A Prayer Full of Patriotism and
 Love, by Rev Father LenahRn.

80 o'clock the exercises being Tn com memoration of Memorial day. The open ing prayer, by the Rsv Father Lenehan of St Francis church. was very impressive. Space will not admit of our giving more than a synopsis: Father Lenehan said: We pray thee almighty and eternal God. who through Jesus Christ hast revealed thy glory to all nations. to preserve the works of thy mercy; that thy church being spread through the whole world may continue with unchanCing z faith in the confession of thy name" He prayed that the chlldren and those amongst us who are appointed 10 tN ercise the functions of the holy ministry might be endowed with heavenly know ledge, sincere zeal and sanctity of life: that the administration of the president Ot the United States, the members of congress, our state officers and our legislators and judges, might be conducted in righteous ness. ever wlth a due respect for virtue and religion, and the restraining of vice and immortality. He also prayed that our warden and burgesSes. the honored gentle men of the board of eiucati n. and all other officials who are appointed to guard our political and temporary welfare, might be enabled by the help of the Almighty. to discharge the duties of their respective poSltlo ns with honesty and ability. He prayed to the Lord of mercy to remember the sou s of departed heroes who lost their lives op the battle folds, through love of country; also those who were fortunate enough to return, but have since departed, and asked for himself and all others now hvlug a share in the eternal kir gdom; that all uIIgat have d love for our native land, the only free country on Gods footstool here below {; for our country'S il $, and our ever being ready to defend it and give the last drop of our blood in its defense; that all the children present may become noble women and honorable men. and so live through hfe that when called to depart all may hear the beautiful words: Well done, good and faithful servant, Enter into the kingdom of heaven and the possession of the beatlfic vision" The programme, which was published in the DEMocRAr, is belpg carried out.
