Dm Staunton, Va. 9 1% Msn Sacrifice Themselves. On the Altar of the Golden Calf and Every Day is a Day of Judgment ?Appropriate Sermon for tue limes. This week Dr. Talmage preached a sermon appropripate to the money | making spirit of the times. It was ! "The Golden Calf/' the text selected : being from Exodus xxxii, 22: "And j he took the calf which they had made and burt it in the fire, and ground it to powder and strewed it upon the trofov ninde the ohildren of j Israel drink of it." People will have a god of some kind, and they prefer one of their own making. Here come the Israel ites, breaking off their golden earrings, the men as well as the women, for in those times there were masculine as well as feminine decorations. Where did they get these beautiful gold earrings, coming up as they did from the desert? Oh, they "borrowed" them of the Egyptians when , they left Egpyt. These earrings are piled up in a pyramid of glittering beauty. "Any more earrings to bring?" says Aaron. None. Fire is kindled; the earrings are melted and poured into a mold, not cf an eagle or of a war charger, but of a calf, the | gold cools off; the mold is taken away; and the idol is set up on its four legs. An altar is built in front of the shin ing calf. Then the people throw up their arms and gyrate, and shriek, and dance mightily, and worship. Moses has been six weeks on Mount Sinai, and he comes back and hears the howling and sees the dancing of these golden calf fanatics, and he loses his patience, and he takes the two plates of stones on which were written the Ten Commandments and flings them so hard against a rock that tht.y split all to pieces. When%i man gets mad he is very apt to bxfeak all the Ten Com mandi ments! Moses rushes in and he takes [thiscalfigod and he throws it into a ^^otil it is melted all out of feMjMfejra^-not by pot drink all the glittering Rwn on the surface. Some lips on down the surface of ft to the river, and then flows ... the nver to the sea, ana tne H Hs it up and bears it to the mouth of all the rivers, and when the tides sets back, the remains of j this golden calf are carried up into the Hudson, and the East rivers, and the Thames, and the Clyde, and the j Tiber, and men go out and they skim the glittering surface, and they bring it ashore and they make another golden calf, and California and Aus ' tralia break off their golden eanings H^^Ugment.the pile, and in the fires | IPT fanaticaT^fitemeutAnd struggle all these things are melted together, and while we stand looking and won dering what will come of it, lo! we ! find that the golden calf of Israel j itisli worship has become the golden calf of European and American worship. I shall describe to you the god spoken of in the text, his temple, his j altar of sacrifice, the music that is made in his temple, and then the j final breaking up of the whole con- j gregation of idolaters. Put aside the curtain and you see the golden calf of modern idolatry. It is not like other idols, made out of stocks and stones, but it has an ear j so sensative that it can hear the whispers on Wall street and Third street, and the foot falls in the Bank of England, and the flutter of a Frenchman's heart on the Bourse. It i has an eye so keen that it can see the rust on the farm of Michigan wheat and the insect iu the Maryland peach orchard, and the trampled grain under the hoof of the Russian war charger. It is so mighty that it swings any way it will the world's shipping.- It lias its foot on all the merchantmen and the steamers. It started the American civil war, and under God stopped it, and it decided the Turko-Kussian contest. One broker in September, 1869, in New York, shouted: "One hundred and sixty for a milliou!" and the whole continent shivered. This golden calf of the text Las its right front foot in New York, its left front fnnf in ('hifacn. it= riSht back foot ill I Charleston, its left hack foot in New I Orleans, and when it shakes itself it I shakes the world. Oh! this is a | mighty god?the golden calf of the world's worship. But every god must have its temple, and this golden calf of the test * I is no exception. Its temple is vaster than St Paul's of the English, and St. Peter's of the Italians, and the | Alhambra of the Spaniards, and the i Parthenon of the Greeks, and the I Taj Mahal of Hindoos, and all the the other cathedrals put together. Its pillars are grooved and fluted with gold, and its ribbed arches are hove.ing gold, and its chandliers are descending gold, and its floors are tesselated gold, and its vaults are crowded heaps of gold, and its spires and domes are soaring gold, and its organ pipes are resounding gold, and its pedals are tramping gold, and its stops pulled out are flashing gold, while standing at the head of the temple, as the presiding deity, are she hoofs, and shoulders, and eyes, and ears, and nostrils of the calf of gold. Further: Every god must have not | only its temple, but its altar of sac| rifice, and this golden calf of the text is 110 exception. Its altar is not made out of stone as other altars, ? m . -11 1 I | bat out or counting room ciesKs anu j fire proof safes, and it is a broad, a long, a high altar. The victims sacrificed on it are innumerable. "What does this god care about the groans aud struggles of the victims before it? "With cold, metallic eye, it looks and yet lets them suffer. Oh! heaven and earth, what an altar! what a sacrifice of body, mind and soul? The physical health of a greal multitude is flung on this sacrificial altar. They cannot, sleep and they take chloral and morphine and intoxicants. Some of tliera are struggle in a nightmare of stocks, and at 1 o'clock in the morning suddenly rise up shouting: "A thousand shares of railroad stock? one hundred and eight and a half! take it!'' until the whole family is affrighted, and the speculators fall ; back on their pillows and sleep until they are awakened again by a "corner," or a "sudden "rise" in something else. Their nerves gone, their 1 digestion gone, their brain gone, 1 they die. The clergyman comes in and reads the funeral services: 1 you will Lave to let him go; but he puts his wife and children in an equipage that is the amazement of the avenues, and the driver lashes the horses into two whirlwinds, and the spokes flash in the sun, and the golden headgear of the harness gleams, until Blank Calamity takes the bits of the horses and stops them, and shouts to the luxurious occupants of the equipage: "Get out!" They get out. They get down. HPKrtJ- U? ?/I OVN/-J flinr flnr?nr lnu mat uuouaiiu auu laiucx uuu^ uxu family so hard that they never got up again. There was the mark on them for life?the mark of the split hoof?the death dealing hoof of the golden calf. But, my frieuas, every day is a day | of judgment, and God is all the time I grinding to "pieces the golden culfMerchants of Brooklyn and New | York and London, what is the characteristic of this time in which we live? ''Bad," you say. Professional I men wl}at is the characteristic of the I times in which we live? ''Bail," you say. Though I should be in a minorI ity of one, I ventue the opinion that these are the best times we have had for the reason that God is teaching the world, as never before that, old fashioned honesty is the only thing that will stand. TVe have learned as never before that forgeries will not pay; that the spending of fifty thousand dollars on country seats and : a palatial city residence, when there are only thirty thousand dollars income, will not pay; that the appropriation of trust funds to our own private speculation will not pay. "We had a national tumor, in the shape of fictitious prosperity. "We called it national enlargement; instead of call' ing it enlargement, we might better I have called n a swelling. It has been a tumor, and God is cutting?has cut it out, and the nation will get well and will come back to the prin| ciple3 of our fathers and grand! fathers when twice three made six | iustead of sixty, and when the apples at the bottom of the barrel were just as good as the apples on the top of the barrel, and a silk handkerchief, was not half cotton, and a man who j wore a five dollar coat paid for was i more honored than a nian who wore | a fifty dollar coat not paid for. ; The golden calf of our day. like i the one of the test, is very apt to be ; made out of borrowed gold. These I Jsreafites of the text borrowed the I earrings of the Egyptians and then j melted them into a god. That is the way the golden calf is made nowadays. A great many housekeepers, not paying for the articles they get, borrow of the grocer and the baker, and the butcher, and the dry goods seller. Then the retaiier borrows of the wholesale dealer. Then the wholesale dealer borrows of the capitalists, and we borrow, and borrow until the community is divided into two classes, those who borrow and those who are borrowed of; and after awhile the capitalist wants his money and he rushes upon the wholesale dealer, and the wholesale dealer wants his money and he rushes upon the retailer, and the retailer wants his money and he rashes upon the consumer, and we all go down# together. There is many a man in this day who rides in a carriage and owes the blacksmith for the tire, and the wheelright for the wheel, and the trimmer for the curtain, and the driver for unpaid wages, and the harnessmaker for the bridle, and the furrier for the robe, while from the tip of the carriage tongue clear back to the tip of the shawl fluttering out of the back of the vehicle, everything is paid for by notes that have been tnree times renewed. It is this temptation to borrow, and borrow, and borrow, that keeps the people everlastingly praying to the golden calf for help, and just at the minute they expect the help the golden calf treads on them. The judgments of Grod, like Moses in the text, will rush in and break up this worship; and I say, let the work go on until every man shall learn to speak the truth with his neighbor, and those who make engagements snail teel tnemselves Douna to Keep them, and when a man will not repent of his business iniquity but goes on wishing to satisfy his cannibal appetite by devonring widow's houses, shall by the law of the land be compelled to exchange his mansion for Sing Sing. Let the golden calf perish. But, my friends, if we have made tlys world our god, when we come to perhaps, take $500 with you two or three miles, in the shape of funeral trappings, to Greenwood, but you will have to - leave them there. It . v would not be safe .for you to lie down there with a gold watch or a diamoud ring; it would be a temptation to the pillagers. Ah, my friends, if we have made this world our god, wbeo we die we will see our idol ground to pieces by our pillow, and we will have to drink it in bitter regrets for the wasted opportunities of a life time. Soon we will be gone. 0! this is a fleeting world, it is a dying world. A man who had worshiped it all his days, in his dying moment described himself when he said: "Fool! fool! fool!" I want you to change temples and to give up the worship of this unsat . ? i i ? ;i xi. _ . lsiyiug unci ciuei gou ior rue service of the Lord Jesus Christ. Here is the gold that will never crumble. Here are the securities that will never fail. Here are banks that will never break. Here is an altar on which there has been one sacrifice once for all. Here is a God who will comfort you when you are in trouble and soothe you when you are gick, and save when you die. When your parents ha?e breathed theit last, and the old, wrinkled and trembling hands can no more be put upon your head for a blessing, he will be to you father and mother both, giving you the defence pf one and the comfort of the other: and when your childrop go away from you, the sweet darlings, you will not kiss them good-bye forever. He will give them back to you again* and he will have them waiting for you at the gates of eternal welcome. Oh! what a God he is! He will allow you te come so ciose this morning that you can put your arms around bis neck while he in response will put his arm around your neck, and all the windows of heaven * will be hoisted to let the redeemed look out and see the spactacle of a rejoicing father and a returned prodigal locked in glorious embrace. Quit worshiping the golden calf, and bow this day before him in whose presence we must all appear when the world has turned to ashes and the scorched parchment of the sky shall be rolled together like a historical scroll.

Atlanta Constitution. "When will this -thing stop? I am not calm and serene. It is not PridflV }?nt. it. lrvnlra litre ev<. wtliirxv ? j ? ? -w?" has got wrong side up. I bought the children some faucjT chickens from Will Henderson?beautiful Langshaik whose forefathers and mothers were all the way from Asia. They laid fourteen eggs?large, i beautiful eggs?and the hens were happy, and the children, too. But, j alas for human hopes and Langshan j eggs! Itfv wife told me not loug ago j that we ought to have a pig, a nice, | clean little pig, to eat up the waste : and scraps and all the et cetera and i so forthj and she mentioned that! neighbor Freeman had one that cost only a dollar a few months ago, and grown and flourished until it weighed 200 pounds, and he sold it for twelve dollars and gave his wife the money, and he bod bought another pig to do the same thing over, and it was mat ter of economy, and so I bought a sweot little pig, and it was kept in the cow lot, and Carl made a trough and it swallowed in the buttermilk and was behavincr splendid until last w a. night, somebody left the gate open j and the sweet little spotted thing came out meandered around and found the hens' nests and gobbled up the whole concern and wanted more. It made the children right sick, and they wanted to kill the pig, and about that time I came out to my favorite seat in the front piazza, to ruminate upon the rise and fall of sublunary things, when suddenly I missed the beauti-1 ful vines that had been meandering ; up the cane lattice that I had buiit. Oh! my country. One day while Mrs. Arp was gone I built that lattice to -surprise her^mdivevive the smiling e7e^' ^ a ~lr%fy can el pBR^H^^^ffand were spreading their leaves anWlosing out the sunlight; and I had left little openings along for windows so that we. could peep through and see who was passing aloDg the street, or who was coming up the avenue to see us, and most every day I bet with the children which vine would grow the fastest next morning, and here it is. Oh, my country, the calf got out when the pig did, and while the pig was feeding on Langshan eggs at two dollars a dozen, the infernal calf was stuffing his maw with madeira vines and morning glories, and then Ti'onf /vflf on/1 laid rinr^f in mir M VUf V/XX U4U XLMXK.K V4V " ? Vi-J. sight, and was chewing her cud, a cud made of the vines that were our hope and our delight. When will this thing stop? I ripped and I raved, and I walked the piazza backwards and forwards and put 011 all the agony I could raise. I confounded the calf and the gate and the unknown individual who left it open. I knew that Mrs. Arp would find out from the children what was the matter, and so I wanted to out Herod and steal her thunder, for she is a prudent woman and never gets on a tare when she sees me on a tare. And that's right. When Mrs. Arp J is on a tare I am as meek as $ l^mb- j It is like playing seasaw, when one is up the other is down, though some j times I think I don't get my share of high riding. But I rode high this morning and the next thing I heard was Mrs. Arp at the piano and she was playing Araby's daughter, j and her low sweet notes came over j me like the sweet soyth wind breath I ing upon a bank of violets. By the time the breakfast bell rang I had mellowed down smartly and Mrs. Arp said she thought that the vines I wqulqQ't Jose more than two weeks but that I had better send the calf to the country. It does look like there is always something to prey upon something. The bad is mixed up with the good and we have to fight the battle of life through tribulation and vexation and aggravation and all the operations. After breakfast I had to go to town and help to work on the citizens to raise money enough to buy the laud for the railroad shops. The committees had bepn working on them for three days and had a whooper up meeting every nig lit, j and still were short about a thou- j sand cJoUftrs, and the committee gut , siplf and went to bed, and had me j ppt on a new committee as a relay? | a sort qf last resort and it was the hardest work I ever done or will try ! to do again. I bad rather stand up l hill and grub downwards, or dig j post holes, or weed onions, or skin a j cat backwards all day long, i It take so much explanation and exaggeration?so much persuasion and evasion, and the whole thing is j so monotonous, and every man has | to be talked to as gently as a sucking dove?but after a while they sur render and put down for about half tbey ought to. aud you heave a sigh and go on to the next man. ''They are asking too much for that land and mv money shan't go into no such an extortion. When will Col. Ball build the shops? "What kind of shops is he going to build? What does he want with so much land? No, sir, I'm not going to be fooled again. I ain't forgot that furnace yet that swindled us out of our money. What's become of them furnace r..ii ? t iciiuno: x ji/ut ihcui?j*u?d uunui a in a car factory once and Bill Noble came up here and toted it off to Anniston right before our eyes. Don't you recoc this is all a trick of the land company. If I wasn't afraid them shop fellows would vote whisky back into this town I would subscribe. The shops ain't going to help any business at all, for more people will bring more stores and the new set will cut under and get what trade ! have o-ot. Col. Bail is u going to put the shops here anyhow, and I knew it. His railroad folks are those rich bond holders in New York, and I say let them buy their own land." One by one they would take the list and look over every name one it and talk about this man and that man, and it would take from ten minutes to half an hour to get through with a man, but we generally got something before we left. One man from whom we didn't expect a cent, spoke up promptly and said, yes, I will give you fift^^bllars, and he treated us to cigars^Hkhe,, barbun. Another man from whom ^^^^fc^undred gave us twenty MBBnbM. u^Jy^Jquili have succeeded it. tftk(i? the same kind of work every month to collect the monthly dues. I Our deacon is a plasterer and works hard at his trade, but he has to lose about three days in a month begging the members of the church to pay their dues. But all this work and patience and forbearance must be endured for the good results that are to come. The good is more than the bad, and I feel easy and grateful now except for the calf and the pig. "When I think of them I go out iu the garden and pick a bowl of strawberries and put some sugar and cream all over them and take them to Mrs. Arp and that satisfies me.
