THANKSGIVING IN RAvENNA.-Thursday,
the 9th inst. designated by the President as a
day of Thanksgiving to Almighty God, for
the signal Victories which he has voueh-safed
to our armies, was observed by Union servi-
ces held at 2 p. m. in the Congregational
sermon was preached by Rev. E. S. Gfllett,
of the M. E. Church. He read the 124th
pslam as the foundation of his discourse, He
deducedl from it, the doctrine of a general
and particular providence. God is. God is
in Heaven. God rules in the affairs of men.
He traced our late victories and successes,
which had called forth the thanksgiving proc
lamatien of 1.-The Presidentsto the direct and
gracious influence an Almighty, pFosiden-
tial agency.
This pslam was written to celebrate the de-
liverence of the Jews from the conspiracy of
Haman Slavery was the Haman of our day
freedom was the Mordecai at the gate. The
great conspiracy of the south was the Haman
gibbet upon which, this modern Mordecai,
freedom, was to be suspended. but, as of old,
this nlodernI '.aman, was tosbe suspended on
his own gibbet.
The discourse was faithful and fearless
sutterance, of clear-headed Christian sphilan-
thropist and patriot against slavery, the cause
of the rebellion, and in favorrof freedom, and
the Gods given rights of humanity. Paisied
be his hand before he would vote for traitor
to ohisconntry, and let his tongueeleaxe to the
roof of his mouth, before he would advocate
the elevation of such man to any Office oi
responsibility or Influence.
Though this sad war had filled the land
with bereavement and1.sorrow, enduring and
lasting honor shed its glory and its halo on
the heroic dead, and on their surviving friends.
The sacrifice, great as it was, might not be toe
great for the precious divine boon to be re-
ceived, permanent, regulated freedom for all
men. In acknowi edgement.of the benifcent
rulings of Divine Providence, he took .
hopeful and encouraging view of our future
Blessed be the Lord who has not given u;
as prey to their teeth. si--i d -''=
Our seuls has escaped as asbird out of the
snare of the fowlerds, the snare is broken an6
we have escaped.
Our helpis in the name of the Lord, who
made heaven and earth.
l. We, of course, attempt no detailed sketci
of "a discourse occupying over an hour in it!
delivery. Suffice it to say that it was wel
adapted to and worthy of the occasion-ful
of the force and energy of IAN enlightened
awakened and christian patriotism. Il wa
| listened to with undivided attention, and CAV,
great satisfaction, tosa large and highly graft
fed assembly--as the numerous encomium
of the hearers testified.
