Dr. Taitemsge Utilizes the Overwhelming- ly Dramatic Incident to Show that the Cord of Attachment - Between the Liv- ing iving and the, Dead is Never Sev red. BROOKLYN, July 8. --Rev. •iDr: Tal- mage, who is now nearing the Anti - es. on his round -cheat -world journey, las selected lis tate subject for his ser - mora through the press to -day, "The. Rustic -in the Palace," the text being taken front Gen. 4528, •"I will go and' see him before I die." Jacob had long since passed the hun- dred year mile -foam on . In these times people were distinguished for longevity. In the centuries afterward pnrsous lived to great age. Galen,, the nit st celebrat- ed physician of his time, tout: so little of his own medicine that he li . ed 'to one hundred and forty years. A man of undoubted veracity on - t e witness- stand in England swOre that .te retneni- tiered an event one hundred and fifty% years before. Lord Bacon soetks of a countess who had cut three sets of teeth, and died at one hundred and fore- years. Joseph Crele, of Pennsyl- vauia, lived one hundred and forty rears. Int 1857 a book was printed con- taining the navies of thirty-seven per- sons who lived one hundred raid forty years, and the names of eleven persons who lived one hundred and fifty years. Among the grand old people of whirm sveihave record was Jacob, the shep- herd of the text. But he had a lot of boys. They were jealous and embi,ious, and, every way unprincipled., Joseph, however, seemed 'to be an exception. But he had been gone many y'ears, and the probability was that. lie i'as dead. As sometimes now in a house you will find kept at the table a vacant chair, a plate, ii knife, a fork, for some deceased member of the faintly, so Jacob kept in his heart apiece for his beloved Joseph. There sits the old ,,:an, the flock of one hundred and•'forty years in their • flight having alighted. long enough to leave the marks of their claw on forehead. and cheek, and temple. His long beard snows down over his chest. His eyes are somewhat dim, and he can see far- ther wizen they are • closed than when they are open, for he cau see clear back into the time when beautiful Rachael; Iris wife, was living, and his children shook. the Oriental abode with their merriment. The ceutenariaait is sitting dreaming over the past, when he hears a wagon rumbling up- to 'tlhe front door. He getsaup arid goes to the door • to` See who has arrived, and his long -absent sone -from Egypt come in and auiiounce to hit» that Joseph, instead of being dead, is living in an Egyptian palace, with all the investiture of Prime Minis - tet`, next to the king in the mightiest empire of all the. world I The neiyyyl§'was too sudden and too glad for the old man. and his cheeks whiten, and he has.a daz- ed look, and his staff falls out of his hand, and lie would have dropped had not the sons caught lam and led liar to a lounge and put cold water oil his face, laud fanned him a little. In that half delirium the old roan .mumbles something about his son Joseph. lie says: 'You don't menu Joseph, do you! ! my dear sun, who hits been dead so long. You don't meant Joeej>rt, do yeti?" t3nt after they had ttill� resuscitated hint, and the news was cuufiriued. the tears begn their winding watt•;, down ci•oysroa ds of the wrihktes, and the sunken lips of the old .mart quiver, and lie brings his bent lingers together as he says: •'Joseph is yet alive, I will go and see hint before I •It did not take.the old man a great while to get ready, I warraq you. He put on the best clothes that the shep- ltertr e wardrobe `could afford. He got into'the wagon,. -ail though the aged are cautious and like to ride slow. _tire , wagon did ' not get along fast enough for this old man; and when "the wagon -with the old .man meat Joseph's chariot coming tdowu to meet Niru, and Joseph got out of the cr.ariot and got into the wagon -acid threw alis arcus around -his father's neck, it was an antithesis of royalty and rusticity, of simplicity- and pomp, of filial affection and paternal love, Which leaves us so much in doubt about whether see had better laugh or cry, that we do both. So Jacob kept the resolu- tion o; ti re Luxe : "I will go and see him before I die." • What a strong add unfailing thing is parental :tttaclrrnent. Wes it mot almost time for Jacob to forget Joseph ?' The hot suns of amanr summers had blazed. on the heaeth; tate river Nile had over- flowed and receded, overflowed and re- ceded -again and :again ; the seed had been sown and the harveet reaped ; stars rose amid set ; years of plenty and years of famine had passed on, but the love of Jacob for Joseph in my text is over- wheliningly dramatic. Oh, that is a cord that is not snapped, though, pulled on by many decades. Though when the little child expired the parents may not have been mora titan twenty-five years of age, and now they are seventy- five, yet the vision of the -cradle, and• tate childish- face, and the first- utter sauces of the infantile lips are fresh to- day.in spite of the passage of half a cen- tury. Joseph was as fresh in Jacob's memory- as ever, though at seventeen years of age the "boy had disappeared from the• old homestead. I Lound' tri our family record the story of on infant that had died fifty years before, and I said to my parents : "What is this record, and what does it mean ?" Their chief answer was a long, deep sigh. It was to there yet a very tender sorrow, What does all that m.eau ? Why. it means our children departed are - ours yet, and that cord of attachment reach- ing across the years will hold, us- until it brings us together in the palace, as Jacob and Joseph were brought to.- gether. That is one thing that makes old people die happy. They realize it is reunion with those from whom they have long been separated. I armkotten asked as pastor. -and every pastor is asked the question -•`Will niy children be children in Heaven, and forever children ?" Well, attire was no doubt a great change in ,5seph from the time Jacob lost him and the time when Jacob found him -between the boy seventeen years of age and the man in mid-life, his forehead developed with the great business of state ; but Jacob Was glad to get back Joseph anyhow, and it did not make nuucit difference to the old man whether the boy looked - olds r or looked younger. And it will - be enough joy for that - parent if lie can get hack that sou, that Daughter, at ttie gate of Heaven, it herl►er the departed lived one shall conte a cherub or in full- _.growm a tmaelhood. There must be a change ivruLig rtt by that` celestial chi. mate and by those supernal years, but it will only be from loveliness t'+ mora loveliness, and from health to more radiant health. 0 parent, as you think of tine darling pantintr, and white in membraneous croup, I want von to know it will lie gloriously bettered in that land where there has never been a death, and where ail the inhabi- tants will live on in the itreat I rutule as tong as Uoer I' Joseph wits Joseph notwithstanding the palace, and your child will be your child notwithstanding all the raining splendors of everlasting noon. What at thrilling visit was that of the old shep- herd to the Prime Minister Joseph I I see the old countryman seated in they palace looking around at the mirr'orr and the fountains iitnd the camel- pil- lars, and to ! how he wishes that Rachel, his wife, was alive and she could have come there with him to see their on in his great house: "Oh," says the old man within himself, "I do wish Rachel could be here to see all this'!" I visited at the farm house of the father of Mil. lard Fillmore when the son was Presi- dent of the United States, and the octo- genarian farmer entertained rue until eleveno'clock at night telling me what great things he saw in hie son's house at Washington, and what Daniel Webster said tai him, and how grandly Millard treated his father in the White House. The old man's face was illumined with the story until almost the midnight. He had just been visiting his son at the 'Capitol. And I s uppose it was some- thing of the same joy that thrilled the heart of the old shepherd as he stood in the palace of the prime minister. Itis a great day, with you when your old parents come to visit you. Your little children stand around with great wide- open. eyes, wondering bow anybody could'beso old. The •parents cannot 'stay many days, for they. are a little restless, and especially at nightfall,, be- cause they sleep better in their own bed; but !while they tarry you somehow feel there is a benediction in every room in the house. They are a little feeble, and you make it as easy as you can for them, and you realize they will proba- bly not visit you very often -perhaps never again. -,You go to their room - after they have retired at night to see if the lights are properly put out, for the old'ipeople understand. candle and lamp better than the modeft apparatus for illupnination. - In thel morning, with real interest in their' health, you ask them how they rested last night. Joseph, in the histoiecal scene of the text, did not think any more of his father than you do of your parents. The probability is, before they leave your house they half spoil your children with kindness. Grandfather and grand - Mother are more lenient and indulgent to your children than they. ever were ° with you, And tv hat wonders of revelation in the boinbazine pocket of the one and the sleeve of the other ! Blessed,is that hopie where Christian parents come to visit ! Whatever may have been the style of the architecture when they cagle, is is a palace before they leave. If = they visit you fifty times, the two most memorable visits will be the first and- the last. Those two pictures will .haling in the hall of your memory while memory lasts, and you will remember just how they looked, and where they' sat, and what they said, and at what figure of the carpet, and at what door sill they parted with you, giving, you the final good -by. Do not be embar- rassed if your father•come, to town and he have the manner*, of the shepherd, and if your mother come to town and there be in her Sat no sign of costly millinery. The wife of the • Emperor Theodosius said a wise thing when she said, "Husbands, rememher what you lately were, and remember what you are, and be thankful. I By this time You all notice what kind ley provision Joseph made for his father Jacob. Joseph did not say, "I can't Have the old man around this place. How clumsy he would look climbing up these marble stairs, and walking over these mosaics! Then he would be put- ting his hands upon some of these fres- coes. People woald wonder where that Old greenhorn caine from. He would shock all the Egyptian court with his manners at table. 'Besides that, he Might get sick on my hands, and he Might be querulous, and he might talk to me as thought I were only a boy,when I am the second man in all the realm, Of course, he must not suffer, and if there is famine in his country -and I hear there is -I will send him some oto - visions; but I'can't take a man from Pa- danaram and introduce him into t! 'r polite Egyptian Court. What a nuisance it is to have poor relations!" If the father have large property, and he be wise enough to keep it in his own name, he will be respected by the heirs; but how often it is when the son finds his father. in famine. as Joseph found Jacob in famine, the young people make it very hard for the old man. They are so surprised he eats with a knife instead of. a fork. .They are chagrined at -his antediluvian habits. They are provoked because he cannot hear as well as he used to, and when he asks it over again, and the son has to repeat it, he bawls in the old man's ear : "I trope you hear that I" How long he must wear the old coat or the old hat before they get him a new one ! How chagrined they are at ' his independence of they English gram- mar 1 How long he hangs on ! Seventy years and not gone yet. Seventy:five years and not gone yet ! - Eighty years any not gone yet 1 Will he ever go They think it of no use to -have a doctor in his last sickness, and go up to the drug store and get a dose, of something that makes him worse, and economize on a coffin, and beat the undertaker down to the last point, giving a note for the reduced amount, which they never pay. I have officiated at obsequies of aged people where the family have been so inordinately resigned to Providence that I felt like taking my text from Proverbs : "The eye that iiiocketli at its father, , and refuseth to obey its mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, :and the young eagles shall eiflt it." in other words, such au ingrate ought to have a flick of crows for pall. bearers I I congratulate you if you have the honor of providing for. aged parents. Tne blessing of the Lord God of Joseph and Jacob will be on you. I rejoice to remember that though my father lived in a plain house the most of his dab s, lie died in a mansion provided by the filial piety of a son who had achieved a fortune. There the octogen- arian sat, and the servants waited on Bila, and there were plenty of horses and plenty of carriages to convey him, and a bower in which to sit on long sum titer afternoons, dreaming over the past; and there was' not aroom in the house where he was not welcome, and there were musical instruments of all sorts to regale him; and when life had passed, the neighbors carne out and ex- pressed all honor possible, and carried hini to the *Maga Machpelah, and put him down beside the Rachel with whom he had li'ved more than half a century. Share your successes with. the old peo- ple. The probability is that the prin- ciples they inculcated achieved your fortune. Give. them tare Ceristiaafr per- centage of kindly consi aeration. And here I would like to sing the - praises of the sisterhood- who remain un - marled that they might administer -to aged parents. The brutal world calls these self-sacrificing ones peculiar or angular; but if you had had as many annoyances as they have had, Xsattt.iirpe would have been an angel comp 'red to you.'
