DEATH CUJiTAIIED TO A SrORTSilAX
!rZCIAI. TELEGBAU TO THX CIBFATCS.I
IJeo'orlyx, Jan. 25. Dr. Talmage
preached the following sermon this morning
in the Academy of Music in this city, and
he repeated it to-night at the service in the
2Cew York Academy of Music His text
was Daniel 5:31): "In that night was Bel
khsziar, the lung of the Chaldeans, slain."
"After the siteof Babjlon had been selected.
2.000,000 of men were employed for the con
struction i the wall and principal w orks. The
walls of the city were 00 miles in circumfer
ence. They were surrounded by a trench, out
of wbich had been dug the material
for the construction of the city. Tbero
were 25 cites of solid brass on
each side ot the square city. Between
every two Rates a gi-at atch tower sprang up
into tbe heavens From each of tbe 25 Rates,
on eitl er side, a street ran straight through to
the Kte on the other side. that there were
5u streets, eacli 15 miles long, which gate to the
city an appeaiance of wonderful regularity.
The bouse-, did not join each other on tbe
ground, and between mem were cardans and
shriiblicrv. l'rom lionsctop to housetop
bridges --.wnnc, uicr which the inhabitants
were accustomed totiass. A branch of the Eu
phrates went through tbe city, over which a
bruise f nianclousftructure was throv.u, and
under which a tu.n.el ran.
To keep the rner from overflowing the city
m tune-, of freshet, a great lake was arranged
xocatchiho suriilus, in which the water as
Leptasinare--eroiruntil times of thought,
when it was sent streaming down over the
tbir-.tvl.and. A palarc siood at each cud of the
Euphrates biidrc: one palace a mile and thrce-quani-.
in co-upas--, and the other palace
s,e-,cnardalialf mile- in circumference. The
wife of Nebuchadnezzar, having been brought
up among the mountains of Iedia. could uot
stand it in this ll.it cuuntrv of Babylon, and so,
to please her, Nebuchadnezzar had a moun
tain -.00 feet high, built in the mid-.t of the city.
3 his luounxaiu was surrounded by terraces, for
the support of -ttbi-h great arches were lifted.
I-Milnill- ll Good llusbaml.
On the top of these arches flat stones were
laid: then a layer of reeds and bitumen: then
to rows ot bricks cloel.vcemented; then thick
sheets of lead, npon which the soil was placed.
The earth be deposited was so deep that the
largest trees had room to anchor their roots.
All the glory of the flowery tropics was spread
out at that tremendous height, until it must
liar seemed to one below as though theclouds
were all in blossom, and the very sky leaned on
the shoulder of the cedar. At tbo top an en
gine was constructed, which drew the water
lrom the Euphrates, far below, and mailc it
i-pout up amid this garden of the skies. All
this to please his wife! I think she must have
liecn pie. hed.
In the mul-t or this city stood also the temple
ofilrlLs. One of its towels was one-eighth of
a mile high, and on the top of it an observatory,
which gave tbe astronomers great advantage,
as. being at to great a height, one could easily
talk with the stars. 7 his temple was full of
-cup-, and statues and centers, all of gold.
One image weighed a thousand Uibvl-mi-.h
taletitr-, which would be equal to S52,00U,UX).
All .this by day, but now night was about to
(vine nor.ii oo ljh.lnii. The shadows of
lier 50 towers began to lengthen. The
jCuplirates rolled on, touched by the fiery
splendors of the setting sun, and gates of
bras, burnished and glittering, opened and
shut like doors of llauie. The banging
gardens of Bablon, wet Willi the heavy dew,
began to pour, flora starlit flowers and drip
lung leaf, a fracrance for uiuy miles around.
The street's and squares Mere lighted for dance,
and frolic and pi umenade. lhe theaters and
galleries of art inwtec the wealth, and pomp,
ana grandeur of the city to rare entertain
ments. Scenes ot not and wassail wero
mingled in everv street: godlesi mirth, and
outiageoin excess, and splendid wickedness
came to tne King's palace, to do ' their mightiest
deeds of d li Lncs-.
A loyal feast to-night at the king's palace!
Hushing up to tbe gates arc chariots, up
holstered with precious cloths from Dcdan,
and drawn by fire-eyed horses from Togarmah.
that rear and nci-rli in the grasp of the chariot-eer-:
while a thousand lords dismount, and
women. drcss"d in all the splendors of Syrian
emerald, and the color-blending of agate and
lhe cliasteness of coral, and the sombre glory
otTjriau puralc. and princely embroideries,
brought from afar by camels across the desert,
and by ships of Tarshish across the sea.
A X'cast for Ancient Itoyalty.
Open wide the gates, and let the guests como
in. The chamberlains and cup-bearers arc all
ready, liark to the rustle of the robes, and to
the carol of the music! bee the blaze of the
jewel! I. ft the banners. Kill tbo cups. Clap
the cymbals. Mow the trumpets. Let the
night go ny with song, ann dance, and ovation;
and let that KabUouish tongue be palsied that
will not say. "-O. king liclsbazzar. live forever!"
Ah! my iriends. it was not any common ban
quet ti which these great people came. AH
narts of the earth had sent their richest viands
tn that table. Brackets and chandeliers flashed
their light upon tankards or burnished gold.
Fruits, ripe and luscious in baskets of silver,
entwined with leaves, plucked from roy.il con
servatories. Vases, inlaid with emerald, and
ridged with exquisite traceries, filled with nuts
that weie threshed from forests of distant
lands. Wine brought from the royal vais,
foaming in the decanters and bubbling in me
chalice-. Tnfts of cassia and frankincense
wafting their sweetness from wall and table.
Gorgeous banners unfolding in the breeze that
came thiougU the open window, bewitched
with the pertuine of hanging gar-lens. Fount
ains rising up from inclosurcs of ivory, in jets
of crjstal. to fall in clattering rain of diamonds
and pearls. 8iatr.es of mighty men looking
down, from niches lit the wall, upon crowns
and shields brought from subdued empires.
Idols nfwouderful woik, standing on pedestals
of precious stones, Lmbro.derics drooping
about the windows ami wrapping pillars
of cedar, and drilling on floor inlaid with ivory
and agate.
Music, mingling the thrum of harps, and the
clash of cymbals, and the blast of trumpets in
one wateof transport that went rippling along
the wall, and bi entiling aiming the garlands,
a id i-ouung down the coindors, and thrilling
the souls id a thousand banqueters. The sig
nal is given, and the lords and ladies, tne
mightv men and women ot the land, come
around the table, l'our out the wine. Lei
foam and bubble kiss the rim! Hoist every
one his cup. and drink to the sentiment: "O
King ISelsnazzai-, live forever!"' Bcstarred
luad-band and carcanetof royal beauty gleam
to the uplifted chalices, as again, and again,
and again tl.ey air emptied. Away with care
from the palace! Tear royal dignity to tatters!
I'nurom more wine! Give us more lighLwilacr
music, snectcr pcifutnt-! Lord shouts to lord,
capiaiu o-les to captain. Goblets clash; de
canters rattle. There come In the vile son--,
and the diuukeu hiccough, and the slavering
lip, and the guffaw ot idiotic laughter, bursting
lrom the lips of princes. Unshed, reeling, blood
shot; while mingling with it all 1 hear, "Huzza!
huzza! for great Belsliazzarf
The 1 ritins on the Wall.
What is that on the plastering or the wall? Is
ita spirit? Is it a phantom? Is it God? Out
ot the black sleeve of the darkness a linger of
fierv terror trembles tbrough the air and comes
to the wall, circling about a though it would
write, and then, with sharp tip of flame, en
graves on the plastering the doom of the king.
The music stops. The goblet falls from the
nerveless grasp. There is a thrill. There is a
start. There is a thoosand-voiccd shriek of
horror. Let Daniel be brought in to read that
writing. He coinr-g in. He reads it: "Weighed
in the balance and found warning."
Meanwhile the Assyrians, who for two years
had been laying siege to that city, took ad
vantage of that cuiousal and came in. I bear
the leet of the conquerors on the palace stairs.
Massacre rushes in with a thousand gleaming
tames. Death bursts upon the scene; and I
shut the door of that banqueting hall, for I do
not want to look. There is nothing there but
torn banners, and broken wi eaths, and the slu-.li
of upset tankards, and the blood of murdered
women, and the kicked and tumbled carcass ot
a dead king. For in that night wasBelshazzar,
the king of the Chaldeans, s.ain."
I go on to learn that when God writes any
thing on tue wall, a men had better read it as
it is. Damei did not misinterpret or modify
theliandw-iungoii ths wall. I c is all foolish
ness to expect a minister or the gospel to
preach alwajo tilings that the people like, or
the peip.e clioo-p. Young men. what shall 1
preach to ju to-night? .Shall I tell jou of the
dignity of human nature? Shall 1 tell you of
the wot-ders. thai our race has accomplished?
Ol.! no, you t-as; "tell me the message thst
came from God.' I will. If there is auy hand
w riling on the -all. it is this lcson: "Accept of
Christ, and be javed!" I might talk ot a great
many other ihings bat that is the i&ssage. and
so I declare it. Jesus never flatfercU those to
whom he preached. He said in those who did
wrong, and who were offensive in bis sight.
"e gencrauonuf vipers! ye whited sepulchres!
how can je escape the damnation of hell!"
The Opening and tho Close. 4
Another lesson that comes to us; there Is a
great difference between tbe opening of lhe
banquet of sin and its close. Young man, if
jou had lookod in upon the banquet In the first
few honrs yon would hare wished you had been
invited there, and could sit at tbe feast. "Oh!
the grandeur of Belshazzar's fcastT1 you would
have said; but you look in at the close of the
banquet and vonr blood curdles with horror.
ThpKin" nf Turrntf l,a thar nfuhaStliCr DSn-

grpaiis are the music. Sin lias maue iiae-i. -
king in the earth. It has crowned itself. It
has spread a banquet. It invites all the world
to come to it. It has hung in its banqueting
hall the spoils of all kingdoms and the banners
of all nations. It has gathered from all music.
It has strewn from its wealth the tables and tbe
floors and arches. And yet how often is that
banquet broken up; and how horrible is its
end! Ever and anon there is a handwriting on
the wall; A king falls. A great culprit is ar
rested. The knees of wickedness knock to
gether. God's judgment, like an armed host,
breaks in upon tbe banquet; and that night is
Belshazzar, tbe king ot tbe Chaldeans, slain.
HcreUajoung man who says, "I cannot see
why they make such a fuss about the intoxicat
ing cup. Why, it is exhilarating! It mates me
tcelwell. lean talk litter, thiuk better, feel
belter. I cannot see why people have such a
prejudice against it." A few years pass on, and
he wakes no and finds himself in the clutches
of an evil habit which he tries to break, bnt
cannot: and be cries out. "Oh Lord God! help
me I" It seems as though God would not hear
his praj er;" and in an agony of body and sonl
he cries out. "It biteth like a serpent, and it
stingcth like an adder." How bright It was at
the start ! How black it was at tbe last I
Here is a man who begins to read corrupt
novels. "They are so charming," says he; "I
will go out and see for myself whether all these
things are so." He opens the gate of a sinful
life. He goes in. A sinful sprite meets him
with her wand. She waves hor wand, and it is
all enchantment. Why. it seems as if the an
gels of God bad poured out phials of perfume
in the atmosphere.' As he walks on, be finds
the hills becoming more radiant with foliage,
and the ravines more resonant with the falling
water. Oh! what a charming landscape he
sees! But that sinful sprite, with her wand,
meets him again; but now she reverses tho
wand, and all the enchantment is gone. The
cap is lull or poison. The frnit turns to ashes.
AH the leaves of the bower are forked tongues
of hissing serpents. The flowing fountains fall
back in a dead pool, stencuful with corruption.
The luring songs become cuis:sand screams ot
demouiac laughter. Last-spirits gather about
him and feel tor his heart, and beckon him on
with "Hail, brother! Hail, blasted spirit, bail!"
He tries to get out. He comes to the front
door where he entered, and tries to push It
back, but the door turns against him; and iu
the jar of that shutting door he hears these
words: "This night is Belshazzar, tbe king of
the Chaldeans, slain." bin may open bright as
the moriiin?. It ends dark as the night!
Death at the Xtanquet.
I learn further from this subject that Death
sometimes breaks in upon a banquet. Why
did he not go down to the prisons in Babylon?
There were people there that would like to
have died. I suppose there were men and
women in. torture in that city who would have
welcomed death. But heroines to the palace:
and just at the time when the mirth is dashing
to the tiptop pitch. Death breaks In at the ban
quet. We have often seen the same thing il
lustrated. Here is a young man just come
from college. He is kind. He is loving. He
is enthusiastic. Hois eloquent. By one spring
be mav bound to heights toward which many
men have been struggling for years. A pro
fession opens before him. lie is established in
the law. His friends cheer him. Eminent
men encourage him. After awliile you may
sec him standing in the United States Senate,
or moving a popular assemblage by bis elo
quence, as trees are moved in a whirlwind.
Some night he retires early. A fever is on him.
Delirium, like a reckless charioteer, seizes tbe
reins of bis intellect. Father and mother stand
by and ceo the tides or his lite going out to tbe
srreut ocean. The bannuet is coming to an end.
The lights uf thought, and mirth, and eloquenco
arc being extinguished. The garlands are
snatched from tbe brow. The vision is gone.
Death at the banquet!
The Red beawas divided. The Egjptians
tried to cross it. There could bo no danger.
The Israelites had just cone through: where
they had gone, whv not the Egyptians? Ob! it
was such a beautiful walking place! A pave
ment of tinged shells and pearls, and on either
side two great walls of water solid. Thefe can
be no danger. Forward, great host pf the
Egyptians! Clap the cymbals, and blow the
tiuinpets of victory! After them! Wc will
catch tbcm yet, and they shall be destroyed.
But the walls bezin. to tremble. They rock!
They fall! The rnshlng waters! The shriek of
drownirg men! The swimming of tho war
horses in vain for the shore! The strewing of
tbe great host on the bottom of the sea, or
pitched by tbe angry wave on tbe beach a bat
tered, brui:ed and loathsome wreck! Suddenly
destruction came One-half boor before tbey
could not have believed it. Destroyed; and
without remedy.
1 am just setting forth a fact, which yon
have noticed as well as L Ananias comes to
tho apostle. The apostle says: "Did ou sell J
lue lauu torso uiuuu; uc iu, -jcs. at
was a lie. Dead! as quick as that! Sappblra,
his wife mines in. "Did you sell tbe land for
so touch?" "Yes." It was a lie; and quick as
that she was dead! . God's jndgments.are npou
those who de-pise him and defy him. They
come suddenly.
The destroying angel went through Egypt.
Do you suppose that any of the pcop'e knew
that he was coming? Did they bear tbe flap of
his great wing? No! Sol Suddenly, unex
pectedly, he came.
Death Compared to a Sportsman.
Skilled sportsmen do not like to shoot a bird
standing on a sprig near by. If they are
skilled, tbey pride themselves on taking it on
tne wing; and they wait till it starts. Death is
an old sportsman; and he loves to tike men fly
ing under the very sun. He loves to take them
on die wing.
Are there any here who arc enprepared for
tbe eternal world? Arc there are any here who
hav: been living without God. and without
hope? Let me say to you that you had better
accept of the Lord Jesus Christ, lest suddenly
your last chance be gone. The lungs will cease
to breathe; the heart will stop. The time will
come when yoa shall go no more to the office,
or to tbe More, or to the shop. Nothing will be
left bnt Death, and judgment, and Eternity.
Oh! flee to God this hour! If there be one in
this presence who has wandered far away from
Christ, though ho may not have heard tbe call
of the Gospel for many a year, I invite him now
to come and bo saved. Flee from tbv sin! Flee
to the stronghold of the Go-pel! Now is the
accepted time; now is the day of salvation.
Goon night, my young Iriends! May you
have rosy sleep, guarded by Him who never
slumbers! May you awake in the morning
strong and well! But oh! art thou a despiser of
God? Is this thy last night on earth? Shouldest
thou be awakcued in thenight by something,
thou knowest not whit, and there be shadows
floating in the room, and a handwriting on the
wall, and you feel that your last hour is come,
and there bo a fainting at the heart, and a
tremor In tho limb, and a catching of the breath
then thy doom would be but an echo of tbe
words or the text: '"In that night was Belshaz
zar. the King of the Chaldeans, slain."
Hear the invitation of the gospel! There
may be someone in this bou-o to wbom I shall
never speak again, and therefore let it be In the
words of tho go-pel, and not in my own. with
which I close: "Ho. every one that thirstethl
Como ye tn tbe waters. And let him that hath
no money come, buy wine and milk without
money, and without price." 'Come unto Me.
all ye who are weary and heavy laden, and I
will give you rest."

what depressing markets, particularly for light
hides.
Markets are overstocked with tallow, and the
best country is selling here at 4c per pound.
Sheep skins are in -better demand tbe past

Bullish News From All Quarters Cause a

on the Jump Provisions Join iu
the Upward Movement.
CHICAGO Tho grain markets were weak
during the first hour of the session to-day, be
ing dominated by tbo selling of Pardridgein
the wheat pit. Trading was Inactive early, hut
was brisk and bordering upon the exciting in
the latter half of the session. The St. Louis
contingent, wbichxmbraces the Hart Club, of
that city, and Kaufman, tho miller, made largo
profits on the recent decline, are now apparent
ly working the bull side, and there is a numer
ous body of strong bulls in New York who
have been steadily lighting against tho recent
declining tendency of prices. The business is
out of tbe rule for the presenr, and is no longer
any one's market. Wheat at the cioso was
about 2c higher than at the corresponding
time yesterday. Corn gained Jc, oats c and
provisions picked up and closeda little over
yesterday's closing quotations.
The leading futures ranged as follows, as cor

Country Produco-Jobblng Prices.
Demand is'good for strictly fresh eggs and
choice creamery butler. Country butter is
slow and prices are nominal. Cheese is firm
and tendency of markets is upward. Potatoes
are coming in freely, and prices are tending
lower. Supply of apples il light and demand
corresponds. Tropical fruits are little more
expensive than apples, and the latter are slow
and dull as a result. Bananas are scarce and
firm. Poultry supply exceeds demand, and
drift of markets is downward. Produce com
mission men report a quiet trade a'.l along the
line, with markets in favor of the buyer.
