Are the feet of tho dancers who were at tho ball of the Duchess ot Kiehniond at Brussels the ni j;!it before Waterloo all still? All still. Are all tin ears that heard the fjuns of Hun ker Hill all deaf? All dertf. Are the eyes that saw the coronation of (Jjorgo III. all eiosi 1? All ciosd. Oblivion! A hundred years from i;--"V ther will not be a beinar on this earth that knew we ever lived. In some old family record a des-endant studying up the arc -stral lin may ?p?ll out our name, and from the nearly faded ink, with j?re.at effort, find that some person of our name was born somewhere between 1810 and is:0. but they will know no more about us than wo knov iibout tho color of a child's eves born l ist nij?ht in a village in Pata gonia. Tell me something about your ;?reat gran dfather. What were his features? What did ho do? What year was he born? What vear did he die? And your great-grandmother. Will you describe tho style of the net she wore, anl how did she and your great-grandfather et on in each other's companionship? Was it March weather or June? Oblivion ! That mountain surge rolls over everything. Even the pyramids are dying. Not ti day passes but there is chiseled off a chip of that granite. The sea is triumphing over the land, and what is goin ? on at Coney Island is going on all around t'uo world, an i t e continents are crumbling into the waves, nnd while this is transpiring on the outside of the world the hot chisel of the eternal tiro is digging under the foundation of tho earth and cutting its way out to war I the surface. It surprises mo to hear people say they do not think tho world will finally be burned up, when all scientists will tell you that it has for ages been on fire. Why, there is only a crust between us and the furnaces inside raging to get out. Oblivion! The world itself will roll into it as easily ns a schoolboy's india rubber ball rolls down a hill, an I when our world kojs it i so interlocked by the law of gravitation with other worlds that they win go, too. an i so far from having our memory perpetuated by a monument ot AOerueen granue in nu world there is no world in fight of our strongest telescope that will be a sure pedi ment for any slab of commemoration of the fact that we ever lived or diod at all. Our earth is struck with death. The axletrea of the constellations will break aud let down tho population of other worlds. tenar, lunar solar mortality. Oblivion! It can swallow and will swallow whole galaxies of worlds as easily as a crocodile takes down a frog. Yet oblivion does not remove or swallow anvthin" that had better not bo removed or (swallowed. The old monster is welcome to his meal This world would long ago have been ovcrcrowde I if it ha I not be mi for tin merciful removal of Nations anl genera tions. What if all the books had lived th it were ever wrttten and printed and pub lished? The libraries would by their im mensitv have obstructed intelligence) anl made ali research impossible. Tho fatal epidemic of books was a merciful epidemic. M;rnv of the State and National libraries to-dav" are only morgues in which dead books are waitin for some one to coaie an I recogui.o them. What if all the people that had been born were etill alive? We would have been elbowed by our ancestors of ten centuries ago, and people who ought to have said their lat word :$003 years ngo would snarl at us, saying. "What are you doing here?" Tnere would have been no room to turn around. Some of the past generations of mankind were not worth re membering. The ttrst useful thing that many people did was to die, tlieir cradle a misfortune, and their grave a boon. Tnis worf 1 was hardly a comfortable place to live in before the middle of the last cen tury. S. many things nave come into th! world that were not fit to stay in. we onght to begla I they were put out. The waters ol Tjcthe. the fountain of forget fulness, are a healthful draft. The history we have of the world in ages past is always one sided and cannot be depended on. II istory is fiction illustrated by a few straggling facts. In all the Pantheon the weakest goddess is Clio, the go bless of history, and instead ot being represented by sculptors as holding a scroll might better bo representel as limping on crutches, rnrrhrtii ntstory is tne saving of a few things out of more things lost. The immor tality that comes froai pomp of obsequies, or granite shaft, or building nmiel fitter its founder, or pag'-) of recognition in some en cyclopedia is at immortality unworthy of one s ambition, for it will cease and H no dm mortaTHr at all. Oblivion! A hrJndrel year; But whilo t recognize this universal submergence of things eaf.hly who wants to be forgotten? Not One Of us. Absent for a few we. ks or months from home, it cheers us to know that we are re-memb-red there. It is a phrase we have all pronounced, "I hope you missed mo." Meet ing some friends from whom we have been parted nlany year.-, we inquire, "Did you ever aee me before?" and they say, -'Yes," anl call ut by name, and we fe"i ft delight ful sensation thrilling through their hand into our han 1, an 1 running up frOoi elbow to shoulder, and then parting, the one eur- rept of delight asceti ling to the brow and the other descending to the foot( moving rouu l an 1 round in concentric; circles until '.very narvo an I mu5cl" and capacity of body and mind an I soul is permeated with de light. A row lays ago, visiting the place of my boyhood, I met one whom I had not su ;iu"e we playe I together at tea years of age. m l I had peculiar pleasure irt puzzling him i little .as to who I wis. and I cart hardly de scribe the sensation as after awhile lie mum ble 1 out: "Let mi see. Yes, yod are D) Witt." We all like to be remembered. Now, I have to tell you that this oblivion of Which I have spoken has its defeats, and that there is no more reason why we should riot bo distinctly and vividly and gloriously remembered five hundred million billion trillion quadrillion quintillion years from aow than that we should be remenibere I six weeks. I am going to tell you how thetbin ? Jan be done and will be done. We may btldd this "everlasting re-nem-Dranee," as my text styles it, into the super nal existence of thosi to whom wo do kin i-ne.ss-s in tnis worio. iou must remember that this inlirm and treacherous faculty which we now call memory is in the future state to be complete and perfect. "Ever lasting remembrance!" Nothing will sbp the stout grip of that celestial facultv. Did you heip a widow pay her rent? Did you Ilnd for that man released from prison a place to get, honest work? Did you pickup a child fallen on the curbstone, and by a stick of candy put in his hand stop tho hurt on his scratched knee? Did you .assure a business man, swamped by the stringency of tho mon"y market, that times would after awhile be betterv Did you lead a Magdalen of the street into a midnight mission, where the Lord said to her : "Neither do I condemn thee ; go and sin no more?" Did you tell a man, clear dis couraged in his waywardness and hopeless and plotting suicide, that for him was near by a laver in which he might wash, and a coronet of eternal blessedness ho might wear? What are epitaphs in graveyards, what arg oulogiums in presence of those whose breath is in their nostrils, what are unrea l biogra phies in the alcoves of city library, com pared with the imperishable records you have made in the illumined memories of those to whom you did such kindnesses? Forget them? They cannot forget them. Notwithstanding all their might and splen dor, there are some things the glorified of heaven cannot do, an 1 this is one of them. They cannot forget an earthly kindness done. They haye no cutlass to part that cable. They have no strength to hurl into oblivion that benefaction. Has Paul forgotten the inhabitants of Malta, who extended the island hospitality when he and cMiors with him had felt, added lo a shipwreck, the drenching rain and the sharp cold? H is the victim of the highway man on tho road to Jericho forgotten the Good Samaritan with a medicament of oil and wine and a free ride to tho hostelry? Have the English soldiers who went up to Oo 1 from the Crimean battlefields forgotten Florence Nightingale? Through all eternity wi'.l the Northern and Southern soldiers forgot the Northern and Southern women who administered to the dying boys in blue and gray after tho awful fights in Tennessee and Pennsylvania and Virginia and Georgia, which turned every house and barn and shed into a hospital, and incarnadined the Susquehanna, nnd tho James, and the Chattahoochee, and the Sa vannah with brave blood V The kindnesses you do to others will stand as long in the ap preciation of others as the gates of heaven will stand, as the "House of Many Mansions"' wi'.l stand, as long as the throne of Go I will stand Another defeat of oblivion will be found in the character of those whom wo rescue, uplift or save. Character is eternal. Sup pose by a right influence we aid iu trans tonning a bad man into a goo I man. a dol orous man into a happy man, a disheartened man into a courageous man every stroke ol that work done will be immortalized. There may n-ver be so much .as one line in a news paper regarding it, or no mortal tongue may ever whisper it into human ear, but waere everthat soul shall go your work upon it shall go, wherever that soul rises your work upon it shall rise, aud so long as that soul will Inst your work on it will last. Do you suppose there will ever come such an idiotic lapse in the history of that soul in heaven that it shall forget that you invited him to Christ ; that you, by prayer or gospel word, turne I him round from the wrong way to the right way? No su :!i insanity will over smito a heavenly citizen. Ir is not half as well on earth known that Christopher Wren planned and built St. Taul's as it will be known in all heaven that you were tho in strumentality of building a temple for the sky. We teach a Sabbath class, or put a Chris tian tract in the hand of a patserby, or tes tify for Christ in a prayer meeting, or preach a sermon, nnd go home discouraged, as though nothing had been accomplished, when we had been character building with a ma terial that no frost or earthquake or rolling of the centuries can damage or briny" dowis. There is no sublimer art in the wond thai architecture. With pencil and rule nd imm p ass the architect sits down alone aud in si lence, and evolves from his own brain a ca thedral, or a National capitol, or a massive home before he leaves that table, an I then he goes out and unrolls his plans, and calls car penters and masons and artisans of all sorts to execute his design, and when it is finished he walks around the vast structure an 1 sees the completion of the work with high satis- faetion, and on a stone at some corner of the building the architect's name may be chiseled. But tho storms do their work, and time, that takes down everything, will yet take down that structure until there shall not be one ,toue left upon another. But there is a soul in heaven. Through your instrumentality it was put ther- Un der Go is grace you are the architect of its eternal happiness. Y'our name is written, not on one corner of its nature, but inwrought into its every fiber and energy. Will tho storms of winter wash out tho story ot what you have wrought upon that spiritual struc ture? No. There are no storms in that land, and there is no winter. Will time wear out the inscription which shows your fidelity? No. Time is past, and it is an everlasting now. Built into tho foundation of that imper ishable structure, built into its pillars, bunt into its capstone, is your name either tho name you hnvo on earth or the name by which celestials shall call you. I know the Bible says in on? plaee that Go 1 is a jealous Go 1. but that refers to the work of those who worship so.no other go I. A true father is not jealous of his ehiM. With what glee you show the picture your child penciled, or a toy ship your child hewed out, or recite the noble deed your ililM accomplished! And Go' never was lealous of a Joshua, never was jealous of a r.anl. never was jealous of a Frances Haver gal, never was jealous of a man or woman who tried to heal wounds and wipe away tears and lift burdens and save souls, aud while all is of grace, and your seP abnegating utterance will be. "Not unto us, not unto us. but unto Thy name, O Lord, give glory !' you shall always feel a heavenly satisfaction in every good thing you did on earth, and if ieono elasni. borne irom beneath, should break through the gates of heaven and efface one record of your earthly fidelity, methinks Christ would take one of the nails of His own cross and write somewhere on the crys tal, or the amethyst, or the jacinth, or the chrsoprHSus, your name and just under it the inscription of my text, "The righteous shall be held in everlasting remembrance." Oh, this character building ! You and I are every moment busy in that tremendous occupation. You are making me better or worse, and I am making you better or worse. and we Sfiall through all eternity bear tbo mark Of thi'3 benediction or blasting. W Others havotiie thrones ot heaven those who have more mightily wrought for God and tho truth but it will be heaven enough for you and me if ever and anon we met some radiant soul on the boulevards of the great city who shall say . "You hdted me one. You encouraged me When I was iri earthly struggle. I did not know that I would have reached thishining place had it not been for yod." And We will laugh with heavenly g!e and say : "Ha! ha! Do yod really remember that taik? Do yotl remem ber that warning? Do you remember that Christian invitation? What a memory you have ! Why, that must have been down there in Brooklyn or Nw Orleans at lenst ten thousand million years ago.' And the an swer will le, "Yes, it was a3 long as that, but I remember it as Well as though it were yesterday," Oh, this character building! The structure lasting independent of passing centuries, in dependent of crumbling mausoleums, in' peudent Of the whole planetary system. Aye, If the material universe. Which seems all bound together like one piece of machinery, should some day meet with an accident that should send worlds crashing into each other like telescoped railway trains, and all the wheels of constellations and galaxies should stop, and down into one chasm of immensity all the suns and moon? and stars should tumble like the midnight express at Ashta bula, that would not touch us and would not hitrt God, for God is a spirit, and character and memory are Immortal, and over that grave of a wrecked material universe might truthfully be written, "The righteous shall be held in everlasting remembrance," O, Time, we defy thee! O, Death, we stamp thee in the dust of thine own sepul chers ! O, Eternity, roll on till the last star has stopped rotating, and the last sun is ex tinguished on the sapphire pathway, and the last moon has illumined the last night, and as many years have passed as all tho scribes that ever took pen could describe by as many figures as they could write in all the cetitUrfeS of all time, but thou shall have no power to tifTafe from any soul in glory the memory of anything" wo have done to bring it to God and heaven ! There is another and a more complete tie feat for oblivion, and that is in the heart of God himself. You have seen a sailor roll rir, nts sleeve and show you his arm tattooed with the figure of a favorite sliip perhaps the first one in which ho ever sailed. You have seen a soldier roll up his sleeve and show you his arm tattooed with the figure of a fortress which he was garrisoned, or tho face of a great general under whom ho fought. Yoit have seen many a hand tat tooed with the face of a loved ono before or after marriage. This tattooing is almost as old as the world. It is some colored liquid punctured into the flesh so indelibly that nothing can Wash it out. It may have been there fifty years, but when the man goes into his coffin that pic ture will go with him on hand or arm. Now, God Sf ys that he has tattooed us upon his hands. There can be no other meaning in the forty-ninth charter of Isaiah, where God says. "Behold, I have graven thee on the palms of my hands !" It was as much as to say . "I cannot open My hand to help, but I think of yon. I can not spread abroad My hand3 to bless, but I think of you. Wherever I go up and down the heavens I take these two pictures of vou with Me. They are so inwrought into My being that I cannot lose them. As long as My hands last the memory of you will last. Not on the back of My hands, as though to announce you to others, but on tho palms of My hands for Myself to look at and study and love. Not on the palm of one hand alone, but on the palms of both hands, for while I am looking upon one hand and think ing of you, I must have the other hand free to protect you. free to strike back your enemy, free to lift if you fall. Palms of Mv hands indelibly tattooed! Ami though I hold the winds in My first no cyclone shall uproot tho inscription of 3-our namo and your race, and though I hold tho ocean in the hollow of My hand its billowing shall not wdsh out the record of My remembrance. Behold, I have graven thee on the palm? of My hands.' " What joy, what honor can there be com parable to that of being remembered by the mightiest and kindest and loveliest and ten derost and most affectionate being in tho universe? Think of it, to hold an everlasting place in the heart of God. The heart of God ! The most beautiful palace in tho universe. Let the archangel build some palace as grand as that if he can. Let him "nimble up all the stars of yesternight and to-morrow night and put them together as mosaics for such a palace floor. Let him take all the sun rises and sunsets of all tho days and tho. auroras of all the nights and hang them as upholstery at its windows. Let him take all the rivers, and all the lakes, and all the oceans, and toss them into the fountains of this naf ace court. Let him take all the gold of all the hilis and hang it in its chandeliers, and all the pearls of all the seas, and all the diamonds of all the fields, and with them arch the doorways of that palace, and then invite into it all the glories that Esther ever saw at a Persian banquet, or Daniel ever walked among in Babylonian castles, or Joseph ever witnessed iu Pharaoh's thronerooni. and then yourself enter this castle of arehangelie construction, and see how poor a palace it is compared with the greater palace that some of you have already found in the heart of a loving and pardoning God. and into which all the music, and all the prayers, and all the sermonic considera tions of this day tire trying to introduce you through the blood of the slain lamb. Oh, where is oblivion now? From the dark and overshadowing word that it seemed when I began, it has become something which no man or woman or child who loves the Lord need ever fear. Oblivion defeated. Oblivion dea 1. Oblivion sepulcliere 1. But I must not be so hard on that devouring monster, tor into its grave go ail our sins when the Lord for Christ's sake has forgiven them. Just blow a resurrection trumpet over them when once oblivion has sn ipped them down. Not one of them rises. Blow again. Not a stir amid all the pardoned in iquities ot a lifetime. Bow again. Not one or them moves In the deep grave, trenches. But to this powerless resurrection trumpet a voice responds, half human, half divine, and it must be pari man an I p irt Go I. say ing. "Theirsins and their iniquities will I re member no more." Tii.ank God for this blesse I oblivion! bo vou see I did not invite you down into a cel lar, but upon a throne ; not into the grave yard to which all materialism isdetmel. but into a garden all abloom with everlasting remembrance. The frown of my first text has become the kiss of the seconl texr. An nihilation has become coronatiou. The wring ing han is of a great agony havo become the clapping hands of a great joy. Tho requiem with which we began has neeome the grand march with which we close. The te.ir of sadness that rolled down our ehecc his struck the lip on which sits tho laughter oi eternal triumph. Chasing the 'Whale by Stentn. Private dispatehes received in New Bed ford. Mass., confirming the reports of the un-, precedented catch of the whaling fleet in tho Arctic are cheering to the local whaling mer chants, who had beg n to fear that tho sea son would prove a failure. The report upto October 9 was to the effect that out of forty three vessels in the Arctic, eighteen were clean. Despite the fact that the season has leen a phenomenal one. the sailing vessels have done nothing at all eomp iratlveiy. the steamers having had all the luck. When the little tteamer Mary D. Hume took thirty whales two years ago. the news could scarce ly le believed. Now the report that the steamer Narwhal has taken sixty-two whales is simply wonderful.
