Talmago I'renches n Kiuiter Sermon from tlio Text, "Surely the Bitterness of Death Is Paul" All Our Troubles End with Mfo. Brooklyn, April 17- Being Easter morning tlio Brooklyn Tabernacle con fTojfrtion bad been invited to bring (lowers tlie night before, and a bank of Ihem was on tho front of the pulpit and wreaths of them over tho pulpit. Tin' word "Resurrection" was spelled ont in letters of white lilies. Especial music was added to tho great congregational Billing. Tost, I Samuel xv. 82, "Surely the bitterness of death is past." So cried Agag, aud tho only objection I kavo to this toxt is that a bad man ut tered it. Nevertheless, it it truo, and in a higher and better seuso than that in which it was originally uttered. Years ago a legend somothing liko this was told me: In a hut lived n very poor Woman by the name of Misery. In front of her door was a pear tree, which was her Only reeourco for a living. Christ tho Lord, in poor garb was walking through tho earth and no ono would en tortain him. In vain ho knocked at tho door of palaces and of humble dwell ings. Cold and hungry and insufficient ly clad, aa ho was, nono received him. But coming ono day to tho hut of this woman, whoso name was Misery, she received him and offorcd him a fow crusts and asked him to warm himself at the handful of coals, and sho sat up .;i light that tho wayfarer mighthavoa pillow 10 rest on. In tho morning this divino being asked Ivor nd ho dopartod what Bho would have hitn do in tho way of roward, and told her that ho owned tho unlvorso ami Would give her what sho asked. All sho asked was that her pear treo might be protected, and that tlip boyB who stole hor fruit, ouco climbing tho treo, might not be ablo to get down without hor con ecnt. So it was granted, and all who climbod tho treo wero compelled to stay there. After a whilo Death came along and told tho poor woman sho must go with him. But sho did not want to go, for, however poor one's lot Is, no ono wants to go with Death. Then sho said to Death, "I will go with you if you will first climb up into my pear treo aud bring mo down a fow pears boforo 1 start." This ho consented to do, but having climbed into tho treo ho could not again como down. Then tho troubles of tho world began, for Death did not come. Tho physicians had no patients, tho undertakers no bus iness, lawyers no wills to mako, tho poo plo who waited for inheritances could not got them, tho old mon staid in all tho professions and occupations, so that thoro was no room for tho young who were coming on, and tho earth got over crowded, and from all tho earth tho cry went up: "Oh, for DeathI Whore is Death?" Then tho 'people camo to tho poor woman and begged hor to let Doath descend from tho treo. In sympathy for tho world sho cousontod to lot Death como down on ono condition, and that was that ho should nover molost or tako hor away, and on that condition Death was allowed to como down, and ho kept his word and novor romovod hor, and for that reason wo always havo Misery with us. the MiaimrsT mkiioy. In that allegory somo ono has sot forth tho truth that I mean to prosent on this Easter morning, which celebrates tlio resurrection of Christ and our coming resurrection that ono of tho grandest and mightiest mercies of tho earth ia our divino jiortnisston to quit it. Sixty four persons ovcry minuto step off this planet. Thirty million pcoplo ovory year board this planet. As a steamor must mload beforo it takes anothor cargo, aud as tho passengers of a rail train must leavo it in ordor to havo an other company of paBSongorB enter it, bo with tliis world. "What would happen to an ocean steamer if a man, taking a stateroom, should stay in it forever? What would happen to a rail train if ono who pur chases a ticket should always occupy tho seat assigned him? And what would liappeu to this world if all who came into It nover departed from it? Tho grave ia as much a bonodiotion as tho oradlo. What sunk that ship in tho Black sea a fow days ago? Too many passengers. What waa tlio matter with lliat steamer on tho Thames which, a fow yoarB ago, went down with 000 llvoa? Too many passengers. Now, this world is only a ship, which was launched somo six thousand years ago. It is sail ing at tlio rato of many thousand miles an hour. It is froightod with mountains and cities, and has in its staterooms aud steerage about sixteen hundred million paasongora. So many are coming aboard, it is necessary that a good many disem bark, Suppobo that all tho jwoplo that have lived since- tho days of Adam aud Evo wore "still allvo what , a cluttered up place this world would be 119 olbow room, no placo to walk, no privacy, nothing to eat or wear, or if anything wero left tho human raco would, liko a nidpwreoked crow, havo to bo put on wnall rations, each of us Jiaviug perhaps only a biscuit a day. And what chanco would thoro bo for tho rising genera tions? Tho mon aud women who titurted when tlio world started would keep tho modem pcoplo back and down, saying: "We uro Bix thousand yeara old. Bow down. History Is nothing, for wo nrt older than history," What n meroy for ttw human raco was death. Within a few yeara yon can got from this world ail thoro ia in it.

Wo talk about tho shortness of lifo, but if we exorcised good sense wo would realize that lifo is quite long enough. If wo are tho children of G 1, wo are at a banquot, and his world is only tho first courso of the food, aud wo ought to bo glad that there era other and better and richer court es of food to bo handed on. Wo arc hero In ono room of our father's house, but there aro rooms up stairs. They aro bet tor pictured, better upholstered, better furnished. Why do wo want to stay In tlio anteroom forovor, when thero are palciial apartments waiting for our oc cupancy? What a mercy that thero is a limitation to earthly environments. OUR POOR, WKATC BODIES. Death also makes room for improved physical machinory. Our bodies havo wondrous powors, but they aro very lim ited. Thero aro beasts that can 0.1 It in us, outlift us, outcarry us. Tlio birds have both tlio earth and air for travel, yet wo must stick to tho ono. In this world, which tho human raco tak&i for Its own, thero aro creatures of God that can far surpas3us in somo things. Poath removes this slower and less adroit ma chinery and makes room for somothing better. Theso eyes that can seo half a milo will bo removed for thoso that can beo from world to world. Theso ears, v. hich can hear a sound a few feet off, witl be romoved for ears that can hear from zono to zono. Theso feet will bo rem jved for powers of locomotion swiftor than tho reindeer's hoof or eagle's plunio or lightning's Hash. Then wo havo only live souses and to theso wo aro shut up. Why only flvo senses? Why not fifty, why not ono hundred, why not a thou sand? Wo can havo and wo will have them, but not until tills present physical maohlnory is put out of tho way. Do not think that this body is tho best that God can do for us. God did not half try when he contrived your bodily mechanism. Mind yon, I boliovo with all anatomists and all physiologists and with all scientists and with tho psalmist that "wo aro fearfully and wonderfully tnado." But I believe and I know that God can and will got us bettor physical equipment. Is it poasiblo for man to make improvement in almost anything and God not bo ablo to mako impiovo- monts iu mans physical machmory? Shall canal boat givo way to limited ex press train? Shall slow letter glvo placo to telegraphy, that places San Francisco and Now York within a minuto of com munication? Shall tho telophono tako tho sound of a volco sixty miles and in stantly bring back another volco, and God, who mado tho man who docs these things, not bo ablo to improvo tho man himself with infinito velocities and in finite mnltipllcation? Beneficent Death comes in and makes tho necessary re moval to mako way for theso supernat ural improvements. So also our slow process of getting in formation must havo a substitute. Through prolonged study wo learned tho alphabet, and then wo learned to spell, and thon wo learned to read. Then the book ia put boforo us, and tho oyo trav els from word to word and from pago to pago, and wo tako wholo days to road the book, and if from that book of four or live Hundred pages wo navo gameu ono or two profitablo ideas wo foci we havo dono well. Thoro must bo (.owe swifter way and moro satisfactory way of taking in God's unl. erso of thoughts and facts and emotions and information. But this cannot bo dono with your main in its prosont state. Many a brain gives way under tho present facility. Tide whitish mass in tho upper cavity of tho skull and at tho oxtrouiity of tho norv ous Bystem this center of perception aud sonsation cannot endnro moro than it now endures. Bnt God can mako a better brain, and ho Bonds Death to romovo this inferior brain that ho may put in a superior brain. "Well," yon say, "does not that destroy tho idea of n resurrection of tho present body?" Oh, no. It will bo tho old factory with now machinery-now driving wheel, new bands, now lovors and now powers. Don't you seo? So 1 aupposo tho dullest human brain aftor tlio resurrectlonary process will havo moro knowledge, moro acutoness, moro brilliancy, moro breadth of swing than any Sir William Hamilton or Ilerschel or Isaac Newton or Faraday or Ag.isslz over had in the mortal state, or all their iutollootual powers combined. lii.KKsr.n UK DEATH. You aeo God has only just begun to build you. Tho palaco of your nature has only tho foundation laid, and part of tho lower story, and only part of ono window, but tho Great Architect has mado his draft of what you will bo when tho Alhambra ia completed. .Tohn was right when ho said, "It doth not yet ap Iioar what wo shall bo." Blessed bo death! for it removes all tho hindrances. And who has not all his lifo run against hindrances? Wo cannot go far up nor far down. If wo go far up wo get dizzy, and if wo go far down wo getauffocated. If mon would go high up they asoend tho Mattorhoru or Mont Blano or Hima laya, but what disasters havo boon re ported as they camo tumbling down. Or if thoy weut down too far, hark to tho explosion of tho firedamps and boo tlio disfigured bodies of tho ioor minora at tho bottom of tho coal shaft. Thon thero aro tho cllmatologlcal hin drances. "Wo run against unpropltlous weather of all sorts. Wtntor blizzard and summer bcorch, aud each season seems to hatch a broood of iU own dis orders. Tlio summer spreads ltswluga and hatches out fevers and sunstrokos, and spring aud autumn spread their wings and hatch out malarias, and win tor spreads its wings and hatches out pneumonias and Russian grippes, and tho clluiato of this world is a hindrance which every man and woman and child has felt. Death ia to tho good transfer ouco to euporlor weather weather never of zoac 1, yt a it clears tho pnt'i ton Beinl Dinniprosenco. How often wo want to bo in different places at tho ramo timo. How porp-o0 wo get being compelled to chooso be tween invitations, between weddings, botwecn friendly groups, between three or four places wo would liko to bo in tho same morning, or tho Bamo noon, or tho samo evening. Whilo death may not open opportunity to bo in many places at tho samo timo, eo easy and o quick and bo inctantancous will bo tho Iransferenco tliat it will amount to tbout tho samo thing. Quicker than I tan speak this sentence you will bo among your glorified kindred, atnong tho martyrs, among tho apostles, in the gato, on tho battlements, at tho temple, and now from world to world as soon as a robin hops from ono treo branch to another tree branch. Distance no hin drance. Immensity easily compassed. Scmiomnlpresencel "But," says some ono, "1 cannot seo how God ia going to reconstruct my body in tho resurrec tion." Oh, that will bo very easy as compared with what ho has already dono with your Ixrly four or six or ten times. All scientists tell us that tho human body changes entirely ouco in seven years, so that if you aro twenty-eight years of ago you h..vo now your fourth body. If you aro forty-two years of ago you have had bIx bodies. If you aro seventy years of aged you havo had ten bodies. Do you not, my unbelieving friend, think if God could build for you four or flvo or ten bodies ho could really build for you ono moro to bo called tho resurection body? Ayol to mako that resurection body will not requiro half as much ingenuity and power as those other bodies you have had. Is it not easier for a sculptor to mako a statuo out of Bilont clay than it would be to makp a statuo out of somo mate rial that is alive and moving, and run ning hither and thither? Will it not bo easier for God to make tho resurrection body out of the silent dust of the crum bled body than it was to mako your body over five or six or eight times whilo it was in motion walking, climbing, fall ing or rising? God has already on your four or five bodies bestowed ten times moro oinnipotenco than he will put upon tho resurrection body. Yea, wo have the foundation of the resurrection body in us now. Surgeons and physiologists say thero aro parts of tho human body tho uses of which they caunot understand. They aro scaiching what theso parts wero mado for, but havo not found out. I can tell them. Thoy aro tho prelim inaries of tho resurrection body. God does not mako anything for nothing. Tho uses of thoso now surplus parts of tho body will bo demonstr tied when tho glorified form ia constructed. DEATH 18 KO nOBQOBLIN. Now, if Death clears tho way for all this, why paint him n3 a hobgoblin? Why call him tho King of Terrors? Why think of him as a great spook? Why sketch him with skeleton and arrows, and standing on a bank of dark waters? Why havo children bo frightened at his name that theydaro not go to bed alone, and old men havo their teeth chatter lest somo shortness of breath hand them over to tho monster? All tho ages havo been busy in maligning Death, hurling repnl sivo motaphors at Death, slandering Death. Oh, for tho sweet breath of Easter to como down on tho earth. Bight after tho vernal equinox, and when tho flowers aro beginning to bloom, well may all nations with song and congratulation and garlands cele brate tho resurrection of Christ nnd our own resurrection whon tho timo is gom by, nnd tho trumpota pour through the flying clouds tho harmonies that shall wako tho dead. By tho empty niche of Joseph's mausoleum, by tho rocks that parted to let tho Lord como through, lot our ideas of changing worlds bo forever revolutionized. If what I havo been saying is true how differently wo ought to think uf our friends departed. Tlio lxdy they havo put off li only as when ontering a hall lighted nnd resounding with musi cal bands, you leavo your hat and cloak in tho cloakioom. What would a ban qnoter do if ho had to carry those in cumbrances of apparol with him into tho brilliant recoption? What would your doparted do with their bodies if thoy had to bo incumbered with them in tho King's drawing room? Gono into tho light! Gone into tho music! Gono Into tlio festivity! Gone among kings and queens and couqucrois! Gono to moot Elijah nnd hear him tell of tho chariot of flro drawn by horses of firo and tho Bonsntiou of mounting the sapphire steeps!

Wo, tho ship wrecked, and on a raft in tho hurricane, looking np at them sailing on over calm seas, undor skies that nover frowned with tempests, wo hoppled with chains; they lifted by wings. "Suroly tho bit terness of dtath is past." Further, if what I havo been saying is true, we should trust tho Loid and bo thrilled with tho fact that our own day of escape cometh. If our lived wero go ing to end when our heart ceased to pul sate and our lungs to breathe, I would want to tako ten million years of lifo hero for tho first installment. But, my Christian friends, wo cannot afford al ways to stay down in tho cellar of our Father's houso. Wo cannot nlways bo postponing tho best things. Wo cannot nlways bo tuning our violins for tho celestial orchestra. Wo must get our wings out. Wo must mount. Wo can not afford always to stand out hero in tho vestibido of tho houso of many man sions, while the windows aro illuminated with tho levee angelic, nnd wo can hear tho laughter of thoso forever free, and tho ground quakes with the bounding feet of thoso who havo entered upon ter nal play. OPEN THE OATKS OF HEAVEN. Ushers of heaven! Open tho gates! Swing them clear back on their pearly hinges! Let the celestial lmric rain on us in its cadences! Let the hanginggar dens of the king breathe on ua their aro matics ! Let our redeemed ones just look out and give us ono glanco of their glo rified faces! Yea, there they aro now! I Eeo them. But I cannot stand tho vision. Close tho gato, or our oyes will be quonched with tho overpowering brightness. Hold back tho song, or our ears will nover again caro for earthly anthem. Withdraw the perfumo, or we shall swoon in tho fragrance that human nostril was never made to breathe. All theso thoughts aro suggested as we stand this Easter morn amid the broken rocks of tho Savionr's tomb. Indeed, 1 know that tomb has not been rebuilt, for I stood in December of 1889 amid tho ruins of that tho most famous sepul cher of all time. Thero aro thousands of tombs in our Greenwood and Laurel nill and Mount Auburn with more pol ished stono and moro elaborate masonry and moro foliaged surroundings, but as I went down tho steps of the supposed tomb of Christ on my return from Mount Calvary I said to myself: "This ia tho tomb of all tombs. Around this stand moro stupendous incidents than abound any gravo of all tho woiM sinco death entered It." THE SEPULCHEll OP CHRIST. 1 could not breathe easily for over mastering emotion as I walked down tho four crumbling steps till wo camo abreast of tho nicho in which I think Christ was buried. I mcj'ured tho sepulcher and fouud it fourteen and 11 half feot long, eight feet high, nine feet wide. It is a family tomb and seema to havo been built to hold flvo bodies. But I rejoico to say that tho tombvras empty and tho door of the rock was gone aud tho sunlight streamed in. Tlio day that Christ roso and camo forth tho sc pulchor was demolished lore ver and intiowel of earthly masonry can over lcbuild it.
