Nothing can be we'll done unless per-
formed in the truth and spirit of Christi
anity The wicked may for time. as in
the case Of our rebel foe, become the yic-
tors in all their undertakings, but, nnsanc-
toned by the grace Of God. the instability
of their cause will soon become apparent
to them, aud they either must continue ON
in opposition to God and Justice and be-
come the destroyers of their own souls, or
surrender to that All-powerful strength.
opposed to which individuals as well as
mighty armies must never expect to sue
coed. And there is no better confirmation
of this fact than that contained in the posi-
tons of the two armies now opposed to
each other While one is found arrayed
in all the strength of bloodthirsty indifer-
ence to every thing good and righteous,
which ignorance and long course of wick
edness has engendered, resolved to leave
nothing undone that will secure victory to
their arms; sitting every sentiment of right
that may arise to question the justice of
their cause; and knowingly opposed alike
to the most sacred principles Of human
liberty, as well as the most sacred precepts
of the Bible; the other, though defeated,
driven and slain by thousands; though
enemies at home plot treason, and all the
world coFertly threatened it, nothing has
stayed its course nor for moment intimi-
dated its aim; and this is because every
man, even It he were not really christian,
was resolved to support the cause of God,
even to the sacrificing of his life, and our
success thus far is wholly attributable to
the business of our cause, and to the sup
port and approval of God and of christian
men.
In the history of the wars Of the Old

were known to but few, there is discernible
through all the struggles and progress Of
civilization, law of pure christianity which
sustained itself against the superstitions of
the Dark Age. and has lived and grown

TIE appearance Of distinguished guests
on Sunday afternoon produced an unusual
sensation % they approached our grounds,
and 1t was easy to discover they were high
in authority and had an object They
circulated every where in Rebel Camp and
Hospital, but especially among tho men of
their own native State, for whom their
demonstrations were strong and earnest,
and on whom they showered many bless
ings. The New Hampshire troops are men
Of fine appearance and manly bearing =
men who have been in active service since
the beginning Of the war. and to whom the
country owes much, for they have given
their lives to the sacred cause.
The party assembled at the Headquarters
of Gen. Marston, where New-Hampshire
WIS represented by her devoted sons. Gov.
Gilmore greeted them cordially and appro-
priately. Prominent among them stood
the Hon. john p Hale, whose voice is
over on the side of justice and right. He
was most happy in addressing his own
brave boys, urging the vigorous prosecu-
ton of the war as the only means by which
the desired crisis could possibly come. 80
inspiriting and earnest were his words, that

Clark, who gave encouragement and cheer,
and expressed strong belief that the
promise was sure brighter day was

Mr. Foster followed in a neat and hap
nv manner, when Professor Patterson was
announced and spoke the words which
touch mems hearts, words Of truth, as
their sutferings and LOSSES abundantly prove.
He said . You are the most eloquent men
New Hampshire has ever produced; your
speeches were made at Bull Run; they
were made at Antietam. at Fredericksburg,
and in later days at Gettysburg, and their
echoes win be heard by your great great
grandchildren" MIR. Patterson represents

gress. Most earnestly AMI gracefully he
addressed the assembled troops; after which

VIZ learn from some of the passengers
who arrived in the steamer Key Port on
Friday night, that on her trip down she
met with an accident which, but for the
subsiding of the storm, might have proved
serious. She was very heavy laden. and
the bay being rough, the pressure Of the
water against the side of the wheel-houso
was more than it could bear, and gave way,
letting the water rush upon the deck IN
torrents. She then turned her course to
find harbor, but the bay soon becoming
more calm, and after having temporarily
repaired damages, she resumed her voyage
arriving at this place about an hour later
than usual.
