The Bev. T. De Wilt Talmage, D. fj D., of Brooklyn, preached in London, Sunday, taking for his text Acts rvi, * 31: "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, ^ and thou shalt be saved/' He said: * Jails are dark, dull, damp, loathsome v places even now; but were worse in the c apostolic times. I imagine to-day we ? are standing in the Philippian dungeon. t Do you feel the chill? Do you hear the v groan of those incarcerate ! ones v ho t for ten years have not seen the sun- ? light, and the deep sigh of woaieu ^ whf remember their father's house, j and mourn over their wasted estates? < Listen again. It is the cough of a con- i gumptive, or the struggle 01 one iu a i nightmare of a great horror. You lis- 1 ten again, and hear a culprit, his chains < ntftleing as he rolls over in his dreams and you say: ;'God pity the prisoner." But there is another sound in thai ] prison. It is a song of joy and glad- : ness What a place to sing in! The ? music comes winding through the cor- i ridors 01 the prison and in all the dark wards the whisper is heard: What's thai? What's that." It is the song of Paul ?nd Silas. They cannot sieep They have been badly whipped. The long gashes on their backs are bleed" ingyet. They lie flat on the c^ld ground, their feet fast in wooden sockets, and of course they cannot s=eep. But they can sing. Jailer, wha? are you doing with these peopi*Why Lave they been put in here? O, they have been trying to make the world b?iter. Is it that? That is aii A pit for Joseph. A lion's cave for Daniel A blazing furnace for Sbadrach. Clubs for John Wesley. An anathema for Philip Melancthon. A dungeon for Paul and Silas. But while we are stai'ding in the gloom of that Philippian^dungecn, and we near :ae minding voices of sob, and groan, and biasphem, and hallelujah, suddenly an earthquake! The iron b^rs of the prison twists, the pillars cack off, the bOUU IlJUlSUUiy UOglilS L<J U?\C 6UV. rock till all the doors s^ing open, a.n'*I the walls fall with a terrific crash. The jailer, feeling himself responsible for these prisoners, and leeling suicide to be honorable?since Brutus killed himseli, and Cato killed himself, and Cassius killed himself?puts his sword to his own heart, proposing with one strong, keen thrust to put an end to his excitement and agitation. But Paul cried out: "Stop! Stop! Do thyself no harm. We are all here." Then I see the jailor running through the dust amid the ruin of that prison, and I see him throwing himself down at the feet of those prisoners, cry ing out: "What shall I do? What shall I do?', Did Paul answer "Ge? out of this place before there is another earthquake; put handcuffs and hobbles on thos^ other prisoners, lest they get away?" Not a word of that kind. Compact, fKrHlli-nor tramAndons Answer: aaswer memorable all through earth and heaven: "Believe 011 the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved/. Well, we have all read of the earthquake in Lisbon, in Limn, in Aleppo and in Caracas; but we live in fatitude where in all our memory there has not been one severe volcanic disturbance. And jet we have seen fifty eartbquakes. Here is a man who has been building np a large foxiune. His bid on the ? -^roS&y market waste! tin ail the cities. He thinks he has got beyoad all annoying rivalries in trade, and he s;iV3 to himself. "Now I an free and safe from all possible perturbation." But a national panic strikes the foundation of the commercial werld, and crash: goes all that magnificent business establishment. He is a man who has built up a very beautiful home. His daughters have come home from the seminary with diplomas of graduation. His sons have started in life, honest, temperate and pure. "When the evening lights are struck, there is a happy and ah unbroken family circle. But there has been an accident down at the beech. The young man ventured too far out in the surf. The telegraph hurled the terror up to the city. An earthquake struck under the foundations of that beautiful home. The piano closed, the curtain dropped; the laughter hushed. Crash! go all those domestic hopes, and prospects, and expectations. So my friends, we have all lelt the shaking down of some great trouble, and there was a time when we were as much excited as tn:s man of the text, and we cried out as he did: "What shall I do? What shall I do?" The same reply that the apostle made to him is appropriate to us: "Believe in the Lord;Jesus Christ and thou sha.lt be saved." There are some documents of so little importance that you do not care to put.any more than your last name under them, or even your initials; but there are some documents oi so great importance thac you write out your full name. So the Saviour id some parts of theBible is called, "Lord" and in other parts of the Bible he is called "Jesus," and ia other parti oi the Bible he is called ''Christ," but that there might bo no mistake about this passage, all three names corae in together^'the Lord Jesus Christ." Now, who is this. Being that you want me to trust and believe in? Men sometimes come to me with credentials and certificatesfof good character; but I cannot trust them. T^ere is some iiJo'krti-.oa+TT in fh^ir looks that make: UWuvmvwvj *** v ? w? me know I shall be cheated if I con fide in them. You cannot put your neart's confidence in a man until you know.whatastuffhe is made of, and am I unreasonable this morning, when I stop to ask you who this is that you want me to trust in? No man would think of venturing his l;fe on a vessel going out to sea, that bad never beec inspected. No, you must have the certificate hung amidships, telling how many tons it carries, and how long ago it was built, and who built it, and all about it. And you cannot oxpect me to risk the cargo of my immortal interests on board any craft till you tell me what it is made of, and wb*re it was made, and what it is When, then, I ask you who this is you want me to trust in, you tell me he was a very attractive person. You tell me that the contemporary writers describe him, and they give the color of his eyes, and t.^A of his hair, and thev describe his whole appearance as bemg resplendent. Christ did not tell the children to come to him- "Suffer little children to come unto me," whs not spoken to the children; it was spoken to the Pharisees. The children had come without any invitation. No sooner did Jesus appear than the little ones pitch from "their mothers' arms, an avalanche of beauty and love, into his lap. "Suffer little children to come unto me." That was addressed to the Pharisees; not to the children. Christ did not ask John to put his head down on his bosom. John could not help T\n+.

But it was not elfieminacv, or < nsipidity of character; it was accom- t janied with majesty, infinite and t jmnipotent. Lest the world should i lot realize His earnestness, this Christ t nounts tbe cros-! You sa\: "If Christ i ias to die, why not let llirn take some 1 leaalv potion and lie on a couch in 1 some briitht aud beautiful home? If ] He must die, let Him expire amid all j kindly attentions." No, tbe world i must hear the hammers on the heads r>f the spikes The world must listen j to the death rattle of the sufferer. The < world must feel His warm blood orop- ' ping on each cheek, while it looks up into the face of His anguish. And so the cross must be lifted, and the ho'e is dug on the to . of Calvary. It must be dug three feet dee]), and then the cross is laid on the ground, and tbe sufferer is Wretched upon it, and tb* nails are pounded through nerve, and muscle, and bone, through tbe right band through tbe left hand; and then they shake his right hand to see if it is fast, and then they shake hi^ left foot to see if it is fast, and then they heave ? ai if ? fi/v/^n shoulders Up bile >VUUU, lie* A 4A0 under the weight, and they put the end of the cross to the mouth of the hole, and taev plunge it in,, all the weight of his body coming down for the first ticae on the spikes, and while some hold the cross upright others throw in the dirt and trample it down, and trample it hard. 0, plant that tree well and thoroughly, for it is to bear fruit such as no other tree ever hore. Why did Christ endure it'? He could have taken those rocks, and with them crushed his crucifiers. He could have reached up and grasped the sword of the omnipotent God. and with one clean cut have tumbled them into "Rnf. nrt he was to die. He , pciuaiv/u. xrv*v -w, must die. His life for my life. His | life for your life. Ia one or the European cities a young mau died ou the scaffold for the crime of murder. Some I time after, the mother of this young man was dying, and the priest came in, and she made confession .to the priest that she was the murderer, and not son; ia a moment of auger she had struck her husband a blow that slew him. The son came suddenly into the room, and was washing away the wounds and trying to resuscitate his father when so -je one looked through the window and saw him, and supposed him to be the criminal. That young man died for his own mother. You say: ''It was wonderful that he never exposed." But I tell you of a grander thing. Christ, the Son of God, died not for his mother, not for his father, but tor his sworn enemies. 0, such a Christ as that?so lovinar, so sellsacificing?can you not trust Him? ) think there are many under the spirit of God who are saying: *'I will trust him if you will only tell me how;'* and the great question asked * * 1 hv thousands m tms assemblage is, "How? how?" And while I_ans?ver your question I look up and utter the prayer which Rowland Hill so of-en uttered in the midstof sermons; "Master, help!" How are you to trust in Christ? Just as you trust any one. You trust your partner In business with important things. If a commercial house give 3rou a note payable three months hence, you expect the payment of that note at the end of three months. "You have perfect confidence in their word and in their abili ity. You go home today. You expect there will be food on the table. You have confidence in that. Now I ask you to have the same confidence in the Lord Jesus Christ. He says: 'You believe; I take your sins," and they are all taken away. "What!" you say, "before i pray any more/ Btfore I read my Bible any more? Before I cry over my sins any more?" Yes, this, this moment! Believe with all your heart and you are saved. Why, Christ is only waiting to get from you what you give to scores or people every day. What is that? Jonfideuce. If these people whom you trust day by day are more worthy than Christ, if they are more faith ul than Christ, if they have done more than Christ ever did, then give them the preference; but if you really think tnat Christ is as trustworthy as , they are. then deal with him ss fairly. "Oh," says some one in a light way t4I believe that Christ was born in Bethlehem, and I believe that he died on the cross." Do you believe it with you/ head or your heart? I will illu* i trate tne amerence. x ou are ia yum own house. Ia the morning you opec . a newspaper, and you read how Capt , Braveneart ou the sea risked his lift for the salvation of his passengers You say: "What a grand fellow h( . must have been!

But* now you are on the sea and it is night, and you are asleep and ai e awakened by the shriek o , "Fire;" You rush out on the deck You hear, amid the wringing of th< hand3 and the fainting, the cries: "N< Ku o y?> 1 r\zi ! rtr?k QrA Incf Th* r? v c?i v x v?Jc . ir v v avuvi ? ?- > sail puts out its wings of fire, the ropes make a burning ladder in the nigh heavens, the spirit of wreck hisses ir waves, a ad on the hurricane deci shakes out its banner of moke anc darkness. 'Down with the life boats!" cries , the captain. "Down with the lift boats!" People rush out into them The boats are about full. Room onlj for one more man. You are standing on the deck beside the captain. Whc shall it be? You or the captain? The captain says: "You." You jump in and are saved. He stands there, and dies. Now believe that Capt. Braveheart sacrificed himself for his passengers. but you beiteve it with love, with j 1 .3 {.ears, wua not ana long couuuucu ts-s.clamations, with grief at his loss and with joy at your deliverence. That is saving faith. In other words, what you believe with all the heart, and believe in regard to your self. On this hinge turns my sermon; aye, the salvation of your immortal soul. ^Mrs. Hemans, Mrs. Sigourne.y, Dr. ^oung and almost all the poets have said handsome things about death. There is nothing beautiful about it. When we stand by the white and rigid features of those whom we love, and they give no'answeriog pressure of the hand, and no retunimr kiss of the lin. we do not want anybody poetizing around about us. Death is loathsomeness, ar>d midnight, and the wringing of the heart until the tendrils snap and curl in the torture unless Christ be with us. I confess to you to an infinite fear, a consuming horror, of death unless Christ be with me.

''Yes," she said, "I am lonely." "How many in the family?" "Only myself." "Have vou had any children?" "I had seven children." "Where are they?" "Goat-." "All gone?" "All." "All dead?" "All." Then she breathed a long sigh iuto the loneliness and said: "0, sir, I have been a good mother to the grave." And so there are hearts here that are Utterly broken down by the bereavements of life.

In proof of this view, it a is a well known fact tiiut good," healthy, restful sleep rarely if even takes place when the head is full ot f blood. * Continuous prevention or any in- ( terference with sleep is the most far reaching damage producer to the hu- ; man system. Comfort and content- ( ment arc obliterated. Their attendant , substitutes are nervous irritability, mental anxiety, which sooner or later, according to the resistance power of the individual, become idiocy, mania or death, preceded by a painful physical collapse. At this moment just how manv insomniacs there are in New ' l.~ x xK r?4. lork alone is uiiKnown, out uie iuci. exists that 10 per cent, of "Wall street" operators are wretched sleepers and 5 per cent, more are pronounced victims of insomnia, who never sleep except under exhaustion or from the benumbing influence of some hypnotic ?it may be chloral, opium, alcohol, sulfonal or bromides. These used in ever increasing quantities to produce artificial sleep must end by the dc struction of intellectuality. This is brought about by a constant contraction of the bloodv vessels supplying the brain structure, because these hypnotic drugs primarily act upon the great nervous centers whence arise those nerves distributed to all the blood vessels which are known as the vuso-motor nerves, or governing nerves. Under the influence of such drugs theso nerves are either paralyzed or over excited, and they keep up a I /./xnctoTit. flimirmtion of the caliber of the blood vessels, wherefore the wholesome supply of nutrient blood is kept from the brain, which temporarily promote sleep, but ultimately destroy it. What is the safe remedy for sleeplessness? What can be done to cure insomnia? In these two leading questions the entire subject is considered. Thousands of insomniacs can trace tlaeir troubles to causes readily remediable in the beginning. The absence of correlation between the brain and the stomach must be known as a prime factor in preventing sleep. The muscle brawn laborer rest* infinitely better when he seeks hi* sleep with a stomach comparatively empty; with him sleep is that oblivion which his slow acting brain awards the work strained muscles. The brain worker proper?students, professional men and builders of fortune?rarely sleeps soundly and regularly. ?* -?* > T QOV sf.TldV ?KJ 5UCU ~J , v your stomachs and keep them" comparatively full for two purposes. First, to coax the blood current away from a flaccid lot of blood vessels ramifying through every nook and corner of your brain, which is too active and loaded with natural fullness. Secondly, the stomach must contain food in order to keep up a steadv supply of that always in demand pabulum necessary to healthy nutrition, without which no organ can thoroughly do its allotted work. The brain worker must always woo sleep vfith a full stomach, 1 warm feet, cool head and quiet heart's ; action. But what if there is a tendency to an epidemic of insomnia as ! the result of that dreadful wave of the higher education of our boys and girls, ' offsprings of nervous parents, inherit' ing their debilitated physical consti1 tutions, with a coadded attenuated > higher intellectuality, undoubtedly ' now being made manifest as our 1 voun<? neonle enter adult life? 1 If we bu/ rccall the beginning oi ' the upward wave of intellectual life ai I it existed twenty years ago and conI trast it with the present concert pitchl ed tones of educational life, we maj ; possibly check these sleepless nights > and the early physical decay evinced " by a thousandfold increase in neural1 gias, a vast amount of ever ag^regat ^ ing eye diseases, or rather a failure it 3 eye accommodation, by urging the 5 educators to cease their so caiieu phy b sical efforts, not because one youth e cannot absorb every subject novi >? taught, but simply because it is done I This intellectuality and physical ad e vancement of the age are dangerous n TVto cnil is f.Of u UCty Uiiu. ? -- i fallow.

Dun- , can's premises, found the dead body of , a bright mulatto girl, named Susie Fer- ( nandes. from Spartanburg, lyinp in a ( gully about three feet deep with her throat cut. from ear to ear. The coroner and sheriti were at once notified, who went to the scene of the horrible deed and summoned a jury, who are now at work on the case and will probably finish it by Tuesday evening. As far as can be ascertained, it appears that she was killed in a house occupied by a colored woman named Lottie Mack, in the back yard of Dr. M. A. Moore. She had a great many bruises over her head and face Alter killing her, the body was redressed, as there was not a drop of blood to be found on her clothes. When found a dull barlow knife was lying under her head, and her hat, handkerchief and gold spectacles were lying on the edge of the gulley, thus trying to make it appear as it she r.ad committed suicide, fche had been missed for some five or six days. Five arrests have been made so far?four women and one man. A special to the Greenville News gives the following: The coroner's jur}' found that the woman, Susie Fernandes, ''came to her death by one James Vincent, white, and Lottie McMahon, Charlie Gilliam and william Davis, colored." From the facts gathered from the testimony at tne coroner s inquest, tne | murder is the most diabolical and cold blooded that has ever been committed in this county. James Vincent had . been intimate with the deceased for ' some time, the result of which was thai; she was expected to become a mother. From the testimony of Wm. Davis, he ; with Charlie Gilliam, Lottie McMahori ' and James Vincent went to the cem' etery where the body had been conveyed after death and removed it about a quarter of a mile, to a swamp near Mr. T. C. Duncan's residence : where they threw it into a ditch, dis . arranged the clothes, placed a knife near by, to give the impression that t the deceased was assaulted and then - murdered. The accused are all now f in jail and will proceed through their lawyer to try to get bail. t ... J Deadly Faith. * Brooklyn furnishes auotber faith cure 9 victim iu William 0.

THE C'LEMfON WILL CASE. A .llotion to Adrncc? tfa?j Case on liif Docket of the United Marcn Supreme Court ."Undo and Argued ir Waskinztan- Oecixisu Re^ei veH. Special to th? News and Courier. Washinoton, D. C., January 20.? There was an unusually brilliant ar* ray of legal talent from South Caroli na in the United States tupremt Court room today. There were attorney General Jos. H. Earle, Messrs, A. T. Smythe and J L. Orr, repre^ centing the State of South Carolina ir r the famous Clemson wsll case, and Ex j Attorney General Leroy Youmaus ? Mestrs. J. if. Carey ana Aiexanae] - King, representing Miss Isabella Lee ? Ex-Governor ChamberlaniD, Con; gressman Dibble and several othei t South Carolinians were also present - but the latter w ere not connectec f with the Clemson case. After Chie Justice Fullor and his associates ba< read several decisions the Court announced its readiness to hear appeals for motions on behalf of the State o South Carolina. ' Attorney General Earie presentee certain reasons why the Ciemson cas< ? shonld be advanced upon the docke 3 for oral argument thereon. a. te; briefly reciting the salient features o j the case, he submitted three points u a sustain his motion to advance: First. That this case comes direct r, ly within the rule which prescribe r- that where the State is a party, th r State has a right to submit to th< a Court a uiotiou to advance. Second. Thsit the ca e is one upoi 3 its own merits, of such paramoun _ importance, not only involving Iarg< 9Ti>nnTit.a_ hat idso relating- to Jarsri \ educational interests, and ot such bel; efit to the people at Jarge that it de serves the attention of the Court an< its interposition under the ecabJinj e statute for a speedy determination o , the same. !_ Third. That unless this ca.se is ad ,t vanced and disposed of so that actua ^ operations may be instituted by thi e State bafore the 20lh of April, 1891,; e very senous question will arise wheth r er the State will not entirely lose tin benefit of tue bequest. Gen. Earle sai l that if rhe Courl re fused to grant the motion :o advance n he hoped permission would be granU< n to ?abmit ihe case upon printed arguments at the earliest practicable peri tViQ.t. t.ht* for Ai ^ KJ^L. -L.VV, " Lee were willing to accept this propo sition. Justice Miller suggested that i would be necessary for counsel to fill a certificate to that effect. Mr Youmaus promptiy stated tha s the representatives of Miss Lee *er? willing to have t^e case advanced oi ? submit it upon printed argumen's. Chief Justice Fuller remarked thi; 3 tbe statement of .Mr. Youmans in oper '* Court rendered a printed certiticat* unnecessary.
