Terfittc" Sermon by Father Elliot, a Paulist Views of Material Hell. The, Paulist Missionary Fathers, pi8sb8raus, Elliot and Do Sohn, have iitKirr""t. t?r,JTw irrrr-T-T 'Church jo Sarmfito,rtJd tere rented a Trodinous excitement. On Sunday-week St. Rol6s dnnfehab pa'eked alniost'to suffocation, when, ns y ihBecorUnipivi:BSLy3t Father Elliot delivered the most tremendous sermon ever T heard on the Pacific coast. "VVo should, iudeed, think so, from tho report hi that paper, which must necessarily be but an im perfect transcript of the appearance and eloquence of the firey priest who seems to have been revived trom the dusty crypts of the Fathersjnith rust-eaten ' apostolic 'trumpet, to startle and teirify this skeptical age. After the Mass, Father Elliot turned to the great ' congreation, andi hito self all electric with excitement, asked : How many then present would : oon be in the place of torment where Dives was? Are there not some, he said, who are certain to be there? How dreadful the thought! How dreadful to think tliat one day tl is vast concourse of people wi'l be divided, .and l one will be on the rther side of the gulf,of chco a the Scriptures has it, though he prayed from his son) thaC all; might find a place in Abraham's bosom. Some I will uouuue33 oe in mai piace oi I torment, and fiiany let us hype the I great mass will be on tlie right side i of chaos, thai j vast separation: be j tween heaven and hell; a vacancy I silent aiid jr. m -asurable in its emj -itnei ;v.s er than the tea, dark r i than the rail of blackest nightr Ah ! i ; were it an ocean, you it an ocean, vou micrht drive u oii it with the sf.'eed of the hurri- canc a thousaLd, thousand years and never reach tfi.it other shore. Above md beyond it are the shining courts of God, and on tho other sida the prison house of hell. Some, per haps, and alas, whom we have loved and have gone before, may to-night be in the midst of the flames of that place of torment. Let us remember !r, we, though spared, harte not J'et 'scaped those same tornients , let? us realize the great truth that there is a material burning hell of woe and torment and pain for both body and soul. Christ his rovcaled t us that these 1 odi s thill rise and bo united ngnin to the spirit of their former existence. As our bodies are material, so shall their punishment be material, and the flames of hell will be real flanics, and liquid fire to burn and ct to never consume them. Many theo logians have supposed hell to be lo cated inside the earth, and others have placed it beyond what we know of the material universe; but wher ever it is, of this be assured, it is a material place. It was made by God at first for the fallen angels. All the Prophets unite in saying it is n place of brimstone and file. We may suppose it a vast and almost limitlcsi valley, broad as earth upon earth and deep as the deltas of its own woe. The speaker here rapidly drew a wonderful picture of this hell. Its gloom he painted as so black and ovei hanging, so awful and deep as to pass the comprehension of man; from the depths of this dark valley, with, its dense and Joathsome foliage the lurid flames shoot up like volcaiv ic eritptions and light up the, scene with flashes which but deepen its aful blackness. Storms of hot air sweep over:it as spoken of by 'the prophet Juile, by, David. From its bottomless depths, packed with the damned, come the mcsth!orrid cries of woe anil anguish such sounds,as; mingling with the ebrieks of demons and the roars of detiJsweuld, split the ears of man and shale the world to its center Here first were c:t the bad angelsfho, in the fumes of hell, and, as Holy Writ tells tis, the flames began to devour theta. Short ly after the to gels fall came that of man, and then to the place of tor ment were condemned the men ami women Who rebelled, ogaiust God. Ah! as these condemned souls pass bjr and 50 to the iiriok of hell, conceive if you can the agony of their distorted countenances, tt pain ana torment they ' endure as tliey pass ,111 to .the. abode of the wrath- of God. The lost are pun ished in the .t-ocjy. . The Scriptures declare the - bodies cf ' the damned shall remain corrupted. We si all not all be changed; says. the Apostle. Whosoever sows to the flesh shall reap' corruption. So says the Word of God; so shall it surely bo. What is reaping corruption? Why, it means it shall be the reward of our bodies; they shall be reinhabited by our loathing" souls, these bodies reeking from the grave, these bod ies corrupted, putrid, rotting, and never ceasing to rot. What is more painful than the pain of the flame to our flesh? It is peculiarly agonizing, peculiarly pain ful and tormenting. This is caused by a fire God gave to us for good uses, and for our comfort. But hell fire was also made by a just God. Out of hatred to his enemies St. Au-! mi-fiiirh envo tin nnn on f iu lrnfuvrt I lft Oil m-m W fXtMJ Oj UU IViMJU W t MM, &4 W j to man equal to the torments of the fire of hell. They shall be fc'as into fire, soys David in speaking of the ungodlv. What fire is meant but this. Oh, imagine the body burning through and through, and yet never. never consuming: yet God in this j oulv deals out exact justice. God! . - 4 gave us our lodies for enjoyment nnd I good lives and good uses. Tl Christian's body is consecrated to God, and such are members of Christ. Now lirtf does the adult- erer and drunkard and (j0 sinner with the body? Do they corrupt it? o when Uod departs out oi mat bodv what is the result? It is coi- ! rupt and must be cutoff from the i lxwl. f 4lll-lCf4 Ami if LI flrtAltlH3A1 "In whatsoever man sinneth, in that also shall he be tormeted," says Holy Writ. If you despise 'My law says Goel, I will visit you with burn ing heat to waste jour eyes Oh! what shall be the drunkard'; punish ment; he who putrefies hi?? body blotd out his eyes and parches his tongue. Shall it not be the punish ment of his choice? They shall drink fie wrath of the Almighty, fays the Bible, and that is eternal fire. Ah, debauchee! How elo you use your body', anel how shall you dwell with God! But the punishment of the soul is more dreadful than that of the bodv. And that isiust: since in the soul the sinner does God the great est injury. The pdnishment of the soul is by the same real hell fire, which by a peculiar and wonderful property burns through the body and finds out and feeds upon the soul. The soul is the quick, of our whole being. What then sbail be the pain when the fire finds it out? Ah, far more terrible than when the knife dashes in and finds thequick beneath our nails, or the elentist touches the nerves and shocks the whole body. The soul is the quick of our very ex istence; it is the nerve of nerves. Yet it shall burn forever if we forget god. There is no relief which can come to it. Here the picture of an ampu tation was drawn, and the degrees of pain compared with terrible viv idness. Another punishment &( tlie soul is Itar companionship. First, of its own body. It shall be united to its corruptiflg, dead, rotting body, whose state is unending ronnets. Even in this life, often the body be-, comes a burden to the soul; but ahj consider it as ffcrced upon it during the tortures of an eternity. The body is a carcass, a corpse, continu ally putrefying, and .the soul is locked in itti in, loathing horror. Dreadful picture, horrible truth. : . This is no fancy of mine. St. Chrysoslo rJi t g ntle doctor of the Church, says the demons fecel upon ' f - (. i 1 I'll - .'J. 5 ' I corpses. t Putief action, no , doubt is the state of the bodv in hell.' He then sketched the comrSaiotrship of hell. The drunkard, sent there by th 5 grogf eeller; the drunkard's wife sent there by the rum seller; i the drunkard's children, sent to steal and Starve and to bring up1 'in hell, by tlie grog seller. All "waitiogf' to vent, flifiir, . soul's imi)recations on him. There he will find his excuse f or his -traide1 to fade away.'

Ahjwbat a congregation shall that be; sinners packed in the dark valley- sa jrrf the JBibl,like grapes pressed in a press. Ohl the horror of a man suddenly thrust into the abode of devils a company of devils! What'words shall describe the horror of the soul which finds itself where the only relief of the devils is to . makf their "companions more miserable 1 Oh ! the lost soul praying there for the grog-seller,and murderer, aud adulterer to die with out priest or hope, and come to hell, where they may . add by their re proaches to his horrible tonne Hits! Oh! who can tell the agon v in bell of those who have sent others there! No wonder the px-ophet says, "It is a place of eternal torment." With a terrible review of the con dition of the world; the fond belief of the grog-seller, sharper, plandcrer, ! usurer adulterer anaaeDaucnee urat they are safe and all right, and a sketch of the sure fate of the ungod ly, ho closed what wa in all respects a. terribly eloquent sermon, and held the vast audience almost breathless. and at times turi.lcd every oeiug with horror.

A number of let ters h ivo of late been been addressed to this department by yofih'g' women, askiug advice willi respect to choos ing a prefession or vocation. They all eem to proceed on the same sup position that, if the choice is right, success is sure to follow. That de pends on many circumstances. v In this matter of winning position and pay, tho majority of women have a greafc deal to learn. Not knowing how the few fortunate fe males they hear or or read about have attained reputation and wealth, they fancy it must have come by some magical hocus-pocus, . by the rnblahg of Aladdin's Lamp, by friendly in fluence, by anything butv steady, per sistent, hard work. Charlotte Ctrsh mah, Louise Alcott, Mrs. Stowe, An na Dickinson, Clara Louise Kellogg what fortunate women they are, how admired, bow fa&otftf, how enviable! Why cannot" every woman accom plish and enjoy as much as they have? ' Now, there is an absolute certain ty that if the lives and labors of these women were thoroughly uri derstood, the secret of their success would be found to be high stand ards, uncompromising devotion to their purposes, and incessant indus try. They - wen success by deserv ing it deserviug it as judged by the highest masculine standards. Other women must succeed, if at all, on the same basis. Now, a man Who determines on a liberal and thorough course of cult ure; expect to' give . seven years to getting through college, three to professional tftudy, and then beginning,' perhaps, at the lowest round of the ladder to work up slowlv and steadily until he gets as far as bis talents will take him.

Doubtless sho may be, with respect to the meagerness of her salary as compared with that of men no more capable than sho. But there are a great many women who hold high positions as educators; How did they gel tctf positions whtrcthey are? Only by mastering the elements of success, as men master them, by laborious, continued and patient ef fort.

But let her be suro there is no success in this worlel worth having without long, persistent, untiring, patient, lovinglabor. .V. Y. Tribune. GETTING The Arcadian Boy with a Broad White Forehead and a Soft Browfn Eye. '. . . Young Coville was out looking for a ride Friday afternoon. He - had his sled with him, and he wanted to fasten it to a horse-sleigh. An t p portunity finally ptesented itself. It was a farmer who was driving, and he had two good horses. His son sat in the back of the sleigh, watch ing the various village boys. He was a pale boy, with a broad oiefctead and a soft brown eye. No one can read character as well as 'children, and when Master Colvillo looked in to the open countenance of the far mer lad, he put after the sleigh with all his might, and catching up to it, threw1 himself on the tail-board, keeping nis eye firmly fixed on the farmer boy. Then the farmer boy suggested that young Coville get on his own sled he would hold the rope for.a little way. The offer' was ac cepted at once, and Master Colville mounted his own sled, ' where ho rode in triumph, to the envy of ev ery boy he passed. Getting toward tite suburbs, the . farmer, I ' who was quite deaf, : hurried fo ward his horses, and Master Covdle tried to look ahead without smiling; but it was impossible,- the speed was so ex hilarating.
