The llc;v. ï. De Witt Talmage has resurned his regular Sunclay services at tho Brooklyn Tabernacle. His text the other Sumtay was, ''I willshow wonders in the heavens and in the eartli.'' Amono; other things he said: -Knowledge rolls its tide at every poot man's door, and if the philosophers of past centuries were required to stand in line with the boy of the Polytechnic or the girls of the Packer Institute, they would be sent to the foot of the class for failing to answer questions. These are the bleasins of free libraries - everywhere except in Brooklyn - anii newspapers are failing all around like leaves in the September equinox; and news three days old is considered ranc id. There are more copies of the Bi ble than of Shakespeare's, Tennyson's or Domas' works published every yearj Bt'fore long tho best investment will no be in Western Union or railroad stocksbut in trumpets and cynibals, for Te are on the eve of a great triumph. I would not be unbelieving if I saw the wings of the apocalyptic angel spread for night at this day's sunset, or if tonight Christ announced from Mount ülivet that Ho assunaed the dominion of this world. Tho railroad track is decrce and the engineer's arm freo agency; we cannot get along without either, and the train is rolling alongtho track into God'.s Grand Central Depot of the millenium. All aboard for heaven!'1
