Sabbath evening last, the time-honored Merry street Methodist Episcopal church was Comfortably filled to hear a "Memorial discourse," by Rev. W. H. Locke, A. Zit, pastor of that congrega hon. • gir. Locke ; was over three years Chaplain of the famous Eleventh Regi ment of !Pennsylvania Volunteers, com mended by the gallant Col. Dick Coulter. This regiment, it is well known, was one of the regiments of three months' men; and =continnedV in service until Lee surrendered.; Chaplain Locke has semi years , : of " hard service, and as few Chaplains have experienced. His excellent work, "The Story of the Regi ment," - shows very conch:l:direly: the character °tilde servicen In the army." To hear one who has had such a.tbrilling experience, 'Would very naturally attract , a large audience. • The discourse was carefully prepared ; with "fitly_.;chosen words," and_- in a style which gave evidence that the Chin lain had proper conceptions of the grand; event commemorated op •Satiiirday. Lessons of ituriction were ids() ern-. bodied in the scourse, which the: reverend speak r showed thattlm-hiuid• of God was eingtilarly displayed in our behalf. The discourse was based on the follow ing passage, from. the ,Psalms "Mei Lord lath done. great things for us, whereof we are glad." R,eferenee is made in the brief introductory remarks; to:the generops course of the people in their ; observance of "DeCoration Day," and to; the fact that Religion and Patriotism- are' wedded in undivorcable bonds. Love of country never conflicts with our love to God; and he ; who Is most loyal to Truth and Righteousness, is the truer lover of his country. • The chaplain argued that the Religion of the Bible approved of the embalming of the memory of the great and 'good, and it is right and prop. er that we should revere the mem ory of those who gave their lives for the nation's weal. He assumed that the grand results of that struggle, by which a country is freed from a great wrong,— a country triumphant over a great evil,— a country regenerated in thought, word, and deed; has come Up out of that bitter struggle wherein our kindred went down in death; and as we pause near to decorate their •green graves with the first flowers of Summer, the satisfactory present bandl,he large promising future, make tiled ay we celebrate oneof gladness rather than ofSorrow. The past ten -years of our national history—the most won nerful of any era of history since the world began -is too familiar to need even the briefest review. Its changes are in wrought, not only upon the faee of the country, but upon the hearts and con- i sciences of the people. That which future i I generations ;will lead with throbbing hearts, and souls all aglow with tire, our eyes have seen. .Deeds of heroic daring and devoted, patriotism, that shall eclipse all ancient story, were performed by our flesh and bleed. Chaplain Locke then sketched in brief, but•ln glowingwords, the materiaLthat' .the Lord .• ded for the.nation's redeumtiomin hour-af the -potential rawer ota, free sehoolanik free press as educators of, all classes and in preparing the masses for the battle of ideas; the grand achievements of science and mechanical skill in preparing aids for the aggressive steps of oar army, and other preparatory means by Providence. He contended that there was • something else needed that neither edutation; however liberal, nor ;; science, ' how ever exact, could impart- The war was not to be one of cOnquest, or of national aggrandizement.
