(0 dels Wasiiinoton, April 7. — The preot f'hiistinn festival celebrated in all tlie ehurchea is the theme of 1M\ Talinage't diseourse; 1 Corinthians xv, 120, “Now i.t (.'hrlst risen from the dead and I e- eonie the first frultH of them that slept.” tin this glorious Raster morning, amid the music and the flowers, l give you Christian salutation. Tills morn ing Russian meeting Russian on the streets of St. Petersburg halls him with the salutation, “Christ is risen!” uud is answered by ids friend in salu tation. "He is risen Indeed!” In some parts of England nd Ireland to this very day there is the superstition that on Easter morning the sun dances in the heavens, and well may we forgive such a superstition, which illustrates the fact that the natural world seems to sympathize with the spiritual. Hail, Easter morning! Flowers! Flowers! All of them a-voice, all of them a-tongue, all of them full ot speech today. I bend over one of the lilies, and 1 hear It say: “Consider the lilies of the Held, how they grow. They toil not, neither do they spin, yet Solo mon in all hfs glory was not arrayed like one of these.” 1 bend over a rose, and it seems to whisper, "1 am the rose of Sharon.” And then 1 stand and listen. From all sides there comes the chorus of flowers, saying, “If Clod so clothed the grass of the Held, which to day is, and tomorrow Is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?” Flowers! Flowers! Braid them into the bride’s hair. Flowers! Flowers! Strew them over the graves of the dead, sweet prophecy of the resurrec tion. Flowers! Flowers! Twist them into a garland for my Lord Jesus on Easter morning, and “Glory he to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was In the beginning, is now and ever shall he!” The women came to the Saviour's tomb, and they dropped spices all around the tomb, and those spices were the seed that began to grow, and from them came all the flowers of this Easter morn. The two angels robed In white took hold of the stone at the Saviour’s tomb, and they hurled it with such force down the hill that it crushed in the door of the world's sepulcher, ami the stark and the dead must come forth. I care net how labyrinthine the mau soleum or how costly the sarcophagus or however beautifully parterred the family grounds—we want them all bro ken up by the Lord of the resurrec tion. They must come out. Father and mother—they must come out; hus band and wife—they must come out; brother and sister—they must come out; our darliug children—they must come out. The eyes that we closed with such trembling fingers must open again in the radiance of that morn; the arms we folded in dust must join ours in an embrace of reunion; the voice that was hushed In our dwelling must be retuned. Oh, how long some of you seem to be waiting for the resurrec tion! And for these broken hearts to day I mate a soft, cool bandage out of Easter flowers. Prophecy of Resurrection. This morning I find in the risen Christ a prophecy of our own resurrec tion, my text setting forth the idea that as Christ has risen so bis people will rise. He, the first sheaf of the resurrection harvest. He, “the first fruits of them that slept.” Before 1 get through this morning I will walk through all the cemeteries of the dead, through all the country graveyards, where your loved ones are buried, and I will pluck off these flowers, and I will drop a sweet promise of the gos pel—a rose of hope, a lily of Joy on ev ery tomb, the child’s tomb, the hus band’s tomb, the wife’s tomb, the fa ther’s grave, the mother’s grave, aud, while we celebrate the resurrection of Christ, we will at the same time cele brate the resurrection of all the good. “Christ, the first fruits of them that slept.” If I should come to you and ask you for the names of the great conquerors of the world, you would say Alexan der, Ciesar, Philip, Napoleon 1. Ah! You have forgotten to mention the name of a greater conqueror than all these—a cruel, a ghastly conqueror. I|e rode on a black horse across Wa terloo and Chalons and Atlanta, the bloody hoofs crushing the hearts of nations. It la the conqueror Death. He carries a black flag, and he takes no prisoners. He digs a trench across the hemispheres and fills it with the car casses of nations. Fifty times would the world have been depopulated had not God kept making new generations. Fifty times the world would have swung lifeless through the air—no man on the mountain, no man on the sea, an abandoned ship plowing through immensity. Again and again has he done this work with all generations. He is a monarch as well as n con queror; his palace a sepulcher; his fountains the falling tears of a world. Blessed he God In the light of this Easter morning! I see the prophecy that his scepter shall he broken and his palace shall be demolished. The hour is coming when all who are In their graves shall come forth. Christ risen, we shall rlsft. Jesus, “the first fruits of them that slept.” Maay Mysteries. Now, oround this doctrine of the res urrection there are a great many mys teries. You come to me and nay, “If the bodies of the desd are to he raised, how Is this and how Is that?” And you ask me a thousand questions I am iucom|M.'teot to answer. Hut there are a great many things you believe that you are not able to explain. You would Ik* a very foolish man to say, “I won’t believe anything I can't understand.” Why, putting clown one kind of flower seed, comes there up this flower of this color? Why, putting down another flower seed, comes there up a flower of this color? One flower white, another flower yellow, another flower crimson. Why the difference when the seeds look to he very much alike—are very much alike? Explain these things; ex iU&UlUmu wart e o Uii auger; eiulftln the difference—why the onk leaf Is dif ferent from the leaf of the hickory. Tell me how the Lord Almighty can turn the chariot of his omnipotence on a rose leaf. You ask me questions about the resurrection I cannot an swer. 1 will ask you a thousand ques tions about everyday life yon cannot answer. I find my strength In this passage, “All who are in their graves shall come forth.” 1 do not pretend to make the explanation. You go on and say: “Sup pose a returned missionary dies in this city. When he was in China, his foot was amputated. He lived years after in England, and there he had an arm amputated. He is hurled today In yon der cemetery. In the resurrection will the foot come from Chinn, will the arm come from England and will the dif ferent parts of the hotly he reconstruct ed In the resurrection? How Is that possible?” You say that “the human body changes every seven years and by 70 years of age a man has had ten bodies. In the resurrection, which will come up?” You say: “A man will die and his hotly crumble into the dust ami that dust he taken up into the life of the vegetable. An animal may eat the vegetable. Men eat the animal. In the resurrection that body, distributed in so many directions, how shall it be gathered up?” Have you any more questions of this style to ask? Come on and ask them. I do not pretend to answer them. I fall hack upon the an nouncement of God’s word, “All who are In their graves shall come forth.” The Last Day. You have noticed, I suppose. In read ing the story of the resurrection, that almost every account of the Bible gives the idea that the characteristic of that day will be a great sound. I do not know that it will he very loud, but 1 know it will he very penetrating. In the mausoleum, where silence has reigned a thousand years, that voice must penetrate. In the coral cave of the deep that voice must penetrate. Millions of spirits will come through the gates of eternity, and they will come to the tombs of the earth, and they will cry: “Give us hack our bodies. We gave them to you in cor ruption. Surrender them now in in corruption.” Hundreds of spirits hov ering about the fields of Gettysburg, for there the bodies are buried. A hundred thousand spirits coming to Greenwood, for there the bodies are hurled, waiting for the reuniou of body and soul. All along the sea route from New York to Liverpool, at every few miles where a steamer we.it dowu, departed spirits coming hack, hovering over the wave. There Is where the City of Boston perished. Found at last. There is where the President perished. Steam er found at last. There is where the Central America went down. Spirits hovering—hundreds of spirits hovering, waiting for the reunion of body and soul. Out on the prairie a spirit alights. There Is where a traveler died in the snow. Crash goes Westminster ab bey, aud the poets and the orators come forth! Wonderful mingling of good and bad. Crash go the pyramids of Egypt, and the mouarchs come forth. Who can sketch the scene? 1 sup pose that one moment before that gen eral rising there will he an entire si lence, save as you hear the grinding of a wheel or the clatter of the hoofs of a procession passing luto the cemetery. Silence in all the caves of the earth. Silence on the side of the mountain. Silence dowu In the valleys and far out into the sea. Silence. But in a mo ment, In the twinkling of an eye, as tlje archangel’s trumpet comes pealing, rolling, crashing across the mountain and sen, the earth will give one terrific shudder, and the graves of the dead will heave like the waves of the sea, and Osteud and Sevastopol aud Chalons will stalk forth In the lurid air, and the drowned will come up and wring out their wet locks above the billow, and all the land and all the sea be come one moving mass of life—all faces, all ages, all conditions gazing in one direction and upon one throne, the throne of resurrection. “All who nre In their graves shall come forth.” The Perfect Body. “But,” you say, "If this doctrine of the resurrection Is true, ns prefigured by this Easter morning, can you tell us something about the resurrected body?” 1 can. There are mysteries about that, hut 1 shall tell you three or four things in regard to the resurrected body that are beyond guessing and be yond mistake. In the first place, 1 remark In regard to your resurrected body. It will he a glorious body. The body we have now Is a mere skeleton of what It would have been If sin had not marred aud defaced it. Take the most exquisite statue that was ever made by an artist and chip it here and chip It there with a chisel and batter and bruise It here and there and then stand It out In the storms of a hundred years, and the beauty would he gone. Well, the hu man body has been chipped and bat tered and bruised and damaged with the storms of thousands of years, the physical defects of other generations coming down from geqpratlon to gen eration, we Inheriting the infelicities of past generations. But In the morning of the resurrection the body will ha adorned and beautified according to the original model. And there Is no such difference between a gymnast and an emaciated wretch In a lazaret to ns there will he a difference be tween our bodies as they are now and our resurrected forms. There you will see the perfect eye after the waters of death have washed out the stains of tears and study; there you will see the perfect bund after the knots of toll have been untied from the knuckles; there you will see the form erect and clastic after the burdens.have gone off the shoulder -the very life of God in the body. In this world the most im pressive thing, the most repressive thing. Is the human fuee, but that fare Ik veiled with the griefs of a thousand years. But In the resurrection morn that veil will be taken away from the face, and the noonday sun Is dull and dim ond stupid compared with the out- flaming glories of the countenances of the saved. When those faces of the righteous, those resurreehsl faces, turn toward the gate or look up toward the throne, It will he like the dawning of a now morning on the bosom of ever lasting day! O glorious, resurrected body! A Ulorlous Thought. tiuj 4 fflflWH 1? yffSTfl iq body which you are to get in the resur rection, it will he an Immortal body. These bodies are wasting nwny. Some body has said that as soon as we be gin to live we begin to die. Unless we keep putting the fuel Into the furnace the furnace dh-s out. The blood ves sels are canals taking the breadstuffs to all ports of the system. We must he reconstructed hour by hour, day by day. Sickness and death are all the time trying to get their pry under the tenement or to push us off the embank ment of the grave, but, blessed he God, in the resurrection we will get a body Immortal. No malaria in the air, no cough, no neuralgic twinge, no rheu matic pang, no fluttering of the heart, no shortness of breath, no ambulance, no dispensary, no hospital, no invalid’s chair, no spectacles to improve the dim vision; hut health. Immortal health! () ye who have aches and pains in describable this morning, ye who are never well, ye who are lacerated with physical distresses, let me tell yon of the resurrected laxly, free from all dis ease. Immortal! Immortal! I go further and say In regard to that hotly which you nre to get In the resurrection it will be a vigorous hotly. We walk now eight or ten miles, and we nre fatigued. We lift a few hun dred pounds, and we are exhausted. Unarmed, we meet a wild beast, and we must run or flee or climb or dodge, because we are incompetent to meet it. We toil eight or ten hours ener getically, and then we nre weary, but in the resurrection we arc to have a body that never gets tired. Is it not a glorious thought? Plenty of occupation In heaven. 1 suppose Broadway, New York, in the busiest season of the year, at noonday, is not so busy as heaven is all the time. Grand projects of mercy for other worlds. ’Victories to he cele brated. The downfall of despotism on earth to be announced. Great songs to be learned and sung. Great expedi tions on which God shall send forth his children. Plenty to do, but no fatigue. If you are seated under the trees of life, it will not he to rest, but to talk over with some old comrade old times, the battles where you fought shoulder to shoulder. When MornltiK Break*. Sometimes In this world we feel we would like to have such a body as that. There is so much work to be done for Christ, there are so many tears to be wiped away, there are so many burdens to lift, there Is so much to he achieved for Christ, we some times wish that from the first of Janu ary to the last of December we could toil on without stopping to sleep or to fake any recreation or to rest or even to take food—that we could toil right on without stopping a moment In our work of commeudiug Christ nud heav en to all the people, hut we all get tired. It Is a characteristic of the human body lu this eoudition; we must get tired. Is It not a glorious thought that we 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 aud fling It into the tomb If at thy bidding I shall have a body that never wearies. That Is a splendid resurrection hymn that we have all sung: So Jesus slept. Cod'* dyinjj Son I’asscd through the grave and blessed the bed. llest here, blest saint, till from bis tbrone The morning breaks to pierce the shade. 0 blessed resurrection! 8peak out, sweet flowers, beautiful flowers. While you tell of a risen Christ tell of the righteous who shall rise. May God fill you this morning with anticipation! I heard of a father and sou who, among others, were shipwrecked at sen. The father and the son climbed Into the rigging. The father held on, but the son after awhile lost his hold on the rigging and was dashed down. The father supposed he had gone hope lessly under the wave. The next clay the father was brought ashore from the rigging in an exhausted state and laid on a bed in a- fisherman’s hut, ami after many hours had passed he came to consciousness and saw lying beside him on the same bed his hoy. Ob, my friends, what a glorious thing it will be if we wake up at last to find our loved ones beside us, coming up from the same plot In the graveyard, com ing up In the same morning light—tlie father and son alive forever, all the loved ones alive forever, never more to weep, never more to part, never more to die. May the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant make you perfect in every good work to do his will, and let the associations of this morning transport our thoughts to the grander assem blage before the throne. The one hun dred ami forty and four thousaml and the “great multitude that no man can number,” some of our best friends among them, we after awhile to Join the multitude. Glorious anticipation! Blc*t ire the Mint* beloved of Cod; Wished arc their rubes in Jesus' blood. Brighter than angels, lo, they Rhine, Their wonder* splendid and lubllcne. My soul anticipate* the day, Mould stretch her wing* and aoar away To aid the song, the palm to bear, - And bow, the chief of ainneri, there.
