The people Of the United States are this day
called to commemorate the Anniversary of the
Declaration of Independence made by the Cont
mental Congress on the 4th of July, 1776.
The celebration of this HOLIDAY still finds US amid
all and sounds of civil war; being the fourth
recurrence of the day under auspices that little
beht the heart of the rejecting patriot to engage
In Its traditional festivities. For, if the proper
commemoration of the day is no more than just
it comes at the present time with mournful sense
of the political degeneracy which has forfeited for
us the peaceful enjoyment of the rich heritage
they bequeathed to their descendants If it be
true, as
-"the poet sings
THAT sorrows crown Of is remembering hap
pier things"
this nation has surely abundant reason to bow its
head in anguish as memory contrasts its once hap
Ply estate with Its present desperate condition.
Never has people SO squandered the Blooms poured
into its lap by the lavish kindness of benignant
Providence, and our want of gratitude for the
good and perfect gifts" which have been show
cred on US from Heaven is only exoeeded by the
strange iDsensibility that seems to harden the
minds of the people under the awful judgments Of
Deity,now that He has come forth from His hiding
place to execute His vengeance and display His
wrath. There are those among US who exult in
the very magnitude of our cslamities, and who
point with undissembled pride to the prodigality
with which We spending our blood and treasure,
as though the CHASTITY wounds of our body polite
were not SO many marks of shame and seals of
sorrow. 1t is not in this spirit that Christian
people should accept the scourge Of war, and espe-
cially war thrust upon them by intestine strife
and conyulsion. Let us hope that the evil spirit
under whose possessions our land is now rent and
torn will soon be eectually cast out, and that at
the next return Of this anniversary of the Natal
Day of our country. its inhabitants may be found
walking in the light Of that wisdom all Of whose
ways are ways Of pleasantness and all of whose
paths are paths of peace. And in the mean time
let each loyal citizen grid up the loins of his mind
and seek to develop in time of war the virtues
of self sacrifice and patriotic devotion, that so
- many darkness with the light shall leap,
And shine in the sudden making Of splendid names,
And neble thought be freer under the SUM-
And The heart of people beat with one desire"
