"a. Memorial Services.

The members Of John A. Logan
Post. G. A. r., the w. r. c. and the
Sons Of Veterans assembled at the
Post room Sunday afternoon at ?
O'Clock. Having formed in column,
headed by the Fourth Regiment and
Post bands, and under the immediate
direction Of E. e.. Ebling, post
sdiutant, the line OF march TO the
First NJ. +. church was taken up
the Daughters OF Rebeeca joining
the column at the Odd Fellows
Temple. Arriving at the church
they were all seated in pews which
had been reserved in the front POr-
ton OF the room. Before the eXer-
cises commenced every seat had
been taken and Il was necessary To
bring in many chairs. The services
Of the Grand Army ritual were IOl-
lowed under the direction Of Post
Commander Crisis, the death roll
was read-with the drum beat at
each announcement, music was
furnished "a it, appropriate place by
the choir OF the NJ. F.. church.
After the Lords prayer had been
repeated by the audience and -
hymn from the choir, Rev. \. y.
See commenced with his eloquent
address in which he was closely fol-
lowed by his large audience, all
seeming deeply interested-One hour
and a quarter being consumed ia its
delivery. He took as his text the
two first verses Of the 18th chapter
Of the Epistle to the Romans, ~
follows:
I. Let every soul be subject unto
the highest powers. For there II no
power bat Of God: the powers that
lie are ordained Of God.
>. WhOsOever therefore resisteth
the power, resisteth the ordinance
Of God: aud they that resist shall
receive to themselves damnation.
To say that his remarks accorded
with the spirit OF the audience was
sufficiently evidenced 10y the strong
applause repeatedly given. lie
spoke elOquently from notes, and
told some Old-fashioned truths in
strong language. After dwelling for
q few moments upon the difference
between courage and herOism and
drawing apt illustrations upon each,
he proceeded To condemn that senti-
mentality that permitted the graves
Of the Confrderates Ia Ice decorated
with the same ceremonial and the
same solemRity a. those OF the
Union soldiers. He did not believe
that il the rebel soldier could come
To life for \ moment he would APP
prove of having the stars and stripes
posted over his grave; lac would ask
for the stars and bars. The speaker
was willing To be magnanimOus aud
forget the past, il the rebels would
allow them 10 do il. But they must
not come In their gray and under
the stars and bars. They must still
come a. penitents-nOt viciurs. The
elder warmed up over his subject,
until his remarks were ia he nature
OF a campaign speech. Appropriate
~, and ia well-chu~rn words, lac
took up the soldier record Of the
great citiZen-soldier, John y. Logan,
for whom the post was named which
conducted the services then heing
held. The applause which followed
more than once, in his reference Ia
Logan, Vas warm and demonstra-
tive. The good old hymn Of Ameri-
"a was sung at the close Of the adj
dress. after which benedictiOn-
when the column reformed and
marched back to Post hall, and
ranks broken.
