An overllowirnT coiuTreation at tho Brooklyn Tabor naclc tills morning attested the interea: the rellxiouu publio is taking in the series of tsermons Dr. Tahnago is preach ing on w'utt he saw conDnnatory of the fluriptuivs daring his tour from the Pyramids to tho Acropolis. Thin morning's sermon, the fourth of the series, was on the islands of tho Greek archipol.igo. Tho doctor took two texts: Acts sit, !), "When wo had dis covered Cyprus wo left it on the lefi hand;" and Revelation i, 9, "I, John was in tho isle that Is called Patmoi " Goodby, KgyptI Although interest Ing and itif ructivo beyond any conn try In nil tho world, excepting the Holy Land, Egpyt was to mo somewhat de pressing. It was a post mortem exatui nation of cities that died four thousand years ago. Tho mummies, or wrapped up bodies of tho dead, were prepared with reference to the Resurrection day, tho Egyptians departing this life want ing their bodies to bo kept In an good condition as possible so that they would bo presentable when they wero called again to occupy them. But if when Pharaoh comes to resurrection he llnds his body looking as I saw his mummy in tho museum at Boulac, his fcoul will becomo an unwilling tenant. The Sphinx also was to mo u stern mon strosity, a statue carved out of rock of red granite sixty-two feet high and nbout ono hundred and forty-three feet long, and having tho head of a man and tho body of a lion. Wo sat down in tho sand of the African descrt to study it With a cold smile It has looked down upon thousands of years of earthly history; Egyptian civilization, Grecian civiliza tion, Roman civilization; upon the riso and fall of thrones innumerable; tho victory and defeat of tho armies of centuries. It took thrco thousand years to make one wrinklo on its red check. It is dreadful in its stolidity. Its eyes have never wept a tear. Its cold ears liavu not listened to the groans of tho Egyptian nation, the burden of which I tried to weigh lost l oauuaui. its tieart is tione. it carcu L . not for Pliny when ho measured it in tho first century. It will care nothing for tho man who looks into its Imner- turbablo oountenanco in tho last cen tury. KGvrr riLh yet rkvtve. But Egypt will yet como up to tho glow of life. Tho Bible promises it. Tho missionaries liko my friend, good and great Doctor Lansing, aro sound ing a resurrection trumpet above those slain empires. There will bo some other Joseph at Memphis. There will be some other Jfoses on tho banks of tho Nile, Thero will bo somo other Ilypatia to teach good morals to tho degraded. Instead of a destroying angel to slay tho firstborn of Egypt, the angel of the New Testament will shako everlasting life from his wings over a nation born ia a day. When, soon after my arrival in Egypt, I took part in tho solemn and tender obsequies of a missionary from our own land, dying thero far away from tho Bepulchore of her fathers, and saw around her tho dusky and weeping con gregation of those whom she had como to save, I said to myself : "Hero is self sacrifice of tho noblest typo. Hero is heroism Immortal, Hero is a queen unto God forever. Hero is something grander than tho pyramids. Hero is that which thrills tho heavens. Hero la a spoehnen of that which will yet Bavo tho world." Goodby, Egypt I This hcrmon finds us on tho steamer Minerva In tho Gre cian archipelago, tho islands of tho Now Testament, and islands Paullnlati mid Jolmnntau in their reminiscence. "Wliat llradohaw's directory Is to travel era in Europe, and what tho railroad guide is to travolors In America, the Book of tho Acts in tho Hiblo is to voy agers In tho Grecian, or as I t-lmll call it, the Gospel archipelago.

Instead of sit ting down as when wo row. we-were won landed on the streets where Paul and Barnabas walked and preached. Yea, when nt Autioch Paul and Bar nabas got into a light as ministers sometimes did, and sometimes do, for they all havo imperfections enough to anchor them to this world till their work is done. I say when because of that bitter controversy Paul and Bar nabas parted, Barnabas camo back here to Cyprus, which was his birth place. Island wonderful for history I It has been tho prize sometimes won by Porsi.i, by Greece, by Egypt, by tho Saracens, by the Crusaders and last of all, not by sword, but by pen, and that tho pen of tho keenest diplomatist of the century, Lord Beaconsfleld, who, under a lease which was as good as a pur chase, set Cyprus among the jewels of Victoria's crown. Wo went out into tho excavations from which Di Ccsnola has enriched air American museums with antiquities md with no better weapon than our toot we stirred up tho ground deep mough to get a tear bottle in which mie mourner shed his tears thousands jf years ago and a lamp which before Christ was born lighted thefeetof some poor pilgrim on his way. That island of Cyprus has enough to set an anti quarian wild. Tho most of its glory is the glory of the past, and the typhoid fevers that sweep Its coast, and the clouds of locusts that often blacken the 3kies (though two hundred thousand dollars were expended by tho British empire In ono year for the extirpation of these noxious insects, yet failing to do the work), and tho frequent change of governmental masters, hinder pros perity. But when the Islands of the sea come to God, Cyprus will como with them, and tho agricultural and commercial opulonco which adorned It In ages past will bo eclipsed by tho agricultural and commercial and religious triumphs of tho ages to come. Why is tho world so stupid that it cannot sou tuat nations are prospered in temporal things In proportion as they are prospered in religious tilings. Godli ness is profitable not only for individ uals but for nations. Questions of tariff, questions of silver bill, questions of re public or monarchy havo uot so much to do with a nation's temporal welfare as questions of religion. Give Cyprus to Christ, give England to Christ, give America to Christ, give the world to Christ, and ho will give them all a pros perity unlimited. Why is Brooklyn ouo of tho queen cities of tho earth? Because It Is tho queen city of churches. jjimuioid mo ana icau mo into any city of tho earth so that I cannot see a street or a warehouse- or a home, and thou lead mo into tho churches, and then remove tho bandage from my eyes. and I will tell you from what I see in sido tho consecrated walls, having seen nothing outsido, what is that city's mer chandise, its literature, its schools, its printing presses, its government, its homes, its arts, its sciences, Its pros jerity or its depression and Ignorance mid pauperism and outlawry. Tho altar of God in the church Is the high water mark of tho world's happl ncss. Tho Christian religion trium phant, all other interests trlumphanL Tho Christian religion low down, all other interests low down. So I thought as on tho evening of that day wo stepped from tho filthy streets of Lar naca, Cyprus, onto tho boat that took us back to tho steamer Minerva, which had already begun to paw tho waves liko a courser impatient to bo gono, and then wo moved on and up among the Islands of this Gospel archipelago. THIS SKA. POPULOUS WITH THK PAST. Night came down on land and sea and thovoyago becamo to mo more and more suggestive and solemn. If you aro pacing It alono, a ship's dock In tho darkness and at sea is a weird placo. and an actlvo Imagination may conjure up almost any shape ho will and it shall walk tho bea or confront him by tho smokestack or meet him under tho captain's brldgo. But here I was alone on ship's deck In tho Gospel archipel ago, and do you wonder that tho sea was populous with tho past and that down tho ratlines Bible momories de scended? Our friends had all gono to their berths. "Captain," I said, "when will wo arrive at tho island of Rhodes?" Look ing out from under his glazed cap, ho responded In sepulchral voice, "About midnight" Though it would bo keep ing unreasonable hours, I concluded to stay on deck, for I must seo Rhodes, ono of tho islands associated with the name of tho greatest missionary the world over saw or over will seo. Paul landed thero and that was enough to mako It famous while tho world stands and famous In heaven whoa the world has becomo a charred wreck. This Island has had a wonderful his tory. With six thousand Knights of St John, It at ouo time stood out against two hundred thousand warriors uuder "Solymaa tho MagnlllccnL" Tho city had three thousand statues, and a statue to Apollo callod Colossus, which has always since been considered ono of the seven wonders of tho world. It was twelve years In building and was seventy cubits high, and had a winding stairs to tho top. It stood fifty-six years and then was prostrated by an earthquake. After lying ia ruins for nine hundred years, It was purchased to be converted to other purposes, and the metal, weighing soven hundred and twenty thousand pounds, was put on nine hundred camels and carried wwuy Wo wero not permitted to go ashore, but the lights all up and down the hills show where the city stands, and ulna boats come put to take freight and rr bring thrco pnssengrn". Vet all the thousands of years of its history are eclipsed by the few hours or days that Paul stopped there. As I stood there on tho deck of tho Minerva, looking out upon the place where the Colossus once stood, I bethought myself of the fact that the world must have a God of some kind. It is to mo on infinite pathos this Colossus not only of Rhodes, but the colossi in many parts of tho earth. This is only the world's blind reaching up and feeling after God. Foundered human nature must have n supernatural arm to help it ashore. All the statues and Iinaeesof I heathendom are attempts to bring celes tial forces down Into human affairs. Blessed be our ears that wo havo heard of an over present God, and that through Jesus Christ he comes Into our hearts and our homes, and with more than fatherly and motherly Interest and affection he Is with us in all our struggles and bereavements and vicissitudes. Rhodes needs something higher than tho Colossus, and the day will come when tho Christ, whom Paul was serving when ho sailed into this harbor of Rhodes, shall take possession of that island. liiroitTA-vcK ok islands. As wo movo on up through this archipelago I am reminded of what an Important part the islands have taken in the history of the world. They arc necessary tothc balancingof tho planet. Tho two hemispheres must have them. As you put down upon a scale the heavy pound weights, and then the small ounces, and no one thinks of de spising the small weights, so the conti nents are the pounds and the islands are tho ounces. A continent is only a larger island, and an island only a smaller continent. Something of what part the islands have taken in the world's history you will see when I re mind ydrt that the island of Salamis produced Solon, and that the Island of Chios prodtifed Homer, and the island of Samos produced Pythagoras, and tho island of Coos produced Hippoc rates. ijui mere is one isianu xiuu i longea to seo more than any other. 1 can af- ford to miss the princes among the islands, but I must seo the king of the archipelago. The one I longed to see i is not so many miles In circumference as uyprus or vreio or -aros or raxos or Hcio or Jlitylene, but I bad rather in this sail through the Grecian arclii pclago see that than all the others, for more of the glories of heaven landed thero than on nil the Islands and conti nents since the world stood. As we como toward it I feel my pulses quicken. "I, John, was in tho island that is called Patmos." It Is a piles of rooks twenty-eight miles in circumference. A few cypresses and inferior olives pump a living out of the earth, and ono palm tree spreads its foliage. But tho barrenness and gloom and loneliness of the island made It a prison for tho banished evangelist. Domitian could not stand his ministry, and ono day, under armed guard, that minister of the Gospel stepped from a tossing boat to these dismal rocks and walked up to tho dismal caveru which was to be his home, and tho placo whero should pass beforo him all tho couflicts of coming timo and all tho raptures of a coming eternity. Is it not remarkablo that nearly all the great revelations of musio and po etry and religion have been made to men in banishmnnf Homer and Mil ton banished into blindness; Beethoven banished into deafness: Dante writing his "Divlna Commedia" during the nineteen years of banishment from his native land; Victor Hugo writing his "Les Miserables" exiled from home and country on tho island of Guernsey, and tho brightest visions of tho future have beeu given to tlioso who by sickness or sorrow wero exiled from tho outer world into rooms of suffering. Only those who havo been imprisoned by very hard surroundings havo had great rovolatlons mado to them. So Patmos, wild, chill and bleak and terrible, was the best island in all tho archipelago, the best placo in all tho earth for divlno revelations. Be fore a panorama can bo successfully seen, the room In which you sit must be darkened, and hi tho presence of John was to pass such a panorama as no man over beforo saw or over will seo in this world, and henco the gloom of his surroundings was a help rather than a hindrance. All the surroundings of tho placo af fected St. John's Imagery when he speaks of heaven. St. John, hungry from enforced abstinence, or having no food except that at which his appetite revolted, thinks of heaven; and as the faniUhed man Is apt to dream of boun tiful tables covered with luxuries, so St, Johu says of tho Inhabitants of heaven, Ulioy shall hunger no more." Scarcity of fresh water on Patmos and tho hot tonguo of St. John's thirst leads him to admire heaven as ho says, "They shall thirst no moro." St. John hears tho wave of tho tea wildly dashing against tho rooks, and each wave has a voice, and all tho waves together mako a chorus, and they remind hhn of tho multitudinous anthems of heaven, and ho says, "They are like th voice of many waters," Ouo day, as ho looked off upon tho soa, the waters wero very smooth, as it is today while wo Kill them lu tho Min erva, and they wero like glass, and tho sunlight seemed to sot thum on tire, and there was a mingling of white light and lutenso tlame, and as St John looked out from his cavern home upon that brilliant tea, he thought of tlie splendors of heaven and describes them "As a sea of glas mingled with tire."

MARTIN, State Street. loaded with Domitlsn's anathemas, St John was the most fortunate man on earth because of tho panorama that passed before the mouth of that cavern. LKT US VTKW THK PANORAMA. Turn down all tho lights that wo may better seo it The panorama passes, and lol tho conquering Christ, robed, girdled, armed, the flash of golden candlesticks and seven stars In I his right hand, candlesticks and stars meaning light held up and light scat tered. And there passes a throne and Christ on It. and the seals broken, and tho woes sounded, and a dragon slain, and seven last plagues swoop, and seven vials aro poured out, and the vision vanishes. And wo halt a mo ment to rest from the exciting spec tacle. Again tho panorama moves on be fore tho caieni of Patmos. and John tho exile sees a great city representing all abominations Babylon towered, palaced, templed, fountaincd, foliaged, sculptured, hanging gardens, suddenly going crash I crash I and the pipers cease to pipe, and tho trumpets cease to trumpet, and the dust and the smoke and tho horror fill the canvas, while from above nnd beneath are voices an nouncing. "Babylon is fallen, is fallen 1" And wo h-lf again to rest from tho spertae'e. Again the, panorama passes before the cavern of Patmo, and John the exilo sees a mounted Christ on a snow white charger I siding forth the cavalry of heaven, til long line of while charg ers galloping through the scene, tho clattering of hoofs, the clinking of bridle bits md the ila.sh of spears, all the earth conquered and all heaven in Doxoiogy. And we halt again to rest from tlie spectacle. Again tho pano rama passes before the cavern of Pat mos, and John the exile sees great thrones lifted, thrones of martyrs, thronesof n putties, thrones of prophets, thrones of patriarchs, end a tiirone higher than all on which Jesus sits, and ponderous books are opened, their leaves turned over, revealing the names of all that havo over lived. the MOil nn,i t!la hn(1. tll ,..,, mKl the i,umbe, the inightv and the wcaki mu1 nt the turn of eve'ry Ieaf the unjvcree is rapture or fright, and the gea einptios its sarcophagus of all the dpa(j of tl,0 tunken shipping, and the earth gives way, and the heavens van- , ish. Again we rest a moment from the I spectacle. The panorama moves on be fore tho cavern of Patmos, and John i the exile beholds a city of gold, and a river more beautiful than the Rhine or . the Hudson rolls through it, and fruit , trees bend their burdens on eiflier bank, and all is surrounded by walls in which the upholstery of autumnal forests, and the sutirNes and sunsets of all the ages, and the glory of burning worlds Beem to be commingled. j And tho inhabitants never breathe a sigh, or utter a groan, or discuss a dif- fcrence, or frown a dislike, or weep a tear. Tho fashion they wear is pure white, and their foreheads are encir cled by garlands, and they who were sick aro well, and they who were old are young, and they who were bereft , are reunited. And as the last figure of that panorama rolled out of sight, I think that John must have fallen back into his cavern, nerveless nnd exhaust- 1 ed. Too much was it for naked eye to . look at. Too much was it for human I strength to experience. opicx run GATES. J My friends, I would not wonder if you should have a very similar i vision after awhile. You will be through this world, its cares and fa tigues and struggles, and if you havo served tlie Lord and have done tlie best you could, 1 should nut wonder if your dying bed wero a Patmos. It often has been so. I was reading of a dying boy who, whilo the family stood round sorrowfully expecting each breath would bo the last, cried: "Open the gates! Open the gates! Happy! Hap py! Happy!" John Owen hi his last hour said to his attendant, "Oh, Brother Payne, tho long wishpd for day is como at last!" Rutherford, in tho closing mo ment of his life, cried eut: "I shall shine, I shall seo him as lie is, and all the fair company with him, and shall havo my largo share. I have gotten tho victory. Christ is holding forth his arms to embrace me. Now I feell Now 1 enjoy! Now I rejoice I I feed on manna. I have angels' food. My eyes will see my Redeemer. Glory, glory dwelleth in Iuimanuel's land." Yes, ten thousand times in the his tory of the world has the dying bed been made a Patmos. You see the timo will come when you will, oh, child of God, bo exiled to your last sickness as much ns John was exiled to Patmos. You will go into your room not to como out again, for God is going to do something better and gnuidor and hap pier lor you than ho lias ever yet done. Thero will bo such visions let down to your pillow as God gives no man if he Is evor to return to this tamo world. Tho apparent feeling of uneasiness and restlessness nt the timo of tho Chris tian's departure, tho physicians say, is caused by no real distress. It is an uneonsolous and involuntary movement, and I think In many cases It Is the vision of heavenly gladness too great for mortal endurance. It is only hoaven breaking in on tho dopartlng spirit You seo your work will be done and tho time for your departure will bo at hand, and there will be wings over you and wings under you and songs let loose on tho air, and your old father and mother gone for years will descend into tho room, and your little children whom you put away for tho last sleep years ago will bo at your side and their kiss will be on your foreheads, and you will see gardens in full bloom, and th OLD Says now is (ho time to buy UMBRELLAS, MACINTOSHES, RUB-.

In many a Christian departure that you have lir'own and I have known there was in tho phraseology of- tlie de parting ones something that indicated the reannearance of thoso long de- censed. It is no delirium, no delusion, but a suprvna! fact. Your glorified i ioed ones will he.ir that you are about to come, and they will say in heaven: "May I go down to show that soul tho way up? May I ba the celestial escort? May I wait for that soul at the edge of the pillow?" And the Lord will say: "Yes. You may lly down on that mis sion." And I think all your glorilied kindred will como down, and they will bo in the room, and although those in health standing around you may hear no voico and see no arrival from the heavenly world, you will see and hear. And tlie moment the ileshly bond of the soul shall break, the cry will be: "Follow me! Up this way I By this gilded cloud, past these stars, straight for home, straight for glory, straight for God!" As on that day in the Gre cian archipelago Patmos began to fade out of sight, I walked to the stern of the ship that 1 might keep my eye on the enchantment as long as I could, and the voice that sounded out of heaven to John the exile in tho cavern on Pat mos seemed sounding in the waters that dashed against tlie side of our ship, "Behold the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people and God himself shall bo with them and be their God, and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain, for the former things are passed away."
