a WEDDING INVITATION.
SERMON PREACHED BY DR.. TAI
MAGE ON SUNDAY, MAY 10.

II was Preceded by the Baptism by the
Doctor of Number of Infants with
water Brought from the River Jor-
dan.
BRooKLYN, May 1O.--An interesting cere-
mony was performed this morning in the
BROOKLYN tabernacle before the sermon was
preached. A number of infants who nad
been brought there by their parents were
baptized. The water used was some Of
that which was brought by DIR. Talmage
from the river Jordan. The main audito-
rum of the Tabernacle and the adjoining
rooms were crowded by an audience of
seven thousand persons. The subject OF
DR.. Talmage's sermon was Invitation TO
a Wedding" and the text Luke xiv, II,
"Come. for all things are now ready"
Holy festivities today We gather other
sheaves into the spiritual garner. Our JOY
is ike the joy of Heaven. Spread the ban
ouet. fill all the chalices. We are not to-
day at the funeral of a dead Christ; we are
celebrating the marriage of the kings son.
AN EXCITING TINE.
II was an exciting time in English history
when Queen Elizabeth visited Lord Leices-
ter at Kenilworth castle. The clocks in all
the towers and throughout the castle were
stonped at the moment of her arrival, so
continuing to point to that moment as the
one surprising all others in interest.
The doors of the great banqueting hall
were opened. The queen marched in to
the sound of the trumpets. Four hundred
servants waited upon the guests. 1t was
scene that astonished all nations when
thew heard Of it, Five thousand dollars a
day did the banquet cost as it went on day
after day. She was greeted to the palace
oates with floating islands and torches and
the thunders of cannon and fireworks that
set the night ablaze, and burst of music
that lifted the whole scene into enchant-
ment. Beginning in that way, it went on
from ioy to Joy and from excitement TO eX-
element and from rapture to rapture.
That was the great banquet that Lord
Leicester spread in Kenilworth castle.
Cardinal Wolsey entertained the French
Ambassadors in Hampton Court. The best
cooks of all the land provided for the table.
The guests were kept hunting in the parks
all the day, so that their appetites might be
KEEN. and then in the evening hour they
were shown into the banqueting hail,
with table aglitter with imperial plate and
ablush with the very costlest wines, and
the second course of the feast was made
of food in all shapes, OF men and birds and
beasts. and dancing groups, and jousting
parties riding upon each other with up
lifted lances. Lords and princes and am
bassadors, their cups cleaning to the brlm,
drank first to the health of the king OF
ENGLAND, aud then to the health of the en-
peror of France. That was the banquet
that Cardinal Wolsey spread in Hampton
Court. --.

But today, my brothers ana SISTERS, III
vite YOU to a grander entertainment. My
Lord, the king, is the banqueter. Angels
of God are the cupbearers, all the redeemed
are the guests; the halls of eternal love

curtained with unfading beauty are the
'banaueting place, the harmonies OF eternity
are the music, the chalices Of God are the
plate. and am one of the servants come
out with invitations to all the people, and
oh that YOU might break the seal of the IN
vitation and read in ink of blood, and with
the tremulous hand of dying Christ,
;"Come. come, for all things are now ready"
Sometimes there have been great disap-
pointments at a banquet. The wine has
given out, or the servants have been rebel
lious. or the lights have failed; but walk
all around the banqueting table OF my
Lord today, and l find everything com
lplete, and 1 swing open the door OF tins

are now ready
Illustrating my text go on, and in the
first place say that the Lord Jesus Christ
is ready. Cardinal Wolsey did not come
into the banqueting hall until the second
course of the feast, and when he entered,
booted and spurred, all the guests arose

punctured side, waiting with hand on the
iacerated temples, waiting, waitingl

The Decline Of Marriage.

II appears TO be an admitted fact
that there Is n yearly increasing fall
ing of in the number OF marriages
which take place among tho prosper
Gus and highly educated classes, both
in this country and In Europe. II has
always been noticeable that the poorer
and least educated portions OF society
have been the readiest TO launch upon
the sea OF matrimony and have raised
the largest families. The decline In
the number OF marriages among the
wealthier and more cultivated classes
has been commonly attributed 10 the
increased cost OF living. and the de-
mands OF luxury, pride and ostenta-
tion. but there are those who think 10
attributable principally to newer con-
ceptions OF what marriage should be.
II Is no longer the alliance for COM
monplace objects OF two persons OF OPP
posite sexes with few or no mental
needs or susceptibilities in com
mon, but the union OF two
beings whose intellects. feel
ings, tastes and sympathies have been
assiduously trained To a high point Of
development and constituencies. The
man or woman OF the highest culture
and refinement excludes from his or
her matrimonial scope the individual
Of the other sex OF undeveloped pow
ers imperfect sympathies and inele-
CANT manners. A highly trained in
telIect and taste with multitudinous
objects OF thought and wide ac-
quaintance In society. does not stand
In need Of the perpetual companion
ship which Is an absolute necessity to
many. To IA self-contained character
OF this sort truly congenial marriage
Is undoubtedly an untold blessing
but the connubial state is not such nm
urgent necessity as 10 preclude DELHI
GRAFTON, careful choice and some re-
gard for consequences. A decline In
hasty and ill-assorted marriages would
prove blessing 10 all grades OF soci-
ETY. and induce much needed decline

come quite too frequent for the public
