The Brooklyn Revival.
The New York Sun, in refurring to the
religious awakening now in progress in
Brooklyu, N. Y., gives this discription
of a service at Talrnage's Church.
•'Philip Phillips sang a hymn and son.
Before the sweetness of these sounds
had melted away, and before the audience
had stirred from its attitude of absorbed
interest. Dr. Talmagc arose and with
great rapidity, and in a voice which, in
contrast with the sounds just foregoing,
was in the nature of a great shock, de
clared that the gathering of the great mul
titude he contemplated was 110 surprise to
him. There was a crying need of the Gospel
at this time—the same Gospel that Paul
preached till the knees of Felix knocked
together. He was glad to see the multi
tude (Dr. Talmage, in his rapid utterance
always pronounces the word "mulitude")
which had come to be whipped into an
idea of the iminence of death and |the
day of judgment. Referring then briefly
to the assassination of the czar Alexander
11., Dr. Talmage concluded by calling
upon Mr. Stratton, "who entered the
kingdom of God last June," to address
the congregation.
Mr. Stratton, a young man, stepped to
the open space in front of the platform,
and in rapid, emphatic manner called
upon his hearers to come to the joy which
he experienced through an acceptance of
Christ. He pointed out the seat he had
occupied when grace fell upon him, and
contrasted his new and his old life, de
claring that he formerly was a "heedless,
rushing, liarumscarum young fellow, who
used to read the Police Gazette.
Dr. Talmage rose again and called upon
those who wished to be prayed for to
rise. A number rose, women and men.
"Another and another, and another."
enumerated the preacher, as he swept the
congregation with his eyes. He turned
slowly as he looked, and when he had
completed the semicircle he turned about
rapidly and began again, stretching out
his arm and pointing, and exclaiming:
"How solemn is the place! 'Tisthe gate
of heaven! Another, and another, and
another."
Mr. Stratton prayed. He called upon
the Lord to "trouble" his hearers, and
demanded of them whether they did not
see "the wounds in His feet and hands
and the lauce thrust in His side."
Dr. Talmage asked those to rise who
wished prayers for family or friends.
There was a whirring sound in the taber
nacle, and prohably 200 persons rose.
"A great multitude!" exclaimed the
preacher.
Persons who occupied the front row of
seats were turned out and Dr. Tannage
invited those who wished consolation to
occupy them. Ten persons came forward
and then two more.
"Sing 'Bring in the sheep' " said Dr
Talmage; and brothers and sisters bel
longing to the church sat down by the
new converts and talked to them as the
singing was performed.
"Come up here, Brother Scovill. We
want some praise from you," said the
preacher when the soug was concluded.
A gray-haired brother responded. This
closed the services for the evening.
The Brooklyn preachers who are labor
ing to bring about a general revival iu
that city, met again in the afternoon in
the chapel of the First Reformed Church.
The presiding brother was the Rev. Jus
tin D. Fulton, and one of the chief speak
ers was the Rev. Geo. F. Pentecost, with
whom it is said Mr. Fulton does *ot ex
change words privately. Their parlimeut
ary exchange of salutations in the after
noon was interesting to the other breth
ren. Dr. Fulton entertained his broth
er's mot ions with a chilling manner, and
Mr. Pentecost spoke to the chairman
without looking at him. Among the
ministers attending the meeting were
several others who do not speak to each
other, including Dr. Van Dyke and Dr.
Talmage. There were many fervent
prayers and appeals for concord among
the ministers to secure a revival through- !
out the city. After many prayers and
exhortations the ministers decided, in ad
dition to the prayer meeting to be held
from 1 ]). m. to "> p. m. in the First Bap
tist church in Pierrepont street in the af- j
teruoon, to have daily prayer meetings j
from t to 5 :,'SO o'clock p. m. in the same. j
place, begining on Wednesday. These
meetings are intended to catch business
men coming from New York. Among
those attending the meetings was the
Rev. Miss Anna Oliver, the girl pastor of
the Willougliby avenue M. E. church.
She came in alone, and in passing out
was greeted by Mr. Pentecost,

FEW" FACTS
in regard to the
| White
Sewing
Machine.
It is an acknowledged fact that the
White Sewing Machine now stands pre
eminent among first-class machines, for
its simplicity and light-running qualities.
It is a mechanical fact that the White
Sewing Machine is made from the best
material and of excellent workmanship,
and all its wearing parts are adjustable,
so that lost motion can be "taken up" in
an instant.
It is an undisputed fact that the dura
bility of the White Sewing Machine is
sustained by a written warranty for live
years.
It is a progressive fact that the White
i embodies the mpst practical and useful
i improvements of other sewing machines,
I together with advantages peculiarly its
own.
It is a money-making fact that the
White is the easiest-selling selling ma
chine In the market, and therefore all
wide-awake dealers make it their specialty.
It is a gratifying fact that the White
gives universal satisfaction, and that it b
steadily and rapidly increasing in public
favor.
CAUTION.
Do not be imposed upon by agents and parties
wlu) are interested in the purchase and sale of other
machines. It has become a common trick for un
scrupulous competitors to get a White machine and
put it in had order so that they might prejudice pur
chasers againstit and in favor of their own machines.
To guard against such contemptible trickery, we
advise all intending purchasers to correspond with
us direct, and we will take pleasure in giving them
the of a regular authorized dealer for the
"White" rn their county, or we win offer to soil
them a machine direct at special prices, and guaran
tee satisfaction in every respect.
