"MAN'S ESTIMATE.

Present OpportnoitiM.
The Xev. T. DsWitt Talmage, D. D.
preached in the Academy of Music,
Brooklya, Sunday morning, to an
overflowing congregation. After oxpounding
appropriate passages of
Scripture he announced his subject fc j
be: "Would You Like to Live Your
Life Over Again?" His text was Job
ii, 4: "All that a man hath wiil he give
for his life." He said:
That is untrue. The Lord did nc*1
say it, but Satan said it to the Lord,
when the evil one wanted Job still
morA afflicted. Tie record is: "So went
Sataa forth from the presence of th?
Lord and smote Job with sore boils."
And Satan has been the author of all
eruptiye disease since tsen, and he
hopes by poisoning the blocd to poison
the soul. But the result of the diabolical
experimeat which left Job victor
proved the falsity of the Satanic remark.?"All
that a man hath will be
give for his life." Many a captain who
has stood on the bridge cf the steamer
till his passengers got off and he
drowned: many an engineer who h&j
kept his hand on the throttle vaiye or
~ " - ' * * xl.. , r
his loot on tne orase unui tue uv;?
the train was sared while he w?ut
down to death through the ope a drawbridge;
many a firemaa who plun?ed
into a blazing house to get a sleepicg
child out, sacrificing his life in the at
tempt; and thousands of martyrs who
submitted to fiery stake and knifo of
massacre and headsman's ax xr.d guillotine
rather than surrender prmoip-e,
proving that iu many a case mv text
was not true, when it says: ''All
that a man hath will he give for hia
life."
But Satan's falsehood was built oa a
truth. Life is very precious, and \i
we would not give up all there '.re
many things we would surrender rauier
than surrender it. We see hew
precieus life is from the fact tint ^ve
do every thing to prolong it. ^-ecce
all sanitary regulations, all 3tudv of
hygiene, all fear of draughts, nil waterproof,
all doctors, all medicines, ail
struggle in crisis of accident Ati admiral
of the British navy vas courtmartialed
for turning his ship around
in time of daBger and so damaging
the ship. It was proved against him.
"D?^ Viia Hm? Rfl he.ird

ho said: "Gentlemen, I did Uirn th*
ship around and admit that it was
damaged, but do you wait to know
why I turned it? There was a mar.
overboard, and I wanted to save him.
and I did save him, and I consider the
life of one sailor worth all the ve&sDis
of the British navy." ^10 wonder he
was vindicated. Life is indeed very
precious. Yea, there are these who
deem life so precious they would like
to repeat it, they would like to try it
again.

past life. We have all made so is any
mistakes, stumbled into so many blunders,
said so many things that ought
not; have been said and done so maov
things that ought not have been done,
that we can suggest at least ninetyfive
per cent, of improvement. Now
would it not be grand iftfae good Lord
would say to you: "You can go back
aad try iI over again. I will by a word
turn your hair to brown or black or
golden, and smooth all the crinkles
out of your t?ruple and cheek, and take
the bend out of your shoulders, and

asd the rheumatic twinge from the
foot, and you shall be twenty-one
years of &ge and just what you were
when you reached that point before."
It the proposition were made I think
many thousands would accept it. That
feeling caused the ancient search for
what was called the Fountain of
Youth, the waters cf which taken
x ould turn the hair of the octogenari
an iato the curly locks of a boy, and
however old a person who drank at
that fountain he would be ycung again.
The island was said to belong to the
group of the Bahamas, but lay far
out in the ecean. The great Spanish
explorer, Juan Ponce ?e Leon, fellow
voyager with Columbus, I nave nc
doubt felt that if he could dip cover
that Fountain of Youth h-s would do
a3 mu^h as his friend had do.\o ia discovering
America. So he put our in
1512 from Porto Rico and crus-d a bo at
among the Bahamas in search of that
fountain. I am glad he did not and
it. There is no such fountain. Bu- if
there were and its waters v?re bottled
up aad seat abroad at a thousand
dollars a bottle, the demand would be
^greater tcan the supply, aud many a
man who has come through a life ~ of
uselessness, and perhaps sin, to old
age would be shaking up the potent
liquid, ani if ke were directed to tike
only a teaspoonful after e?ch n,->al
wouid ?>e so anxious to m-se sure
work he would take a tabie?poo*i'ui,
and if directed to take a tabiespooiiul
would take x glassful. But some of
you would have to 50 back further
than twenty-one years of age to i^ke
a fair start, for there are mfiy ^rho
manage to get all wrong before thtxt
period. Yea, in order to get. a fair
start some would have to go back to
the father and Mother ana then
corrected; yea, to the grandfather and
grandmother and have their life corrected,
for some ol you are suffer:* nq;
from bad hereditary influences waich
started a hundred years sgo. "Well, if
your erandfather lived his life ovt.again
and your father lived bis life
nv?r Qcrnin ?;ni vni] lived vnnr life... ver
again, what a cluttered up place this
world weuld be, a place tilled witu
miserable attempts at repai -s. I begi e
to think that it is better foi ac'i generation
to have only one cbtnce and
then for them to pas# off aad give another
generation a chance.
Beside that, if we were p-i m it ted to
live life over again, it would bo r- st&lo
and stupid experience. The rest and
spur and enthusiasm of life come from
the fact that wehave never bees along
this road before, and everything k
arif? vca a.rft a]?rt for wra.r. icn.v
appear at the next turn of the road.
Suppose you, a man in mid-life or old
age, were* with your present feelings
and large attainments, put back into
the thirties, or the twenties, or into
the teens, what a nuisance you would
be to others and what an unhappinesa
to yourself. Your contemporaries
wouid not want you and you would
not want them. Things that in your
previous jouraey of life stirred your
healthful ambition, or gave you pleasurable
surprise, or led you into happy
i ore f i rvr". wmil^ rir* 1 xr /tall -frwt
from you a disgusted "Oh, pshaw!"
You would be blase at thirty and a
misanthrope at forty and unendurable 1
at fifty. The most inane and stupid
thing imaginable would be a second
journey of life. It is amusing to hear
people say: "I would like to lire my
life over again, if I could take my pre*
ent experience and knowledge of J
things back with me and begin under
those improved auspices.'' Why, what j
an ue interesting bov vou would bs .
with your present attainments in a
child's mind. j
Besides that, would you want to risk :
the temptations of life over tg^in? ;

You have got through, as Job says, by

you might not get through at all.
Satan would say: "I know him no*

SI ty years been studying his weaknesses,
and I will weave a stronger
web of circumstances to catch hi;Q

center his forces on this tne mnn, *uc

would do almost the same as he has
done. If a naa eat graen apples some
Wednesday ia cholera time, and is
thrown into fearful cramps and says

Besides that, we have all these years

in the next decade we ought to accomplish
more ior God and the churca

four decades. The best way 10 atone
for past indolence or past traasgressioa
is by future assiduity. Yet you

fifty, as old age comes on, laying:
"Well, my work is about done and it
is time for me to rest." Th?y gave
forty years of their life to Satan and
the world, a little fragment, ef their
life to God. and now they want to
rest. Whether that belongs to comedy
or tragedy I say not. The man wao
gave one half of his earthly existence
t* the world aad of the remaining two
quarters one to Christian work and
tlae ether to rest, would not,I suppose,
get a very brilliant reception in

Tn? great bridge over the River Forth
at Edinburgh which was opened last
Tuesday is ODe of the wonders of nodem
engineering. It is the greatest bridge
ever constructed ?a the cantilever principle.
It wa? begun in 18S3 and in its
building over 50,000 tons of the finest
steel have been used. The bridge proper
is over a mile long, and the viaducts at
each end add a half rei'e to its length.
It has in its central pniM'tns two spans
of 1,710 feet eacli, whicb are the longest
ever attempted. The tjciia span of the
Brooklyn bridge, thr next longest in the
world, is 1,600 feet, while the longest
span at Niagara is only 808 feet. It required
the labor of an army of men for
seven Tears to coostruct the great Forth
bridge. At one time 4,500 men were
employed on it. 8ucb a great work can
hardly be completed without some acci
deot to those tngijed it. The total

herself back as she was the nij;hc that
her mother left home

AFTER TURNER'S BLOOD.
\ ci .^sisry .^lob Cow to Rnve the Pr'noHcr.
The fe?iiM?s against- Turner around
Valley Pal's was intense.
Oil cj&Uirtlay night ruicors of a i;ef
termination to lynch him reached the
cifcj: ca Suncmy uneasiness prevailed
3 here, but no manifestation wa3 made
t until Monday morning,
f T' e people of Valley Falls had rc.
ceived notice that a party of-00 lynch?
er=. thoroughly organized, would
? reach town on Alonduy at noon, ?.nd
i were instructed to be prepared there
i. to ai-v.;st m tne :ync.nng. About two
r hundred of ther.} assembled ntar the
c Morgan Monument. When twelve
? /clock arrived, and the North Carolina
lynchers did not come, the crowd
- grew resile-;?and u?'y. They wanted
i, to lynch the prisoner without further
- delay; but, relying on the organized
mob which the\' expected, they were
n without concert or leadership. Sheriff
r Nicholls and his deputies, Brewton
o and V ernou \riin Jir. Andjew -Moore
e and Ed: Gentry were in the jail arine
ed with Winchester rifles, shot guns
s and revolvers.
Mr. Nicholls was a brave Confederate
u iolcier. with :i reputation f.>r courage
an<i devotion U> duty which is known
x all OTf-r the country ahd by eon d it. He
a was sending behind the bars declaring
n that no man should reach Turner but
over his dead l,od?. Tbey knew the
man and 20 one wjj willing to charge
him.
Fianliy four met. went to the cocanpfor
i.iie cannon belonging to tiie
Sj-rai'tfi Attillcry. They raised it up
(1 vum a .ruo-ii ana nurraa, ana uniimoer"
ed :: iii fro:jt ef the jail.
The men who brought the gun were
members of the ortillery company and
knew how to u?e it. The men in the
> jail-were Jircceu with Winchester nfles.
it The distance w^y seventy-five yards. A
>l bloody due' ;;i short range with artillery
i, and rifles seemed imminent. Men who
>i had remembered the scene of blood at
I Birmingham, begas to scatter from the
o s'reei.?, hut still the nirrow jail alley
d w,;. packed with excited men. No oas
kn- w whether the canton r.-as loaded.
ii?s men in tuc jhu tbou^nt so and
were determined that it should
jr never be tired into the building. They
e were ready with leveled rifiej to shoot
c oil the gufcscra .-it ibe Srst hostile movement.
The g'.tu was not loaded. The
t. men :n cbftrgs had marie ttieir plans to
] u:-o iron fi?h bsra from the railroad and
siec-Iyaru peas for cannon shot, but they
ha.i not yet gotten them. The crowd wa?
a getting momentary more excited. Just
,r at this moment Mayor ITenneman met
q the editor of the Hekald an i said:
"What is to be done now?"
? ,,Se:zMne gi?n and ?;pikeir.," replied
Mr. Jones.
.g Mayor Heacenaan'V resolution was
takes at onc?. There f?.ns no time to
)t organize h forcc. What was to be ?ooc
j- ra's.-t be done proaiptij. He bad but
ie s:x policemen i.i bis command, but be
^ did r.ot hesitate.
"Follow me," ha continued, and thej
moved-down Jail street, through the
mob.
c Ivlr. Jones ran through Archer's
r store and rushed up on the opposite
? side of iboj car.noa ^rith the saout,
v *-? n i.; ??-.?- auLOfe iu\, i-auu n u\j
brought it here"!
J. '.'J-ijor ILianeaiiia phcel his foot on
d the cannon an ! s*io: ';I will arrest
'e the lirst man ^uo touches the gun."
It ^=3 a critical moment. The man in
rs charge of the jux. tak?a b/ surprise,
j- stepped back in the crswd. Mr. E. II.
Carver, who >vsj on; of them, lays that
's he i".tt half Vlru&ken men on all rides,
reacbiojjfor their pistols,and that he saw
I one issia draw a self-cocking: rev?lver,

a and stopped him. A single shot fired
e by a druDksa coward rrould h*7e beea
the s-gnr.l for a bloody fusilade. Esfore
they recovered froro their surprise, Mr.
Jo2cs seized a hatchet, and drove a nail
t in the touch hole of the cuoson, and ia
3 less than two miauies six policemen
k and two civilians had captuied the
e csisnon in the facc of trro hundred
angry men, and spiked it. acd the
danger wis over, acd a dozen negroes
. wore trundling the useless caaooa into
the jail. Without artlilerj the jail fa
. impregnable.
Tiie condition in the jsil -s^as b.?rdiy
Icjs exciting, and the danger from that
' quarter w?.? greater than from the saob.
The officers did sot undcrs'.acd the ?udI
den corcrco.ion and thought that the attack
was comnicccing. Their guns were
ready, thoir fingers on the triggers, and
the riberiiZ -p.-as on the point of giving
j the-order <o fire when Ma?ot Hcncernan
, held ud Li3 handkerchief. The men in
. charge of that cannon nrver iiscw how
nsar they were to death.
, Fr.'enda of Sheriff Nichoiia telegraphed
: to the Governor for military aid. When
the Sheriil heard of it he at once tele
