"And so it came to when their hearts were merry, that thev said : CaU for Samson, that b thv called for f,f r,f i ha tc Lo L-e: and he made them .'port." In other word. there are amusements that are fie.-!ru-"tive. and bring down disaster and death upon the heads of those who practice them. While they laugh and cheer, they die. The thr e tLoa-an I who perished that day in fjfcza are as nothing compared with the tens of thoii-and. who have been destroyed by unful f.m'jsements. But the other test I have read implies that th-r" is a lawful u of the world, as well as Bn unlawful abuse of it; and the difference between the man Christian and the man un christian is that in the former case tbe man mas'frs the world, w hile in the latter case the world mas'tT3 him. For whom did God inake this grand and beautiful world? For whom this wonderful expenditure of color, this gra-vefy !n-ss of line, this mosaic of the grou:-d. this fresco of the iky. this glowing i niitige of orchard and vineyard, this full '-n.herra of the t-mtest, in which the tree N-iin' Les f.ute anl the winds trumpet and the th? ti.ui;ei5 dmra and all the splendors of ; th and .-ky co:r.e clashing their cymbals?

Hitherto. Chri-tian philanthropist', cleri cal an d lay, 1 ave busied themselves ehieflv in ier;cincing s;nfu! recreations; but I ftef we ave no rizht o stand lfore men and women in who e hearts there is a desire for recrea tion amounting to positive necessity, de nouncir.g this an 1 that an 1 the other thing, when wi- c'.onot rromise to give them some thing b ttr-r. God helping me this morning, :nd with refcren -e to my last account, I shall ' titer tij'on a sf here not usual in sermoniz- g, but a stibje-'t which I think ought to be I :e:ventL-d at this time. I propose now to lay ; efore you some of the recreations w hich are not on! innocent, but positively belpful and advantageous. In tho first place, I commend, among in ixr recreations, music, vocal and instru mental. Among the first things created was She bird, so that the earth might have music at the start. This world, which began with ?o sweet a serenade, is finally to be demol ished aniid.-t the ringing blast" of the arch r. gel's trumpet, so that as there was music it the start, there thall te music at the close. While this heavenly art Las often been Iragged into the uses" of superstition and dis ipat.on. we ail know it may be the means of ;igh moral culture. Oh, it is a grand tuing to have our children brought up amidst the ound of cultured voices aad amidst, the melody of musical instruments. There is in this art an indescribable fascination for the he uphold. I-t al! those families who have the means to affor d it, have flute or harp, or :,-iuno or organ. As soon as the hand is large ;n-ugh to compass the keys, teach it how to p.ck out the melody. Let all our young men ry this heavenly art upon their nature, riiose who have gone into it fully have found in it illimitable recreation and amusement. Park days, stormy nights, seasons of siek aess, businot-s diaters, will do little toward depressing the soul which can gallop off over musical keys or soar in jubilant lay. It will cure iain. It will rest fatigue. It will quell passion. It will revive health. It will re claim dissipation. It will strengthen the im mortal soul. In the battle of Waterloo, Wel lington saw that the Highlanders were fall ing back: be said: '-What is the matter Lr-re.'" He was told that the band of music had cea-od playing, and he called up the r irrs and ordered them to strike up an in spiriting air; and no sooner did they strike :L;e air than the Highlanders were rallied and helped to win the dav. Oh, ye w ho hare ! cen routed in the conflicts of life, try by the force of music to rally your scattered bafc l-ulions. 1 am glad to know that in onr great citiei there is hardly a night in which there are noi conrts where, with the best musical instru ments and the sweetest voices, people may find entertainment. Patronize such enter taiments w hen they are afforded you. Buy season tickets if you can for the " 'Philhar monic" and the "Handel and Haydn"1 socie ties Feel thtit the dollar and a half or twe dollars that you spend for tbe purpose of hearing an artist v'.ay or sing is a profitable investment. It your Steinway haL's and vocr academies of music roar with the ac 'amatirn cf appreciative audience? assem bled at the concert or the oratorio. ti'l further. I commend as worthy of sup port the gvmnasium. This institution is tiain ng in favor every year, and I know of r.othins more free from dissipation or more calculated to recuperate the physical and mental energies. While there are a good many people who have employed this insti tution there is a vast number who are iznor tnt cf in excellences. There are menVith cramped chests and weak 6ides and despond-ri'-nt spirits who through the gvmnasium might be routed tip to exuberance and exhil firation of life. There are many Christian people despondent from year to year who m.ght through such an institution be bene fited in their spiritual relations. There ere Christian people who seem to think that it i3 ffood Rign to be poorlv, and because Richard raster and Robert Hall were invalids they fehlnic that by the sams sickliness they may ftne to the same grandeur of character.

Still further: I commend to you a Iarze c!a- of parlor games and recreations. Ther is a way of making our homes a hundred fold more attractive than they are now. Tho-e parents cannot eitiect to keen their children awav from outi le dissipations nn lesi they make the domestic circle br.ghter 01 " pathetic, and with a fczlf condemnatory loo because of the sportiulnes; of vour children. You were young once yourself: let your chil dren be young. Because your eyes are dim and your ankles are stiff do not denounce sportfulness in thov? upon who? eye there is the first lustre, and in whose foot there is the bounding joy of robust health. I thank God that in cur drawing-rooms and in our parlors there are innumerable games and sports which have not upon them the least taint of iniquity. Light up all your homes with innocent hilarities. Do not sit down witii the rheumatism, wondering how children can go oa so. Rather thank God that tbeir hearts ar? so light and their laughter is so free, and that their cheeks are so ruddy and that their expectations are so radiant. The night will come soon enough, and the heartbreak, and the pang, and th9 desolation it wid come soon enough for the dear children. But when the storm actually clouds the sky it will be time enough for you to haul out your reef tackles. Carry, then, into your homs not only the innocent; sports and cames which are the inventions of our own day, but the games which come down with the sportfulnsi of all the past ages chess and charades, and tableaux and battledore, and calisthenics, and lawn tennis and all thoe amusements which the young people of our homes know so well how to contrive. Then there will be the parlor soci alitiesgroups of people assembled in your homes, with wjt and mimicry and joviality, filling the room with joy from the door to the mantel and from the carpet to tbe ceil ing. Ohl is there any exhilaration like a score of genial souls in one room, each one adding a contntuuon or his own individual merriment to the aggregation of general hilaritv? w i ,- t'. ;ti a k- -- IvI , J .Zt-TtZ ,1 7, Z You w ill find the Metropolitan Museum and the Historical Society rooms full of rare curi osities, and scores of places which can stand plainly the test of what is right and wrong in amusements. You will find the lecturing hall, which has been honored by the names of Agassiz in natural history, Dorernus in chemistry, Boynton in geology, Mitcl-el in astronomy, John B. Gough in moral reform, an I scores and hundreds oi men who have poured their wit and genius and ingenuity through that particular channel upon the hearts anl consciences and imaginations of men, setting this country fifty years farther in advan'-e than it wouid have l-en without the lecture platform. I rejoice in the popularization of outdoor sports. I hail the croquet ground and the fidierrnan's rod and the sportsman's gun. In our cities life is so unhealthy and unnatural that when the census taker" represents a city as having ),' ) inhabitants, there are only 4'.-i.'j0. since it takes at least two men to amount to one man, so depleting and unnerv ing and exhausting is this metropolitan life. We want more fresh air, more sunlight. more of the abandon of field sports. I cry out for it in behalf of the church of God as well as in behalf cf secular interests. I wish that thi3 winter our ponds and our rivers and our Capitoline grounds might be all awake with tbe heel and the shout bf the swift skater. I w ish that when the warm weather comes the graceful oar might dip the stream ani the evening tidj he resonant with boatman's song. the bright prow srlitting the crystalline billow. We shall have tbe smooth and grassy lawn, and we will call out people of all occupations and professions, and ask th?m to join in the ball player's sport. You will come back from these outdoor exercises and recreations with stren5th in vour arm. and color in your chek, and a flash in your eye, and courage in your heart In this great battle that is opening against the kingdom of darkness we want not only a consecrated soul, but a strong arm and stout lungs and a mighty muscje. I bless God that there are so many recreations that have not on them any talnl of iniquity; recreations in which we may engage for the strengthening of the body, for the clearing of the intellect, for the illu mination of the soul. There is still another form of recreation which I commend to you. and that is the pleasure of doing good. I have seen y ung iiien weak and cross and sour and repelling in their disposition, who, by one heavenly touch, have wakened up and become blessed and buoyant, the ground under their feet and tbe sky over their heads breaking forth into music. "Ob," says some young man in the house to-day, "I shonld like that recreation H':ove all otners, but I have not the means." My dear brother, let us take an account of stock this morning. You have a larsro estate, if you only realize it. Two hands. T wo feet. You will have, perhaps, during the next year, at least $10 for charitable contribution. You will have twenty-five hundred cheerful looks, if you want to employ them. You will have five thousand pleasant words, if you want to Fak them. .Now, what an amount that is to start with. You go out to-morrow morning and yon seacasa of real destitution by tho way side. You give him two cents. The blind man hears the ynn:es rattle in his hat, and be says: "Thank you, sir; G'M bless you." You pass down the street, tying to look in dift"erent;but you feel from'the very depth of your soul a profound satisfaction that yon made that man happy. You eo on still far ther, and find a poor boy with a wheelbar row, trying to get it up on the curbstone. He fails in the attempt You say : ''Stand back, my lad; let me try." You push it ud on the curbstone for him, and pass on. He wonders who that well dressed man was that helped him. You did a kindness to the boy, but you did a great joy to your own souL You will not get over it all the week. On the street to-morrow morning you will "e a sick man passing along. "Ah," j-ou say, "What can I do to make this man happy? lie certainly does not wajg money: he is riot poor; but he is sick." Give himoneof thosetw nty ri ve hundred cheerful looks that vou have gar nered np for the whole year. Look jov and hopefulness into his soul. It will thrill him through, and there will be a reaction upon your own son!. Going a little farther on you will come to the store of a friend who is em barrassed in business matters. You will go in and siy: What a fine store you have! I think business will brighten up." and you will have more custom alter a while. "I think tr.ore is coming a great prosperity to all tbe country. Good morning." You pass out. You have helped that young man. and you have h"!p?d yourself. And that night you po home; you sit by the fire, you talk a littl, you sing a little, you laugh a little; you say: 'I really don t know what is the matter with Tie. I never felt so splendid in mv life." I will tell what is the matter w:th ou. You spent only two cents out of the10f you have contributed one out of twenty-five hun dred cheerful looks; you have given ten, fif teen or twenty of the" five thousand pleasant rords you are going to speak during th year; you have with your own hands helped tho boy with the wheelbarrow, and you fe4 n body, mind and soul the thrill of that recreation. Which do you think was the harpier CoL Gardiner, who sat with bis ?loow on a table epread with all extravagant mads, locking c2 &t a doat ca tta rug, saying: How I would lite to -hangs places with him; I be the dog and he be Colonel Gardiner ;n or those two Moravian missionaries who wanted - to go into the lazaretto for the sake of attend ing the sick, and they were told : 'H J" on go in there, you will never come out. We never allow any one to come out, for he would bring the contagion. n Then they made tbeir wills and went in. first to help the sick and then to die. Which was the happier, Colonel Gardiner or the Moravian missionaries dymz for others 1 Was it all sacrifice when the missionaries wanted to bring the Gospel to the negroes at the Barbadoes, and, being denied the privileges, sold themselves into slaverv. standing sid by sid3 and lying side by side down in tbe very ditch of suffering in order that they might bring those men up to life end God and heaven? Ob, there is a thrill in the joy of doing gooL It is the most magnificent recreation to which a man ever puts his hani or his bead or his heart. But, before closing. I want to impress upon rou that mere secujar entertainments are not a fit foundation for j our soul to buiid on.

If from our death pillow we have to look back and see a life spent in sinful amuse ment, there will be a dart that will strika through our soul sharper than the dageer with which Virginius slew his child.

A Unique Advertisement. Sme years asro. when Mr. Boncer be came worn out with the fatigue of hard work, he purchased a place in the coun try. He bad not been there a p-eat while when the following appeared in the LtJger under the heading, 'A country seat for sale where there i3 fever and ague:" I hereby offer to sell my country seat at West Morrisania. near Melrose Station, where I have lived for the pas three summers, but do cot think I could live much longer. I have heard that people looking for a place to Eurchase could never find one where they ave chills and fever. They always have it about a mile or a mile and a half or two miles away, but never right there at the place that Is for sale. Now. I offer for sale a curiosity something rare the precise, exact spot where the fever and ague is. I will warrant it to be there. Three of my children have it, my gardener has it. my gro-m has the premonitory symptoms, and I have a suf ficient inkling of it myself. Any doctor with a large family, with a specific for fever and a?ue would find it a most eligible situation. The neighborhood is fuli of the disease, aad if he could keep it out of his own family it would give him a reputation which would assure his future. Besides th fever and ague the estate consists of a fine double house with modern conveniences anl improve ments, such as hot au 1 coii water, furnace, range, etc. About two acres of land, a pretty fair barn, and some excellent box stalls for horses. It is really a beautiful place. Tbe grounds are handsomely laid out and covered with shrubbery ani trees of the choicest J kind. Tbe trees not only afford a delightful j shade, but a nice harbor for mosquitoes. I j bought the plac-j to please my wife, and shall sell it to plciso my whole family. Terms j cash.

The first vessel that ever lore that name was a steamer launched in J833. She went down during the same year w ith the loss of one life. Another "wa? built about 1S37, and in 1S3S foundered with the "loss of sixty-eight lives.

"I've had malaria, aad I've been cored. "Yes. but a man can have malaria more than once." . . . INot if he is cured the way I was. About ten years ago I was living in Indiana, in Vigo county, rear Terre Haute. In those days a man was regarded as a stranger until he had drank about a gallon of whisky and quinine, and shaken down his bedstead three or four times with tbe ague. I had a rather reticent nature, and I suppose it took the rlimate longer to get acquainted with me than it did the ordinary run of men. For I had to drink about a barrel of whisky and take whole pounds of quinine before I could get strong enough to even shake myself, let alone a bed.' "How was I cured.'" "Well it was a novel cure. I boarded with a Mrs. Dennis, who told me she could cure me if I would take her medicine. Finally arwnd my bead so f could not see; then she j tSt a Sfssf water, and told me to I agreed. She brought a towel ana bouna it take my dose, and immediately swallowed tbe water. The dose tasted like a little ball of dust, and as it was going down I felt a sharp pain in mv throat, as if it had been scratched. "The next morning iirs. Jennis crougnt fore." The medicine this gentleman took fcr malaria, may haTe been effective, but few would care to try the remedy. "or is there anv necessity for it Malaria is a poisoned condition cf the blood, produced by bad air and water, which enter the blood-channels through the stomach and lungs, and other ways, and produce in jurious effects on the liver anl kidneys. It is cured by putting the liver and kidneys in perfect, healthv working order. The drugs ordinarily used for such purposes frequently do quite as much harm as good, and leave the system in an enfeebled condition. The certain and harmless remedy for ma laria is Warner's safe cure, which puts the liver and kitneys in healthy action, when the poison is carried out of the system, and the serious enect3 it engenders pass away. J. 3L Bocth. Springfield, Mass.. under date of March 2. 1ST, writes: 'One year ago I had the malaria had had it more or les3 for ten years. I stopped all other medicines and took Warner's safe cure, an 1 it cured me. This country is famous for malaria, and I know Warner's safe cure will cure it." People who live in malarious localities will find in Warner's safe cure a specific against contracting this disease. The malarial poi son can find no entrance to the system, if tbe liver and kidnejs are kept in healthy action. The gentleman who swallowed the spider, concludes his narrative in the New York Mail and Ejrpress by saying: "I was effectually cured, but I wouldn't take another dose of that medicine to save my life." Making Silrer Dimes. It is not generally known that th United States Mint, on Fifth street, ii the largest institution cf the kind in th world, yet it is a fact. Just at the pres cnt time there is a lively demand foi eilver dimes, and hundreds of thousands of dollars of them are being shipped tc New York, Chicago, Cincinnati, St. Louis and other Eastern cities. Two ol the money presses have been for somi lime running exclusively cn this coin. The demand is so great that thes machines are not even stopped on Sun days, and will be run on that daj throughout the present month. The process of dime-making is an interesting one. The silver bullion i first melted and run into two-pound bars. These in turn fire run through immense rolle- and flattened out to th thickne a of the coin. These tilvc strips are then passed through a machin j wnicn cuts mem mio trie proper size ioi the presses, the strips having tirst been treated with a kind of tallow to nrevcnl their being scratched in their passage through the cutters. The silver piecei are then put into the feeder of the print ing presses, and are fed to the die by automatic machinery at the rate of 100 per minute, 4?,00Q dimes being turned out in the regular working day of eight hours. As the smooth pieces are pressed be tween the ponderous printing dies they receive the lettered and figured impres sion in a manner similar to that of a paper pressed upon a form of type; at the same time the piece is expanded in a flight degree, and the small corrugations are cut into its rim. The macaine drops the completed coin into a. receiver, and it is ready for the counter's hands. The instrument used bj the counter is not a complicated machine by any means, as one might suppose. It is a 6imple, copper-colored tray, having raised ridges running across its surface at a distance apart the exact width of a dime.

The Spanish her rador' or shoeing smith, for he does no other work, generally jobbing or repair ing, has no us? for J.he drawing-knife, and he never touches or pares anything but the wall, and tnat with tbe butteris, and on no consideration would he put on a calk unless ordered to do so by a veter inarian. It may be surprising, but never theless it is so, that lameness located in the feet or caused by shoeing is far more rare in Spain than in England or America. Philadelphia Vre.
