A FOrner Pnstor

Rev. A c. Eggleston, of Bristol, 8 former pastor of Wesley chapel, occupied the pulpit yesterday morning, taking for his text the 72d verse of the 14th chapter of St. Marks gospel. The preacher brought out with much vividness the character of Peter at the time he denied Christ, and very clearly showed that the clements of a very stalwart man were the characteristics of this heroic Peter, although in the present lesson he was foundawanting in judgment and very clear conception of his duty. As we study this sad incident in Peter's life, said the preach CT, why has this been set before us Why was it not called a blunder or an error of iudg. ment and let pass? David speaks so vividly of his wickedness and errors. At first sight we wonder at this. Why not put aside the blemishes of these men of bible times These are questions that come to us every day and yet that was not Gods plan. The bible gives to us the true facts in the lives of prophets and apostles, it clearly brings out the frailties of human hearts. What is the lesson we should learn by this Peter is often quoted as vacillating self-im- portant cowardly, but when ws study this mans character in it's true light we shall find he was energetic, noble and manly. When the apostle left all for Christ he had much to leave besides worldly goods. Peter stands forth as a leader of the apostles, and when Jesus asked them, ''Will ye also go away ?'' Peter answered for them all. s"To whom shall we go?" He had a quick percep- tion, and in the love he bore for the Master he exclaimed in the depth of his soul, 'If should die with thee yet, will not deny thee" If we had been in Peter's place we would have said the same thing What was it in Peter's words that merited so sharp 8 rebuke from the master Peter had brought his heart as an offering, but it was unregenerate as yet. Peter loved Christ, yet he did not understand him. The carnaI mind cannot understand this thought. People of to day cry out, ''Be it far from me-" Peter cries out in the loyalty of his soul, Christ, the son of God, shall not die. We ought to rejoice that there was one brave heart among the apostles who was manly enough to stand up and say it shall not be. We ought to place the crown upon Peter's brow for hsv- ing drawn the sword in defense of Christ. Courage is an element that should be prom inent feature in Christian life.
 The pastor eloquently closed his discourse. Many old friends were glad to see again their former pastor.

NIfstaken IdentIfv.

For some weeks past we have from time to time been informed that MT. Talmadge, the celebrated Brooklyn preacher, was in town ; that he had been seen about the streets, most frequently in the neighborhood of the postofice, and on one occasion in barber's chair, where his distinguished presence was recognized and felt by almost everyone pres ent. Our reporters, however, after careful inquiry, have failed to verify these rumors. and this is the reason why we have never chronicled the honor which it was supposed our city was receiving all this time. Never. theless we have concluded that there is in our midst some one bearing most miracu lous resemblance to the reverend gentleman in question. In this view of the case it has been suggested that a glorious oppor. tunity is here offered for an enterpris ing manager-an Abbey or a Haverly- to put before his amusing levine patrons an attraction decidedly unique. Langtry draws, it is said simply because she is something out of the ordinary line-a new kind of thing.
 For precisely the same reasons it is claimed that duplicate living, breathing Talmadge, not necessarily speaking Talmadge, would surely prove success. The matter of acting, in either case, is of no consequence. The great desideratum is the curiosity. Such is the claim of those who are now searching for this mysterious phenomenon. And as 6 curiosity, it is claimed he surpasses the Langtry.
