cru ucotiualioi' DuC tiic peueiratlne~
mild Of the Infinite God, piercing
through the labarvnth of all times
and through the endless cycles Of
eternity, did not fail to discover that
order, system and discipline would be
absolutely essential to the works Of
His hands. The myriads of worlds
that systematically roll in the immens-
ity of space, prove that "orderis Heav-
ems first law" \ series Of systems
and regulations were marked out by
the finger Of the Great Architect to be
pursued by all orders of his creative
objects. Should the limits of this es-
tablshed code be overstepped, the
violator must pay the forfeit with pun
ishment. The moral depragity of
man takes its tc--i3ning in the Garden
oc Eden whera &c seeds of diseonent
and curiosity were sown by the in
trusion of Mother Eve upon the prln-
ciples prescribeL by GOD. thus the
obstinacy of mankind has followed
the Adamic race down through the
space Of six thousand years. 1t was
here that man became an erring
creature, battling against the cstab-
lished court of High Heaven. Thus
he continues to leap the barriers of
Gods limits, and bidding defiance to
the fixed digest, he rushed on in his
career until govelliDg reason bids him
beware. The consequence of Gods
anger is indubitable in the multiform
scourges upon mankind---now drench-
ing this nation in blood, while the
powderish blasts OF war sweep the
nobIest Of a nation into an endless
grave. Again it is manifest, in the
sending of Famine forth, clad in the
habiliments of woe and suffering, and
moving with rapid strides, from nation
to nation shaking her ematiated I'm
ger here and there while a horrlC
smile seems to light up her wan coun
tenance. There must be discipline ii
every undertaking or all efforts vii
prove fruitless. The smallest whee
/ in a mechanical structure must re
volve an exact number of times, o.
all the greater ones will cease to turn
We are taught that the arrangcmen
of Gods discipline over all creation
is so perfect that every word that
uttered wings its flight to the thron
of God. Is it not certainly strange
then. that man, the grandest species c
Gods mechanism, being endowe
with the reasoning faculties and mad
too aftcr Gods own image, should b
the first to disobey the Divine Law
The discipline which is exercised b
the sovereign, in the administration
Justice and equality, is a link whIc
binds it to the law of God. Sovel
eigns who sit upon the chrome haV
an enormous responsibility restln
= upon them, to follow the prescribe
path marked out by Him "who doet
all things WE'LL" and to rule with a
equal discipline over their subject
For the laws by which the sovereie
, rules his Subjects are based upon Il
: Divine law; and thus the link is CO
!, nccted with nat discipline which
e exercised around the throne OF Il
Most High; and thus it extends fro
}, subordinate to subordinate, even
