H DEVILS DWELLING PLACE; FoRT DELLA
WARE.
As the long procession OF prisoners stag
gered out upon the wharf at Fort Delaware,
the universal thought was one Of utter de-
spondency, as if each had been warned,
like the Lost Spirits in Dante's Hill, to-
abandon Hope We who enter here - The
reputation of the place for cruelty was al
ready familiar to all of us: and it needed
no more than a glance at the massive fort,
with its hundreds of monstNr guns, the
broad moat, the green-slime dykes, and the
scores of sentry's pacing to and fro, in all
directions, to quench every lingering hope
of escape. Perhaps a brief description of
this famously Infamous prison may be per-
mitted for historical service.
Fort Delaware is an handsome, granite
Pentagon, mounting 100 guns, in three tiers
of casemates, to command at point-b blank
range both channels of the river. which in
this vicinity is about one mile wide. A
deep moat at all times full of water, sur
rounds the fort and if necessary the whole
island can be flooded to the depth Of four or
five feet by opening the dyke. gates. The
fort occupies the Southeastern corner Of
Pea Patch island, which is a relic of the
Revolutionary war, | believe. At that
period the defence of the Delaware land
Philadelphia consisted of Fort Mif1in, a
small water-battery, farther up the river
only a sand bar existing on the site OF the
present fortress. On this shoal, however,
a vessel was wrecked, and her cargo of sue
culent peas beginning to sprout, served as a
web to catch the drifting sediment of the
river, until a small island was formed. Re-
peated crops Of vegetation served to solldity
the gathering mass SO that in the course of
many years a surface of ten or twelve acres
was visible at low tide. At length the Fed
eral government saw the advantage Of To-.
eating a fort here, in midstream, for the de-
fence Of the upper water. A broad levee
was constructed entirely around the island,
shutting out the tide the interior having
been thus redeemed, soon became habitable;
though the soil is still so black, loamy, and
porus, that one fears to tread heavily lest it
open like quicksands to swallow him up

BEEcurReoEs BACK OK DAN ND Eve

BEECHER GOES BACK OK ADAM AID Eve
! Henry Ward Beecher has put forth another
sensation. Here Is an extract from a recent
sermon
The human race has been and is an un-
olding race. The world - developing IL
Is a gigantic lie, told with much circum
stantiality, that men were created upright
and then fell; that in Adam and Eve the
human race fell al around. 1t begaa in \
iallow state. and the world i a God meant
il TO be. There was no trick. God did
not make a bad job ana then paint it pretty
and plaster it up. Such an idea il not
worthy of him. In the childhood CT
thought such ideas might prevail; that they
continue in the manhood OF the world IL
pitiable and confoundiug, The race WAS
created imperfect. The family Is an cpi.
itome Of the ages. Continual develo ,ment
is the law created with potential pewers.
through days, weeks, months aud years the
child is developed 50 too the world. God
could have made men perfect bad he 80 de
sired.
The origin Of evil is a cob that has been
gnawed upon for thousands OF years, but no
one ever got a kernel from it. Ii is still =
cob. Evil Is organic. created. universal.
characteristic, designed. Ii WAS. put in OR
purpose no mallgant spirit introduced II
is purpose was to promote activity and ply
man on. Pain aud suffering belong to crea-
ton. In a sense God made laws to be bro
ken-that is, He knew that nascent an1
imperfect beings would break them. The
idea is to be disclaimed and trampled under
foot that men must do thus and thus or be
DESTROYED. Gods ways is to lift, aid and
sympathiZe with men.
We don't throw away the Bible when ws
say that the system of the old Testament IS
not the system for TO day. don't hold the
theory Of the Atonement; aud suppose you
will ask which theory, for | have at home
at last twenty theories Of the Atonement
fully explained. | hold that the Divine
Nature broods over the human family ev-
erywhere, and tendeIly stirs men TO rise
from a lower to a higher stage OF action.
There are numberless questions easy To ask
about methods that | cannot answer. The
effect of the Divine Nature Is to perfect IN
man what is like itself. I%reject he Mosaic
economy and take a la.ge view of Chrlsts
work. | hold a grarder theory more uni
versal, sovereign and sublime than any of
the past. The truths OF the Bible are not
to be swallowed whole, but to be sif,cd.
He who interprets it literally will go over.
If the records of Gods work in the infantl.
period Of the world are applied to nc All
will 90 over. But have no tears for the
Bible. From it's pages SHINE forth Gods
care for men and his way for uplifting and
drawing into himself the yagrant human
race. Gods sympathy is bosom that is
never dry, and the life of men may eves
draw from it. The Bible will live, but it
will kill the men who use and abuse it. 4

false interpretation of that book.
