REV. DR. TM. MAGE ON "BEFORE THE‘I

no Wants Some Things Done and Some
Moro [Indore—A Grand and Hopeful
Sermon of Interest to National Legisla-
tora. l'
Wasnmc‘m ‘. May 10,~NOYOI' was a
Iimclicr or I!) re appropriate sermon than
that preached by Rev. Dr. 'I‘nlmagc this
morning. Th subject was, “Before They
Adjourn," for log reference to tho curly
dissolution of congress, and tho text so.
lcctcd was P5 lma av, 22, “And tcuch his
senators wisdc In."
Senators in his text stand for lawmak-
ers. Joseph as tho lord treasurer of the
Egyptian gov rnmcut. and, among other
great things ,hlch he did, according to
my text, was tF tench hisscnatora wisdom,
and if any mo: on earth ought to be an-
dowcd with \v adorn itissonntora, whether
they stand‘ in congresses, parliaments or
rcichstags or assemblies or legislatures.
By their decisions nations go up or down.
Lawmakers are sometimes so tempted by
prejudices, by sectional preferences, by op-
portunity of personal advancement, and
sometimes wh at is best to dois so doubtful
that they ougl t to he prayed- for and en-
couraged in ovary possible way, instead oi
ht‘vtll‘tlly criticised and blamed and exco—
riatcd, as is cab of tho timo tho case.
Our public or n are so often the target to
‘- be shot at, me cly because they obtain om-
inenco which tin-r men wanted. but could
not reach, the mono injustices are buried
at our nntiona. legislature than the pcoplo
of tho United "totes can possibly imagine.
The wholesale bolying, of our public men
is simply donrmbio. _
By residence in Washington I have come
to find out t not many of our public men
are persistently misreprcscntvd, and some
of tho best. of them. the purest in their
lives and most faithful in tho discharge of.
their duties, o the woratdofnnied, Some
day I wont to preach a sermon from the
text in II I’c cr: "They am not afraid to
rpcai: cviloi (ignituries. whcr-as angels,
which aro grtntor in power and bright,
bring not railingnccnsntiou against them
before tho L4 rd. lint those, as natural
hruto boasts, mndo to ho token and dc-
stroycd, speak evil of the things that they
undcrstood no ." So constant and malig-
nant Is this wr rk of depreciation and scan-
dulizotlon in regard to our public men
that. oil overlie land thrre are those who
supposo that the city of Washington in the
center of all crrruption, while, what with
its parks, and ‘ta equestrian statuary, and
its wide ctr: ctr. and its architectural

And Ethan Allen, from one of when do-

days n confirmation of theinol‘deni! mon-
tloacd in a recent sermon, on saying to his
dying daughter that aha had better take
hm- mother's Christian religion than his
own infidelity. . ,
The article sent me says: "The atory
has been denied by unravel the Allen fam~
liy, but the Bronson family, some of whom
worn with the dying girl, affirm that it is
substantially true. in such a matter one
confirmation is worth moro than many
dc‘ninls." So says the article sent me.
There is no doubt that Ethan Allen was
the v'nlgarest sort of an lufldol,,for, sitting
in a Presbyterian church, his admirers
say he struck the new in front of him and
swore out loud, to an to disturb the uncut'
ing, and no gentleman would do that. I
do not wonder that sumo‘ of his descend.
cuts are ashamed of him. but of course
they could not holp it and are not to blame.
But all the decent men of the Revolution

it was a good cradle to be rocked in. Oh,

Bcpeopling a Deserted City.
A curious attempt is being made for the

stone cities of northern and central India,
built by Mohununcdau or liindoodynas-
tics and long ago aliamloncd to malaria,
