THE BIBLE woMAN's BEST FRIEND.

DIR. Talmage continued his series OF
sermons on Infdelity, yesterday, ana
the text of the discourse, which we pre-
sent this morning, is both interesting
and Instructive. We thinks. however,
that the reverend gentleman does not
strengthen his argument by attempting
to reduce to the plane of reason, what
have heretofore been consldered slmply
n,irecIes That Joshua commanded the
sun to stand still, or that Jonah was
three days in the whales stomach, are
not, we take it, matters to beexplained,
but simply to be believed, as on the
raising Of the dead, the changing OF
water into wine, and other miracles.
The Doctor is most happy in his refuta-
ton of the statement that the Bible is
the enemy of women, and he brings to
his aid a wealth of illustration, beauty
of diction and pathetic force, which will
90 far to convince the reader that such
Statement is wholly uncalled for 10 say
the least.

Brooklyn, January IA large congrega-
ton greeted Rev. DR.. Talmage, at the
Tabernacle, this morning, and after the
hymn, "Blow ye the trumpet, blow, he
began his sermon, taking as his text
Psalm lxxiii. 8. They set their mouth
against the Heavens" The Doctor said:
A full length portrait OF blasphemer!
AS the wolf hOwleth at the sky and the dog
baveth at the moon, so the blasPhemer IN
my text stands making mouths at lhe
heavens. And on the same night that the
wolf friphtens away the sky, and the dog
stnppeth the moon, will the blasphemer
drive hack the God OF the Bible. You ask
wby IL is that infidels should be thrown in
tT such rage at the Scriptures. Do you
know that pure water will throw man IN
a naroxvsm OF hydrophobia, If he has been
preyiouslv bitten. 1t is because man
soul is already poisoned that this pure
bright water from the Rock CT Ages
throws him into fits Of rage and carlcature:
In great hilarity Mr.. lngersoll speaks OF
the
Stopping OF the Sun and Moon
in the time OF Joshua in order that the bat
tie might be completed. He lntlmates
this is impossible. But | ask, cannot he VINO

start them again. cannot a machinlst VINO

icers at the moon stopping as well as the
sun. Well il you have never seen the
moon in the day time ii Is because You
have not been careful observer OF the
heavens. But the record is speaking after
the manner of men. 1t was necessary only
that the light be continued by unusual re-
fraction, and all the worlds might have
gone on literally while fguratively they
stopped. The Bible authors used the Ian
guage of their day as YOU and speak OF the
sun as Going down. We do not mean TO
say by that, that the sun goes round the
earth, We speak OF the way
Ii Appears 10 the Eye.
But the earth could have literally stopped
without throwing the universe out of bal.
ance. Does not Mr.. lngersoll know that
the earth has two motions, one around the
sun and the other on its own axis, ana that
while il may have continued 10 move IN
It's path around the sun it might have stop.
ped or SlaCkened its speed on its own axis,
and so there would have been no need OF
stellar confusion? Ii the world only stop
ped turning on its own axis it would be
none OF the business of Jupiter or Mars or
Mecury, or the Dipper. All astronomers
agree in the statement that worlds have
been born and have died. Last week the
appearance OF new world was reported by
the astronomers al Washington. Thirteen
worlds in a comparatively short space OF
time are reported by philosophers as burn
ing up under their own eye. First they
had the ordinary look OF a world, then
they became red, showing they had taken
fire; then they became ashen, showing they

The Bible does not seem so very anlagu
nistic to woman. What name next to
Christ commands the most worship on
earth? Mary. For what purpose did Christ
perform his first miracle? To relieve the
embarrassment of q womanly housekeeper
at the falling short of beverage. For
whom did Christ break up the silence OF
the grave and rend the shroud and hurl
away the rock? To stop the bereavement OF
two Bethany sisters. To whom is the
church in heaven admiringly compared?
To bride. For whose comfort did Christ
in dying excruciation seem especially anx-
ious? For q woman, an old woman,
wrinkled woman, the woman who had held
Him in her arms, His first friend, His last
friend, as it is very apt 70 be-Hls mother.
Is Mr.. Ingersoll right when he says that
the Bible is woman's enemy? What Is the
difference between woman's condition IN
China or Central AfrIca and woman in In
gland or America? The difference made
by the Bible In other lands she ploughs
the field and carries the hod and suffers IN
describsble lndignities, and is kept IN pri'

"No SENSIBLE Republican believes that
"Captain Gallagher will ever again be
"allowed to disgrace the party as a city
. officer" says the laundering morning
organ Of the old City Ring in its desperate
efforts to counteract the strong current of
public sentiment which the Republican
nominations have turned against that party
But it is entirely too late now for
the Ring organ to repudiate its Ring
Boss and attempt by playing the role of the
yirtuous partisan to make political capital
for the horde of plunderers it is seeking to
reinstate in municipal offices of this city.
Captain Gallagher's organ knew that its re-
pudiation Of its master would have no
effect and it placed proper estimate upon
its own influence in this community when it
told the captain in the privacy of its editorial
rooms, "Oh, it won't have any effect any
chow and will sound better than anything

The BaItlmore peteetives.

Unable to satisfactorily explain the pres
ence Of so many strange negroes in VIII
mington, whose evident purpose is to fraudu
lently vote the Republican ticket tomorrow,
the Republican party managers are raising
ridiculous "stop-thief' cry of Democratic
repeaters imported from Baltimore to vote
for the Democratic candidates. This foolish
hue and cry is made the pretext, on the part
of the Republican executive committee, for
the introduction of gang of Baltimore
detectives" to watch for the supposed re-
peaters.
Nothing could be more infamous than
this proposition and it even exceeds in its
yillainy the monstrous doctrine of the Repub-
lican party thatU nited States deputy marshals
/ should be appointed to "preserve the peace"
at Congressional elections. The marshals,
though they often comprise men Of ques-
tionable characters, are at least ur own
citizens, but these detectives" from Balti-
more, employed as the paid agen is of the
Republican party to supervise municipal
election in this city, may be the worst
roughs of the Monumental City as far as
the people of Wilmington know. Their
| importation under the guise of detectives"
imparts a strong sembance of truth to the
report published in the GAZETTE few weeks
ago that a part of the Radical plan on
election day was to create a succession of
disturbances around the election precincts
in charge of their inspectors, and during the
consequent confusion rush in the votes of
their negro repeatcrs, who are to be kept
conveniently on hand for this purpose.
| We advise our Democratic people to keep
close watch on these Baltimore
d" detectives" We have a Mayor of this
city, sworn to faithfully execute its laws,
and we need no foreign importations to en-
able us to keep the peace and preserve the
purity of the ballot-boX at our charter cleo
ton. The charge that negroes have been
brought from the surrounding neighborhood
to illegally vote tomorrow has been
amply proven by their actual presence,
and though twenty-five Of them may have
| gone to Hockessin yesterday, they can easily
return tomorrow, and there are plenty left
in the city if they do not Last night a
prominent negro politician of this city was
over in New Castle after negro recruits, and
there is no doubt the Baltimore ''detectiyes" :"
are brought here more for the purpose of
aiding these gentry in prosecuting their
unlawful work than for 'spotting"
Democratic repeaters from their own city.
Democrats, watch the Baltimore ''detect-
ives" Keep them under the surveillance of
the police authorities, and promptly resent
by arrest andimprisonment any interference
on their part. We want the election in this
city conducted quietly and honestly, and
neither Baltimore Democratic reporters or
Baltimore Republican repeatcrs under th,
guse of detectives should be permitted t.
, polute our polls on the day of election. Tht
: people of Wilmington are capable of manag
ing their own affairs without any assistance
: from other cities. Watch the &" detectives.
