They are coming, and moth lag can keep them bock—the events ot aTwelvomeotL It will, I think, to m of the greatest year* of all time. It will abound with blessing and dimeter. National aad international controversies of momentous import will be muled.

The tamest year for many a decade peat toa dag its millions of craves aad reared its millions of marriage altars.

Before many of you there will be twelve monthi of opportunity far making the world better or none, happier or more ! miserable. Lot w pray that it may be a 1 year that will indicate the speedy redemp tion of the hemisphere. Would to God that this might be the year in which the three greet >ostrumenti now chiefly turd for secular purpose) might be put to their mightiest ose in the world’s evaugelisa ,tion — the telegraph, the telephone, the phonograph. KecLricity has inch potent tongue, such strong arm, such swift wing, each lightning foot, that It occurs to me that it may be the angel that St. John row aad heard la am oealyptie vUion when he I started bade and cried out, “I saw anoth er angel flying in the midst of heaven bar ing the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on tbs earth and to every nation aad kindred and tougue and pee They were toneuea of See that sot on the heads of the disciples at ths Pentecost, and why not ths world oiled to God by tongas of electric Cm?

The fivers are bound in crystal chains. The fountains that made highest leap in the summer parka now toes not osd let, for every drop would be a from tear. The sleds craauch through the hard snow. Warmest attire the wardrobe can afford is pot on that we racy defend ourselves against the fary of the elements. Hardest of all the mouths for ths poor, 1st it be tbs season cf greatest generosity on the part of the prosperous. How much a scut tle of cool or a pair of shore or s coat or a shawl may do in assuagement of suffering between lira 1st of January aad tho 1st of February Cod only knows. 8cat«d by our warm registers or wrapped in furs which stake us independent of the cutting Janu ary bloat, 1st M sot forget tho tireless hearth and the thin garments and the hocking cough and ths rheumatic twines of those who through destitution find life in winter an agony. Suppose each on* of Oe take under chares one poverty-stricken household or one ditab'ed man or ono in valided woman. On our way home from So charity, though the wind may be ling aad tho night tempretuons, 1 Id not wander if we eoald hear a voice I that was hrsrd on Galilee tud at the gates I of Nafo and by the pool of Betbesda lay ing, “Xnevmnrh as ye did it to them, ye did it to Me.’’ eight baud tbf battw repeated in tha 5h*—tha aoand of drum, tha clash of nt, tha groan* of djri^ mb and than tha withdrawal of tha aosma iato samp.at* dieno*. Thas* shepherd* and travelers rapeatad ia tha nafghbaring towns what they hoard, and large numbers of people, expecting that all war a demotion, want ant on tha following night, and they board the aama aproar and tumolt in the hear ana—the two armies in battle. The king, i bearing of thia aesming combat ia the ! heavens, sent embassadors to inquire iato tha mystery. In tha sight they ibo heard tha ssofliel and eniae keck to tho king and took solemn oath as to thia mysterious accniienet. Whether those shepherds and travelers and ambaamdrwi of tha king were in de lusion I cannot any. but thia I knew—that tha fareas at God and tha {arena of Satan at* now la combat, tho haavsna as wall as tha north ia struggle as to who shall win this world far hlsaaadncas or woe, and, a* the amiss of God are mightier than tha arm is* diabolic, we know wbe win triumph, and w* bars a right to shoot tha victory through our Lord Joans Christ. STO'S.Sffi tha conflict. I have na fear a boot tha tre mendous tame. Mr only fear is that w* will not b* found m tha ranks and fuQy armed to de ear part ia thin campaign of the *t entitle*. Again,! remark that tha month of Jan uary has scan many at tha moat stspen dons events ia the world’s history and a rocking of emdloa and tha digging of grave* that bar* affected nations. Ia thia month American independence was de clared, followed by Lexington and Bunker Mill and hleamouth and Valley Forge end York town. January saw the proclamation that abolished American slavery. Though 1 <U tha time there wars two mighty opin ions and they were exactly opposed—thoee who liked the document and these who dis liked it—there ia bat on* opinion now, and if it ware pat to rot* in all tha State* of the South. "Shall slavery ha reinstatedV* there would b* an overwhelming vote of “Noi“ The pen with yhich the document was signed end the inkstand that con tained the iak are relies at sacred and val uable as the original Declaration of Inde pendence, with all its erasures and inter Iin nations. Tha institution which far sev enty or eighty year* kept tha nation in angry controversy hat disappeared, and nothing ia left to fight about. The North and the 8o«th to-day are in as complete accord aa seer war* Out* and coraat in tha **mt orckutra. The North has built its factories ah tha banka of the ChatU booths* and tha Roa noke, and tha Sooth hat aunt many of its able* attorneys iato our northern CO art houses, its most skilful physicians into our aick rooms, its wisest bankers iato our exchanges, its most consecrated ministers into our pulpits—ell this tha result of tho proclamation of January 1, 188S. Furthermore, I notice that January has been honored with the nativity of soma Moor* of the military world. Robert Burns of the poetic world. Polycarp of tha mar tyr world, PaUr the Great of tb* kingly world, Daniel Webster of the statesman world. Bet I cannot read the epitaph* of one out of a handled iliustrioa* graves in thi* first mouth of the rear. Many of those well known gained naif their renown and did half their work tkroueh the help of those a! whom we know little or nothing. Lard Herschel is knows all the world over end will be known through all time, but little is **>d of her who wee bom this first month of the year, and without whose help he never could have been what he wae—hie sister, Caroline Lneretia Augus ts. She helped him hunt the worlds, tsho repaired and adjected hie teleeeopea. She ciphered eat hie astronomical prob lems. She was hie amansenaii. 8ha planned for him hi* work. She discovered ecran comet* end made "A Catalogue of Nebulae sad Star Clusters." The month of Jan nary introduced her to the observa tories, but she hat navar bean properly tn •troduced to the world. Cultivate faith in God and the feeling that Ha will do far you that which is beat, and yon will b* ready for either eanehhi* or ehadow. The other eleven months of the year IMS will not all be made up of gladnaa* or of grief. The cup that i* all mad* up of ewectaeea la insipid. Between these just opened gates of the year and the closing oi those gate* there will be many times when you will erant God. Yo* will here questions to dec id* which will need supernatural impulse. There may be Dinners of tb* body or per plexities of mind or spiritual exhaustions to be healed end comforted end strength ened.' During the remaining twenty-six days of this month lay in a supply of faith and bops and eoorag* for all the dev* of the eleven months. Start right, and yon will be apt to keep right.

Solomon Spaulding era* for soma time in poor henlth, and to while sway tha time ho wrote a preposterous religious ro mance. One Joseph Smith somehow cot hold ol that book before it was printed and pub'iabsd it as a revelation of heaven, rolling it the "Book of Mormon," and from that publication came Mormoniam, the monster abomination of the earth. Hev. Solomon Spaulding might have bean better engaged than writing that book of falsehoods. However much time we hare, we never have time to do wrong.
