flict of which no man can see the end, closed
a week Of events, the most interesting within
the memory of citizens who are now living
From early in the morning till near midnight
the streets overhowed with thronging and
eager multitude, who attestcd by their en-
thusiasm the depth of their sympathy for the
work which has called our brave soldiery
from their homes. Many stores and private
dwellings displayed the national colors, and
the active movement of troops, with the sound
of martial music at intervals during the day,
and all the busy notes of preparation for a

Rev. Mr.. RICHARDSON, at Salem street
church, preached from Kings, Xxx. 1l-"Letnot
him that girdeth on his harness boast himself
as he that putteth it off, The lesson he drew
from this text was that the prophets of God
called upon the people to defend their national
rights by every means in their power-that
government must be maintained Although
war is to be dreaded, anarchy is still worse,
and government should be upheld at any cost.
He showed that the policy of non-resistance
has been tried already too long, and that it was
time to act. Those who go to fight the battles
OF their country go on Gods service. Theirs
is the proof Of honor. We should translate
faith into faithfulness. He could pray for
blessing and victory in this cause, as for the
autumn's harvest or for the salvation of men.
The great moral strength that comes from a
just cause is on our side. Some seven or
eight OF Mr.. Richardson's congregation have
gone off to the wars, and he made appropriate
allusion to the fact, speaking words of en-
couragement for them, and of comfort for their
families. We have full report of the dis
course, but owing to the press of war news,
are obliged to shorten it.

THE WORCESTER TRooPs.-It is scarcely
seven days since the requisition was made
upon Massachusetts, for her quota of troops,
and she has furnished every man of them,
prepared and equipped for immediate service.
This city alone has had the good fortune to
contribute three hundred men, who do not
know what it is to falter in the hour OF trial
and danger. In nearly three hundred families
the events Of this most just cause will be
tuue. 1t IS fortunate, however, for theln, aid
for those who have enlisted, that the command
is one in which they can place implicit
trust In the commanding officer of the
battalion, and in his medical attendant and
adviser, every Worcester soldier will find a
watchlul md sustaining friend. Aside from
the inevitable calamihes of state of war, our
soldiers have been provided with everything
that could contribute to their comfort and
health, and when the hour of trial comes, if it
comes at all, they will bear themselves with
the resolute bravery which is the forerunner
of victory
