In this discourse Dr. Taluiage describes eoiue of the scenes to be nit- ^ netted lave at night in the great cities end warm the unwary of many perils; text, Kaial; 21, 11: "\Y atchmau, | ( what of the night?" ^ When night came down on Babylon, Kincveh and Jerusalem they nettled cartful watching; otherwise the incen- j* diary's torch might have been thrust ( into the very heart of the metropolitan ' , aplebdor, or enemies, marching from the hills, might have forced the gates. All night long, oil top of the nail uuc! in frout of the gates, might be heard the measured step of the watchman on his solitary beat. Silenoe hung in air, save as some pusserby raised the question: "Watchman, what of the night?" It is to me a deeply suggestive and , solemn thing to see a man atanding t guard by night. It thrilled through ^ xue as at thu gate of an arsenal in Charleston the question once smote me: "Who comes there?" followed by the sharp oomuiand: "Advance and give the countersign." Every moral teacher atanda on picket or patrols the wall as watchman. His work is to aound the alarm, and, whether it be in > the first watch, the second watch, in the third watch or in the fourth watch, to be vigilant until the daybreak flings its "morning glories" of blooming eloud across the trellis of the day. The ancients divided their night into four parts?the first watch, from 6 to 0; thq second, from 0 to IB; the third, from-' 1!( to 8, and the fourth, from 8 to fl. 1 speak now of the city in th? \hird watch, from 12 to 3 o'clock. Ifxnever weary of looking upon the life the city la the first watch.

It rejoices una to ^ give then mj seat in the city car. They have stood and hammered away all ( day. Their feet ere weary. They are ' exhausted with the tug of work. They g are mostly olieerful. With appetites sharpened on the swift turner's wheel and the carpenter's whetstone they aesk the evening meal. Tho clerks, too, hare broken away from the coun- ^ ter and with brain weary of the long line of figures and the whims of those ^ who go a-shopping, seek the face ef another ?r wife or child. The streets ^ are thronged with young men aetting out from the great centers of bargain making. Let idlers clear the street "V and give right of way to the beeweated artisans and merchants! They have ^ earned their bread and are now on their way to get it. The lights iu full * Jet hang over 10,000 evening repasts? the parents at either end of the table, the children between. Thank God, "who setteth the solitary in families." A few hours later and all the places P of amusement, good and bad, are in ^ full tide. Lovers of art, catalogue iu '( hand, stroll through tha galleries and ^ discuss the pictures. The ballroom is ^ resplendent with the rich apparel of ^ those who, on either side of tho white, ^ glistening boards, await the signal from ' the orohestra. Concert hulls are lift- * ed into enohantment with tha warble n of one songstress or swept out on a 8 sea of tumultuous feeling by the blast P of brazan instruments.

The outdoor air rings with laugh- c ter and with the moving to and fro of g thousands on the great promenades, o The dashing span, adrip with the foam of the long country ride, rushes past as you halt at the curbstone. Mirth, revelry, beauty, fashion, magnificence, mingle in the great metropolitan picture until the thinking man goea horn# to think more aerioualy, and tha praying man to pray more earnestly. A beautiful and overwhelming thing is tha olty in the first and second watches f the night. But the elock strikes IE, and tha third watch has begun. The thunder of the city has rolled out of the air. The slightest sounds out the night with such distinctness as to attract your attention. Tha tinkling of the beU of the street car In the distance and tha baying of tha dog. The stamp of a horse in the next street. The a la naming of a aaloon door. The hiccough of the drunkard. The shrieks of the ateam whistle five miles away. Oh, how suggestive. nay friends, the third watoh of the nlghtl i Thtrt arc honest men passing up t and down the street. Here la a ottj t missionary who has been carrylftg a t aouttle of coal to that poor family la that dark place. Here Is an under- J taker going up the steps of a building I from which there comes a bitter ory, t which indicates that the destroying t angel has smitten the first-born. Hare i |s a minister of religion who hae baen ( giving the sacrament to a dying Chris- < tian. Here la a physician passing along 1 In great hasta. Nearly all tha lights i have gone out in the dwelling*, for It ' la the third watch of the night. That light In tha window la the light of the watcher, for the medielnes must be \ administered, and the fever must be 1 watched, and the reatlese tossing off , f the coverlid must be resisted, and the lee must ba kept on the hot temples, and tha perpetual prayer must go np from hearts toon to be broken.

Let one great save of refreshing slumber roll oxer the henrt of the greut town, submerg- , lug care and anxiety and xvorrinieut ' tnd pain. Let the city sleep. But, my friends, be not deceived. There will be to-night thousands who ivill not sleep at all. Co up that dark illey, nnd be cautious whero you reud lest you fall over the pros- ! rute forsi of a drunkard lying on bis )\vn doorstep. Look about 3011, lest | ,'uu feel the garroter's hug. Look hrough the broken window pane, I md see what you can see. You say: 'Nothing." Then listen. What is t? "Cod help us!"

It would be a , sockery to kindle another light in uch a pluee aa that. I'asa out and ass down the street. Our cities are ull of such homes, and the worst ime the third watch of the night. Do you know it is in this third ratcli of the night that oriminals do heir worst work? It is the crlmi>ala' watch. At half-past eight I'clock you will find thein in the rinking saloon, but toward 12 ('clock tliey go to their gnrrets, they :et out their tools, then they start n the street. Watching on either ide for the police, they go to their rovk of darkness. This is a burglar, ml the false key will soon touch the tore lock. This is an incendiary, nd before morning there will be a Ight on the sky and a cry of "Fire, Ire!" This la an assassin, and toQorrow morning there will be a dead tody in on? of the vacant lots. Durtjg the daytime these villains in our ities lounge about, sorue asleep and owe awake, but when the >thlrd rutch of the night arrives their eye a keen, their bruin cool, their arm trong, their foot fleet to fly or purue, they are ready. Many of these >oor creatures were broucht un t.h*t vay. They wore born in a thieves' garret. Their childish toy was a burflar'a dark lantern. The first thing hey remember was their mother >andaginr the brow of their futher, itruck by tha police club. They beran by robbing boys' pockets, and iow they have come to dig the unlerground passage to the cellar of ha bank and are preparing to blast ha gold vault. Just so long as there tra neglected children of the street, uat so long wo will havo theso dcaicradoes. 8ome one, wishing to make i good Christian point and to quote i passage of Scripture, expecting to fet a Soriptural passage in answer, laid to out of these poor lads, cast >ut and wretched: "When your fa:her and mother forsake you, who irill take you up?" and the boy said: 'The perlioe!" My friends, you see all around about jou the need that something radical be lone. You do not see the worst. In the midnight meetings in London a great multitude has been saved. We want a few hundred Christian men and women to come down from the highest oirclts of society to toil amid these wandering and destitute ones and kindle up a light in ths dark alley, ?ven the gladness of lleavcn. Do not go wrapped in your fine furs and from ? t Ambushed. Peto T. Colgan, paymaster of (ho Virginia Iron furoaoos, at Middloboro. Ky., was waylaid, shot and robbed of |2,000 about midway botwoen this town and the furnaoos Thursday. Colgan had drawn tbo money from tbo bank and was taking it to tbo offioe to pay the bands. Tbo robbors bid in a olump of trees, shot Colgan, seized tbo money and ran. A possee pursued the robbers, but they eaoaped to the mountains. In their flight they dropped I ii iM Ml I I l yon* well-filled table* witk the 14e? that ploua talk la going to atop tho gnawing of an empty atoma?h or to warm etoeklnglesa feat. Taka bread, take raiment, take medioine, aa wall aa taka prayer. There la a great deal of common sense in what the poor woman said to the city missionary when ha was telling her how aha ought to lovo (Jod and serve Him. "Oh," she said, "if you were as poor and cold as I am and us hungry you eould think of nothing else." I could give you the history in a minute of one of the best friends I aver had. Outside of my own family I never had a better friend. He welcomed ma to my home at the west. Ha was of splendid personal appearance, but ha hud an ardor of aoul and a warmth of ulVection that made me love him like a brother. 1 saw men coming out of tho saloons and gambling hella, and they surrounded my friend, and they took him at the weak point?his social nature?and I sow him going down, gnd I had a fair talk with him, for 1 never yet saw a mnu you oould not talk with on the aubject of his habita ou talked with him In the right way. I said to him: "Why don't you give up your bad habits and become a Christian?" I remember now Just how he looked, leaning over his counter, as he replied: "1 wish I could. Oh, sir, I should like to be a Christian, but I have gone so far astray I can't gat back!" So the time went on. After awhile the day of sickness came. I was summoned to bis sickbed. 1 hastened. It took but a few moments to get there. I was surprised as I went an. 1 saw him in hia ordinary dress, fully dressed, lying on top of the bed. I gave him my hand, und he seized It convulsively, and said: "Oh, bow glad 1 am to see you! Sit down there." I sat down, and ho said: "Mr.Tnlmnga, juet where you ait now my mother aat last night. She has bean dead 20 years. Now, 1 don't want you to think I am out of my miud or that 1 am superstitious; but, sir, she sat there last night, and ahe aaid: 'Jtoswell, I wish you would do better?I wish you would do better. 'I said: 'Mother. I wtsk I could do betetr; I try to do better, but I can't. Mother, you used to help me. Why can't you help me now?' And, air, I got out of bed, for It was a reality, and I went to her and threw my arms around her neck. and I said: 'Mother, I w ill do better, but you njuet help. I can't do this alone.'" I knelt and prayed. That night his eoul went to the Lord who made it. Arrangement! were made for the obsequies. The question was raised whether they should bring him to the church. Somebody said: "You cannot bring such a dissolute man as that into the church." I said: "You will bring him in church; he stood by me when he was alive, and I will stand by him when he is dead. Bring him." As I stood in the pulpit and saw them carrying the body up the aisle I felt ae if I could weep tears of blood. On one lide of the pulpit eat his little child of sight years, a sweet, beautiful little girl, that I had seen him hug convulsively in his better moments. He put an her all jewels and gave her all pictures and toys, and then he would go iway, as If hounded by an evil spirit, to his cups and the house of iniquity? s fool to the correction of the stocks. She looked up wonderingly. She knew lot what it meant. She was not old enough to understand the sorrow of an orphan. On the other side sat the men who had ruined him; they were the men who had poured the wormwood into the orphan's cup; they were the men who had bound him hand and foot. I knew them. How did they seem to feel? Did they weep? No. Did they say: "What a pity that ao gfutrous a man should bp destroyed?" No. Did they sigh repentingly over what thay had done? No. They aat there, looking as vultures look at the carcass of a lamb whose heart they have ripped out. Bo they sat and looked at the coffin lid, and I told them the judgment of God upon those who had destroyed their fellow. Did they reform? I was tc'd they were in the places of iniquity that night after my friend was laid In Oakwood cemetery, and they blasphemed and they drank. Oh, how merciless men are, especially after they have destroyed you! Do not look to men for comfort or help. But there Is a man who will not reform. He says: "I won't reform." Well, then, how many acts are there in a tragedy? I believe there are live acts iu a tragedy. Act the first of the tragedy: A young man starting oft from home; parents and sisters weeping to haro him go; wngon rising over the hill; farewell kiss flung back. King the bell, and let the curtain full. Act the second: The marriage altar; full organ; bright liglita; long white veil trailing through the aisle; prayer and congratulations and exclamation of "IIow well she looks!" Act the third: A woman waiting for staggering steps; old garments stuok into the broken window pans; marks of hardship on the faoe; the biting of the nails of bloodless Angers; neglect and cruelty and despair. Ring the bell, and let the ourtaln drop. Act tha fourth: Threa graves in a dark place?grave of the child that died for lack of medicine, grave of the wife that died of a broken heart, grave of the man that died of dissipation. Oh, what a blasted heath with three graves! Plenty of weeds, but no flowera. King the bell, and let the curtain drop. Aot tha fifth: A destroyed soul's eternity; no light, no music; blaoknass of darkness forever. But I cannot look any longer. Woe, woe! I close my eyes to this last aot of the traar ?dy. Quick, quick! Ring the bell, and let the curtain drop. "Rejoice, 0 young wan, In thy youth,and let thy heart rejoice In the daya of thy youth, but knowthouthat for all these thing's God will bring you luto Judgment." "There Is a way that neemeth right to a wan, but the end thereof is death." Bread Riots. "Tho Lamborg morning papers report bread riots at Taraskova, eastorn Russia," says tho Vienna oorrospondent of tho Daily Mail. "In Samaria, tho starving peasants stormed the municipal buildings and the residenoe of wealthy persons, setting some on fire. Troops wero summonod and 14 poasants wero killed. "Similar riots, in whioh several persons were killed, ooourred at Andtbrweska, where two landlords had beeuunurdered. and also, at Postrawka - Jkmlu , *'< 1fServed Him Right.
