Ou thia glorious Enster morning,
amid tho muslo nnd tho Howers, I give
you Christiau salutation. This morn
ing, KusBiau meeting Busslan on tho
Btreots of St. Petersburg, hunls him
with th? salutation: "Christ is risen 1...
nnd is answered by his friend in salu
tation: "He is risen iudoedl" Insomc
parts of England and Ireland to GIAB
very day there is tho .luperstition that
on Easter mornlug tho Bun dances in
the heavens. And well may we forgive
suoh a superstition, which illustrates
tho fact that tho natural world seems
to sympathize with tho spiritual.
Hail,. Easter morning! Flower?!
F?owersl All of them n-voiec, nil of
thom a-tonguo, all of them full of
speech to-day. I bend over one of thc
lUies, and I hear.it say? "Consider thd
Hiles of tho valley, how they grow;
they toil not, neither do they spin, yet
Solomon in all lils glory Was not ar
rayed like ono of these." I bend over
a TOBO, and lt scenw to whisper: "1
ani the roso of Sharon." And then 1
stand and liston. From all sides there
comes tho chorus of Howers, saying:
"If Qod so clothed the grass of Hie Held
which to-day is and to-morrow ls east
into the oven, shall Ho not much more
clothe you, O ye of little faith?"
' Flowers! Flowers! Braid them Into
tho bride's hair. Flowers! Flowers!
Strow them over tho graves of tho
dead, ?weet prophecy of th? resurrec
tion. Flowers! Flowers! Twist them
Into a garland for my Lord Jesus on
Easter morning, and "Glory bo to the
Father, end to the Son, and to thc
Holy Ghost; as it was iii tho beginning,
is now and ever ?hall be." Thu women
cam ft to the Saviour's tomb, and the.y
dropped spices all around thc tomb,
and those spices were tho seed that
began to grow, and" from thom came
nil the flowers of this Easter morn.
\Tho two angels robed in white took
hold of the stone at the Saviour's tomb,
and they hurled it with such force
down tho hill that it orushed in thc
door of the world's sepulcher, and thc
ht ark and tho dead must como forth.
I caro hot how labyrinthine the ninu
Holoum or how costly the sarcophagus
or however beautlfully parterred thc
family grounds, wo want thom all
broken up by tho Lord of tho resur
rection. . $ They must come out. Fa
ther and mother-they must como out.
Husbaxvi ttTi?-^ito^?hTy^?m?Tc^me
"''out. Brother and sister-they must
come out. Our darling children-they
must come out. Tho eyes that we
closed with such trembling Angers
must open again in tho radiance of
that morn. The arms wc folded in dust
must join ours in an embrace of rc
union. The voico that was hushed in
our dwelling, must be returned. Oh
how long some of you seem to be wait
!ng for tho resurrection! And fo
theso broken henrts to-day I mnko a
soft, cool bandago out of Easter
flowers.
This morning I And in tho risen
Christ a prophecy of our own resur
rection, my text setting forth tho idea
that' as Christ has risen BO His people
will rise. He, the first sheaf of the
resurrection harvest. He, "the first
fruits of thom that slept." Before I
get through this morning I will walk
through all the cemeteries of the
dead, through all thc country grave
yards, .where your loved ones aro
buried, and I will phi ck off these flow
ers, and I will drop a sweet picmi.se
of the Gospel-a rose of hope, a lily
Of Joy-on every tomb-t ho child's
tomb, the husband's tomb, the wife's
tomb, the father's grave, thc mother's
grave. And while we celebrate the res
urrection of Christ we will nt the same
time celebrate tho resurrection of nil
the good. "Christ, thc first fruits of
them that slept."
If t should come to you and ash you
for tho names of the great conquerors
of the world, you would say Alexander,
Caesar, Phillp, Napoleon I. Ah, you
have forgotten to mention the name
of a greater conqueror than nil these
.-a cruej, a ghastly conqueror. Ito
rode on a black horse across Waterloo
and Chalons and Atlanta, the bloody
hoofs crushing the hearts of nations.
It ls tho oonqueror Death. He enrries
a black flag, and he takca no prisoners.
He digs a trench aorons tho hem
isphere* and fills it with the carcasses
of nations. Fifty times would Gie
Avorkl haye been depopulated had not
God kept making now generations,
?lfty limes the world would have
awong lifeless through tho air-no man
on the mountain, no.man.on tho nea,
an abandoned ship plowing through
Immensity. Again and again lias he
done this work with nil generations.
He is a monarch as well as a con
queror; his palace a sepulcher; his
fountains the falling tears of a world.
Blessed be God! l?'^lhe light of this
EaBter morning I soe the prophecy
that his scepter shall be broken and
his palace shall be demolished. Thc
hour ls coming when all who aro in
their graves shall come forth. Christ
risen, we shall rise. Jesus, 'Allie iirst
fruits of thom that slept."
Now, around this doctrine of the res
urrection there arc a great many mys
teries. You como to niCviind fifty: "If
the bodies of the dead arc tobe raised,
how is this and'how is that?" And you
.sk me a thousand questions I am in?

eau turn tho charlot of His omnipo
tence oh u rose leaf. You ask mo ques
tions about tho resurrection I cannot
answer. I will ask you a thousand
questions about everyday lifo you can
not answer..
. I find my strength In this passage:
"All who aro lu their graves shall
como forth." I do not protend to
make tho explanation. You go on
and say: "Suppose a roturnod mis
sionary dies in this oity. When ho
was in China, his foot was ampu
tated; ho lived years after in Eng
land, and thero ho had an arm ampu
tated; ho is burled to-day in yonder
cemetery. In tho resurrection will
tho foot como from China, will tho
arm como from Eugland, and will tho
different parts of tho body bo re
constructed In tho resurrection? How
is that possible?"
You havo noticed, I suppose, In
reading tho story of tho resurrection
that almost ovcry account of tho
Biblo gives tho idea that the charac
teristic of that day will bo a great
sound. I do not know that it will bo
vory loud, but I know it will bo very
penetrating. In tho maxisolcum
where .silence hus reigned a thousnnd
years that volco iiipst penetrate. In
thc corni cave of tho deer) that voice
must penetrate. Millions of spirits
will come through tho gatos of
eternity, and they will como to the
tombs of tho earth, and they will
cry: "Givo us back our bodies; wo
gavo them to you in corruption; sur
render them now in incorruption."

Who can sketch the scene? I sup
poso that ono moment before that
gcnoral rising there will bo an entire
siloncc, ?ave as you hear the grinding
of a wheel or tho clattor of tho hoofs
of a procession passing into tho cem
etery. Silence in all the caves of the
earth. Silence on tho Bido of the
mountain. Silence down in tho val
leys and far ont into the sea. Silence.
But Iii a moment, in tho twinkling of
an eye, as tho archangel's trumpet
comes pealing, rolling, crashing,
across tho mountain nnd sea, the
earth will give ono torriflo shudder,
and tho graves of tho dead will heave
liko tho waves of tho Be?, and Ostond,
Sevastopol and Chalons will Btalk
forth In the lurid air, and the
drowned will oom? up and wring out
their wet looks above tho billows, and
all the land and all thc sen become
ono moving mass of life-all faces,
all ages, all conditions, gazing in one
dlreotlon and upon one throne-tho
throne of resurrection. "All who aro
in their gi-aves shall oome forth.'
"But," you say, "if this dootrlno of
tho resurrection is truo, as prefigured
by this Easter morning, can you tell
us something about tho resdrrected
body?" I can. There aro mysteries
about that, but I shall toll you threo
or four things In regard to tho res
urrected body that aro beyond guess
ing and beyond mistake
In the first place, I remark In re
gard to your resurrected body, it will
be a glorious body. The body wo
have now is a mero skeleton of what
it would have been if sin had not
marred aud defaced it. Take the
mont exquisite statue that was over
made by an artist and chip it here
and chip it there with a ohisel, and
batter and bruise it hero and there
and then stand It out in tho storms
of a hundred years, and tho beauty
would bo gone. Well, tho human
body has been chipped and battered
and bruised and damagod with tho
storms of thousands of years-the
physical defects o-f other generations
coming down from generation to gen
eration, wq inheriting tho infelicities
of past generations. But in tho morn
ing of tho resurrection the body will
bo adorned aud beautified according
to tho original model. And thoro is
no such difference between a gymnast I
and an emaciated wretch in a laz
arotto as thero will bo a difference
between our bodies ns they aro now
and our resurrected forms. Thore
you will seo tho perfect eye after the
water? of death havo washed out tho
stains of tears and study. There you
will see the perfeot hand after tho
knots of toll have berm untied from
tho knuckles. Thero you will seo tho
form erect and elastlo after tho bur
dens havo gone off tho shoulder-tho
very lifo of God in the body. ' In this
world tho most, impressive thing, tho

But I romnrk, also, lil regard to that
body which you aro to get in tho rosur*

Theso bodi?s aro wasting away. Some

yo who ?re novcr well, yo who aro

I /jo furtkor and say in regard to
that body which you aro to got in tho
resurrection,it will bo a vigorous hody.
Wo walk now eight or tcii milos, and
wo aro fatigued; wo lift a few hundred
pounds, and wo aro exhausted; un
armed, wo meet a wild beast, and wo
must run or flee or climb or dodge bo
causo we uro Incompetent to meet it;
we toil eight or ten h^prs cncrgcnticnl
ly, nnd then wc aro weary. But in tho
resurrection wc are to havo a body
that never gets tired. IB it not a glori
ous thought?
Plenty of occupation in Heaven. I
supposo Broadway, New York, in tho
busiest season of tho year at noonday
is not so busy as Heaven is all tho
timo. Grand projects of mercy for
other worlds. Victorien to bo cele
brated. Thc downfall of despotism on
earth to be announced. Groat songs to
bo learned and sung. Great expedi
tions on which God shall send forth
His children. Plenty to do, but no
fatigue. If you aro seated under tho
trees of lifo, lt will not bo to rest, but
to talk over with some old comrade old
times-tho battles whero you fought
; shoulder to shoulder.
Sometimes in this world wo feel wo
would like to haye such a body ns that.
There is so much work to be dono for
Christ, there are so many tears to bo
wiped away, there are so many bur
dons to life, there is so much to bo
achieved for Christ, wo sometimes
wish that from the flrst of January to
the last of December wa could toil on
without stopping to sleep or to tako
vfcoy recreation or to rest or even to
takt,f ood'-that we could toil right on
withouts stopping a moment in our
work of cohrmsndlng Christ and
Heaven to all the peopfSoowiswyo all

human body in this condition; wc must,

that wo are going to have a body that
will never grow weary? O glorious
resurrection day! Gladly will I fling
aside this poor body of sin and fling
it into tho tomb if at thy bidding I
shall have a body that never wearies.
That ia a splendid resurrection hymn
that wo have all sung;
Bo Jesus slept. Clod's dying Son
Passed through tho gravo and blessed the

laid on a bcd in a fisherman's lint, and
after many hours had passed he carno

be if we wako up at last to find our

FIR8T CROP REPORT.
Condition of the Young Crop. Facts
of Interest to tho Farmers*
Last wook tbo first wookly bullotin
of tho soason of tho weathor and oiops
in South Carolina was ?ESUod by Diroo
tor Bauor of tho South Carolina sootion
of tho olimato and or op BOivioc of tho
Unitod States weathor bureau. It will
be of special intercut. It reads as fol
lows:
Tho week onding Monday, April 8th,
avoragod about sevon degrees per {day
ooolcr than usual, with light frost on
thc morning of tho 4th over praotioally
tho ontiro y tato, that retarded growth
of vegetation, but was not oHiorwiso
injurious. Thoro waa a deficiency in
sunshine.
The rainfall was oxoossivo over the
wholo State, and tho amounts lor the
wook, at difforont points, ranged from
ono to noarly four inches. In tho up
country, lands wore badly washed and
lowlands flooded. Tho wot condition
of tho soil stopped tho plows tho great
er part of tho week, thus delaying tho
preparation of lands and planting op
orations, although farm work is woll
advanced for tho soason. It has bcon
gonorally too wot for plowing over tho
woatorn half of tho Stato sinoo Maroh
25th,
Corn, rico, molona, oano, gard o no,
and minor oropa generally, havo boen
extensively plantod over tho custom
and oontral coundon, but germination
is slow, and oom is ooming up to poor
stands.
Over tho west?rn oounlios planting
operations havo undo less progroBB,
although somo oom, minor oropa and
gardons havo bcon plantod. Most of
the lands for ootton havo boon made
ready to plant, and somo ootton has
boon plantod, but tho lattor work will
not beoomo general until tho middle of
April, or until tho woathor conditions
aro moro favorablo, exoept that muoh
sea island ootton is alroady plantod.
Tobaooo plants aro unusually small,
plontiful in plaoos and acareo in oth
ers, but none havo boon transplanted.
Wheat and fall Bown oats are both
promising, but aro small, having only
rooontly a? ar tod to grow; spring sown
oats aro poor. Somo bosnian flios aro
roportcd on wheat.
With tho exception of Kdgoflold
county, whore less than a full orop
of poaohos is indioatod, tho fruit pros
pects arc unimpaired, and tho troon
aro in bloom from tho mountains to
tho Boa.
Tho moisturo conditions aro favor,
ablo in tho ooast truok heida, but tho
tomporaturo has boon too low for quick,
germination of scods, and for rapid
growth of tho young plants, although
truok looks healthy. Somo potato bugs
havo appoarcd on whito potatoes.
Heavy shipmen ta of cabbages, and' a
few shipments of strawberries, havo
boen mado to northern markets from
Charleston. Ia goneral, truok is from
ono to two wocks lator than usual.
Eaton by an Alligator.
Tho military authorities at Montorey,
Mexioo, havo roooivod confirmation of
tho report that Liout. JOBO Carraonia,
a popular young offloer of tho Moxioan
army, has boon devoured by an alliga

"Thoro was a deep and., .cunningly
laid plot; under importa! sauotiou, to
oxtirpato (Jhrifitianity, expel all foreign

in Hu-Nnn. all of tho deaths ooourrcd
in tho northam proviuoos.
"Tho quoBtion has boon raisod at
homo as to whether tho Boxor uprising
was anti-missionary in its oharaoter.
No doubt exists in tho minds of any
w oil-inf or mod person in Ubina. Tho
movoment was undoubtedly against
foroignora ai) suoh, and tho orusado waa
directed against everything foroign,
Christianity, of eourso, included. Hsu
Ohing Ohon and Yuen Chang, 'two
ministors of tho foroign offico, would
not transmit tho awful' odiot whioh
roitoratod tho oidor to 'painfully'ex
tirpalo foroignora,' but obangod it sb os
to protoot all foreigners,' and tbon sent
it-hying over tho wiroa to tho romotost
provinces. Thoy wore sontonood to bo
out in two. MisBionarios woro tho olass
that bonofitod by this act of heroism.
Tho fact that evory missionary escaped
from 14 out of tho 18 provinces wo'
indioato that tho orusado was not
spooially anti-missionary.
Un tho prov?noos ?hih Li and Shan
Si ovory sohool, hospital, ohapcl and

Boxer? and imporial troops, tho only
oxoeption hoing tho proporty in the

oomploto was tho demolition' ' of
proporty by thc no ni ad fanatics that not
a vestigo was loft to mark tho sito; ovon
tho' foundations woro dug up and oarried
away. Thero was also dostruotion of
mission property in tho provinoo of
Shon Si; Ho -Tan, Hu . Nan,, Hupo.
Chang Si, Oho Kiang and K san Tung.
Jlolativo Christians havo boon tho
worst sufforors. Thoso who osoaped
tho gonorol slaughtor in tho northorn
prov?noos lost absolutely ovorything,
and many of them aro poriehing.from
oold and starvation.
.'Tho Scriptures doBtroyod will. ag

tho actual loss to tho uooiotv will not bb

many robl? and dovotod native workors.
Th?y woro wained of tho risks ' they
woro runing, but not a man of tho noblo

"We go on a oolportBig? tour. . God's

18 roturnod from that journey. . Tho

932,200; this year it was 77-616,700, Or
about throo quartors of a million moro.
This is tho largest numbor of pages
over printod iu ono year by the China

proportions to whioh tho work has
grown whoo, in common with all other.-.
forms of Christian work, it was sudden-.

Texas Cotton.

Year boforo last tho Texas orop 'amount

puts tho amount of Texas ootton.of tho

bales, V'horo is a vory striking differ
enoo in ti.o amount of money paid for
the orop of 1898-99 and that whioh tho
last orop in worth. Tho formor brought
about $89,000,000. Tno avorago t"rioo
paid for it was 5 oonts a pound. Owing
to tho groat advance of tho prioo the
last Texas orop will bring about $169, .
000,000, Or nearly twieo as muoh as tho
prooeding orop, though it was only
about 100,000 balos largor. Tho great
cr part of tho last orop was sold at.9
oents a pound, lt is gratifying to know
that tho inorossod cotton aoroago of
Texas will not bo as largo as was cx
pooted a fow wooka ago'. Tho Texas
papors generally predict that tho orop
of ootton in that stato this yoar will
not bo any largor than that of In nt yoar,
Tho farmors of that stato noona to real
izo that overproduction means a doolino
in prioo and aro refraining from con
