THE DOTENSE COST. DR. TALMAGE SPEAKS OF THE PRICE OF SALVATION. .The Fop ular Preacher I? Cordially Re ceived In England-He Addresses ali Immense Congregation in London-The Cost of Our -Mansion In Heaven. LONDON, June 26.-An enormous au dience greeted Dr. Tannage in this city today, composed of people who had come from all parts of the British metropolis to hear the famous American preacher. His reception in England has been most enthusiastic. Many letters were await ing him from different cities eagerly pleading for a visit. The doctor will hav? to preach five or six times a week if he accepts even a small percentage of the urgent invitations already sent to him. He is very much gratified by the extreme cordiality of his reception. Dr. Talrnage entitles his sermon "The Immense Cost." from the text, I Corinthians vi, 20, "Ye .are bought with a price." Your frieud takes you through his valuable house. You examine the arches, the frescoes, g^assplots, the fishponds, the conservatories, the parks of deer, and you say within yourself <>r you say aloud, "What did all This cost?" You see a costly diamond flash ing in an earring, or you hear a costly dress rustling across the drawing room, or you see a high mettled span of horses harnessed with silver and gold, and you begin to make an estimate of the value. The man who owns large estate can not instantly tell you di it is worth. He says, "I will estimate so much for the house, so much for the furniture, so niueh for laying -.nit the grounds, su much for the stock, so much for the barn, so much for the equipage-adding np in all making this aggregate." Well, my friends, 1 hear so much about our mansion in heaven, about its furniture and the grand surround:::,'-, that I want to know how much it is all worth and what>has actually been paid for it. I cannot complete in a monti: n^r a year the magnificent calculation, but l>efore I get through today I hope : > give yon the figures. "Ye are bought with a pri?e. " With some friends I went to your Tower to look at the crown jewels. We walked around, caught one glimpse of them, and being in the procession were compelled to ??ass ont I wish that 1 could take this audience into the tower of God's mercy and strength, th*t you might walk around just once at least, and see the crown jewels of eternity, behold their brilliance and estimate their value. "Ye are bought with a prict." THE INSTALLMENT PI.AN. Now if you have a large a mount of money to pay, yon do not p.-. it all at once, but you pay it bv installments-? . much the first of January. s<> much the first of April, so much the first of July, so much the first of October, until the entire amount is paid, and I have to tell this audience that "yon have been bought with a ??rice," and that that price was paid in different installments. The first installment paid for ;he clearance of our souls was the igno minious birth of Christ in Bethlehem. Though we may never be carefully looked after afterward, our advent into the world is carefully guarded. We come into the world amid kindly at tentions. Privacy and silence are af forded when God launches an immortal 6oul into the world. Even the roughest of men know enough to stand back. But I have to tell you . .?: t in the vil lage on the side of the hill there was a very bedlam of uproar when Jesus was t>oru. In a village capable of accommodating only a few hundred ?veople many thou sand people were crowded, and amid hostlers and muleteers and camel driv ers yelling at stupid beasts of burden the Messiaii appeared. No silence. No privacy. A better adapted place hath the eaglet in the eyri*?-hath the whelp in the lion's lair. The exile of heaven beth down upon straw. The first night out from the palace of heaven s?>ent iu an outhouse! One hour after laying aside the roln-s of heaven, dressed tn a wrapper Of coarse linen. One would have supposed that Christ would haye made a more gradual descent, coming from heaven first to a half way world of great magnitude, then to Ca-sar's pal ace, then to a merchant's castle in Gali lee, then to a private home in Bethany, then to a fisherman^ hut, and last of all to a stable. No! It was one leap from the top to the bottom. Let us open the door of the caravan sary in Bethlehem and drive away the camels. Press on through the group of idlers and loungers. What, oh, Mary! no light? "No light," she says, "save that which comes through the door." What, Mary! no food? "None." she says, "only that which was brought in the sack on the journey." Let the Beth lehem woman who has come in here with kindly attentions put back the cov ering from the babe that w? may ?wk upon it. Look! Look! Uncover y mr head. Let us kneel. Let all voices be hushed. Son of Mary! Son of God! Child of a day-monarch of eternity! In that eye the glance of a God. Om nipotence sheathed in that babe's ann. That voice to be chang?e! fr?-m t lie fee ble plaint to the tone that shall wake the dead. Hosanna! Hosanna! Glory be to God that Jesus ? ame from throne to manger that we might rise from manger to throne, and that all the gates are oj>en, and that the door of heaven that once swung this way to let Jesus out now swings the other way to let ns in. Let all the bellmen of heaven lay hold the r->pe and ring out the news, "Behold, I bring you glad tidings of great joy. which shall be to all people; for today is L< ?rn in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord!" BATTLING THE EVIL SPIRIT. Thesecond installment paid for our 60ul"s clearance was the scene in Qnar antania, a mountainous region full of caverns, where there are to this ?lay panther* and wild beasts of all sorts, so that you must, go there armed with knife or gun or pistol. It was there that Jesus went to think and to pray, and it was there that this monster of hell-more sly, more terrific than any thing that i rowled in that country satan himself, met Christ. The rose in the cheek of Christ-that Publius LentuUus, in his letter to the Roman senate, ascribed to Jesus-that rose had scattered its petals. Al ?stinence from food had thrown him into emacia tion. A long abstinence from food re corded in profane history is that of the crew of the ship Juno; for twenty-three foys they had nothing to eat But tins sufferer had fasted a month and ten days before he br< >ke fast Hunger must have agonized every fiber of the body and gnawed on the stomach with teeth of death. The thought of a morsel of bread or meat must have thrilled the body with something like ferocity. Turn out a pack of men hungry as Christ was a-hungered. and if they had strength, with one yell they would de vour you as a lion a kid. It was in that pang of hunger that Jesus was accosted and satan said, "Now change these stones, which look like bread, into an actual supply of bread." Had the temptation come to you and me, under those circumstances we would have cried, "Bread it shall bef' and been almost impatient at the time taken for mastication; but ?Christ with one hand beat back the hunger, and with the other hand beat back the monarch of darkness. Oh, ye tempted . ones! Christ was tempted. We are , told that Napoleon ordered a coat of mail made, but he was not quite certain that it was impenetrable, so he said to the manufacturer of the coat of mail, "Put it on yourself and let us try it," '?od with shot after shot from his own pistol the emperor found out that it was just what it pretended tobe-a good coat of maiL Then the man received a large reward. I otfss God that the. same coat of mai; toar strack back the weapons of te tiou from the head of Chris: wt now all wear: for Jesus comes and "I have been tempted and I know it is tol>e tempted. Take this rob defended me and wear it for yours I shall see you through all trials shall see you through all temptatii '.But," says satan still furth? Jesus, "come and I will show you thing worth looking at;" and al half day's journey they came to J< lem and to the top of the temple, as one might go up in the tower of werp and look off upon Belgitn satan brought Christ tc the top c temple. Some people at a great h feel dizzy and a strang? disposith jump; so satan comes to Christ in very crisis. Standing there at tl of the temple they looked off. A nificent reach of country. Grain f vineyards, olive groves, forests streams, cattle in the valley, floe! the hills, and villages and cities realms. "Now," says satan, "I'll make a gain. Just jump off. I know it great way from the top of the te to the valley, but if you are di vint can fly. Jump off. It won't hurt Angels will catch yon. Your F; will hold you. Besides, PU make 3 large present if you will. PU giv( Asia. Minor.

TRIVMrH OVr.R TEMPTATION. Go tomorrow morning and get i altercation wita some wretch craw up from a gin cellar in the lowest of your city. "No," you say, "I w not bemean myself by getting into : a contest." Then think of what king of heaven and earth endured v he came down and fought '^e y wretch of hell, and fought him ir wilderness and on top of the fen But I bless God that in the triumph temptation Christ gives us the at ance that we also shall triumph. 1 iug himself been tempted, he is abi succor all those who are tempted. In a violent storm at v?a the mate a boy-for the rigging had become tangled at the mast-to go ap aud r it. A gentleman standing on the c said, "Don't send that boy np; he be dashed to death." The mate sail know what I am about." Thc raised bis hat in recognition of the 01 and then rose hand over hand and ? to work; and as he swung in the st< the p?ssengers wrung their hands expected to see him fall. Thc w done he came down in safety, an Christian man said to him, "Why you go down in the forecastle before went up?" "Ah!" said the boy. "I w down to pray. My mother alw taught nie before I undertook anyth great to pray." "What isthat you h in your vest?" said the man. "Oh, t is the New Testament," he said; thought I would carry it with mei really did go overboard." How v the boy was protected! I care not how great the height how vast the depth, with Christ wit us and Christ beneath us and Ch: above us and Christ all around us no ing can befall us in the way of ha: Christ himself haring been in the t? pest will deliver all those who put th trust in him. Blessed l?e his glori? name forever. The third installment paid for our deinptJon was the Saviour's sham tri I call it a sham trial-there has liei been anything so indecent or unfair any criminal court as was witnessed the trial of Christ. Why, they bust] him into the courtroom at two o'clc in the m- truing. They gaye him no th for counsel. Tiley gave him no opp' tunity for subpoenaing witnesses. T ruffians who were wandering aron through the midnight, of course th saw the arrest and went into the cou room. But Jesus' friends were sol men, were respectable men, and at th hour, two o'clock in the morning, course they were at home asleep. Cc sentiently Christ entered the courtroc with the ruffians. OL, look at him! No one to epe?k word for him. I lift the lantern unti can look into bis face, and as my bea beats in sympathy for this, the be friend the world ever had. himself no utterly friendless, an officer of the coui room comes up and smites him in tl mouth, and I see the blood stealing fro gum and lip. Oh! it was a farce of trial. lasting only perhaps an hour, ai then the judge rises for sentence. St<> It is against the law to give senten< unless there has been an adjournment 1 rh?- c>urt between condemnation ax sentence; but what cares the judge fi the iaw? "The man has no friends-lt him die," says the judge; and the ru flans outside the rail cry: "Aha! ah that's what we want! Pass him 01 here to us! Away with him! Aw? with him!" A DIVINE SYMPATHIZER. Oh! I bless Goil that amid all the ii justice that may have l>e?.n inflicted upo us in this \v..rld we have adivine syn pathizer. The world cannot lie shot y< >u nor abus- you as much as they di Christ, and Jesus stan ls today in ever courtroom, in every house, in ever stor<-, and says: "Courage! By all m hours of maltreatment and abuse, 1 wi protect those who are trampled upon. And when Christ forg< ts that two o*cl< ?C morning scene, and the stroke of th ruffian on the month, and the howlin of the unwashed crowd, then he wi forget yon and me in the injustices c life that may l>e inflicted upon us. Further, I remark: The last great in staUment paid for our redemption wa tile demise of Christ. The world ha seen many dark days. Many summer ago there was a very lark day, whei the sun was eclipsed. The fowl at noon day went to their perch, and we felt : gloom as we looked at the astron?mica wonder. It was a dark day in Londoi when the plague was at its height.and thc dead with uncovered faces were taker in open carts and dumped in th( trenches. It was a dark day when th? earth opened and Lisbon sank; but th? darkest day since the creation of tin world was when the carnage of Calvan was enacted. It was about noon when the curtain began to 1* drawn. It was not the com ing or of a night that soothes and re freshes; it was t:.e c winging of a great gloom all around the heavens. God hung it. As when there is a dead one in the house you bow the shutters or turn the lattice, so God in the afternoon shut the windows of the world. As it is appropriate to throw a black pall upon the coffin as it passes along, so it was appro priate that everything should be somber that day as the great hearse of the earth rolled on bearing the corpse of the king. A man's lc^t hours are ordinarily kept sacred. However you may have hated or caricatured a man, when you hear be is dying silence puts its hand on your lips, and ron would have a loathing for the man wdio could stand by a deathbed making faces and scoffing. But Christ in his last hour cannot be left alone. What! pursuing bim yet after so long a pursuit? You have been drinking his tears. Do you want to drink his blood? They come up closely, so that notwith standing the darkness they can glut their revenge with the contortions ol his countenance. They examine his '.eek They want to feel for themselves wb ether those feet are really spiked. Tbey*ppt out their hands and touch th'-- spikes, and bring them back wet with blood, I and wipe them on .their garments. Women stand there and weep, but can do no good. It is no place for the *en .der "hearted women. It wants a heart that crime has turr.<?. into granite. The waves of man's hatred and of hells vengeance dash up against the mangled feet, and the hands off sin and pain and torture clutch for his holy heart. Had he not been thoroughly fastened to the cross they would hare torn him down and trampled him with both feet How the cavalry horses arched their necks and champed their bits and reared and snuffed at the blood! Had a Roman officer, called out for a Ijght, his voice would not have been beard in the tnmuit; but louder than the clash of spears and the wailing of womanhood, and the neighing of the '.bargers, and the bellowing of the cru cifyers there comes a voice crashing through-loud, clear, overwhelming, terrific. It is the groaning of the dying .son of God! Look! what a scene! Look, world, at what you have done!' I lift the covering from the maltreat ed Christ to let you c ~at the wounds and estimate the cost. Oh! when the nails went through Christ's right hand and through Christ's left hand, that bought both your hands, with all their power to work and lift and write; when the nails went through Christ's right foot and Christ's left foot, that bought your feet, with all their power to walk or run or climb; when the thorn went into Christ's temple, that bought your brain, with all its power to think and plan; when the spear left Christ's side, that bought your heart, with all its power to love and repent and pray. AVPEA.L TO SINNERS. O sinner, come, come back! If a mau is in no pain, if he is prospered, if he is well, and he asks you to come, you take your time and you say: "I can't come now. I'll come after awhile. There is no haste." But if he is in want and trouble you say: "I must go right away. I must go now." Today Jesus stretches out before you two wounded hands, and he begs you to come. Go and you live. Stay away and you die. Oh, that to him who bought us we might give all our time and all our prayers and all our successes! I would we could think of nothing else, but come to Christ. He is so fair. He is so loving. He is so sym pathizing. He is so good. I wish we could put our arms around his neck and say, "Thine, Lord, will I be forever." Oh, that you would begin to love him! Would that I could take this audience a.id wreathe it around the heart of my Lord Jesus Christ. When the Atlantic cable was lost, in 1865, do you remember that the Great Eastern, and the Medway, and the Al bany went out to find it? Thirty times they sank the grapnel two and a half miles deep in water. After awhile they found the cable and brought it to the surface. No sooner had it been brought to tho surface than they lifted a shout of exultation, but the cable slipped back again into the water and was lost. Then for two weeks more they swept the sea with the grappling hooks, and at last they found thc cable and they oronght it up in silence. They fastened it this time. Then with groat excitement they took one end of the cable to the elec trician's room to see if there were really any life in it. and when they saw a spark and knew that a message could IK> sent, then every hat was lifted, and the rockets flew, and the guns sounded, until all the vessels on the expedition knew the work was ?lone and the continents were lashed together. Well, my friends. Sabbath after Sab bath Gospel messengers have come searching down for your souls. Wc have swept the sea with the grappling hook of Christ's Gospel. Again and again we have thought that you were at the surface, and we began to rejoice over your redemption, but at the mo ment of our gladness you sank back again into the world and back again into sin. Today we come with this Gos pel searching for your soul. We apply the cross of Christ first to see whether there is any life left in you. while all around the people stand, looking to see whether tho work will be done, and the angels of God bend down and witness; and oh! if now we could see only one spark of love and hope ind faith, we would send upa shout that would be heard on the battlements of heaven, and two worlds would keep jubilee because communication is op^n between Christ and the soul. an?1, your nature that has been sunken in sin lias been lifted into the light and the joy of J he Gospel Volite UH ? J-'iro Extinguisher. Vulite is a chemical compound, the invention of Max Eberhardt, of Lin .-rue. and is stated to be nine times more ef fective than ordinary water in extin guishing fire, and among its other qual ities possesses the remarkable faculty of rendering individuals virtually fireproof. The impunity with which the exhibitors approached great masses of f?ame, and appeared to be almost as if in their na tive element, was not tho least remark able feature of a display. With the hands dipped in this solution burning materials maybe manipulated with per fect safetv. The first experiment was supposed to represent the upsetting of a paraffine lamp, the oil flowing in a stream over the tablecloth ard immedi ately blazing up in a furious flame. By simply passing the hands over the burn ing cloth this flame was speedily extin guished, although the table itself had caught fire, and the exhibitor appeared to be in no little danger. In the next place a mass of pitch in a small pit was ignited and allowed to get thoroughly alight, thc smoke and flames rising up in volumes. The application of two buckets of vulite had an almost magical effect, the flames dying down at once, while not only the fire but even the heat arising therefrom entirely dis appeared. The sam? result followed in the case of a mass ot burning rosin, which, blazing np furiously, was in stantaneously extinguished by a bucket ful of the vulite.-New York Telegram.

This noc turnal prowler had been making requi sitions on his duck pen, so he set two steel traps for his owlship and suc ceeded in capturing him. The trap was tied with fifteen feet of rope, and in his desperate attempts to fly away with it the owl had knocked several rails off the fence.

And now a report is received from an Italian, Dr. Leo Tra versi, upon a terrible desolation wrought by famine in Shoa, the territory of King Menelek II in Abyssinia. Prices ara very high, a chicken, for instance, being as high in price as a calf is in normal times. The military expeditions in which Hing Menelek is engaged all the time have for months past all ended in disaster because the men died in crowds from starvation.

A City of Pigmle?. In a quaint old geography which I once had the good fortune to own, the western coast of South America was decorated with tiny figures of men and women, among whom meandered the words, "The Land of the Pigmies." More modern maps make no mention of such people, and I had forgotten that 1 ever believed in their existence, when I happened lately to come upon them again. A few months ago, perched on the summit of one of the highest of the Peruvian Andes, were discovered the ruins of a wonderful pigmy city, the home of a race of dwarfs, and some of its most interesting relics-all that were transportable-are now on their way northward, to find a resting place in our national museum at the Smithsonian institution in Washington. From these discoveries it appears that the old belief in a tiny race inhabiting the lowlands on the Pacific coast was well founded.
