ry is virtually at an end. Stephens chief cor
ner stone, almost as soon as laid, is raised to
its due position, and he and his guilty associ-
ates in this atrocious rebellion may soon oc-
cupy position of their own, not very advan-
tageously compared with that of the rejected
negro. When relieved as they soon will be-
of the cares Of the government, let us hope
that, in prison or in exile, they will learn how
perilous it is to practically controvene the will
of Him who has made of one blood all nations
of men that dwell upon the lace of the earth
and that they will further learn, that there is
Stone, elect, precious, on which If men fall,
they shall be broken, but which if it fall on
them, will grind them TO powder.
For ourselves, Beloved Friends, it is a mat
ter of devout thankiulness, that our Govern
ment has placed itself and the people in po-
sition in which we can claim and will receive
the sympathy and cheer of every phlanthro-
pist on earth. More than this, we are now,
as people, in this great contest, in harmony
with the revealed aud unalterable will of God.
We can now consistently and as Christians,
pray for the blessing of Heaven on our arms,
for we have forsaken that great evil which has
given rise to so many of our social troubles,
which has made our boosted liberty the by
word of the world, and which-rnore than
aught or than all else--has hindered our pray
ers for our national welfare, and held over us
so longlthe dark and lowering cloud OF divine
displeasure. From this time God will bless
us. Let us but be true to our convictions
true to those divine principles ofrectitude and
justice on which all real and permanent pros
perity is ever based-true to the Constitution
al tradition that ..all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with
certain unalienable rights; that among these
are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
true to the inspired and immutable maxim
that righteousness axalteth nation, whilst sin
is a reproach to any people, Toal these
let us be true and faithful, and success will
assuredly crown our efforts to restore the
Union-releved of@that hateful incubus of
human bondage, and to place our nation on a
height of moral greatness that will gain for
her the terror Of evil-doers, and the respect
and reverence of all. in every land, who fear
God and love their lellow-men.
