can number"
But my subject advances, and tells
you OF their anteccdcnts, 'of all M.
tons and Hundreds and tongues"
Some of them spoke Scotch, Irish,
German, English, Italian, Spanish,
Tamil, Choctaw, Burmese. After men
have been long in the land you can tell
by their accentuation from what ma
tionality they came; aud suppose in
the great throng around the throne, IL
will not be difficult to tell from what
purt of the earth they came.
These reapcd Sicilian wheatiiclns and
These under blistering skies gathered
tamarinds aud vans These crossed
the desert ON camcls, aud those glanced
over the snow, drawn by Siberian dogs,
and these MIXED the goats far up on
the Swiss crags. These fought the
walrus and white bear in regions of
everlasting snow, and those heard the
song of fiery-winged birds in African
thickets. They were white, They
were black They were red. They
were copper color From all lands.
from all ages, They were plunged into
Austrian dungeons. They passed
through Spanish inquisitions They
were confined in London Tower. They
fought with beasts in the amphithca-
tire, They were Mornvians. They
Were Waldenses They were Albigenses.

We're Sandwich Islanders
In this world men prefer different
kinds of government. The United
States want republic. The British
government needs to be n constitu-
tional monarchy. Austria wants ab.
solutism. But when they come up

II that monarchy were disbandcd and
IL were submitted To all the hosts
of heaven who should rule, then by the

burgcsscs, triumvirates, congresses,
misunderstanding in the presence
OF Christs sceptrc, swaying over all the
people who have entered upon that
great glory. Oh! can you imagine IL?
What u strange commingling OF tastes,
of histories, Of nationalities, "of all
nations and kindrcds and people and
tongues"
My subject advances and tells you OF
the dress of those In heaven, The OBJ

to veil the body, but to adorn IL The

heaven? IL saw great multitude

In this world we had sometimes TO
have on working apparel. Bright and
lustrous garments would be rldicu-
lousy out OF place sweltering amid
forges, or mixing paints, or plastering
ceilings, or binding books. In this
world we must have the wording day

how coarse IL IL. II Is appropriate

and there is no more drudgery and no
more WEAKNESS, we shall stand before

every hour OF every day heart breaks.
The earth from zone To zone and from
pole to pole is cleft with scpulchral
rent; and the earth can easily afford to
bloom and blossom when IL is SO rich
with Wondering life. Graves! graves!
graves! But when these bereavements
have all passed, and there are no more
graves to dig, and no more collins to
make, and no more sorrow to suffer.

My friends, will you join that an

If we cannot sing that song
on earth, we will not be able to sing
il in heaven. Can it le that our good
friends in that land will walk all
that great throDg OF which
speak, looking for us and not finding
us? Will they come down to the gate
and ask If we have passed through, and
not find us reported as having come?
win they look through the folios Of
eternal light and find out names unre-
corded? Is all this a representation OF
n land we shall never see?---of song
we shall never sing?
