SIR: Yesterday the greatest question
was decided which was ever debated in
Americs, and. greater, perhaps. never was
or will be decided among men. A reso.
luton wss passed, without one disse nting
Colony, that these United States are and
Of right ought to be free and independent
States. o." ~
The day has passed. The 4lh of July,
1916, will be Q memorable epoch in the
history ofAmerica. am apt to believe
IL isoiH be celebrated by succeeding genera.
tions os great american Festival. II
ought TO be commemorated as the day of
deliverdncs, by solemn acls Of devotion TO
God. II ought 10 be solemnized with
ponps, shoaos, games. sports, bells, Jon-
fires. and Examinations, from one end of
the continent to tile other, from This time
toraoard and forever. You will think me
transported with enthusiasm, but am
not. / am well aware of The toll and
blood and treasure that it will cost to
maintain this Declaration, and support
aud defend these States; yet through all
the gloom can see the rays OF Light and
Glory--I can see that the end is worth
more than all the means, and that pos.
terity will triumph, although you and I
may rue. which hope we shall not.

truth in the present day more certain
than another, it is tina. the activity OF the
country threatens to become excessive,

say, perhaps. that SO long as there is

that every display Of energy which de.
feats its own end is not laudable. but
foolish. and that big words will no. an

The Closing Scene.

The closing scene in the life OF Gov.
ernor Brough. as described to us by an
eyewitness, is full OF interest and patLos.
On Monday evening at about nine o'clock
the Governor awakened from the inseusi.
oillty 10 which he had lain for some davs.
and' at the request OF his family. who
gathered around his bedside. Suroeon
General Barr informed him that all which
human skill could do for him bsd been a..
tempted, and in vain, and thstaoev be
was in the hands Of the Almighty God
He could not live for,y.eight hours. The
Governor was greatly shocked a, this an.
nouncement, and. looking General Barr
in The lace. desired him to repeat what ne
had said. General Barr again stated that
he had not forty .eigh! hours TO live.-
The Governor then requested that all ex.
cept his family and General Barr should
leave the room. Alter this had been
done, he conversed calmly and nationally
with his family for some time, on private
family affairs. .''0
Turning to- General Barr, and appa.
rentIy addressing his remarks more par.
.icularly to him, the Governor proceeded
to speak OF his religious views and hopes
He said in substance that he was no ,heo
logian, and had never made any profess.
ion OF religion. He had. however, al.
ways iendeavored 10 live honestly and up.
righly 10 bis relations with his fellow men.
and he hoped and believed that he lad so
done. He confessed that he had sinned
greatly, although he denounced az false
the slsnderous rumors Of his Drunkenness
ard RIGHTEOUSNESS which had been circu.
lated. ut,though he acknowledged that
be had been q great sinner in the sight Of
God, he stated that every act OF bis 10 dis
charging his duties as Governor had
been performed with the strictest cousci
entiousness, and with prayerful regard to
his responsibility. not only to the country,
but to God. He also stated that be had
never gone to bed at night for twenty
years. without fi'st praying to God for for.
giyeness and protection. and that he died
penitently, acknowledging bis sins and
trusting in Christ for pardon. As he
spoke, the Governor raised his eyes, and.
as though death lent supernatural keen.
ness 10 them. exclaimed that be saw the
Mediator standing on the right hand OF
the Father, making intercession for his
sins. He concluded with the declaration,
several times repeated: 81 die hoppily
and gloriously." The scene was deeply
affecting, and, atiths close Of it. the Gov.
ernor put his arms around the neck d
General Barr, and with deep emotion
thanked him for his care and attention, ,ex-
pressing perfect satisfaction With bis med
ical treatment. r. He then took his farewell
Of his family. About midnight be re-
lapsed into insensibiIity, which continued
without emission until bis DEATH ~ 4
