TO OUTSIDERS. IJer. Dr. Talniatje Speaks Especially to tbe Son-Church-Goers. KO JIOXUPOLY IK EEAL RELIGION. The Door Wide Open for the Return of Those Oat in the Cold. HE AETER SCOFFED AT SKEPTICISM Brooklyn, Jan. 11. The following powerful sermon to non-church-goers was delivered by Dr. Tain-age this morning in the Academy of Music, this city, and again in the evening at service in the New STork Academy of Music At the latter service the new choir of "00 voices mast effectively led the musical exercises. Dr. Talmage's text was John 10: 1G. "Other sheep I have which are not of this fold." There is no monopoly in religion. The grace of God is not a nice little property fenced off all for ours-elvcs. It is not a king's park, at which we look through a barred gateway, wish ing we illicit go in and pluck the flowers and look at the deer and the statuary. It is a father's orchard, and there are liars to let down, and gates to swing open. In rav boyhood days, next to the country school house liro 1 went, there was an apple orchard ot creat luxuriance, owned by avory lame man who did not gather the apile-, aud they went to wate lij scores of ldhel. some times the lads of tbe bobool, in the sinfulness of a nature inherited from our first parents who fell through the sane temptation, would climb over tl e fence and take f ome of these apples, and notwitt standing the fact that there was a surplus and all going to waste, the owner of that orchard, reckless of making bis lame ness worse, would take after these lads, and shout, Bms drop those apples, or I'll st the dog on ion!" Now there are Christians who hate severe guard over the Church of God. Thevbavea. rough and unsympathetic nay of treating outsider. It is a great orchard into which God would like to bae all tbe people coins and take the richest and the ripest 'fruit, and the more they take tbe better he likes it. But there are those w bo stand with a hard and secre nature guarding tbe Church of Cod, and all the tunc afraid mat some will get these ap ples when tbey rcallj ought not to have them. A Great Multitude Coming. Have you any idea that, because you were baptized at 8 months of age, and because you have all our life been surronnded by hallowed influences, you have a right to one whole side of the Lord's table, spreading yourself out so nobody cl-e can sit there ? You Hill bavcto haul in jour elbows, and there will come a great multitude, to sit at the table, and on both subs of you. Yon are not going to hae this monopoly ot religion other sheep have I which aie not of this fold." McDonald, the Scotchman, has on the Scotch bills a great flock of sheep. .McDonald has 1 000 or 5.000 head of sheep. Some are browsing in the heather, some arc on the bills, some are in the wallers, a few aie in tne yard. One day Cameron comes over to McDonald and sas: "McDonald, you have 30 sheep; I have been counting them " "Oh, no!" savs McDonald, "I have 4.0C0 or 5.1100." "Ah!" say s Cameron, "y nu are tiutakpn; I lure just counted them: there are Stt" " hy," says .McDonald, "do yo J sup pose that is all the sheep I have? I have sheep -ju the Distant lulls and in the valleys, ranging and roaming even w here. Other sheep have I which are not ot this fold." ho Christ comes. Here is a group of Chris tians and there is a group of Christians; here is a Methodist fold, here isa I'res'iy terian fold, bcreisaBapti-t fold, here is a Lutheran fold, and we inaku our annual statistics, and we think eun tell vou just bow many Chris tians there aie Pi the world: how many there are in the Cliuich. how inanvnf all thesn fin. nominations. We aggregate them, and weS think we arc gmng an intelligent and an ac curate account: but Christ comes, and he says, "You bat e not counted them right. There are those whom you have never seen, those of whom you have never beard. I have my chil dren in all parts of the earth, on all tbe lslanas of the sea, in all tb continents, in all the moutt Jtaius and in all the valleys. Do you think that 'these few sheep vou bte conntcd are all the 1 sheep I have There is a great multitude tha. no man can number. Other sheep have I which J are not of this fold." The Lost bhecp to Be Found. Cliri't say s that ministers of the gospel are to he fishers lor men. Xoo when I go fishing I do not want to go fishing in anybody else's pond. I douot want to go along Hobokus creek, wbeie there are 10 or 15 men fishingand dropmyllne just about where tbey are drop ping their line. 1 should like to get m a "cw founaltnd fishing smack and push out to set about 50 miles beyond the breakers. I do not think the Churrhof God gains a great deal when you take sheep from one fold -and put them in another fold. It is the lost sheep on the mountains you want to bring back tbe lost shiep on the mountains. And tbey are coming to-day. Yon -ire now this hour in the tide of Chris tian influences; you are going to be swept in; tour oice is going to be beard in prayer; you are going to be consecrated to God: you are going to live a hie of usefulness, and.) our deathbed Is going to be surrounded bv Chris tian sympathizers; and devout men will carry you to tour burial when your work is dune and these words will be chiseled for your epi taph Precious in the sight of tbe Lord is the death of His saints." Aud all that histi ry is going to begin to-day. "Other sheep have I which are not of tbis fold." Again I remark, the Heavenly Shepherd is going to find inanv of His sheep among those who arc now rejecters of Christianity. I do not know bow you came to reject Christianity. I do no- know whether it was through bearing Theodore Parker preach, or whether it was reading Kenan's Lite or Jesus," or whether it was through some skeptic in the store or fac tory. Or It may be probably is the case that you w ere disgusted with religion and disgusted with Christianity because some man who pro fessed to be a Christian defrauded vou, and he being a member of the church, and you taking him as a representative or the Christian re llgion. you slid, "Well, if that's religion. I don't want any of it." Going to Ask a Tatar. I do not know bow you came to reject Chris tianity, but you frankly tell me you do reject it; you do not think the Bible is the Word of God, although there are many things in it you ad mire; you do not think that Christ was a divine being, although you think He was a very good man. You saj, "If tbe Bible be trne the most of the Biblo be trne I nevertheless think the earlier part of tbe Bible is an alle gory." And there are 50 things that I belie-, e 3 nu do not beliet c. Nevertheless they tell me in regard to you that you are an accommo dating, jou aie an obliging person. If I should come to tou and ask of you a favor you would grantit, if it wcrepns-ible. It would be a joy for you to grant me a favor. If any of yuur friend, came to you and wanted an accommo dation, aud you could accommodate them, bow glad you would be! Now I am going to ask of you a favor. I want tou to oblige me. The accommodation will cost tou nothing, and will gno me great happiness. Of course tou will not deny me. I want you as an experiment to try the Chris tian religion. If it doc not stand the test, dis card it; it it does, rccehe it. It viu were very sick.and you bad been given up of the doctors, and 1 came to you and 1 took these medicines will fail me' -Writ" I ur will yon not, as a matter of accommodation to lmself. just try it" "Well." you say, "I have no objection to trungit; if win be any satis faction to y on 1 w ill try it," Yon take it. Now you are sick iu disquietude, sick in sin. You are not haopy. You laugh sometimes when you are miserable. There come surges of unbap pmess over your soul that almost-swamp you. ou are unhappy, struck through with unrest. Now will tou mt try this solace, this febrifuge, this anodyne, this gospel medicine? "Oh," you sav. "1 haven't any faith in it." As a mat ter of accommodation, let me introduce you to the Lord Jesus Christ, the Great Physician "Whj." you say, "1 haven't any faith in Him." "Well, now, will yon not just let Him come and U His pow'er on your sonlT Just let me intro duce Him to you. I ao not ask you to take my Wurdforit. I do not ask you to take the ad tice of clers-jmen. Perhaps tbe clergymen may benrejuiiiced: perhaps we may be speak ing professionally; perhaps we may give you wrong adt ice; perhaps we are morbid on that subject; so I do not ask you to take the advice of oiergjtnen. I ask you to take the advice of very respectable laymen, such as William Shakespeare, the dramatist; as William Wil. tierforce. the statesman: as Isaac Newton, the astroi.omer; as Robert Boyle, tbe philosopher; as Locke, the metaphysician; as Morse, the electrician Never Scoffed at Skepticism. Thcte men never preached tbey never pre tended to preach but thev come out, and put ting down, one his telescope and another the electrician's wire, and another tho Parliamen tary scroll they come out and they commend Christ as a comfort to all the people, a Christ that the world needs. Now I do not ask vou to take the advice of clergymen. Take the ad vice of these laymen. It does not make anv difference to me at this juncture what vou have said against the Bible; it does not make any difference to me at tbis juncture howyou may bare caricatured religion. Take -the advice of men who are prominent in secular affairs, as these men whom I hare mentioned, and a. ouiiicoi inemcine irrnn my pocket and said, "Here is medicine I am sure will help jou::t has cured 50 people." you would sav, "Oh, I haven't any confidence in i--Hiv--u n, ail others who immediately occur to your mind. Tou sea 1 do not scoff at skepticism. I never scoffed at skepticism. I bad a good reason for not scoffing. I hare been a natural skeptic. I do not know what the first word was that I uttered after entering tbis world, but I think It roust have been "why." There were times when 1 doubted the existence of God, when I doubted the divinity of Christ, when I doubted the immortality of the soul, when I doubted everything. I have been through the wbole -curriculum of doubt, and you can tell me nothing new about it. I have come out from a great bahara desert into the calm, warm, sunshiny Jandif tbe gospel. I know about the other land. 1 have been there. You can tell me nothing new about it; and 1 know all abput the other condition of which you do not know anything tbe peace, the com fort, the joy, the triumph of trusting in God, and in Jesns Christ whom he has sent. Sol am not scoffing in regard to it. There are some things I believe that you do not; but there are some things that I believe and you do believe. You believe in love a father's love, a mother's love, a wife's love, a child's love. Now let me tell yon, God lores you more than All of them together: and you must come in. you will come in. Christ looks iu all tenderness, with tbe infinite tenderness ot the, gospel, into our soul.'and He says, "Tbis is your time Tor heaven;" and;then He waves His band to the people of God. and He says. "Other sheep bare 1 which are not of this told." Swing the Door Wide Open. There may be in this bouse some whose hand trembles so with dissipation they could hardly hold a hymn book. I say to such, if tbey are here. "You will preach the gospel yet; you will yet, some of you, carry tbo Holy Communion through the aisles, and you will be acceptable to everybody because everybody will know you are sat cd and purified by tbe grace of God, and a consecrated man, wholly consecrated. Your business has got to come up, your phjsical health is to be rebuilt, your family is to be restored, tbe Church of God on earth and in beaten is to rejoice over tour coming. "Other sheen hat el which are not of this fold." If tbis is not tbe gospel I do not know what the gospel is. It can scale any height, it can fathom any depth, it can compass any infinity. I think one reason why there are not more people saved is we do not swing the door wide enough open. Now there is only one class of persons in this bouse about v-lium I hare any despondency, and that is those who have been bearing the gospel for perhaps 20, 30. 40 years. Their out ward life moral, but tbey tell you frankly they do not lire, the Lord Jesus Cbrist, bare not trusted Him, have not been born again by the spirit of God. They are gospel-hardened. The gospel has no more effect upon them than tbe shining of the moon on the city pave ment. The publicans and tbe harlots go into the kingdom of God be Tore they. Tbey went through, some of tbem, the revival of 1857, when 500 000 souls were brought to God. Some of them went through trot revivals in indi vidual churches, btill unpardoned, unblessed, unsaved. Tbey were merely spectators. Gospel hardened! Alter awhile we will bearthatthey are sick, auu then that tbey are dead, and then that tjiey died without any hope. Gospel hardened. But I turn away trom all such with a thrill of hope to those who are not gospel hardened. Some of yon have not heard, per haps, five sermons in five years. This whole subject has been a novelty to you for some time. Yon are not goipel-bardened; you know you are not gospel-hardened. Tbe wbole sub ject comes freshly to your mind. I hear some soul saung: "O my wasted life! O tbe bitter past! ( I the graves I stumbled over! Whither shall I fir? The luture U so dark, so dark, so very dark. God help me!" xTEW TOM STOCKS. The Harmonious Conference of Railroad Presidents Is Uie Leading Factor in the Situation Coal Shares Slug gish, but Others Full of Life. New Yokk. Jan. 10. The complete harmony existing in the confeiencc of railroad managers now in session in tbis city, has proved to be the greatest stimulating influence upon tbe stock market which we have bad foe months. To-day it turned tbo temper of the foreign operators from bear to bull, while the confidence displayed by domestic .operators of all descriptions has been the most prominent fur several days. Tbe offerings of stocks arc becoming lighter from day to day, owing to the general revira', of confidence in the futnro of the railroads in this country, and there is uow in tbe street a genera feeling that during the next 60 days tbem will be a com plete recovery from tbe recent depression. To-day another large Ircrtase in the banc re serves was shown aud X 2 surplus is now raised to above $13,000,000, abguti which It has seen only once forthc past six modth. and that was when the heavy disbursements were madt by the Treasury last fall. The improvement in the temper of tbe street was apparent with tbe first sales, and everything was higher, while an extraordinarily actiyet business was transacted,--with the result of scoring furtheradvances over tbe whole list. n The only sluggish stocks. were the coalers which have all had such marked advances in the past week. The- sky-rocket advance in .Sugar Refineries was continued, aided by the announcement that the order appointing tbe receivers bad been vacated, and the property was to bo turned over to tbe trust, es. wbo will goon with the Plan of reorganization. The stock rose from 064 to 71,-and closed atTOJs The Villards were .. strong uoint in tbe market: thu Grangers werj all prominent, but the Gould stocks were sluggish.

POULTRY AKD BUTTER ARE WEAK. Wild Winter Weather Bas ImproTed Prices of Grain and liar. HIDES AEE ACT1YE AT THE DECLISE Office of Pittsburo dispatch, ) ' Saiurdat. JiU. 10. ( Produce and Cereals. Trade for tbe week has been quiet. Tbe lull which follows the holiday trade is here. Poultry supply is in excess of demand and prices are tending lower. The first German cabbage of the season arrived this week, and demand is good at more than double the price of the qatjve article. Among the features of the weeK has been the adyance in onions. Creamery and coun try butter are still slow and prices are a shade lower than a week ago. In the lines of cheese and eggs trade has been quiet since the holidays, but not so quiet as last year or the year before. At tbis time a year ago eggs were selling at about 10c per dozen below present prices. A leading dealer in tbis line permitted an inspection of bis books, which recorded sales of fresh eggs Jan uary 11, 1890, at .0c per dozen, and Elgin cream cry butter at 27c per lb. Last w inter there as no cold weather and about tbis time there was a sharp decline in eggs and butter. Cheese at this date is about lc per & lower than it was this time a year azo. Last winter furnished no cold weather worth speaking of, and prices of butter and eggs were on the downward drift at this timo a year ago. Creamery butter has dropped lc per Si tho past wefk, but is still 3 to 4c per S hlgber than at tbis time a year ago. Tropical Fruits. The late cold snap has proved adverse to trade in tropical fruit lines. Lemons are away off. and top prices are tl per box below prices of a week ago. There were fonr steamers last week in tbe New York harbor loaded with lemons, and a tine opportunity was furnished to the bears on account of cold weather. It goes without saying that tbey made the most of their opportunity. Bananas are slow. Quality of oranges on the market of late is goud, but markets are dull. Dealers in tropical fruits charge up siownefs of markets to cold weather. When mercury approaches zero line the taste for bananas and oranges loses its edge. The Cereal .Markets. Tbe tendency of cereal markets for the week past bas been upward. Oats are Zc to 3c per bushel higher than at the beginning of tbe week, and prospects arc tor still higher prices. Corn is also firm, with an advancing tendency. Flour is steady, without change. In the North west prices are firm for good values, but wnne stocks here are light, there are no Indications of an upward movement. Hay is coming in freely of late, and only high grades hold their own. The Situation in Hides. Markets are active at the late decline and, from present appearances, bottom has been reached. Both East and West prices have been down for a week or two past, but Pittsburg, true to its well-known conservative instincts, was among tbe last to yield to tbe downward Sressure. At last tanners and bide dealers, ere have submitted to tbe inevitable, and have agreed on the following scale of prices, to go into effect Monday, January 12, 1S91: Classification of hides and scae of prices adopted by tbe tanners of Pittsburg and Alle gheny Cll), to take effect iloudav, January 12, 1S9I: Green steer hides, -trimmed, 75 pounds and up, 7 cents per pound.
