REVOLUTIONARY SERMON.

REVOLUTIONARY SERMON.
They that take the Sword shall perish
by the Sword
Soldiers and Comtryman;
We have met this evening perhaps iot
the last time. We have shared the toll Of
The march the peril of the ighl and The dis
may of The retreat alike, we have endured
the cold and hunger, The conlumely Of the
internal foe, and the courage Of the foreign
oppressor. We have sat- night after night
beside the camp fire; we have together
heard the roll OF the IsviIlle. which called
US to duty, or the bea! Of 'he tattoo, which
gave the signal for The hardy sleep of the
soldier with the earth for his bed and the
knapsack for his pillow.
And now, soldiers and brethern, We have
me, on the peaceful valley on The eve OF
battle, while the sunlight is dying away be-
yond yonder heights, lhe sunlight lha, to-
morrow mora will g'immer on scenes o
blood. We have met amid the whitening
en,s Of our encampmeni in the time d
error and gloom have we gathered togelh'
l4r-God grant it may not be for the lsst
iue.
1t is a solemn mament. Brethren, dOe'
,ol tie solemn voice Of nature seem to echc
he sympahies of the hour! The flag ol
,ur country dloops heavily from yonder
staff the breeze has died away along the
green plains of Chadd's Ford-lhe plain
that spreads before us glit'eIing in sun.
igal--Ihe heights Of the Brsndywine ar-
ses gloomy and grand beyond the waters
Of solemn silence. on the eve Of uproar
and bIoodshed and strife Of tomorrow.
They that take the sword shall perish
10y the sword
Aud have lhey not taken the sword!
Lei he desoaled plain, the blood-sod. .
den vailirs, the burned farm house blacker-
ling liz the sun, The sacked VILLAGE, and lhe
ravaged town, answel--lel the whitening
bones OF the buichered farmer s,rewn along
the fields of his home Stead ans wer-let The
starving mother, With her babe cIuglng to
lhe wi'hered breast that can afford no sus~
'enance, let her answer with the deaIh-ras-
lie mirging with the murmuring tones that
marked The last struggle Of her life; let the
lying mother and her babe answer.
Il was but day past and our land slept
in the quiet Of peace. War was not here
Fraud and woe, and misery and want, dwell
not among US From the eternal solitude
OF Ihe green woods, arose the blue smoke
Of The settlers cabin, and golden fields .
corn looked forth from amid The wasie o
the wildsIness, aud the glad music of hu
man voices awoke the silence OF tie forest
Now, God Of mercy behold the change
Under the shadow Of pretext, under tn
sanclity of the name Of God, invoking til
Redeemer to their aid do these iorsig
hirelngs slay our peopleI They thron
our towns, they darken our plains, and nos
they encompass our posts on the lionel
plain o! Chadd's Ford.
They that take the sword, shall peris
by the sword
Brethren, think me not unworthy Of bt
