Sentiment of the Text—" Division of sentiment in
conduetoas tvtiovernmont strikes at the Constitution of
the nation-Norma:lP
Rae MTV/ AUDIENeII "The causes of the ruin
of republican' liberty in the Roman heathen Com
monwealth, and the analogy between such events
and God's revealed method of dealing with 'sinful
nations," is our subjeot.'
In this 'subjeot, we shall mill attention, in the
first plane, to the four great monarchies pointed
at in the Bible. The Bible presents or with an
attraotive description of four grand Empires, or
Goirerninents, which areas prior to the Christian
era. The description is metaphorical. A meta
phor is a similitude. A representation of some
things and events by some other things and events
is one of God's methods of revealing to men tho
knowledge of Rio will. " I have used 'similitudes
bytho ministry of the prophets," •to.—lies. xii,lo.
The four empires whioh the prophet Daniel saw
were represented to his vision by "four groat
beasts which came up from the sea, diverse one
from another."—Dan vii, 3-8. The four boasts
were the similitudes of four great monarchies
which should follow each other in sticoession, and
each in its turn differ .from all the other three.
They were 4. diverse ono from another."
(1) ‘• Thofirst beast was like a lion, and had
eagle's wings " The lidri is the king of beasts, the
eagle is the king of birds This similitude do•
noted— '
1 The OtaLezek monarchy, and Nobuobadnets
oar its proud monarch.
2. The strcogth of the lion, and the swiftness of•
the eagle combined, denoted the surprising speed
with whioh Nebuchadnezzar flow upon his prey,
and the resistless force with which 'Re conquered
kingdoms. •
3 The " plucking of his wings" denoted that.
his speed was checked, for, his wings being,
" plucked," suddenly he lost the heart and wings:
of the Hon and the eagle and was changed to a,
man; "a man's heart was given to him, "
and:
then " he stood upon hie feet like a man;" he was
divtatod of his ferocious propensities. When God,
pine...o the wings of tyrants they cannot fly, they
have then to stand on their feet like men, which
shows they are put in fear, that they may " know
themselves to be but men." now soon can God
reduce the most raging tyrants to the condition of
imbecile cowards! in this reduced condition
they must "stand," and look on They dare do
nothing, and they can do nothing. Their " wings",
are "plucked." •
(2) "The second besot was like a bear" raised
up on one side, with " three ribs in its mouth, be-'
tween its teeth " This denoted the PERSIAN
monarchy.
1. Toe Persian monarchy succeeded the Ohal
dean.
2 Persia united with itself the Kingdom of
Media, which lay along the Persian northern
boundary.
3. The "bear raised up on one side" was !Un-.'
rative of Persia and Media united. Media raised
up Portia on " one side."
4. The three ribs, in the teeth of the boar,
showed the convene of the kingdoms of Assyria,
Egypt, and Lybia by Persia, who held the bones of
these nations yet in her "teeth."
5. The command to the bear, to " arise and de
vour much flesh," meant God's commission to
Persia and Media united, to invade the Chaldean
empire, and subdue it, and Babylon, Its Capital
atty.
G. The beer having metered the lion, prefigured
the subjugation of Ohaldea and Babylon, and the
division of t •at empire between the Jitedes and the
Persians, which took place in the reign of Bel
eh azzer. the grandson of Nebuchadnezzar—Elan. 5
28, SO, 31.
(3) The dart beast was like a "leopard." The
leopard is a milt, cunning, and equal wild beast.
This terrible creature represented the character of
the GRIZCILN empire.
1. This leopard had " four wings." Alexander
06 Great, who founded the Woolen empire,
moved with double the speed in his conquest of
nations to that which Nebuchadnezzar exercised.
The lion bad only two wings, the leopard bad four.
In six years, Alexander conquered the whole em
pire of Persia, a large additional portion of Asia,
all Egypt and hyria, besides making himself master
of India, and several other nations.
2. VAS leopard had "four heads," and " do
minion was given to it." On the death of Alexan
der, his empire was divided amongst his four chief
captains, SaLENCUS NICANOR bad Asia the Great;
PARDICCAS had Asia the Less; OASSANDaII had
Macedonia, and Provaxans had Egypt. These
were the " four heads" of the crafty and notice
leopard, Alexander the Great, and the heads
*Mob exercised "dominion" after his death.
(4) The fourth beast is anonymous. Re has
no name. There is no beast, nor feel, nor fish, nor
anything he may be eompared to. This beast
is not like any other creature. It is a nondescript
for strength, fierceness, mischief, mystery, and
cruelty. The most competent, impartial, and
learned writers, make this furious beast the sym
bol of the heathen ROMAN EIIPIP.S. The Roman
•Empire was the fourth great empire of the world,
and succeeded the Grecian. I cannot now enter
upon an exposition of the attributes of this fourth
beast, but will loavo its " dread," its " terror,"
its "iron teeth," its " brass nails," its " stamp:
ing" hoofs, its " ten horns," its "little horn,"
its " devouring" voraciousness, its big "month,",
its " reat words." and all the varieties which
u,..-oiner binlato, until
another opportunity is afforded for a more ample
delineation of this terrific animal, than can be al
lowed here. I agree with those who assert that
the prophet Daniel's "fourth beast" represented
the "Ancient heathen Roman Empire." I shall

1. TIM BIAS 00 RUB BOMAN EMPIRE.
The building of the city of Rome commenced,
as all agree, about 753 years before the birth of
Christ. Tbo PALATIRS lull, with a SlSSlhrude
castle on its summit, wss chosen as the site on
which to begin,the city, -he-inhabitants at first
were made up of mere banditti. Bottum was
.the founder and first king of Rome. During his
life the population increased rapidly,•and at his
death several adjoining hills were covered with'
habitations. Romulus was murdered by his se-,
Inters 716 years before Christ, having reigned
about thirty-seven years.
11. THE EXTENT OP THE HOMAN urnez
From the, foundation of Rome. under Romulus,
to the time of "Omar Augustus," (Luke 2,1,) the
population of Rome bad increased to over two mil.'
home. The empire, in its greatest extent, reached
Item the north parte of Britain to the South' parts
of Egypt, and from the western border of Persia
to the west coast of Spain, measuring from north'
to south about two thousand six hundred and sixty
miles, and about the same from oast to West. This
ineladed an area of over seven millions of square
miles.. The area of the United States Is not three
millions of square miles, hence not half the extent'
of the Roman empire. Taeitus, in his annals, in
storms us that Augustus, the emperor, set limits to
the empire, beyond which his nuccessors were not
to go. These limits were, the Atlantic ocean On'
the west, the river Euphrates en the toot, the'
- rivers Danube and Rhine on the north, 'and the
cataracts of the rile, the deserts of Africa,:
and Montt Atlas on the south. These bound-:
arias included within them the whole of
the Mediterranean sea, and the boat parte
of the then known world. There was added
to Ws vast territory; however, notwithstanding ,
the Wm., and Tentanient 'of Ananartre, under.
•Twasswy Bitola, north of the Danube ; antl-Meso-:
potemia and Armenia, east of the Euphrates. Un-•
der the Emperor CLAUDIVS, !tat Claudius re,'
tarred to in Acts 11, 28,) the omen Empire ex-.
tended to the south of Britain t and 'under Dour-
TIAN it extended to the riven Forth and Clyde, in
'Scotland. So bravo were the anolent Scotch (Ca
ledonians) in repelling the advances of the Roman'
•legtone, and In lighting for their liberty, that SX-,
venue, the most warlike Emperor the Renault;
ever bad, after granting them peace, built a wall,
of solid stone twelve feet high and eight feet thick,
with towers and fors at proper distances, to re-,
press the inroads of these unconquered and uncon
'parable foes. SPAIMANUS, in hie life of Sava
nna,' says : " This wall measured 80 miles." Eu-:
'tropics makes it only 32. The wall bad a rampart'
and ditch, " and reached-from Solway Frith, on'
the, west, to the mouth of the Tyne on the east, a
distance of sixty-eight miles " There is soma,
reason why the Empire of Rome should be termed
" all the world," (Luke 2,1,) and that Rome itself
should be called "carpus muna," the bead of the'
world. -The oily was built on seven hills, named,
the Palatine, the Quirinal, the Aventine, the (kilt,
Vinrinal,,Eiquiline, and Capitoline.,These seven
hills being inoltoled in Rome, sh was ealled;

The Roman empire wee governed first by SINSIB.
Seven kinge followed in succession, beginning with.
Reinnitts and ending with Tarquin the Proud.'
Their collective reigns occupied about 220 years.
Tho royal form of government being abolkitted,
the commonwealth form was adopted. Linde!' this'
form they had their laws administered by Co/MIMS, 1
magistrates of superior order, who administered
the laws in the city and " all the provinces."
Prizrons, another order of magistrates created by
the people, and who, Long and Pliny tell ne, were
next in dignity to the Commas. CBNIIOIIO, another
order of magistrates, who took charge of the num
bering of the people. Their office gave them great
power. Plutarch says, "The censorship le the
summit of all proferniOnts." Taeittis informs es
that "the chief ornament of nobility was to have
sprung from a asesorian family," And this be
multi, as Cicero informs no, it entered into the
office of Censor to " estimate the fortunes and in
eptiet the morals of the oitizene ;" hence their
power and influence over the nubile mind. TRI
BUNES OF TSB PEOPI.II.—The power of these Officers
was at first very small. They, however, increased
in influence. They oxen:lead their power, at the
first, by the authority of the people, who elected
them from their different tribes, henna Tribune.
The first way they exorcised their power was ex
pressed by the word Vero—i. a., I forbid it.
'Whoever disobeyed the veto of a tribune of the
people •must go to prison. 'They often opposed
magietrates, once and again pulled triumphal
generals 'out of their chariots, put off trials or
hastened them, when they otiose. They some
times hindered the mention de sentence; some
times they forced it. They, la short, exercised
emirethe power. They were particularly hostile
to the nobility and wealthy classes of moiety.
They fret showed this spirit by bringing before the
publics miserably for trial the chief of the patri
cians, CoareLexes. The tribunes of the people
very much resembled the leaders of our political
chartists, radicals,- Clubs, vigilant committees,
revolutionists, and demagogues of every kind, who
hope to work thenutelves up from beneath to pub
lie notice and power, through " the dear people,"
whom they seldom-fail to deceive, when they have
attained to the summit of their own wishes.
Alczoes were °fibers who chiefly governed in the
erection and care of the buildings of the city.
They wore assistants to the tribunes. Their power
inoveased and extended to the ears of " public
buildings, temples, gods, theatres, baths, ague.
ducts, common inwore, public reticle, baths,,
markets, weights, measures.". They inspected the
things exposed to sale, and, " if they were not good,
three( 'them into the river Tiber," which ran
throughthe city,. envenal says the Adilea "broke
unjust 'weights and measures;" Moore and Ovid
say "They limited the expenses - of funerals,"
ant Ltry ear, "They restrained the • averlea of
coaxers. .DIOTATOII9.-210,10 superior mule-
tratei 'were created to act in dairgerolo 'and criti
cal conjunctures, such as domestic insurrections,
dangerous Wars, widespread pestilence, calling the
publio assembly, creating holidays, instituting
games, holding trials, and for the purpose of de
termining how a nail should be placed in the right
side of the temple of Jupiter, by which the
number of years could be ascertained They were
called 'Dictators, because no appeal was idioms . /
from their decisions. DECEIIIIII29 —ln the year
of the city of Rome 299, three ambassadors were
sent to Athens, in Greece, to copy the famous
laws of fieLoa, and, a 8 Livy tells ns, to
" examine the ouatome and laws of other
Statist; of Greece." OA ,the return of the
ambassadors, the same ()lassie writer tells ue that
"ten men were elected from the Patrioians with
supreme power, without the liberty of appeal, to
draw up a body of laws." They were called Le
oemviri, from the Latin numeral adjective decent,
ten, and vit.', a mat!, ten men, and because they
eat to administer justice to the people, each of
them, every tenth day." They proposed ten L
ta
bles of laws, afterwards two other tables were
added, and then the whole were termed ‘• Malta
nuorment TABULARUIt," 1. e. the laws of the
' twelve tables. These twelve tables became the
rule of public and private right ever after,
throughout the whole Roman empire. The RO
tnans had several - other oivil offices and Agars,
as Qudestors, officers of the revenue and of the
treasury; Triumvirs Noeturni, who had charge
of preventing fires in, the night; Triumviri Ma.
?ignites, who - had charge of the mint; Triumviri
Capitales, who had charge of prisons, and were
judges of sieves and •of the lowest of the people,
ko. • This kind of government, sometimes ogled
a "Republic," sometimes a "Commonmeaffir,"
sometimes ...Veteran," sometimes " Patrician,"
and sometimes "Military,'! continued for nearly
five hundred years from the last of the seven
Kings. After this, Dionared4 was reestablished,
and the Roman empire was governed by sixty-five
Emperors, for 518 years. The empire came to its
end. 1228 years after the building of Rome, and
the Kingdom of Italy commenced under ODOACZn,
King of the Heruli.
IV. TEE CAUSES 01r TEE RUIN OF REPUBLICAN
LIBERTY IN TRE ROMAN EIIPIRE.
One cause of the ruin of publio liberty in the
Roman empire was the noted idolatry of the Ito
man people. They made gods and goddesses of
almost everything. Another cause was the noto
rious liceattousness of the whole population.
Another, their crying personal and social sins
committed against cash other—" covetousness,
maliciousness, debate, deceit, envy, despiteful,
proud, boasters," to , in short, they wore "filled
with all unrighteousness and wickedness " the
Rom. i, 22-32.
Another cause was, artfully employing the wealth.
of the republic to enslave it. Dionys. xxxviii,
land 7.
Another, leading men obtaining by bribery
from a corrupt populace what they desired, in spite
of the benate. " This contempt of the Senate,"
says Plutarch, "nearly terminated publio liberty.
It was a main cause of its ruin."
A further canes of the ruin of Roman republican
liberty was the secret coordinations of powerful and
ambitions men to exercise political Patronage over
the people. The combination of Pompey, Gamer,
and theme, is an illustration. The Roman pea
ple, by submitting to the usurpations or these
leaders, showed " they were prepared for servi
tude." Only the spirit of a nation can preserve
its liberty, and if the morale of a nation aro sunk,
the national spirit is gone!
Another cause of the ruin of Roman liberty
was the power of wealth. SALLUST tells us that
when " wealth, luxury, and avarice " predomina•
ted, " all ranks became corrupted ;" end especi
ally after the destruction of Carthage, the wealthy
plebeians united with the patrimens, and both
agreed to oppress the body of the people.
Into oppression is the ready way to promote rebel-
lion and civil war.
Another cause of ruin to the Roman empire
was the civil contests between the plebeians and
patricians for supremacy. The first civil blood
shed at Rome was shod by Opimius, a consul, who,
as Sax Ana? says, "slaughtered a great number of
the plebelans.":Prom this point the effectual ruin
of Roman republican liberty may be reckoned,
because ease the people began to use arms and vi
olence against each other, "the laws made by force
Were held valid.", That is mob-law rule.
The strongest party made their own laws.
Betrayal of trust hastened on the ruin of the
empire. BALI:SST again tells us, that " the faith
less and ambitious Mantua betrayed the people."
This demagogue first flattered, aid then betrayed!
A fair sample of the moat of demagogues.
LASTLY, from the time the first civil blood was
shed, " the tribes were henoeforth employed by
.1
leading men as the tools of their ambition ' The I
mob was paid for their work. Rverything was
done by force. Tbo leading of the people, backed
by the swarms of their mercenary Welton made
and abrogated the laws at pleasure, disposed of
public lends, conferred commands, gave away
provinces ; the assemblies of the people were con
verted into soenes of violence and massacre. and the
most daring always prevailed. At last Julius' Coma;
making &pretext of the violation of the power of
the tribunes, made war upon his country, and, by
terrible bloodshed and villainies, put an end to re
publican liberty, re-established monarohy, and by
force of arms placed himself in sovereign power
over the Roman Empire! He soon had the title—
" PATER ?ATRIA father of his country"—which
the Senate of Rome conferred on the farlateed
Comm, transferred to himself! And yet Julius
Cosset* wee not, properly, the first Roman Em
peror. We nephew, OCTAVIUS, after having de
feated Mark Antony and Cleopatra at the battle
of Actions, and reducing Egypt to a Roman pro
vince, was, by decree of the eanate, called to tho
imperial throne, with the title of Anal:rams
C.&eAR, and he was properly the first Roman em
peror. The city of Rome at this time, i. e., 27
years before Christ, measured 50 miles in eiroum
, ferenoe, had within her walls 463,000 men able to
bear arms, and a city population of over two mil
lions. At present Rome only measurea about eight
miles' in circumference, and hoe a population of
about 145.000 souls—about one-fourth the popula
tion of Philadelphia. " Alas ! alas! that great
city!"-=Rev. 19, 16.
V. WM ANALOGY Inane is DITWSSTi iycon SVISSTS
AND TSB BSYSALED =SOD OY SOD'S DEALIASS
WITH siltrur. NATIONS.
In this analogy wo shall first retail to your
minds a short summary of the liberty.deatroying
practices of the Roman people; then a summary
of the sins for which God enters into judgment
with nations ; next a summary of national mer
cies, and lastly the connection between national
repentanoe and the preservation of national mer
cies.
First—A short summary of the liberty-destroy
ing practices of the Roman people.
The liberty-destroying practices of the Roman
-people eoneleted mainly in their gross idolatry ;
their beaetlylieentiousness; their malignant mis
representations of each other; their proud bow
ing ; employment of wealth to enslave the em
pire; bribery of the people to induce them to act
in spite of the proper civic authorities ; secret
combinations of powerful men, to wield the power
and patronage of the Empire ; universal moral and
political corruption. They wore filled with all
unrighteonsness," do.; a union of the most wealthy
amongst the contending parties—the plebeians nod
the'patrielans—to oppress the people, by drawing
all power from the latter into their own hands ;
their frequent contests for power; their violence,
and shedding of each otheet4blood ; their wisp!.
moles ; their murders; their cruelties; their fear
ful oppreetions of their servants ; the betrayal of
trust ; their flattery of the people to obtain their
suffrages and then deceiving them, as lilari us did.
Finally, the people became the' tools of their fa•
vorite ambitions leaders, and at length all became
a prey to that ablest of military commanders
amongst the Romano—Julins Caesar. Thus Roman
republioan liberty, which continued from Tarquin
the proud, the last of the seven kluge, nearly live
hundred years, took refuge at last under the wings
of a military despotiem ! Let it now be observed
that every one of the practices included in the
foregoing summary is, in iMelf, opposed to rational
liberty. Inherently, " allnnrighteousness and all
wickedness" is determinately hostile to all sound
liberty.—Rom. 1, 29.
• Let ue now present a summary of the eine for
which God enters Into judgment with nations.
And in this place wo must carefully discriminate.
The sins of a nation provoking God to cot against
it must be aleirzner,. The people must bo parson
'ally tratestessors by active participation in crime,
or by doing nothing to prevent its commission.
' Alt, sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity;
a seed of evil-doers; children that are oorrupters ;
they have forsaken the Lord ; they have provoked
the holy one of Israel unto anger; they have gone
away backward. Yo will revolt more and more.
The whole head is sick, and the'whole heart faint.
From the sole of the foot, even to the bead, there
is no soundness in it, but wounds and bruises and
petrifying sores. Your, country Is left desolate ;
your cities are burnt with tiro; your land, strangers
devour it in year presenee," do —lsm. 1, 1 7.
Ponder, well these, seven torsos, and see the na
-1 tiOnal result in vane 8.
National sins must bo ants - irons as well as gene
ral. " When the land einneth against Me by tree
passing grievously, then will I stretch out Mine
hand upon it," Sco.—Ezek. 14, 13. litre are two
attributes of national sins. They must be general,
they must be grievous. Lot us give a brief sum
mary of national sins, as a sample ; Pride : Hoe.

Jet. 57. 13. Covenant-breaking: Bes.lo, 4 Per
jury Ezek. 21,23. Rehberg: Mal, 3. 8-9. Blood:
Book. 7, 23. , Apeetaoy : Jar. 2.13. Uncleanness :
Jer. 23, 10. Oppression : Job 35, 0. Profaneness :
Mel. 2,10. Lying: Peal. 63, 11. Divisions: lan.
11, 13. Hypocrisy: .1 . 13 a. 33, 14. Backsildings
from national primitivesimplicity : Dent. 32, 7-15.
Love of riches; Joph. 1, 18 Gross formality in
divine worship ; lea. 58, 1-5. There are many
other things enumerated amongst national sine,
but these may serve as a sample. Those sins found
in any nation aro grounds sufficient, if nationally
prevalent, to warrant God in calling any snob na
tion up for judgment. And the analogy between
these divinely-revealed national sins, and those of
the - annient Roman Empire, is In most cases very
remarkable.
We shall, in the next place, give a short synopsis
of the national amours, which national tins for
feit. A pure Gospel ministry: Mark, 16, 15.
Pure Gospel ordinances: Rob. 0, 10. Godly and
faithful discipline in all the churches: Job 30, 10.
Scriptural unity amongst all the tribes of God's
people, on essential, not disputable, notions : Peal.
133, 1, 3. Freedom from persecution: Acts 0, 31.
A , patriotic ' nd godly magistraoy : Neb. 6, 11, 14.
Peace in ail our borders : Isaiah 60, 18 Justice in
all our courts : Past. 80. 14. Learning in all our
schools: Isaiah 11, 0. Wisdom in all our depart
ments of State: Prov. 4. 7. Plenty flowing from
God's blessing on our labor, trade, and commerce:
Dept. 28, 8. Health in all our streets : Peal. 141,
13. Favor from neighboring nations : Isaiah GO,
6, 7. Freedom from snob peatilencee, famines,
and wars as desolate and debase a land : Peal. 91,
5, 8. These and such like blessings constitute a
people, a happy nation. These are atone of the
national mercies. forfeited by national sins.
r_We cannot dismiss this part of our subject with
out referring to the national mercies which God
has given to these United States.
The prosperity of this nation has risen to a
very wonderful height. The MUTED STAUB em
brace an area of nearly three millions of square
miles ; have already within this immense area
thirty three sovereign States and seven organized
Territories; have a sea-coast, measuring twelve
thousand fine hundred miles; have a papule.
lion of over thtrly•one mullions; have a national
revenue of over seventy ; have between
eighty and ninety thousand et:hoots, more than
five thousand academies , over two hundred and
twenty colleges and universities, over twelve thou.
sand churobea, and more than eleven thousand mi
niators connected with Evangelioal denominations !
This nation has twenty•sia thounad miles of rail.
road, and over five thousand miles of canal.
The number 'of farms is more than one and a half
millions; the number of cores under cultivation
is one hundred and thirteen millions. The annual
produce of Indian oorn is four hundred millions
of bushels. Tho number of bushels of wheat,
rye, oats barley, beans, potatoes, fruits, and roots
of all kinds, must be almost past finding out! I
cannot give the number, at any rate. The Invest
ments in manufactures amount to six hundred mil
lions of dollars. The value of the farms and farm
stook is five hundred -millions of dollars. The
worth o f the Internal trade Is also five hundred
millions. It requires twenty thousand miles to
measure the ten largest rivers of the United States.
It requires ninety thousand square miles to mea
sure the surface of the five greatest. lakes. Sixty
years ago the Union had something overuse hun
dred and seventy one thousand dollars in coin.
In MO the amount of oom has reached to one
hundred nu t 110213.
But, respected hearers, I close these statislios.
I will only add, hero, that the spirit must be ex
eeediugly sinful, and criminal to the deepest de
gree' which would seek to shatter such a nation
intofragtnonts, or have its own will to be the rule
of action ! But such a catastrophe cannot be per
mitted. Let us who aro called God's people main
tain the Constitution and laws of our country un
til peaceably and lawfully changed. Let an in
surreotionary spirit, and wild fanaticism, be as far
from us as sin is from holiness ! We shall now
give some careful discriminations in relation to
the making up of national sins, and God's methods
of punishment.
In those discriminations, it may be proper to
ask, In what way do sins become national? Must
rulers and subjeots ; representatives and repre
sented ; learned and illiterate; refined and barbs
roes—all commit the sante sorts of sins, and con
tinue to commit them until the nation's cup Is full,
to make sin to be national? The answer is, No.
How, then do sine brooms national? We have seen
that these two attributes must bo found, so as to make
it appear that the nation condemned is "laden
with iniquity "—namely, generality (tea. 15) and
grievousness. Bank. sly. 13 But, in addition. it
is very proper to define more particularly:
1. Whoa ministers of religion in prominent places
and conspleuous positions take a wrong course, the
infection is apt to spread to the whole body of the
people "From the prophets of Jerusalem is pro
fbnoness gone forth into all the land." Jer.
15. This does not mean that every individual in
the nation is corrupt, but that the generality of all
sorts have become profane and wicked.
2. When sin is searched out, and found to be very
general, grievous, and crying, the city, cities, or
nations found guilty are given over to deetruotion.
The cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is very great,
their sin is very grievous ;—wo will destroy this
Waco—the Lord bath sant us to destroy It." Gen.
18, 20, chap. 10, 13
3. When in fluentiallpersons singrisvousiy, suoh as
governors, representatives, ministers of religion,
magistrates and common people all combine to
defy and insult God, then they are carted with
God's curse "ye aro cursed with a curse, for
ye have robbed me even this whole nation."—Mal.
3,9.
4. What evil things to a nation, persons high in
authority do, the people of the nation may be
said to do, if they connive at them, and do not use
the power they possess to binder them. Thus the
nations of Israel wore several times brought under
national guilt, in whole or in part, because of the
wickedness of men in authority, whom the people
either supported in their crimes, or were silent
mu:morning them. " I will love them no mote, all
their princes are revolters." Iles. ix, 15. Israel
is given UV " because of the sine of Icreboant."
1 Kings, xiv, 16. The Lord would not pardon the
sins of Judah " because of the provocations that
litanassah had provoked God withal " 2 Kings,
xxi, 11-15 lot Manama was pardoned because
he repented, but the nation was not forgiven, be
cause it repented not, but continued to commit the
same sine. 2 Chron, =rill, 10-19 The eine of
Saul in violating the covenant with the Gibeonites,
brought a famine for three years upon Israel. 2
Sam. xxi, 1. Thus, what rulers do, may be said of
tbo nations they govern. Yet it is possible, after
all, that where punishments come from God upon
nations for the sins of their rulers, there is some
other guilt among the people, or private consent in
their hearts with their rulers' sins, which ripen
them for the judgment inflicted.
5 It is not necessary that people sin all alike in
order to bring down a national judgment. The
national cup may be filled up with various offon
cos, arising in various ways, from the people, in
different conditions and circumstances. The sins
of rulers and people in high life are usually more
secret and refined than the sins of common people.
The profane part of a nation sin enormously. Hence
this true distinction follows—" The sins of a re
fined ;people aro like streams of clear water im
pregnated with deadly poison, the water is appa
rently harmless; but the sins of the common peo
ple are like water polluted with thick mud ! "
Tho one class sinsgcnteelly, and says " Stolen wa
ters are sweet, and bread oaten in secret is plea
sant." Prov. ix, 17. The other class sins openly
and monstrously, like the surging ocean, "casting
up mire and dirt." lea. Int, 20. Poisoned we
tars, though limpid, and waters made think with
mud, are usually oast into the same pit.
As to divine chastisements and punishments up
on nations, these things aro observable
1 Imponitenoy must be added to rebellion be
fore Go.l will proceed against a nation.
2. A land is not ruined unless ft continues to sin
after being warned.
3 National mercies are not forfeited by the com
mission of @in, simply considered, but as attended
with additional grievous aggravations.
4. Utter destruction comes not before lesser
judgments aro tried and found nnerieciessful. Amos '
iv, 9-13.
5 The greatest national sins will ho freely for
given upon true national repentance. Psalm
31-33.
And this brings up the last topic in the err amp
mont, which is the connection there is between
national repentance and the preservation of na
atrial mercies. There have always been great
displays of sovereignty in God's dispensation of
national judgments, and, indeed, of national mer
cies. The eine of multitudes are often passed ly,
as it were; and often He sends a judgment for a
few offences, yen, for even one, as in the ease of
Achan. Josh. 7, 1. It is not easy, at all times,
tojudge of national judgments God may afflict in
order to messy. Ho may take away smaller bless•
ings to make way for greater. He may destroy the
gentry to save the vulgar. Ho may shake the
body of a nation, so that all fear and tremble, when
Ile only designs to make the mass of the peo
ple (at least his own people) more alive ,to their
best interests. The judgment of some goes before
them, the judgment of others follows altar them.
" God is his own interpreter" of Ilis own modes
and reasons or nation.
Now, it repentance raves a nation front utter
destruetion, what kind of repentance is required?
Ai:fewer—lt is not the personal repentance titbit'
God requires in order to eternal life ; nor that re
pentance which God requires for the neglect of
performing plain duty; but the very eoope is,
euoh a national repentance, as will secure national
reconciliation with God, and prevent the removal
of national mercies. The prayer of Moses and his
intercession turned away the Wrath of God from
Israel. Exod. 32, 11-14 The atonement which
Aaron made canned the terrible judgment of the
plague to cease. Numbers 16, 46-48 The search
made for sin by Joshua,
and ite discovery, and hie
sanotification of Israel, including their repentance,
secured the defeat of their enemies and God's re
concilement to his people. Josh. 1, 24, chap. 8, IS.
The prophet Isaiah Says : "Behold the Lord's hand
is not shortened that it cannot save, neither is his
ear heavy that it cannot hear: but your iniquities
have separated between you and your God; and
your sins have hid 1118 face from you that he will
not hoar." Ism., 53, 1, 2. The sin which 01111808
eoparation between God and a nation must bo na
tionally repented of, and nationally forsaken. I
will not, my worthy hearers, detain you longer
with any detail of national sins, for which you
are thie day bumbling yourselves before God, but
simply exhort you, whether you can remember
your own sine and the nation's sins or not, to unite
with me in fervent prayer to God, in the name of
JUMP. Christ, our only Saviour, that he would par.
don the sine of this great, growing, and interesting
.nation, and save her from the ruin threatened.
And while we attempt to pray, let our minds and
hearts be steadfastly set upon the word of God,
which gives us the true (Creations and warrant for
prayer.
ES=
0, thou Almighty, self existing, omniscient, and
eternal Lord God! we presume to lift up our hearts
and eyes to Thee, in the name of Thy adorable
Son, our bord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Our
nation is in trouble, and our national, as well at
our personal transgressions, have called to Thee
for vongemmo. We would, O . Lord, endeavor most
humbly to confess our sine before Thee, as a na
tion, this day, and say our rulers, ourjudges, our
mighty men, our great mon, our riot' men, our
poor men, our minintere of Thy Gospel, our
churches, all our families, all our people in the
whole land, of every name and every pursuit,
have sinned against Thee. As a nation, we have
sinned against light and love, and law and grace.
We have shined against the loveliest, sweetest,
choicest, most plentiful, and varied temporal bless
ings, and against the spiritual and eternal bless.
lugs of Thy holy covenant, We have sinned
openly, publicly, privately, secretly, personally,
relatively, socially, nationally. We have broken
our national covenant and our religious covenant.
Wo have ran nearly mad after riohes, regardless
of Thine own word. Wo have lusted after
power Wo have labored with all our powers for
popularity and honor from men. Wp have ne
glected our duty to the fatherless, the orphan, the
widow, the hungry, the naked, the sick, the pri
soner and captive, the poor, the desolate, and the
oppressed; and justly, 0 Lord, mightest Thou have
reduced US to their condition. Justly, 0 our God,
mighteet Thou have taken the nation from us, or
us from the nation, and given it to our bet
tors, for our many and grievous sins.
As a nation, we would deplore oar ingratitude
to Thee. We have not been humble and thankful
es we ought to have been for the boundless pro
fusion of mercies, both temporal and spiritual,
which Thou host showered upon our land. In.
stead of profound humility, we have shown na
tional Rarer.. We have, as a nation, grown fat
upon tby bounty, and then, instead of pure grati
tude and thankful acknowledgment of thy fa
vors, we have, like " Jeshuran," " kicked " back
at our gracious beneflotor ! We acknowledge this
to be a base end debasing return for thy untold
goodness to us. Now, instead of being an affec
tionate, united, fraternal nation, as we ought to
be, Thy enemy, oh, Lord ! and the enemy of man,
hes managed to bring his attempt to reduce us as
notion to fragments, to a oriole! So now it Is
"Manasseh against Ephraim, Ephraim against
Manasseh, and both they together against Ju
dah, eating, every man, the ileeh of his own arm."
This, oh, God! Is not only man against man,
faintly against family, section against notion, but
it is tribe against tribe, the enemy knowing that
the reparation of our States, like tho separation of
Thy tribes of old, will coon render the whole an
easy prey to the common destroyer !
Eternal lather! God of infinite Mercy ! Thou
bearer of Prayer ! Thou grossly insulted, but yet
most compassionate Benefactor ! Oar prayer for
national pardon is to Tune, in the name of TEE
GRAND MASTER or REqUESTS, the LORD JESUS,
Thineown Son, and our own Saviour.
"Oh Thou that &indica in the heavens !" Oar
I oyes aro toward Tune. Our hope is in THEE.
Let apardon as long and as broad, as deep and at
high, as the extent of our guilt, whether personal
or national, whether of rulers or subjects, bo sent
down from Thy throne; and for the sake of .Instie,
be naiad upon ourdearly beloved, cur chosen, our
natural, our adopted nation ! Oh! our Father !
Remember the prayers, the tears, the sufferings,
the blood, the bereavements , the treasure this
nation has cost, and give her not up to reproach !
Thou Almighty Friend ! Compose our national
differences, unite divided hearts, disappoint the
expectations of the wicked, teach the nation an
effectual, lasting, salutary LESSON ; but save her
from internal rebellion, from external invasion,
and from the destruction of all Thou boldest dear
in the lend! Thou beet told us In our national
diotreosea to " take with us words and turn to the
Lord," ko. We do take words from Thy own
word, Oh Lord, nod pray Thee to " stir up Thy
strength and come and save us." We pray
Thee for Thy GREAT NAMESAKE, for the soko of
JASTFS ; for the sake of all Thy people and all Thine
Interests in this nation and in this world, to send
Thy Holy Spirit to the hearts of the whole popula
tion ; to " renuke the company of specimen," and
to " scatter Thou them that delight In war 1"

age to appropriate the most expressive words of other
!mosses, and after a while to incorporate them into
our own; thus the word Cephalic, which la from the
Greek, signifying " for the head," is now becoming
Popularized in connection with Mr. Spalding's great
headache remedy. but it will soon be used in a more
general way, and the word Cephalic will b ooo mo ae
common as Electrotype and many others whose dm
tinction as foreign words has been worn away by
com mon usage, until they seem " native and to the

names, viz: Symptomatic and Idiopathic. Sy mptomatio
Headache is exceedingly common, and is the precursor
of a great variety of diseases, among whirls are Apo
plexy, Gout, Rheumatism, and all febrile diseases. In
its nervous form it is sympathetic or disease of the
stomach. constituting sick headache, of hepatic. disease
constituting bilious headache, of worms, constipation,
and other disorders of the bowele, as welt as renal and
uterine affections. Diseases of the heart are very fre
quently attended with headaches; encomia and plethora
are also afreetions which frequently ocoasinn head
ache. Idiopathic headache is also very common, being
usually distinguished by the name of nervous headache,
sometimes coming on saddenly in a state of appa
rently sound health, and prostrating at once the mental
and nhysioal energies. and in other instances it comes
on slowly, heralded by depression of spirite or acerbity
of temper. In moat instance the pain is in the front
of the head, over one or both oyes, and eometimes pro
voking vomiting; under this class may also be named
Nettrailaa.
