Latest Sermon- The Lan - gums of the Text so Bold and Jiill of Imagery that- the Preacher has tomaath-, er up Courage to Enlarge Upon, -The Lord's Holy Arm. BROOKLYN, Jan. Z.—Singularly etp- propriate and impressive was the old Gospel hymn as it was stand this morning by the thousands of Brooklyn Taber- nacle, led on by coariet and organ te-- . Arm_of the Lord. awake, awake! Put on thy strength, the nations shake. Rev. Dr. Talmage took for -his subject, "The Bare Arm of God," the text being Isaiah 52 : 10:—" The Lord hath made bare His holy arm.'" It almost takes our breath away to read some of the Bible imagery. There is such boldness of metaphor in my text that I have been for some time getting niy courage up to -preach firm it. Isaiah, the evangelistic prophet, is sound- ing the Jubilate of our planet redeemed, and cries out, "the Lord hath Made bare: His holy arm." What overwhelming suggestiveness in that figure of speech, "The hare, arm of God !" The people of Palestine to this day wear much hinder- ing apparel, and AN hen they want to run a special race, or lift a spccial burden, or fight a special battle, they -put off the outside apparel, as in our land, when a man proposes a special exertion, he puts off his coat and rolls up his sleeves. Walk throng!' our foundries, our ma- chine shops, our mines, our factories, and you will find that -most of the toil. ers have their coat off and their sleeves rolled up. Nothing more impresses me oin the Bible than the ease with which God does most things. There is such a re- serve of power. He has more thunder- bolts than he has ever flung ; more light than he hassever distributed; more blue than that with Nellie!' he llas over -arch- ed the sky ; more green than that with which he has emeralded the grass; more crimson than that with which he has bumiehed the sunsets. I say it with re- verence: From all I can see, God- has never half tried. You knoty as well as I do that meny of the most elaborate and expensive in- , dustries of our world have been employ- ed in creating' artficial light Half of the time the world isalark. The moon and the stars have their -glorious uses, but as instruments of illumination they -are failures. They will not allow you to read a book, or slop the ruffianism of your great, cities. Had not the darkness Leen persister My fought hack by artifi- cial means, the most 6f the world's enterprises would have halted half the time, ‘vhile the 'crime of our great municipalities would for half the time run rampant and uprebuked. Hence, all the inventions for creatink artificial 'light, froth the flint struck agaiust steel in centuries past, to the dynamo of our elect ri6al. manufactories. What un- COUll te I numbersof people are at, work the year round in making chandeliers, tied lamps, and fixtures, and wires, and batteries where light-aball be made, or along which light shall Am, or vhere light shall poise ! -How Amoy bare armi of liumall toil—anti some of those bare arms are very tired—in the creation of light and its apparatus; and after all the utak, the greater part of the eontinents. and hemispheres at night have no light at all, except perhaps the fire -flies flash- ing their sniall lanterns across the swamp. But gee how easy God made the light. He did not Make bare his arms; He did not even put forth his robed arm; Ele did not lilt so much as a finger. The flint out of Which He struck the noon- day sun was the word, "Light." "Let there be light!' Adam did not see the Sun until the fourth day, for, though the sun was created on the first day, it took its rays from the first to the fourth to work. through the .dense mass of fluiss by which this earth Was compose - ed. Did you ever hear of anytlung as easy as that? So unique? Out of a word came the blazing sun, the father of flewers and warmth and light? Out of a word -building a fireplace for all the nations of the earta to warm themselves by; Yee, seven other worlds, five of them Mconceivably larger than our own, and seventy-nine asteriods, or worlds on a smaller scale. The warmth and light for this great brotherhood, great sister- hood, great familyof; worlds, eighty - even larger or stnallek worlds. all from that one magnificient fire -place made out of the one world, "Light." The sun 886,000 Miles hadiameterl I do not know how much grander a Solar system God could have created if he had put forth his robed arm, to say nothing of at arm made. bare. But this I know, that our noonday sun was a spark struck from the anvil of one word, and that word— "Light." -Beta". says some one, "do you not thiek that, in making the machinery of the universe, of which our solar system is comparatively a Cmall wheel revolv- ing into mightier wheels, it must have cost God some exertion? The upheaval ae arm either robed or an arm made bare?" No ; we are distinctly told other- wise. The machinery a a universe God made sitnply vi1,h his fingers. David, in- spired in a night song,says so: '• When I consider Thy heavens the work of Thy fingers," A Scottish clerg-yrnan told me a few weeks ago of dysyeptic Thonias Carlyle walking out with a friend one starry night, and as the friend looked up and said, "What a splendid sky 1" Mr. Carlyle replied, as he glanced upward, "Sad sight, sad sight !" Not so thought David as he read the great scripture of the night heavens. It was a sweep .of embroidery, of vast' tapestry. God, manipulated. That is the allusion of the Pealinist to the woven hangings of tapestry, as they Were known long be- fore David's time. Far back in the ages what enchantment of tareadaatid color. the Florentine velvets of silk and geld and Persian carpets woven Of goat'e hair! If you have been in the Gobelin inant.n, factory of tapestry in Paris—alas 1 now no more—you witnessed wondrous • things, as you saw the woOden needle or brooch, going back and teak and ha and out; vou were transfixed AVith ad- miration at the patterns wrought. No wonder that Louis XIV. bought it and it .became the possession of the throne; and for a long while none but threues and palaces might have any of its work What triumphs of loom! What victory of skilled finers! SO David says of the heavens, that God's fingers wove into them the light; that God's fingers tapes- tried then with stare; that G-od's fingers embroidered them with worlds. How et itch of the immensity of the Heavens lht. V id understood 'I know not Asinine t 'my was born in China twenty-eight eliedretl years bei ore Christ was born.

Tho la-ran:ads were astronomical ouser va bales. a mi they were so long ago built that Isaiah refers to, one of -them in his niueteenili chapter, and calls it the "Pillar at the Burner.- ane nrst or au tire sciences oorn woe astronomy. Whether from Wag" - ledge already abroad, or from dire inspiration, it seems to me David had wide knowledge of the heavens. Whether he .understood the full force -of what he wrote, I know not; but the God who inspired him knew, and He would not let write writhing but truth; and therefore all the worlds that the telescope ever reached, or Cdpe ernicus, or Galileo, or Kepler. or Newton, or latplace, or Herschel, or our own Mitchell ever saw were so easily made that they were made with the fingers. As easily as With' your fingers you mould the wax, or the clay, or the dough to particular shades, so he decid- ed the shape of our world, and that it should weigh six sextillion tons, and ap- pointed for all worlds theirorbits and de - &led their color—the white to Sirius; the ruddy toAldebaran; the yellow to Pollux; the blue to Altair; marrying some of the stars as the -2,400 double stars- that Hers- chel observed; administering to the whims of the variable stars as their glance be- comes brighter or dim, preparing what astronomers °ailed "The girdle of Andro- meda, and the nebula in the sword han- dle of Orion. Worlds on worlds ! Worldir under worlds! Worlds above worlds 1 Worlds beyond world.! So many that arithmetics are of no use in the calcula- tion! But He counted them as He made them, and He made them with His fin- gers! Reservation of poWer! Suppression of Omnipotence 1- Resources as yet untouch- ed 1 Almightiness yet undemonstrated! Mthtext makes it plain that the rectifi- cation of this world is a stupendous un- dertaking. It takes more power to make this world over again than iv took to make it at first. A word was only ne- cessary for the first creation, but for the new creation the unsleeved and unhin- dered forearm of the Almighty? The reason of that I can understand. In the shipyards of Liverpool, ot Glasgow, or New York, a great vessel is constructed, The architect draw s out the plan the length of the beam, the capacity of ton- nage, the rotation of wheel or screw, the cabins, the masts and all the, appoint- ments of this great palace of the deep. 'The architect finishes his work without any perplexity, and the carpenters and the artisans toil on the craft so many hours a day, each one • doing has part, until'with flags flying, and thousands of people huzzaing on the docks the vessel is launched. But out on the sea that • steamer breaks her shaft, and is limping slowly along toward harbor, when Car- ibbean whirlwinds,those mighty hunters of the deep, looking out for prey of ships, surround that wounded vessel and pitch it on a rocky coast, and she lifts and falls in the breakers until every joint is loose, and every spar is down, and eveiy wave sweeps over the hurricane deck as she parts midships. Would it not require more skill and • power to get that splintered vessel off the rocks and reconstruct it than it requires originally to build her? Aye! Our world that God built so beautiful, and which started out with all the flags of Edenic foliage, and with the chant of Paradisaical bowers, has been sixty centuries pounding in the Skerries of sin and sorrow, and to get her out, and to get her off, and to get her on the right way again, will requir more of Omnipotence than .it require to build her and launch. her. So I a not surprised that, though in the dry- dock of one word our mind was made, it will take the unsleeved arm of God to lift her from the rocks and put her on the right course again. It is evident from my text, and its comparison with other texts, that it would not be so great an undertakininto make a whole constel- lation of worlds, and a whole galaxy of worlds, and a whole astronomy of worlds, and swing them in their right .orbits, as to take this wounded world, this stranded world, this bankrupt world, this destroyed world, and make it as good as when it started. Now, just look at the enthroned, diffi- culties in this way, the removal or which the overthrow of which seem to require the bare arm of Omnipotence. There stands heathenism, with its 860,- 000,000 victims. I do not care whether You call them Brahmin, or Buddhists, Confucians or Fetish idolaters. al.t the World's Fair in Chicago lastsummer those monstrosities of religion tried to make themselves respectable, But the long hair and baggy trousers and trin- keted robes of their representatives can- not hide from the world the fact that those religions are the authors of funeral pyre, and Juggernaut crushing, and Ganges infanticide, and Chinese shoe 'torture. and the aggregated massacres of many centuries. They havelheir heels on India, on China, on Persia, on Bor- neo, on three-fourths of the acreage of our poor old world. I know that the missionaries, who are the most sacrific- ing and Christ -like men and women on earth, are making steady and glorious inroads upon these built-up abominations of the centuries. All this stuff that you see in some of the newspapers 'about the missionaries as living in luxury and idleness is promulgated by corrupt American or English or Scotch mer- chants, whose loose behavior in heathen cities have been rebuked by the mission- aries, azid these corrupt merchants wri.e home or tell innocent and unsus- pecting visitors in India or China or the darkened islands of the sea these false - 'hoods about our consecrated mission- aries who, turning their back& on, home and civilization and emolumeat and comfort, spend their lives in trying to introduce the mercy of thettGospel among the down -trodden of heathenism. Some of these merchants leave their families in America or England or Scotland, and stay for a few years in the ports of heathenism while they are making their fortunes in the tea or ricc. or opium trade, and while they are thus absent from home, give themselves to orgies of dissoluteness, such as no pen or tongue could, without the abolition of all decency, attempt to report. The presence of the missionaries witk their pure aud .noble households in those heathen ports is a constant rebuke to such debauchees and miscreants. There,- too, stands Mohammedanism, with its 176,000,000 victims. Its Bible is the Koran, a book not quite as large as our New Testament, which was re- vealed to Mohammed when in epileptic fits, and resuscitated front these fits, he dictated it to scribes. Yet it is read to- day by more people than any other book ever written. Mohammed, the founder of that religion, a polygamist, with a superfluity of wives, Vie first step of his religion on the body, mind and soul of -woman'and no wonder that the Heaven of the Koran is an everlasting Sodom, an infinite seraglio, abont whicli aloha tie ined promises that each follewer shall have in that place seventy-two wiree, in addition to all tbe wives he had on earth, but that no old v.1n1; ever enter Heaven. What a Bishop of Eng- land recently proposed ti ea tee best woy of saving Mohammed:me "115 1() l ti keep their religion, but eegraft upon it some new principles fil.:111 '1. he perpetrated an ecclesi..slic-al jc:ke, t which no man can laugh who has ever seen the tyranny and domestic wretch- edness which always appear where that religion gets foothold. It has marched across continents, and now proposes to set up its filthy and accursed banner in America. and whatit has done for Tur- key it would like to do for our nation.

TO rebuke that pessimism, the Gospel of -Sinash-litt, I preach this sermon, show- ing that you are on the winning side. Go ahead! Fight on 1 What I want to inarke out to -day is that our ammunition is not exhausted; that all which has been accomplished hail been only the skirmishing before the great Armaged- don; that not more than one of the thou- sand fountains of beauty in the King's Park hag begun to play; that not more than one brigade of the innumerable hosts to be marshalled by the Rider on. the Whitehorse has yet taken the field; that w het God has done yet has been with arm folded in, floWing robe; but that the time is coming when He will rise from His throne, and throw off that robe, andcome ouatif the palaces of eternity, and come down the stairs of heaven, with all con- quering step. and halt in the presence of expectant nations, and flashing His • onmiscient eyes across the work to be done, will put "back the sleeve of His - right arm to the shoulder, and roll it up theie and for the world's final and complete rescue make bare His arm. 'Who can doubt the result when accord- ing to my text Jehovah does His :beet ; NV lien the last reserve force of .0ninipo- tence takes the field ; when the last swotk of Eternal Might leaps from its scabbard. Do you knew what decided the battle of Sedan ? The hills a thousand feet high. Eleven hundred cannon on the hale. Artillery on the leighth of Givonne, and twelve German batteries on the heights of La Moncello. The Crown Prince of Saxany. watched the scene from the heights of Mairy. Between a quarter to six O'clock in the morning and one (0100 in the afternooe of September 2ne , '1876, the hills dropped the shells that phattered the French host in the valley. The French Emperor and the 86,000 of his army captured by the hills. So in this conflict now raging between he! nese and sin "our eyes are unto the hills.' Down here in the valleys of eortli we must be valiant soldiers of the Cross, but the Commander of our host walks the heights, and views the eseene for better than we can in the val- leys, ana at the right day and the right hour all heaven will open its batteries mil our side, and the commander of the lipsts of unrighteousness with all his, ers will surreucler; and it Will' take eternity to fully celebrate the uni- arsavictory through our Lord Jesus tl - Christ:.

Mr. Carneron in his talk with -a re- porter recently told of the dogs tnat are esed for sledging during the winter in tee northwestern territories of Canada. Six or eight dogs are used on each sledge, They are fed only once in twenty-four hours, and that, is in the morning before the start is made and after the dor,re are in harness. At that lime about 'four pounds of frozen -fish are given to them. Everything must be in readiness for the start, and the men must look to it that they are at hand to jump- on the sledges, for the very in- stant the last, morsel of fish disappears the degs are off at a break -neck speed. Sir:nitre- as it may solnu the drivers do not dare to feed the no„.;.s unless they are itt harness. Otherwise they would scatter and nothing more would be seen of them. • Tiley are driven with one long rein attacned to the leader. A vliip with a very short handle and a very lonalash is used to urge them on, though in most cases they need no urging, for they seem to feel that the faster they go tile quicker they wi,1 come to the post, where food" and warmth and a lazy life aevait them. They travel often as far as ninety miles a: day --Buffalo Courier, As He Understood It.
