Moses was a lawgiver, Daniel v .is

TIUB SOLITUDE OF AMOS.
What a lifo of eolltudo, all aloro
vrith his hordsl Poor AmosJ And
at twolvo o'clock at night, hark to
tho wolf's bark, and tho lion's roar,
and tho bear's growl, and tho owl's
te-wbit-to-wbo, ami tho BorjKmt'fl hiiw
hs ho unwittingly stops too near
while moving through tlio tliickot.il
So Amos, liko othor hordsmon, got
th luibit of studying tho map of tlio
beavens, bocauso it was so much of
tho time spread oufboforohim. Ho
noticed somo Btjira advancing and
others receding. IIo associated their
dawn and sotting with certain sea
sons of tlio year. Ho had a poetic
saturo, and ho road night by night
and month by month and year by
year tlio poem of tlio constellations,
divinely rhythmic.
But two rosettes of stars especially
attracted his attention whilo seated
on tlio ground or lying on his back
under tho open scroll of tlio midnight
lieavous tho Pleiades, or Sovon
Stars, and Orion. Tho former group
thia rustio prophot associated with
tho spring, as it rises about tho first
of May. Tlio latter ho associated
with tho winter, as it comes to
tko meridian iu January, Tho Plei
ades, or So von Stars, connected with
all swootneas and joy, Orion, tlio
herald of tho tempest Tho ancloutH
woro tho moro apt to study tho

What a Bcdativo to you and mo, to
whom communities and nations oijio
timos seem going polhnell, and world
ruled by sdino fiond at haphitzard,
and in all direcHons malatlmi'istra
tion! The God who keeps woven
.voiids in light circuit for six thou
riauil years can cortainly keep all the
affairs of individuals and nations
and continents in adjustment. Wo
had not bettor fret much, for tho
peasant's argument of tho text was
right. If God can tako caro of tlio
sovon worlds of tho Ploiadcs and tho
four chief worlds of Orion, ho can
probably tako caro of tho ono world
wo inhabit
So 1 feel very much as my father
felt ono day when wo wero going to
tho country mill to get tho grist
ground, and I, a boy of seven years,
sat in tho back part of tho wiigon,
and our yoko of oxou ran away with
us and along a labyrinthino road
throng li the woods, so that I thought
ovory moment wo would lo dashed
to pieces, and I mado a torriblo out
cry of fright, and my fattier turned
to mo with a faco perfectly calm and
said. "Do Witt, what aro you crying
about? I guess wo can rldo as fast
as tho oxen can run." And, my
hearers, why should wo bo affrighted
and loso our equilibrium hi Uio swift
movomont of worldly events, espe
cially when wo aro assured that it is
not a yoko of unbroken Btoers Uiat
aro drawing us on, but that order
and wiso govonimontaroin tho yoko?
GOD'S INFINITE ORDER.
In your occupation, your mission,
your sphoro, do tho best you can and
Uion trust to God, and if things aro
all mixed and diBquioUng, and your
brain is hot and your heart sick, got
somo ouo to go out with yon into the
starlight and point out to you the
Pleiades, or, hotter than that got into
somo observatory and Uirough tho
telescope boo further Uian Amos with
tho naked oyo could namely, two
hundred stain in tho Pleiades, and
Uiat in what is called Uio Bword of
Orion thoro is a nobula computed to
bo two trillion two hundred thousand
billions times larger than Uio mm.
Oh, bo at peaco with God who mado
all that and controls all that tho
wheel of tho constellations turning
m Uio wheel of galaxies for Uiou
sands of years without Uio breaking
of a cog or tho slipping of a band or
Uio snap of an axlo. For your pla
cidity and comfort through tho Jxrd
JesiiB Christ I cliargo you, "Sook him
Uiat makoth Uio Sovon Stars and
Orion."
Again, Amos saw as wo nuiBt seo,
Unit tho God who mado thoso two
groups! of tho toxt was tho God of
light Amos saw that God was not
satisfied wiUi making ono Btar, or two
orthroo Btars, but ho makes Bovon;
and, having finished Uiat group of
worlds, makes anoUior group group
af tor group, To Uio Ploiades ho adds
Orion. It Booms Uiat God likes light
bo Well that ho koops making it Only
ono boing in tho univorso knows tho
statistics of Bolar, lunar, Btollar, mo
teorio creations, and Uiat is Uio Croa
tor himself. And Uioy havo all been
loviugly christened, each ouo a name
as distinct as tho names of your chil
dren. "IIo tolloth tho uumbor of tho
Btars; ho calloth Uicm all by Uieir
names." Tho bovoii Ploiades hod
names given to tiiom, and thoy aro
Aloyono, Moropo, Coliono, Eloctra,
Storopo, Taygoto and Mala.
But Uiink of Uio billions nnd tril
lions of daughters of starry light Uiat
God calls by name as Uioy swoop by
him with beaming brow and lustrous
robo I So fond is God of light natu
ral light moral light spiritual light
Agaiu and again is light hnrnpsuod
for BymlKillEaUon Christ, Uio bright

Uio daybreak ; Uio redemption of na

wiUi healing in his wings, O men
and women, wiUi so many sorrows
and slus and jwrploxitieti, if you want
light of comfort light of iiardon,
light of goodmws, in earnest prayer
Uirough Christ "whw Win that
make Ui tho Sovon Stars and Orion."
WITHOUT VAIUJUILKNESS.
Again, Amos saw, as wo must boo,
Uiut Uio God who mado Uicoo two
archi'tolagoes of stars must bo an un
changing God. Thoro hail boon uo
change In Uio stellar nppearuuco In
this horumau s uruumo, ana his fa
thor, a shepherd, reported to him
that thoro hud lecn no change In Ms
lifetime. And thto two clusters
hung over tho celestial nrlor now
jiwt as thoy woro tho first night Unit
thoy Bhona ou uio buonlo bo worn;
tho ramo as when tho Egyptians
built thp Pyramids, from Uio top of
which to watch thorn; tho sumo as
whon tho Chaldeans calculated tho
eclipse; Mm mm m whoa Elihu,
ftccordiag to the C6ok of Job, wont

Copcnu'atu byntem; tho samo from
Ualuithencs to Pythagoras, and from
Pythafjoras to Hcrschol. Surely a
chongeloes God miiBt havo fashioned
tho Ploiades and Orion I Oh, what
an nnodyno amid tho ups and downs
of lifo and Uio flux and reflux of Uio
tides of prosperity to laiow Uiat wo
L avo a chaugeloss God, tho same yes
t nlay, tod.iy and forever 1"
Xerxes garlanded and knighted Uio
steersman of his boat in tho morn
ing and hanged him in thoovening
of tho samo day. Tlio world sits in
its chariot and drives tandem, and
tho horso ahead is Huzza and tho
horee behind is Anathema. Lord
Cobhara, in King James' timo, was
applauded, and liad thirty-fivo thou
sand dollai-s a year, but was after
ward oxecratou, and uvea on scraja
stolen from tho royal kitchen. Alex
ander the Great after death remained
unburied for thirty days, because no
ono would do tho honor of shoveling
him under. Tho Duke of Wellington
refused-to havo his iron fence mend
ed, because it had boon broken by an
infuriated populace in somo hour of
political excitement, and ho loft it in
ruins that men might learn what n
fioklo thing is human favor. "But
tho mercy of Uio Lord is from over
lasting to everlasting to Uio:n Uiat
fear him, and his righteousness unto
tho children's cldldren of buch as
keop his covenant, and to those who
remombor his commandments to do
them." This moment "Seek him
that maketh tho Sovon Stars and
Orion,"
Again, Amos Baw, as wo must eeo,
that tho God who mado these two
beacons of tho oriental night sky
must bo a God of lovoand kindly
warning. Tlio Pleiadcd using in mi
sky said to all tho herdsmen and
shophordB and husbandmen, "Como
out and enjoy tho mild weather, and
cultivate your gardens and fields."
Orion, coming in whiter, warned
them to prepare for tempest. All
navigation was regulated by tiieso
two constellations. Tho ono said to
jhipmaster and crow, "Hoist sail for
tho sea and gather merchandise from
other lands." But Orion was tho
jtorm signal and said, "Reef sail,
aiako things snug, or put into har
bor, for tho hurricanes aro getting
thoir wings out." As the Ploiades
were tho sweot cvangel6 of Uio
spring, Orion was the warning
prophot of tho winter.
GOD'S LOVK AND JUSTICE.
Oh, now 1 got tho best viow of God
I over had I Tlioi-o aro two kinds of
sonnous I nover want to preach tho
ono that presenta God bo kind, so in
dulgent, so lonient, so imbocilo Uiat
men may do what they will against
him, and fracture his ovory law, and
put the piy of their importinonco and
rebollion undor his tiirono, and whilo
thoy aro spitting in his faco and
stabbing at his heart ho takes them
up in hiQ arms and kisses thoir in
furiated brow and chock, Baying, "Of
such is tho kingdom of heaven." Tlio
otiier kind of sermon I nover want
to preach is tho.ono that represents
God as all flro and torture and
thundercloud, and with red hot
pitchfork tos3mg tho human raco into
paroxysms of infinito agony. Tho
Bonnon that 1 am now preaching bo

warniug, tho God of spring and

THE HEAVENLY MANSIONS.
When I road, "In my Father's
house aro many mansions," I do not
know but Uiat each world is a room,
and as many rooms as there are
world's, Btellar stairs, stellar galler
ies, stellar hallways, stellai windows,
stellar domes. How our departed
frionds must pity us shut up in Uiese
cramped apartments, tired if we
walk fifteen miles, when they some
morning, by ono stroke of wing, can
make circuit of tho whole btellar sys
tem and bo back in timo for matins I
Porhaps yonder twinkling constella
tion is tho residenco of Uio martyrs;
that group of twelve luminaries is
Uio celestial homo of tho Aposties.
Porhaps that steep of light is the
dwelling place of angels cherubic,
seraphic, archangolic. A mansion
with a3 many rooms as worlds, and
all their windows illuminated for fes
tivity. Oh, how this widens and lifts nnd
stimulates our expectation I Kow littlo
it makes tho present, and how stu
pendous it makes tho f uturo I How
it consoles us about our pious dead,
who, instead of being boxed up and
undor tho ground, havo Uio rango of
as many rooms as there aro worlds,
and welcome ovcrywhoro, for it is
the Father's house, in which thoro

of tho Seven Stare and Orion, how
can I endure tho tmnspoit, tho ec

mind that it is not tho material uni
vorso Uiat is most valuable, but Uio
spiritual, and that each of ua has a
soul worth moro than all tho worlds
which Uio inspired herdsman saw
from his booth on Uio hills of Tokoa.
I had Btudied it boforo, but Uio ca
thedral of Cologue, Germany, nover

saw it. It is admittedly tho grandest
GoUiic structure in tho world; its
foundation laid in 1248, only eight or
nino years ago completed. Moro than
six hundred years in building. All
Europo taxed for its construction. Its
chapel of tho Magi with precious
6tones enough to purchaso a king
dom. Its chapel of St. Agnes with
masterpieces of painting. Its Bpiro
springing fivo hundred nnd oloven
foot into tho heavens. Its stained
glass tho chorus of all rich colors.
Statues encircling Uio pillars and en
circling all. Statues abovo Btatues

Nuyo aud aisles and transept and

But whilo Btaudiug there I saw a
