THE HAMPToNs, August 29.-The Rev.
DR.. T. Dewitt Talmage's text to-day was:
Isaiah NJ, %; 1T is He that sitteth upon
the circle ofthe earth" Following is the
sermon
While yet people thought that the world
was fiat, and thousands of years berOre
they found out that it was round, Isaiah
in my text intimated the shape of it, God
sitting upon the circle of the earth. The
most beautiful figure in all geometry is
the circle. God made the universe on the
plan of 4 circle There are in the natural
world straight lines, angles, parallel
orgrams, diagonals, quadrangles; but these
evidently are not Gods 1avorites. AL
most everywhere where you find him
geometrizing you find the circle dominant
and if not the circle then the curve, which
is a circle that died young. If it had
lived long enough it would have been n

THE RIVER or TIME.

Oh, wonderful stream is the river OF Time.
As 1t runs through the realms OF tears,
with its faultless rythm and musical rhyme,
And grander sweep and surge sublime,
As II blends with the ocean OF years.
How the Winters are drifting like flakes OF
And the summers, like birds, between; :,
And the years in Its sheaf, so they come and
On the fivsr's breast with its ebb and its
flow,
As il giides in the shadow and sheen.
There's beautiful isle In this river Of Time,
Where the mildest of airs are playing,
With cloudless skies and tropical cline,
And a song as sweet as vespersc cnlme,
And the Junes with their roses are staying.
And the name OF this Isle is the Long Ago,
And we bury our treasures there;
There are brows of beauty and bosoms OF
They are heaps of dust-but we love them
There are trinkets and tresses OF hair.
There are fragments Of songs that nobody
sings,
And part Of an infants prayer; ,.,.,,
strings;
There are broken vows and pieces OF rings
And the garments she used to wear.
Theie are hands that are waved when thai
fairy shore
BY the mirage is lifted in air;
And We sometimes hear through the turbu
lent roar,
Sweet voices we heard in the days gone
when the wind down the river is fair.
Oh! remember for aye be that blessed Isle
All the day OF our life till night!
When the evening comes, with its calm
bright smile,
And our eyelids are closing to slumbel
awhile, -
Nav that Greenwood of soul be in sight.
