Combined,

floor of rock, roof of rock, wall of rock,
niche Of rock cannot keep Christ in the
crypt. Come out and come up he must.
Came out and came up he did. Prefgura-
tion. The first fruits of them that sleep
Just as certain as you and go down into
the grave, Just so certain we will come up
again. Though you pile up on the top of
us all the powders of the mountains you
cannot keep us down. Though we be
buried under the coral Of the deepest cav
ern of the Atlantic ocean we will rise to
the surface.
Ahl my friends, death and the grave are
not what they used to be to us, for now
walking around the spot where the Lord
lay, we find vines and flowers covering up
the tomb, and that which we called place
of skulls has become beautiful garden
Yea, now there are four gardens instead of
one-Garden of Eden, Garden of the
Worlds. .Sepulcher, Garden of Earth's Re
generation, Garden of Heaven.
WITH TRUMPETs AND sHoUrINGs.
Various scriptural accounts say that the
work of grave breaking will beg n with the
blast of trumpets and shoutings; whence
take it that the first intimation Of the day
will be a sound from heaven such as has
never before been heard. 1t may not be so
very loud, but it will be penetrating. There
are mausoleums so deep that undisturbed
silence has slept there ever since the day
when the sleepers were left in them. The
great noise shall strike through them
Among the corals of the sea- miles deep,
where the shipwrecked rest, the sound will
strike. No one will mistake it for thunder
or the blast of earthly minstrelsy. There
will be heard the voice of the uncounted
nf hn vuha hin
out of the gates of eternity, flying toward
the tomb crying: "MAke way Oh, grave,
give us back our bodyl We gave it to you
in corruption; surrender it now in incor-
ruption." Thousands of spirits arising
from the field of Sedan, and from among
the rocks of Gettysburg, and from among
the passes of South Mountain. A hundred
thousand are crowding Greenwood. On
this grave three spirits meet, for there were
three bodies in that tombl Over that fam
lily vault twenty spirits hover, for there
were twenty bodies.
From New York to Liverpool, at every
few miles on the sea route, a group of hun
dreds of spirits coming down to the water
to meet their bodies. See that multitude!
That is where the Central America sank
And yonder multitudel That is where the
Pacific went down. Found at last That
is where the City of Boston sank. And
yonder the President went down. A soil
tary spirit alights on yonder prairie. That
is where traveller perished in the snow.
The whole air is full of spirits-spirits fly
ing north, spirits flying south, spirits fly
ing east, spirits flying west. Crash! goes
Westminster abbey rs all its dead kings
and orators and poets get up.
Strange commingling of spirits searching
among the ruins. William Wllberforce,
the good, and Queen Elizabeth, the bad.
Crash go the pyramids, and the monarchs
of Egypt rise out of the heart of the desert.
Snapl go the iron gates of the modern
vaults. The country graveyard will look
like a rough plowed field as the mounds
break open All the kings of the earth;
all the senators; all the great men; all the
beggars; all the armies-Victors and van
quished; all the ages-barbario and civil
ized; all those who were chopped by gull
lotne or simmered in the fire or rotted in
dungeons; all the infants of a day; all the
octogenarians--alll ALL Not one straggler
left behind. ALI ALL
And now the air is darkened with the
fragments of bodies that are coming to-
gether from the opposite corners of the
earth. Lost limbs finding their mate
bone to bone, sinew to sinew-until every
Joint is reconstructed, and every arm finds
its socket, and the amputated limb of the
surgeons table shall be set again at the
point from which IL was severed. A sur
geon told me that after the battle of Bull
Run he amputated limbs, throwing them
out of the window, until the pile reached
up TO the window sill. All those frag
ments will have to take their places.
Those who were born blind shall have
eyes divlnely kndled; those who were
lame shall have limb substituted In
all the hosts of the resurrected not one eye
missing, not one foot clogged, not one
arm palsied, not one tongue dumb, not
one ear deaf
PRACR TOWARD HEAVEN AND EARTH
Wake up, my friends, this day, this
glorious Easter morning, with all these
congratulations. If understand this day,
10 means peace toward heaven and peace
toward earth. Great wealth of flowers!
Bring more flowers. Wreath them around
the brazen throat of the cannon, plant
them in the deserts until it shall blossom
like the rose, braid them into the name of
the war charger rs he comes back. No
more red dahlias of human blood. Give us
white lilies of peace. Strew all the earth
with Easter garlands, for the resurrection
we celebrate this morning implies all kinds
of resurrection, a score OF resurrections
Resurrection from death and sin TO the
life of the gospel. Resurrection of apos-
tolic faith. Resurrection of commercial In
tegrity Resurrection Of national honor
Resurrection of international goodwill
Resurrection of art. Resurrection OF liter.
ature. Resurrection of everything that is
good and kind and geNerous and just and
holy and beautiful, Nothing 20 stay down,
to stay buried, but sin and darkness and
pain and disease and revenge and death
Let those tarry in the grave forever
"Glory TO God in the highest, and on earth
peace, good will To men,
Christ, the Lord, Is risen today,
Sons of men and angels say,
Raise your songs and triumphs high,
Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply.
Loves redeeming work is done,
Fought the fight, the battle won.
Lol the suns eclipse Is DER;
Lol he sets In blood no more.
Rather Mean Trick.
