Rev. Dr. absence from his liras. 1
occupancy of the Brooklyn Tabernacle
Church compels the omission of his sermon
this week. In lieu thereof we give extract*
from sermons of prominent, metropolitan
ministers.
The Value of Humility
The Tabernacle pulpit was occupied by
Dr. Doolittle, who lias been for the last
twenty years professor of logic and meta
physics in Hutgers College, New Brunswick,
K J. The preacher road for his toxt
Mark ix., JtV—"lf any man desire
to be first, the same must be willing
to be the last of all, and tho servant of all."
After eome preliminary remarks explanato
ry of tho apps rent contradiction involved in
the text, and showing it to be a characteris
tic specimen of tho tea.•'lting or the Master,
Dr. Doolittle proceeded to analyse tho char
acter set forth iu the passage of Scripture,
and to indicate its roust it ueut elements. In
tr.e flrsl place such a character implied hu
mility-such humility ns involved n con
sciousness of duty to God and to our fellow
men, a consciousness of i tit perfections and a
tendency toward a lofty ideal.
Such a character as that described by the
Great Teacher in tho text implied, secondly,
self-mastery. To be such as Christ charac
terised a man must have complc;e command
of huwelf. A man might have many ot tho
elements of greatness, but w ithout self-corn
maud he was really wea c. Caw nr, Cicero,
Napoleon were poor specimens of humanity
wrhe.i compare! with Pit. Foul. In the days
of his exile and humiliation what imbecili
ties catue from the pen and from tho lips of
him who could by liis word* of fire or of soft
persuasion sway at wi l the Senate and peo
ple of Rome: Aud what a pitiful object of
spiteful imbecility was Napoleon at Bt. He
lena:
Such a character, thirdly, must, be pos
sessed of aud by love. In love, as in our ever
present atmosphere, he must live and move
aud have his being. Without love—love to
God and love to man—there could bo no such
thing as true moral greatness. Never was
the talleu Napoleon so worthy of himself as
when he said: "Alexander, Umar and my
sell—we founded empires and built up great
states, we founded them aud reared them by
force, Christ fouu icd and built His etnpifo
by love. His empire will endure wheu all
others have passed away.”
W oman's Sphere in the Church.
At All Soul's Protestant. Episcopal Church
the Rev. R. Heber New ton preachi d the first
«l an Advent course of sermons on "Woman
in the Church, the Family. Society and the
State.” He said in part: "Victor Hugo
said: 'Man has be m the problem of the
eighteenth century.' Woman is the prob
lem of the nineteenth century. The woman,*
movement is the endeavor to win equal
ity before the bondage of custom, ac
cess to the opportunities of self-support,
intellectual education, the just right of
person and proj erty. Our century is to in
troduce woman to a power never known be
fore. As runs an Ancient mystic saying:
•The reigu of mau is at hand.' The tra
ditional man-thought, of woman has been
thoroughly superficial. No w onder then that
Rousseau should say. ‘The reign of woraau
is the degradation of man.’ Tho deeper
thought ha< found iu womauhoed a secret
diviner than that bodied in manhood. The
creation of woman is not complete, but it
shall be complete in tho time which is at
hand.
"Let mo then speak to you in this Adven
tide, when we are thinking of how tho old
erder changes, yielding place to new, of the
dangers involved in the growing influences
of woman in the Church, tho family, society
aud the States and of tho benefits that may
he expected to issue from this grow.ng influ
ence. Woman, far representing excess
ively the emotional nature, has tended to
make worship the expression of sentiment
not sufficiently vitalised by thought, which
has degenerated into sentimentality. Our
hymn* show this influence. There are plenty
of hymns adapted to the effeminate feeling ot
'Safe in the Arms of Jesus,' but how lew
are pitched to the lofty aspiration ol
Samuel Johnsons ‘Life of Ages Richlv
Poured The tender language of the heart
finds ample utterance, but the valiant desires
of the mind find ecant voice m our hymnal.
True Astheticism in worship gives us a bric
a-brac religion, wherein colors and t unes are
of more importance than the weightier mat
ters of the law. If tho grow th of woman's
influence were to heighten the effeminacy of
worship, we might- well deplore the coming
of the day of woman. But the growth of
that influence will accompany the growth of
woman herself, and when the woman whom
God is creating stands forth in developed
mind, she will lift our worship to a nobior
key.
"In the infancy of the race man ueeds tho
pnpa or Popo to guide him in the wav of
peace there are plenty of children of n
larger growth who still need a ‘father. * Rut
rarely we ought all to have learned by this
time to walk ourselves. Man, having first
won freedom and self-development, bns first
karoed this lessen, while woman still too
eommonlv leans upon the arm of the spirit
ual nur*o Women are still found on their
knees before an eternal author.tv. faring
outward for the light of duty. They keep
alive the priest and crowd ths confessional
whkh men bace deserted
"It tt not a reproach to woman that it Is so,
teeing the influences which have been at
work these ages upon her. Tb<» danger of
this influence of woman in the church is ob
vious. It is the danger which our own church
it so sensibly experiencing, the prolongation
of this lower stage of bpiritual culture be
yond the time Providence has set for it in the
curricuium of spiritual education.
Woman herself surfers in this survival of
an outrageous system, fihe misses her free
dom in Christ Je us. Men are alienated from
the churches which represent to them a
childish type of character-culture. The
clergy are endangered in this role of tho
father confessor. It is too great a temptation
•o impose on them. Even Protestant pastors
know how delicate is such a pastoral relatiou
sh p. If women will have toufessors, let
them ask for a woman as asso mte pastor.
Religion itself suffers from this sort
of feminine influence. The priest has
had his day, but dees not
know it. He stauds in the nay of the
Christ that is to b\ as his Jewish ancestor
stood ia the way of Jews. Is the reign of
woman lo perpetuate this danger? Surely
not, siuce in winuing her throno woman i6to
win her true self. The coming wo nan will
dismiss her confessor, and will find her
priest within her own soul. An emancipa
ted and educated womanhood will pronouuca
the deliverance of ecciesissticism.”
The Saviour Present with His People.
At the New Jerusalem Church, in East
Thirty-fifth street, the Rev. H, S. Seward
preached on "The Capture of Ai, ’ as related
eighth chapter of tho book of .hshiiA.
A.ter stating that the taking possession of
tbs promised land represented the entrance
of she spiritual man upon the enjoyment ot
tus inheritance of prare and joy in the Lord,
the preacher showed that though this wm
not accomplished without combat, it was ac
complish* d with comparative case, because
in the strength of the Almighty.
# u!’ "••***!• tho sophistries and
raise maxims by which the irreligious man

rapture and destruction of the « ity the erodi

regenerating man. To succeed in this pur

sm* The "accursed thing ’ which Achan
J°°J rrom the spoil of Jericho and hid in his
tent must be discovered arid deitr >yed.
Not until fh«s in done <an we hear
u» lairds words, "Fear not,
neither be dismayed: see I have
given into thine hand Ai and her peo
tle.” But, in the second place, we must not
e over-confident. We must muster all our
forces in order to overcome evil and enter
upon our inheritance. We must take ‘‘all
the men of war” with us—put on the whole
armor of (Jod. Not only this; we must use
a wise discretion and "lay an ambush for the
city behind it.” To "lay an ambush,” when
spoken of the sophistries of the carnal mind,
is to disregard their specious reasonings and
estimate their real nature. The intellectual
faculties aro before—in the forehead; the
emotional powers behind—at the base of the
brain. What is before signifies what is in
tellectual and what is behind the voluntary
principle. To examine anything iu front is
t-o look at the reason? that are put forward
in its defence. To ' lay an ambush” against
it behind is to inspect the secret motives from
which it spriugs. It is to go behind the fal
lacious reasonings of the natural man and
probe the intents and purposes of the heart.
f i his ia the only way we can ever hope to cir
cumvent and overcome the subtleties by
which tho sinner excuses his sinful
ness. Again, Joshua represented the Lord;
his hand, power; and the spear in
his hand the power of truth combatting. Hit
stretching out the spear, therefore, repre
senting the divine omnipotence of truth
against the subterfuges of tho natural mind
whenever wo look to the Lord and eudeavof
to go in His strength. Aud it is evident that
the success of every goed cause is dependent
upon the continued exertion of the divine
power, because it is said: "Joshua drew not
nis hand back, wherewith he stretched oul
the spear, until ho had utterly destroyed at
the inhabitants of Ai.”
In closing tho speaker drew an encouraging
lesson from tho sulvoet. A? the Lord was
present with the t'liifciren of Israel in theii
efforts to drive out the inhabitants of thi
land, so He is present with us in our efforts
to remove the false notions that reside in
our minds; and os the Children of Israel al
ways succeeded when they put their faith in
the Lord and observed His directions, so we
will succeed if we will look to Him and
obey His command neuts. Only one difficulty
stands in the way—the difficulty of makings
complete surrender to the Lord, the entire
consecration of all our powers to his service.
Having made that we need fear nothing.
Tiie Lord will be with us as He was with
Moses and Joshua. He will g > bofore us and
drive out our enemies. He will give us au
assured rest and quiet habitations. It will
not bo necessary for us to go out after our
enemies—to attempt groat, things, or to ac
complish great results. All that will l*
needed will bo faith and following—trust in
the Ixm! and obedience to His command
ments.
The practical question is: Have we made
this dedication to tho Lord? If we have not,
we cannot expect td succeed even in our ef
forts to do good, because they are our own
efforts. If wo have, we cannot fail, because
we are attempting the Lord’s work and not
our own; and he who is really endeavoring
tr do tho Lord’s will must receive tho influx
of tho Lord’s power. All we have to do in
that case is to claim our inheritance and it
will be ours. "Behold, the Lord thy God
hath set the land before thee; go up and pos
sess it, as the Lord God of thy fa’.hers hath
said unto thee; fear not, neither be dis
mayed. ”
Grandeur of Paul’s Greetings.
The Rev. William T. Kabine, of the Re
formed Episcopal Church iu Madison ave
nue: "If a man should attempt to rival Paul
iu heaping up words s os blessings he would
fall far balow him. Bit merely piling up
words of comfort and of ble-sing is not all
nor oven the greatest of Paul’s motives in so
doing. It. is an attempt to overnurden
the human language—an attompt to de
scribe tho indescribable, to express tho
inexpressible ; the measure of the goodness of
God, the naming of a ray of which burdens
the frail human tongue till it gro»n*. Water
cannot be drawn from an empty well. But
so narrow an outlet as tho humau speech
gives us but a little idea of the joy that was
in Paul s soul. There is nothing harsh 'n his
greetings. You know by them that he is
ready to take you by the hand as a brother.
The * pagan Roman wrote: ‘Lysias unto
the most eminent Claudius sends greeting,’
but who compares that with Paul’s
'Grace and peace be to you from God tho
Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ who
gave himself for our sins, that ho de
liver us from this present evil world.accord
ing to the will of Goil our Father; to whom
be glory forever. Amen.’ The whole Gos-
I»1 is in this greeting. We can tell where a
river gathers its waters—from a marsh, a
lake, or from some eternal snow-capped
mountain. So, looking at this, we can seethe
-.ourre whence itcomes: ‘Not of man, neither
by man, but by lb) will of God’ shines out
through this greeting. Hoar Luther: 'True
Christiau religion is that which heginneth,
not at the highest, ns other religions, but at
the lowo-t. It will have us to climb up
Jacob’s ladder, whereon God leaneth, the
feet of which touch the very earth, hard by
the head of Ja ob.’ So Paul’s greetings,
while «*o ning very near to us. always point
to God.”
Tlir Plan of Salvation a Perfect One.
The Rev. A. W. Halsey, of the Spring
Street Presbyterian Church, took for hi*
theme: "The Lrinibslain from the founda
tion of the world,” sayiug in part: "It is
human to err. Blunder* are natural. We
pardon a blunder in a boy that, would be
inexcusable iu a man. Wo overlook
the mistake? of an apprentice. We
condemn the mar-ter workman. We
eau even overlook the mistakes of Moses.
Rut God is charged with a blunder in mak
ing man. When a builder has ty prop up a
building beeaus? he failed to lay a good
foundation w« call him a bungler, bnt can
we say that God madaraun and then had to
introduce; the prop of salvation to keep this
human structure from falling? Did God fad
ton-.akea gooi piece of work at tho start
and then try to remedy matters by propping
lup the shaky edifice? If this is so, then
salvation is an after thought. God has made
a mistake and thon the Gospel seeks to
strengthen matters. If this is true, then the
Gospel is only a pio'e of new cloth to patch
an old garment Is the Gospel a mere device
to save the reputation of the Creator? Such
a representation is unworthy of the idea of
God. Such a representation is unscrip
tural.
"Salvation is not an after thought. Fal
votion con say of sin what Christ said of
Abraham, before sin was—l am. Christ was
s;ain before tho foundation of the world. The
cron was set by tho throne of God before it
was borne tj Golgotha. Tho Garden of Geth
seinane was before Eden. The kingdom was
prepared from the foundation of the world.
The scheme of salvation may not meet
with your approval, but it Is consistent.
There is no blunder. It is as the Archi
tect designed. There has been no change. The
Lamb was slain before the mountains were
brought forth or the earth formed. The Bible
is a unit' The Old Testament and the New
know of only one plan: ‘The Lamb slain
from the foundation of the world.’ The cru
cified Christ is tho starting point, as it is the
consummation of redemption. Jems Chris*
was a Saviour before the star shone ou '<e
manger-cradle or tho angels sang on the
plains of Bethlehem. .
“I Lelieve that the I amh s’ain is the power
that make* for righteo June s all over the
world. Because the poor hentroa ran no*
spell C-h-r-i n-t as I spdl it, this is no reason
for saying that tho Christ, the Lamb slain,
may uot lie his Saviour. Redemption is
wider than we think it It wa< before the
world, so F believe it t« for the world. tat us
lieware to?t we limit the sweep of this Gos
pel, which was before time and which is to
stretch into eternity. I yield lo no one In
my adherence to the orthodox view of
salvation. I believe that the Bible as
well ns experienra tea-bos that God
hates sin with a jtertect hatred. The modern
Idea of a God who is all love and pitv. and
who will clear th? guilty without the in
fliction of punishment, is ba on a false
morality as wed a? a false theology. God al

long before, Unplaced* life-b ;at there, so that
if sin aboundedjrrac&did much inoreabounc.
Blund-r! No. Thors was no blunder. Sin
was part of the plan and fallen man re

fallen man. ” .
A Wisconsin Cranberry Marsh.
Mr. John Hancock, Jr., son of Col.
John Hancock, of Wisconsin, whose
home is at the head of Biff City Point
Marsh, one of the largest cranberry and
lumber regions of the northwest, was
met in New York recently and was asked
for some particulars, for the Mail and
Expreu , of the life in the region of his
home. Mr. Hancock said that the marsh,
a great portion of which has been turned
into cranberry fields, is altogother about
forty miles long and varies in width from
three to six and seven miles. It is situa
ted about in the centre of tho State. His
own cranberry bog is at the upper end
and is three miles square. A good yield
of the berries upon it is two hundred
bushels an acre. The method which ho
has adopted for raising the berries is a
new one, although different from that
followed East or even generally in the
West, and has been found remarkably
successful. The marsh is first mowed,
then “scalped” or cleaned of grass roots
down to the peat. Then old cranberry
vines are scattered broadcast over it and
these are rolled. Then the field is flood
ed. This is the work of the first year.
The second yoar the field takes care of
itself and the third year the vines begin
to bear lightly. Each year succeeding
the yield grows larger until the tenth,
when the vines arc in their prime. Un
der the old system it used to take fifteen
years before a good crop was assured.
“As to picking the berries," he added,
“there are two ways—by hand and by
rake. With us now the latter has been
generally adopted; as hand labor is too
expensive. Tho rake is u peculiar im
plement, made especially for the purpose
aud called a scoop-rake. It has steel
teeth, and catches the berries ancl holds
them. One man, on the average, can
gather ten bushels a day with a rake,
aud some as many as forty bushels. Rak
ers are paid $1.50 per day and board.
But the berries must bo handled consid
erably more than this before they arc
ready for market. Were they to be at
once put into barrels they would sweat
and spoil. First, they are taken to a
storehouse, where they are cured, that
is, sweated and dried. This takes two
weeks. Then they are put into a mill,
like a fanning mill, and cleaned. Then
they are ready to be put in barrels for
the market.”
Portraits Made With a Hot Poker.
Poker sketching is an untaught art.
Perhaps few persons know what a poker
sketch is. Seth Turner, the Boston
banker, has in his parior a sketch of
Henry Clay, on the back of which is
this inscription:
“This sketch was burned with a poker.
sculpsit. Henry Clay, Boston, Mass.,
1858.”
The face of the picture, which is
burned on wood, is full of indentions
which may be felt with the hand. The
mouth is a black line burned into the
wood,and the eyes are little round holes.
One can feel the marks of the nose, ears
and hair, the buttons of the coat and the
links of the watch chain hanging from
the waistcoat pocket. A similar picture
of Daniel Webster is owned by Samuel
Noble, of Georgia, a business associate
of Edward Tyler, of this city, a member
of tho Union League Club. A third
sketch, a likeness of Shakespeare, is
owned by Francis Fontaine, Commis
sioner of Emigration of Georgia.
These sketches were made by a worth
less fellow, a native of Boston, who
spent most of his days in his cups. He
could do the work only when under the
influence of liquor; when sober he was
too unsteady to guide his tools. Mr.
Turner learned of his talent by accident,
gave him assistance and tried to reform
him. But he was too forgone. He died
soon after meeting this new friend,
leaving with his benefactor the three
sketches—Shakespeare, Webster and
Clay. Webster was done from memory.
Tho artist had seen the statesman only
once, and that was ten years before be
attempted his portrait, yet the likeness
has been pronounced by those who knew
Mr. Webster one of the most striking
overproduced of him.— New York Tri

Ilealtlifiilncss of Tea.
As to the healthfulness of tea-drink
ing in general, it is claimed that, barring
certain kind.i of teas, including Japan
tea, tea-drinking is not only harmless,
but positively beneacial; that there is a
nourishment and gentle stimulus in a
cup of tea which conduces positively to
health and energy. This is the testimony
of those who possess the most intimate
knowledge of tea, ita production and ef
fects. But ten, to be healthful, must be
properly prepared or drawn. It must
come to the lips from the leaf by infusion,
and must not be boiled. Boiling means
a thrusting of ril the available tannin
into the decoction, and if the infusion be
with too much tea or too little water the
effect—tannin—is the same. Further
more, the Chinese, who may be supposed
to have brought the art of exquisite tea
drinking up to a perfect nicety, do not
swallow the tea like the average jurn p
nnd-catch-it Yankee. They do not gulp
down this delicious draught boiling hot,
but sip it merely warm. The American
takes his tea with so much body or
strength that the diversion or dilution
furnished by milk and sugar is necessary
unless the tea-drinker be president of a
country sewing society, the leading spirit
in a lively gossip club—in short an old
stager, well tanned with tea tannin fora
full generation. It has been remarked
that some time ago New England dis
carded the Japan teas mostly. In this
section of the country tho most popular
teas to-day are the Oolongs. These arc
heavy teas. At the West the light teas,
the "recn" and Japans, are preferred and
must consumed.— San Francieco Call.
Disappearance of Poplar.
Poplar, one of the desirable Southern
wood*, has already rea< hed that point of
limit in supply where large consumers are
looking around for a substitute. Some
of tho St. Louis chair manufacturers arc
aow giving tho cottonwood a trial in the
manufacture of chairs, and they are so
well pleased that they will lie likely in
the future to use more of it than of the
costly ma erial whose place place it
takes. It requires a very r lose examina
tion to distinguish certain varieties of
cottonwood from poplar. The difference
in rust between the former wood and
poplar is bound to bring it into market
in general rnfpe: itiou with the latter. j

Fur Seals Learning to Swim.
When the young seal is about a month

that it consists in teaching tho ycung

one can hardly believe it— that tho finest

gets tired, curls himself round like a cat
