Joshua s stock wxs down. The second day the priests blowing the musical in struments go around the city, and a fail ure. Third day, and a failure; fourth day, and a failure; fifth day. and a failure; sixth day, and a failure. The seventh day comes, the climacteric day. Joshua is up early in the morning and examines the troops, walks all around about, looks at the oity wall. The priests start to make the circuit of the city. They go all around once, all around twice, three times, four times, five times, six times, seven times, and a failure. There is only one more thing to do, and that is to utter a great shout. I see the Israelitish army straightening themselves up, filling their lungs for a vociferation such as was never heard before and never heard after. Joshua feels that the hour has come, and he cries to his host, “Shout, for the Lord hath given you the city!'’ All the people begin to cry, “Down, Jericho! down, Jericho!” And the long line of solid masonry begins to quiver, and to move, and to rock. Stand from under! She falLs! Crash! go the walls, the tem ples, the towers, the palaces, the air black ened with the dust! The huzza of the vic torious Israelites and the groan of the conquered Canaanites commingle, and Joshua standing there in the debris of the wall hears a voice saying, “There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life.” the moon, for you know the queen of the night sometimes will linger around the palaces of the day. Pointing one hand at the descending sun and the other at the faint crescent of the moon, in the name of that God who shaped the worlds and moves the worids, he cries, “Son, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou moon, in the valley of Ajalon.” They halted. Whether it was by refraction of the sun's rays or by the stopping of the whole plan etary system I do not know and do not care. I leave it to the Christian scientists and the infidel scientists to settle that question, while I tell yon I have seen the same thing. “What!” say you, “not the sun standing still?” Yes. The same mir acle is performed nowadays. The wicked do not live out half their day, and the sun sets at noon. But let a man «tart out ir battle for God and truth and against sin, and the day of his usefulness is prolonged and prolonged and prolonged.
