TUANhSG{TING.

The wear which this day closes. as n day of
reverent retrospect, has been one Of the most
eventful and most solemn in the history OF the
American people. We are still so near to the
dread incidents which any review of the past
twelve months must first bring into the mind,
that they may be said, in truth, to cast their
shadow upon the day. 1t is less than two
months since the earth closed over the coffin OF
Garfield, and not even the crackle of fools
laughter in the Washington courtroom can
make Itself heard, while the Nation gravely
ponders the lesson of that mOurnful time, 1t
has been a year of intense excitement i'll politl-
cal affairs, year when the institutions of the
country were subjected to sudden and terrible
strain, which they bore with that silent strength
which is the wonder of the world and the pride
of all Americans year, otherwise, of peace
and plenty, of steady progress and growth in
material interests, and of abundant cause for
gratitude for the countless blessings of life in
land where freedom is the heritage of nil, and
prosperity is the rule and poverty the excep-
ton.
The citizen who does not leave his politics
and his patriotism outside of his prayers, may
reflect in all reverence that in the past year he
has seen the people pass through the purifying
fire of a National bereavement, and has seen
them emerge stronger in their devotion to
American principles and to the highest ideals
of Sational life than before; that he has seen
the Government ride through the aSsasslna-
ton of one President and the installation OF
another, without jar and without moment
of panic anywhere; and he may fifty use TINS
day to resolve again within himself that the
blessings which he enjoys shall be handed down
through all generations to come, ana that gov
"crnmcnt of the people, by the people ana Tor
d" the ucoplc shall not perish from The earth
