throughout the country to unite nt o o'clock
Ii religious services, demonstrating that the
union Of civi! and religious liberty is now so
complete that men of every faith meet under
n common flag Mt tho call of rector, rabbi
pastor Or minister to return thanks to the
common God Of the Jew and the Christian
for the liberties we enjoy AT 8 o'clock ull
the bells of the city will peal, and all the
churches will be open for religious services.
1t is to be hoped this will be the case in every
part of tho United States. as DR. Provost,
bishop Ct New York and chaplain of the SEN
ate, ccnductcd the services 100 years ago, so
Bishop Potter, of New York, assisted 10y the
Rev Dr.. Morgan Dix, rector OF Trinity and
St. Pnuls church, will conduct the services
on the morning of April 80
.. The army committee will then take
charge Of tho president and party who will
be escorted to the steps of the sub-treasury,
at the corner of Wall and Nassau streets, but
looking towards Broad, where the formal
literary exercises will be held, beginning at
half past 10. Tho Rev. Richard S Storrs

Grafton Of the day. President Harrison will
pronounce the bencdiction.

view tho procession from tho steps of the sub
treasury building by the Washington statue,
but as this would require the somewhat un-
military movement of breaking files to the
left in narrow Wall street, it was decided
that he should review from the stand erected
on Broad street opposite. By this latter it
was found TINT were even QUO half of the
parade to pass tho reviewing stand the entire
portion of lower Now York would be blocked
with civic and military organizations and
spectators The roview will, therefore, take
place i'll the broader streets and larger
squares where it can be witnessed by 2,0OO-
COO people, If so many arc present Gen
Sheridan was originally designated rs grand
marshal Since his decease TINT honor has
been most appropriately conferred on his
official successor, Maj. Gen. schofieltl.
