Bi Harrison. of the New Hampshire I'orestry Commission in an address to the people of that state offers to speak wherever a meet- ing can be arranged on the subject of the waste of New Hampshire's natural resources, by which he means the de- struction of its forests. He hopes by arousing the people to the danger of losing eventually their ‘summer busi- ness” fo evert h.pressure on the Legis: lature that will result in the passage of laws for the protection and preser- vation of the woodlands, ¢It is time,” he declares, ‘for some advance in the methods ot discussion of forestry and related subjects. The course hitherto generally followed in this country by writers and speakers on tliese topics is inadequate for our situation here. We shall have to get down from our rlietorical stilts pretty soon and face the facts in tie case, or we shall. not have much grand and beantiful scenery to tall about.” Mr. Harrison “is not actuated, maintains the New York Post,” merely by sentimental motives, as the lnmbermen might tern his love for: the scenic beau- ties of New Hampshire. He also points out that with the devastation of the forests the watercourses must dwindle and dry up and the manufac toring interests of the State suffer in. calculable loss. Me. Harrison's ap- peal is reinforced by a speech of Dr. - William Everett of Massachusetts on the same subject at the Hingham Fair, in which he said: “We claim to be fax ahead of Earope in the arts that con- ‘gern the glory of a nation. Yet we are far behind some of the least pro- gressive of the European nations in the noble art of forestry, the art whick watches the woodlands like sheep oi cattle, almost like children—thinning out, planting, preserving, fencing— using under reasonble restrictions, the natural increase for every one of the million uses to which luxary or ne: cessity cau turn the tree, yct preserv. ing the patriarchs of the forest, their sturdy children, their sapling grand. children and descendants, so that without crowding, without gaps, with: out untimely decay, without prema~ ture and self-obstructive growth, a “noble country can point with pride on hillside and plain, by rivers and in _ parks, to its maguificent and primeval \HE MODLKN GOLDEN CALF ep mn. DR. TALMAGE DENOUNCES —— it THE WORSHIP OF THE IDOL OF OLE TIMES. IN- HUMAN SACRIFICFS ON THE GORGEOUS ALTER OF MAMMON, a HE subject of dis- course cliosen by Rev. a\ Dr. Talmage of 5,2) Brooklyn, N. Y.. for UNI + his first sermon after 9 \ national election, was one peculiarly appro: riate 10 the money- a) io spirit of the 5 times, It was “The Golden Calf,” thetext selected being Exo- dus xxxii, 20. **And he took the calf which they had made and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder and strewed it upon the water and made the children of Israel drink of it.” People will have a god of some kind, and they prefer one of their own making. Here come the Israelites, breaking off their pol: for in those times they were masculine as well as feminine decorations. Where did timey get these beautiful gold earrings, com- ing up as they did from the desert? Oh they borrowed them of the Egyptians when they left Egypt. : Put aside this curtain and you. see th golden calf of modern idolatry. It is not like other idols, made out of stocks or stone. but 1t has an ear so sensitive that it ean hear the whispers on Wall street and Third street and State street, and the, footfalls in the Bank of England, and the flutter of a Frenchman's heart on the Bourse: It has an eye so keen that it can see the rust on the farm of Michigan wheat and the insect in the Maryland peach-orchard, and the trampled grain under the hoof of theRussian war charger. It is so mighty that it swings any way it will the world’s shipping. It has its foot on all the merchantmen and the steamers. It started’ the Awerican Civil War, and under God stopped it. This golden calf of the text has its right front foot in New York, its left front foot in Chicago, its 1ight back foot in Charleston, its le t back foot 1n New Orleans. and when it shakes itself it shakes the world. But every god must have its temple, and the golden calf of the text is no exception. Its temple is vaster than St. Paul's. Stand- ing at the head of the temple, as the presid: ing deity, are the hoofs and shoulders and eyed and ears and nostrils of the calf of goia. Further; every god must not only have its temple, but its altar of (sacrifice... and this golden calf of the text is no exception. Its altar isnot made out of stone -as other altars, but out of counting room desks and fire-proof safes, and it is a broad, a long, a higl tar. The victims sacrificed on it are innumerable. What does this god care about the groans and strugzles of the vic. tims before it? With cold, metallic eye it looks on and vet lets them suffer. Oh! heaven and earth. what an altar! what a sacrifice of body, mind and soul! The phys- ical health of a great multitude is flung on this sacrificial altar. They cannot sleep, and they take chloral and morphine and in- toxicants, . Their sierves gone, their digestion gone, their brain gone, they die. Tbe clergyman comes in and reads the funeral services: **Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.” Mistake. They did not ‘‘diein the Lord;" the golden calf kicked them! The troubie is, when men sacrifice them- selves on the altar suggested in the text they not onlv sacrifice themselves, but they sacrifice their families.” If a man by an ill course is determined to go to perdition, IT suppose you will have to let him go; but he puts his wife and chi dren into an equipage that isthe amazement of the avenues, and the driver lashes the horses into twe whirl: winds, and tlie spokes fla~h in the sun. and the golden headgear of the harness gleams, until Black Calamity takes the bits of the horses and stops them. Still the degrading worship goes on, and the devotees kneel and kiss the dust’ and cro-s themselves with the bloo 1 of theirown sacrifice, The music rolls on under the arches; it is madé of clinking silver and clinking gold and the rattling specie of the banks and brokers’ shops and the voices of all the exchanges. The soprano of the wor- ship is carried by the timid voices of men who have just begun to speculate; while the deep bass rolls out from those who for ten years of iniquity have been doubly damned. Chorus of voices rejoicing over what they have made. Chorus of voices wailing over what they have lost. This temple of which I speak standsopen day and night, and there is the glittering god with his four feet on broken hearts and there is the smoking altar of sacrifice, new victims every mo- ment on it and there are the kneeling devo- tees; and the doxology of the yorship rolls on, while death stands with mouldy and skeleton arm beating time for the chorus— More! more! more! But my text suggests that this worship must be broken up, asx the behavoir of Moses in my next text indicated. So, my hearers, you may depend npon it ‘that: God will burn and he will grind to pieces the golden calf of modern idolatry, and he will compel the people in their agony to drink it. If not before. it will be so on the last day. I know not where the fire will begin, but it will be a hot blaze. Al the Govern- ment securities of the United States and Great Britain will curl up in the first blast. What then will become of your golden calf? Who then so'poor as to worship it? Melted, or between the upper and the nether mill- stone of falling mountains ground to pow: der. Dagon down. Moloch nown. Jug. gernaut down. Golden calf down. But, my friends, every day is a day of judgment, and God is all the time grinding to pieces the golden calf. Merchants of rooklyn and New York and London, what is the characteristic of the time in which we live? ‘‘Bad,” yousay. Professional men, what is the characteristic of the time in which we live? ‘‘Bad,” you say. Though 1 should pe in a minority of one, I venture the opinion that these are the best times we have had. for the reason that God is teach- ing the world, as never before, that old- fashioned honesty is the only thing that will stand. ‘We have learned as never before that for- geries will not pay; that the spending of $50,000 on connry seats and a palatial city residence, when thereare only $30,000 in- come, will not pay; that the appropriation of trust funds to our own private speculation will not pay. We had a great national tumor, in the shape of fictitious prosperity. We called 1t navionai enlargement; instead of calling it an enlargement we might better have called it a swelling. It has been a tumor and God is cutting it out—has cut it out, and the nation will get wall and will come back to the principles of our fathers and grandfathers when twice three made Bix instead of 60, and when the apples at the bottom of the barrel were just as good as the apples at the top of the barrel, and a silk handkerchief was not half cotton, and a man who wore a $5 coat paid for"wad more honored than a man who wore a $50 coat not paid for. The golden calf of our day, like the one of the text, is very apt to be made out of bor- rowed gold. great many housekeepers, not paying for the articles they get, borrow woodlands. of the grocer and the baker and the butcher den earrings, the men as weil as the women, borrows of the wholesale dealer. After a whise the capitalizt money and he rushes upon the wholesale dealer, and the who'esale dealer wants his money and he rushes upon the retailer. and the retailer wants his money and he rushes upon the consumer and we all go down to- gether. It is this temptation to borrow, and borrow, that keeps the people everlasiingly praying to the golden calf for Lelp, and just at the minute they expect help (the calf treads on them. The judements of tod, like the Moses in my text. will rush in’ and break up this worshit ; and 1 say. let the work go on until every man shail learn to speak the truth with his neighbor, a®d those who make engagements shall feel themselves bound to keep them, and shen a man who will not repent of his business iniquity, but goes on wishing to satiate his :annibal appetite by devouring ‘widow's souses, shall, ty the law of the land, be soropelled to exchange his mansion for Sing ding. Let the Golden calf perisn! But my friends, if we have made this world our god, when we come to die we will f we have made this world oir Gad, when we die we will see our idol ground to pieces »y our people, and we will lave to drink it n btter regrets for the wasted opportuni- ies of a lifetime. ; 5 PROMINENT PEOPLE; Tre Pop?'s jubiles will occur in 1892, fear TONS first boo was published in WaITBLAW REID says he will retira from puolic lire, QUEEN VICTORIA has altozethar taken 447 azricultural prizss. : : TrE Duke of Marlborouzh’s life was in- suraai for 1,009,000, QueEx Victoria will spend the winter months near Pisa, in ltaly.
