May there be golden peace to you, Teacher Talmage, and will your excellency please bestow your brilliant glance on what I have written! "Is not that a specimen of humility? The stealing was because of his neglect of duty, and his neglect of duty was because of inability, having obtained his office through the merit of his father or grandfather. Of course he kept the umbrella."
There was an inexhaustible well of tenderness in the man's nature, and it was sweetened by the grace of God in his heart. We sometimes thought he erred by excess in this particular. He was unwilling to think anything but good of them, and was thus apt to be influenced too much by designing and astute Chinamen. Often we have heard it said, "Well, if you won't listen to us, Dr. Talmage will."
John Talmage had made such substantial attainments in Hebrew and Greek, that when some years afterward the distinguished Dr. McClelland resigned as professor of these languages in the Theological Seminary at New Brunswick, he was talked of as Dr.
The letter reads as follows: "'When the flocks of wild geese make their orderly flight, the glorious autumnal season deserving of laudation, my thoughts wander far away to you, Teacher Talmage, whose noble presence is worthy to be saluted with bow profound, and whose dignified manners invite to close intimacy. Truly, the blame of this rests on me.
Twemlow! Milly appealed quickly, 'do tell Harry and Ethel what Dr. Talmage said to you. I think it's so funny I can't do the accent. 'What accent? he laughed. She hesitated, caught. 'Yours, she replied boldly. 'Very amusing! Harry said judicially, after the episode of the Brooklyn collection had been related.
She is the most dreadful product of the "Social Evil," of unhallowed sexual commerce is the child of Mammon and Medusa, the blue- ribbon abortion of this monster-bearing age. That man who first coined the phrase, "Nothing succeeds like success," had a great head. Talmage is emphatically a success, viewed from a worldly point of view.
The threatening war cloud did blow over, and a restraint, at least temporary, was laid upon the officials and the people in their treatment of foreigners. Dr. Talmage was a man of strong convictions, at the same time possessed of a spirit of genuine catholicity. The brethren connected with the London and English Presbyterian Missions recognized him as a true friend.
Talmage, why the Jew bible is inspired, is that prophecies in it have been fulfilled. How do we know that the prophecies were not fulfilled before they were written? They are so vague that you can't tell what was prophesied. If you will read the Jew bible carefully, you will see that there was not a line, not a word, prophesying the coming of Christ.
Joshua's first victory, says Tahnage, was conquering the spring freshet of Jordan. As a matter of fact, Jehovah transacted that little affair. See, says Talmage, "one mile ahead go two priests carrying a glittering box four feet long and two feet wide. It is the Ark of the Covenant." He forgets to add that the Jew God was supposed to be inside it. Jack in the box is nothing to God in a box.
One passage is almost sublime. It is only one step off. "What," asks Talmage, "is the matter with Joshua? Has he fallen in an apoplectic fit? No. He is in prayer." Our profanity would not have gone to that length. But we take Talmage's word for it that prayer and apoplexy are very much alike. The five kings were decapitated.
