People's Names.
A few weeks ago, Ticknor & Fields, of Bos
ton, pnbliihed a thick octavo volume, entitled
cc Suffolk Surnamem."* The author, N. I.
Ilowditch, pleasantly dedicated his book fc To
the memory of A. Shmt, s the Father of
American Conveyancing,' whose name is as
sociated alike with my Daily Toilet and my
Daily Occupation." To account for the title
of the work, we may mention that Sunlk is
a county ha Massachusetts, consisting of Mb
city of Boston, and the small adjoining town
of Chelsea and its various subdivisions. The
early English settlers introduced at once a
Registry of Deeds, recording bind-convey
anwss,'and. a Probate office, containing the
entire settlement of the estates of deceased
persons. The Register now numbers 736 vol.
tunes, of which are preserved except two
volatiles (for the years 1766, 17684 lost in
Caw*, during our Revolt:Won. Mr, Bow-
Bitcb, from the completion of his law-studies,
took; to the specialty* examining titles to
reat§statiew. and accumulated fifty-five auto-
graph- folio volumes, of 600 pages each, of
to of Suffolk titles. He also had an
alplabetical list of all whose estates were le
.
dly incumbered since 1831. Altogether, the
itch collection contains alphabetical in
dicei, to the extent of three thousand pages,
Of names of parties , who had been concerned
in legal matters from tire settlement of the
Country. It also contains numerous other
names, from England, as well•as from districts
in this country. Various Directories, supply.
ng an immense quantity of surnames, have
pain drawn upon.
/A 1857 lir. Bowditch print4d, for private
diatribution, a few copies of a collection of
surnames, prepared almost:exclusively from
his own volumes of Ropords and the works in
Lihrary. It was kindly noticed in c. Bonn
hold Worda,? and, much extended, was re-
ptedneed in 1858, when the author only claim
etibr it=tribe conolOred as Directories Di-
gested ; or the Romance of the Registry." A
third edition; which we are noticing now,
his just appeared, and is seven times the sine
of that of 1867. or the second edition 800
copies were printed; the new edition is limit
ed to 2,000, which, we venture to predict, will
speedily be exhansb3d. Mr. A. Shutt, the dedi
catee, was a conveyancer Who flourished in
the year 1626.
Since the publication of the new edition,
the author, at once painstaking and genial,
has ceased to, live. The following autobio
graphical extract, from his preface. dated
Brookline, Massachusetts, is, •therefore, not
without interest:
- I will olmolnde with a her words of pprsonal
explanation. Lwas bora in-1805; 'Of vigorous
framed anttlib habits, I enjoyed for fiftyjearit
uninterrupted health. During thesummer months,
I seldom emitted a daily swim in Charles ricer;
and the coldest weather of winter rarely induced
me to resort to an outside "garment. In 1835, on a
bridal tour, I visited Niagara, and swam across
that river, below. the Falls, on two successive days ;
and once, when the thermometer wee at zero, the
gentlemen who had gathered around the fire in an
insurance aloe in Breton, proposed, as I entered
the room, to subscribe to boy me an overcoat, be
cause' as they raid, it made them cold to look at
me. At , fifty, however, I- ceased to be a young
man ; and my dress was no longer such as to exert
a chilling influence over my friends. In February,
1858, I slipped upon the:ioe, but did not fall; and
I supposed that I had escaped with merely a slight
psio, and the laugh of the byetanders. I had,
however, blared the head of the thigh-bone'; and
the result was a gradually increasing lameness.
-In- June, I removed to my summer residence in
Breekline. Here, in as apartment Curtained by
forest trees, I sat day after day, week after week,
a prisoner; my sole ocroupation being the collec
tion and arrangement of the materials for the pre
meet edition,
and the laborious preparation of the.
Index. On August 2, a visit made by my at
tending surgeons . I arose to resolve them; and in
jefort. to Open the drawer of a email wrltiug
,talsled, which was partly behind me. I pulled it out
so tht-IMIU-1n the door. From this slight

oeived every alleviation which science could sag:
gest, or kindness of family and frieuds bestow;
but my bodily pain and weariness Boon made some
fixed employment almost indispensable. I ao•
eordingly commenced the printing of this work, in
the autumn of 1859 ; and it has enabled me to at.
taro a state of cheerful dissomfort."
Were this an indifferent book, instead of
being exceedingly the reverse, the author's
death would induce us to mitigate any sen
tence which, as a critic, it should be oar duty
to pronounce. But, indeed, 4 ‘ Suffolk Sur
names" is a curiosity of literature, affording
much information, and written as gaily aa if
the author were not suffering great bodily
pain while working at it. Moreover, it is one
of the best printed books within our know
ledge, the typographical artists (John Wilson
and Son, Boston,) actually having here stir
passed the chefs• d'aterre of the famed River
side press.
The Origin of names is naturally first dis
cussed in this work, and Mr. Bowditch says:
cg Every name, no doubt,, originally had a
meaning, or was first assumed or imposed from
its real or `:apposed fitness, from some acci
dental circumstance, or from mere caprice.
Each individual is distinguished from his fel
lows only by his name. Ent for this system,
history and biography could scarcely exist."
Christian names may be 'called fortuitous.
The surnames ca originated later in life, after
the character and habits of the individual had
been formed, and after he had engaged in
some permanent occupation, trade, or pursuit.
They were given by the community in which
he dwelt—by enemies as well as by friends."
John Smith, or Thomas Taylor, or Stephen
Butcher, or Hugh Carpenter can easily be
traced back to artisansbip, trade, or calling.
English surnames sparsely existed before the
Norman Conqueld, but did not become gene
ral until two or three centuries later.
Mr. Bowditch gives some curious and amn.
Sing specimens of Christian names. He men.
dm that Lord Cake declared more than one
to be illegal, and mentions numerous great
men who'were satisfied with one. We could
extend the list. George Washington, Israel
Putnam, George Bancroft, Washington Irving,
Benjaminptunklin, John Locke, John Hamp
den, Oliver Cronriell, John Churchill, (first
Duke of Marlborough,) Arthur Wellesley,
GeorgeDanaing, the two William Pitts, Henry
Broughton, John Dqden, John Pym, Algernon
Sydney, Robert Peel, Alexander Pope, Wal- I
ter Scott, Thomas Moore, Alfred Tennyson,
Charles Dickens.. On the other hand, many
illustrious or eminent personshave had double
Christisi names ; but Mr. Bowditch has no right
to count in Lydia Huntley Sigourney among
these, for, her second ,ia really her maiden
name, and, in England, if Miss Lydia Huntley
had married Mr. Sigourney, her married sig
nature, as Lydia Sigourney," would have aC
knowledged the total absorption of the maiden
name. Thus, Harriet Beecher Stowe really is
only Harriet Stowe. American ladies, affect
ing the French fashion, frequently preserve
their spinster before their marriage surnames.
It is equivalent to Julie de Roinana ale Julia
Smith.
Two Christian names, so general in Ameri
ca, are comparatively rare in "the old conn
try.". The duplication is comparatliely mo
dern. Nearly all the great men of our Revo
lution bad only the single Christian name.
Out of our seventeen Presidents, only three
had two Christian names, viz : John . Quincy
Adams, William H. Harrison, and James Knox
Polk. Mr. Bowditch; on noticing double
names, overlooked the fact that the Romans
called a thief ci homo trium literarum! ) (a
man of three letters,) and Plautus introduces
the words into one of his plays, thus :
Ton' trinm morainal home
Me vituPeral? Far.
In a note to cc The Fudge Family in Paris,"
Thomas Moore records that Lord Clare, for
merly Lord Chancellor of Ireland, gg had a
curious theory about names. He held that
every man with three names was a Jacobin.
His instances in Ireland were numerous—via

"When Mr. Bowditch states (p. 20) that
"Hyde Park was planned by Decimus Bur
ton," he is in error. Mr. Declmus Burton,
who is still living, partly planned Regent's
Park, as late as 1812, but Hyde Park was
laid out as far back as the reign of Charles
the Second, two hundred years ago.
There are about 30,000 English surnames.
Mr. Bowditch here notices about 10,000—
chiefly those considered most striking and
curious. Many names are derived from life—
many, from death. Belgrave is the family
name, of the Marquis of Westminster. Names
are derived from love and fear—many have a
hoggish origin-4inch as Bacon. A young pig
is called shote in England, and Rufus Choate's
surname was probably a corruption. Ho
genii the painter, drew his name from the
swinish race. So did Oily Gammon, the too
clever ; attorney in Warren's "Ten Thousand
a-Year." Many names are remarkably short,
such as Poe, Dix, Dee, Kip, Pyre, and Lee.
Many are extravagantly long; such as Mc-
Gillicuddy, Fienkenfleugel, Partheimuller,
Carrayannapulo, etc.
Passing a chapter upon Opposite surnames
contrasted, and two upon-Peaullar surnaefies
grouped together (in which Dr. Doisneau! Dr.
Maghm are erroneously set down as New
York authors) we meet a dissertation upon
English surnames, in which it might have
been mentioned, but is not, that Pickwick
was a name not invented by Charles Dickens.
We are old enough to recollect, before the
Great Western Railway was made in England,
that the mail-coaches from London to Bristol,
through Bath, were ran by Mr. Moses Pick
wick, whose name was inscribed In large gold
letters upon each door. In the thirty-sixth
chapter of The Pickwick Papers," when
the party is going down to Bath, Sam. Weller
notices, cg Yes, but that aint all," said Sam.,
again directing his master's attention to the
door, " not content with writing up Pickwick,
they puts Moses' afore it, which I call add
ing insult to injury, as the parrot said yen
they not only took him from his native land,
but made him talk the English langvidge arter
yards." Bnt this is not the place for showing
how attentive Dickens is to detail.
Some surnames are military—such as Mr.
Gunn. Some are naval. Mr. Bowditch enu
merates many graceful names among us, as
well as a vast number which are quaint, odd,
expressive, or ludicrous. There are surnames
from heathen deities; from heaven and hell;
from saints and martyrs; from angels and
fairies; from clouds and stars; from man and
Baits of man. There are men with female
names, such as Mr. Maddam and Mr. Libbey,
and vice versa. There are names from mental
qualities, (Cardinal Wiseman, for example,)
from 'bodily peculiarities, from relationship
and affection, from age, from nations, from
'countries, from towns, seas, bays, harbors,
and rivers. •
Articles of dress and ornament have sup
plied proper names, and a great many are de
rived from animals, birds, fishes, insects, and
reptiles. Mr. Bowditch quaintly says, " The
Bible informs as that man originally gave to
the beasts of the field and the fowls of the
air their names. The debt has certainly been
repaid in these later times : they have given to
man all their names back again." Some are
disagreeable enough. No wonder that Aaron
Bedbug, of Montgomery county, Kentucky,
proposed to change his name, in May, 1857,
—probably before marriago—for what lady
could think of sleeping with a live bedbug?
The face of Nature has been ranoacked for I
names ; trees, fruits, flowers, and other vegit
tation have been pressed into the service to
make up our human nomenclature.- The ele
ments have contributed their quota, as well
as heat, cold, fuel, and the points of the com
pass.- While the Park Theatre existed in Hew
York, what a finit-rate restaurant did Mr.
Winddust keep i Thu Seasons, time, numerals,

cing, colors, society, edifices, parts of 'build.-
trigs, sive ennainernuktenale, trird
tare, the inside of houses, streets, utensils;
tools, mathematics, logic, literature and law
have given surnames to man. We learn (p.
336) an anecdote of two Boston lawyers, Lord
Lyndhurst and the Hon. Jonah Quincy, lite
President of Harvard College. Both are in
their eighty-ninth year, and Mr. Quincy, re
cently elected a member of the Massachusetts
Historical Society, mentioned on that occa
sion that the same nurse syccessively attend
ed upon the mothers of Lord Lyndhurst and
himself, who were confined (in 1 772) about
the same time. Since> Roraulue and Remus, I
there has probably never been a more remark
able pair of nurslings. Money and thrift, and
their opposites, have given surnames, as well
as charity, commerce, navigation, dignities,
offices, trades and occupations, (very largely,)
products and objects of trade, eatables, horse
manship, locomotion, games, sports, war,
fighting, weapons, diseases, medicines, drinks,
intemperance, ejamdations. Many Christian
names are used as surnames; many names
have Saxon terminations, each with a distine.
tive meaning. Some names originated in de
fective orthography. Bellows, with a family
crest which represents water poured from a
chalice into a basin, is probably a corruption
of de Belle Eau. Foreign names get altered
by translation. Many home names are changed
by pronunciation. The English family name
of Chelraondeley, pronounced Chuneley, would
be spelt, in this country, as sounded.
Many words are derived from names. Mil-
thusian comes from Malthus, and expresses
the inhuman doctrine which his f; Philoso.
phy" taught. We have the Spenserian stanza,
the Byronic schoel of poetry, and soon. Kos
suth gives his name to a hat, as Sir William
Congreve did to roekets, and Wellington and
Blucher to boots. A Colt and a Bowie repre
sent the revolver of one, and the knife of the
other.
The volume concludes with a Supplement,
and an index of surnames, which !ills over
250 pages. The author's humor has periadnd
even this list of names. His last note, refer
ring to a child called Vonavia, intimates that
this Christian name was doubtless given be
cause the child had an eruption.
It is sad to think that Mr. Bowditch did not
live to witness the certain success• of this
book. With little trouble, we could write a
dozen articles upon anti out of it, without ex
hausting it. Let it remain, fittest monument
of the lamented anther's ingenuity, learning,
industry, patience, talent, and bonhomie.

STATZENNT OP MAYOR. BROWN. AS TO MS INTER
VIEW WITH NE. LINCOLN.
Benrinone, April 21, 71 o'olook P. M.
Meyer Brown received-a telegram from the Pre
sident °tee /Jilted States at 3 o'clock this (Sen
dai), morning, directed to himself and Governor
,Hielze i requesting them to go to Washington by
special train, in order to consult with . Mr. Lincoln
for the - preservation'of the peace' of Maryland.
The Mayor replied that Governor Rieke was not
in the city, and inquired if he should go alone-
Receiving an answer by telegraph in the Winne
tive, his Honor, woompanied by George W. Deb
bin, , John C. Brune, and S. T. Wallin, R qS., whom
he had summoned to attend him, proceeded at once
to the station.
After a aeries of delays they were enabled to
procure a special train, aboutlahalf past seven
o'clock, in which they arrived at Weerhiugton
about ten. They repaired at once to the Presi.
dent's hones, where they were admitted to an im
mediate interview, to which the Cabinet and Gene
ral Scott were summoned. A long conversation
and! disunion ensued. The President, upon his
part, recognized the good faith of the city and.
State authorities, and insisted upon his own. He
admitted the exoited state of feeling in Baltlinore,
and' hie desire and duty to avoid the fatal conse
quences of a collision with the people. He urged,
on the ether hand, the absolute, irresistible noose
eitylef having a transit through tho State for such
troop! as might be necessary for the protection of
the'Bederal capital
The protection of Washington, he asseverated,
with great earnestness, was the sole object of con
centrating troops there, and he protested that none
of the troupe brought through Maryland were in
tended for any purpose hostile to the State, or ag
grab/lee as against the Southern etatee. Being
now unable to bring them up the Potomac in seen
rity,
.the Government must either bring them
through Maryland or abandon the capital. He
called en General Scott for his opinion, which the
General gave at length, to the effect that troops
might be brought through Maryland, without go
ing through Baltimore, by either carrying them
from Perryville to Annapolis, and them,e by rail
to Washington, or by bringing them to the noisy
Renee, en the Northern Central Railroad, and
marching them to the Relay House on the Wash
ington Railroad, and thence by rail to the capital.
lithe people would' permit them to go by either
of these routes uninterruptedly, the necessity of
their passing through Baltimore would ee, avoided.
If :the people would not permit them a transit
thus remote from the oily, they , mast select their
own beat route, and, if need be, fight their way
through Baltimore,
_a result which the General
earnestly deprecated. The President expressed
his hearty concurrence in the desire to avoid a
collielon, mid said no troop!, should be ordered
through Baltimore if they were permitted to go
uninterrupted by either of the other routes sug
gested. In this disposition the Secretary of War
expressed his participation.
Mayor Brown assured the President that the city
authorities would use all lawful means to prevent
their citizens from leaving Baltimore to attack the
troops in passing at a distance ; but he urged, at
the urue time, the impossibility of their being
able to promise anything more than their best
efforts in that direction. 'The excitement was
great, he told the President; the people of all
classes were fully aroused, and it wee impossible
for any one to answer for the consequences of the
presence of Northern troops anywhere within our
borders. He reminded the President also that the
jurisdiction of the city authorities was confined to
their own population, and that he could give no
premium for the people elsewhere, because he
would be unable to keep them if given.
The President frankly acknowledged this dia.
catty, and saw that the. Government could only aak
the city authorities to use their best efforts with
respect_ to those under their jurisdiction.
The interview terminated with the distinct al-
Prance on the part of the President that no more
troops would be sent through Baltimore unless ob
structed in their transit in other direotions, and
with the understanding that the city authorities
should do their best to restrain their own people.
The Mayor and hie companions availed thera
pies!, of the President's fall discussion of the
questions of the day, to urge upon him templet
folly, but in the most earnest manner, a course of
polioy which would give peace to the country, and
especially the withdrawal of all orders content-
plating the passage of troops through any part of
Maryland.
On returning to the oars, and jut about to leave,
about 2 P. M., the Mayor received a despatoh from
Mr. Garrett announcing the approach of troops to
coakeyseille; and the exoitement consequent upon
it in the city. Mr. Brown and hie companions re
turned et ones to the President, and malted an kn.
mediate audience, which WAN promptly given. The
Mayor exhibited Mr. Garrett's despatch, which
gave the President groat surprise. He immedi
ately summoned the Secretary of War and General
Scott, who soon appeared, with - other members of
the Cabinet. 40 ,
The despatch was submitted. The President at
once, in the most decided way, urged the recall of
the roops, saying th at he had no idea they would
be there to-day; and lest there should be the
slightest suspleion of bad 'faith on his part in sem-
moning the Mayor to Washington , and allowing 1
troops to march on the city during his absentia, he I
dallied that the troops should, if it were practice-
bhp, be Sent beck at once to York or Harrisburg. I
General Scott adopted the President's viewe wane-
ly, and en order was accordingly prepared by the I
Lieutenant General to that effect. and , forwarded
by Major Bolger, of the army, who accompanied
the Mayor to this city.
The troops at Cookeyseille, the Mayor was as
sured were not brought there for transit through
the city, but were intended to be marched to the
May Boole, on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
They will proceed to Harrisburg, front m ore to
Philadelphia, and thence by the = Chesapeake and
Delaware canal, or by Perryville, as Major Gen.
Patterson may direct.

THE PULPIT_
Patriotic Sermon, by Rev. Wm. H. Bris.
Reported for The Press.]
Rev. Wns. H. Brishano is, the newly.appointed
pastor of thit Green.street Methodist Episcopal
Church, where it was anionneed on Saturday that
be would, on Sunday evening, preach on
tt
THE CHRISTIAN'S DUTY IN.THE PRESENT THAR
OP NATIONAL THOUBI.R. ”
Before oommencing his sermon, several appro
priate hymns were sung with fine effect by the
*heir, (one of the best conducted in the city, utkdev
the leadership of Professor Prins,) anti notices were
read, calling upon the members of the cougrega-
tion to meet for various patriotio purposes dorlrig
the coming week. The text selected as the basis
of his subject was as follows :
"Pray for the pease .of Jerusalem : they shall
prosper that love thee. Peace bo within thy walk
and prosperity within thy palaces. For my bre
thren and companions' sakes, I will DOW say,
Peace be within thee. Because of the house of the
Lord our God I will seek thy good."—Ps. CXXII :
6,7, 8, 9.
The discourse whioli followed was delivered
without notes, in an earnest, thoughtful learner,
whioh showed its author's deep sincerity in the
counsels he was uttering for the guidanoe of his
!look at this moment of trial and solicitude.
He opened With a brief historio reference to the
psalm itself. It bad, he said, been written by
David, the royal bard of Israel, and intended to be
soug byrhe people u they came up to Tertuialem
at their annual pllgriniages. It was In this reepeot
a symbol of their nationality, and in Ito oomposi
tiou David, ac a wire ruler, had simmoned the
roue° to sweep the chord of the popular heart. The
fltneee of applying the language quoted to the dr-
ountatances with which we are at present surround
ed was here dwelt upon. It wag, h e said, well for
us to stiengthon oar attachment to the symbol of
our ountry's honor, (the tricolor badge wee promi
nent among the congregation, worn alike by both
sexes), and, perfume, we Could not better enbeerre
this Abjeot than by giving due attention to the les
son contained in the language of his text.
The strong claims of " our country" upon cur
affections were neat eloquently portrayed. First
of, all, it was our home ; here was our dwelling
plaae ; here many of us ware horn, and here ware
centred many of the dearest associations of our
hearts. Here, under our own vine and fig trea t
we worshipped God according to the dictates of
our own conscience, none daring to molest or make
no afraid, enjoying, as we did, the protection of
a great and good Government; and whatever Mia
takes may have been made by political leaders,
where was the man who could not exclaim from
an honest heart, "My country, with all thy faults,
I love thee Mill !" Aye! in addition to all then,
we loved our country beeline° here was found the
moat owned eanotoary of oioril freedom in the
world. He did not believe that the Almighty had
reared these palaces of the soul (our bodies) from
the duet of a new-born world, and breathed into
man's nostrils the love of freedom, without intend
ing to gratify this universal desire. Freedom, he
contended, was man's moral birthright; and
it was here, in our own loved America, that
the genius of liberty had sought to work out the
most parted model of government and legislation,
founded upon principles of justice and right. It
wee for this reason that our national flag had be
come the honored beacon to the oppressed of every
clime and every nation upon the earth. The
speaker's allusion to the almost magical power of
our flag abroad, hitherto, in affording protection
to all who invoke it, was touobing and beautiful.
ljpdgrjt the Aungarian exile was enabled to bid
sueoessfal defiance to his foes, and under it, also,
the lowliest of our land until now, could in every
land proclaim himself a freeman, and command
respect. That flag, be continued, was the symbol
of our nationality, and while there was a heart to
cherish it, and an arm to defend it, he trusted%
God that It would continue - to be, which he hoped
would be forever. As the symbol of that power
which protected our liberties and defended one
homes, we should be earnest and faithful In hand

For all these reasons, he thought the language of
the text was adapted for every Christian heart
now, and should inspire prayer "for the peace and
prosperity of our Jertisalem."
Haying diem/seed the claims of eur , country to
our fealty and love, our duties , as rittsrenr were
next considered. The first of these was, loyalty
to the Government. This was enjoined In the
Psaln4 before him. Jerusalem was to Israel the
seat of their royalty ; and loyalty was the first go
litioal duty enjoined upon us in the Bible. And
now, especially, did the lesson of this text come
home to our hearts, for of all times in our history
the present hour made the strongest demand upon
our devotion as loyal citizens. This was a time
for sating promptly, without inquiring into whys
and wherefores. When mutiny was abroad on
shipboard, it was not for the sailors to ask qua&
time as to the cause or it ; their duty was womb
it at a blow. In this country covereignri resided
with the people ; the rulers were but the repre
sentatives and executors of the popular

tionalCharaoter, for the loss of this was a certain
preoureor of national ruin. Tho history of ancient
Rome was cited in illustration of this truth, and
it was said of this once mighty empire that the
ruins, now covered with the moss, of centuries,
taught a lesson more potent than ever fell from the
lips of her most gifted philosophers.
Again, the text taught us that the circa:cm/tames
of the hour demanded in a pre-eminent degree
the exercise of , piety towards Clod. Prayer was
the only religious exercise expressed in the text,
but it ombraoed also the exercise of faith, and the
acknowledgment of God's sovereignty. NOW,
more than ever, it became na to trust in God, and
to show that trust by manfully doing our whole
duty. To trust God merely, without making an
effort, he held would be to tempt God whilst oh
the other hand, to repair to work without trusting
in Him, would be to deny God. The " prayer for
Peace" should now be the , prayer of every lieut.
If that peace must come through war, it was for:
us, nevortheltiaa to pray far ream.' It it was to
come through privation and suffering, bat us, he
said, still pray that pantie may soon reign through
all the borders of our land. In short, the des
tiny of our land, he alleged, was now in the hands
of its praying people. livery man and woman
praying to God, wielded a power mightier than'
the sword. For this reason, it was said that the,
destiny of a nation depended len upon the whitlow.
of its ruleisthan upon the morals of the people.
The nave and example of our illustrious ,
Washington, were next gracefully introduced.., Al
. though, he said, he regarded the Bible as affording
the highest lessons of wisdom, yet we had in addi
tion to this the counsel of one whose words shOnld
be regarded an a sacred authority, alluding' to
the farewell address of Washington, which, he
said, ought to be written in letter. of gold and
instilled into the mind of every. child. But above
this, he wished all to.h.earken to the words of Him
who gave us Washington : " The nation that will
not serve Thad shall perish ; yea, those naliona chili
be utterly wasted. * * et If they will
not obey me, I will utterly pluck up and destroy
that nation, lath the Lord."
His conclusion !rim a pathetic appeal to those in
the house who were coon to be called upon to go
forth to 'make the richest saorilloe it was passible
for them to make upon the altar of their_eountry,
lie hoped that they would go forth relyingepos
God. They were not going against a hereditary
foe, but against a foe which, in by•gone days, hal
stood shoulder to shoulder with us in earning the
laurels whioh now enshrine the brow of our com
mon cma try. They were going forth, however,
with God's blessing upon them, to defend the right,
and it should nerve them for the contest to remem
ber that
" Thrice armed is be who bath his quarrel lust."
In every contliot, he warned them to be true to
their eelintrY, their religion, end their God; and
they Might be cheered with the reflection that
