Tho railroad company sued out a writ of error and curried tho oaso to tho supreme court of tho United Statos.

Tho two olergymon puss out freo, Tho jail keeper, ulihougli famlliur with tim darkness und tho horrors hovorlin/ around tho dungeon, ls startled bayoud ail bounds, and ilutnbeuu in hand ho rushes tlirotiich, amid tho fulling walls, shouting al the lop or his voice, "Sirs, what must 1 do to ho saved?" I stund now unions; thoso who aro ns!clng tho same question willi moro or leas earnest ness, und I uccost you in this orisls of your soul with u message from heaven. Thoro ar? thoso in this audience who might bo more skillful in argument than I am; thoro arc those hero who can dive into deeper depths ?j" science or havo larger knowlodgo; tiler? aro ia lids audience I hose before whom I would willingly bow us tho inferior to the .superior, bul 1 yield to no ono In this lissom binge tn a desire to have all tho people savod by the pbw?r of nu omnipotent gospel. I shall proceed to eharactorir.o tho ques tion of tue agitated juli keoper. And drat I ehuriiclerlzo the question as courteous. Il? night have rushed la and Jjtldj "Paul jarid Ulla?, yotrViigabonsts,'aro you touring down this prison? Aren't you ?ut?siled with dis turbing tho pence of tho oily by your in famous doctrines? And are you now gotng to destroy public property? Ulick with von to your places, you vagabonds!" Ho said no snob thing. The word of four loiters, "sirs," oqiilvnlout to "lords," recognized tho maj esty und tho honor of their mission. Bira! If a man with a captious spirit trieste find tho way to heaven, he will miss it. If a man comes out and pronounces all Christians us hypocrites a lid tho religion of Jesus Christ ai a fraud and asks irritating questions about tho mysterious and inscrutable, saying, "Come, my wiso mun, oxplulu this und ex plain that j if this be tine, how can that bc Irue?" no such man linds tho way to hoavou. The question of the text was docent, cour teous, genii .manly, deferential. Sirs! Again, I characterize this question ot tho agitated jail keeper by saying that it was a practical nUostloii, ile did not tis'.c why God let sin come into tho world; he did not ask how Christ could be God und man in tho same person; llb did not ask the doctrine of the decrees explained or want to know whom Cain married or what was tho cause of tho earthquake. His present and everlusting welfare was Involved in the question, nud was not thal practical? Dut I know multi tudes of people who uro bothering tlitm selVt-s about tue nonessentials of religion. What would you think of a mau who should, while discussing the question of tho light and heal of the sun, spend his (imo down in ii ?eal cellar when ho might come out und see the one ami feel tho other? Yet there mo mulliiiides of men who, in discussing the chemistry of lim gospel, spend their time down in the dungeon of their uuboliot when Clod all the whlleslands tellinglliotii to como out lalo tho noonday light and warmth of Ibo sun of righteousness. Tho question for you, my bro thor, to discuss is not whether Calvin or Arminius was right, not whether a handful of water in holy baptism ora bap tistery is tho better, not whether foroordt llililoa mid free agency can bo harmonized. Tho practical question for you todiseuss und for me lo discuss is, "Whore will I spouil eternity?" Again. I characterize this question of tho agitated jail keeper as ono personal lo him self, I have no doubt he ha I ninny friends, und he was interested in tholr welfare. 1 have no doubt he found that thoro were per sons in (h it prison who, if tho earthquake hud destroyed thom, would have found their ease desperate. Ile is not questioning about thom. Tho whole weight of his question turns on Hie pronoun "I." "Wliul shall I do?" Of cou iso when u man becomes a Christian he immediately bocomos anxious for (he salvation o' o tiler people, but until that point is ?vuoiod tho most important question is about your own salvation, "What is to bo my destiny?" "What aro my prospects for the future?" "YVhoro am I go ing?" "What shall J. do?" The trouble is wo shuffle the responsibility ofi upon ollie*"?. We prophesy a b id ead to flint i'lebriato, and terrille exposure to t'nul dol'aulter, and aw ful ontiisl replie to that pro ll (gate. We uro so busy in weighing other pcoplo wo forgot ourselves tb, got Itiio tito scales. Wo ure so busy watching the poor gurdous of other people that we let our own dooryard go to weeds. We ure so busy sending off other people into tho lifeboat we sink in tho wave. Wo cry "iiio" because our neigh bor's house is burning down mid soem tn bo lillhitur?stod although our own houso is lu (ho conflagration. Oh. wandering Mtouirhts. disappear to-dnvl Wot out this ont: oaudience except yourself. Your sin. is it pardoned? Your death, is it provided /or? Your heaven, is it secured? A mightier oarthquauo th in Unit which demolished tho Pilllippiun pondr.iiliary will rumble about your oars. The foundations ot tho earth will give way. The earth by one tremor will ?ling ail th? American cities Into tho dust. Cathedrals mri palaces and prisons whioli have stood for thousands of years will top ple like tl child's bloekhoiiso. The surges of the sea will submerge tho lund and tho At lantic nilli Pac lil ; Oooans abovo tho Alps ami Ibo Amies chip their hands. What then will become of me? What thou will becomo of you? I dp liol wonder at tho anxiety of this limn o.i' my text, for be was not only anxious about the fulling of tho prison, but tho fall ing of a world. Again, I remark, ? ohnraotorizo this quos lion of (he iigitlltO.I jail keeper as one of in comparable importance. Mon aro alike, and f suppose ho had scores of questions on his mind, but all questions for this world uro hushed up, lorgotton, nunihilntod in tlits ono question of tho text! "What must I do to be saved?" And have you, my brother, (Hiv question of importation compared with Illili question? Is it a question of biistncsH? Your common sense tolls you that you will soon cease worldly business. You kU0W Yory Well that yon will soon puss out of that part nership. You know that, boyoad a certain point, of nil tho millions of dollars' worth of gnodssoldyou will not llanillo a yard of dolli, or a pound of sugar, or a penny's worth. After thal, If a conflagration should sweep all Washington into ashes, it would HOI touch you, and would not damage you. If every cashier should ub VJpnil and every bunk suspend payment and e/ory Insurance company fall, it would not affect you. Oh, how insignificant is .busi ness this sido tho grave with business on (ho other side tho grsvoj Havo you made any purchases for eternity? Have you any secu rities that will last forovor? Aro you job bing for time when you might bo wholesal ing for ol ernity? Is thorn any question HO broad at tho huso, so altitudlnous, so over shadowing as thu quostlon, ''What must Ido tc 5;o savon?" Or, ls it a domestic question, ls it something about father or mother or husband or wife orson or dnughtor that is Ino more Important quent ion? You know hy universal and inoxorablo law that relation will soon be broken up. I-'athor will bo gone, mother will bo gone, children will bo gone, you will be gone, but after that tl.oquestion of Ibo text will bugin lo harvest hs chlo! gains or dopioro ita worst I09?cs or ron up ns mightiest magnitude or sweop its vaster ol roles.

But I remark again, I obiiractorl/.e this question of the agitated jail keeper as hasty, urgent and immediate. He l>ut it on tho run.

Oh, uro thoro not ia this homo to-tlay tlioso who aro postponing until tho last hour bf living tho attending tothethings of the soul? 1 givo lt as my opinion that ninety-nino out of tho ono hundred death-bed repentances amount to nothing.

I saw ono hanging on a troo In agony ami blood, Who Axed His languid eyes on mo As near His cross 1 stood. Oh, never till my latest breath Will I forget timi look, lt seemed to oluugo me with Hlsdoath, Though not a word Ho spoke. In tho troubled tl moa of Scotland Sir John Cooli runo was eomlumne I to death by the King. Tho ?tenth warrant was on the way Slr John Cochrane was bidding farewell io lils daughter Grissel at the prison door. Ile said: "Farewell, my darling child! 1 must die." His daughter said, "No, father, you shiill not dio." "But," ho said, "the King is iga I nst me, and 'tho law is after mo. and tho death warrant ts on Its way, and I must dlo; do not docolvo yourself, my dour child." Tho dauirhtor said, "Father, you shall not die," ns sho left the prison gate. At night, on tho moors of Scotland, a disguised wayfnror stood waiting for tho horseman carrying tho mnilbngs containing the death warrant. Tho disguised wayfarer, as tho horse carno by, eliitohod tho bridle and shouted to tho rider-to tho mun who ??ur rled tho mnilbngs, "Dismount!'* Ile felt tor lils arms nnd was about to shoal, but tho wayfarer jorko I him from Ins snddlo. and ho foll flat. The wayfnror ploked up the mail bags, put thom on his sliouldor und vanished in tho dnrkness, and fourteen days wero thus galnod for the prisoner's Ufo, during whlo.i tho fathor oonfoK?or was pleading for tho pardon of Slr John Cochrane. Tho second time tho death warrant ts on Us way. The disguised wiiytarer comos along and nsks for n little broad and a Utile wtno, starts on across the moors, and they say, "Poor mni>. to hnve to go out on such a stormy night, lt ts dark and you will lose yourself on tho moors " "Oh, no," ho says, "I will not." Ho trudged on and slopped, amid tho brambles and waited for tho horse* man to oomo currying tho mnilbngs contain ing tho doath warrant of Slr John Cochrane. Tho mntl carrier spurred on tils steed, for ho was fonrful hooauseof what lind occurred on tho formor Journoy, spurrod on his steed, when suddenly throuirh tho storm and through tho dnrkness thoro was a ilnsh of fire-arms and tho horse heonmo uninannge ablo, and ns tho mall enrrlor disehnrgnd lils pistol tn responso the horso flung him, (ind tho dlsgnlsod wayfnror pu? his foot .>n tlio bronst of tho overthrown rider and said, "Surrender now!"
