Dr. Talmage's foreign reiching:tour, has been a very busy one. since July 24th, when he preached Eih the English and American Church iti Berlin, while en route from Russia te Scotland, Dr. Talmage can scarcely be said tea have had a moment's leisure. Services have hem held at Edinburgh, Inverness, Aberdeen, Dundee, Glascow, Newcastle and Sunderland. The sermon for this Week ii entitled, "The ,Glorious -March," the text being from Solomon's Song, &:1O: "Fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible ae an army with banner." , The fragrance of spikenard, the flash of jewels, the fruitfulness of orchards the luxitrianoe of gardenia the beauty of Hesu- bon fish -pools, the dew of the night, and the splendor of the morniiig-eall con- tribute to the richnene of Solomon's style *hen he comes to speak of the glory oi the Church. In contrast with ; his en- logium of the Church, look at the dentine ciatory thiegs that are said in our day _in regard nh it. If one stockholder become a eheat, does that destroy the whole company? If one soldier he a coward, does that condemn the whole army? And yet there are many in this day so "unphilosophic, so illogical, iso dis honest, and so. unfair as to denounce the entire Church of God because there are here and there bad men belonging to it. There are those who lay that the Church ,of God is not up to the spirit of the day in which ate live ; but I have to tell you that not- withstanding an the swift wheels, and the flying shuttles-, and the lightning commuoi- cations, the world has never Yet been able_ to keep up with the Church. As high ae God is above roan, so high is the Church ol Goda-higher than all human institutions. From her lamp the best discoveries of the world have- been lighted. The best of our , inventors- have believed in the Christian religion—the Fultens, the Morsen the Whitneys, the Peerys and the Livingstones. She hat owned the best of the telescopes and the Leyden mjart; and while infidelity and atheism have gone blindfolded among the most startling dis- coveries that were about to be developed, the earth and the air and. the sea have made -quick anci magnificent responses to Chiaistain -philosophers. The world will not be up to the Church of Chrie thuntil the day when all merchan- dise has *comehonest merchandise, and 'all governments have become free govern- ments, and all nations evangelized nations, and the last deaf ear of spiritual death shall be broken open by the million -voiced shoal ofnations born in a day. The Church that Nebuchadoezzar tried to burn in the fernace, and Darius to tear to pieces with the lions, and Lord Claverhouse to cut with the word has gone on, wading the floods and enduing the fire, until the deepest bar- barian, told the fiercest cruelties, and the blackestauperatitions have been compelled to look to the East, crying, "Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moose, clear as the sun, and terrible as any army with banners ?" Yet there are people who are ashamed he belong to the Church of Christ, and if you ask them whether they arein such associa- tions, they say, "Yes, I sometimes attend the Church ;" instead of realizing the fact that there is no honor coinpared with the honor of being a member of the Church of God, I look back with joy to the most honored. moment of my life, when in the old country meeting -house the minister of Christ announced my name as a follower of the jrcord. You who are fioating about in the world, seeking for batter associations, why do you not join yourself. to some of the churches? .An old sea-captaiii was riding in the oars toward Philadelphia and a young main sat down beside him. He said, "Young man, where are you going ?" "I am going to Philadelphia, to liver" replied the young man. "Ife,ve ybealetters of introduction ?' asked the old."-' captain. "Yes," said the noting man ; and he pulled some of them out, "Well,"'said the old sea -captain, "haven't you a church certificate ?""Oh, yes," replied the,young men; "I didn't suppose you would want he look at that." "Yes," -said the sea -captain, "I want to see that." As socie as you get to Philadelphia, preset it to some -Christian church. 1 am an old sailor, and 1 lia,ve been up and; down in the world, and it's my rule, as soon as I get into port to fasten my ship fore and aft to the wharf, although it may cost a little wharfage, rather than have my ship oat in the stream floating hither and thither Nvith the tide." - . 0, men' and women, by the tides of fri- volity and worldliness swept this way and swept that way, seeking for associations and foo satisfactions for the immortal soul, come into the church of Jesus 'Christ. Lash fastto her. She is the pillar and the ground of truth.- I propose to speak of the three- fold glory of the cherch, as it is described ha th.e text : First, "lair as the moon." God, who has detennined that everything shall be beautiful in its season, has not left the .night without charm The moon rules the night. The stars are only set as gems in her tiara. Sometimes before the sue has gone down the moon inoents her thtone, bat it is after nightfall that she sway a her undieputed sceptre over island and. centi- nent, river and sea. Under her shining the plainest nutpleleaxes become shivering( sil- ver, the lakes from shore to shore look like shining mirrore, and the „ocean uneled her glance with great tides comes up pa4ting upon the beach, inirgling, as it were, :foam and fire. Under the •witchey of the moon, the awfultinteeps loae their ruggedness, and the chasms their terror. The poor man blghses God for throwing so cheap a light thrOugh the broken window -pane of his cabin, and to the sick it seems like, a light from, the other shore thatnbounds this great (teen of human pain and woe. If the sun be Hike a. song, full and loud and poured. fhoth from brazen instruments that fill heceen and earth with harmony, the moort is plaintive and. sad, standing beneathethe t hione of God, Fief:ding up her soft, seteet voice of praise; while the stars listen h-nd the sea ! /iornother ever more Iovifteelv watched a sick cradle than this tele watch of the sky bends over the SYCFV, heart -sick, slumbering earth, shiging tia it silvery :music, ?while it is .rooked in he cradle of the spheres. Now, says my text, fc.Who is she, aeir as the moon ?" Our ondwer is the Chuneh. Like the moon, she is ea, borrowed She gathers up the Flork, of a Sa,viceir's sufferings, a Saviour s death, a Sa,viohr s teeurrection, a Saviour's -ascension, rtad pours that light on palace and dungen, on squalid_ heat henhen and elaborate sceptic:ism, on widow's tears and martyr's robe of flame, on weeping peuitmace and loud -mouthed scorn. She is the only institation to -day that' gives any light to our 'world. Into tier portal the poor come and get the svinpataty of a once pillowless •Christ, • the hereatfed come and see the bottle in which God saves all our tears, and the captives come, andam theaharp coraers of her altars dash eft' their chains, and the thirsty come and put thSfir cup under the "Rock of Ages," whirl ponrs forth loom its smitten side living watar, from :under the throne of God nd Le oand tlett oefliz :eo • _fesanneenionesmomanei shitri to -prayer.

Church has made her mild way, "Fair as the moon." ' I take a step further in my subject -e -"Clear as the suri." After a season of, storm or fog, how you are thrilled when the sup come s out at noonday 1 , The mists travel up hill above -hill, mountain above MOM- tain, until they are skar log. The foreste are full of chirp arid buzz and song ; honey - makers on the log, bird's beak pounding the bark, the chatter of the squirrel on the rail, the call of a hawk out of the clear sky, make you thankful for the sunshine which makes all the world so busy riael. :so glad.

"Let there he light. Now, says ,my text, "Who is she that -looketh fortlaclear as the .sun ?" Our an- swer is, the Church. You have been going along the road before daybreak, and on, one side y•ou thought you 'haw a lion, and .on the other side you thought you saw a ghb- lin of the darkness, but when the pun caine out yen found these ;were harmless appari- tions. And it is the great eniseion of the Church of Jesus Christ to come, forth "clear as the sun," to illtimine all earthly' dark- ness, to explain, as far as possible, all - mys- tery, andeto make the world radiant in its brightness ; and that. which you thought was an aroused lion is found out to be a slumbering lamb, and the sepulchre gates of your dead turn out to be the opening gates of Heaven; and that which you supposed was a flaming sword tt keep you out of paradise, is an angel of light to.beckon you in. • The lamps on her altars will cast, their glow on your darkest pathway, and cheer you until far beyond the need of lantern or lighthouse, you are eafely anchoredwithin the veil. • 0, sun of the Church ! i -shine on until there is ne sorrow to soothe; no tears to wipe away, no almokles to break, no more souls to be recleaned. Ten thousand hands of sin have attempted' to extinguish: the lamps on her altars, but they are quench- less ; and to silence her pulpits but the 'thunder would leap and the lightr:ing would flame. , , . The Church of God will yet come to full meridian, and in that day all the mountains of the wonld will be :etched mountains, touched with tie glory of Calvary, and all streams will flow by the mount of God like cool Siloam, an/ball lakes be radiant with Gospel memories like Genhesaret, and all Wands of the seethe crowned with apocalyp- tic vision like Patmos,, aftd all cities be sacred as Jerusalem, and all gardens luxu- riant aa Paradise, with God walking in the cool of the desy.

An artist's rule is to 'color its : Choose carefully only those tints of Which a dupli- cate may be found in the hair, the eyes or the complexion. A woman with blue grey eyes and a thin neutral -tinted complexion it aever more becomingly dressed` than in the blue shades in which grey ih- .mixed, for in these complexions there is a certalo deli- cate blueness. A brunette is never et) .ex- quiste as in cream color, for she has rapro- duced the tinting Of her skin in lienjiress. Put the same dress on a colorless bloittle and she will be far from charming, Whele in grey she would be quite the reverse. t. The reason is plain. In the b1onde7o sal- lowness there are tints of grey, and *iee the dark womatra pallor there are alma)1 yel- lowish tones, the same • as predominefn ;hi the `create -colored dress.

A Rockland, Mnsmachusetts, clergyman recently gave an irate teamster a lessoo' in kieduess and in driving horses at the Sone time. The teamster had pounded a ba*y horse until he was tired, when the c,leregy- man happened along and reproved him, " But I have to lick him," said the teamster, " he won't draw a pound unlems I do." "10, yes, he will pull, I guess," said the clergy- man ; I can make him pull," And, arrayed in his plug hat and sober, clerical -hooking suit, he stepped out into the muddy strict and took the reins, while the teamster grinned, and passers-by stopped to see hew the amateur teamster would get along.. BAIN says the Rockland Opinion, -his reverence showed himself master of the situatiou. ' ile spoke to the animal kihdly and firmly.; he did not use the whip nor evehawear at him. Indeis than a minute, as soon as the bri te found out that he was in the hands of an expert thamater, who was determinedlto have that load enove on, Mr. florae straight- ened out and wa Icedoff as quiet as you please.
