 Divine Service.
 Captain John G. Murray, chaplain of the regiment, delivered an eloquent sermon to the soldiers yesterday afternoon. The mid de tier of seats in the grandstand were occupied by the soldiers, and fully one thousand visitors from the city occupied the seats on each side of the boys. Troop D, under command of Captain J. B. Morson, attended the services in a body. The congregation joined in singing several hymns, accompanied by George. P. Jack son the cornetist.
 In his introductory remarks Captain Murray stated that the colonel had in formed him that the church call was not obligatory and he expressed his gratifca- ton at the large attendance of the boys. He said he was glad to talk to the soldiers in the camp that bears the name 1t does You have a camp worthy of the regiment and regiment worthy of the name of the camp"
 Captain Murray took his text from the GlSVeIftH verse Ol lIlc lIiiiO CildPltI Ol VIlt Book of Exodus, which reads, And Moses said unto God, who am I, that should gc unto Pharoah, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt He said that he selected these words be- cause they suggest personality and indi viduality.
 Continuing he said the first questions are, "Who am I? in connection with my country? Who am I in connection with myself? All these things should be con. sidered by the citizen soldiery. Captain Murray then recalled the case of Benedict Arnold. the traitor. He said | he died in London in an attic, and the attending porter asked him on his dying bed to tell him of his home and country, and Arnold said: My country I have forsaken, and if I were to go home the walls of the buildings would bow down in shame.'
 He brought his remarks to a close by impressing upon the young soldiers the responsibility that rests upon them, in the service and in their homes.
