THE FOREST'S GLORY
REV. DR. TALMAGE DRAWS INSPIRA
TION FROM THE WOODS.
He Likens Human Life to the \Voo<ilan<l
Leaves—Man Without Ilelfglon Hies
Without Tinge of Hope—Perishes With
Mo Hojxt of Resurreetiou.
Washington, Oct. 25. —■ Tho season
of tho year adds much appositencss to
Dr. Talmago’s sermon, which wo send
out today. His subject is ‘‘Tho Pag
eantry of tho Woods,” and his text
Isaiah Ixiv, 6, “Wo all do fade as a
leaf.”
It is eo hard for us to understand re
ligious truth that God constantly reit
erates. As the schoolmaster takes a
blackboard and puts upon it figures and
diagrams, so that tho scholar may not
only get his lessen through the ear, but
also through tho eyo, so God takes all
the truths of his Biblo and draws them
out ill diagram on tho natural world.
Ubanipollion, tho famous Frenchman,
went down into Egypt to study the
hieroglyphics on monuments and tem
ples. After much labor he deciphered
ihem and announced to the learned
world the result of ins investigations.
The wisdom, goodness and power of
God are written in hieroglyphics all
over the earth and all over tho heaven.
God grant that wo may have under
standing enough to decipher them!
There nro Scriptural passages, like ray
text, which need to bo studied in the
very presence of tho natural world.
Hnhakkuk says, “Thou rankest my
feet like hind's feet,” u passage which
means nothing save to tho man that
knows that the feet of tho red doer, or
hind, nro peculiarly constructed, so that
they can walk among slippery rocks
without falling. Knowing that fact, we
understand that, when Hnhakkuk says,
“Thou rankest ray feet like hind's fret,”
he sets forth that tho Christian can
walk amid the most dangerous and slip
pery places without falling. In Lamen
tations wo rood that “tho daughter of
my people is cruel, like tho ostriches of
tho wilderness,” a passage that has no
meaning save to the man who knows
that tho ostrich loaves its egg in the
sand to bo hatched out hy the sun, and
that tho young ostrich goes forth unat
tended by any maternal kindness.
Knowing this, the passage is nignilloant,
“Tho daughter of my people is cruel,
like tho ostriches of tho wilderness. “
Glory of ttio Forest.
Those know but little of tho meaning
of tho natural world who have looked
at it through tho eyes of others and
from book or canvas taken their impres
sion. There are come facts so mobile
that photographers cannot take them,
and tho face of nature has such a flush
and sparklo and lifo that no human de
scription can gather them. No ono
kuowa the pathos of a bird's voice un
less ho has cat at summer evening tide
at tho edgo of a wood and listened to
tho cry of tho whippoorwill.
Thero is today more glory in ono
branch of sumach than a painter could
put on a whole forest cf maples. God
hath struck into tho autumnal leaf a
glanco that nono soo but th.oso who
eomo face to face—tho mountain look
ing upon the man, and tho man looking
upon tho mountain.
For several autumns I have had a tour
to tho far west, and one autumn, about
this time, saw that which I shall never
forget. I have seen tho autumnal sketch
es of Cropsey and other skillful pencils,
but that week I saw a pageant 2,000
mi lea long. Let artists stand back when
God stretches his canvas.' A grander
gpectaclo was never kindled before mor
tal eyes. Along by tho rivers and up
and down tho sides of tho great bills
and by tho banks cf tho lakes there was
an indescribable mingling of gold and
orange and crimson and saffron, now
lobering into drab and maroon, now
flaming into sol ferine and scarlet. Hero
and thero tho trees looked as if just
their tips had blossomed info fire. In
tho morning light (ho forests seemed as
if they had been transfigured, and in
the evening hour they looked as if tho
sunset had burst and dropped upon the
leaves. In rr.oro sequestered spots, win ro
tho frosts had been hindered in their
work, wo saw tho first kindling of tho
flames of color in a lowly sprig. Then
they rushed up from branch to branch,
until tho glory cf tho Lord submerged
the forest. Hero you would find a tree
just making up its mind to change, and
thero ono looked as if, wounded at every
pore, it stood bathed in carnage. Along
the banks of Lake Huron thero wero
hills over which thero seemed pouring
cataracts of lire, tossed up and down and
every whither by the rocks. Through
somo of tho ravines wo saw occasionally
a foaming stream, us though it wore
rushing to put out tho conflagration. If
at ono cud of tho woods a commanding
tree would not up its crimson banner,
the wholo forest prepare to follow. If
God’s urn of colors wero not infinite,
one swamp that I saw along tho Mau
mee would havo exhausted it forever.
It seemed as if the sea of divine glory
had dashed its surf to tho tiptop cf tho
Alleghmies, and then it had eomodrip
ping down to lowest loaf and deepest
cavern.
Wc Failo Gradually.
Most persons preaching from this text
find only in it n vein of cadiiwH. I find
that I have tv/o strings to this gospel
harp—a string of sadness and u string
of joy infinite.
41 Wo all do fade as a leaf. ”
First, Jiko the foliage, wo fade grad
ually. Tho leaves which v.i <k before
last felt the frost have day by day
been changing in tint and will for many
days yet cling to the bough, waiting for
the fist of the wind to; trike them. .Sup
pose you that the pictured h af that yon
hold in your hand took on its color in
an hour, or in a day, or in a week? L’o.
Deeper and deeper the flush till all the
veins of its life now seem opened and
bleeding away. After awhile leaf after
leaf they fall, now those on tho outer
branches, then those mast hidden, until
fhe lost spark of tho gleaming forge
■hall have been quenched.
.So gradually wo pass away. From
day to day wo hardly sec the change.
But the frosts have touched us. Tho
work of decay is going on, now a' slight
cold, no\t a season of overfatiguo, now
ivfever, now a stitch in the aide, now a
neuralgic thrust, now a rheumatic
twinge, now a fall. Little by little,
pain by pain, loss steady of limb, sight
not so clear, ear not so alert. After
awhile wo take a staff. Then, after
much resistance, wo oome-to spectacles.
Instead of Sounding into the vehicle,
wo are willing to be helped in. At last
the ootogenarian falls. Forty years cf
decaying. No sudden c hange. No fierce
cannonading of the batteries of life, but
a fading away, slowly, gradually, ns
tho leaf—as tho leaf!
Again, like the loaf, wo fade to
make room for others. Next year’s for
ests will bo as grandly foliaged as this.
Thero are other generations of oak leaves
to tako tho place of those which this
autumn perish. Next May the cradle of
the wind will rock tho young buds. Tl:3
woods will bo all a-hum with the chorus
of leafy voices. If tho tree in front of
your house, like Elijah, takes a chariot
of fire, its mantle will fall upon Elisha. •
If in the blast of these autumnal bat
teries so many ranks fall, there are re
serve forces to tako their place to defend
the fortress of I lie hills. The bearers ef
gold leaf will have more gold leaf ro
brat. The crown that drops today from
the head of (he oak will be picked up
and handed down for other kings to
wear. Let tho blasts come. They only
make room f^r other lifo.
Glv<» Way Cheerfully.
So, when wo go, others take our
spheres. We do not grudgo the future
I generations their places. Wo will have
had our good time. Let them ccmo on
i and have their good time. There is no
sighing among these leaves today, be
cause other leaves are to follow them.
After a lifetime of preaching, doctoring,
selling, sowing or digging, let us cheer
fully give way for those who come < n
to do tho preaching, doctoring, selling,
sewing and digging. God grunt that
tie ir life may bo brighter than ours lias
been. As wo get older do not let ua bo
affronted if young men and women
crowd us a little. Wo will have had our
day, and wo must lot them have theirs.
When our voices get cracked, let ns not
snarl at those who can warble. When
our knees are stiffened, lot us have pa
tience with those who go fleet as the
deer. Because our leaf is fading do
not let us despise tho unfrosted. Au
tumn must not envy tho spring. Old
men must bo patient with boys. Dr.
Guthrie stood up in i-'cotlnud and said
“You need not think I am old because
my hair is white. I never was so young
as I am now.” I look back to my child
hood days and remember when in win
ter nights in the sitting room tho chil
dren played the blithest and the gayest
of all the company were father and
mother. Although reaching fourscore
years of age, they never got old.
Do not bn disturbed as you see good
and great men die. People worry wht n
some important personage passes off the
stage and say, “llis place will never bo
taken.” But neither tho church nor
the state will suffer for it. There will
be others to tako the places. When God
takes ono man away, ho has another
right bark of hint. God is so rich in
resources that ho could spare 5,000
Summcriiclda and Saurian, it there were
eo many. Thero will bo other leaves as
j green, as exquisitely veined, us graca-
i fully etched, as well pointed. However
! prominent the placet we till, our death
will not jar the world. One falling leaf
does not shake tho Adiroudurks. A ship
is not well manned unless thero ho an
extra supply of hands—somo working
on deck, Home sound asleep in their
hammocks. God lias mtmned this world
very well. There will It*- other seamen
on deck when you and I are dow n in
tiro cabin, souud asleep in tho haia-
tncohs.
Not Alone V’o lYrixli.
Again, ns with tho leaves, wo fade
and fall amid myriads of others. Guo
• cannot count tho number (f plum* ^
which these frosts are plucking from the
hills. They will strew all tho streams;
they will drift into the caverns; ('):•>•
will soften tho wild beast's lair and fill
the eagle's eyrie.
All tho aisles of tho forest will fi t cov
; ered with their earp* t, and the rlcps * f
the hills glow with a wealth of coh r
and shape that will defy the looms of
Axuiinster. What urn could hold the
ashes of all tiie.se dead leaves? Who
i could count tho hosts that burn on this
funeral pyre of tho mountains?
f.o we dio in concert. The dock that
strikes tho hour of our going will s;.i;iid
tho going of many thousands. I^eeping
step with tho feofcof those who carry ns
out will bo tho trampof hundreds doing
tho same errand. Between 50 and 7;>
people every day lie down in Green
wood. That place has over 200,000 < f
tho dead. I said to tho man at the gate,
“Then, if thero uro so many here, you
must have tho largest cemetery.” Ho
said there wero two Itoumn Catholic
cemeteries in tho city, each of which
had more than this. Wo are all d; in<.
London and Peking aro not the great cit
ies of the world. The gravo is tho grei.;
city. It hath mightier population, lin
ger streets, brighter lights, thicker dart
nesses. Caesar is there, and all his sub
jects. Nero is there, and all his victims.
City of kings and paupers 1 It ha i swal
lowed all our cities. Yet, City -f: i
lenco. No voice, no hoof, no win <),
no clash, no smiting of hummer, no
clack of flying loom, no jar, jm whis
per. Great City of Silence! Of all Ira
million million bands, not one of th< i
is lifted. Of all its million n illiou i y ,
uotoucof thorn sparklet'. Of all Its Mil
lion million hearts, not otui pulsate
Tho living are in small minority,
i I f in the movement of time Homo
great question between the living and
the dead should he put mid Gotl call* d
up all flio dead and tho living to decide
it, as wo lifted our hands and front all
the resting places of the dead they lifted
; their hands, tho dead would outvuto ns.
j Why, the multitude of the dying and tlru
dead nr*i as these autumnal leaven drift*
rug under our feet today. Wo march on
toward eternity, not hy companies of a
hundred, or regiments of a thousand, or
brigad* s of ten thousands, but sixteen
hundred millions abreast! Marching on!
Marching on!
Ileanty Withers.
Again, as with variety of appearance
tho leaves depart, no do we. You have
noticed that somo trees, at the first touch
of die frost, lose all thoir beauty; they
stand withered and uncomely and
ragged, waiting for tho northeast storm
to drive them into the miro. The sun
shining at noonday gilds them with no
beauty. Ragged leaves! Dead leaves!
No one stands to study thorn. They nro
gathered in no vase. They aro bung on
no wall. So death smites many. Thoro
is no beauty in their departure. Ono
sharp frost of sickness, or one blast off
tho cold waters, and thoy are gone. No
tinge of hope. No phophecy of heaven.
Their spring was all abloom with bright
prospects, their summer thick foliaged
with opportunities; but Ootobcr came,
and their glory went. Frosted! In early
autumn t he frosts como, but do not seem
to damago vegetation. They aro light
frosts. But somo morning yon look out
of the window and say, “There was a
black frost Just night, ” and you know
that from that day everything will
wither. So men seem to get along with
out religion amid the annoyances and
vexations of lifo that nip them slightly
here and nip them there. But after
awhile death comes. It is a black frost,
and all is ended.
Oh, what withering and scattering
death makes among those not prepared
to meet it! They leave everything pleas
ant behind them—their house, thoir
families, their friends, their books, tln ir
pictures—and step out of the sunshine
into the shadow. They quit the prerueo
of bird and bloom and wave to go un-
beckoued and unwelcomed. Tho bower
in which they stood and sang and wove
chaplets and made themselves merry
has gone down under an awful equinoc
tial. No bell can toll one-half tho dole
fulness of their condition. Frosted!
But. thank God, that is not the way
people always dio. Tell mo on what
day of all tho year the leaves of the
! woodbine are as bright as they are to-
i day. So Christian character is never so
| attractive as in the dying hour. Such
| go into tho grave not as a dog, with
I frown and harsh voice, driven into a
; kennel, but they pass away calmly,
' brightly, sweetly, grandly 1 As the leaf!
' As the leaf!
Why go to tho deathbed of distin
guished men when thero is hardly a
house on this street but from it a Chris
tian has departed? When your baby
died, there wero enough angels in tho
| room to have chanted a coronation.
When your father died, yon sat watch
ing, and after awhile felt of his wrist,
and then put your hand under his arm
to see if there were any warmth left,
and placed the mirror to tho mouth to
see if there were any sign of breathing,
' and when all was over you thought how
grandly he slept—a giant resting after
a battle. Oh, there are many Christian
I deathbeds! Tho chariots of God, como
to take bis children home, arc speeding
! every whither. This ono halts at the
gate of princes. Tho shout of captives,
breaking their chains, comes ou tho
morning air. Tho heavens ring again
and again with the coronation. The 12
gates of heaven aro crowded with tho
ascending righteous. I see the accumu
lated glories of a thousand Christian
deathbeds—an autumnal forest illumin
ed l yon autumnal sunset! They died
not in shame, but in triumph 1 As tho
loaf! As the leaf!
To Hisn Again.
Lastly, as the loaves fade end fall
only to rise, so do we. All this golden
show* r ot the woods is making tho
ground richer, and in tho jnice and sap
and lifo of the tree tho leaves will come
up again. Next May the south wind
will blow the resurrection trumpet, and
th«y will rise. So wo fall in the dust,
only to rise again. “The hour is coming
v. li* n all who are in their graves shall
bear h's voice and come forth.” it
wt-nld be a horrible consideration to
think that cur bodies wero always to lie
in t !.e ground. However beautiful the

ASSASSINS AFTER "EZETA.
The General St;»rf-» it SoiiasMoii hy IJeelar-
ing III-* Lifo lit In I>nii£er.
Oaki.and, Cal., Oct. 20. — General
Carlos Ezcta lias taken up his quarters
in this city and is preparing to moot his
enemies. The general has surrounded
himself with bodyguards and is ready
to meet Senor Raphael Lopez, minister
of San Salvador to Mexico. Tho min
ister is visiting in San Francisco.
Kzeta says that Lopez was sent to s y
on him and make a report to President
Gutierrez.
The general has started a sensation
among his friends by raising tho cry
that he is pursued by hired assassins,
who aro socking his life at the instiga
tion of Gutierrez. He has called meet
ings of friends to discuss tho arrival if
tho minister. Threats have boon made
and now the general is waiting for
Lopez to make a move. The latter,
however, asserts that the general is a
bluffer and does not mean business.
Dr. Calderon, consul general of San
Salvador at San Francisco, has taken a
great deal of interest in tho latest out
break of Ezeta.
“Ezcta’s charge about assassins and
spies is ridiculous,” said Dr. Calderon.
"Mr. Lopez is tho one man who had
the courage, when General Menodez
died, to say in public that it "had been
caused by tho ingratitude ami the no
tions of Ez-^ta and to accuse the latter,
in effect, of the crime. Ezeta is only a
leaking bag of wind. He will not harm
anybody. We only wisli he would try o
return to his country. Hut there is no
fear of that. lie is simply making iibe
threats and we shall nay no attention io
him.''
