THREE BISHOPS SPEAK.
The United Episcopal Choirs Of the City
Furnish Music at st. Andrews.

The United Episcopal Choirs of the City
Furnish Music at st. Andrews.
St. Andrews church vas crowded on
Thursday evening. the occasion being the
celebration of Columbian Day Three
bishops and the united choirs OF the
Episcopal churches and all the Episcopal
congregations of this city participated.
The bishops were: Right Rev Drs
Coleman, Perry Of Iowa, and Sessums Of
Louisiana, and the clergy, Revs Messrs.
Littell, d. D., Henry, Bartlett, Ham
mond, Dunlap, Coleman, Berghaus, Miller
and Sherman.
Bishop Coleman in his brief remarks
said that the inspiring service was fit
ting contribution from Wilmington to
national celebration, and that we are
lneal descendants of the Church
of England. to which, under God, this
land is chiefly indebted for those civil
and religious institutions which are our
priceless heritage, and we are the repre-
! sentatives Of a church that has always
been loyal TO the powers that be.
Bishop Perry, of Iowa, contended that
America owed nothing to Columbus or to
/ Spain, or to Rome, that the real discoverer
Of America was Cabot and it was a mer-
ciful Providence that diverted the course
of Columbus so that instead of America
receiving Christianity under the auspices
of the Bishop of Rome it received it
from the Church of England While
only one Catholic, and an honored one,
Charles Carroll of Carrollton, was found
among the signers Of the Declaration Of
Independence, there were at least thirty
five churchmen.
Bishop Sessums, of Louisiana, deliv-
cred an ecclesiastical oration. He dwelt
upon the birth and growth Of nanons,
and he spoke Of the connection between
idea church and state, and deprecated the
of those who wonld separate religious
from civic life. He showed the causes
that led TO the failure of some nations
The true idea of liberty and freedom is
not to be found in the assertion Of ones
prerogatives and rights, but in the sub
ordination of these TO the common wei
fare. The nation was not made by
Washington, Jefferson or Hamilton, but
by God himself, working in His creatures
through the light and power that COM
alone from Him.
