Attend to it Npw j f any suffering people drag themselves about Jthtailingr strength, feeling that they are ' adilv sinking into the grave, when by using Sorter's Tonic they would find a cu recom mencing with the first dose, and vitality and SrCDgth surely coming back to them. I am 63 years old; have been sick nearly all mV life, and ought to know something about medicine by this time. I have used Parker's ronic freely for more than a year, and consid er it the best remedy I have ever known. In tact I now find no other medicine necessary. For weakness, debility, rheumatism, and that stressing all-goneness and pain from which i suffered so long. It has no equal.

Six Thousand Voices Sine the Oneninir Hymn The Legions of Christ Will Cap ture Every Stronghold of Sin More Churches and Myriads of Worshipers. Brooklyn- dot. 17 tional singing at the Tabernacle this morn ing was led by Professor Browne, organist, and Professdr Ali, cornet precentor. Six thousand voices joined iu, singing the opening J HU1V.U Medina; The morning light is breaking, The darkness disappears. Vast numbers of people feould not cret inside tho building. The multitudes of such ner- i sons on ordinary Sabbaths, mornincr and night, are constantly increasing. The Rev. T. DeWit Taigo, D. D., took for his subject "The Victo," and for his text, Zechariah, viii, 5: "AfJcTnhe streets of the city shall bo full of boys'" and girls play ing in the streets thereof." He said: Glimpse of our cities redeemed, j Now boys and girls who play in the streets J- run such risks that mulitudes of them end in rum. But in the time sixken of our cities will be so moral that lads and lasses shall be as safe in the public thoroughfare as m the nursery. For punose of rousing the people to the work to be dQiie I have preached some ser mons about the dark shadows of the city. Tnlrit. nmT urintinrr rro for t.hft most rrfc i - x m i - i in our day are busy in discussing the condi tion of the cities at this time; but would it not be healthfully encouraging to all Chris tian workers, and to all who are toiling to make the world better, if we should this morning, for a little while, look forward to the time when our cities be revolutionized by tho gospel of the Son of God, and all the darkne&s of sin and trouble and crime and suffering shall be gone fronf the sky. Every man has pride in the city of bis nativity or residence, if it be a city distin guished for any dignity or prowess. Caesar boasted of his native Rome, Virgil of Mantua, Lyourgus of Sparta, Demosthenes of Athens, Archimedes of Syracuse and Paul of Tarsus. I should have suspicion of base heartedness in a man who had no especial interest in the city of his birth or residence no exhilaration at the evidence of its prosperity, or its artistic embellishments, or its scientific advance ment. I have noticed that a man never likes a city where he has not behaved well! Swartout did hot like New York, nor did Parkman like Boston, and people who have a free ride in the prison van never like that city that fur nishes the vehicle. When I And Argos and Rhodes and Smyrna trying to prove them selves the birthplace of Homer, I conclude right away that Homer behaved well. He liked them and they liked him. We must not war on laudable city pride, or, with the idea of building ourselves up, at any time try to pull others down. Boston must continue to point to its Faneuil hall and to its Common and to its superior educational advantages. Philadelphia must continue to point to its In dependence hall and its Mint and its Girard college. If I should find a man coming from any city, having no pride in that City, that city having been the place of his nativity, or now being the place of his residence, I would feel like asking him right away: "What mean thing have you been doing there? What outrageous thing have you been guilty of that you do not like the place?' New York is a goodly city. It is on both sides the river, the East river only the main arterv of its ereat throbbing life. We or mip oViil.lrn will live to see two or three bridges spanning that river, and more and more, as the years go, by, we will be one; so when I say in my sermon New York, I mean well on 2,000,000 population, and everything from Snuvten Duvvel creek to Gowanus. That which helps one city will help the other; that which blasts one city will blast the other. Sin is a giant, and when it comes to the Hudson or the East river it steps across it as easily as you step across a figure in a carpet. God's angel of blessing hasjtwo wings, and one wing hovers over that city and the other wing hovers over this city. In infancy our metropolis was put down hv thA banks of the Hudson. It was as feeble as Mo es in the ark of bullrushes by the isnio n1 like Miriam, there our fathers stood and watched it. The royal spirit of American commerce came down to bathe. She took it up in her arms and it waxed fnreian shiDS brought silver and gold to its feet, and it has stretched itself up into a great metropolis, looking up to ine mountains and off upon the sea, the mightiest miprrrv in American civilization. Every. city is influenced by the character of the men who founded it. Romulus impressed his life upon Rome. The pilgrim fathers will vpla-x- their crasn from New England William Penn left a legacy of fair dealing and integrity to Philadelphia, and you can now, any day, on the streets of that city, see TiU enstoms. his manners, his morals, his hat, hi wife's bonnet and his meeting house. So i-Ua wilninlors fonndinsr New York, left thoir imnression on all the following genera- j-- tions. What southern thoroughfare was ever smit ten by pestilence, and our physicians did not throw themselves on the sacriiice ? What foreign nation was ever struck with famine, and our shijis did not put out laden with ffs i What national i struggle, and our citizens did not poir their blood into the trenches ? What street or uamascus, or ney voiit. or Madras has not resounded with the step of our missionaries ? WTiat gallery of ort. a ml our nainters have not hung in it their pic tures ? What department of science or literature, and our scholars have not maoe to it contributions ? 1 not talk to vou of our public schools, where the children of the cordwainer and the mechanic and the glassbldVer sit side by side with: the favored sons of millionaires and merrhjint nriiices. Nor need I tell you of the asylums for the insaneton these islands, where those who cut themselves among the tombs forth i-lothed in their risrht mind. Nor need I tell you of the asylums for the blind, the deaf, and the dumb, and the orphans, the widows, the outcasts, i thank God for the Dlace of our residence, il there are a thousand thinss that ought to be corrected, and many wrongs that ought to be overthrown, while! thank God for the past, I look forward this morning to a glorious future. 1 think we ougnt ana i tnk it for in-anted that vou are all interested in this c-reat work of evangelizing the cities nd KAviner the world we ought to toil with th Rimlisrht in our faces. We are not flght- iserable Bull Run of defeat We dm o?i on r wav to final victory. We are not .fallowing the rider on the black horse, lead ing us down to death and darkness and doom, but the rider on the white horse with the moon under his feet and the stars of heaven for his tiara. Hail, conaueror. hail! I know there are sorrows, and there are sins, and there are sufferings all around about us. but as in some bitter, cold winter aay, when we are threshing our arms around us to keep our thumbs from freezing, we think of the warm spring day that will after a while come, or in the dark winter night we look up and see the northern lights, the windows oi heaven ffluminated by some great victory, just so we look up from the night of suffering and sorrow and wretchedness in our cities, and we see a light streaming through from the other side and we know we are on the way to morning, more than that, on the way to Ma morning without clouds." f want vou to understand, all you who are toilinsr for Christ, that the castles of sin are all going to be " captured. The" victory for Christ in these ereat towns is going to be so complete that no a man on earth,", or an anerel in heaven or a devil in hell will dispute it. How do 1 1 know? I know just as cer tainly as God lives and that this is holy truth. The old Bible is full of it If the nation is to be saved, of course all the cities are to be saved. It makes a great difference with you and with mo whether we are- toiling on toward a defeat or toiling on toward a vic tory.' ' . Now, in this municipal elevation of which I speak, I have to remark there will be greater financial prosperity than our cities have ever seen. Some people seem to have a morbid idea of the milleninm, and they think when the better time comes to our cities and the world, people will give up their time to psalm singing and tho relating of then re ligious experience, and as all social life will be purified there will be no hilarity, and as all business will be purified -there will be no enterprise. There is no ground for such an absurd anticipation. In the time of which I speak, where now ono fortune is made there will be 100 fortunes made. Wo all know business prosperity depends upon confidence between man and man. Now, when that time comes of which I speak, and all double dealing, all dishonesty and all fraud are gone out of commercial circles, thorough confi dence will be established, and there will be better business done, ahd. larger fortunes gathered, and mightier successes achieved. The great business disasters of this country have come from the work of godless specula- rs and infamous stock gamblers. The great foe to business in New York and Brooklyn is crime. When' the right shall have hurled back the wrong, and shall have purified the commercial code, and shall have thundered down fraudulent establishments, and shall have put into tho hands of honest men the keys of business blessed time for the bargain makers. I am not talking an abstraction, I am not making a guess. I am telling you God's eternal truth. In that day in which I speak taxes will be a mere nothing. Now, our business men are taxed for everything. City taxes, county taxes, state taxes, United States taxes, stamp taxes, license taxes, manufacturing taxes taxes, taxes, taxes 1 Our business men have to make a small fortune every year to pay their taxes. What fastens on our great in dustries this awful load? Crime, individual and official. We have to pay the board of tho villains who are incarcerated in our prisons. We have to take care of the orphans of those who plunged into their graves through beastly indulgence. We have to support the municipal governments, which are vast and expensive just in proportion as the criminal proclivities are vast and tre mendous. Who supports the almshouses and police stations and all tho machinery of mu nicipal government? The taxpayers.' And I tell you Republicans and you Demo crats that if you do not let down the taxes and let the ix?ople up, we will form a new party anti-excessive taxation, anti-imm, anti monopoly, anti-abomination and you who have been fattening on the public spoils and reckless of the public virtue shall not have so much as the wages of a street sweeper. But in the glorious time of which I speak grievous taxation will all have ceased. There will be no need of supporting criminals; there will be no criminals. Virtue will have taken the place of vice. There will be no orphan asylums, for parents will be able to leave a competency to their children. There will be no voting of large sums of moneys for some municipal improvement, which moneys, be fore they get to the improvement, drop into the pockets of those who voted them. No oyer and terminer kept up at vast expense to the people. No impaneling of juries to try theft, and arson, and murder, and slander, and blackmail. Better factories, grander architecture, line equipage, larger fortunes, richer opulence, better churches. In that better time, also, coming to these cities the church of Christ will be more numerous, and they will be larger,and they will be more devoted to the churches of Jesus Christ, and they will accomplish greater in fluences for good. Now, it is often the case that churches are envious of each other, and denominations collide with each other, and even ministers of Christ sometimes forget the bond of brotherhood. But in the time of which I speak, while there will be just as many differences of opinion as there are now, there will be no acerbity, no hypercritieism, no exclusiveness. In our great cities the churches are not to day, large encuge to hold more than a fourth of the population. The churches that are built comparatively few of them are fully occupied. The average attendance in the churches of the United Spates to-day is not 400. Now, in the glorious time of which I speak there are going to be vast churches, and they are going to be all thronged with worshipers. O, what rousing songs they will sing! O, what earnest sermons they will preach ! O, what fervent prayers they will offer 1 Now, in our time, what is called a fashionable church is a place where a few people, having attended very carefully to their toilet, come and sit down they do not want to be crowded, they like a whole seat to themselves and then, if they have any time left from thinking of their store and from ex amining the style of the hat in front of them, they sit and listen to a sermon warranted to hit io man's sins, and listen to music which is rendered by a choir warranted to sing tunes that nobody knows! And then after an hour and a half of indolent yawning they go homo refreshed. Every man feels better after he has had a sleep. In many of the churches of Christ in our day the music is simply a mocker. I have not a cultivated ear, nor a cultivated voice, yet no man can do my singing for me. I have nothing to say against artistic music. The $2 or So I pay to hear any of the great queens of song is a good investment. But when the jjeople assemble in religious convo cation, and the hymn is read, and the angels of God step from their throne to catch the music on their wings, do. not let us drive them away by our indifference. I have preached in churches where vast sums of money were employed to keep up their music, and it was as exquisite as any heard on earth; but I thought at the same time, for all matters practical, I would prefer the hearty, out breaking song of a backwoods Methodist camp meeting. Let one of. these starveling fancy songs sung in church get up before the throne of God. How would it look standing amid the great doxologies of the redeemed. Let the finest operatic air that ever went up from the church of Christ get many hours the start; it will be caught and passed, by the hosanna of the Sabbath school children. I know a church wherj the choir did all the singing, save one Christian man,; who, through per severance of the saints, went right on, and afterward a committee y was appointed to wait on him and ask him if he would not please choir? to stop singing, as he bothered tin Let those refuse to sing Who never knew our God; But children of the Heavenly King Should speak their joys abroad. "Praise ye the Lord ; let .everything with breath praise the Lord.w In the glorious time coming in our cities, and in the world, hosanna will urat hosanna and hallelujah, hallelujah. In that time, also, of which I speak, all the haunts of iniquity and crime and squalor will be cleansed and will be illuminated. How is it to be done ? You say perhaps by one influ ence. Perhaps I say by another. I will tell you what is my idea, and I know I am right in it The gospel of the Son of God is the only agency that will ever accomplish this. ' Mr. Ecsler, of England, had a theory that if the natural forces of wind and tide and sunshine and wave were rightly applied, and rightly'developed, it would make this whole earth a paradise. In a book of great genius, and which rushed from edition to edition he he said: "Fellow men I promise to show the means of creating a ! paradise within ten years, , where everything desirable for human : life may be had by every man in superabundance without labor and without paywhere the whole face of nature shall be changed into the most beauti ful farms, and man may live in the most magnificent palaces, in all imaginable refine ments of luxury, and in the . most .delightful gardens where he "may accomplish without labor in one year more than hitherto could be done in thousands of years, and may level a continent, : sink valleys, create lakes, drain lakes and swamps, and intersect the land everywhere with beautiful canals, and roads for transporting hemrf loads of many thou sand tons, and for traveling a thousand miles in twenty-f our hours. "From the houses to be built will be af forded the most cultured views to be fancied. From the galleries, from the roof, and from the turrets may be seen gardens as far as the eye can see, full of fruits and flowers, ar ranged in the most beautiful order, with walks, colonnades, aqueducts, canals, ponds,1 plains, amphitheatres, terraces, fountains. sculptured works, pavilions, gondolas, places of popular amusement to tire the eye and fancy. All this to be done by urging the water, the wind, and the sunshine to their full development." He goes oa'and gives plates of the machinery by which this work is to be done, and he says he only needs at the start a company in which the shares shall be $20 each, and $100,000 or $200,000 shall be raised just to make a speci men community, and then this being formed the world will see' its practicability, and very soon $2,000,000 or $3,000,000 can be obtained, and in ten years tbo whole earth will be em paradised ! ; The plan is not so preposterous as some I have heard of. But I will take no stock in that company. I do not believe that it will ever be done in that way, by any mechanical force or by any machinery that the human mind can put into play. It is to be done by the gospel of the Son of God, the omnipotent machinery of love and grace, and pardon and salvation. That is to emparadise the nations. Archi medes destroyed a fleet of ships coming up the harbor. You know how he did it? He lifted a great sunglass, history tells us, and when the fleet of ships cameup the harbor of Syracuse he brought to bear this sunglass and he conveyed the sun's rays upon those ships. Now, the sails are wings of fire, the masts fall, the vessels sink. O ! my friends, by the sunglass of the gospel converging the rays of the sun of righteousness upon the sins, the wickedness of the world, we will make them blaze and expire. In that day of which I speak, do you be lieve there will be any midnight carousal? Will there be any kicking off from the marble steps of shivering mendicants? Will there be any unwashed, unfed, uncombed children? Will there be any blasphemies in the street? Will there be any inebriates stag gering past? No. No wine stores. No lager beer saloons. No distilleries where they make the three Xs. No bloodshot eye. No bloated cheek. ' No instruments of ruin and destruction. No fist-pounded forehead. The grandchildren of that woman who goes down the street with a curse, stoned by the boys that follow her, will be the reformers and philanthropists, and the Christian men and the honest merchants of New York and Brooklyn. Then what municipal governments, too, we will have in all the cities! Somo cities are worse than others, but in many of our cities you just walk down by the city halls and look in at some of the rooms occupied by poli ticians, and see to what a sensual, loathsome ignorant, besotted crew city politics is often abandoned. Or they stand around the city hall picking their teeth, waiting for some emoluments of crumbs to fall to their feet, waiting all day lonsr and waiting all night long. Who are those wretched women taken up for drunkenness and carried up to the courts, and put in prison, of course. What will you do with the grogshops that made them drink ? Nothing. Who are those prisoners in jail ? One of them stole a pair of shoes. That boy boy stole a dollar. This girl snatched a purse. All of them crimes damaging society less than twenty or thirty dollars. But what will you do with the gambler who last night robbed the young man of a thousand dollars? Nothing. What shall lie done with that one who breaks through and destroys the purity of a Christian home, and with an adroitness and perfidy that beats the strategy of hell flings a shrinking, shrieking soul into a bottomless perdition? Nothing. What will you do with those who fleece that young man, getting him to purloin large sums of money from his employer tho young man who came to an officer of my church and told the story and frantically asked what he might do? Nothing. Ah! we do well to punish small crimes, but I have sometimes thought it would be better in some of our cities, if the officials would only turn out from the jails the petty criminals, the little of fenders, ten dollar desperadoes, and put in their places some of the monsters of iniquity who drive their roan span through the streets so swiftly that honest men have to leap to get out of the way of being run over. Oh, the damnable schemes that professed Chris tian men will sometimes engage in until God puts the finger of retribution into the collar of their robe of hypocrisy and rips it clear to the bottom! But all these wrongs are going to be right ed. I expect to live to see the day. I think I hear in tho distance the rumbling of the king's chariot. Not always in the minority is the church of God going to be; or are good men going to be. The streets are going to be filled with regenerated populations. Three hundred and sixty bells rang in Moscow when one prince was married; but when righteous ness and peace kiss each other m all the earth ten thousand times ten thousand bells shall strike the jubilee. Poverty enriched ; hunger fed; crime purified; ignorance enlightened; all the cities saved. Is not this a cause worth working in? Oh, you think sometimes it does not amount to much ! You toil on in your different spheres, sometimes with great dis couragement. People have no faith and say: "It does not amount to anything: you might as well auit that." Why, when Moses stretched his hand over the Red sea, it did not seem to mean anything especially. Peo ple came out, I suppose, and said: ''Aha!" Some of them found out what he wanted to do. He wanted the sea parted. It did not amount to anything, this stretching out of his hand over tho sea! But after a while the wind blew all night from the east, and the the waters were gathered into a glittering palisade on either side, and the billows reared as God pulled back on their crystal bits! Wheel into line, O, Israel! march, march! Pearls crash under feet Flyin; spray gathers into rainbow arch of victory for the conquerors to march under. Shout of hosts on the beach answering the shout of hosts amid sea. And when the last line of the Israelites reach the beach, the cymbals clap and the shields clang, and the waters rush over the pursuers, and the 6 wif .V fingered winds on the white keys of the foam play the grand march of Israel delivered and the awful dirge of Egyptian overthrow, So you and I go forth, and all the people of God go forth, and they stretch forth their hands over the sea, the boiling sea of - crime and I sin and wretched ness. "It don't amount r to anything," people say. Don't it? God's winds of help will after a while begin to blow. A path will be cleared for the army of Christian philan thropists. The path will be lined with the treasures of Christian beneficence, and we will be greeted to the other beach by the clap ping of all heaven's cymbals, while those who pursued us and derided us and tried to de stroy us will go down under the sea, and all that will be left of them will be cast high and dry upon the beach, the splintered wheel of a chariot, or thrust out from the foam, the breathless nostril of a riderless charger.
