TrxT: "Ifthotree fall toward tho south,
or toward tho north, in tho nlnco whore tho
treo falletli, there it shall bo." - Eocl. ii.. 3.
Thoro is a hovering hope in tho minds of a
vast raultitudcof pooplo that therowill bo an
opportunity in tho noxt world of correcting
the mistakes of this; that however complete
a shipwreck wo may make of our earthly life,
it will bo on a bench up which wo may walk
to a palace; that us a defendant may lose his
ease In n Circuit Court ami appeal it anil
liave it ?o up to tho Supreme Court or Court
of Chancery and all the costs thrown over on
the other party, so n mau may lose his case
in this wot Id, but in the higher jurisdiction
of eternity have tho decision of tho earthly
case set aside, all the costs remitted and tiie
defendant tie triumphant forever.
The object of ray sermon is to show you
that common sense declares with trie text
that such an expectation is chimerical. "If
tho tree fall toward the south, or toward the
north, in the placo whore the tree falleth,
there it siiall he." There are those who say
that if the impenitent and unfortunate man
enters the next world and sees tho disaster,
as a result of that disaster lie will turn, tho
distress the cause of his reformation; ImI we
have ton thousand instance* ail armnd
about us of people who have done wrong
and disaster suddenly eatne upon them
?did the disaster ln*al tliein? No,
11ley went <>u. There is a man flun^
of dissipations. 'l'ho doctor savs to litin:
"Now, mv friend, if you don't stop drinking
and don't stop this fast lite you are living,
you will die." The patient thanks
the ithvsicinn for his warning and gets hotter;
he begins tosit up. begins to walkaround
the room, begins to go to business and takes
the same round of grog shops where he got
his morning dram aud his evening dr.-on and
the drains between. Down again. Satno
dootor. Satno physical anguish. Santo medical
warning. But now the sickness
is more protracted. the liver more
obstinate. the stomach more irritable,
the digestive organs more rebellious.
But still, under medical skill, he gets better,
goes forth, commits tho same sacrilege
against his physical health. Sometimes h*>
wakes up to see what lie Is doing, and lie
realizes ho is destroying his family and that
his life is a perpetual perjury against his
mariiage vows, and that that broken-hearted
wotnau is so different from the roseate wife
ho married thnt her o'.d schoolmates do not
recognize her on the stroef, nn<t that liis sous
are going out in liTo under tho taunt of n
father's drunkenness, and that his daughters
nrc going out in life under tho searillcatioh
of a disreputable ancestry. His

crucifying, dumiiiDg torture. Where h
he? He i? in og earth. Does it stop
him? All! no, Aittr awhile delirium, tremens
pours out upon His pillow a Whole
jungle of hissing reptiles. His screams h >rr{fy
tho neiglihors as he dashes cmt ot bod
crying, "Take these things off of me!" He
is drinking down tlm goinfort of his family,
the eduealion of h.is children, their prospects
for this life and perhaps their
prospects for the life to come. Dale
and conval' scent ho sits up. l'hysieian
says to him. "Now, my gool fellow,
I am going to have a plain talk Willi
you. It you ever have an altr.de of thi
iviii'4 iiKiiu ,>n;i win uit\ 1 run i suvn you,
ami all the doctors in creation can't
save you."' Tho patient yets up, starts out,
jroes tho same round of dissipation and is
down uptin; but this tiino medio inns do not
touch his case. Consultations of physicians
say there is no hope. Death ends tho scene.
That process of inebriation and physical suffering
ami medical warning ami dissolution
is tnkiny place within a stone's throw of
where you sit and in every neighborhood of
Christendom. P.iin does not reform. Sufferinjj
does not cure. What Is true in reyard
to one sin is true in reyani to
all sins, and yt men are expe.-tiiu;
in the next lift*there will he opportunity for
puryat ?ri:? I reyenerat ion.
Auaiti, I wish you to further notice that
another < hat;ce in another world means the
ruin of tills. Now. suppose n wicked man
is assured that after a lifetime of wick Incss
lie eati iix it all riqht in tho future?
That would he the demoralization of society,
that won' 1 tie the demolition of tit" human
race. There are now men who arc kept
on the limits of sin by their fear. The fear
that ii we are I,-vl and unforyiwn here p
will n< t he well for us in the next existence,
is the chief influence that keeps civilization
front rtishtny hack into semi-barbarism, ai d
keeps semi-barbarism from rushiny buck
into miilniyht savayerv. and keeps midnight
savayerv from rushiny hack into extinction.
Another chance in another world means tho
demolition of this world.
Furthermore, my friends?for I am ttreuehiny
to myself as well us to"you?we {are on
tin* same level, and though the platform is
a little hiuhor than the pew, it is only for
convenience, an t that we may the better
speak to the people; we are all on the -mm1
platform, and I am talkiny to toy soul while
I talk to yours?inv friends, why another
chance in another world when we have declined
so many chances in this? Suppose
you spread a banquet and you invite
a vast number of friends, and union;;
others you send an invitation to u man who
disregards it. or treats it in an obnoxious
way. Duriny twenty years you yavc twenty
banquets, a banquet a year, and you invite
your friends, and every time you invite this
man. wliodisreyards your invitation or sendback
some in dignity. After a while you
move into a larger house and amid morr
luxurious surroundings. an 1 yon invite
your friends, hut you do not invito tlint
man to whom twenty times you sent
an invitation to the smaller house. An
yon to Illume? You would only malt'
yourself absurd before God and man to s"ii<
that man another invitation. For twenty
years lie has I declining your oiters urn
sending in-ult for your kindness an I courtesy,
and can he blame you? Can he coup
up to your house on the nii^iit of the ban
quel? Looking up and seeing it is a Unci
house will he have any right to say: "Id mi
in. I have declined .'ill thoso other offers
hut thi- is a larger hoii e. a more luxuri.m
abode. I,et 1110 in. Give MM' allot he
chance."

Why, my brother, you might as well go out

You see eomtnon-senso agrees with my text

Oh, my friends, all you and I need to

the Earl of Huntley had lost his helmet.
The private soldier took olT his liolmet and
went up to the Earl of Huntley and put thhelmet
011 his head. Now, the head of tlni
private soldier uncovered, he wits soon
slain, whlto his commander rode in
safety through and out of the battle. Hut it
is different in our case. Instead of a private

THE NAVAL
MILITIA ROASTED.
OFFICIAL. KKPORT OF THK
IIOAKI) OF INSPECTORS.
Charleston Mllltlanipn Sit Cnmfnrtahlv
in the Stern Sheets ami Kxpect
the Onicers to How Themiiuck
of I)iscl|illne.
South Carolina's Nnvnl Militia is
quito sharply criticised by the board
of naval ulTairs appointed to make an
<nspection of the "Palmetto Reserve."
In their oflicial report to the Secretary
of the Navy of the inspection made at
Charleston, Juue loth, l(5tk and 17th,
the board states that the professional
knowledge, outside of piloting, boat
sailing and of engines of the South
Carolinians, is very meagre.
"In the first division?the Charleston
division?thero were evidences oi
much lack of discipline. The seuior
oflicers seemed to huvo no idea of the
habit of comnran 1, nor to buve sufficient
control over their men. When
crubnrkiug in cutters it was noticeable
that tho enlisted men seated themselves
comfortably in the stern sheet*
and expected the ollicers to take their
oars. When spoken to regarding tliii
state of atVaiis, the militia oHicers admitted
that there was but little discipline
in the division.
Tho discipline of tho secoud war
somewhat better than that of tho first,
and that of the third (or Beaufort) division
was very good. The men of tho
third were well set up; the oflicers
gave their commands well, and obedience
was quick and prompt. Both officers
and men of this division appear
to tako more interest, and to be more
eager to learn, tkuo those of the other
divisions.
Tho commander is a tug engineer,
and, with all tho other oflicers, has no
knowledge of naval life or customs,
nor of men-of-war and nnval weapons,
and jt is not reasonable to expect great
^gufjs under such conditions. We
tnink Tt Lighly ndvisnblo that a monitor,
with shit ably bonis, be furnished
tliis cc jmmaniT and that a Ifue officer of
the nifv? be ordered iu command '.o
act as Instructor* The executive officer,
althoifgTi a very pleasant ami intelligent
gentleman, did not seem to
aclively enter upon tho performance
of the duties of hi3 office, or to seek
knowledge relative thereto.
The uniforms so far as the enlisted
men concerned are absolutely unsuitable.
They are the same for oflic? rs
ami men, i.s they had when they were
in tho militia under the war department,
slight changes have been made
to give a naval aspect without much
regard for correctness. It is recommended
that th y ho requested to use
iliA Krutr* iimtiMiil of tlin Tin tinmil kliiolil
ami to put the letters "S. C." above
the cap device, after tho manner of
the Georgia Naval Militia; wo also
recommend that, if possible, the proa
out largo stock of obsolete navy uniforms
be served out to tho naval
militia.
Ellicicucy in the various ratings .s
only fair. Some of the petty ollieeie
bid fair, under proper discipline and
instruction, to become excellent leading
men. Several of these showed
remarkable /.en 1 and earnestness to
learn.
The State has not made very libera'
appropriations for the naval nulitin,
and the manner of appointing officers
will he improved when the nills now
pending before the Legislature becomes
a law. There is no tpiestiou
i that this organization is badly handiI
capped for want of suitable appliances,
such as a monitor or vcsccl of sonic
sort, a few boats, a number of copies
of our drill books, proper uniforms,
and above all, u graduate of the Nava
Academy as instructor.
