were almostdaily, then less frequent. After
about four years of this suffering, I was
taken down with- bilious typhoid fever, and
when I began to recover, I had' the wont

At the first of the fever, lily mother gave

the city. I am his customer, and he is
going to oblige me very much." Stop!
A busiuess house that tries to get or
keep your custom through such a pro-
cess as that is not worthy of you. There
are business establishments in our cities
which have for years been sending ot
destruction hundreds and thousands of
merchants. They have a secret drawer
in the counter where money is kept, and
the clerk goes and gets it when he wants
to take these visitors to the city through
the low slums of the place, Shall I
mention the names of some of these
great commercial establishmens ? I
have them on my lips. Shall ? Per-
haps I had 'better leave it to the young
men, who in, that process, have been de,
stroyed themselves while they have been
destroying others. I care not how
high-sounding the name °Pea com-
mercial establishment if it pro-
poses to get customers or to keep them
by such a procese as that, drop
their acquaintance. They will cheat
you before you get through. They will
send you a style of goods different from
that which you bought by sample.

feel in your pockets and say: "Is my

of something' for which dollars and
cents can never give you compensation.
When one of these Western merchants
has been dragged by one of those com-
mercial agents through the slums of the
city he is not fit to go home. The mere
memory of what he has seen will he
moral pollution. I think you had better
let the city missionary and the police
attend to the exploration of New York'
and underground life. You do not go
to a smallpox hospital for the purpose of
exploration. You do not go there be-
cause you are afraid of contagion. And
yet you go into the presence of a moral
leprosy that is as much more dangerous
to you as the death of the soul is worse
than the death of the body. I will under-
take to say that nine -tenths of the men
who have been ruined in our cities have
been ruined by simply going to observe,
• without any idea of participating. The
fact is that underground city life is a
filthy, fuming, reeking, pestiferous
• depth, which blasts the eye that looks at
it. In the Reign of Terror, in 1792, in
Paris, people escaping from the officers
of the law got into the sewers of the
city, and crawled and walked through
miles of that awful labyrinth, stifled
with the atmosphere and almost dead,
some of them, when they came out to
the river Seine, where they washed
themselves and again breathed the
fresh air, But I have to tell you that a
great naany of the men who go on the
work of exploration through the under-
ground gutters of New York life never
• conie out at any Seine river where they
can wash off the pollution of the moral
sewage.Stranger, if one of the re-
presentatives of a commercial establish -

IneLut sixteen years ago as a minister
of religion I felt I had a divine commis-
sion to explore the iniquities of our
cities. 1 did not ask counsel of my
session, or my Presbytery, .or of the
newspapers, but asking the companion-
ship of three prominent police officials
and two of the elders of my church, I
Unrolled my commission, and it said,
"Son of man, dig into the wall; and
when 1 had digged into the wall, behold
a door; and he. said, go in and see the
wicked abominations that are done; and
I went in, and • saw, and behold I"
Brought •up in the country, aud sur-
rounded by much parental care, I had
not until that time seen the haunts of
iniquity. By the grace of God defended,
I had never sowed my "wild oats." I
• had somehow been able to tell from
'various sources something of the iniqui-
ties of the great cities, and to preaoh
against them; but I saw, in the destruc-
tion of a great multitude of the people,
that there must be an infatuation and
temptation that had never been spoken
about, and I said, "I will explore."
I saw thousands of men going
down, and if there has been a spiritual
• percusiion answering to the physical
percussion, the whole air would have
been full of the rumble, and roar, and
crack, and thunder of the demolition,
and this moment, if we should pause in

"I will explore." I went as ph3 sician

practical and useful informetion I
might get. That would be a foolish

acription. When the lecturer in a medi-
cal college is done with his lecture he

went and saw, and came forth to my
pulpit to report a plague, and to tell
how sin ,dissects the body, and
dissects the mind, and dissects
the soul. "Oh!" say you, "are you
not afraid that in consequence of
such explore,tions of the iniquities of the
city other persons might make explora-
tion, and do themselves damage ?" I re-
ply, if, in company with the Commis-
sioner of Police,and theCaptain of Police,
hod the Inspector of Police, and the
company of two Christian gentlemen,
and not with the spirit of curiosity but
that you may see sin in order the better
to combat it, then, in the name of the
eternal God, go? But if not, stay
away." Wellington, standing in the
battle of Waterloo when the bullets
were buzzing around his head, saw a
civilian on the field. He said to hint,
"Sir, what are you doing here? Be off!"
"Why,'t replied the nivilian. "there is no
more danger here for me than there is
for you." Thee Wellington flushed up
and said, "God and my country demand
that Lbe here, but you have no errand
here." Now 1, as an officer in the army
of Jesus Christ, went on that explore -
tont and on that battlefield. If you
bear a commission, go'; if not, stay
away. But you say, e"Don't you
think -somehow the description of
those places induces people to
go ono see • for themselves?" I

In our last dreadful war the Federals
and the Confederates were encamped on
opposite sides of the Rappahannock-, and
one morning the brass bands of the
Northern troops played the national air,
and all the Northern troops cheered and
cbeeredd Then on the opposite side of
the Rappahannock the brass band of the
Confederates played "My Maryland"
and `'Dixie," then all the Southern
eroops cheered and cheered. But after
awhile one of the bands struck up
"Home, Sweet Horne," and the band on
the dpposite side of the river took up
the strain, and when the tune was done
'the Confederates and the Liberals all toe
gether united, as the tears rolled down
their cheeks, in one great huzza! huz za!
Well, my friends, heaven comes very
near to -day. It is only a stream that
divides us—the narrow stream of death
—and the voices there and t10 voices
liere Seern to commingle, and -nee join
trumpets, and hosannahs, and halle-
lujahs, and the chorus of the united
song of earth and Heaven is "Home,
Sweet Horne." Home of bright domes-,

m the great heart of God. Home
eternal rest in Heaven. Home! Home!
Home!
But suppose you are standing on a
crag of the znountam, and on the edge
of a precipice, and all unguarded, and
sonie one, either in joke or hate, shall
rue up behind you and push you off. It
is easy enough to push you off, But
who woutd do so dastardly a deed?
Why, that is done every hour of every
day and eveey hour of every night. Men
come to the verge of city life and say
"Now, we will just look off. Come,
young man, do oot be afraid. , Come
near; let us look off." He comes to the
edge and looks, and looks until, after
awhile'Satan sneaks up behind hitmand
puts a hand on each of his shoulders and.
pushes bine off. Society says it is dvil
proclivity 01I the part of the young man.

and sacrificed his life ha discovery. 4
young Man comes in from the country
bragging that nothing can do him any
larin. He knows about all the tricks of
city life. "Why," he says, "did not I
receive a circular in the country telling
me that somehow they found out I was a
sharp business man, and if I would.

by mail or express, charges prepaid,
they would' send a package with which.
1 could make a fortune in two months;
but I did not believe it. My neighbors
did, but I did -not. Why, no man could
take my money.' • I carry it in a pocket
inside my vest. No man coulti, take
it. No ma.recould cheat me at the faro
table. Don't I-ltnow all about the 'cue -
box,' and the dealer's box'and the cards

and when' to hand itt mir checks? Oh
t hey can't cheat nee. I know what 1 am

very moment, such teen are succor:tilting
to the worst Satanic influences, in the
simple fact that they are going to ob-
serve. Now, if a man or woman shall
go down into a haunt of iniquity for
the purpose of reforming men or wo-
men, or for the sake of being able in-
telligently to warn people against such
perils, if as did John Howard, or Eliza,
beth Fry, or Thomas Chalmers, they go
down among- the abandoned for the
sake of saviug them, than, such explor-
ers shall be God -protected, and tbey will
come out better then when they went
in. But if you go on this work of ex-
ploration merely for the purpose of
satisfying a morbid curiosity,' will take

one of throe things—your in;elleet, your
morals or your property, and you can-
not point in the whole earth to a single
exception to this rule. God gives us
six days and keeps one for _Himself.
Now, if we try to get the seienth, he
w ill upset the work of the other six.
1 remember going -up Mount Wash-
ington before. the railroad had been
built to the Tip -Top House. and the
guide would come around to our horses
and stop us when we were crossing a
very steep and dangerous place, and he
wouLd tighten the girtleof the horse and
atraighten the saddle. And I have to
tell you that this road of life is so steep
and full of peril we must, at least one
da,y in seven, stop and have the harness
of life readjusted, and our souls re-
egeipped. The seven days of the week
are like seven business partners, and you
inust give to each one his share, or the
business will be broken up. God is so
generous with us; He has given you six.
(Lays to His one. Now, here is a father
who has seven apples, and he gives six
to his greedy boy, proposing to keep one
for himself. The greedy boy grabs for
the other one and loses all the six.
How few men there are who know
how to keep the Lord's Day away from
home. A great many who are consis-
tent, on the banks of the St. Lawrence, or
the Alabama,, or the Mississippi are not
