Hon.- (some of the sneci-il prjvideaces of mr Nations! history. A'l ancient NatHKis bad their legends of a gol-. den age, when their gods dwelt among them, and they professed to have received their peculiar insti u-' 'i-'ns direcly from them. It was the biast'.fthe Jews tbtt they were ti id's people and tbat their history was a succession of Divine manifes tations.

It was no more a matter of chance than mat the acorn should grow into an oak. The same divine eve guided that frail bark through the waves of the Atlantic to tta safe anchorage oa the Western Continent, thu3 provid ing an outlet and a field in tbe new oiii for the best thought aod life of the old, that ages before had watched the Ark in its drifing on the watery waste, guiding it with its precious freight of all that was wor thy, out of tbe old iuto the Dew. There are three" things which stand connected io human history ncccr- ing at nearly the same time the sig nificance of which I leave you to confraohte : 1st. Tbe discovery of printing, by means of which th world was liberated from i's iutelbc tnal bondage 2ld The reforraA :on under Martin Luther, by means of which the world was liberated from its spiritual bondage. 3d The discovery of America, bv means of which 'his new inheritance of liberty might fl iniwb unmolested You sav it chanced ves it chanced- "Almigh tv God tha' chance did goide " America was kept, bidden all these yeais that she might not be polluted acd cursed by the night of the Park Ages, and was brought to light only jn tbe '-fullness of time" of men'al, mora! and civil liberty Look, now, at the Providence tbat peopled tbis country. They were men of character and convictions. The strong wind f peraecu'ion drove them to our shores. Toe Nvion". of 'he eartb were sifted that royal seed mieh' be provided for the new Geld The landing of the Pilgrim Fathers at Plymouth was no more an acci dnt than the drifting of tbe rush b at of the infant Moses near the ptlac of Pharaoh was an accid t. The links of God's providential chain are sometimes small bat none the less strong Nor do they less surely drav results after them. Thetremb ling tear on tbe infant's chpek. a srorm bearirg on the Mayflower are not. simply incidents, hut great facts in the world's history. Did yon ever reflect what might have been the re sult had the gold bplt skirted our eastern rather than our western bord er ? Hid it been there tbe Span iard and the adventurer would have found it. 8nd our population would have been like that of Mexico or Brazil. But a better inheritance was in store for this fair land ; an open Bible, a free school, a state without a king and a church without a Pope Look, now, at the events of '7C. wbicb culminated in the establish ment, of a new government, npon a new basis, thus inaugurating a new era ia tbe world's history. To the student of history there ia nothing more interesting than the growth aod development of a great idea. Its fruition may he discovered, but not i'.s beginning no more than the beginning of dawn and the end of twilight it matures as slowly as the ccotu-y plant ard bursts forth as suddenly It required long ages to prepare the world for human habita tion. It requires a century to devel ops an oak fiom an acorn. So it re quired long periods of history and experiment to prepare tbe elements and opportunities for the events of '7G. Tbey constitute the full fruition of the maturing tendencies of centuries. We may not paue here to indicate the manner in which God determined the character of the new government. , We need only cite the convictions and principles of the men who came first to onr shores, tbe wants and ne cessities the new government was tie signed to meet, the nature rf the colonial development, a illustra. lions of tbis preparatory work. Tbe mode and manner of tbe Revolution of '70 shows its Divine significance The separation of the colonies from the authority of the English crown was not tbe greatest triumph of our fathers' war, it was tbe manner of the separation that gave tbe significance of tie event to the world Tbe sep aration was in all probability only a qnestion of time, but had it been ac complished gradually, it would have been a reproduction of tbe old, and not a new development Coming as it did. however, it was an advanced ten The whole significance of the Kevolutioa U founded in thiB-nqt, r Yh 1 Ox dl that a new state was organiz?d, but that new principles were dclsred, oesr truths proraultratd, new ideas fib:'" - Tlie,ie were first, the object of civil goreraraeu'.. the good of toe governed secind, the authority of the government, the will of the pe i ple. These are the distinctive prin ciples of our institutions, tbe pillars cf our structure, America's bluings to the world. In the physical w Tld diamonds are produced by the intense pressure of the elements, so io hu man history feelings and seatimeots are crysta!iz-d by tbe high pressure of events into clearer principles and better lavs. Tbis Is tbe true theory uf tne Bevotuti o. "The people ot tbis new country, G'ted by all tbat measure of strength aud preparation for self government which older in stitutions could give, were, by tbe events of '7C, clothed with majestic auribates of their owo sovereignty, and consecrated to the administration ot ibeir own priesthood." Well did Burke say of American Independ ence, "A great revolution has hap pened, a new state of a new species has appeared in a new part of tbe globe, making as great change ia all tbe relationship, balances and grav itations of power, a- tbe appearance of a new plauet would in the solar ystem." And do we not see the same Divioe band in tbe s access of revolutionary arms At first the results seemed to all human apoear ancKS exceedingly doubifil, but tbey were uot so. God's side of any ques tion is always the strongest, and must ultimately triumpb He inva riably c mstuutei a majority witbia Himself. Ia every conflict, that na tion that is true to Him muse prevail it cannot be overthrown: for, fixed on tbe eternal principles of right anr trutb as is .Ut. .ion tbat can never b ra jved. Napoleon used to say "God was on the side of the strong est battalions." but be did not find it so in bis l.ussiaa campaign. It was not Russian armies tbat defeated bim, but Russian winters, storms, pestilences, aad G id tbat wrought bis overiLrow. It bus been ever so in history. "When the Assyrian came down like a wolf on the told," be encouatered a warrior be never dreamed uf aad lost in one nigbt ISO, 000 ot bis cboeca men, without even caiching sight of the opposing banal ious.

But why m oi iply incidents? 1 1 is to ry is full .f tbem Tbis fact blazes from human history as clear as tbe sun from heaven, tbat there is a God of battles, aod that the nation that catches "the soua.l of a g liny iu the mulberry trees." and moves in har mony shall prevail Tbe band of God is just as clear in tbe results uf lork town, Waterloo, and Gettysburg as in tbe preservation of tbe intaot .VI ses or in ihe destruction of Pba raoh's host.

It was tbe proud prophecy ot many tbat tbe new cation would not long continue, that anarchy and disruption wonld s-xin p'evail. liut a century has gone and th6 fierce shocks that have come against its structure have but settled it more firmly on i's base. It remains like the tall cedar of Leba- anon, stronger and more vigorous for the storms mat swayed it to and fro. Scting asida tho va'ious issues of "he late uopleasan'ness," there were some questions definitely set tled by it It djmnstrated clearly the ability of the country to solve the problems of its own life and perpitui- ty It enunciated more emphatically than ever the truth of its motto, "E pluribn j nti ui, "from many, one, that ab ive all slate rights and sectarian feeling the interests of the general government must ipreval. Disnnion is a lost case, yes. may we not hope forever "buried ia a grave deep as hell and covered with a stone as big as a planet." Mr. Huxley, when be was in tbis country, some months Bince, nttered some grave apprehensions concering the permanecy cf our institutions. and intimated that tbe future would firing untried emergencies tbat migbt prove disastrous; but this, we think, like some ot bis scientific theo ries, is bat "tbe baseless fabric of a vision " Macaolev uttered tbe same thought long ago and others be fore bim. Bat the various questions and disorders tbat have arisen have been dealt Vita in a manner that will challenge comparison with any nation on the globe. And tbe suc cess of th past inspires fai'h in the future We do not claim a perfect government, only a new and im proved one, one better adapted to the issues aod wants of these la'er timea than any former one. But we would not weary yon with tbis phase of our theme. Do we not behold from these few providences of the many of our history, the wonderful band of God, and "the pillar of cloud?" May we not "rest our case" here aad with be Pealmist conclude: "He batb not dealt so with aoy nation." Our lost consideration shall be drawn from a brief contemplation of tbe peculiar mission of our conn try. Ia ibis I think it will appear tbat we are highly favored of heav en, tbe elect of tbe Nations of tbe earth, tbat a peculiarly important mission has been committed unto ua. This mission is twofold. First, to demonstrate the capacity of buman nature f or .self government and tbe sopeiioriiy of such government. Republics bad always been consid ered failures. It was because the world was not ripe for them. Tb Reformation in England under Cromwell failed ia this respect be cause it did not go far enough, Tbat of t rence, in tbat it went too ; far. A Frenchman is nothing it not Id zz If IIU1aT ivy. erratic; with more conscience be more conscience would be aa archangel: as it is, io civil matters, te m a crors between a geniu and a fool.

Now mark, it is not expected tbat the whole world will come to every feature ot our peculiar , . . , economy, but that tbe popular pnn - cipieit ui uur btbiciu wiu u riert . ,. i T. .- wbere realized. Every candid ob server must admit that a survey of tho present condition of tbe govern ments of the world reveals a tenden cy in civil affairs toward Republican ideas, liberties as irresistible aa the earth's motion. Tbis is seen "in tbe movement toward equality ot repre sentation and the enlarvement ot suf frage in England, in the unity of Italy, in tbe confederation of Ger many under the lead of 1 russia,in tbe actual republic of France, in tbe un steady throne of Spain, in tbe con stant additions to tbe people s liber ties of Europe." Columbia, in this respect, ia tbe North Star of all tbe nations, and by ber clearer light and higher truth tbe whole world seems magnetized ; for the needle oi civil legislation dips constantly toward ber fundamental truth, "that all men are bora free and equal." Tte second element of ber mission is to solve the various social and po litical problems of the world. Our country baa been well termed the "battle ground of ages." For here all peoples, all nations, all uibea meet, bringing their various customs, ideas, and problems with them. It ia the Canaan to which the pilgrimage of the world has been tending. Some one has beautifully pictured it, "the three sons of Noah separating from one another on leaving the Ark, each pursuing bis own appointed way aod mission, meet at last, after ail these centuries, in our own favored land, a trio of humanity, looking op to a triune God." Look at the elements entering into our Nation's life. First aa to the nations. French in Maine, English in Massachusetts, Dutch in New York, Quaker in Pennsylvania, Cav aliers in irginia, with Scotch, Irub and Africans scattered promiscuous ly. Io regard to ideas of govern ment tbe Fiench were monarchists, Pilgrims republicans, Dutch wanted to be let alone, Quakers would not fight, Cavaliers wanted to danothibg else, Spaniards were vagabonds, la regard to religion there were Catho lics, I'rotes'.anta, Freethinkers. Pa gans, Infidels and "every one a big ot." These were the complex and various elements to be harmonized into our "body politic." And now cf later years tbe Cbineae come pouring in through tbe golden gate by tbe million, with their eupersti- tions and idols, and tbe problem is Btill more complex. Our Nation is to harmonize tbe world into one people and adjust tbe various questions, po litical, social and religious that dis turb mankind. Is not tbis a holy trust? May we not behold in tbis grand mission the Divine purpose of those wonderful resources and prov idences we have been contemplating! May we not, with fourfold meaning, repeat tbe text, "Ue bath aot dealt so with any nation." Let me now offer a few thoughts on the trne way in which we may prove faithful to our holy trust, and insure the Divine blessing. And here let us remember tbat God holds bations as well as individuals respon sible for favors bestowed upon tbem, and history as well as revelation teaches that faithless nations, as faithless individuals, are beaten with many stripes. 1 remark, then, that our first duty is to preserve the integrity of our civil polity. Gjd gave U3 a republic on this continent for a special pur pose, and means that it shall stand secure. We have no room for sepa rate kingdoms, no place for a mon archy. Let this be the common mot to of all parties, of all eections, "tbe union forever, one and inseparable." Let not sectional strife or party feel ing distract from it. Let the object of all legislation, of al! political ac tion, be to preserve the purity and perpetuity of our civil institutions. Divide on whatever minor issues you please; tariff, currency, civil service or any issue, bnt on tbis agree: "The union of States and of interests." Let onr civil polity, a sacred gift from heaven, received from the bands of our Fathers, be transmitted invio late to coming generations. Remem ber the lessou tanght by the dissolu-1 tion of Ancient Republics. Internal dissension accomplished quickly what foreign invasion failed to do. Does some one say that I am trans cending tbe limits of my sphere? Not so. I would point to the exam ple of the Ancient Hebrew gather ing tbe yontb of .his nation about bim, and instructing tbem in the pe culiar rites and duties of their na tion. So we of this later time, with a better heritance than the Jew, may well look to "the things tbat make for our peace." Therefore, as a religious duty, I would rekindle again tbe fires of patriotism wbicb I sometimes fear are dying out Again I remark we will secure tbe blessing of God by remaining true to tbe moral issues that come op io our legislation. Ab, says some one, yoQ are mixing politics and re ligion. . Exactly. Tbey bay been separated long enough. " Tbe cry of the times is for more of just Boca mixing. ISot to carry sectarian preju dices and preferences into politics, bat to carry virtue, honor, morality and Christian principle into politics aod to mix them liberally. Civil government is the right arm of God's administration ia tbis world. There can be no conflict between isaa'a aWafaWaWjaWBBBBaaBBiatai .. ji i ,j jjbiuuu jjijui LI moral and civil oLIigatrona.
