privilege OF reading theiE Constitution before it is
adopted. II isNnpossible for them 10 cast vote
sganst it. They must vote for if, not vote at all.
Why should they be concerned 10 what provisions
their Constitution contains They have not had any
hand in its manufacture and poweress to prevent
its adoption. If only ten men go TO the polls on the
day Ied for the ratification Of the Constitution by the
people, the organic law will have received the great
seal of Squstter Sovereignty. II would seem, from
the, following from The kareRr0rtk Herald that the

SERMON BY THE REV. E. II. CHAPLIN.

SERMON BY THE REV. Z. II. CHAPLIN.
Thanksgiving services at the Rev. T.. II. Chapin's
church were attended by pretty numerous cengre-
cation. After Introductory services, adapted to toe
occasion, Mr. Chaplin preached sermon from the text
"Give US this day our daily bread" The grand fea
ture of Christianity its recognition of maus two
fold being 1t taught the necessity of sancdyog tue
body as means toward the ssnctficaton of the soul
It recognizes that human life in aits conditions on
earth and in heaven, is integTafe. The preacher
asked-Do men recognize this truth. and If 60, DO
their acts conform TO thsr belief He thought not
too many followed the literal signicaion OF the
text and became absorbed 10 getting wealth that
they facrifced health and happiness on eartn, ana
perled pesce in the life to come, for money To such,
this financial crash must be regarded as blessing 1t
caused them TO pause and consider what shadows they
pursued. The Almighty did not tumble their card
houses about their ears without good purpose. They
had co long in business tothe neglect
ofther physical and their immortal welfare, and 1t was
now time to stop and begin anew. Out of this present
evil they should draw the lesson, that beyond certain
honest limit in business and in pleasure, they could
not always venture with impunty- without incuning
the penalties of disobedience 10 immutable laws.
Men TO be held accountable for the sirs OF oms
sion as well of commission. Had each indivl iual
present done his her duty 10 the best OF their ab-
ity? Assuredly not. There had been too much dis
play too much extravaganza, too much presuming
upon this hollow, pufed-up, bsseless prosperity, 1t
was well that the Almighty had abased the naughty,
and tausht Inc presuInp uous now empty "as al ne'
vanity. We were apt to boast of our civilization;
but just under the light of churches and schools,
and sounding profession how much crime and misery
were bidder. So intense had been the pursuit OF mere
GAIN that the material well as the spiritual welfare
of this community had come to sad pass. In the
midst of all the Wanted refinement aud civilization,
the streets Of our city after nighfall had beeoms,
more dangerous than bowling wilderness, ana
10 man who went abroad was safe unless
he armed himself like fifty blaied jsck.knife
Our civilization had no depth, nor would 1t have
until men forgot their sefshness, and lived up TO the
spirit OF the text "Give this Gay daily bread
This prayer, as well this time, taught US our en-.
tire dependence upon our Heavenly Father Amid
all our machinery for achieving material greatness,
and all Of the ruin which had fallen upon u.s. seed time
and harvest did not fail. Peace health and plenty
smed over all the land, and in the midst Of all or
failures and misiortunes had everything to cheer
us spd bless us. Surely this is fitting season for
Thanksgiving not only because We hsve been blessed
with bounteous harvests but also for adverstes
