A TOMB AND A TEMPLE

THE FAMOUS TAJ MAHAL AND ELEPHANTA CAVES.

THE

Rev. Dr. Talmage Describes at Length the Exquisite Architecture of the Hindoos and Compares Their Materialism With the Spirituality of the Christian Faith.

BROOKLYN, Jan. 6.—In continuing his series of round the world sermons through the press Rev. Dr. Talmage today chose for his subject "Tomb and Temple," having reference to that most famous and beautiful of mausoleums, the Taj Mahal. The text selected was, "From India even unto Ethiopia" (Esther i, 1).

In all the Bible this is the only book in which the word India occurs, but it stands for a realm of vast interest in the time of Esther, as in our time. It yielded then, as now, spices and silks and cotton and rice and indigo and ores of all richness and precious stones of all sparklo and had a civilization of its own as marked as Egyptian or Grecian or Roman civilization. It holds the costliest tomb ever built and the most unique and wonderful idolatrous templo over opened. For practical }essons in this my sixth discourse in round the world series I show you that tomb and temple of India.

In a journey around tho world it may I not be easy to tell the exact, point which divides tho pilgrimage into halves. But there was one structuro toward which we were all the time traveling, and liaviug seen that we felt that if we saw nothing more our expedition would bo a success. That one object was the Taj Mahal of India. It is the crown of tho I wliolo earth. The spirits of architecture met to inthronca king, and tho spirit of tho Parthenon of Athens was there, and the spirit of fc5t. Boplua of Constantinopie was there, and the spirit of St. Izaak of St. Petersburg was there, and tho spirit of the Baptistery of Pisa wan there, and tho spirits of the great pyramid and of Luxor obelisk, and of the Porcelain tower of Nankin, and of St. Mark's of Venice, and the spirits of all the groat towers, great cathedrals, great mausoleums, great sarcophagi, great capitols for the living and of great necropolises for the dead were there. And the presiding genius of tho throng with gavel of Parian marble smote the table of Russian malachite, and called tho throng of spirits to order, and called for a vote as to which spirit should wear tho chief crown, and mount the chief throne, and wave the chief scepter, andbvunanimous acclaim the cry was: "Long live tho spirit of the Taj, king of all tho spirits of architecture! Thine is the Taj Mahal of India!"'

I'liliii!s All Kxpectiitions.

The building is about six miles from Agra, and as we rode out in the early '"dawn we heard nothing but tlx hoofs nid wheels that pulled and turned us along the road, at every yard of which our expectations rose until wo had some thought that we might be disappointed at the first glimpse, as some say they were disappointed. But how can anjr one bo disappointed with the Taj is almost as great a wonder to me as the Taj itself. There art some people always disappointed, and who knows but that having entered heaven they may eriticise the architecture of the temple and tho cut of the white robes, and say that the river of Life is not qnito up to their expectations, and that the white horses on which tho conquerors ride seem a littie spring halt or spavined?

My son said, "There it is!" I said, "Where?" For that which he saw to be the building seemed to mo to be moro like tho morning cloud blushing under the stare of the rising sun. It seemed not so much built ujvfrom earth as let down from heaven. Fortunately you stop at an elaborated gateway of red sandstone one-eighth of a mile from tho Taj, an entrance so high, so arched, so I graceful, so four domed, so painted and chiseled and scrolled that you come very gradually upon tho Taj, which I structuro is enough to intoxicate the eyo and stun the imagination and entrance tho soul. Wo go up the winding stairs I of this majestic entrance of the gateway, I and buy a few pictures, and examine a few curios, and from it look oft upon the

Taj, and descend to tho pavement of the garden that raptures everything between the gateway and tho ecstasy of marble and precious stones. You pass along a deep stream of water in which all manner of brilliant fins swirl and float. There are 84 fountains that spout and bend and arch themselves to fall in

Ail IK al Memorial.

As you aipruaeh the door of tho Taj ono experiences a strange sensation of awe and tenderness and humility and worship. The building is only a grave, but what a grave! Built for a queen, who, according to some, was very good, and according to others was very bad. I choose to think she was very good. At any rate, it makes me feel better to think that this commemorative pilo was set up for tho immortalization of virtuo rather than vice. The Taj is a mountain of white marble, but never such walls faced each other with exquisitenoss never such a tomb was cut from block of alabaster nover such a congregation of precious stones brightened and gloomed and blazed and chastoned and glorified a building since sculptor's chisol out

showers of poarl in basins of snowy whiteness. Beds of all imaginable flora palaco for tho dead all this constructed greet the nostril before they do the eyo I t() cover a handful of dust, bnt even that and seem to roll in waves of color as handful has probably gone from the you advance toward the vision you are mausoleum. How much better it would soon to have of wh,.t human genius did Jmve been to expend $00,000,000, which when it did its best moon flowers, lilacs, marigolds, tulips and almost everywhere the lotus thickets of bewildering bloom on either side trees from

On and on you go amid tamarind and cypress and poplar and oleander and yew and sycamore and banyan and palm and trees of such novel branch and leaf and girth you cease to ask their name or nativity.

its first curve, or painter's pencil traced its first figure, or mason's plumb 'line measured its first wall, or architect's compass swept its first circle.

The Taj has 1G great arched windows, four at each corner also at each of 'the four corners of the Taj stands a minaret 137 feet high also at each side of this building is a splendid mosque of red sandstone. Two hundred and fifty years has tho Taj stood, and yet not a wall is cracked, nor a mosaic loosened, nor an arch sagged, nor a panel dulled. The storms of 250 winters have not marred nor the boats of 250 summers disintegrated a marble. There is no story of age written by mosses on its white surface. Montaz, the queen, was I beautiful, and Shah Jehan, the king, I here proposed to let all tho centuries of I time know it. She was married at 20 I years of age and died at 29. Her life ended as another life began. As tho rose bloomed the rosebush perished,

Glittering With Jewels.

To adorn this dormitory of the dead, at tho command of the king, Bagdad sent to this building its cornelian and Ceylon its lapis lazuli, and Punjab its jasper, and Persia its amethyst, and Tibet its turquoise, and Lanka its sappliire, and Yemen its agate, and Punna its diamonds and blood stones and sardonyx and chalcedony and moss agates I are as common as though they were pebbles. You find ono spray of vine beset with 80 and another with 100 stones. I Twenty thousand men were 20 years in building it, and although the labor was slavo labor, and not paid for, tho building cost what would be about $00,000,000 of our American money. Some of tho jewels have been picked out of the wall by iconoclasts or conquerors, and substitutes of less value have taken their places, but the vines, the traceries, the arabesques, the spandrels, tho entablatures are so wondrous that you feel like dating tho rest of your life from the day you first saw them. In letters of black marblo the whole of tho Koran is spelled out in and on this august pilo. The king sleeps in the tomb besido the queen, although he intended to build a palace as black as this was whito on the opposite side of tho river for himself to sleep in.

Indeed the foundation of such a necropolis of black marble is still there, and from the white to tho black temple of the dead a bridgo was to cross, but the son dethroned him and imprisoned him, and it is wonderful that the king had any place at all in which to be buried. Instead of windows to let in tho light upon tho two tombs, thero is trellis work of marble, marble cut so delicatoly thin that the sun shines through it as easily as through glass. Look tho world over and find so much transluccncy, canopies, traceries, lace work, embroideries of stone.

Wo had heard of tho wonderful resonance of this Taj, and so I tried it. I suppose thero are more sleeping echoes in that building waiting to be wakened by the human voice than in any building ever constructed. I uttered one word, and thero seemed descending invisible choirs in full chant, and thero was a reverberation that kept on long after one would have expected it to cease. When a lino of a hymn was sung, there were replying, rolling, rising, falling, interweaving sounds that seemed modulated by beings seraphic. Thero were aerial sopranos and bassos, soft, high, deep, tremulous, emotional, commingling. It was like an antiplional of heaven. But thero are four or live Taj Mahals. It has one appearance at sunrise, another at noon, another at sunset and another by moonlight. Indeed tho silver trowel of tho moon, and the golden trowel of tho sunlight, and the leaden trowel of the storm build and rebuild the glory, so that it never seems twice alike. It has all moods, all complexions, all grandeurs. From tho top of tho Taj, which is 250 feet high, springs a spire 80 feet higher, and that is enameled gold. What an anthem in eternal rhythm! Lyrics and elegies in marble. Sculptured hosanna. Masonry as of supernatural hands. Mighty doxology in stone. I shall

the great whito throne, and on it him from whose face tho earth and heavens fieo away.

The Pride of India.

Tho Taj is the prido of India, and especially of Mohammedanism. An English officer at tho fortress told us that when during the general mutiny in 1857 the Mohammedans proposed insurrection at Agra the English government .aimed tho guns of the fort at tho Taj and said, "You mako insurrection, and that same day wo will blow your Taj to atoms," and that threat ended the disposition for mutiny at Agra.

But I thought while looking at that

the Taj Mahal cost, for tho living. What asylums it might havo built for tho sick, what houses for the homeless! What improvement our century has made upon

departed memorial churches, memorial hospitals, memorial reading rooms, memorial observatories. By all possible means let us keep the memory of doparted loved ones fresh in mind, and let there be an appropriate headstone or I monument in tho cemetery, but there is a dividing line between reasonable commemoration and wicked extravagance. The Taj Mahal has its uses as an architectural achievement, eclipsing all other architecture, but as a memorial of a do- I parted wife and mother it expresses no more than tho plainest slab in many a country graveyard. The best monument we can any of us have built for us when we are gone is in tho memory of those whose sorrows wo have alleviated, in tho wounds wo have healed, in the kindnesses wo havo done, in the ignorance we havo enlightened, in tho recreant we havo reclaimed, in the souls wo havo saved. Such a monument is built out of material more lasting than marble or bronze and will stand amid tho eternal splondors long after tho Taj Mahal of India shall havo gone down in tho ruins of a world of wh ch it was the costliest

adornment. Bnt

promised to show you

not only a tomb of India, bnt a unique heathen temple, and it is a temple underground.

With miner's candle we had seen something of the nnderside of Australia, as at Gimpie, As with guide's torch we had seen at different times something of the underside of America, as in Mammoth cave, but we are now to enter one of the sacred collars of India, commonly called the Elephanta caves. We had it all to ourselves, the steam yacht that was to take us about 15 miles over the harbor of Bombay and between enchanted islands, and along shores whose curves and gulches and pictured rocks gradually prepared the mind for appreciation of the most unique spectacle in India. The morning had been full of thunder and lightning and doluge, but the atmospheric agitations had ceased, and the cloudy ruins of the storm were piled up in the heavens, hugo enough and darkly purple enough to make the skies as grandly picturesque as the earthly scenery amid which we moved.

The Idols of Klephanta.

After an hour's cutting through the water we came to the long pier reaching from the island called Elephanta. It is an island small of girth, but (300 feet high. It declines into the marshes of mangrove. But tho wliolo island is one tangle of foliage .and verdure convolvulus creeping the ground mosses climbing the rocks vines sleeving the long arms of the trees red flowers here and thero in tho woods, like incendiary's torch trying to set tho groves on fire— cactus and acacia vying as to which can most charm the beholder tropical bird meeting particolored butterfly in jungles planted the same summer tho world was born. We stepped out of the boat amid enough natives to afford all tho help wo I needed for holding and guidance. You can bo carried by coolies in an easy I chair, or you can walk, if you are blessed with two stout limbs, which the psalmist evidently lacked, or he would not have so depreciated them when ho said, "The Lord taketh no pleasure in the legs of a man. Wo passed up some stone steps, and between tho walls wo saw awaiting us a cobra, ono of those snakes which greet the travolor ofttimes in India. Two of the guides left the cobra dead by the wayside. They must have been Mohammedans, for Hindoos never kill that sacred reptile.

And now we come near the famous templo hewn from oue rock of porphyry at least 800 years ago. On either side of the chief templo is a chapel, these cut out of the same stone. So vast was the undertaking and to the Hindoo was so great tho human impossibility that they say the gods scooped out this structure from tho rock and carved the pillars and hewed its shape into gigantic idols and dedicated it to all the grandeurs. Wo climb many stono steps boforo wo get to the gateways. The entrance to this temple has sculptured doorkeepers leaning on sculptured devils. How strange! But I havo seen doorkeepers of churches and auditoriums who seemed to bo leaning on the demons of bad ventilation and asphyxia. Doorkeepers ought to bo leaning on the angels of health and comfort and life. All tho sextons and janitors of the earth who have spoiled sermons and lectures and poisoned the lungs of audiences by inefficiency ought to visit this cave of Elephanta and bowaro of what these doorkeepers are doing, when instead of leaning on tho angelic they lean on tho demoniac.

In theso Elephanta caves everything is on a Samsonian and Titanian scale. With chisels that were dropped from nerveless hands at least eight centuries ago, the forms of the gods Brahma and Vislmu and Siva wero cut into tho everlasting rock. Siva is hero represented by a liguro 16 feet 9 inches high, one-half man and one-half woman. Run a line from tho center of the forehead straight to tho floor of the rock, and you divide this idol into masculine and feminine. Admired as this idol is by many, it was to mo about the worst thing that was over cut into porphyry, perhaps because there is hardly anything on earth so objectionable as a being half man and half woman. Do bo one or other, my hearer. Man is admirable, and woman is admirable, but either in flesh or traprock a compromise of tho two is hideous. Savo us from effeminato men and masculine women!

Sculptured Gods.

Yondor is tho King Ravaua worshiping. Yonder is tho sculptured reprosentatation of tho marriago of Siva and Parhati. Yonder is Daksha, tho son of Brahma, born from the thumb of his right hand. He had GO daughters. Seventeen of those daughters wero married to Kasyapa and became tho mothers of tho lAuiiun race. Yonder is a god with three heads. Tho center god has a crown wound with necklaces of skulls. The right hand god is in a paroxysm of rage, with forehead of snakes, and in its hand is a cobra. The left hand god has pleasuro in all its features, and tho hand has a flower. But there are gods and goddesses in all directions. Tho chief temple of this rock is 130 feet square and has 20 pillars rising to tho roof. After the conquerors of other lands and tho tourists from all lands havo chipped and defaced and blasted and carried away curios and meniontos for museums and homes thero are enough entrancoments loft to detain ono unless ho is cautious until ho is down with some of the malarias which encompass this island or got bitten with some of its snakes. Yes, I felt the chilly dampness of tho place and left this congress of gods, this pandemonium of demons, this pantheon of indifferent deities, and came to the steps and looked off upon the waters which rolled and flashed around tho steam yacht that was waiting to return with us to Bombay. As wo stepped aboard, our minds filled with tho idols of tthe Elephanta oaves, I was impressed as never before with the thought, that man must have a religion of some kind oven if ho has to contrive ono himself, and ho must havo a god oven though ho mako it with his own hand. I rejoico to know the day will come when tho one God of

the universe will be acknowledged throughout India. That evening of our return to Bombay I visited the Young Men's Christian association with the same appointments that you find in the Young Men's Christian associations of Europe and America, and tho night after that I addressed a throng of native children who are in the schools of tho Christian missions. Christian universities gather under thsir wing of benediction a host of the young men of this country. Bombay and Calcutta, tho two great commercial cities of India, feel the elevating power of an aggressive Christianity. Episcopalian liturgy, and Presbyterian Westminster catechism, and Methodist anxious seat, and Baptist waters of consecration now stand where once basest idolatries had undisputed sway. The work which Shoemaker Carey inaugurated at Serampore, India, translating the Bible into 40 different dialects, and leaving his wornout body amid tho natives whom he had come to save, and going up into tho heavens from which ho can better watch all the field—that work will be completed in the salvation of the millions of India, and beside him gazing from the same high places stand Bishop Heber and Alexander Duff and John Scudder and Maekay, who fell at Delhi, and Moncrieff, who fell at Ca\vnpur, and Polchampton, who fell at Lucknow, and Freeman, who fell at Futtigarli, and all heroes and heroines who for Christ's sake lived and died for the Cliristianization of India, and their heaven will not be complete until tho Ganges that washes the ghats of heathen temples shall roll between churches of the living God, and the trampled womanhood of Hindooism shall havo all tho rights purchased by him who amid tho cuts and stabs of his own assassination cried out, "Behold thy mother!" and

Coromandel thero be lifted hosannas to him who died to redeem all nations. In that day Elephanta cave will be one of tho places where idols are "cast to the moles and bats."

If any clergyman asks me, as an unbelieving minister of religion once asked tho Duko of Wellington, "Do you not think that the work of converting the Hindoos is all a practical farce?" I answer him as Wellington answered tho unbelieved minister, "Look to your marching orders, sir!" Or if auy one having joined in the gospel attack feels I like retreating I say to him, as General Havelock said to a retreating regiment, "Tho enemy are in front, not in the rear," and leading them again into the fight, though two horses had been shot under him.

Fight iwg i'or Christ.

Indeed tho taking of this world for Christ will bo no holiday celebration, but as tremendous as when in India

Still tho panic stricken lad only stared at tho questioner. "Why, I believe tho fellow is stono deaf!" exclaimed tho doctor, and taking out his watch he held it to tho left ear of the recruit, saying, "Can you hear tho ticking?"

Tho youth shook hi: head. Tho watch was applied to tho other ear, with tho same effect, and then tho doctor began to shower his indignation on tho head of tlio future soldier.

Then Sir Colin ad- I dressed his troops, saying, "Remember tho women and children must be rescued!" and his men replied: "Aye, aye, Sir Colin! We stood by you at Bala- I klava, and wo stand by you here." And then came the triumphant assault of the I battlements. So in this gospel campaign, which proposes capturing tho very last citadel of idolatry and sin and hoisting over it the banner of the cross wo may liavo hurled upon us mighty opposition and scorn and obloq'-,, and many may fall before tho work is done, yet at every call for now onset let tho cry of the church be: "Aye, aye, great captain of our salvation! Wo stood by thee in other conflicts, and wo will stand by thee to tho last. And then, if not in this world, then from tho battlements of tho next, as tho last Appolyonic fortification shall crash into ruin, wo will join in tho shout, "Thanks be unto God, who givoth us tho victory!" "Halleluiah, for tho Lord God omnipotent reigneth!"

Negotiations For Peace Between China and Japan.

OPINION OF MINISTER DENBY. I SI

Japan Positively Refuses to Grant an Armistice and Will Withhold Ifer Terms For I'eace Until the Japaaese Occupy the

Chinese Capital—HIM exploring the Coast of Shantung, LONDON, Jan. 7.—A dispatch to The Times from Pekin says that the Chinese envoy to negotiate for peace with Japan had a farewell audience with the emperor on Friday. Japan positively refuses to grant an armistice. Mr. Denby, the American minister, believes that the negotiations will be fruitless. The Japanese will withhold their terms for peace until they shall have occupied Pekin. Japanese landing parties are bus}' exploring the bays on the coast of the province of Shantung.

THAT SUGAR DUTY.

The Cause of Ketaliatury Measures by tlie Nations of liurope. WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.—Every indication points to a combined move oil tho part of the continental European powers to resent the violation of treaty provisions embodied in the discriminating duty levied against German beet sugar, because of the German bounties given to German sugar producers and German law.

The German government, especially, is exhibiting remarkable ingenuity in calling the attention of the United States to the errors of its congress in enacting legislation in contravention to

presented by the German ambassador against an alleged unwarranted perversion of consular prerogatives.

This new protest, which has just been presented, caused a conference between Secretary Olney and Secretary Carlisle Saturday, after which Secretary (iresham spent some time wirh the president, but it is not understood that a final conclusion as to the course of this government has been readied.

Baron A. Von Saurnia Jcltsch, German ambassador to the United States, has been instructed to make a formal protest to ttie United S'ates government against the restrictions placed upon Germans going to tie United States or trading therewith, as being in violation of Article 2 of the treaty with Prussia of lb75.

Not only Belgium, but France also, is following Germany's lead. A shipment of 800 cattle from the west to Bordeaux, France, is now in quarantine Hew York, because the French consul refused to certify to their immunity from "Texas fever," or some other imaginary

So little trouble was anticipated with regard to shipments to France that bills of lading on the cattle were discounted by New York banks. Nevertheless the cattle are still in New Jersey stockyards, with small prospects of ever making an ocean trip.

On all hands it is admitted that the interruption of foreign trade growing out of the alleged violation ol: treiuy obligations with Germany in regard to the beet sugar is growing most serious.

HAWAIIAN CONSPIRATORS."'-

They Were Betrayed by 1 lie Spies of the Govt mi i« I )v ails. SAN FRANCISCO, .Tan. 7.—The following advices were received from Honolulu by the steamer China under dato of December .'U:

The preliminary examination of the alleged conspirators took place last week and three of them have been held for trial without, bail. The main witnesses for the prosecution were spies in the employ of the government who wormed themselves into the confidence of the conspirators and when the proper time came gave the whole thing away. According to the testimony of tho witnesses for the government there was a deliberate plot to obtain possession of the government buildings and all the prominent supports of the republic were to be surrounded a»'d arrested at their homes by details of the conspirators.

The gove/nment detectives even obtained complete lists of those who were to be arrested. Among them were President Dole, his cabinet officers, members of the executive and advisory councils, newly elected members of the legislature, customhouse, army and police officials.

The conspirators claimed to liav® 2,000 stands of arms and the sup-

acy was simply gotten up by a gang of discontented whites and half whites. President Dole has received an autograph letter from President Montt of Chili recognizing the new republic.
