N. Johns Cburcb. Geor.ctovn.

At 81. Johns Church, Georgetown, the usual
Thanksgiving service Of the Episcopal Church
was held, aud a sermon preached by the rector
from the text, Psalms Gill;. 2-"Bless the Lord,
my soul, and forget not oil His benefit" I"
The speaker began by slludipg to the fact that
the annual observance Of Thanksgiving Day
by the nation was q recognition that, as .
people, we believed In an overruling Provi-
dence that con trolcd the dostinies Of nations,
and from whom came every good and perfect
gilt. After brief enumeration Of the various
blessings for which we should be thankfu ful, he
then passed to the consideration Of those
darker experiences through which we have
passed, aud which at first sight seem to make
Thanksgiving Day q mcciery-tbe desolating
pestilcnoe that has ceased only yesterday, the
different evils that have shown themselves in
various ways In our political history. How
are we to give thanks In view Of all the dis.
tress, the sorrow, and the wickedncss that are
50 real and so greatH This, after all, Ia tho
hard question which we have to answer to day
to show men why they must be thankful even
while they are i'll the midst OF personal or ma
tional caanities, aud to do this we must real
iEe fully these general principles First. that
the providence Of God Is not n capricious one,
ont Is ever a watchful, loving cure; that no
matter how hard 1t may seem 10 harmonize
this with appear nccs that IL Is soand Is easier
than 10 suppose that God changes with our
changing surroundings. Once let o man feel
that God is love aud Is yesterday, to-day, and
forever the same, and you have gone u great
way towards making him rest securely and
thankiuily until the temporary cloud Is re.
moved and the sun once more shines OH him in
its fuliness. And then again we are to keep In
nina TINS other principle: That God regards
our lives or tho life Of tho nation as whole I;
not made up of months aud years that are iso-
iatcd, having no connection except mere jux-
Imposition, like beads upon string, but bound
closely together, each one affecting all the
others, so that what may happen at any given
time must be looked at in Its relation to all tho
rest Thus will the sorrow or distress which
seems so unmitigated when seen in its concen-
tratedness and alone be discovered working out
only good for us from lis after effects and in its
relation to all the rest of our experience. The
speaker closed with u reference to the Christian
hcrOism and devotion shown by many during
tie pestilonco In the South, and held II up rs a
matter for which to be deeply thankful.
