 Decoration day occurring on Sunday, many sermons on that day will be likely to be on themes in harmony with it. It will be so here. The sermon will be founded on the text found in 1st Chroni- cles 5 :22, ''There fell down many slain, because the war was of God'' The topic derived from it is. war settles The war of Lhe covenant people, through the bat tie here recorded, settled things for these border tribes for nearly six hundred years. This was final battle, as much as Marathon of Waterloo. The great Rebellion settled two things, slavery and the unity of the government. Slavery was it's cause and it abolished it forever. The idea of state sovereignty received it's death blow, nor is it likely that any state will hereafter have the presump- tion to withdraw from the Union The boys in blue decided the question that as one government we had a right to be. Thus fundamental fact was settled. We are one nation from the Penobscot to the Sacramento, from the Great
 Lakes to the Gulf. The whole country is our country. We share in it's com-
 mon glory. These facts are wrought out with other practical things in the sermon for May 30.
