To day, however, this final phrase was
omitted, because, this being the annie

Emperor, the appointed Liturgy for the
occasion was added. -
The special service begins with the
long litany of fifteen petitions, to which
the choir make the usual responses
The Gospel is then read, which is fol-
lowed by the litany Of nine petitions for
the Imperial family. The most solemn
prayer for the Imperial family Is them
said, all kneeling.
This prayer was said outside OF the
sacrarium or chancel rail, the Bishop.
clergy and choir likewise kneeling. At
the conclusion Of this prayer Ill rose,
and the GLORIA in E1celsis WAS sung in
English to the familiar chant in g major;
to which it is usually sung in our parish
churches. The service concludes with
another invocation, and the choir again
sing the Anohnyah Lysta, which is the
signal for dismissal.

WEDNESDAY MOREING..-... MARCH s, 1865.

In the war Of the American Revolu-
ton, three fourths of the battles were
gained by the British. They not only
took the city Of Charleston, but every
other seaport, and almost every town in
America. They marched through South
Carolina, precisely as Sherman is doing
now; they drove Marion and Sumter
into the ssamps; they marched into
North Carolina, compelling our forefa-
theirs to fly to the Virginia woods, and
then returned to Wilmington. They
had every colony down; "gobbled up"
Richmond and Petersburg; galloped
through Charlottesville, and chased JEFF
ferson to Carter's mountain. They held
New York and other Northern cities;
scattered the American armies like chatf,
and considered the rebellion as crushed
hundred times. They had the most
powerful empire Of the world at their
back they had the aid of armed tories
in every county they excited the blacks
to insurrection, and let loose the scalping-
knife of the Indian upon the rebels
With all our troubles, we have so Ear
escaped the most terrible woe Of tho
Revolution - ncighbors fighting each
other, and the Indian war-whoop rousing
helpless families from their slun,bers
and devoting women and children to the
most cruel and horrible death. With all
this, the Revolutionary rebels had a cur
rency Of eight hundred for one, and were
overrun with extortioners and specula-
tors, as we'll as negroes and Indians.
Moreover, there was at the head of
the British kingdom man from whom
they could expect no possibility of COM
passion. Their lives and property might
have been saved by submission, but sub
mission George the Third was deter
mined to have. 1t is no exaggeration to
say that he was the most obstinate man
that lived in that age. Mr.. Lincoln has
a pretty good idea Of putting down his
foot firmly, but Mr.. Lincoln has no such
foot rs George the Third. A man Of
amiable disposition in private, exemplary
in his domestic habits, his o5stinacy in
all that related to his kingly Office,
amounted to a mental disease. And of all
his deep rooted resolutions, that to keep
America in subjection is said to have been
his strongest propensity; during the
contest, his whole soul was full of what
he termed the "presercation Of the ens.
pire." Rather than quit his hold over
the provinces, or do what he called
submitting to be trampled on by his
enemies" he threatened to abdicate.-
This was the kind of antagonist our an
cestors had to struggle with. Not much
hope of deliverance from Indians, tories,
negroes and redcoats while that old gen.
tleman lived. And yet our forefathers
had the faith to believe that the right
would, in the end, prevail, and plucked
the flowers of hope from the very jaws
of DESPAIR. What is there in our condi.
ton as gloomy, as terrible, as protracted,
as the long and dreary wilderness through
which they marched to freedom and in

CEREMONH
An interesting service took place in
New York, on Tuesday, at the Trinity
Chapel, with the permission of the Rector
of the Parish and the approval Of the
Bishop Of the Diocese. The use of the
chapel was offered to Father Agapius, Z |
Greek priest here, for the celebration of
the first service held in the United States
according to the Liturgy of the Russian
Church.
The day selected for tie ccremony-l
which, in the present state of Yankee
diplomatic and national affairs has an
important political as well as religious
signiGcance-wast the anniversary of the
coronation of Alexander II, the present
Gear of Russia.
THE LITURGY.
The chancel of Trinity Chapel was
lighted by tapers in the chandelier and
in the candelabrum on the altar. Father
Agapius, arrayed in white robe, trimmed
with gold, open in the front and display
ing scarlet scarf, which fell over the
breast, began the service according to the
regular liturgy by pronouncing the bene-
diction:
blessed be the kingdom of the Fa-
ther, Son and Holy Ghost, now and ever,
to ages and ages."-
To this the choir (of male adults only
responded "Amen."
An Ectene or Litany of twelve peti-
tions was then read, the choir respond
ing to each petition the oft>repeated
Hospode pomilui, or "Lord have mercy
and hear u.s." They then sang the Beat
itudes in English, and afterwards the
2risagion to the words:
CAoir-Holy God, Holy and Mighty,
Holy and Immortal have mercy upon Us.
Priest Wisdom, stand up. Let US
hear the holy gospel. Peace to all.
The gospel is then announced and Che
choir sing Slaca tebye Hospode Slava
I te6ye, meaning "Glory be to Thee, o
Lord; Glory be to Thee" This is also
repeated after the gospel is recited.
The long Ectene or Litany, containing
petitions for the Imperial family, is ther
read, and is Immediately followed by th'
EJE cHERUvEME,
or "the Cherubic Hymn" which is thu
translated by Mrs. Bowring:
} See the glorious Cherubim
| Thronging round tn Eternal throne;
Hark! thy sing their holy hymn
To tn Unknown Three in One,
All-supporting Deity;
! Living Spirit, praise to Thee!
| II.
