BROOKLYN. June 18.—Rev. Dr, Tal-
mage, in Selecting a .theme for to -day's
sermon in- the Brooklyn Tabernacle,
chose one peculiarly suitable to the sea-
son of fruits, the title being "Grapes
from Canaan," and the text, Numbers
13 : 23, "And they came unto the
brook of Eschol, and cut down from
thence a branch with one cluster of
grapes, and they bear it between two
upon a staff." .
-.The long trudge of the Israelites across
the wilderness was almost ended. They
had come to the borders of the promised
land. Of the six hundred thousand adults
who started • from Egypt for Canaan,
how many do you suppose got there?
Five hundred thousand ? Oh, no.
Not two hundred thousand, not . one
hundred thousand, nor fifty, nor
twenty, nor ten ; but two men. Oh, it
was a ruinous march that God's people
made ; but -their children were living
and they were on the march, and now
they had come up to the borders of the
promised land, they were very curious
to know what kind of a place it was,
and whether it wonld be safe to go over.
So a scouting party is sent out to recon-
noitre, and they -examine the land; and
they come back bringing • specimens.
of its growths. Just as you came
back from California, bringing to
your family a basket of pears, or pfu MR,
or apples, to show whatmonstrous fruit
they have there, so this scouting party
out off the biggest bunch of grapes they
could find: It was so large that one
man could not carry it, they thrust a
pole through the cluster, and there was
one man at either end of the pole, and so
the bunch of grapes was transported. I
was, some time ago, in a luxuriant vine-
yard. • The vine -dresser had done his
work. The vine had clambered up and
spread its wealth all over the arbor. The
sun and shower lied mixed a cup which
the vine drank, until with flushed cheek
it lay slumbering in the light,cluster
against the cheek of cluster. The rinds
of the grapes seemed altnest bursting
with the juice in the wassin lips of the
mg/fanned day, and it seemed as if all you
had to do was to lift a chalice towards
the clusterand its life Wood would begin
to drip away. But, in friends in these
rigorous climes. 'e(know nothing about
large grapes. Stistbo states that in Bible
tithes and: in Bible lands there were
grape-vine:s so large that it took two men
with outstretched arme to reach arounu
therta anchhe says there were clusters
two 'cubits, in length. or twihe the
length fromthe elbow to the tips of the
long finger. And Aeht-tiCUS, dwelling_ in
those- lands, -tells us that during the time
he was smitten with fever one grape
would slake his thirst for the whole day.
No wonder, then, in those Bible times
two men thought it worth their while to
put their strength together to corry
down one cluster of grapes from the pro-
mised land.
But this morning I bring you a larger
cluster from the heavenly Eschol—a
cluster of hopes, a cluster of prospects, a
cluster of Christian consolations; and I
am expecting that one taste of it will
rouse up your appetite for. the heavenly
Canaan. airing the past winter .soine
of this congregation have. gone away
never to, return, The -aged have put
clown their staff and taen up the scep-
tre. Men in'mid life came home from
Office or shop, and did not go back again,
and never will go back again. And the
dear children, some of them have been
gathered in Christ's arms. He found
this world too rough a place for them,
arid so He has gathered them in. And
oh, how Many wounded souls there are
-swounds for which this world offers no
Medicament, and unless from the Gos-
pel of our Lord Jesus Christ there shall
come a consolation, there will be no con-
- sohition at all. Oh, that the God of all
comfort would help me when I preach,
and that the God .of all comfort would
help you while you hear.
First. I console you with the divinely
satictioned idea that your departed
friends are as much yours now as they
ever were. I know-vou sometimes get
the idea in your mini, when you havp
th4 kind of trouble, that your friends
roreicut off from you, and they are no
loner yours; but the desire to have all
our loved ones inthe same lot in the
cemetery is a natural desire, a nniversal
deaire, and, therefore, a God -implanted
desire and is mightily suggestive of the
fact tliat death has ho power to break up
the Ifamily relations. If our loved ones
go away from our possession, why put a
fence around our list in the ceMetery?
Why the gathering of four or five names
on one family monument? Why ttie
planting of one cypress -vine so that it
covers all the cluster of graves? \Vhv
put the husband beside the wife, and the
children at their feet? Why the bolt on
the gate of our lot,;and tfie charge to
the keepers of the ground to see that
the grass is cut, and the vine attended
to, and the flowers planted? Why not
ptit our departed friends iu one commou
field or grave? Oh, it is bc ca use they are
ours. That child, 0 stricken mother! is
as much yours this Morning as in the
solemn hour when God put it against
your heart. and said, as of old : 'Take
this child a_aknurse it for Me, and I will
give thee thy wages." It is no mere
whim. It is a divinely -planted principle
in the soul, aud God certainly would
not plant a lie, and He would not culti-
vate a lie! Abraham _Would not allow
Sarah to be buriedi in a stranger's
grounds, although some very beautiful
ground was offered hitn a free gift; but
he pays four hundred Shekels for Mach-
pelah, the cave, ancl the trees over-
shadowing it. The grave has been well
kept, and to -day the Christian traveler
stands in thoughtful and admiring
mood, gazing upon Machpelah, where
Abraham and Sarah are taking their
long sleep of four thousand years.
Your father may be slumbering untiex
the tinkling of the bell of the Scotch
kirk. • Your , brother may have gone
down in the Ship that founded of Cape
Hatteras. Your littlechild may be
sleeping on the verge Of the flowering
western prairies; yet God will gather
them all up, however :kvidely the dust
may be scattered. Nevertheless, it is plea
savt to think that we will be buried. to-
gether. When my father died and we
took him out and put him, down in the
graveyard of Somerville, it did not seem
so sad to leave him there, because right
beside him was my dear,' good, old, beau-
tiful, Christian mother, and it seemed as
if she said; was tiredeand I came to
bed a little early. I am glad you have
come; it eeeins as of Old." Oh, it is a
consolation to feel that When men come.

tion.. The father looking around on the
children, and saying: "Come, come, my
darlings, this is the morning of the re-
surrection." Mrs. Sigourney wrote
beautifully with the tears and blood of
her own broken heart: •
There was a shaded chamber,
A silent, watching band,
On a low couch a suffering child
Ortuiping her mother's hand.
But mid the gasp and struggle,
• With shuddering lips -she cried,
"Mother, oh, dearest Mother,
Bury me by your side."
Only one wish she uttered,
As life was .ebbing fast,
"Sleep by my side, dear mottles',
And rise with me atlast,." ;
Oh, yes, we want to be bnried to-
gether. Sweet antetype of . everting
residence in each other's companionship.
When the wrecker went down into the
cabin of the lost steamer, he 'found the
mother and child in each other's arms.
It was sad, but it was beautiful, and it
was appropriate. 'Together' they went
down. Together they will -rise. One on
earth. One in heaven. Is there not
something cheering in all this thought,
and something to impress upon us the
idea that the departed are ours yet—ours
forever?
I console you still further with the
idea of a resurrection. I know there are
a great many .pedple who do not accept
this because they cannet understand it;
but, my friends, there are two sto-at pas-
sages—I could bring a hundred, but two
swarthy passages are enough and one
David will strike down the largest Go-
liath. "Marvel not at this, for the hour
is coming when all who are in thier
graved 'shall come forth." The other
swarthy passage is this: "The Lord shall
descend from heaven with a shout, and
the Voice of the archangel, and the trump
of God, and the dead in Christ shall rise
first." Oh, there will be such a thing as
a resurrection.
You ask me a great many questions
cannot answer about this resurrection:
You say, for instance: "If a man's body
is constantly changing, and every
seventh year he has anentirely new
body, and he lives on to seventy year of
age, and so has had ten different bodies,
and at the hour of his death there is not
a particle of flesh on him that was there
in the days of his childhood—in the re-
surrection, which of the ten bodieswill
come up, or will they all rise?" You
say: "Suppose a man dies and his body
is scattered in the dust, and oift of tha.t
l dust vegetables grow, and men eat the
vegetables, and cannibals slay these
inen and eat them, and' cannibals fight
with cannibals,. until at last there shall
be a hundred men who shall have with-
in them some particles that started from
the dead body first named, coming up
through the - vegetable, through the
first man who ate it, and through the
cannibals who afterwards ate him;
and there be more than a hundred
men who have rights in the particles
of that body—in -the resurrection.
how can they be assorted When these
particles belong to them all? You say ;
"There is a missionary buried -in-Green-
wood, and when he was hi China he had
his arm amputated—in the resurrection,
will that fragment of the body fly sixteen
thousand miles to join the rest_ of the
body?" You say: "Will it not be a
very difficult, thing for a spirit coming
back- in that day to find the myriad_ par.:
ticles of its own body, when they may
have been scattered by the winds or over-
laid by whole gene ations of the dead—
looking for the myriad particles of its own
body; viltile there are a thousand million
other spirits doing the same thing, and
all the assortment to be made within one
day ?" You say. "If a hundred and
fifty men go into a place of evening enter-
tainment. and leave their hats and over-
coats in the hall, when they come back it
is ahhost irnpossib.e for them to get the
right, ones, or to get them without a:
great deal of perplexity. And yet you
tell me that myriads of spirits in the
last day will come and find myriads of
bodies." Have you any more questions
to ask? Any more difficulties to suggest?
Any more mysteries? Bring them on
Against a whole regiment of scepticism,
I will match- these two champions :
"Marvel not at this, for the hour is com-
ingwhen all who are in their graves
shall come forth." 'The Lord shall de-
scend from Heaven with a shout, and
the voice of the archangel, and the
trumpet of God. and the dead in Christ
shall rise first." You see I stick to
these two passages. Who art thou, oh
fool, that thou repliest against God ?
Hath He commanded, and shall He not
clo ? Halls He commandad, and shall
He not bring it to pass? Have you not
confidence .in His omnipotence? If He
could, in the.first place, build my body,
after it is torn down can He not build it
again?
. - "Oh," von say, "I would believe that
if you would explain it. I am not dis-
posed to be skeptical, but explain -how
it can be done.' My brother, yotbe-
lieve a great many things you cannot
explain. You believe your mind acts on
your body.- Explain the process. This
seed planted comes - up a blue fio wer.
Another seed planted conies up a yellow
flower. Another seed planted comes up

your finger? Tell inc why some cows
have horns, and other cows have
no horns. Why, when two ob-
stacles strike each other in the
air, do you hear the percussion
What is the subtile energy that
dissolves a solid in a crucible? What
makes the notches on , an oak -leaf
different from any other kind of
leaf? What makes the orange -
blossom different from that of
the rose? How can the almighti-
ness which rides on the circle of the
heaven, -find room to turn ins chariot ou
a heliotrope? Explain these. Can MI
not do it? Then I will not explein the
resurrection. You explain one -hal f i 111e
common mysteries of everyday life. min
I will explain the mysteries of
rection. You cannot answer lee serf
plain questions in 'envied to sn

cannot explain God, and the judgment
and the resurrection. I simply accept
them as facts. tremendous and. infinitet
' Before the resurrection- t-ikes place,
everything will be silent. The mauso-
leums and the labyrinths silent. The
graveyards silent, the cemetery silent,
save from the clashing of hoofs and the

cession comes in. No breath of air dis-

the long -barred sepulchre. All the na-
tions of the dead motionless in their
winding -sheets. UP the side of the
hills, down through the trough of the
Valleys, far out in the cavern, across
the fields, deep down into the coral pala-
ces of the ocean depths where leviathan
sports with his' fellows—everywhere,
latar above layer, height above height,
depth below depth—dead ! dead ! dead 1
But in the twinkling of an eye,
as quick as that, as the archangel's
trumpet comes pealing, rolline, rever-
berating, crashing across cont:nents and
seas, toe earth will give one fearful
shudder and the door of the familv
vault, without being unlocked, will
burst open; and all the graves of the
dead will begin to throb and heave like
the waves of the sea; and the tnausoleum
of princes will fall into the .dust; and
Oslend amd Sebastopol, and'Austerlitz
and Gettysburg, stalk forth in the lurid
air; end the srup-wracked rise from the
deep, their wet locks looming above the
-billow; and all the land and all the sea
become one., Moving nia.s of life—all
generations, ail ages, with upturned
countenances — some kindled with
raptme and others blarched ‘vith de-
spair, but gazing in oee direction. upou
roneoolb,jrt.. and that the throne of resur
et.ti.
• On that day you will get back your
Christian dead. There is where the com-
fort comes in. Tney will come up with
the same hand, tie? sante foot, aud the
same entire body ; but with a perfect
hand, and a perfect foot, and a. perfect
body ; corruption having become ineor-
ruption, mortality having becoine im-
mortality. And ele the re-unicn ; oh,
the embrace after So long an absence.
Comfort, one anotheir with these words._
