Profoouor Browne rendered sonata No. l in
D minor, by Unillmaul. After Dr. Talmagl
had expounded thc sarcasm oi Elijah at tlu
ofleriug of the Baalitts, he spoke as follown:
Revelations viii, 1011: “There fell a great
star from heaven, burning an it were a lamp
and it fell upon a third part of the rivers and
upon the fountains of waters; and the mum
of the star is called Wormwood." .
Patrick and lamb, Thomas Scott, Mat
thew llonry, Alla-rt ӣ1er and all the othcx
commentators agree in saying that the Star
Wormwood of my text was Attila, king of
the Buns. lie was so called because he was
brilliant nun star, and, like Wormwood, ht
embittend everything he tmichcd. We ban
studied the Star of Bethlehem, and the mom-
lug Star of the Revolution, and the $tar at
Peace, but my subject this hour calls as u
game at the Star Wormwood, and my them
might be called Brilliant Bitterness.
A more extraordinary character history
does not furnish than this man referred tr
in my text, Attila, the king of the Hun:
One day a wounded heifer came limping
along through the fields, and a berdmnln
followed his bloody track on the grass to not
when the heifer was wounded, and went on
back, further and further, until he came tc
n sword fast in the earth, the point downward
as though it had dropped from the heavens,
and against the edges of this sword the
heifer had been cut. The henlsnian pulled
up that sword and presented it to Attila.
Attila said that sword must have dropped
front the heavens from the grasp of the god
Mars, and its being given to hint meant
that Attila should conquer and govern
the whole earth. Other mighty men
have been delighted at being called
'iberators or the merciful or tho good,
out Attila called himself and do
manded that others call him the scourge of
God. At the head of 700,000 troops, mounted
on Cappadocian horses, be swept everything
from the Adriatic to the Black sea He put
his iron heel on Macedonia and Greece and
.l'hrnce. lie made Milan and Pavia and,
Patina and Verona beg for mercy, which bel
bestowed not. The Byzantine castles, to!
meet his ruinous levy, put up at nuctioni
massive silver tables and vases of solid gold.
A city captured by him, the inhabitants
wero brought out and put into three classes. .
The first class, those who could bear arms,‘
who must immediate] y enlist under Attila or i
