A large contingent fron Loofo
rllle and another irma Cincinnati were
present. Many of the vMtora bare re
mained here since yratcrday afternoon,
when Dr. Talniage preached In the
game place. The text of h! ormon
' this rooming wa from Acts 11L 15. "We
aro witnesses. "
Standing anild the liflls and groves of
Kentucky and before this great multi
tude tliat no man can number, most of
whom 1 never awlefore and never trill
too again In thU world. I choow a very
practical theme. In the days of George
Steplienson, the perfector of the lomo
ujotlre engine, the sclenthrts proved
conclnriveljr that a railroad train could
never be driven by steam power suc
cessful!? without peril; but the nulling
express trains from Liverpool to Edin
burgh and from Edinburgh to London
have made alj the nation vrltoemoa of
the splendid achievement
Machinists and navigators proved
conclusively that a steamer could never
crow tho Atlantic ocean, but no sooner
bad they successfully proved tho Ira
possibility of such an undertaking than
the work was done, and the paMeogera
on the Cunord, and the Jninon, and
the National, and the White Star lines
are witnesses. There went up a guffaw
of wise laughter at Professor Morse's
proposition to make the lightning of
heaven Ills errand boy, and it was
proved conclusively that the thing
could never be done, but now all tho
news of the wldo world put In your
hands every morning and night has
made all nations witnesses.
wrrsKSBKs ov tor rksurregtios.
8o In tho time of Christ it was proved
conclusively tlwt It was Impossible for
him to rise from tho dead. It was
shown logically that when a man was
dead, he was dead, and tho heart, and
the liver, and tho lungs having ceased
to perform their offices, tho limbs waulil
- bo rigid beyond all power of friction or
arousal T hoy showed It to bo an nb
lolnto absurdity that tho dead Christ
should ever get up alivo; but no sooner
had thoy proved this than tho dead
Christ aroso, and tho disciples beheld
him, heard his vplco and talked with
him, and they took tho witness stand
to provo that to bo tmo which tho wlso
acres of tho day liod proved to bo Im
possible; tho record of tho experiment
and of tho testimony Is In tho text,
"Illm hath God raised from tho dead,
whereof we ore witnesses."
Now, let mo play tho skeptic for a
moment. "Thero Is no God," nays tho
skeptic, "for I havo novor seen him
with tny physical eyesight Your 1)U
bio Is a pack of contradictions, Thero
nover was a miracle. Lazarus was not
raised from tho dead, and tho water
was never turned Into wlno. Your re
ligion Is an Imposition on tho credulity
of tho ages." There Is an ngod man
moving in Umt pew as though hn would
llko to rospoud. Hero aro hundreds of
pooplo with faces a llttlo (lushed at
thoso announcement, and all through
Uil's throng thero ts a suppressed feeling
which would llko to upealc out In bo
half of tho truth of our glorious Chris
Uanlty, as In tho days of tho text, cry
ing out, "Wo aro witnesses!"
Tho fact Is, that If this world Is ever
brought to God It will not be through
argument, but through testimony. You
might cover the wholo earth with nwl
ogles (or Christianity, and learned
treatises In defense of religion i you
would not couvert n oul Lecture on
tho liannouy between rclenco nud r
llgion aro beautiful mental dlKOlrillno,
but havo nover raved a noul and nover
will savo soul 1'ut a man of the world
and a tnim of tho church against each
Dtlier, and tho man of tho world will,
In all 'probability, gut (ho triumph.
Thero aro n thousand things In our re
ligion that seem Illogical to thu world
mid always will soem illogical.

But why go so lar to Hnd evwence
of tho Gospel's power to save a. soul I
We are witnesses." We were so proud
that no man could have humbled ns;
we were so hard that no earthly power
eould have melted as. Angels of God
were all around obont ns; they could
not overcome us. But one day. per
haps at a Methodist onxlous seat, or at
a Presbyterian catechetical lecture, or
at a burial, or on horseback, a power
seized tw, and made us get down, and
mode tis tremble, and made us kneeL
and made ns cry for mercy, and we
tried to wrench ourselves away from the
grasp, out we coma not ttuungasuai,
and when we arose we were as much
changed as Gourgis, the heathen, who
went Into a prayer meeting, with a dag
ger and a gun, to disturb the meeting
and destroy It, but the next day was
found crying: '0h, my great sins I Oh,
my great Bavlourl" and for eleven
years preached the Gospel of Christ to
his fellow mountaineers, the last words
on his dying lips being. "Free gracel"

TKASSFOKMED VX THK nOLT STOUT.
There Is a man who was for ten years
a liard drinker. The dreadful appetite
had sent down its roots around the
palate, and the tongue, and on down
until they were Interlinked with the
vitals of body, mind and soul ; but he
has not taken ony stimulants for two
years. Wliat did that? Not temper
anco societies. Not prohibition laws.
Not moral suasion. Conversion did it
"Why," sold ono upon whom the great
chango had como, "sir, I feel Just as
though I were somobody else." There
Is a sea captain who swore all tho way
from Now York to Ilavana, and from
Havana to San Francisco, and when
ho was In port ho was worse than when
ho was on sea. What power was It
that washed his tongue clean of pro
fanities, and made him a psalm singer?
Conversion by tho Holy Spirit There
aro thousands of people hero today who
aro no more what thoy once were than
a water lily ts a nlghtsliado, or a morn
lng lark Is a vulture, or day Is night
Now, If I should demand that all
those people horo present who havo felt
tho converting power of religion should
rise, so far from bolng ashamed thoy
would spring to their feet with more
nlacrity than they ever sprang to tho
danco, tho tears mingling with liioir
exhilaration as they cried, "Wo aro
wltncsRosI" And if thoy -tried to sing
tho old Gospel hymn, thoy would break
down with emotion hy tho timo thoy
got to tho second line:

Again, I remark that "wo are wit
nesses" of tho Gospel's powor to com
fort When a man has troublo tho
world comos in and eays, "Now, got
your mind off this; go out and breatho
tho fresh air; plungo deopor Into busi
ness." What poor advlcol Get your
mind off It I When everything Is upturn
ed with tho bercavoinont, and every
thing reminds you of what you havo
lost Get your mind off It! Thoy
might as well advlso you to stop think

that direction. Take a walk In tho

Christ como to you and say, "Got your

No. Thero was a mlnuto when ho
como to you perhaps In tho watches
of tho night perhaps in your place of
business, perhaps along tho streetand
ho breathed something Into your soul
that gave penco, rest infinite quiet, so
that you could tako out tho photograph
of tho departed ono mid look Into Uto

no power in this religion to quiet the

up an answer from comforted widow

saying, "Aye, aye, wears witnesses!"
Again, I remark that we are wit
nesses of the fact that religion has
power to give composure hi the last
moment I shall never forget the first
thno I confronted deatli. We went
across the cornfields in the country. I
was led by my father's hand, and we
camo to the farmhouse where the be
reavement had come, and we saw tho
crowd of wagons and carriages, but
thero was one carriage that especially
attracted my boyish attention, and it
had black plumes. I said: "Wliat's
tliat? what's that! Why those black
tac-sels at the topf And after It was
explained to me I was lifted up to
look upon tho bright face of an aged
Christian woman, who three days be
fore had departed In triumph. The
whole scene mode on Impression I
never forgot
TKSTIMONT OF DYIA'O CnKI8TtA.TS.
In our sermons and in our lay oxhor
tations wo are very apt when we want
to bring illustrations of dying triumph,
to go back to some distinguished per
sonage to a Jonn Unox or a Harnett
Newell. But I want you for witnesses.
I want to know If yoa havo over seen
anything to make yoa believe tliat the
religion of Christ can give composure in
the Qnal hour. Now, In the courts, at
torney, Jury and Judge will never ad
mit mere hearsay. They dornand that
tho witness must havo seen with his
own eyes or hoard with his own ears,
and so I am critical in ray examination
of you now; and I want to know
whether you have seen or hoard any
thing that makes you belie vo tliat tho
religion of Christ gives composure in
the final hour.
"Oh, yes," you say, "I saw my father
and mother depart Thero was a great
dlfforenco In their deathbeds. Send
ing by tho one we felt moro veneration.
By tho other there was moro tender
ness." Before tho ono you bowed per
haps In awe. In tho other case you
fell as If you would liko to go along
with hor. How did they feel In that
last hour? How did thoy seem to act?
Wore thoy vory muchfrightoncd? Did
thoy tako hold of this world with both
hands as though thoy did not want to
givo it upf "Oh, no," you say, "no; I
remember ns though it wore yostorday;
sho had a kind word for us all, and
there wore a few meinontoos distributed
among tho children, and then sho told
us how kind wo must bo to our father
In his loneliness, and then sho kissed us
goodby nnd went asleep as a child in a
cradlo." What mado hor so composed?
Natural courago?
"No," you say; "mother was very
nervous j whontho carriage Inclined to
tho sldo of tho road sho would cry out ;
sho was always rathor weakly." What
gave hor composure? Was It because
sho did not care much for yon, and tho
pang of parting was not groat? "Oh,"
you say, "sho showered upon us a
wealth of alloctlon; no mother over
loved hor children moro than mother
loved us; sho showed It by tho way sho
nursod us when wo wore sick, and sho
tolled for us until hor strength gava
out" AVliat, than, was It that gave
hor composure In tho last hour? Do
not hlilo It Be frank nnd let mo know.
"Oh," you say, "It was because nho
was so good ; sho mado tho Lord her

would go straight to glory, and that
wo would all meet hor nt last nt tho

Sontog began her musical career slt
was hiwed off the stage at Vienna
by the friends of her rival, Amelia
Steinlnger, who had already begun to
decline through her dissipation. Years
passed on, and one day Mudaino Son
tag, in her glory, was riding through
the streets of Berlin, when ehe saw a
little child leading a blind woman, and
site said : "Como here, my little child,
come here. Who is tliat you are lead
ing by tho hand '?' And the little child
replied: "That's my mother; that's
Amelia Steinlnger. She used to be a
great singer, but she lost her voice, and
she cried so much about it that sho lost
her eyesight." "Givo my love to her,"
said Madame Sontag, "and tell her an
old aoquaintanco will call on her this
afternoon."
Tho next week in Berlin a vast as
semblage gathered at a bcnollt for that
poor blind woman, nnd it was caid tliat
Sontag sang that nlghtas she had never
sung before. And she took a skilled
oculist who Is vain tried to givo eye
