locitv. 80, the results Of the late war show
themselves, ard will forever have their
influence, and effect, in every direction,
aud every department Of human life.
Everywhere We see evidences OF more en-
during, aud permanent, national strength.
A new impetus has been given TO all conn.,
mercial, agricultural, and industrial pur-
suits. Everything seems to be established
on a frmer basis. The numerous rail-
roads, extending, aud iLtersectiug their
lines all through the land, are bringing
the people Of different States, aud remote
points, nearer together, thus increasing
the bonds of sympathy, aud friendly re-
lations. The shores Of the two great
oceans now lovingly embrace each other,
with their long arms EMBEDDING all OF coun-
try and people that lies between.
The present mode Of regulating and con-
dgoting the monetary system, which the
financial necessities Of the times, during
the war led to, has a tendency to unite
and bind the people together by common
interests, which so strengthen the bonds
of the union, that dismemberment seems
almost impossible.
We, indeed, have reason TO believe that
God intends this country to be the great
as lum, and home Of refuge for all His
children, where all may enjoy equal
rights; where the merest boy, born in
the humblest cot, may, with equal chan
ces of success, aspire TO the highest posi-
ton of honor in the country where char
acter, and worth, not the mere accident
of birth, shall determine mans position.
/ If such principles are worth lighting for,
they certainly are worth living for, and
/ let us see to it that we maintain our gov
eminent in all its purity, and integrity,
and allow il not to fall into the hands of
m oigarchy, or suffer any class Of men to
tyraunize, or rule over us. May we learn
/ from the past, how to avoid wars in the
future and as we bow with love and rev.
ereuce over the graves Of thoie dear ones,
as we cherish and honor their memory, as
we bring flowers, pure and fair, in remem
Drance Of their services, and fidelity to
their country, so may we consecrate, anew,
ourselves to the principles Of right and
Justice. May we realize that God will
have workers, that the warfare in this life
is always between the love Of justice to
humanity-God's highest attribute, and
! the love Of self and selfish interests, though
it involve the destruction of humanity.
These are the antagonstic elements.
Though men may build in their wicked
ness, higher and higher, surmounting even
the tower of Babel-be their structure new
or so immense, or their foundations never
SO solid, if they build not for God, and
humanity, silently, and slowly though
surely, He will undermine them.
Socially, and physically, as well as po-
liticaly, the currents and counter currents
in the elements Of society, are in rapid
commotion, right alwaysat WARMTH wrong
ltdoes not require a very great stretch Of
thought, or diseernment, to see that in the
great future, reformatory measures for the
advancement, and elevation, of mankind
are to be in the ascendancy, and that man,
or woman, who fails to see it, and to act
accordingly, fails to receive the rewards
of an approving conscience, aud the kind
remembrance and sweet appreciation of
future generations,
While we thank the Dear Father for
the sweet memories chat cluster around
the graves of these brave heroes we do
not in the least fail to appreciate the SER
vices Of those: recalling them, name by
name, who were safely returned to us from
the scene OF conflict, unbroken in heath,
and spirits, and all free from the vices
and communicating influences which so Of
ten beset those in camp life and we here
pledge ourselves never to forget the dan
gers, and perils, to which they were cx-
posed, or fail to realize The momentous
signili-ancc, Of the fual triumph, OF the
immortal principles, for which they fought
