• DR TALKS SERMON •GOOD AND EVIL COME BACK.” (Preached at Tho Hamptons, Long Island.) Text: “It is He that sitteth upon the circle of the eartb.”—lsaiah xL, 23. While yet people thought that the world was t at, an f thousands of years before they found out that it was round, Isaiah, in my text, intimated tho shape of it Goa sitting upon the circle of the earth. The most beau tiful figure in all geometry is the circle. God mode tho universe on the plan of a circle There aro in the natural world straight lines, angles, parallelogromes, diagonals, quad rangles; but those evidently are not God's favorites. Almost everywhoro where you find him geometrizing, you find tho circle dominant, and if not the circle, then the curve, which is a circle that died young. If it had lived long enough it would nave been a fuil orb, a periphery. An ellipse is a circle pres ed only a little too hard at the sides. Giant s Causeway in Ireland shows what God thinks of mathematics. There are over 35,000 columns of rocks—-octagonal, hexagonal, pentagonal. These rocks seem to have been made by rule and by compass. Every artist has bis molding room where he may make fifty shapes, but ho chooses one shape as pre ferable to all the others. I will not say that the Giant’s Causeway was tho world’s mold ing room, but I do sav, out of a great many figures God seems to nave selected the circle i as the best. “It is He that sitteth on the est cle of the earth.’’ The stars in a circle, the moon in a circle, the sun in a circle, the uni verse in a circle uud tho throne of God the centre of that circle. When men build churches, they ought to imitate the idea of the great Architect and put the audience in n circle, knowing that tho tides of emotion roll more easily that way than in straight lines. Six thousand years ago God flung this world out of his right hand: he did not throw it out in a straight line, cut curvilinear, with a leash of love holding it so as to bring it back agaiu. Tho world started from his hand puro and edenic. It has teen rolling on through regions of moral ice and distemper. How long it will roll God only knows; but it will in due tiino make complete circuit, and como back to the pla:e whore it started—the hand of God— pure and edouic. The history of the world goes in a circle. Why is it that th9 shipping in cur day is im proving so rapidly? It is because men are imitating the old model of Noah's Ark. A ship carpenter gives that as his opinion. Al though so much derided by small wits, that ship of Noah’s tiino beat the Etruria and the Germanic, of which we beast so much. Where is the ship on the sea to-day that could outride a aelugo in which tho heavens aud the earth were wrecked, lauding all the . passengers in safety, two of each kind of living croaiures, thousands of species. Po- | mology will go on with its achievements until after many centuries tho world 1 will have plums aud pears equal to I the paradisaical. Tho art of gardening will j grow for centuries, and, after the Downings j and Mitchells of tho world have done their j best, in the far future tho art of gardening will como up to the arborescence of the year one. If the makers of colored glass go on irn proving, they may in some centuries be able to make something equal to tho east window of York Minster, which was built in 1330. We are six centuries behind those art'sts, but the world must keep on toiling until it shall make the complete circuit and come up to the skill of those very men. If the world continues to improve in masonry we shall havo aft*rawhile, perhaps after the advance of centuries, mortar equal to that which I saw in the wall of an exhumed English city, built in the time of the Romans, I,l*oo years ago—that mortar to-day is as good as the day in which it was made,having outlasted tho brick and the stone. I say, after hundreds of years masonry may ad vance to that point. If the world stands long enough, we may havo a city as large as they had in old times, Babylon, five times the size of London. You go into the potteries of England, aud you find them making cups and vases after the stylo of tho cups and vases exhumed from Pompeii. The world is not going back. Oh, no! but it is swinging in a c ircle, and will come back to the styles of pottery known so long ago as the days of Pompeii. The world must keep on progress ing until it makes tho complete cin uit. The curve is in tho right direction. The curve will keep on until it becomes a c ircle. Well, now, my friends, what is true in the material universe is true in God's moral gov ernment aud spiritual arrangement. That is the moaning of Ezekiel's wheel. All com mentators agree in saying that tho wheel means God’s Providence. Rut a wheel is of no use unless it turns, and if it turns it turns around, and if it turns around it moves in a circle. What then ? Are we parts of a great iron machine whirled around whether we will or not, the victims of inexorable fate} No! So far from that, I shall show you that we ourselves start the circle of good or bad actions, and that it will surely come around again to us unless, by divine interven tion, it be hindered. Those bad or good actions may make the circuit of many years; but come back to us they will, as certainly as that God sits on the cir cle of the earth. Jezebel, the worst woman of the Bible. 6le\v Naboth because she wanted his vineyard. While the dogs were eating the body of Naboth. Eiisha, the prophet, put down his compass, and marked a circle from those dogs clear around to the dogs that should eat the body of Jezebel, tho murderess. “Impossible!” tho people said, “that will never happeu.” Who ir; that Hung out of the palace window ? Jezebel. A few hours after they come around, hoping t > bury her. They find only the palms of her hands and the skull. The dogs that devoured Jezebel and the dogs that devoured Naboth ! Oh, what a swift, what an awlul circuit! But it is sometimes the case that this circle sweeps through a teutury, or through many centurios. The world started with a the ocracy for government; that is, God was the President and Emperor of the world. People got tired cf a theo - racy. They said; “We don't want God directly interfering with the affairs of the world; give us a monarchy.” The world had a monarch}'. From a mon archy it is goiug to have a limited mon archy. After a while the limited monarchy will be given up, and the Republican form of government will bo everywhere dominant bre. and recogm ed. Then the world will get tired of the republican form of government, and it w ill have an anarchy, which is no gov ernment at all. And Lien, all nations, find ing out that man is not capable of righteously governing man, will cry out again for the ocracy, and say. “Let God come back and conduct the affairs of the world.” Every step— monarchy, limited monarchy. Repub licanism, anarchy, only different "steps be tween the first theo racy and the last the ocracy, or segments of the great circle of the earth on which God sits. Rut do not become impatient because you cannot see the curve of e vent?, and therefore Conclude that God’s Government is going to breakdown. History tells us that in the making of tho pyramids it took 2,000 men two years to drag one great stoue from the quarry and put it into the pyramids. Well, now, if men, short live I. can afford to work so slowly as that, <annot God,in the building of the eternities,aTordto wait? What though (iod should take 10,00) years to draw a cir cle? Bhall we take our little watch, which we havo to wind up eve’ y night lest it run down, and hold it up beside the clock of eternal age:*? If, according to the Bible, a thousand years are in God's sight as one day. then, according t> tint • aicuintion. the 0,000 years of the world’s existence has l»een only to God as from Monday to Saturday. ijk>t it is often the case that the rebound is quicker and the circle is soon r completed. You resolve that you will do what good you can. In one week you put a word of counsel in the heart of a Sibbatb-scbool child. During that same week you give u letter of introduc tion to a young man struggling in business. i y During the same week yo i make an »-xhorta tion in a prayer meeting. If. isall gone: you will never hear of it, |s*rhaps, you think. A few years after a nmn comes up to you and •ays: “You don’t know me, do you?” You say: “No, I don’t remember ever to have seen you.'* “Why,” be says, “/ was in the Sabbatb-schooi clan over which you were the teacher. One Sunday you invited m« to Christ. I accepted the offer. You see that church with the two towers yonder!’’ “Yes» you say. He fays: “That is where I preach.” Or: “Do you see ttat Gov ernors houso? That is where I live.” One day a man comes to you and fays: “Good morning.” You look at him and say: “Why, you have the advantage* of mo; I cannot pla ’oyou.” He says: “Don’t you remember, thirty years ago, giving a letter of introduc tion to’ n young man—a letter of introduction to a prominent merchant?” “Yes, yes, I do.” Ho says: “I am the mao. That was my first stop toward a fortune; but I have retired from hi: amors now, aud am giving my time to ph-'lanthropies and public interests. Come up to my country place and see me.” Or a man comes to you and says: “I want to in troduce myself to yon. I went into a prayer meeting some years ago. I sat back by the doo*. You arose to make an exhortation. That talk changed tho course of my life, and. if I ever get to heaven, under God, I will owo my salvation to you.” In only* ten, twenty or thirty years, "the circle swept out and swept back again to your own grateful heart. Cut sometimes it is a wider circle and does not return for a great while. I saw a bill of expenses for burning Latimer and Ridley. The bill of expenses says: One load of fir fagots Cartage of four lcad3 of w00d.... 2s. Od. Item, a post b S ’ 12’ Item, two chains JJJ- Item, two staples Item, four laborers & ea. That was cheap fire, considering all the circumstances: but it kindled a light which shone all around the world; and around the martyr snirit: aud out from that burning of lao mcaneec smog a man can <To IS, after some difficulty has been settled, to bring it up again,and God will not be so mean as that. God’s memory is mighty enough to hold all the events of the ages, but there is one thing that is sure to slip his memory, one thing he is sure to forget, and that is pardoned trans gression. How do I know it? 1 will prove it. 4 Their sins and their iniquities will I re member no more.” Come into that state this morning, my dear brother, my dear sister. “Blessed is the one whose trangressions are forgiven.” . , Cut do not make the mistake of thinking that this doctrine of the circle stops with this life; it rolls on through heaven. You might quote in opposition to me what St. John says about the city of heaven. He says it “lieth four square.” That does seem to militate against this idea; but you know there is many a square house that has a family circle fuciiig each other, and in a circle moving, and I can prove that this is so iu regard to heaven. St John says: “I heard a voice of many angels round about tho throne, and tho beasts and the elders.” And, again he says: “There was a rainbow round about the throne.” The two former instances a circle; the last either a circle or a semi circle. The seats facing each other, the angels facing each other, the men facing each other. Heaven an ampitheatre of glory. Circumference of patriarch, and prophet, and apostle. Circumference of Scotch covenant ers, and Theban legion, and Albigonses. Cir cumference of the good of all ages. Periph ery of splendor, unimagined and indescriba ble. A circle 1 A circle! You maltreat an aged parent. You be grudge him the room in your house. You are impatient of his whimsicalities and gar rulity. It makes you mad to hear him tell the same story twice. You give food he cannot masticate. You wish he were away. You wonder if he is going to live forever. Ho will be gone very soon. His step* are shorter and shorter. He is going to stop. But God has an account to settle with you on that subject. After a while your eye will be dim and your gait will halt, and the sound of the grinding will be low, and you will tell the same story twice, and your children will wonder if you aro going to live forever, and wonder if you will never be taken away. They called you “Father” once: now they call you “the cid man.” If you live a few years longer they will call you “the old chap.” What are those rough words with which your children are accosting you ? They are the echo of the very words you used in the car of your old father forty years ago. What is that which you are trying to chew, but find it uurnasticable, and your i jaws ache a* you surrender the attempt! Perhaps it may be tho gristle wbi h you gave to you r father for his breakfast forty years ago. A gentleman passing a!ong the street saw a son dragging his father into the street by tho hair of h.s head. The gentleman,out raged at this brutal conduct, was about to punish the offender, when the old man arose and said: “Don't hurt him; it’s all right; forty years ago this morning I dragged out my father by tho hair of the head.” It is a circle. My father lived into the eighties.and he had a very wide experience, and he said lhat maltreatment of parents was always punished in this world. Other sins may be adjourned to the next world, but maltreat ment of parents is punished in this world. The circle turns quickly, very quickiy. Ob! what a stupendous thought that the good and the evil we sta*t come back to us. Do you know that the judgment day will be only the points at which tho circles join, the good and the bad we have done coming back to us, unless divine intervention hinder —coming back to us welcome of delight or curse of condemnation! Oh! I would like to see Paul, the invalid missionary, at the moment when his influence , ?omes to full orb—his influence rolling out through Antioch, through Cyprus, through Lystra, through Corinth, through Athens, through Asia, through Europe, through America, through the first century, through five centuries, through twenty centuries, through all the succeeding centnries, through Mirth, through heaven, and. at last, the wave if influence having made full circuit strikes his great soul! Cb, then I would like to see him! No one can tell tho wide sweep of the lircloof his influence,'save tho One who is J seated on the circle of the earth. I should ; not wont to seethe countenance of Voltaire : when his influence comes tu lull orb. When , the fatal hemorrbaie seized him at eighty t'tree years of age his influence did net cease. The inoit brilliant man of his century, he had . use 1 all hi* facult es for a amlting Chris tianity; his bal influence w.deuing through J France, widening oil 4 : through Germany, ! widening through all Europe, widenin ' I through America, widening through the 101 j years that have gone by since be diod, widen ; lug through earth, widening through hell, until at last the accumulated influence of his bad life in fierv surge of omnipotent wrath ! will beat against his destroyed spirit, aud at ' that moment it will be enough to make the ; black hair of eternal darkness turn white with the horror. No one can tell how that bad man’s influence girdled the earth, save i the One who is seat’d on the circle of the i earth—the Lord Almighty. “Well, now,” say people in this audience, i “this, iu some respects, is a very glad theory, I and in others a very sad one; we would like to have all the good we have done come back to us, but the thought that all the sins we : have ever committed will come back to us ! fills us with affright.” My brother, I have tc tell you God can break that circle, and will do so at your call, lean bring twenty pas rages of scripture to prove that when God, for Christ's sake, forgives a man, the sins of hi? past lifo never come hack. The wheel may roll on aud roll on, but you can take vour position behind the cross and the wheel strikes tho cross and it is shattered for ever. The sin 3 fly off from tbs circle into tho perpendicular, falling at right angles intc complete oblivion, Forgiven! Forgiven’ Latimer and Ridley rolled the circle, wider and widsr, starting other circles, convolut ing, overrunning, circumscribing, overarch ing all heaven—a circle. But whnfc is true of the good is just as true of the ba l. You utter a slander against your neighbor. It has gone forth from your teeth. It will never come back, you think. You have done the man all the mischief you can. You rejoice to see him You sav: “Didn't I give it to him?” That word has gone out , that slanderous word,on its poison ous and blasted way. You think it will neve. - do you anv harm: but lam watching that word, and I soe it beginning to curve, and it curves around, and it is aiming al your beArt. You had letter dodge it! You cannot dodge it It rolls into your bosom, and after it rolls in a word of an old book, which kays: “With what measure ye mete, it small be measured to you again.” But evenr circumference must have a cen tre, and wfiat is the centre of this heavenly circumference? Christ His all the glory. His all the praise. His all the crowns. All heaven wreathed into a garland round about Him. Takeoff the imperial sandal from Hi? foot, and behold the scar of the spike. Lift the coronet of dominion from His bruw, and see where was the laceration of the briars. Come closer, all heaven. Narrow the circle around His great heart O Christ, the Saviour I O Christ, the man! O Christ, the God! Keep thy throne forever, seated on the circle or the earth, seated on the circle of heaven! “On Christ, the solid rock, I stand : All other ground is shifting sand.” Stonewall Jackson's Flank Attack at Chancellors Yiile. From General O. O. Howard’s article in the Century, we quote as follows: “Somebody’s guns thundered away for a few, short minutes, and then came the fitful rattle of musketry; and before 1 could again get into the saddle there arose the ceaseless roar of the terrible storm. “I sent out my chief of staff. Colonel Asmussen. who was the first officer to mount— ‘The t ring is in front of Devens, go and see if all is in order on the extreme right.’ He instantly tamed and galloped away. I mounted and set off for a promi nent place in rear of Schnrz’s line, so as to change front to the north-west of every brigade south-east of the point of attack, if the attack extended beyond Oeven’s right flank; for it was divined at once that the enemy was now we3t of him. I could see numbers of our men —not the few stragglers that always fly like the chaff at the first breeze* but scores of them—rushing iftd£ the open ing, some with arms and some without, running or falling before they got behind the cover of Dcven’s reserves, and before General Scliurz’s waiting masses could de ploy or charge. The noise and the smoke filled the air with excitement, and to add to it Dieckmann's guns and caissons, with battery men scattered, rolled and tumbled like runaway wagons and carts in a thronged city. The guns and the masses of the right brigade struck the second line of Devens before McLean’s front had given way, aud. quicker than it could be told, with all the fury of the wildest hail-storm,everything, every sort of organization that lay in the path of the mad current of panic-stricken men, had to give way and be broken into frag ments. “My own horse seemed to catch the fury; he sprang, he rose high on his hind legs and fell over, throwing me to the ground. My aide-dc camp, Dessauer, was struck by a shot and killed, and for a few moments I was as helpless as any of the men who were speeding without arms to the rear. But faithful orderlies helped me to remount. “I rode quickly to the reserve batteries. A staff officer of General Hooker, Lieu tenant-Colonel Dickinson, joined me there; my own staff gathered around i me. I was eager to fill the trenches which Barlow would have held. Busch beck’s second line was ordered to change front there. His men kept their ranks, but at first they appeared slow. ‘Will they never get there!’ “Dickinson said: ‘Oh, General, see those men coming from that hill way off to the right, and there’s the enemy after them. Fire, oh, fire at them; you may stop the flight!’ “‘No, Colonel,* I said, ‘I will never fire on my own men !* ” Medical Advance. Each year sees substantial advance in medical science. The last year is no ex ception to this. We give some few points in illustration : The study of bacteriology—the casual relation of microscopic plants to infec tious diseases—has been pursued the world over with increasing interest and conviction of its fundamental truth. In vestigators, however, are not yet agreed that Professor Koch's “comma bacillus” —so called from its resemblance to the comma—is the cause of cholera, though the view is ably defended by others than the professor. That the microbe or germ, to which tubercular consumption is due, has been discovered, has been rendered strongly probable by recent investigations. To 1885 belongs Pasteur's supposed discovery of a protective vaccine against hydrophobia. Should the present year confirm it, it may take its place among the most valuable of the age. Dyspeptics have long known that fat, as a food, was a special trouble to them. It has now been proved that, even in healthy stomachs, it delays digestion. By rendering digestion greatly slower, where it is already slow and weak, the food necessarily ferments and various j hurtful acids are developed. Nitro-giyccrine has been largely recog nized as a valuable remedy in that ter- , riblo disease, angina pectoris, and in other spasmodic affections. The discov erer was^awarded a prize by the French Academy of Medicine. The clinical experience of the year seems to have confirmed osmic acid in its high place as a remedy for neuralgia, and menthol also as an efficient remedy in I many hard forms of this latter disease. Important advance has been made in rendering foods easier of digestion— in fact, in largely predigesting them. The lung cavities have been success- ; fully opened, and experts now stand j ready to perform the operation in cases of simple pulmonary abscesses. The ex ploration,drainage and extirpation of one of the kidneys are now among hopeful operations. Considerable portions of the j intestines have been removed, and the cut j ends brought together; and th* patients ' have made n good recovery. The ab I doraen has been successfully opened in a case of acute peritonitis (inflammation of i the membrane), attended with suppura tion (forming of pus). — Youth'» Compan ion. The Lion and the Insects. A Lion who was Resting in the Sun one day Tacitly permitted a Hornet to Alight on his Nose, but Vigorously Re pulsed a wasp, who sought for the same 1 Privilege. Thereupon the latter ob-; served: “We are both of the same general Species, and I fail to see why you Dis- j | criminate Against me.” “Simply to prove to you that Every j one has the Right to Select the Nuisance he is willing to put up with,” was the reply. Moeal: There is a Difference be- I tween the Hand Organ and th9 Accor deon.— Free Frm . Why the Conductor’s Jaw Fell. One of those smart Alexander* who travel on his cheek and the intbiliiy of the public to change S3O bills for a «Dss of sola, got on a Fennslyvnnra avenge car the other day and tendered the afore said for his fare. Os course the con ductor could not change it and so he got his ride free. Tbit wa3 repeated until the conductor got tired of it. and after the fourth or filth time of its repetition he determined to get even with the fel low. By visiting the toll-house, and by other means unknown, the manipulator of the bell punch managed to scrape up fill. 1)5 in pennies. Placing these in a little bucket he quietly awaited the appearance cf his victim, having posted the driver and some other intimate friends who hap pened to be on board. When the unsus pecting nun with the plethoric pocket book pit? in an appearance and promptly produced the ‘ twenty,” with man? apol ogies, the conductor pocketed the bill and produced his little bucket, and amid the grins of the spectators presented it co his customer. The young man looked pretty cheap, and after feeling the heft of the bucket thoughtfully get off the car and disappeared around a corner. Then the conductor took the bill from hi 3 pocket aad proceeded to fold it up nicely s > that it would fit into a CDEiven ient corner of his pocket book. Some thing in the appearance of the bil 1 caught his eye, and, as he examined it a little closer, his jaw dropped about a foot. The bill was a counterfeit. The young man had also been laying for the con ductor. ComwrrcM Mr. J.
