COMPARISON OF EpIrAPHs.
Rev. j. J. Muir's Sermon on the "Ifs
of Agnosticism.'

Rev. J. j. Muir's Sermon on the IFS
of fAgnosticism.''
A comparison of epitaphs was the feature
of the sermon of Rev. ]. j. Muir at E Street
Baptist Church last night. His topic was
THE Ifs of Agnosticism," and his text
/ Peter l: 3, and o.
Referring TO the fact that the certainty
of life hereafter was the cause OF the sa-
cred writer's thanksgiving, he said it was
this, too, that put upon the tombs of the
Christian dead beautiful words inspiring
hope and giving comfort to broken hearts.
On the other hand, the agnostic is full
of doubt and dread. When Prof. Huxley,
the father of agnosticism, died they placed
upon his monument these words:
IND III there be no meeting past the grave;
If all is darkness, silence, yet tits rest.
Be not afraid, ye waiting hearts that weep,
For God still giveth His beloved sleep,
And if an endless sleep He wills, so best"
He called attention to the peculiar sadness
of these words, the lack of consolation in
them. He said Julian Hawthorne wrote
recently, that when he called on Prof
Huxley at his home some time ago, the
great scientist sat at evening and listened
to his daughters singing oflove and better
land.
As they sang tears filled the old mans
eyes and coursed down his cheeks. Yet in
his death there was nothing better tn be
said than content, IL hereafter, then should
be complete cessation of conscious life.
