TEie following eloquent and patriotic
sermon was preached on Thanksgiving day
by the • -Rev. 'Edward Hawes, Pastor of the
Central Congregational Church, at Eigh
teenth and Green Btreets:
! Rev.xiv.-7.—Fear God and give glory to
him.
Without anyspeoific Divine injunction,
the narratives of the- Bible would teach us
the propriety, and remind us of the duty of
taking special notice of the acts of God’s
goodness, of keeping thereof,
and. of bo h celebrating His praises our-
and inciting others to do likewise.
The-children of Israel were commanded to
remember and Uncelebrate the day of their
deliverance from the house of bondage.
The. songs of Moses, and of Deborah and
Barak; the setting up of stones, and build
ing of alters, by 'Joshua and Samuel, all
tell of victories achieved, and great national
blessings bestowed. -How dues David extol
Divine power, and vow to God perpetual
praise; reminding of His universal Provi
dence, rehearsing Hie wondrous deeds, and
calling upon dragons,and all deeps, dre and
bail,stormy wind fulfilling His word,moun
tains, fruitful trees, beasts, creeping things,
at-d-flying fowl; all things living, and
all inanimate,, kings, princes and judges,
young, men and maidens, old men and chil
dren topraise the name of the L >rd; for His
name atone is excellent; for His glory is
above theeaith and heaven. By this ser
vice of ours to-day we respond to the call to
make public acknowledgment of the mer
e es of God, experienced by ns as indivi
duals, and as a people, during the last year.
'To many of us the associations that cluster
abeut, and the memories awakened by the
•words Thanksgiving Day are most delight
ful. .It used to 'be the choicest and most
joyous day of the-year, whose return, even
at tbeexpenseof long and difficult journeys,
■would bring together the widely scattered
members of the family circles, aud once
more visibly, unite all tne links in the chain
of lelationship/from the great grandfatker
down. There was a conscientious aud full
attendance upon the public service, aud if
■ on this account, the old meeting bouse be
■ing so laraway, a little waiting Tor the great
event, the dinner, became Heedful, even
that uvas not deemed a vary heavy *erosß.
And then, what happy companies were
gathered about what burdened table. There
wt-sandi gbngof hearts. Every eye beamed
'-with'gladness, ead every tongue was loosed.
' •Some of the marked characteristics of such
-occasions are passing dway; but the ob
.-servance of these days set apart for giving
i thanks ought never to cease. It would ba
well-if we migbt now realize how base a
- crime is.ingratitude. The using of a mouth
.always to. eat, and never tor saying grace l
< ibe reachingiortb of hands al ways to grasp’
-and .never lifting them up to bless. . We
• aught to have both an inward sense, and a
‘disposition to make outward acknowledg
ement of benefits received. We should be
<grateful for this-added measure of life. Are
we? For reason sound and regal, are we?
Sbr all the varied gentleness of our Father’s
dealing, are we? For ourinstitutiohs, laws,
and religions privileges, which are
the unit of -the blood of martyrs, the tears

peaseful and bloody, and all the varied ex

Creator deems best. -Feeling this there will
inevitably be a union with true thanks
giving, of prayer. Then, when our very
rejoicing makes more 1 earnest onr pleading,
when the greatness of oar blessings teaches
‘the grea mess-of our seed, and the remem
brance of mercies turns our faces towards
the giver of them, are we prepared to feel ,
the force of the iact -that a .nation, has. so ■

and thatits prospect of stability grows more
or.ieBB bright, just in proportion as it mani
fests reverence for the law of God, and a

What is the source of our vitality? In

■doth and ashes, not having grace enough to
manifest a spirit of thankfulness for being
humbled, which, if the work had been more
thoroughly done, would have been far them
the beat blessing. Without doubt, even if
this nation shall endure to the end of time,
as-we trust it will,the great rebellion will
prove to have beSn the pivotal fact in its
history, -With such inevitableness as ap
pears in the quiet, grand working of the
laws of nature, all the influences of the pa-t
tended toward this conflict; and from this
.point all. our future is to take shape. It was
no ordinary crisis. Such a spectacle the
world never saw before. By it was afforded
a magnificent opportunity of rectifying mis
takes, ot lawfully removing that wbicn had
■cursed us, of inakiDg speech free, and the
Bible free, and .slaves of passion, of preju
dice, of human task-masters ail alike free,
and of reorganizing the shattered ele
ments of society, so that hence
lorih we might be a homogeneous people,
haviDg common sympathies and a common
aim, when it was seen to be impossible to
avoid thestrife,when the hoar of trial came
and the fruits of many generations were
to be saved or lost on the field of battle,
how inspiring was the response to the
earliest note ot alarm. The fused indigna
tion of all the people against treason;
the shouts of loyal fervor, whose echoes
ran from east to west and west to east,
across the comment; the deep and sac red love
of country that was as a fire in the hearts
of men—these we took to be the pledges and
tokens of a coming redemption. We were
P r °bab)y. too muen inclined to think that
the end of actual fighting would be the eml
ot all strife. Bnt we .have learned that de
cisions reached on battle-fields were hot
final, but only preliininary. Smee the sur
render of rebel armies and the mustering
out of the loyal bosts.onr feeliDgs have beeu
those of miDgled disappointment, shame
and hopefaiiiess. There is as to the preaeat
aspect ot a nation affairs, a dark side and a
brighter side.
Look first at the dark side. If we
could have looked only a little
way into the future, by the death of oar
mar jred President, a weight of anguish
■would have been laid upon heavy to be
borne. Most mercifully was the knowledge
, 6 J ea * nature of his successor then
hidaen from us. As to the man who might
have filled a place in the hearts of his coun
trymen second only to that which Abrohatn
Lincoln will iorever occupy, but little nee 1
be said. He has Bpokeu for himself, and of
himself,and the historian of the-e times will
doubtless do justice to his selfishness, his ur
, ro.uanee and his perfidy. The first is intense,
| the next is marvelous, and the last is ui
; famous. He who should stand as the expo
nent of the very highest truths and noblest
! idear; who should m every lawful wayan
i ticipate the will of those who fought for
I liberty and saved their country, is now the
staff on which every man leans who would
gladly trample the old flag under foot. The
hopes of buch centre in him. They go to him
for comfort. They ask him for aid in the ae
coDQplishmeDt of nefarious designs. jßat £
nave no taste for rehearsing the long cata
logue of his shameful acts. Before the war
closed, it was well said, with respect to pro
minent, intelligent traitors, "those who have
lallen into the disloyal state,can now return
to their country, but they mast do it soon.
To come back into the range of its honor
and love when the day of trial is over, is im
possible—then it is too late—the gate is
shut.” That was and is true. There are
some men; leaders in the South, who, to the
extent of allowing them to enjoy again all
J^ e of citizens, ought never to be I
trusted, _ K°t zf they promise, well? No.

pentance even cannot make void the
necessity of inflicting ; deserved pun

rebellious^ spirits can be warned and law
be magnified. But how have these men
been treated,’ and where are they to-day?
Are ! hey reaping as they have so wn? Anv
farther than their vexation and disappoint
ment are concerned, and the pecudiarv
losses incident to a state of warfare. are

of government? Jefferson Davis, with his
ianiny, ih comfortably keeping bouse ,at
Nortrets Monroe. The leader of-the rebel'
forces m the field sits as president of
a college where young men are being
trainee lor active life in this most critical
period of our history. • Under such instruc
tion, and as a result of it, what will be the
nature of Uieir political ethics—how deep
will be ibeir loyeof country, and whatno
tfons will they entertain as to the sacredness
ot an oath? How many others fill the high

by those who fought with and under them.

if.old that the moral sense of this people
has been, and is being daily outraged, in
that these men were not hung or at'east,
were not expatriated. It is the conviction of
the purest, gentlest spirits iff the land, that
such justice would have been merev. To
a low sucb men to traverse theland, and by
their unlimited freedom of action and of
speech, to proclaim that it is not dangerous,
or disgraceful even to be a traitor, is itself
a folly arid a crime. By no principle can it
he right thatsuch a thing shonld be. The -
pardons granted have not been baaed on
any cnuleeeionof sin. Unrepentant rebels

I / Remaining unpunished they Have'
ffttwn bold and iusolenfc, , Bv a great
, *tuount_ iof indubitable testimony it isj
! shown that throughout that South their in-
Htrence is antagonistic to the Union people
and Union sentiment. It wasseSted of a
i promment officer, who appealed before the
Reconstruction Committee, “Suppose the
military power of 'the Government is with
drawn from the rebel States, so that they
would apparently have perfect liberty to
secede from the Union, wcrald they or not
again attempt to set np the so-oalled Con
federate Government?” His answer was,
I think this: that if they thought they
could succeed by tearing down the United
: States flag to-morrow they would do It,” A
i yifginia Judge testified,-“lt'would be per
fectly idSe to think of calling a jury in my
State that would convict a man of treason.
They regard every man who has committed
treason with more Tavor than any man
who has remained loyal to the govern
ment.” Even the Vice-President of the
Confederate states, regards the conclusion
as too humbling, that by a treasonable
withdrawal from Congress, he has forfeited
any civil or political rights or privileges;
does not allow at all the necessity of pro
riding adequate safe-guards for the future,
before restoring the insprrectiouarv States
to a participation in the direction ofpnblic
rfflairs, and With the greatest assnrauce
asserts, that their simple abandonment
of the attempt to secede, left them im
mediately in their former practical
relations with the federal government. A
man walking by yonr side, with murder in
his heart, lilts bis weapon against yon, the
falling blow is arrested, and his purpose
. for the present-defeated; therefore he isto
be trusted, and resumes at once his former
relations with yon. We need not wonder
at any mental blindness, or any. warping
of judgement, after that. The permitted
inculcation of such a theory of government
which amounts simply to this, tbatitmayif
possible preserve its own existence, bat hav
ing subdued, has no right to punish its ene
mies, has borne itsown fruit—namely, mas
sacres, burnings, whippings, the crushing
out of all loyal sentiment, and the ostra
cising of all loyal people. The state of af
fairs in the South has been growing worse
and worse. The old bitterness is increased,
and old prijudioe intensified. There is sor
row and sname because failure, and no
hearty submission, .
But there is brighter side. Disappoint
ment has not killed hope. The darkness
has not shut ent all light. We have in the
first place to thank God for such a Congress
as we had. It stood between u« ana the
pit into which the President wonld have
had the people ail follow himself. Perhaps
by his unseemly eagerness to gain the fa
vor of those whom he had so bitterly de
nounced, some of the members of Congress
were shamed into the manifestation of an
apparent fixedness of purpose to save some
of the blessings laid by the war at oar
feet. But there were more, constituting a
i noble band, in whom we trusted, and were
j not deceived, who, if they did not accom
! plish all that some desire, did at least pre
| veßt the consummation of evils that were
I projected. Their stability against the pres
i sure brought to heir upon them; their
patience under insults, and the moderation ;
of their counsels, as expressive of a dls- i
passionate judgment, are worthy of all con- !
sideration. They deserve the gratitude of j
fnur country men,and bonorfrom the lovers ■
o, liberty the world over. The future will j
late care of their fame. •
Again, I may mention another cause j
thankfulness. I do not refer to the tonr t
itself, but to its effects. It was a singula r j
journey, taken to pay respect to the memory j
ot one whose name will never be written ■

inesDxious call, "Will ye not sustain my

. pie with a volume of tone, as when in the
Alps, an avalanche thunders down the
mountain-side, or as when the waters of the
broad sea roll in, and beat upon their rocky
: barriers—four hundred thousand times. No.
Will he who sits in the White; House hear
■ and take heed ; or will he continue to resist
and defy a will thus expressed? If votesmean
»DjthiDg, the voice of the .nation is that
Congress shall make laws, and the Presi
dent must execulethem; that the rebellious
Stales are not yet entitled to participate
in the law-making power of the Govern
ment; that, having failed to perform their
duties, and baviDg voluntarily relinquished
iheir rights under the Constitution,
thiir conquerorshave the right to impose
certain conditions, and to demand specific
guatantees, aud that these should be such
as to leave as little doubt as possible re
specting future prosperity. The supposition
that the North is disposed to' oppress * the
South is most clearly absurd. Had revenge
ful feeling existed it would have aDpeared
before this time. There has been shown a
wondertul magnanimity and forbearance
lowards those who engaged actively in the
rebellion. ADd if the strictness of the terms
,to be made with them increases they may
fir.d in their own condnot; since their ar
mies surrendered, the reason.- We desire to
have that, dime’miich shallbe the best thing
for the whole country. They do not have
such a desire. We sympathize with the
South in its devastated condition. But would
cot the South rejoice if some foreign foe
might devastate the North? We want to be
proud of the privilege of saying that we are
Americans; they, that they are ,Georgians,
or Alabamians, or Mississiippians. We have
more of the spirit of nationality; thev. still
of sectionalism. It is folly to ignore
these facts. They show what one great
%.. namely, that the men of
the South be caused to feel that it ia their
privilege to be primarily citizens of a conn
try, and secondarily, citizens of a State We

cians shall be both puzzled and terrified
This is not a time for plotting find making
compromises, but for keeping step with the
providences of God. This war must be re
membered as being distinot in its nature
from ail others. By what is done now we
must put the brand of everlasting infamy
on this unprovoked assault on the nation’s
life. -We must keep the memory of the
fallen sacred. There is mourning in the
South as well as in the North; but though
our hearts overflow with pity, we have no
right jo lessen the bitterness of -that mourn
ing i by a tacit false admission,i that the
rebel soldiers who sleep now in their graves
were made by their deeds as noble as the
loyal: Let it go down to posterity, even to

At (he beginning of the war Southern pa
pers testified that the institution iof slavery
is a tower of strength, / particularly in the
present crisis, anil really ODe or the moat
elite.ive weapons employed against the
Union by the South. The Idea was that the
blacks could carry on the agricultural pur-
and ftod the whitesin.ihe .army, and
leading men there declare that the enlist
ment of negro troops by the United States
was the turning point in tbe rebellion. In
tb e wan ter . of. 1864. .8,000 colored soldiers
made a successful charge upon some rebel
vorss in front of Richmond/ *‘A. few mo*'

’ Vj found as I, guided my hopse lest he
should tread on those sacred bodies, that
in tiiat pool of carnage lay 646 dead bodies
of my colored soldiers, with their faces up
turned to heaven in the sunlight, and I
swore; an oath that ‘my right hand should
forget her cunning, and my tongue cleave
to the roof of my mouth,’ if I ever failed
to insist upon justice to the race of those
, men who had laid down their lives fighting
I for the' maintenance and support of a
; country which had been to them oiily
one, of bondage and slavery, but whlcu
should have beenoheof freedom and right.”
Is ihere a man who, under like circum
stances, could have failed to make such' a
vow? But there is a principle of justice and
ofright on which, without the inspiration of
such a scene, we should all plant ourselves.
It seems to me that just as God held us; face
to face with the duty of emancipation,' and
troubled us by defeats till it was performed, !
so now is He holding us face to face with
the duly of granting equal rights, and till
ibis is done we shall «ee no good prospect of
permanent restoration and peace. The
Southern States, advised by their Governors
i and chief men, and instigated thereto by the
course of the President, have pretty gene
rally decided notto accept the Constitutional
Amendment. Bet this put an end to half
way measures. Bet ub not be so needlessly
dull of comprehension, as not to perceive
that there can be no safe and just reorgani
zation of society in tbe Soath unless every
loyal citizen there has a share in toe mak
ir g and execution of the laws. Bet Con
gress, abont to assemble, say that in no
Btate where its jurisdiction in this matter
extends, shall a black man be prevented
from voting for any reason that wonld not
equally prevent a white man. Bet us do
cur part in making such a voice from the
North heard, as to impel our representatives
to this height of achievement.
