"the bridal of the earth and sky" All ma
ture seemed to rejoice at the wonderful fact
which was that day commemorated-the ris-
ing of the Saviour of the world from the
tomb in which His dead body had lain for
two days. The observance of Easter is now
more general, it seems, among all Christian
bodies, than at any period since the Refor-
nation. Before that time Christians the
world over united I'm joyously celebrating the
day, but since then its observance has been
chiefly confined TO the Roman Catholic
Church, the Greek Church, the Church of
England and the Protestant Episcopal
Church in the United States.
In our own country many of the churches,
besides the Episcopal and the Roman Catho-
lie, were adorned with flowers, on Easter
Day. Sermons on the resurrection were
preached and the music was specially select
cd for the occasion. In ali of them large
congregations were present.
