In-answer, the following propositions were offered and supported by a strong array of scripture evidence. First: If there-is no such thing as a resurrection, of living again of those who die, then there is no future life at all; and éven ‘‘those who sleep in Christ are perished.’’ But, secondly, the scriptures abound in promises of a resurrection or living again of pends upon the, ability of God to fali fill His word. ‘Thirdly: God has demonstrated His power todo this by raising His Son from death, and Christ manifested His power by raising the:widow’s son, Lazarus and Jarius’ daughter, and also by empowering his disciples te do the same thing in several instances. . Fourthly: A resurreetion requires at. the one raised must be the same one that died; and that nothing can be resurrected but what is first dead; that which is alive cannot be raised or quickened, Itis nota new creation, but. a making alive “again of that which was once alive; but.is now dead. © This idea was finely illustrated by the case of a prince who dropped .a valuable silver cup into a vessel of acid,in which it was completely dissolved, and as he. supposed, lost. A chemist, learning the fact, offered to restore his cup, which to the prince’s joy he did, by precipitating the silver in the solution, and then dential terms ofthe same citizen.

He was a man of superior education, having: graduated at Dickinson College with the highest honors, His becoming an actor was the result of an accident. Being a member of an amateur company at New Orleans, in 1854, he appeared as Sir Harcourt Courtley in Boucicault’s excellent comedy of “Tjondon Assurance,’? and made. so palpable hit that they newspapers, of that city. bestowed upon him the most extravagant praise. From this time forth he became stage struck, gavé up h’s business as a merchant and adopted the precarious life of a strolling actor.

The flowers which are planted by affectionate hands on ‘the graves of the departed are dug up and carried away. The thing is becoming a little rough. On the 15th inst. Senator Cole submitted.to the U. 8. Senate a protest of twenty-four thousand leading citizens of San Francisco against the cession of Goat Island to the Central Pacific Railway.
