 The Teachers Lantern.
 The penal infictions of that early age were cruel in the extreme They were hateful and vindictive. For ex- ample. the prophet was not given soIi- tary confinement in a dungeon; that would have been comparatively merci- tul. Instead he was lowered into a partly empty cistern. In the murky sediment he could find no footing. The foul miasma choked him. It was slow death. Capital punishment would have been merciful in comparison.
 The treatment of prisoners is one test of the advance of civilization Penology is Q recognized science-an important branch of sociology. The underlying principle is reformation, not vengeance.
 The last king on Judahs throne was phantom king. He cravenly admitted himself to be a cipher. He ruled in a shadowy way over the ghostly rem- nants of a great nation.
 The glorious figure of one great na- triot rises in the universal gloom He has been called the weeping prophet. Ills tears were vicarious. Not for self but for his nation. Though he wept he did not sit disconsolate amid ruins He valiantly stood for the best which the situation afforded. His constancy Is admirable.

JEREMIAH IN THE DUNGEON.


 The keenest torture Jeremiah suffered was the imputation cast upon his loy- aIty. Stocks, nor bastinado, nor dun geon, nor hunger were to be compared to this. To have to appear equivocal would be bad enough; but to seem ac- tually favorable to the enemy of his nation, and that, too, after the foe had raised the siege, was almost unendur- able How could he make 1t appear that he had not been subsidized by the Chaldean? Yet the prophet stood the fiery ordeal with sublime fortitude and patience
 His enemies soon found an opportu- nifty to bring the case to an issue. Jere- miah was of Anathoth, of the tribe of Benjamin. The time of distributing the tithes among the priests of that To- cality was at hand. He could go and bring his share. The distance was only four miles. He would then have some store against the renewal of the siege. He was following the dictate of practical wisdom. But he was arrested in the gate. Hananiah's grandson had a sweet revenge as he laid his violent hands upon the prophet Ger xxviii. l6), with the charge of assertion to the enemy.
 king of Israel, when advised to consult a certain prophet, exclaimed: T hate him, for he doth not prophecy good concerning me, but evil" G Kings xii. S). It is easy to transfer our resentment against the message to the messenger. Jeremiah was odiOus because he carried an offensive com munication. Nor were his terms always general. He had once likened the very princes into whose hands he fell to a basket of rotten figs. They were in a rage against him. They did him per sonal violence. In a star-chamber ses- sion they condemned him to a dungeon as a traitor.
 was broken, as he was carried secretly in the palace and asked by the king for a word from the Lord. He was in a weakened physical state through his long confinement with scant allowance of food. He was taken at the same dis advantage that many a so-called heretic has suffered since before heartless in quisitors. Think you not the tempter was at hand to suggest Speak a smooth word. or at least equivocate. Answer with double entente. You won't have to go back to the dungeon. On the contrary, your popularity will be restored You may even he promoted to office" But none of these things moved him; neither counted he his life dear unto himself. so only he could be true to his message and to Him that sent him.
 Even after he speaks the doom of Ju- dah, he ventures to appeal to the king, who will exercise his powers so brief time Where Is the kings sense of justice?" Jeremiah vindieates his own character. The imperious prophet con- descends to supplicate. He does not propose to suffer more than he has ."
