Our Departed Christian Friends, Who in This World Were Fond of Music, Are Still Keguling That Taste In the World Celestial. Text: "Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, jn the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were openeJ." Ezekiel i., 1. Ezekiel, with others, hal been expatri ated, and while in foreign slavery, stand ing on the banks of the "royal canal which he and other serfs had been condemnel to dig by the or.ler oT Nebuibalnezar -this royal canal in the text calleJ the River of Chebar the illustrious exile ha I visions of heaven. Indeed it is almost al ways so that the brightest visions of heaven come not to thoso who are oa mountain top of prosperity, but to some John on desolate I'atmos, or to some Taul in Mamertino dungeon, or to some Ezekiel standing on the batiks of a ditch he had been compelled to di:r yea. to tho weary, to the heartbroken, to tho-o whom sorrow has banished. The text is vry particular to cive us the exast time of the vision. It was In tho thirteenth year and in tho fourt'i month and in the fifth day of th" m mi-'i. So you had visions of earUi you :-!;!. nver forgot. You remember the year, you remem ber the month, you reoieniber the day, you remember the hour. Why may w J not have some such vision now ami it b:J in the twelfth month and iu sixth day of tho month? The question is often silently aske l.thoub perhaps never audibly propounded, "What nre our departed Christian friends doim? now'r"' Tho question is more ea-i!y answered than you miirht perhaps supposo. Though there has come no recent into licence from the heavenly city, and we seem depeulent upon the story of oigateja centuries ago, still I think we may from strongest inference decide what aro tho presaut occupation of our transferred kinsfolk. After God has made a nature Ho never eradicates the cliioT characteristic of Jts temperaui-vnt. You never knew a man phlegmatic in temperament to become s.anguino in temperament. You never knew a man san guint in temperament to become phlegma tio in temperament. Conversion plants new princixles in tho soul, but Paul and John are just as different from each other after con version ns they were different from each other before convorsioa. It conversion doej not eradicate the prominent characteristics of temperament, neither will dt-a'h eradicate them. Paul and John nr.? as different from each other in heaven as thy word different from eaoh other in Asia Minor. You have, then, only by a sum in sub traction and a sum iu .addition to defile what are the employments of yo.ir departed friends iu the better world. You aro to subtract from them all earthly grossness and add all earthly goodness, ;m.i then you are to come to the conclusion that they are doing now in heaven what ia their best moment they did on earth. The reason, why so many paoplo never start for heaven Is because they could not stauA it if they got there if it should turn out to be the rigid and formal place somo people photo graph it. Wo like to como to church, but wo would not want to stay h?ro till next summer. Y"e like to hear the 'Hadeluiah Chorus," but wo would not want to hear It all the time for fifty centuries. It might be on some great occasion it would, be p -si-bly comfortable to wja- a crown or gold weighing several pounds, but it wotild be an affliction to wear such a crown foraver. In other words, we run the descriptions of heaven into the ground while we mak-3 that which was intended a? special and eelebrative to be the exclusive employment iu heaven. You might as well, if asked to describe tho habits of American society, describe a Decoration Day or a Fourth of July, or an autumnal Thanksgiving, as though it were all th- time that way. I am not going to speculate, in rei.ird to the future world, but I raiHt, by inevitable laws ot inference an I dodueli -a andcom'njn senso, conclude that in heaven w-i will be just as different from each other as wj aro now different, and hence that there will be at least as many different employments iuthe celestial world as there aro employments here. Christ is to bo the great love, the great joy, the great rapture, the great worship of heaven, but will that abolish employments? No more than love on earth paternal, filial, fraternal, conjugal love abolishes earthly occupation. In tho first place, I remark that all those of our departed Christian friends who oa earth found great joy intne Hue arts are now indulging their tastes in the same direction. On earth they had their gladdest pleasures amid pictures and statuary an I in tno study of the laws of light an 1 sha Ij and perspec tive. Have you auy idea that that afilu :uce of faculty at death col'apse l anl perishel? Why so, when there is more for tne:u to look at and they have keener appreciation of tli 3 beautiful and th?y stand amid the wry looms where the sunsets and tno rainbows and the spring mornings are woven? Are you so ob tuse as to suppose, becausj th;? painter drops his easel and tho sculptor his ehisel and the engraver his knife, that therefor' that tast s which he was enlarging and intensifying for forty or fifty years is entirely obliterate 1? These artists, or these friends of art on earth, worked in coarse material an-1 with imper fect brain and with Trail han 1. Now they have carried their art into larger liberties and into wider eir-uinfercneo. They are at their old business yet. but without the fatigues, without tho limitation, without the hindrances of the terrestrial studio. Raphael could improve upon his master piece of "Michael the Archangel" now that he has seen him, and could improve upon his masterpieces of the "llsly Trinity" now that he bus visited thm. Michael Angeio could better present the " Last Judgment" after he had feLm its flash and he.ird the rumbling battering rams of its thunder. Kx Uisite colors here, graceful line3 here, pow erful chiaroscuro here, but I am persuaded that the grander studies and the brighter galleries are higher up, by the wiuding mar ble stairs of the sepulcher, an t that Turner and liolmau Hunt and Rembrandt and Titian and Paul Veronese, if they exercised saving faith in the Christ whom they portrayed upon the canvas, are paiuting yet. but their strength of faculty multiplied ten thousand fold. I remark ngaiu that aU our departed Christian friends who in this world were passionately fond of music are still regaling that taste iu the world celestial. Tha Bible says so much abonfthe musii? of heaven that it cannot all be figurative. Why all this talk about hallelujahs and choirs on the glass and trumpets and harps and oratorios and or gans? The Uible over and overagain speaks of the songs of heaven. If heaven had no songs of its own. a vat number of those on earth would have been taken up by the earthly emigrants. Surely the Christian at death does not lose his memory. Then there must be millions of souls iu heaven who know "Coronation" an 1 "Antioch" and "Mount Pisgah" and ''Oid Hundred." Tha leader of the eternal orchestra need only once tap his baton, and all heaven will bo ready for the hallelujah. If heaven shoula ever get out of music, Thomas Hastings and Lowed Mason and Bradbury would start up a hundred old magnificent chorals. But what with the new song that John mentions, aud the vari ous doxologies alluded to, and the importa tion of sublunar harmonies, a Christian fond of music, dying, will have an abund ance of regalement. You mut remember that they have better instruments of music where they are. You ask me, "Do they have real harps and real trumpets and real organs?" I do not know. Some wiseacres say positively there are no such things In heavec I do not know, but I shouli not be surprised if the God who made all the mountains and all tlie hills, aud all the forests and all the mines of the earth, and all the growths of the universe I should not be surprised if He could, if He had a inind to. make a few harps and trumpets and organs. Grand ol 1 Haydn, sick and .rornour, was carnal for the last tfu.. into the music hall; there he heard his oratorio of the ''Creation." History says that as the orchestra came to that famous passage, "Let there be light!" the wholo audience rose and" cheered, aud Havdn waved his hand toward heaven and aid, "It comes from there!" Overwhelmed with his own music, he was carried out in his chair, and as lie came to tho door ho spread his hand toward the orchestra as in benediction. Haydn was right wh-?a he waved his hand tow.tr 1 heaven an I s.ii J, '-It eomes from there." Music was born ia heaven, and it will ever have its highest throne iu heaven, and I want you to under stand that our departed friends wh were passionately foa I of music lierj are now at the headquarters of harmony. I think that fca Brand old church tunes that dielTrU-' your grandfathers died have gone with them to heaven. Wnea thos? tunes died, they did not stay on earth, an 1 they could not "have been banished to perdition, and so I think they must be in the corridors of alabaster ami Lebanon scdar. Again. I remark that thosa of our de- Earted Christian friends who in this world a J very strong military spirit are now in armies celestial an 1 out in bloodless battie. There are hundreds of people born soliiers. They cannot help it. They belong to reg. msnts in time of paace. They cannot hear a drua: or flfe without trying to keep step to tho music. They are Christians, and when liey light they fight on the right site. Xow. when these our Christian friends who bad. natural and powerful military spirit ep.!e-ej heaven tbey entered tha celestial army. The door ot nsavan taaraaly opens but you hear "The chariots ot God are 20,000!" Elisha saw the mountains filled with celestial cav alry. St. John said, "The armies which are in heaven followed Him on whfte horses." Now. when those who had tho military spirit on earth sanctified entered glory, I suppose they right away enlisted on some heavenly campaign; they volunteered right away. There must needs ba in heaven soldiers with a sV.dierly spirit. There are grand para do days.whenthe King reviews the troops. There must be an armed escort seat out to bring up from earth to heaven those who were more ; than conquerors. There must be crusades : ever being fitted out for some part of God's dominion battles, bloo31e3s, groanless. painless angels of evil to be fought down and fought out, other rebellious worlds to be conquered, worlds to be put to the torch, worlds to be saved, worlds to be demoiishei, worlds to be sunk, worlds to bs hoisted. Be sides that, in cur own world there are bat tles for the right anl against the wrong where we must have the heavenly military. That is what keeps us Christian reformers so buoyai, So few good men against so many bad ri n; so few churches against so many grogsnops; so many pure printing presses against "so many pollutel printing presses, and yet we are buoyant and courageous, bocauss, while we know that the amies of evil In the world are larger in numbers than tho army of truth, there are celestial co horts in the a!r fighting on our aide. I hava not so much faith in the army on the ground as I hav in the army in the air. O God, open our eyes that we may see them the military spirits that went up from earth to join the military spirits beforo the throne Joshua and Caleb and Gideon an d David and Samson and tho hundreds ot Christian war riors who on earth fought with fleshly arm, Rnd now, having gone up on high, are com ing down tho hills of heaven ready to light among the invisibles. But what are our mathematical friends to do in the next world? They found their joy and delight iu mathematics. There was more poetry to them in Euclid than in John Milton. Tney were passionately fond of mathematics as Plato, who wrote over his door, "Let no one enter here who is not ac quainted with geometry." What nre they doing now? They are busy with figures yet. No piaee in all the universe l:ke heaven for figures. Numbers incite, distances infinite, calculations Infinite. If they want them, arithmetics and algebras and geometries and trigonometries for aU eternity. What' fields of space to bo surveyed! What magnitude to measure! Wiiat diameters, what circum ferences, whst triangles, what quaternions, what epicycloids, what parallelograms; what couic sections! What are our depart e I Christian friends who .aro explorers doing now? Exploring yer, but with lightning locomotion, with vision microscopic an J teles jorjio at th samo time. A continent a' a glance, a world in a s.von 1, a planetary system in a day. Chris tian John Franklin, no mora in disabled E.vbin pushing toward tho North Pole; Cbri-tiau Do Long, no more tryini to free blockaded Jeauaette from tho ice; Christian L'.viugstone, no more amid African malarias, trying to make revelation of a dark con tinent but nil oT them in the twinkling ofaa eye taking in that which was ouca unap proachable. Mont Blanc scalod without alpenstock, the coral depths of the ocean ex plored without a diving boll, the mountains unbarred and opened without Sir Humphrey Davy's safety lamp. What are our departed friends whofounl their chief joy in study doing now? Study ing yet, but, instead ot a few thousand vol umes on a few shelves, all the volumes of the univorso open befora them geologic, orni tho'.ogic. eoaeholog'ic. botanic, astronomic, pnilosophic. No more need of Leyden jars or voltaic piles or electric batteries, taa ling as they do face to face with the facts of tho universe What are the historians doing now? Studying history yet, but not the history of a few centuries of our planet only, but the history of the eternities whole millen niums, beforo XeuopUen or HcroJotm or Moses or Adam was born. History of one world, history of nil worlds. What arc our departol astronomers doing? Studying nstrouomy yet, but not through the dull lens of earthly observatory, but with one htroke of win going right out to Jupi ter and Mars anl Mercury and Saturn and Orion anl the Pleiades, overtaking aud passing the swiftest comet in their flight. Herschel died a Christian. Have vou any doubt about what Herschel is doing? Isaac Newton died a Christian. Have you auy doubt about what Isaac Newton i.s doina? Joseph Henry died a Christian. Have you any doubt about what Joseph Henry is -io-iug? They were in discussion, all theso as tronomers of earth, about what tho aurora borealis was, and none of them could guess. They know now; they have been out there to see for themselves. What are our departed Christian chemists doing? Following out their own science, fol lowing out and following out forever. Since they Uiod they have solved 10,003 questions which puzzled the earthly laboratory. They stand on tho otherside of tha thin wall of electricity the thin wall that seems to di vide the physical from the spiritual world? the thin wall of electricity, so thin the wall that ever and anon it seems to be almost broken through broken through from one silo by telephonic an l telegraphic ap paratus, brokon through from the other side by strange influences which meu in their ignorance call spirit ualistic manifestations. All that matter cleared up. They laughing at us as older brothers will laugh at inexperienced broth ers, ns they see us with contracted brows ex perimenting and experimenting, only wish ing they could show ns the way to open all the mysteries. Agassiz standing amid his student explorers down in Brazil, coming across some great novelty iu the rocks, tak ing oft his hat aud saying: "Gentlemen, let us pray. We must have divine illumination.

Chain of law. What it pluct to study law, where all the links of the chait are in the hand! What are our departed Christian friendi who in this world had their joy in the heal ing art doing now? Busy at thoir old busi ness. No sickness in heaven, but plenty o" sickness on earth, pleutv of wounds in the different parts of God's dominion to be healed and to be medicated; those glorified souls coming down not in lazy doctor's gig, but with lightning locomotion. You cannot understand why that patient got well after all the skillful doctors had said ho must die. Perhaps Abercrombie, who, after many years doctoring the bodies and the soul's of people iu Scotlau 1. went up to Go 1 in 1S14. Perhaps Abercrombie touehed him. I should not wonder if ray old friend. Dr. John Brown, who died in Ed inburgh Jonu Brown, tho author of "Rah and His Friends," John Brown, who was as humble a Cnristian as he was a skillful phy sician and world renowned author-I should not wonder if he had been back again and agcin to see some of his old patients. Those who had their joy in healing the sickness and the woe.s of earth, gonoiip to heaven, aro coma forth again for Leni-'cant medi cament. But what are our friends who found their chief joy in conversation and in sociality do ing now? In brighter conversation there and in grander sociality. . What a pin ?e to visit in when your next door neighbors are kings andjqueens, you yourselves kindly anil queen ly! If they want to know more particularly about the first paradise, they h".ve only to go over and ask Adam. If they want tc know how the sun and the moon halted, they have only to go over and ask Joshua. If they want to; Know how the storm pelted Soaom. they have; only to go over an 1 ask Lot. If they want' to know more about tho arrogance of Haman, they have only !o go over an 1 ask Mordecai. If they want to know how the lied Sea boiled when it was cloven.they have onlvto go over and ask Moses. If they want to know the 'particulars about the "Bethlehem advent, they have only to go over and ask the serenading angels who stood that Christ mas night in the balconies of crystal. If they want to know more of the particulars of the crucifixion, they have onty to go over and ask those who were personal spectator? while the mountains crouched and the heavens got black in the face atthespec tade. If they want to know more about the sufferings ot the Scotch Covenanters, they have only to go over anl ask Andrew Mel ville. If they want to know more about the old time revivals, they have only to go over to ask Whitefleld. and Wesley, and Livings ton, and Fletcher, and Nettleton, and Finney. But what are oar departel Christian friends who in all departments of usefulness were busy finding their chier joy in doing good what are they doing now? Going right on with the work. John Howard vis iting dungeons; the deal woa?n of northern ani southern battlefields still abroad looking for the wounded: George Peabody still watching the poor; Thomas Clarkson still looking after the enslaved all of those who did good on earth busier since death than before; the tombstone not the terminus,but the starting post.

Now they can handle the omnipotent thunderbolts just as a child handles the sword ot a fath er come back from victorious battle. They have no slsi no fear, consequently. Studying Christ, not throuj'a a revelation save the revelation of the sears that deep lettering which brings it all up quick enough. Studying the Christ ot the Beth lehem caravansary; the Christ of the awful massacre, with its hemorrhage of heal and hand and foot and side; the Christ of tha shattered mausoloum; Christ the sac rifice, the Star, the Son, the Man, the God,' the God-Man, the Man-God. But bark! The bell of the cathedral rings the cathedral bell of heaven. What is the matter now? There is going to be a great meeting in tha temple; worshipers all coming through tha aisles. Make room for the Conqueror, Christ standing in the temple. AU Leaven gather ing around Him.S Those who lovedthe beau tiful come to look at tha Rose of Sharon. Those who loved music come to listen to'His voice. Those who were mathematicians come to count the years of His reign.

But there may be some of our young readers who scarce ly know what a silhouette is, and such unenlightened persons we will en deavor briefly to instruct in the al most forgotten art. A few sheets of drawing paper, a pencil and a lamp are all the essentials needed to com mence operations. Tlie operator llrst fixes a sheet of paper to tho wall by inserting a pin in each corner. Then the person whose likeness, or "silhouette," is to be taken, is seated in a chair close to the wall in such a position as to throw a dis tinct shadow of bis profile (as near life size as possible) on the center of the paper. To secure steadiness a wine glass or some such support is placed between his head and tlie wall, for the slightest movement often causes fail ure. Having arranged these matters satisfactorily, the operator proceeds to sketch with a pencil the head and pro tile of the "sitter," and this retinites a steady hand aud some dispatch, as it Is no easy matter to sit in one position for a great b-ngtli of time perfectly mo tionless. When the sketch is conclud ed little skill will be needed to bring the task to an end. The operator has only with a sharp penknife to cut out tho head in the line of the pencil mark. Tlie center part is then thrown aside and the other pairtr laid on a piece of black cloth, which throws out the fea tures boldly, and if sutiicient care has been taken a striking likeness will be the reward.

Faith Is always the basis of Joy in religion. Get a man to think right, and God will get him to do right. God sends bis witnesses where they are needed the most. The more we love God, the more we will be willing to do for man. The devil always goes to the wedding when people marry for money. God sees heroes where men see only the commonest kind of people. Wj may be able to gn rid of God's man, but never of God's truth. Every dollar some men get Increases the!r chance of missing heaven. When some people hav nothing to tay they seem to talk the most. The aim of many sermons is too low for angeLs, and too high for men. A man may wear religion as a cloak, and yet freeze hid soul to death. Man's blindest eyi Is on the side where he thinks it will pay to sin. The real chosen people of God are those who kuow hi will and do it. A doubt is the heaviest burden the devil can bind on a Christian's back. No man prays In earnest who does not expect to get just what he asks. Obscurity on earth will not keep any body from becoming famous in heaven. The man who walks with God mnst keep step with everything that Is good. It Is doubtful if we can truly own anything for which we are not grate ful. The Lord's army was never defeated because thu opposing army had giants in it. The first dart the devil aims at a young convert is always pointed with t a doubt. The devil has no dart in his quiver j that may not be quenched by the 6hield j of faith. j The more a mean man has to say in I church, the more it hurts the cause of j true religion. Tho man who would have the power j to move mountains must begin on j grains of sand. j Let a vote be tn&en to determine who Is the wisest man, and every fool will vote for himself. We kuow exactly what kind of a man Adam was, when we become well ac quainted with ourselves. The' devil is often made welcome iu n home where there is a handsome Bible on the center table. Oom Paal Could Fill It. Here is another characteristic story about the president of the Transvaal. In tlie days when Johannesburg was merely I'arreira'a mining camp, Krue ger was one day riding over the Wit watersrand in ordinary burgher attire. He off-saddled near a wagon owned by a German. The Teuton did not rec ognize the president, and held forth on the many things he would do were he ruler of the etate. Suddenly Oom Paul, to the great astonishment of the German, who was a very small man, took off his coat, and, holding it out toward the stranger, said: "Put thli on." "Rut," replied the latter, "it's too big." "Just so," replied his honor, with a grim smile. "I'm Paul Kruegcr, and it Is not too big for me." Treasurer Legg, of Tike County.
