Feb. 1.?The deep reiigi-! ous 1'eeling- manifested in Dr. Taimages ' congregations since his recent arous- J lug "Appeal to Outsiders" has appar-; ently encouraged him to continue! preach:::2 distinctively evangelistic; sermons. To-dav he delivered another i discourse of the same gospel type, both j at the mornins: service in the Academy of Music. :r. this city, uiiii at The j ^uristian Ilerald service at night in the Xew York Academy of Music, ilis text was taken from Mark x. 21: "One thin? thou lackest." The young man of the text was a j splendid nature. "Wefall in love with j him at the first glance. IIo was ami- j able and frank and earnest and educat-1 ed and relined and respectable and i moral, and yet he was not a Christian, j And so Christ addresses him in the | words that I have read to you, "One j thing: thou lackest. I suppose that that text was no 'more appropriate to the young man of whom 1 have spoken than it is appropriate to a great multitude of people in this audience. There are many things in which you are not lacking. For instance, you are not. lacking in a good home. It is perhaps no more than an hour ago that you closeu the door, returning to see whether it was well fastened, of oue of the best homes in this city. The younger children of the house already asleep^ the older ones, hearing yor.r returning ; footsteps, will rush to the door to meet j , }ou. And in Licse winte^eyenin^s j ^he children at tlPPfTIescr the paper,you ' teei that you have a goou homo. Neither are you ;aciiing In tue remie- j ments and courtesies ci iiie. You un- j derstand tiie toliie phraseology or in-1 vitation, regard and apology. You I nave on appropriate appare:. i suau ; wear no belter dress at the wedding j ifcan when i come to the marriage ot' lh& king's son. If I am well clothed. vii other occasions i will be so in a religious audience. However reckless I may be about my personal appearance as other times, when 1 come into a consecrated assemblage i shall haveou the test aress I haveT Wo all understand the proprieties of every day life and the proprieties of Sabbath lif*. JN either are you lacking in worldly success, l'ou have not made as much money as you would nice to make, out you have an income. While others are raise when they say they have no income, or are making no money, you have never told that falsenood. You have had a livelihood, or you have failen upon old resources, which is just the same thiDg, for God is just as good to us when he takes care of us by a sur-! plus of the past as by present success. 1 'While there are thousands of men with [ hunger tearing at the throat vrith the j strength of a tiger's paw. not one of | . you. is hungry. Xeither are you lack- j mg m pleasant friendship. You have ' real good friends. If the" scarlet fever ; should come to-night to your house you | know very well "who would come in I and sit up with ;the sick one; or, if i death should come, you know who! would come in and take your hand i light in theirs with that peculiar grip ; which means "111 stand by you," and, i after the life has fled from the loved | one, take you by the arm and lead yen into the next room, and while you are gone to Greenwood they would"stay in the house and put aside the garments and the playthings that might bring to your mind tco severely your great loss. Friends ? Yoa all have friends. Neither are you lacking in year admiration of 'the Christian religion. There is nothing that makes you so angry as to have a man malign Christ. You get red in the face, and you say, '.fir, 1 want you ro understand that thonch 1 nm nnf. mr^lf r> rhrtetian. T ! Uon'c like such things said as that in my store/' and the man goes oil, giving yo*u a parting salutation, but you hardly answer him. You a <5 provoked b?yond all bounds. Man* of you have -vusa*sssupporters of religion anil nuvo given more to the cause ol Christ than some who profess his faith. There is" nothing that would please you more than to see your son or daughter standing at the altar of Christ, taking the vows of the Christian. It might be a little hard on you, and might make you nervous and agitated for a little wnile, but you would be man enough to say: "j.Iy child, that is light. Go on. I am glnd you haven't been kept back by my example. I hope some day to join you." You believe j all the doctrines of religion. A man out j-onder says, "I am a sinner." You respond, "So am I." Some one says, "1 believe that Christ came to save the world." You say. "So do I." Looking at your character, at your surrounding, I find a thousaruli things about which to congratulate you. f.nd yet I must tell you in the love and fear of (Jod, and with reference to my kst account, "One thing thou lacke?.*." Ycu need, my friedds, in the Orst plaoj", the element of happiness. So mo day you reel wretched. You do noli, know what is the matter with yen. You say, "1 did cot sleep i;:st right. 1 think thai must be the r<Nt<on of my restlessness;" or, "I hav;> e^ten something that did not agree with me, and I think that must bo the reason." And you are unhappy. ON. my friends, nappmess does not depend upon pnysical condition, Some of the happiest people I have ever known have been those rrho have been wrapped in consumption. or stung with neuralgia, or burning with the slow lire of some lever." I could call upon the aged men in this house to testimony. There are aged men here who tried the world, and they tried religion, and tiiey are willing to testify on our side. It was not long ago tha't an aged man arose in a praying circle and said: "JJreth_ ~'ren, 1 lost my son just as he graduated 0 1 :* i irum uu::rj;r, ik::u it uij uout, i but I am glad now l-c is gone. lie is j at rest, escaped from all sorrow and ! ali trouble.

Again, you lack the element of per-1 scnai safety.

First, to that grtat multitude ofyouug people in this house. .scm?> of these ymmg men are ::: be ardiug houses. They have but few serial advantages. They thick that no e:;.res for their souls. Many of them are op ? trail salaries, and they are erumped and bothered perpetually, and sometimes their hear-; fails them. Y'.jung nam, to-night at your bedroom door on t!:c third lioer yoa will hear a kneckin-j. 11 t?ill be the hand of Jesus Christ, the young man's frienu, saying. "Or.. jeung man, :ci me come ic; i win j help thee, 1 will comfort thee. I vrill deliver thee." Take the Bible out of the trunk if it has been hidden away. If you have not the courage to lay it 011 thr shelf or table, take that Bible that was given to you by some loved one, :ake it out of "the trunk and lay it down on the bottom of the chair, then kneel down beside it, and read and pray and pray and read until all your disturbance is gone and you feel that peace which neither earth nor hell can rob you of. Thv father's God, thy mother's God, waits for thee, O young man. "Escape for thy life!" Escapanow! "One thing thou laekest!" But I apply this subject to the aged ?not many here?not many in any asa <-> a nrtf-. livA to Pet v" A" V-'il*S?V * vV v?v . o { old. That is tha general rule. Here and there an aged man in the house. I tell you the truth. You have lived long enough iu this world to know that it cannot satisfy an immortal nature. 1 must talk to "you more reverentially than I do to these other people, while al the same time i speak with great piiinncss. 0 fathor of the wearr step, O mother bent down under the ailments of life, has thy God ever forsaken thee? Through all these years who has been your best friend ? seventy years of food and clothing! Oh, how many bright mornings! How many glorious evening hours you hare "seen! 0 father, mother, God has been very good to you. Do you feel it V Some of you have children and grandchildren; the former cheered your young lile, the latter twine your gray locks in their tiny lino-pra :il! th? PT.ndnMS that God has been making piss before you produced no change iu your feelings, and must it be said of you, not withstanding all this, "Oas thing thou lackest?" Oh, if you could only feel the hand of Christ smoothing the cares out of wrinkled faces! Oh, if you could only feel the warm arm of Christ steadying your tottering steps! I lift my voice loud 'enough to break through the deafness of inc. ear while I cry out, "One thing thou lackest." It was an importunate appeal a young man made in a prayer meeting when he rose up and said: '*Do pray for my old father. He is 70 years of ago. and he don't love Christ."" That father passed a few more steps on in life, and then he went down. lie never ?nve any intimation that he had chosen Jesus. It is a very hard thing for an old man to become a Christian. I know it is. It is so hard a thing that it cannot be done by any human work; but God Almighty can qo it by his omnipotent grace; he can bring you at the eleventh hour?at haii-pa?: 11?at one minute of 12 he Cun bring you to the peace and the joys of thci glorious gospel. I mi;?t make application of this subject also ro those who are prospered, ifiivc von. my friends, found that dollars and cents are no permanent consolation to the soul? You have large vvorluiy resources, but have you no treasures. no heaven? Is an embroidfeiou piliovv" all iliat you want to put your dying head on ? You have heart! people all lasr, week talk about earthly value*. Hear a plain man talk about the heavenly. Do you not know it will be worse for you, 0 prospered man, if you reject Christ, and reject him finally ?that it will be worse for you than those who had it hard in this world, because the contrast will make th? discomfiture so much more appalling? As the hart bounds for the water brooks, as the roe speeds down the hillside. speed thou to Christ. "Escape for thy life, iook r.ot behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain lest thou be consumed." I must make my application to another class of persons?the poor. When you can not pay your rent when it is due. have you nobody but the landlord to talk to? When the flour has gone out of the barrel, and you have not ten cents with which to go to the bakery, and your children are tugging at your dress for something to eat, have you nothing- but the world's charities to appeal to? When winter comes, and there arc no cohIs. ami the ash barrels h-ivr- no more cinders, who takes care of } .?;:?

When they got several miles off, the river commenced rapidly rising, and before they could return to the ierrv the water got beyond bounds and covered the ground several feet. The men realized their peril, and sought refuge on a small strip of land, which the water completely encircled and formed a little island, "in the heart of the dence swamp. The four mm were forced to remain on the island eight days, awaiting the water to recede, which has not yet returned within its coniines. Eight days on an island were trials of entwine and distress. The men were without provisions, and no possible means of securing i'ood. Each day they s'.rarn out in the stream in hopes of striking dry land that would lead back to the starting point, but water was everywhere. Equanimity was destroyed."and death from starvation stared'them m the face, for there was no sign of a raven, and it was apprehended among the men that in "their craze to satisfy hunger they would finally have to resort to cannibalism. All they had to eat in eight days was an 'possum, which they caught in the drift wood, and cooked by a lire on the island. A searching party, in boats, was uwiwl rhits h:i.i fdansed.

For obvious reasons the people of the south feel that they will get more benefit from the fair than any other section. They feel that this election measure, whatever its merits are. will be converted in a sectional issue. They feel that sectional agitators, both north and south, will make it a bloody shirt issue for 1802. If this viewis correct, as 1 believe it is, its effort will I neutralize any effort we may make at j Chicago to induce capitol and labor in the southern states. It will thus not only check tiie material progress now u?;vei-j oping In the south, but will retard it for j years to come.

Just at 0 o'clock, as the day-shit', composed of seventy-live miners, were about to leave te mine, a terrilie explosion occurred arid immediately black smoke came pouring1 out the :->ide of the mountain. Men, women and children rushed towards the entrance of the mine only to be driven back !>y clouds of smoke. Above the roar of the escaping gases the cries of the imprisoned miners could be plainly heard bv their wives and children. .^ooii willing hands braved the great danger and started the hoisting' machinery. relieving each other as fast as their 'comrades became exhausted, soon the seventy-five miners were brouxh1- to the surface, some more dead than alive, ana nr>ne of them any too soon, ab the ilames immediately reached the Shalt :md came up with saca force that it drove everybody away, i Explosions have followed every few hours. At 2 p. m.the excitement is-so_ | great that it is impossible to tcl! if any i.rtf failed to sret out. It is thought several have perished. Had the explosion occurred when tlie miners were at work not one would have escaped. The mine has been on fire several times before in the last tea years, caused by the miners' lamps igniting the gas, which has always troubled them. \ .! ijovci S'Or.

The immediate injury was taken care of, bat ;i short time after the girl became completely blind in her left eye. During :he years that followed the young woman suffered from constantly recurring attacks of severe headache, the pain beginning at the seat of the early injury, passing to the blind eye, and then to the right eye, which also was at times sightless. These headaches recurred so constantly and were so painful that insanity was feared and trie St. Louis physicians were consulted. They took out a portion of the bone in | the young woman s swiui, anu. uesiues alleviating the pain and headaches, completely restored the lost sight. The case is looked upon by the doctors as one of the miracles of surgery. Gives It Up. Wa8iiixgtox, January 31.?Senator Aldrich returned to Washington from Rhode J si and this morning. During the morning hour he ^as busily engaged consulting a number of his Republican i colleagues upon !he condition of the business of the Senate, and the prospects of a successful outcome of any lurcher attempt^ to secure the passage of the cloture rule and elections bill. As already indicated :n ti;e,ae uespaicnos it was found there wrs a pronounced indisposition on the part of a number of the Republican Senators a;,rain to enter on what they regarded as a hopeless struggle in view of the tact that the Republican "bolters" are still presumably { of the same mind as they were when they voted to lay the closure rule aside. Consequently it may ho stated with posilivencss thai the managers of the election bill have linally decided to abandon the measure, in the interest of the important public business remaining to be ' acted on. As a result of this decision it is conceeded on both sides of the chamber that! the necessity for an extra session disap| pears. The decision has been communicated to the Democratic Senators.

As soon as Link saw the six men were after him he began firing on them, having in his posession two six-shooters, lie shot two of the men in the arms, defied the rest and held them at bay. It seems that Waggoner had not been placed in a cell, and did his shooting from the corridor, dodging into different apartments as lie did so. In trying to pull open the door of a fellow prisoner's cell the latter caught the door with one hand to keep him out, when Waggoner drew a knife and cut olf the man's lingers. The sheriff says when placed in jail he was scearched and no weapons were discovered about him, and it is supposed his friends have since furnished him with arms.
