TALMAGE AT HOME.
A GREAT CONGREGATION AT THE
ACADEMY OF MUSIC.
He Preaches an Eornest aud Eloquent |
Seraion on "The Hoono on tbe Wail"?
How eke Ssi'ject was Treated.
T. De Witt Talmage, D. D.,
having returacd from his visit to the
Holy Land, resumed preaching in Brook- J
lyn on Sunday. The Academy of Music
* temporarily used instead of the destroy-1
ed Tabernacle, was crowded to its ut I
most. Thousands of people were not
able to get into the building. The sub- j
-? 1-!- -3 = Illtl.. 17>..nn i
jecc oi his discourse was .me auuac vu (
the Wall." Dr. Talmage took for bis
text Joshua vi, 23: "And the young
men that were spies went in, and brought
out Kahab, her father, and her mother,
and her bretberen and all that she had."
He said:
Wnen, only a few weeks ago, I visited
Jericho, I said: Can it be possible that
this dilapidated place is the Jericho that
Mark Antony gave as a wedding present
to Cleopatra? Where are the grov?3 of
palm treesf v> nere is me great meant
from the stage of which Salome told the
people that Herod was dead ? Where is
the syca*ore tree, on the limb of which
Zacchea3 sat when Jesus passed this
place? Where is the wreck of the wall*
that fell at the blowing of the ram's
horn? But the fsct that all the?e have
disappeared did not hinder me from
seeing in imagination the smash ol
everything on the fated day, save out
house on the wall. That scene centuries
ago comes back to me as though it were
yesterday.
There is a very sick and sad house in
the city of Jericho. What is the matter?
It is Dovertv? No. Worse than that. If it
leprosy? No. "Worse than that. la it.
s death? No. Worse than that. A daugb-.
ter has forsaken her home. Br what infernal
plot she was induced to leave Ikn^w
not: but they look in vain for he:
return. Sometimes they hear a footstep
very much like her?, and they start up
and say: "She comes!" but only to siDk
back again into disappointment. AJas!
Alas! The father sits by the hour, with
his face in his hands, saying not one
word. Toe mocner s nair is ueuuaimg
gray too fast, and she begins to stoop so
' that those who saw her only a little
while ago in the streets know her not
now as she passes. The brothers clinch
their fists, sweariog vengeance against
the despoiler of their home. Alas! will,
the poor soul never come back? There
is a long deep, shadow overall, the household.
Added to this there is anTnYading
army six miles away, just over the river, J
coming on to destroy the city, and what
with the loss of their child and the coming
on of that destructive army, I think
the old people wished that they could
die. That is the first scene in the drama
of the Bible. In the house on the wall
of the city is that daughter. That 1:3 her
home now. Two spies have come from
the invading army to look around
through Jericho and see how best it may
be taken. Yonder is the lost child, in
that dwelling on the wall of the city.
The police hear of it, and soon there is
the shuffling of feet all arouad aboui the
doorf and the city government demands
the surrender of those two spies. First,
Kahab?for that was the name of the
lost child?first, R&hab secretes the two
spies and gets their pursuers off the
track; but after awhile she says to tbem:
"I will make a bargain with you. 1 will
save your life if you will save my life,
and the life of my father, and my mothA
mi? V>ore mr QiQl*prc '
ci j auu uij 1/ivnuwtoj wj i
when the victorious army comes upon
the city." 0, she had not forgotten her j
home yet, you see. The wanderer never
forgets home. Her heart breaks now as
she thinks of how she has maltreated her
parents, and she wishes she were back
with them again, and she wishes she
^ could get away from her sinful enthrallment;
and sometimes she looks up in the
face of the midnight, bursting into agonizing
tears. No sooner have these two
spies promised to save her life, and the
life of her father and the life of her
mother, and brother, aad sister, than
Bahab takes a scarlet cord and ties it
around the body of ' one of the spies,
hrinors him tr? thft window, and as he
" 7 ?
clambers out?Derrous lest she have not
strength to hold him?with muscular
arms such as woman seldom has, she lets
him down, hand over haod, in safety to
tbew>und. Not being exhausted, she
^?^g|rtE|??ord around *u" ~Vo HT
and'just sr successfully
lets him down to the ground. No
sooner have these men untied the scarlet
cord from their bodies than they look up
and they say: "You had better get; ail
your friends in this house--your father,
your mother, your brothers and your
sisters; you had better get them in this
>>/Mioa inH thAn vnn bavp thftfn
here, take this red cord which you have
put around our bodies and tie it across
the window, and when our victorious
army comes up and sees that scarlet
thread in the window, they will spare
this house; and all who are in it. ISball
it be so? cried the spies. "Aye, aye,"
said Rahab, from the window , "it shall
be so." That is the second scene in this
Bible drama. There is a knock at the
door of the old man. He looks up and
says: "Come in," and lo! there is Rahab,
the lost child; but she has no time to
talk. They gather in excitement around
her, and she ?ays to them: "Get ready
quickly, and go with' me to my house.
The army is coining! The trumpet!
Make haste! Fly I The enemy F7 That is
the third scene in this Bible drama. The
hosts of Israel are all around about the
doomed city of Jericho. Crash goes the
great metropolis, heaps on heaps. The
air suffocating with dust, and horrible
with the screams of a dying city. All the
the houses fiat down. All the people
dead. Ah no, no. On a crag of the wail
?there, is a house which we must enter.
There is a family there that have been
spared. Who are they? Let us go and
see. Rahab, her father, her mother,
* i?*1 i ~
xier urutuers, ucr si?i.cis, >u oaic, auu
the only house left standing in all the
city. What saved them? Was the bouse
more firmly built? O, no; it was built in
the most perilous place?on the wall; and
the wall was the first thing that fell. Was
it because her character was any better
than any of the other population of
the city? 0, no. Why, then, was she
soared, and all her household? Can you
tell me why? 0, it was the scarlet line
in the window. That is the fourth
scene in the Bible drama. When the destroying
angel went through Egypt. It
was the blood of the lamb on the door
posts that saved the Israelites; and now
that vengeance has come upon Jericho it
is the same color that asures the safety
of Riheb aad all her household. My
friends, there are foes coming upon us,
more deadly and more tremendous, to
overthrow our immortal interests. They
will trample us down and crush us out
forever unless there be some skillful
mode of rescue open. The police of
death already begin to clamor for our
surrender, but, blessed be God, there is
a way out. It is through the window,
and by a rope so saturated with blood
of the cross, that it is as red at that
with which the spies were lowered; and
i? oace cur souls shall be delivered, then,
the scarlet color streched across the window
of our escape, we defy all bombardment,
earthly and Satanic.
In the fcrst place, carrying er.t the idea
of my tex:, we must stretch this scarlet
cord across the window of our rescue.
There comes a time when a man is surrounded.
What is that, in the front
door of my soul? It is threatenings of the
future. "What is that in the back door of
e
bbmhhhbbi^bhhki^bbbbbbbhmsbhw
my soul? It is the sins of Che p?t. He
caacot get out of either of tbo?e doorwsys.
If he attempts it he will be cut to
pieces. Whas snail he do? E-cape

I m*nv a div. God's invitiap mcr^v. God'a !
pardoning mcrcy, God'a all conquering j
mercy, God't> everlasting mercy. But,
say, the window 13 so high. Ah, there is
a rope, the very one with which the
cros* and its victims were lifted. That
was strong enough to hold Christ, and it
is strong enough to hold you. Btar all j
your weight upon it, all your hopes for
this life, all your hopes for the life that
i? to come. Escape now through the
window. "But," you say, "that cord i#
email tn a?ifl rr.A- that talvation will
never do at all for such a sinner as I hare
been." I suppose that the rope with
which Rahab let the two spies to the
ground was thick enough, but they
took that or nothing. And, my dear
brother,tbat is your alternative. There
ts only one scarlet line that can save you.
There hare been hundreds and thousands
who har# beea borne away in safety by
that scarlet line, and it will bear you away
in safety. Do you notice what very narrow
escape those spies had? I suppose
they came with the flush cheek, and
"?itb excited heart. iney weut w mc i
broad door of sin; but how did they
come out? They came out out of tbe
window. They vrenf. up by the stairs of
stone; They came down on a slender
thread. And so, my friends, we go easily
and unabashedly iut9 ain, and all the
doors are open; bu: if we get out at aU
it will be by beiag let down over precipioes,
wriggling and helpless, the
strong grip above keeping us from being
dashed on the rocks beneath. It is easy
to get into sin, young man. It is not s*
easy to get out ?f it.
A youug mid gops to #the marble
coun er of a hotel. He asks for a brandy
smash?called ao, I tuppose, because it
smashes the man that takes it. There is
qo intoxication in it. As the young man
receives it he does not seem to be at all
excited. It does not give any glcsiineas
to the eye. He walk# home in beautiful
apparel, and all his prospects are brilliant.
That drink is not going to destroy
him, but is the first step on a bad ro&d.
Years have passed on, and I see that

ieogth of dissipation. It is midnight,
and be is in & hotel?perhaps the very
one where he took the first drink. A
delirium is oa him. He arises fro? the
bed and comes to tbe window, and it is
easily lifted; so he lifts it. Then he
pushes back the blinds and puts his
foot on the window sill. Then hs gives
oae spring, and the watchman finds bis
disfigured body, unrecognizable, on the
pavement. 0, if he hr.d only waited a

made one jump, and was gone.

ihi* account of bis sorrow. He said: "I

children; but this fiend of run took
their dimpled hands ia his and led them

wretchedness tonight while I wander
over the earth. I bad a mother, and
th? pride of her life was I; but a thunder
bolt struck her. I now have scarcely a
friend in the world. Taste of the bitter
cap I hare tasted, and then answer me
as to whether I hare a?y hatred for the
agency of mj ruin. Hate it! I bate
the whole damning traffic. I would to

would write in the smoke of the ruins:

the gospel went in through the broad
door of temptation: he came out at the
window. And when I see the temptations
tha' are about us in all countries,
and when I know the proclivities to sin
in every man's heart, I see that if any of
us escape it will be#a very narrow escape.
O, if we have my friends, got off
from our sii, let us tie the scarlet thread
by which we have been saved across tht
| window. Let us do it in praise of him
whose blood dyed it that color. Let it
be in announcement of the fact that we
shall no more be fatally assaulted.

will hurl them back defeated forever.
Now, as I stand here, you do not see
any bauds outstretched towards me, and
yet there are hands on my brow?hands on
ooth my shoulders. They are hands of
parental benediction. It is quite a good
many years ago now since we folded
those hands as they began the last sleep
on the banks of the Raritan in the village
cemetery, bat those hands are
stretched out towards me to-day, and
they are just as warm aad they are just
as gentle as when I sat on her knee at
five years of age. And I shall never shake
off those hands. I do not want to.
They have helped me so much a thous
and <lme3 already, and l do not expect
to have a trouble or a trial between
this and my grave where those hands
will not help me. It was not a very
splendid home, as the world calls it;
but we had a family Bible there, well
worn by tender perusal; and there was a
family altar there, where we knelt morning
and night; and there was a holy
Sabbath there, and stretched in a
straight line or hung in loops or featoons
there was a scarlet line in the window.
0 the tender, precious, blessed memory
of a Christian home I Is that the impression
you are making upon your children?
When you are dead?and it will not be
long before you are?when you are dead,
will your child say: "If there ever wa9 a
good Christian father, nine was one. If
there ever wa9 a good Christian mother,
mine was one?"
Still further: We want this scarlet
line of the text drawn across the window
of oar prospects. I see Rahab, at)d her
father, and her mother, and her brothers
aad sisters looking out over Jericho,
the city of plam trees, and across the
river, and over at the army invading,
and then up to the msuntaina and the
sky. Mind you, this house was on
the wall, and I suppose the prospect
from the wiadow must have
b?en very wide. Besides that, I do not
think tnat the scarlet line at all inter1
fered with the view of the landscape.
The assurance it gave of safety must
havt added to the beauty of the country.
To-day, my friends, we sit in the
wiudow of earthly prospects, and we
look off towards the kills of heaven and
the landscape of eternal beauty. God
has opened the window for us, and we
look out. We now only get a dim outline
of the inhabitants. We now only
here and there catch a note of th? ex
quibii? uuiuuuuj*
But blessed be God for thia scarlet
iiae in the window. That tells me that
the blood of Christ bought that home
for my soul, and I shall go there when
mj work it done. And as I put my
hand on that scarlet line, everything iu
the future brightens. My eyesight gets
better, and the robes of the victors are
more lustrous, and our loved ones who
went away some time ago?they do not
stand any more with their backs to us,
but their faces are this way and their
voices drop through this Sabbath air,
saying with ail tenderness and sweetness:
' Come! Come! Come!" And the
child that jou think of only is buried?
why, there she is, and it is May day in

How to Sharpen a Pencil.
- "It really makes me tired to see the
average man sharpen a pencil," said
an old newspaper man in a stationary
store to a Washington Star reporter.
"He will cut his fingers, cover them
with dirt and blacken them with lead
dust, and still will not sharpen the
pencil.
' 'There is buto sharpen a
lead pencil and that is to grasp it firmly
with the point from and not toward
you. Take your knife in the other hand
and whittle away as though you had
lots of pencils to waste. 1' wing
these directions and turnin. > pencil
nvAr vmi will snon have it : !r and
regularly sharpened, and yc >: In gen
will he unsoiled and you will :.o need
any court plaster to put on the wounds
because you cannot cut your lingers
when whittling from them.
"This method is the best, whether
the knife is dull or sharp. If the pencil
is a soft one there is no sense in
sharpening the lead. Simply cut
away the wood, and in writing turn the
pencil over, thus writing with the sides
of the lead.
"Another disgusting and senseless
habit is in placing the pencil in the
mouth when writing. This is a relic
of the da}*s when pencils were as hard
as flint and before the manufacturers
were able to produce the smooth, soft
pencils that are used to-day. The continual
dampening of the lead will
harden even a ?"ood sranhite pencil
and make it hard and gritty. It is
simply a habit, any way, and most
habits are bad ones."

HOW TEE TOWN OF ST, ALBAl'o
WAS lAiih.N.
Twenty-six Confcdernin E?cnpe f.'cm prison
and Cnptureit a Vermont Tcwn?Thc
Banks locked?Trial in Canndr.
Atlanta Constitution.
Sketches innumerable, have appeared
in newspapers and magazines, on both
sides of JIason and Dixon's life purporting
to be "the most daring exploit of
he war." I have, however, seen no allusion
to what I claim, was the most
daring, viz. the capture of St. Albans,
vermont, by twenty-six confederates in
ne latter days of December 'G4, or early
in January '65. Thi3 audacious episode
is so lit'l j known in Atlanta, that a brief
account by one who was almost (not
quite) a part of the capturing force, may
not be uninteresting.
In the summer of 18G4 about 120 confederate
prisoners of war. who had contrived
to escape from different northern
prisons made their way to Canada in
preference to taking the risk of re-capture
in the endeavor to pierce the military
lines, and perhaps have to answer the
charge, so freely made against suspicious
strangers, of being spies, liock Island,
Camp Chase, Camp Douglas, Camp Morton
and other prisons of lesser note each
furnished its quota of this contingent.
Now, such a body of men, who had the
shrewdness and energy to effect their es
cape, were not likely to be inactive in
the stirring events which so much concerned
them. Consequently a movement
was set on foot looking to tbe liberation
of the prisoners on Johnsou's Inland.
This ended in tbe capture and execution
of Major Beal, of Buffalo, N. Y. Following
on the heels of tneir bei.oved
leader's death, it scon became apparent
that Sherman was about to aoandon tbe
sword of the soldier for the torch of the
incendiary. As the mothers, wives and
and sisters of these exiled patiots were
exposed to insult and pillage, naturally
their rage knew no bounds. Said Captain
, of Alabama, to the writer:
''There are enough of us here to draw
off 10,000 cutthroats form our beloved
homes, if we but hang together and
strike in the roost tender SDot. as these
vandals have been striking us."
As a result of mature deliberation
like a clap of thunder in a clear sk?
news flashed over the wires that "arebe!
horde had captured St. Albans, Vt.,
Subsequent events developed the fact
that "the horde" consisted of twenty-six
men, who quietly entered the town and
throwing off their outer wraps, appearaa
in the garb of confederate soldiers, arm
ed to the teeth, and enforced an immedisurrender.
Although the place con
tained 5,000 inhabitants, the mayor ana
city officers counseled submission. The
entire male population was corraled in
the public square and held for hours,
twenty UtiUg uciancu clo a ^u>iu 1U1
them, while the other six went through
the public buildiDgs, both local and federal,
and the national banks. Five millions
in greenbacks, bonds and securities
compensated the captors.
On returning to Canada, a demand
was made from Washington for their extradition,
The case was taken before a
a judge in Toronto on a writ of habeas
corpus, and postponed for ten days to
enable the prisoners to procure evidence.
Now, as much courage and greater
shrewdness was necessary to prove these
men were soldiers? not mere robbers.
Five scouts were immediately dispatched
for Richmond, each commissioned on
the same errand, so if one or more fell
into the hands of the enemy some of
them might get through. On the night
one of the couriers returned, ana on
the tenth morning, just before court
convened, two others came in with a
certified copy of Lieutenant Young's
commission, and certiied copies of the
enlistment papers of each and every one
of the other twenty-five. The trial proceeded;
the court decided the parties
were beligerents, and they were acquitted
accordingly.
S"> strong a presiure, howtver, was
brought to bear on the Dominion government
that parliament was convened
in session extraordinary, and the allien
sedition act passed under the government
whip and spur. This act may be
briefly jepitomized as follows: "lb*
governai general is empowered io suspend
the habeas ccipus by proclamation
in the dominion within forty-eight
hours." ? . .

Vienna Dispatch to the London News.
A movement is cn foot in Austria and
Hungary just now to do away with the
form of salutation customary among
men?that of taking oft the bat. At
Graz a committee has been formed which
passed a resolution and calied upon the
civil and millitary Governors, Baron,
Kuebeck and Count Wurmbrand, as also
on the mayor of the city, begging them
to sanction the resolution by accepting
the millitary salute from their inferiors.
The three gentlemen gladly gave their
conseDt. The wish has also been ex
pressed that the dangerous custom of
uncovering the bead for a length of
time at furnerais snouia oe dODe avcay
with. It is pointed out that the military
salute must necessarily imply at least
as much respect as lifting the hat, lince
a common soldier thus .saluates tbe highest
command in the army. In tbe Miadl
ages the hat or cap was not doffed.

null in Trenton, New .Jersey.
The men have some cause for the
name, too, for, although the mill h*s
been operation but a few months, nearly
a dozea of of their fellow workmen have
been stricken there with death in the
mrist shocking manner possible. Indeed,
so super-ukious are the men becoming
that they go to their labor very reluctantly.
'
THE PERILOUS PROCESS.
The drawing of wire uoder the processes
used at Iioeblicg's is extremely
dangerous, although the firm is rapidly
replacing the old machioeiy hy the pipe
guide system.
A number of large bars of hsavy iron
several inches in diameter are now placed
in a furnace, aad when at ?rhite beat
tbey are rushed over to the chain of
twe.ve rollers with grooves, aud it is
*\aca t^rAiiftK tVioo* rAllArfl
?? U11U I kJS^J U'iCO l,utvu^u VUV?V . V..V.W
that the danger arises.
Two men on either side of the rollers
take charge of the iron in its heaviest
state, and from then on to the finisher,
who is stationed at the end of the long
line of rollers, are boys.
DAXGEROUS "WORK.
The iron passes through the first groove
in the heavy state very rapidly, and at
the opposite side of the rolls stands a
hoy with a pair of tongs, who must
catch this rod of red hot iroa, going at a
rate of about a rod a mioute, twist it
about his head in a snake like wriggle
aDd pass the end into another groove or
a bole smaller than tlie one tnrougn
which it has just passed.
If the boy misses the hole or guide into
which he shoald pass the hot iron
in an instant theiion bends, the end
shoots up and if the lad is not nimble
enough to get out of its way it goes
through his body.
This was the position held by Charles
Cheattle,and, although he was considered
a first class workman, he was not quick
enough to escape the swiftly rolling iron
and it pierced his body through and
through.
HOTCHKISS' AWFUL FATE.
A few days ago Thomas Hotcbkiss,
one of the most expert "roughers," or
men who handle the hot iron when it
nrst passes through the rollers, was Killed
iD this mill in aD even more horrible
manner than was young Cheattle.
Hotcbkiss was standing before tbe
furnace with his tongs when an accident
happened. A fellow workman stooped
over to repair the damage, and at the
same instant a large square rod of iron
c^me rushing from tbe furnace and owing
to the disarrangement of the furnace
Hotchkis codld neither stop tbe iron nor
turn it from its course. Nor could be
move out of his tracks.
He bent over, thinking it might pasa
over bis bead, but in this he was mistaken.

from the Farmers' Review:
PRFPAKATIOiC OF THfc" Lli.
If you have sod ground, en . ;r o. ver
red top or timothy, you need not com
mence in our latitude (Southern Indianauntil
tbe first of May, but if on whet*)
or oat stubble, or on ground that is in
corn, you should commence in August
in the vear orevious to that in which
you expect to grow the crop, by preparing
your groUDd well and sowing k
to rye at the rate of two bushels per acre.
Green manure is the cheapest manure
that we can get for corn, and I know of
none so good as rye. A heavy crop of
clover turned under the first of May is
perhaps a little superior to rye. but you
cannot have it as readily as rye. Plow
under your green crop the first of May,
using a chain or other device for putting
the green matter well under." Break
your ground not less than ten inches
deep, follow with an under breaking,
but do not throw the subsoil on top, but
stir it up from four to six inches more.
Follow with a drag and make the surface
smooth; always drag before noon
1 -1 O **
nuat juu uave uiowcu ID Ifle momiDg:
you may plow all afternoon until eight
or ten o'clock in tbe morning, but stop
and drag your ground before you go to
dinner; if you don't yoa will fail to
make a good connection, if you allow
tbe sun aDd wind to have one day at
your clods before tbey are?crushed.
PLANTING.
Take a medium-sized old fasbion?d
shovel plow and trench off your land in
trenches three and one-half feet apart,
follow with a one-horse drill; be sure
that your drill discharges one grain at
every point required. It you fail in
this there is no remedy but to plant
again, because re-plant never does any
good. When your corn is fairly up take
a small harrow, one that you can make
wide or narrow at pleasure, and go
twice in a row. You should do this ao
you can give your whole attention to
one sice; by so doing you can throw a
little fine of earth down about the coin
when it is only four or five inches high
After this you can set your harrow so
that ycu need not go but once in a row.
Go through every week or ten days for
four or five times, always setting your
harrow so that it will throw a little more
earth to the plant until the trench is
full. You need not stir the ground
more than two inche? deep. You need
not give yourself any uneasiness about
weed3. They won't trouble you if you
uave prepared me ground as aoove described.
By following the plan of sowing
rye in your corn you can grow five or
six consecutive crops without ary bad
effects on your lands, when, without it
you would nearly or quite exhaust it.
