do and accomplish this does not imply for.
getfulness of the past, an honoring of The
transgressor. 1t Is but the exemplification
of charity, Of love of country.
A brave southern soldier recently adj
dressed his comrades in these words
" Since the southern cross, which we loved
" SO well, sank forever to rest amidst the
blood and tears of brave people behind
" the clouds upon the banks of the Apo
" mattox, ths"-the stars and stripes
" has been our flag. 1t is the flag of our
" country 1t is the only flag TO which VIC
" owe allegiance. Let us study the priuci-
"ples 1t represents, pledge our allegiance
" to them and follow them" We cannot
expect the residents of the south to forget
their gallant but unsuccessful struggle, in
a mistaken cause though 1t was. We can
not expect them to cease to honor their
dead. Their very remembrance of those
days and of those men will serve to bind
them closer 10 the Union. We would not
ask or desire the country to forget the past
or to fail in doing full honor to our fallen
braves, but We would, on Decoration Day,
have our surviving soldiers teach forgive
ness, Cancellation, love of the whole coun-
try,devoton TO the old flag and "the prlnci-
Piles it represents Time heals all wounds,
and we would that the orators of the day
should cover with the broad mantle of
charity the errors of those who cannot
plead for themselves. A brave man does
not tarnt his fallen foe. He honors his
bravery while he denounces the cause in
which he fell. The cause has been re-
moved, it can never confront Va again.
Let our soldiers, then, practice that divine
charity that covers a multitude of SINS
Let them remember that we are command
ed to love even our enemies, and to forgive
those who sin against us not only seven
times, but seventy times seven. Those
who fought and suffered in the war have
more kindly feelings toward the vanquish-
ed enemy, than have their associates who,
through their efforts, enjoyed immunity
from danger and peril. We firmly believe
that the soldiers of the Union are ready to
extend the right hand of fellowship to
every soldier in the Union regardless of
the side on which he fought. We would,
then, that the spirit of love and charity, of
peace and reconciliation, of patriotism and
devotion to the Union should mark the day.
We would that, on that day, the past may
be remembered only for its patriotic lessons
and warnings, the future only regarded for
its happy possibilities. We would that the
orators should teach justice and mercy and
the people do and act. We would have the
day so commemorated in spirit and in
form, that the soldiers who have gone be-
fore, may, from their bivouac on high, SEE
that they have not died in vain. Thus can
our living soldiers again aid ia forming a
more perfect Union. Thus will they show
themselves to be first in peace, las they have
already proved themselves first in war and
first in the hearts of their countrymen.
Thus will they both teach and act the true
gospel of peace and perfect Union.

st. Paul's Church, Vergennes.

Wednesday being the time appointed for
Paul's church, services were held at 1870
p. m. Great pains have been taken by
the rector in charge in regard 10 proper
decoration on all high festivals, and his
parishoners have entered into the good
work with great deal of enthusiasm. AT
no time since Easter has there been so
many floral offerings, and seldom have any
church trimmings been more tastefully ar
ranged. Among other conspicuous
plants was magnificent Washington ger
anium, covered with over one hundred and
twenty blossoms.
The altar was crowded with handsome
vases containing callas, verbcnas, gerani-
ums, fuschias, and other choice cut1lowers.
One vase contained wild flowers known as
Trilliums, or "lilics of Pentecost," while
splendid tulips were distributed among the
rest to give color
The services were conducted by Rev.
Mr.. Chaplin, assisted by Rev, J. II. Hop
kins, d. D., of Pittsburgh, n. y. The
bishop of the diocese administered the rite
of contirmt ton to nine making twenty one
persons in all confirmed this spring.
The bishop made some excellent remarks
in his sermon, appropriate to the season in
the church year and instructive to those
about joining the church. The church
was not as crowded as Oh previous occa-
sions, owing to the dampness and bad
walking.
After the confirmation service Mr.. H..

of Burlington, played the following selec-

THE SPIRIT OF THE DAY.

In another week Decoration Day will be
upon us. A day that ought and will be
observed with solemn ceremonies through
out the land. A day set apart for suitably
honoring the memory of those who gave
their all, even life itself, for their country.
Their patriotism and bravery we can never
let die. Being dead, they yet speak, and
they speak language solemn and impress
sve, language containing a noble cx-
ample, an impressive lesson. "Greater
love" Christ tells us, "hath no man than
this, that man lay down his life for his
friends Let us remember this, not only
On that particular day, but for all time.
Let us remember for whom they thus dis
played that greatest of love, for whom they
laid down their lives. Let us remember
that they counted their lives as nothing
when put into the scale against the life of
the country They gave their lives, not
for the north, not for the south, not for
the east nor for the west, but for the whole
country. In mere sectional strife, in a
contest for the supremacy of the north as
against the south, they would never have
filled soldiers graves they would never
have left home and friends, and exposed
themselves to the fatigues and discomforts
of the camp, the dangers and perils of the
field Had the contest been of that char
acter, they would now, reasoning as man
reasons, have been with us in the flesh.
Such contest would not have enticed
them. They battled and died for a re-
united country, a more perfect Union.
Dying they blessed God that they had a
country worth dying for. Dead, the sold
dag, type of that reunited country, that
restored Union, was their pail. We buried
them, Borrowing not as those without hope,
for we fondly believed that they had not
died in vain. The clash of arms is no
longer heard. A Union in name and form
was give us by their deaths and by theirs
and their comrades valor And yet they
have died In vain unless that Union is made
something more than a name, unless our
every thought is patriotic, unless that
Union of states is cemented by an Union of
hearts. II remains for us, their survivors,
TO determine whether all those sacrifices,
all this yalor, all these lives have been
sacrificed In vain. We would not If we
could, we could not if we would, forget
how and why they died. We would not
honor the rebel as the Union soldier. But
with malice toward none, with charity
fol- all we would that there should be a
more earnest endeavor "to heal up the
nations wounds" and to "do all which may
achieve and cherish just and lasting peace

The new organ has been but short
time in the church and, under the skilful
management of Mr.. Scribner, impressed all
who had the opportunity of listening.
Mr.. Chaplin, the rector, has been but a
few months with the parish, still he has
made host of friends, who try to assist
him in the parish work. II was through
his efforts that the new organ was procured
and even now he has making baptismal
font, which when completed will be as fine
specimen of work as can be found in New
England.

We frequently observe an almost complete
suspension OF the functions OF nutrition. The
machinery OF the body being nearly worn out,
the feeble stomach is unable TO digest and as
simulate food to nourish and repair the eX-
hausted frame and sustain the vital forces.
Such systems having feeble powers OF resist

which they rally with difficulty for want OF
constitutional vigor. Here DR.. Wheeler's Com

Mr.. EDITOR:
On looking over the CHRONICLE of Feb.
18th l noticed a communication from
Farmer" in which he objects to paying
taxes on land used for a highway and yet
he proposes to have the grass and weeds
removed from the same, at the expense
Of the public He holds the title, is the
owner and is benefited by the increased
value Of the land, and can see no reason
why it should not be taxed to him the
same as other property. His complaint
of double tax is evidently erroneous ::
if not, he should apply to the Board of
Supervisors for relief. Again while pro-
Tossing to be in favor of the live and let
live principle he calls Oh the farmers to
combine and put down high prices and
the middle men one and all. Can the
farmers commit more suicidal act than
to combine for the purpose of reducing
either the wages, or the value Of the pro-
ducts Of labor ? Is it probable that they
will find the attempt to become the con-
sumers Of their own productions profit
able enterprise Can we not more effect
ually secure home market by encourag-
ing all other trades. Their ambition to
place the best of plows on the market has
built up for John Deere & Co., a vast bust
ness. In the meantime many men have at
tempted to cram an inferior article on the
farmers and failed. Can the farmers
make and sell as good plow for less
money, without reducing the wages of
labor, from which we derive the legiti-
mate flow Of currency in circulation
Making plows is John Deere's business
he understands it. When we have mas
tered our calling, it may be we'll for US to
look for other worlds to conquer.
