Tho rtsider Ing of tho First Sonata in D Minor, by Ouilmant, on tho great organ of tho Brooklyn Tiibcrnncle this morning, by Professor Honry Kyre Browne, the or ganist, hold the vast congregation spcllbuund with profound emotion. Dr. Talmnge preaahed on "Sailing up tho Nile," tho second sermon of the Bories, untitled "From the Pyrandds to tho AcropoliN; or, What I Saw In Dgypt and Greece Conlimiatory of tho Scrip tures." Ilis text was Ezckiel xxlx, 9, "Tho river is mino and I have made it." Alia! This Is the Iliver Nile. A brown or yellow or silver cord on which are hung moro Jewels of thrill ing Interest than on any river that was ovor twisted in tho sunshine. It ripples through tho book of Ezckiel, and Hashes In tho books of Deuteronomy and Isaiah and Zeclmrinh and Nullum, and on Its banks stood the mlglities of many ages. It was tho crystal cradle of Moses, and on Its banks Mary, tho rofngee, carried tho Infant Jesus. To find tho birthplace of this river was the fascination and defeat of expeditions without number. Not many years ago Bayard Taylor, our great American traveler, wrote, "Sinco Columbus first looked upon Sun Salvador tho earth has but ono emo tion of triumph loft for her bestowal, and that sho reserves for him who shall first drink from the fountains of the Whlto Nile under tho snow Ileitis of Kilima-NJaro." But tho discovery of the sources of tho NHo by most peoplo was considered an Impossibility. Tho flhall understand why the Blblo gives such prominence to this river, which Is the largest river of all the earth with ono exception. But before wo board tho train we must take a look at Alexandria. It was founded by Alexander tho Great, und was onco tho Now York, tho Paris, tho London of tho world. Temples, palaces, fountains, jmrdens. pillared und efflorescent with all architectural sleep." pass right out upon thoso wondrous waters und between the banks crowded with the story of empires. According to the lead pencil mark in my Blblo it was Thankglvlng day morning, Nov. 28, 18S9, tllat with my family and friends we stepped aboard the steamer on tho Nile. Tho Moham medan call to prayers had been sound ed by tho priests of that religion, the Muezzins, from the four hundred mosques of Cairo as the cry went eut: "God Is creat I bear witness that stands. Not a wall Is unbroken. Not a fountain tosses In the sun. Even the ruins liavo been ruined, and all that remains aro chips of marble, small pieces of fractured sculpture and splin tered human bones. Here und there a letter of somo elaborate inscription, a toe or car of .a statue that onco stood In niche of palace wall. Ezekiel proph esied its blotting out, and tho prophecy hits been fulfilled. "Rldo on," I said to our p.trty, "and don't wait for mo." And as I stood '3a v 'I flNm. . . .. J I BARRELS OF MONE BY there Is no God but God. I bear wit- thero alone tho city of Memphis In the ness that Mohammed 13 tho apostle of I dory of past centuries returned. And' God. Como to prayers. Como to sal vation. God Is great. Thero is no other but God. Prayers aro better than and Edoulc grandeur and sweetness. Apollos. the eloquent, whom In Now Testament times somo people tried to make a rival to Paul, lived hero. Hero Mark, the author of the second book of tho New Tcotninont, expired under Nero's anathema. From hero tho ship : sailed that left Paul and tho crow struggling In the breakers of Melita. Pompoy's pillar is hero, about ono hundred feet high, its baso surrounded by so much filth and squalor I wasglad to escape into an air that was breath able. This tower was built in honor of Diocletian for sparing tho rebellious citizens. After having declared that he would make the blood run to his horso's knees, and his horse fell with him into the blood and his knees red dened, tho tyrant took it for granted that was a sign ho should stop the massacre, ana licnco tins commemora tive pillar to his mercy. This is the city to which Omar cume after building fourteen hundred mosques and destrpying four thousand Tho skv and tho palm craves and river shipping were bathed In the light. It was not much of 11 craft that we boarded. It would not bo hailed on any of our rivers with any rapture of admiration. It fortunately had but lit tle speed, for twice wo ran aground and tho sailors Jumped into tho water and on their shoulders pushed her out. But what yacht of gayest sportsman, what deck of swiftest ocean queen could mve such thrill of rapture as a sail on the NHo? The pyramids in sight, tho remains of cities that are now only a name, tho villages thronged with population. Both banks crowded with historical deeds of forty or sixty centuries. Oh, what a book the Bible Is when read on tho Nile I As wo slowly move up the majestic river I see on each bank the wheels, the pump, tho buckets for irrigation, and see a man with his foot on tho treadle of a wheel that fetches up the water for a garden, and tlion for tho first timo I understand that passage in fi.nmi.vi nnd tlilrfv.flvn f liniimnd vll- ueuceronomy wnicii says 01 uioxsraci- .....,... j ...- . - ..-..,.

An intelligent nativosald to Sir Sam uel W. Baker and wlfo as they woro on thoir way to accomplish that In which others had failed: "Glvo up tho mad seheino of tho NHo source. How would it bo possible for a lady young and del lcato to enduro what would kill tho strongest man? Giro It up." But tho work went on until Spcko and Grant and Baker found the two lakes which aro tho sourco of what was called tho Whlto Nile, and baptlzod theso two lakes with tho names of Victoria and Albert. Theso two lakes, filled by great rain falls and by accumulated snows from the mountains, pour their waters, ladon with agricultural wealth Buch as blesses no other river, on down ovor tho cata racts, on between frowning mountains, on between cities living and cities dead, on for four thousand miles and through a continent But tho White NHo would do Httlo for Egypt if this wcro all. It would keep its banks and Egypt would remain a desert But from Abyssinia thero comes what is called tho Bluo Nile, which, though dry or nearly dry half the year, under tremendous rains about tho middlo of Juno rises to great momentum, and this Blue NHo dashes with sudden in flux into the Whlto Nile, which In con sequence rises thirty feet, and their combined waters inundate Egypt with a rich soil which drops on all tho fields and gardens as It Is conducted by ditches and sluices and canals ovcry whither. The greatest damage that over came to Egypt camo by tho drying up of the Itlver NHo and tho greatest blessing by Its healthful and abundant ilow, Tho famlno In Joseph's tlmo camo from tho lack of MilHcIcnt inundation from tho Nile. Not enough Nllo is drouth, too much Nile Is froshet and plaguo. Tho rivers of tho earth aro tho mothers of its prosperity. If by some convulsion of uaturo tho Mississippi should bo taken from North America, or tho Am azon from South America, or tho Dan ube from Europe, or tho Yenlbel from Asia what hemispheric calamity I Still thero aro other rivers that could fer tlliro and savo these countries. Our own continent Is gulched, is rib boned, Is glorilled by inuumorablo water courses. But Egypt has only ono great river, ami that is hariuued to draw nil tho prosperities of realms in acreage semt-iudnlto. What hap pens to tho Nllo happens to Egypt. Tho Nllometor was to me very sugges tive as wo went up and down Its damp stone stops and saw tho pillar marked with notches telliug Just how high or low aro tlio waters of tho Nile. When tho Nile Is rising, four criers every morning rim through tlio city unnouuo Ing how many feet tho river has risen tea feet, fifteen feet, twenty feet, t,wenty-fonr feet and whou the right height of water Is reached the gates of tho canals are Hung open and tho liquid and refreshing benediction U pro nounced on all the land. A -WONDUItVlUi KUU'l UA1K.NT Ok 1'1101'IIKOY. As wo start where tho NHo empties Into tlio Mediterranean wn we behold wonderful fulllllment of prophecy. Tho Nile hi very ancient times used to have j-en mouths. As the great river approached tho ea It entered tho tea nt scveu different place. Isaiah proph esied, "Tho Lord shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptltui ben and hull imitelt In the mjvii streams." The fact U thoy are all destroyed but two, and Herodotus Bald these two re KuUnlng ore artlllctal. Up the iilla wo IwUlgo; port of tho way by Egyptian mil train nd then by boat, nud we i ' camel with a sack of corn, a sack of (igsand u wooden plato, ail that he had kept for himself, and the diet to which ho had limited himself for most of the timo was bread and water.

In this city was tho greatest femalo lecturer tho world over saw Hyjmtia. But tlio lesson of virtuo that sho taught was obnoxious, and so tuey dragged nud scraped bones with sharp oyster shells and then burned tho frag ments of the massacred body. And hero dwelt Cleopatra, pronounced to bo tho beauty of all time although if her pictures aro correct I havo seen a thousand women In Brooklyn more at tractive and she was as bad as sho was said to bo handsome.

Julius Cmsar conquered tlio world, yet sho conquered Julius Cicsar. cosquKiion of hooks. But Alexandria, fascinating for tills or that thing, according to tho taste of tho visitor, was to mo moftt entertain ing because It had been tho site of tho greatest library that tlio world ever saw, considering tlio fact that tho art of printing had not boon invented. Soven hundred thousand volumes, and all tho work of a slow pen. But down it all went under tho torch of besiegers. Built again and destroyed again. Built again, but tlio Arabs came along for Its final demolition, and tho four thou sand baths of tho city woro heated with theso volumes, tho fuel lasting six months, and woro ever Arcs kindled at such fearful cost? What holocausts of tho world's literature? What martyr dom of books I How many of them havo gono down under tho rago of na tions. Only ono book has been ablo to with stand tho bombardment, and that has gone through without smell of tiro on Its lids. No sword or spear or musket for its defense An unarmed Now Tes tament An unarmed Old Testament Yet Invulnerable and triumphant There must bo something supernatural about it Conqueror of books! Mon arch of books I All tho books of tho ages in all tho libraries outshono by this ono book which you and I can carry to church in a pockot. So me thought amid tho ashes of Alexandrian libraries. But all aboard the Egyptian rail train going up the hanks of the Nllo I Look out of tlio window and see those cam els kneeling for tho Imposition of their load. And I think wo might tako from thoin a lesson, and, Instead of trying to stand upright in our own strength, be come conscious 'of our weakness and need of dlvino help before wo tako upon us tho heavy duties of tho year or tho week or tho day, and so kneel for the burden. Wo meet processions of men and beasts on the way from their day's work, but alas for tho homes to which tlio poor inhabitants are going, for tho most part ho ols of mud. But thero Is something in tho scone that thoroughly enlists us. It la tho novelty of wretchedness and a sceuo of ploturesquo rags. For thou sands of years this land has been under a very damnation of taxes. Nothing but Christian civilization will roll buck tho iutluenoes which are "spoiling tho Egyptians." There aro gardens and palaces, but thoy belong to the rulers. About here, under tho valiant Murad Boy, the Mamelukes, who are thollnost lionMimeu In all tho world, camo like a hurricane upon Napoleon's army, but thoy wore beaten back by tlio French hi ono of tho fiercest battles of all time. Then tho Mamelukes tumod their hoiW hcuds tho other way, and lu des peration kicked them against tho French troops, hoping tho hones would kick tho life out of the French regl incuts. Tho Mamelukes falling again, plunged into this Nile and were drown ed, the French or days tilling out tho dead bodioa of tho Mamelukes to get tho valuables upon their bodies. Na poleon, at the daring of thoe Maine hikes, exclaimed, "Could I havo united Urn ilameluk tioree to tlia French In - , Egypt, "Tho land whither thou goest in to possess It Is not as tho land of Egypt from whence yo camo out, where thou sowedst thy seed and watcredst It with thy foot." Then I understood how the laud could bo watered with the foot. How do you suppose I felt when 011 the deck of that steamer on tho Nile I looked off upon tho canals and ditches and sluices through which tho fields are irrigated by that river, and then read in Isaiah, "Tho burden of Egypt; tho river shall bo wasted and dried up and thoy shall turn the rivers faraway and tho brooks I heard tho rush of her chariots, and tho dash of her fountains, and the con viviality of her palaces, and taw the drunken nobles roll on the Doors of mo saic, whilo In startling contrast amid all the regaliticsof tho pl.ico I saw Pha raoh look up into tho faco of aged, rus tic Jacob, tho shepherd, saylntr. "How old art thou?" TUB CITY Of NO. But back to tho NHo and on and up till you reach Thebes, In Scripture called tlK City of No. Hundred gated Thebes. A quadrangular city four mUes from limit to limit. Four great temples, two of them Karnac and Lutor, onco mountains of eiquisite sculpture and gorgeous dreams solidified in stone.

Then sho went down in fulfillment of Ezekiel's prophecy concerning the City of No, which was another name for Thebes: "I will esceuto Judgment in No. I will cut oil the multitudes of No." Jere miah also prophesied, "Thus saith the Lord, I will punish the multitudes of No." This city of Thebes and all the other dead cities of Egypt iterato and reiter ate tlio veracity of the Script uies, tell IVIav be Saved BUYING CLOTHING, FLANNELS, BLANKETS, WOOL HOSE, ETC WOOLEN MILL STORE, 299 Com' I St. ATI TOU GET BETTER GOODS AT LOWER PRICES. crK.x rrjo-. iimmxBeMrBr&Bir&nran r3miBKsxeEjne that are the i InllueiiciM lium escape, mid fiat and although the Prometheus who ctini3 ol lieiiditur.i which there is no fato rules tho world, author does tell of was crucified on the ... .... ... .... i 01 uoienso snau oo empuou aim urieu i j,,,, tho wimo story which Moses and up; anu uiey Mian oo oroKcn m uie ; tho prophets told.

But I will put hooks In thy Jaws and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and 1 will bring thee up out of tho midst of thy rivers, and all tho fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales, and tho laud of Egypt shall bo desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am tho Lord, becauso ho hath said tho riyer is mino and I havo made It" AS IN UIHLK TIMK3, While sailing on this riverorstopping at ono of tho villages, wo seo peoplo on tho banks who verify the Blblo descrip tion, for they are now as thoy were In Biblo times. SUqos aro now taken off in rererenco to sacrod places. Chil dren carried astrido tho mother's shoul der as in Hagar's time. Women with profusion of Jowelry as when Rebecca was afilancod. Lentils sholled into tho pottogo, as when Esau sold his birth right to get such a dish. Tlio samo habits of salutation as when Josepli and his brethren fell on eaoh othors' necks, Courts of law held under big trees as In oldon times. People making bricks without straw, compelled by circum stances to uso stubblo Instead of straw. Flying over or standing on tho banks, as hi Scripture days, aro llamlngoes, os proys, eagles, pelicans, herons, cuckoos ami bullfinches. On all sides of this river sepulohors. Villages of sepulchers. Cities of sepulchors. Nations of sepul chers. And ono U tempted to call It an empire of tombs. I never saw such a placo as Egypt Is for graves. And noy we understand tho complaining sarcasm of tho Israelites when thoy wero on tho way from Egypt to Canaan, "Because thero are no graves In Egypt hast thou taken us away to dio in tho wilderness?" Down tho river bank como tho buffalo and tho cattle or kino to drink, and it was tho ascestors of theso cattlo that Inspired Pharaoh's dream of tho loan kino and tho fat kino. Here wo disembark a Httlo while for Memphis, off from tho Nllo to tho right Memphis founded by tho first king of Egypt and for a long while tho capital. A city of marblo and gold.

A necropolis called "tho how God kept back these arclueological confirmations of the Biblo until our time, when the air is full of unbelief about the truthfulness of tlio dear old book?

"Ruins of Palestine and Syria, is tho New Testament true?" "True!" respond tho ruins all tho way fioin Joppa to tho Dead sea, and from Jei iisalem to Damascus. "What a mercy that this testimony of the dead cities should como at a time when the Biblo is especially assailed. And this work will go on until tho ve racity and divinity of tho Scriptures will be ascertain to all sensible men and women as that two anil two mako four, as that an isosceles triangle is ono which hr.3 two of its sides equal, as that the diameter of a circle is a lino drawn through tho center and ter minated by tho circumference as cer tain as any mathematical demonstra tion. Never did 1 fool moro encouraged than when after preaching a sermon on evidences of the truth of tho Biblo drawn from oriental lands. A distin guished senator of tho United States, known and honored everywhere, but now deceased, camo up "to tho plat form and said, "I was brought up in tlio faith of Christianity, but I got speculating on all theso subjects and hud given up my faith in tho Bible, but those facts and arguments archasolog ical tako mo back to my old faith in tho Bible, which my father and mother taii;ht mo " Tlio tears rolling down his cheeks evinced tho depth of his emotion. When I read of thosenator's dath 1 was comforted to think that perhaps I may have helped him a Httlo h) tho strugglo of his life, and perhaps given him an easier pillow on which to die, ' A VALUAULB BOOK. Two great nations, Egypt and Greece, diplomatized and almost camo to bat tle for ono book, a copy of "iEschylus." Ptolemy, tho Egyptian king, discovered that In tho great library at Alexandria there was no copy of "iEschylus." Tho Egyptian king sent up to Athens, Greece, to borrow tho book and mako a copy of It. Athens demanded a do posit of seventeen thousand sovon hun dred dollars as security. Tho Egyptian king received tho book, but refused to return that which ho had borrowed, and so forfeited tho seventeen thousand seven hundred dollars. Tho two nations roso in contention concerning that ono book. Beautiful and mighty book, Indeed! But It is s book of horrors, tho dominant idea OLDEST MOUSE In tho State. CLOCKS AND JEWELRY.

If two na tions could afford to struggle for one copy of "iEschylus," how much more can all nations afford to struggle for tho possession and triumph of tho Holy Scriptures? But the dead cities strung along the Nile not only demolish infidelity, but thunder down the absurdity of the modern doctrine of evolution which says tlio world started with nothing and then rose, and human nature be gan with nothing but evolved into splendcd manhood and womanhood of itself. Nay; the sculpture of tho world was more wonderful in the days of Memphis and Thebes and Cartilage than in tlio days of Boston and New York. Those blocks of stone, weighing throe hundred tons, high up in tho wall at Karnac, imply machinery equal to if not surpassing tho machinery of tho Nineteenth century. How was that statuo of Rameses, weighing eight hun dred and eighty-seven tons, transport ed from tho quarries, two hundred miles away, and how was it lifted? Tell us, modern machinists. How wero those galleries of rock, still standing at Thebes, filled with paintings surpassed by no artist's pencil of tho present day? Tell us, artists of the Nineteenth cen tury. Tlio dead cities of Egypt, so far as they have left enough pillars of statues or sepulchers or temple ruins to tell tho story Memphis, Migdol, Hier opolis, Zoan, Thebes, Goshen, Carthago all of them developing downward in stead of upward. They have evoluted from magnificence into destruction. Tho gospel of Jesus Christ is tho only elevator of individual and social na tional character. Let all the living cities know that pomp and opulenco and temporal prosperity are no security. Thoso ancient cities lacked nothing but good morals. Dissipation and sin slew them, and unless dissipation and sin are halted they will somo day slay our modern cities, and leave our palaces of merchandise, and our galleries of art, and our city halls as flat in tho dust as wo found Memphis on tho afternoon of that Thanksgiving day. And if tho cities go down the nation will go down. "Oh," you say, "that is Impossible; wo havo stood so long yea, over a hun dred years as a natiom" Why, what of that? Thebes btood flvo hundred years; Memphis stood a thousand years. God does not forget. Ono day with the Lord is as a thousand years and a thousand years as ono day. Rum and debauchery and bad poli tics are moro rapidly working tho de struction of our American cities than sin of any kind and all kinds worked for tlio destruction of tho cities of Afri ca, onco so mighty and now so pros trate. But their gods wero idols, and could do nothing except for debase ment Our God made the heavens and sent his Son to redeem tho nations. And our cities will not go down, and our nation will not perish, becauso tho Gospel is going to triumph. Fowardl all schools and colleges and churches) Forward ! all reformatory and mission ary organizations. Forward I all the Influences marslmled to bless tho world. Let our modorn European and Aiuorlcan cities listen to tho voico of thoso ancient cities resurrected, and by hammer and chisel and crowbar bo compelled to speak. VOICES mOM TIIB PAST. I notice tho volco of thoso ancient cities is hoarso from tho exposure of forty centuries, and they accentuate slowly with lips that woro palslod for ages, but all together thoso cities along tho NHo Intono theso werds: "Hear us for wo aro very old, and It Is hard for us to speak. Wo were wise long before Athens learned her first lesson. We sailed our ships whilo yot navigatiou was unborn. Theso obelisks, theso pyr amids, theso fallen pillars, these wrecked temples, thoso colossi of black granite, theso wrecked sarcophagi under tho brow of tho hills, tell you of what I was In grandeur and of what I am coming do-vntobo. Wo sinned and wo fell Our learning oould not save us. See thoso half obliterated hieroglyphics ou yon der wall. Our architecture could not savo us: See tho painted columns of Phllw and tho shattored temple of Es noh. Our heroes could not 6a ve us: Witness Munos, Dlodorus, Rameses and Ptolemy. Our gtxls, Ainmou and Pjlris, co-Jd not sae us." See their fallen temples all along tho four thou sand miles of Nile. Oh, yo modorn oltlos, get wmio oiher God a God who can help, a God who eau pardon, a God who can savo. Colled up as wo are for a. little while to give testimony, again the sands of the desert will bury us. Ahestoahes,ddttodust!" And as these voices of porphyry and granite ceased, all tho sarcophagi under tho hills responded, "Ashes to ashcsl" and the capital of u lofty column foil, grind ing itself to powder under tho rocks, and responding, "Dust to dustl" The increase in traffic on tho Suez canal causes serious delays. Tho com pany has begun to widen the canal and the work will bo completed in about two years. British ships and cargoes lost every year at sea are valued at about $100,-000,000.
