To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-I am glad that you have empha-
sized the recent proclamation of President
Mckinley in earnestly urging every
minister of the gospel next Sunday to
offer up prayers of deFout thanksgiving
for the unprecedented success of our
arms on land and seq We see that the
tendency of the people generally is to
attribute our mar16lous success in this
conflict wholly to he skill and bravery
of our gallant ofic4s and men. In this
they are previously mistaken. The fact
Is God through Darcy, Sampson and
other brave officers nd men, is accom-
plishing the great t4fngs which Is no
less astonishing to ourselves than to
the world, and our h p exaltation Will
be maintained II we the right, and
further. I'VE will be puipped to defy
any NATION that pres les to rise up
against us
