THE. BELLS OF GLADNESS exegesis, polemics Or the science of
theological fisticuffs, but "telling,"
"Tell ve the daughter of Zion. Behold,
tIty King cometh. ' "Go quickly and tell
his diaciples that he has risen from the
dead." "Go home to thy friends and tell
theni how great things the Lord hath
done for thee." • "When he is come, he
will tell us all things." A religion
of "telling." And in what way
could all nations so well be told that
Christ has come as by such an interna-
tional emphasizing of his nativity? All
India would cry out about such an affair,
for you know they have their railroads
and telegranhs: "What is going on in
America" All China would crtr'out:
"What is that !great excitement in
Americn?" 1t Would be themightiest
missionary movement the %vorld 1ia ever
seen. It would be the turning point in
tho world's defltiny. It would waken the
slumbering nations with one touch.
Question the eecond: How Would you
have such an international jubilee con-
ducted? Answer: all arts should be mar-
; shelled, arid art in its most attractive and
impressive shape. First: tu•chitecture.
While nil Academies of Miisie and all
churches and all great halls would be,
needed, there should be one great audi-
torium erected to hold Elia an audience
as has neer . been seen on any sacred
„occasion in Anterica. If Scribonius
-turio at the cost e of a kingdoin could
build the first two vast amphitheatres,
placing them back to ,back, holding great
audiences for dramatic representation,
and *then by wonderful machinery
could turn them round: with all their
audiences in them, making the two
ntuditoriums one amphitheatre, to wit-
ness a gladiatorial contest. and Vespasion
conk] construct the Colosseum, with its
eighty columns and its triumphs in three
orders of Greek architecture aed a
capacity to hold eightPeeven thousand
people seated and fifteen thousand_ stand-
ing, and alt for the purpose Of cruelty
and sin, cannot our glorious Christianity
rear in honor of our glorious C„rist a.
structure largeenough to hold fifty
tlioustand of its worshippers? If we go
groping now among tne ruined amphi-
theatres of Verona, and Pompeii, and
Capus, and Puzzuole and Tarraco, and.
then stand transfixed with ainimenent at
their immense sweep that held fi•oni fifty
to a imodred thousand spectatois gather-
ed for carousal and moral degradation,
could not Christianity afford one archi-
tectural achievement that W011111 hold
and enthrall itadifty thousand Christian
disciples? Do yon say no human
voice could beheard throughout such a
building? Ah ! then you were not pre-
-sent %lien ittehe BostonPeace Jubilee
Parepa easily with her voice. enchant-

time is near othand when in Theologi-
cal Seminaries, where our ..young men
are being trained for the 111illistrV, the
voice will be developed, and inetead of
the mumbling ministers, who speak with
so low a tone you cannot hear ,unless
you lean forward, and hold. your hand
behind your ear, and then are able to
guess the gen-end drift of the eubject,
and decide quite well whether it is
about Moses or Paul or someone else—
inbtead of that you will have coining
from the Theological Seminaries all over
the land young ministers with voice
enough to command the attenthm of an
audience of _fifty t nousand people. That
is the reason that the Lord gave us two
lungs instead of one. It is the Divine
way of saying physioloctilly, "Be
heard S..' That is the reason that the
New Testament in beginning the ac-
count of Christ's sermon on the Mount,
deecribes our Lord's plain articulation
and resound of utterance by saying, "He

Century and the Dinh of Another Sub.
linte,Beyond all Estimate.
BROOKLYN, Sept. 24. ----At the Brook-
lyn Tabernacle this forenoon Rev, Dr.
Talmiege preached a sermon of unusual
interest to a vast audience, the subject
being, "The 'Nineteenth Hundredth
Anniversary: A. Proposition- Cencernitig
it," The text was taken. from Isiah 9-0:
"To us a child is born."
That is a tremendous hour in
tory of any family when an. immortal
spirit is incarnated.. Out of a very dark
'cloud there descends a 'very bright morn-
ing. One life spared and another
given. All the bells of gladness ring
over the cradle. Iknow not why any-
-one should doubt that of 'old a Ma;
pointed down tothe Saviour's birthplace,
for a star of joy pointe down to every
honorable nativity. A new eternity -
dates from that hour, that minute.
Beautiful and appropriate is the custom
of celebrating the anniversary of such
an event, and clear on into the eighties
and the nineties the recurrence of - that
day of She year in an old man's life
causes recognition and more or less con _
gratulation. So, also,, nations are ac-
customed to celebrate the anniversary of
their -birth and the anniversary of the
.hirtii of their great heroes or deliverersor
benefactors. The 22nd of Feburary and
the fourth of July are never allowed to
pass in our land without banquet and
or tion and hell -ringing and cannonade.
But all other birthday anniversaries are
tame compared with the Chrietinas fes-
tivity, which celebrates the birthday de -
sallied in my text. Protestant and
Catholic and.Greek churches, with all
the power of Music and garland and
procession and doxology, put the words
of my • text into national and continental
and hemispheric chorus: -"To us a child
is born," On the 25th oj December
each year, that is the theme in St, Paul's
and St. Peter's and St. Mark's and St.
Isaac's and all the dedicated cathedrals,
chapels,. meeting -houses and churches
clear around the world. We shall soon
reach the nineteenth hundredth inniVer-
sarrof that happiest eventof all time.

taeen by an infantile foot one winter's
night, about five miles 1 rom Jerusalem,
when the clouds dropped the angelic
cantata : "Glory to God in the higheet,
and on.earth, peace, good -will to wen."
The three or Jour questions that, would
be fished me concerning this nominatiou
of time and place, 1 proceed to answer.
Willa practical use would come of such
