Mr. Ponefcoo Gives Good Advice to the Tounff Man of the Day. SOME OTHEU SERMONS OF IESTERDAI Yesterday being the one hundred and thirty-second anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns, the beloved Scotch poet, Eev. Dr. J. G. Townsend, of the Unitarian Church, delivered a sermon devoted to the bard. There was a large attendance, and the discourse was attentively listened to. After giving a short biographical sketch of the poet, Dr. Townsend said; But turn ing away from the outward incidents of his life, in no way remarkable in themselves, let us look at the man himself, aud ask what he did with the gift he possessed. And it is not formal praise to say there never lived a warmer, kinder, truer soul. His love went out to the borrowing and de feated ones. His sympathy overflowed ever for the Mounded hare, and the mountain daisy uprooted by the plow. Wee, modest, crimson-tipped flower, Tcon's met me in a luckless hoar. There was in him a right royal pride. Iu the presence of the nobility there was no fawning or cringing. "When in Edinburgh, praise encircling him like a cloud, be met lus old peasant acquaintances in the same old hearty way. Robert Burns was a mar, of transparent sincerity. He wore no disguises, social or religious. His heart was as crystalline as his life. It is true he had hi faults, his sins. But his faults were faults of gener osity and affection, and as to his sins, who ever mourned them with sincerer pain, or made more heroic struggles to he free from them? There was in him a mind of finest grain and of commanding strength. He was not a mere rhymester, but a poetKsent into the world to be au inspiration and a joy- The Preacher's Definition of Poetry. But what is poetry? Poetry is the inter preter of the universal melody, the revcaler of the real but Invisible palaces, where, the mind may find refreshment and delight. All nature is one. Notonlvthe star and the stnne, the bird and bee, bnt the spider and the snake, are true notes in the univer sal melody. The cyclone is as musical as the sea wave's laugh on the shingle, or the caroling of the lark. Every sound is a minor strain in the grand symphony of cre ation. Now the poet's ear catches the "primal warbling?.' He translates the song of the universe to us of duller ears. Poetry aud religion are twin stars, shining in the same sky. All those men who have the vision of the infinite mountain, those "archangels" of the human race, Paul, Dante, Milton, Goethe, Burns, have the teamed the infinite in them. But what did Burns with this high and awlul gift? This is pertinent. But con sider wbat be contended with. Hilton at 21 was the best educated young man of his times. Burns had the education of a peas ant's hut. Look at his continuous poverty. Carlyle speaks of Milton, old, poor and blind, writing "Paradise Lost." But there is no comparison. John Milton was reared in affluence, and, while poor in his old age, always had sufficient lor bis simple wants. Then Burns had the poorest materials he must create his own materials. "So one be fore him had shown the capacity of the Scottish tongue for poetry. A Builder of Palaces of Beauty. But with his rude and scant materials Burns built palaces of truth and beauty which will abide forever. But, notwith standing the mighty odds, what lasting work he didl To the assertion that his genius bore no adequate fruit, and that bis life was self-defeated, I must dissent. Adverse circumstances were too strong for him. Poverty was the weight upon the Ftrong pinion of the poet that bore it down at last to the dust. But was his work small? Who ever did so much for Scot land as the peasant poet? He gave Scot land a literature, taught hour to bend the harsh words like wax, as Michael Angelo was said to bend the marble. He evoked the national sentiment and made Scotland once more a nation. Into the somber Pres byterianisni of his time he poured a sunny warmth. He made 'all Scotland richer nay, all humanity richer in beauty and joy. His words shine in the speech of the statesman, adorn the composition of the school girl, and relieve the traditional dull ness of the minister's sermon. But he made uo long poem? Aye, but even his crumbs are better than other men's loaves. Milton's "Coinus" surpassed the "Para dise Lost" in moral elevation, in musical unity, iu lyric beauty. But what is the quality in Burns' poems that gives un wonted value? It is their truth, their in comparable fidelity, their simplicity, and their humanity. He speaks what is in him, and in us, in our better hours. Out of the common strands of the peasants' life Burns wove for us the "Cotter's Saturday "Sight," the "Holy Fair." the "Owne Cottle." The "Wounded Hare" suggests thoughts that call out our scorn or our tears. The Religion of the Tost. Was Burns religious? If to feel the pres ence of the Infinite, if to keep a heart warm to all human things, if to have a sympathy which included even the "owrie co'ttle" and the "sillie sheep," is religion, then Burns was one of the most profouudly religious souls. Is not "To Mary in Heaven" one of the most tender of prayers? In my estima tion ol his griuusl do notplace Burns above his rank. He was not so large a nature as Shakespeare. Shakespeare was the grand organ, every key 01 which poured out music, but the genius"of Burns was of the same royal quality. It was pure gold. I canuot quote much, but these lines, worthy to be written on the white marble of a per petual remembrance lines which will be iresh and beautilul in a thousand thousand years come to me For a' that and a' that. It's coming yet, for a thar, Tim man 16 man the world o'er Shall brothers bo for a that. THE FRAILTIES OF MEN Closely Scrutinized and Adtice Given by Bev. E. B- Donehoo. Eev. E. R. Donehoo, ot the Eighth Pres byterian Church, West End, preached a very forcible and eloquent sermon last even ing on "A Man Void of Understanding," taken from Proverbs, vii:7. The story told by Solomon about a young man who wasted iuto temptation by a woman, was localized, and the moral clearly pointed out. Corner Idlers and men who care only for their ap pearance and notbinc for their souls' wel fare were given a terrible scorching. In closing his sermon, Mr. Donehoo said: "Young man, is there anythiug iu the picture here drawn which answers to A de scription of yoursell? How do you spend your evenings? What kind ot society are vou seeking in which to spend your idle hours? Take warning in time. Question your own soul, and see if there are immortal cravings, which keep imploring you to get wisdom and understanding ere the tendrils of hope and virtue and truth wither and die for lack of nourishment, aud the divine spirit within be quenched in darkness. Re member that while neat and comfortable at, tire is fitting and proper, yet clothes never did and never will compensate for a mind uncared for or suffered to fill itself with the seeds ol vice, which are blown toward it from every quarter." Only a Prayer Service Held. ' A prayer service was held yestefBay morning in the Iter. J. It. J. Million's B. P. Church, Sandusky street, Allegheny. No mention was made ot forsiing a new church. The pastor was present as a member of the congregation. , "WORK DONE BY WOMEN. Kev. S. W. McCorkle Draws a Lesson From the Heroines of History. "Deborah, or an Old Testament Heroine," formed the basis for the discourse of Kev. S. W. McCorkle, of the First Congregational Church, Allegheny, last evening. She was shown to embody many of the best qualities of head and heart, and was a good type of heroic womanhood. She was an agitator, inciting her people to avenge themselves and throw ofTtheyokeof foreign dominion. Not only could she agitate, but she could fight; lead armies successfully to battle. Reference was made to the heroic quality, when aroused, of the gentler sex. History fur nishes no parallel to the war-like Amazons of South America, who, to throw oft' the galling tyranny of brutal men. banded them selves together'and fought like tigresses. England will never forget the bold deeds of Margaret of Anjou, who, at the head of her northern forces, swept over the country like a cyclone, destroying artuies.and tear ing down thrones, while in France, Joan of Arc heads the list of military wonders. She was shown, also, to be the ruler, teacher and poetess of her people. The quality of self sacrifice was referred to aud illustrated. Virginia submitted to be stabbed to the heart by her father rather thau fall into the hands of the enemies of her country. The Carthagonrian girls cut off" their beautilul tresses to be made into bowstrings for their lovers to fight with. The Spartan mothers told their sons to come back victors or be borne back on their shields. THE GOOD OF SKEPTICS. Kev. W. S. Williams, of Christ Universalis! Church, on Unbelievers. Eev. W. S. Williams, of Christ TJniver salist Church, preached last night on the subjects of "Skeptics the True Church Eulo gies" and "A Beligion to Live by and a Religion to Die By." He said:, "We hear a great deal almost every day about skep tics, agnostics and doubters, and all those who herons to the category of unbelievers. We hear about them so much, and tbey are sometimes considered the worst people on caith. But this is a questionable age. Evi dence is demanded for everything. Credu lity, suspicion, legends, etc., don't go in. this age, and wc must have something to prove our statements. He that doubts until h calls forth proof is a benefactor rather than otherwise." The church will hold a series of gospel meetings, beginning to-morrow evening. Mr. Williams will be assisted by prominent ministers from out oi the city. The famous Boston revival singer, Stamford Mitchell, will conduct the music. REPENTANCE AND FATTH. Three Chinamen Baptized at the Fourth Avenue Baptist Church. At the Fourth Avenue Baptist Church last night alter the service five persons were baptized, including three Chinamen, Fong Gun, Fong Loy and Lee Wing. Only two other Chinamen have ever been baptized in Pittsburg and their baptism occurred only a few weeks ago in the same church. Lee Wing is a relative of one of the men bap tized before. That man is at the head of the Lee family in Pittsburg and is probably the most Influential Chinaman in the city. The church has a most flourishing Chinese mission, there being about 35 regular attend ants. The work is proving most successful. Before the baptismal services the pastor. Jlcv. Henry C. Applcgarth, Jr., preached from the subject, "Meaning ot itepeutance and Faith." Young 3Ien in Business Life. Eev. W. F. Conner spoke last evening at the Arch Street M. E. Church on young men in business life. He prefaced his re marks with the statement that be had not investigated the subject, and that hence any thing lie might say was based on what people had told him. He believed that each man should choose a calliug early in life. He also believed that circumstances usually governed the choice. Was Adam a Hebrew? Rev. Wilbur F. Craft, of New York, preached yesterday morning at the Second TJ. P. Church, of Allegheny, taking for his subject, "Was Adam a Hebrew?" His ad dress was to show the re.ison why the first day of the week should he the Sabbath day, r.-uher than the seventh, as under the Hebrew law. Satisfied With the Innovation. Regular services were held yesterday, for tbe first time on Sunday, by the Reformed Hebrews at the Eighth Street Synagogue. There was an unusually large audience present, and both Dr. L. Mayer, the rabbi, and the entire congregation expressed their approval of the change. Carnegie Hall Filled Again. A big audience listened again to a "gospel service for men only," at Carnegie Hall, yesterday. D. W. Whittle spoke. ANOTHEB CHT2CH TO DEDICATE The New St. Paul's German Lutheran Build Ins an Allegheny Ornament. The new building of the St. Paul's Ger man Lutheran Church, at the corner of Chartiers and Adams streets, Allegheny, will be dedicated Sunday, February 22. Prof. Charles Heminhaus, of Columbus, O., will preach the dedicatory sermon in Ger man, and Eev. E. Cromwell will deliver the English, sermon. In the evening the services will be conducted hv Rev. S. P. Long, of Msssillon, O., in English, while Eev. H. J. Schub, of Allegheny, will preach in German. Rev. A. E. Kuldel, pastor of St. Paul's will assist at all the ser vices. The church is a fine brick structure, 60x41 feet, and has a spire 90 feet in height. It cost about 10,000. All the work is fin ished except placing the altar aud pews in position, and a few touches to the painting. The altar will be a great ornament to the church. It is one of tbe handsomest in the city. Frederick Meyer, the well-known sculptor and carver, is a member of the congregation, and has made a presentation of the altar. It is his own handiwork. Entertained by the Ossified Man. Jonathan Bass, the famous "ossified man," was last evening examined by about a dozen representative physicians, who united in the expression that the poor man's condition is certainly one of extreme interest to the med ical fraternity. Mr. Bass proved an enter taining host at the reception, which was well attended by others than doctors inter ested in his peculiar case. The Everett Club Pianos This Week.
