Sermon BY Rev. DR.. Cheever.
Rev. Dr. Cheever yesterday delivered Thanksgiving
sermon, taking for his text Isaiah lv ora in the
course Of which be sad that deliberate proposition was
now pending before tho Legislature and tho people TO
enable the rebel States to take away from the coored
the right Of etzenahp and the right to VOTE and
argued that such action would be actually returning
hem to slavery. He explained what tho constitutional
amendment proposed TO do and no thought that Con-
grcss should confer the dignity Of citizens the freed
mon, which could be done BY single word, that would
break the prejudice against color and the basis Of repre-
senation should then be on the ground OF education
Mr. Cheever charged the government with ngratitude
and said their conduct towards the colored race threatens
70 drag the country into another war; far more disastrous
than the last one--a war that would devastate the
country; war Of Gods vengeance for the manner in
which were treated who helped . country
Of thirty millions Of people.
