Troubles of a Preachers Life.

Having disposed of host of announce
ments yesterday morning, Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher chose for the subject of his sermon
'The Difficulties of Preachers" There is
so much said about preachers that perhaps
it is worth WHILE" he said, for preacher
himself to say something about them. 1t
looks an easy life as YOU see II on the sur
face, but il l. not 80 easy. You can take the
man who tolls hard day in and day out in a
c0lliery, and maybe mOurns his lot. He
looks al the minister, who is dressed in
broadcloth, and whose onlyapparent duty is
to preach Tor half an hour every Sunday
and live luxurious life, and says: I'D like
to be minister myself, then l would know
nothing of either work or trouble, have an
easy life and 20 found visiting my friends
To all these say that the life of preacher
is not all ease and comfort, and IL certainly
is not all laziness. They charge that preach
ing is purely mechanical art and has no
influence upon the nerves of the preacher
Let me refer such skeptics to the lives OF
Drs. Bushnell, Claiming and Robertson, of
England. In delivering their renowned
sermons to vast audiences it seemed TO be 10
them an easy matter. But WAS it so? Ii
was not; for the continuous labor knocked
them down time after time from sheer hard
thinking and deep research. Brain work is
much harder than muscular efforts.
Then take into consideration the other
duties OF preacher. W eek by seek he
must subject himself TO self denial, and
very frequently he is compelled To make
continuous round of his parlshionsrs where
ne sees nothing but want and misery, and
yer, perchance. after all. his endeayors TO
bring comfort, tie old, old verdict is the re-
suit: On he's no good. | went 10 hear him
once, but il you pad me would not go
again, for he is like the wheels of cart
mat have not been greased--there is no
music in him." Lsughter.l
There is sort Oi straight-laced preach
ing. though, which is called sound preach
ing. So it is, but it is all sound and nothing
else laughter, for such preachers 90 round
the whole system and get there once year,
and turn around and go over the same
ground again, like stitching a new collar on
an old garment. These men say they hear
a CALL but as the old Methodist minister
would saw, Il don't hear it, but if there was
a call, believe il was somebody else God
called
THE work of Christian minister is to be
upright, honorable, noble, and yet meek be.
fore all men. He must throw off all fear
and determine what is true and he it is who
must be the best judge of what is good for
his people, and preach that doctrine. One
of the noblest of the callings of God is that
of the ministry, and, as | said in the begin
ming, it is by no means an easy life, as many
have attested, who, after long years OF trial,
have failed in their calling"

Robertson's confirmation last spring. He
is , therefore, thoroughly accegtabls to the
He is also from what may be
called Pacific State. and will
in measure satisfy the Far West in its de-
mand for recognition in the Cabinet HIS
nomination will be favorably received by
the great railroad interests Of the West, par
ticularly by the Union Pacific
and Kansas Pacific. To-day
his friends have quietly canyassed
the Senate and House for the purpose of as
certaining how the selection would strike
the members, and there seems to be no
doubt the nomination kill 90 in within a
few days, probably this week. Judge Bel
ford is regarded as the successor of Teller in
the Senate.

THE DASHING RUSSIAN GENERAL WHOSE SPEECH
MAY PEEcIPITATE A EUROPEAN WAR.
Perhaps no more striking instance of the dec
trine of heredity might be shown than in the case
of General Skobelef. Not only is his father sol
der OF distinguished ability. but his grandfather
rose from common soldier to first rank as Gen
eral in the Caucasses. When only eighteen,
young MICHAEL took so energetic part in some
disturbances at the University that his attend
ance at the seat of learning was summarily dis
pensed with, but not before he had mastered sew
eral languages and acquired an omniyerous sppe-
tite for reading. There are few better-read men
to-day in Europe than the General. After his dis
missal from the University he was sent with a
regiment OF the guards to assist in suppresSing the
instruction. After passing through different di-
visions Of the Russian Army, he was in 1873 trans
