TALMAGE'S SERMON.
Fourth Discourse Of the Series on
the Marriage Ring"
The Mutual Duties OF Husband and Wife,
with Suggestions on the Preservation
OF Domestic Harmony and Gull
ture OF Home Pleasures.

Witt Talmage's series Of discourses on
"Tbe Marriage Ring" delivered recently
in the Brooklyn Tabernacle. The text
was:
Can two walk together, except they be
agreed-Amos ILL.,, 0.
He said: No, Amos, they can not. They
will be tripping each other up, or p1shing
each other down. Married life under such
circumstances will be the sounding of per-
petual warhoop. In this course Of SER
mons on "The Marriage Ring" will to-
day speak Of the mutual duties of husband
and wife, preparatory to discourses on
their individual duties.
A church within a Church, republic
within republic, world within world,
is spelled by four letters-homel II things
go right there, they go right teverywhere;if
things go wrong there, they go wrong
everywhere. The door.sill of the dwell
ing-house is the foundation of Church and
State. A man never gets higher than his
own garrett or lower than his own cellar.
In other words, domestic life overarches
and undergirds all other life. The highest
house of Congress is the domestic circle;
