WESTI’ORT.

Vigilant engine was put to a good test a
few days since, and proved the powers of
which she is possessed. The boys “broke
her down" through two lengths of leather
hose first, bursting both lengths, and then
withthe new rubber hose through which she
sent a stream upward a distance more than
sixty feet. In case of fire west side property
owners can rely on Vigilant.

Mr. Thomas .Galbraith, who has for the
past ten years snperintended the late Morris
Ketcbu'm's farm, is about to leave for Jobs—
town, N. J ., where he will superintend Mr.
Pierre Lorrillard's stock Farm. While there
he will take an interest in Parole as well as
in the pay roll. '

A mmument has been erected in Christ
Church Cemetery to the memory of the late
Margaret Jackson. It is a suggestive piece
of work in the form of a cross, and was
executed by Mr. George P. Jennings of this
place. _ _

Mrs. Jennie Robinson, while leaning over
the railing of our village bridge the other
day, dropped from her handkerchief a silver
dollar. It fell into the river but was recover—'
ed by Mr. Parkie Lewis. A greater fall and
more rapid rise in the specie of our country
has seldom been witnessed in these parts.

Mr. Zalmon Sanford is the fortunate pos—
sessor of a- copy of Vol 1, No. 1, 0f the New
York Daily Herald,—styled “Morning Her-
ald,” published by James Gordon Bennett &.
Co., 20 Wall Street, N. Y., Wednesday,May
6, 1835. In his salutatory the great editor
announces that his next issue will be on the
following Monday, and goes on to say—“1n
the commencement of an enterprise of the
present kind, it is unnecessary to say 'much
—'We know.’ says the fair Ophelia, ‘what
we are, but know not what we may be.’ "
Among the curiosities of the number are
Horace Greeley’s bid for public patronage of
his paper, “The New Yorker," and “Bear's
Chart of the World," indorscd by such cit-y
journals as the Mirror, Com. Advertiser, Sun:
Transcript, Truth and Old Countryman.

The testimonial from citizens of this place
to Mr. Patrick Murphy, late station agent at
Saugatuek, and now a conductor on the N.
Y., N. H. A: II. R. R., alluded to recently
in this column, has been presented. The

gift is a chronometer of gold, massive and-

very handsome. The pleased recipient may
now "keep watch" of time, but like the rest
of us, he can “make no note of time but by
its loss.” '

As showing diversity of opinion as to the
tendency of dry weather to aficct the mar—
ket price of hay, two good judges,relying
on their "experience in such matters, have
laid a wager, the claim being on the part of
one that in less than six months from June
190h hay will be worth $40 a ten; the other
that bay will "not exceed $20. An ovster
supper, which it is believed the 840 men will
have to pay, will settle the dispute.

The public schools closing Friday 18th,
and not reopening till Monday, September
60h, will give the scholars at longefiacation
than they have enjoyed in many a year.

The census ennmerators, who have nearly
completed their duties, good humOredly,
though unofficially say, the population of
W estport is about 3,600. Among the curious
things discovered by the gentlemen, is the
exact number of empty dwellings in town,
and hereafter, people seeking places and pre-
tending to find none,may be sent in the right
direction to obtain their object. Green’s
Farms district leads in the number of im-
proved acres.

The good people of Assumption church

will hold their annual picnic in Mrs. Page’s
grove, as usual J uly 5th, the 4th coming on
Sunday. \

News of the death of Charles R. Youle,
formerly of this place, in Colorado, June 17,
is received. Deceased was a young man of
promise, and left the place of his childhood
for a western home,full of hope. An stilet-
ed mother and sister remain to mourn his
loss. - «

Mrs. Eliza Batterson, relict ‘ of the late
W illiama Batterson, who died June 12in her
77th year, was'buried Monday, J one 14, in
Green’s Farms cemetery. Rev. Mr. Relyea
conducted the funeral ceremony.

Catharine Jennings, who died Thursday
in her 82d year, was one of the ancient land-
marks of the place. The list of aged ones
is growing rapidly smaller.

Afters three years’ business sojourn in
Springfield, Ohio, Mr. C. L. Wheeler returns
to the home of his father, Mr. E. S. Wheeler
of Saugatuck, for a short visit. '

When the Adelphi reached her dock fif—
teen minutes before six, one day last week, a
Westport passenger had the cheek to find
fault because he had to wait twenty minutes
for the railroad train. That man wouldn’t
be suited with hanging.

In the roadway leading from King street
to Stony Brook, a distance of one~half a
mile, there are noticed at 'this time millions
of toads about the size of asilver five cent
piece. Why they should appear in that 10-
cality now is amystery. Investigation shows
them to be lively but very good natured
toads. with no inclination to importune, and
only manifesting a claim, (like the Parallel),
to right of way, temporarily. and “just for
greens." us it were, over the various acres of
real estate encountered by them. So far as
known they have inflicted no injury upon
persons or property, though a fcw of the
superstitious and narrow-minded have fled
with fright or barricaded their premises.
These things have had no effect on the toads
which continue their journey towards the
pole. Conjecture gives Poplar Plains, and
Weston wheat and rye fields as their stopping

‘ place, from whence, by and by, knowing the
productiveness of those fields, may " come
back to us some of the largest and fattest
toads ever dreamed of in our philosophy.

The army worm has appeared in Green’s
Farms and elsewhere in' town, also at Green-
field Hill where, on the farm of Mr. Frede—

_ rick Bronson serious havoc has been made.
Whole fields of wheat and rye have been
prematurely harvested and consigned to: the
manure heap to save them from the. pest.
The worm has attacked meadows also and
mowing machines alone have been able to
head off the invader. At the Farms and in
Compo district acres of onions are lying
waste and various other crops in like man—
ner. Farmers fearing the result are cutting
their grass earlier than usual to save what
must prove at best less than half a crop.
What with the worms as described, bugs
among the potatoes and weavel on the’wheat,
our people have in prospect enough to con—
tend with without giving mueh attention to
the fate of nations, or which of the two
candidates are likely to get elected President
of the Union. _ .

The schooners Charlestown, from Port-
land, Maine, and Remsen, from Albany,
with timber and lumber for H. Staples, dis-
charged cargoes about the same time last
week making things lively, and recalling for
the nonce some of the old time activity
characterizing Mr. Staplcs’ place of business.

Our esteemed friend, Mr. II. W. Lyon, as
correspondent of the daily Il'arwwr, describes
the movement of loads on our back lot as
being a sort of judgment on us for what he
terms our long continued good words utter-
ed in the Gazsrra. Thanks! Thclfirst time
we haveachance to again speak of toads
we shall hope it may be on account of good
words and deeds which we know our friend
is capable of saying and doing. By‘chance
toads may not be be bad institutions.

That “we never miss the water till the
well runs dry," seems likely to have limited.
cal and very serious interpretation here
unless rain soon falls. Mr. S. H. Alden lies
dangerously ill at the house of Mrs. George
Blackman. PAUL.

Senator Hoar on Garfield.

A rebeplhiii iins tendered to Senator Hour
by the Republicans of Worcester, Mass., -
Saturday evening. The senator made a
speEch, in the course of which he referred to
the efforts made to secure the re-nomination
of ‘- eral Grant, and added:

B , my friends,with my full concurrence,
with your full concurrence, the convention
at Chicago came to another‘conclusion. And
I not only say with my full concurrence, but
I am willing to say to you that one of the
five or six supreme moments of my life,
when the delights of great periods of time
seem to be crowded and concentrated into a
single moment, was that instant when I saw
coming out of that confusion and turmoil
and storm of passion and conflict, the result,
as the ballot gradually was announced, to
which the convention finally chine [loud ap-
plause], the nomination of GSneral Garfield.
{Prolonged appléuse]. Accepted salt is in
the beginning by all classes and shades of
Republicans and of patriots, it will grow in
public favor as the canvass goes on. Just
think for a moment of the various qualifica—
tions for this great office which this man
combines! Do you want a statesman P Do
you demand that your president shall be
something more than a successful soldier,
that he shall have experience in civil affairs ?
No president of the United States since John
Quincy Adams began to bring to the presi-
dential office, when he entered upon it, any—
thing like the experience in statesmansbip of
James A. Garfield. [Applause]. Look over
the list. Grant, Johnson and Taylor brought
great fame as soldiers; but of whom can you
think sificc John Quincy Adams entered
upon that great office who had, when he took
it, such a civil career to look back upon as
that of General Garfield? Since 1864 you
cannot think of a question, sir, which has
been debated in' congress or discussed
before the great tribunal of the American
people, in regard to which you will .not
find, if you wish instruction, the argu—
ment on 0 side stated, and stated in
almost every instance better than anybody
else in some speech made in the House of
Representatives or on the bustings by Mr.
Garfield. Do you demand a man of firm,
resolute adherence to what he thinks right,
in spite of popular delusion, popular passion,
fear of the loss of popularity or the attrac-
tions of personal ambition? Just remember
how, when Republican and Democrat alike
in the State of Ohio went crazy 'over the
financial hercsies, this man stood with his
feet on a rock, demanding and vindicating
an honest policy. [Applause]. Why,
about six years ago I sat next, during
a congress, one of the leading Republican
representatives from the State of Ohio, who
had an elaborate table to show how badly
.the West had been treated in the matter of
currency,b‘y showing how much each portion
of the country had in the way of bank bills
authorized to be isssued to the square mile,
to show we had a great deal more in New
England than they had inOhio, and in the
southwest they were a great deal worse off,
even, than in Ohio. In regard to the great
questions of human rights, General Garfield
has been as inflexible. He was thesuccefir
of Joshua R. Gidding, the man upon whom
the mantle of that old prophet descended,
but still he has never been partisan. The
best statement and argument in favor of the
reform of the civil service will be found in
the speeches of General Garfield. He was
one of the earliest and foremost advocates of.
building up the educational institutions in'
the South at, the national charge.

Do you wish, in addition to a statesman,te
pay honor to that character most deserving
of honor in this republic, the volunteer citi-
zen soldier? [Applause]. Here is a man
who enlisted in the beginning of the war,
who became from a subordinate ofilcer a
major general, always trusted by the best
commanders—Thomas and Rosecrans—al-
ways in the thickest of the fight, always
conducting successfully dangerous and difii—
cult expeditions, coming home crowned with
military laurel and military glory. Do you
wish in the republic to honor the man whose
career vindicates the system of republican
government; the man who for himself,with-
out the aid of rank, or of wealth, or of
family connection, or of external aid, raises
himself from the humblest to the letiest
place? Do you think that Mr. Tilden, sitting
like a spider in Grammercy Park, spinning
his web and wrecking hi ailroads,can enter
into competition with the simple and touch-
ing story of this canal boy and this carpen-
ter? It is a life like that of Abraham Lin—
coln and like that of Daniel Webster, which
appeals to every affectionate chord in the
heart of the American citizen. [Applause]
So, my friends, I think I have at least this
claim to a friendly greeting at your hands-—
-—That I am one of a body of men who had
the good fortune to do well the work which
the Republican party entrusted to them.
[Applause] .

 

General Hawley Interviewed.

General Joseph R. Hawley is a firm be-
liever in the success of the ticket nominated
at Chicago. “It is an extraordinary strong
one—one that will command the support of
the republican party," he said this morning
to a Graphic reporter in the Astar House,
while hurriedly making final preparations for
his departure for Bremen.

“What effect, in your opinion, will the
Credit Mobilier story have on the canvas ?”
was asked.

“It won’t amount to this," said the general,
snapping his fingers. “Ithad forgotten all
about these charges against General Garfield
until revived; and I speak from a personal
knowledge when I say there is nothing in
them. I have known General Garfield up—
ward of twelve years and I am satisfied a
more honorable, conscientious and upright
man than he does not live. He is utterly
incapable of steeping to degrade himself by,
such methods as are charged against him.
His explanation of the charges long ago laid
before the public c0mpletely refute his
enemies. One of the very best arguments
.to show the standing of a public man is the
support given him by his constituents.” If he
were as black as he has been painted by his
enemies—and what public man is Without
them—would not the people of his district
rejected him at the polls? Do they do it?
No, they knew him too t oroughly, and
evinced their confidence in s integrity by
sending him back to the house with the
tremendous majority of 10,000. Is
this the verdict of sensible,intclligent men
who believe him to be a man guilty of cor—
ruption ?” .

“Will Connecticut give Garfield and Arthur
her vote P” .

“I am confident my state will give a sub—
stantial republican majority. Morover, I am
satisfied that the republicans will carry every
northern state."

the southern states ?"

“While I am satisfied that we have a ma-
jority'in'some of the southern states, we will
not be allowed to get them, owing to demo-
cratic manipulations and the continuation of
the shot-gun policy."

“There is considerable speculation just
now as to the issues of the canvass. What
in your judgment will be the great one i’"

""l‘he only issue will be the history of the
two parties."

“Who will be the choice of the Cincinnati
convention ?” ' i

“There you have me," responded the gen—
eral laughingiy. “Of one thing, however, I
am satisfied, whoever the democrats put up
will be beaten. It may be Tilden, Seymour,
Hancock, Jewitt, or any of the score in the
race; defeat is inevitrble in any event."

General Hawley goes abroad to attend to
matters connected with the American Ex-
change [cstablishment at No., 449 Strand,
London, and will return home in August to
actively participate in .the canvass.

It should be bomb in mind by the mud—
throwers that General Garfield is to be elect-
ed by Republican votes, and thatDemocratic
abuse never yet won a Republican voter to

 

 

the democratic side.

7 Another severe outbreak of scaflet fever,
which occurred near Manchester, Eng, has
been traced by the health officers to the dis~
tribution of the infection through the milk
supply. . , .
The finding of a petrified shark at the La
Panza gold diggings, Cal., is reported. Its
original length was about eight feet. A
petrified whale, some forty feet in length,
is imbedded in the earth in the same locality.
Some experiments with reference to the
spontaneous combustion of various materials,
such as 'waddiug, raw flax, hemp, sponge,
wood dust, and the “waste of silk, wool and
cotton spinning, appear to demonstrate the
important fact that small quantities-really
take fire sooner than large ones.

 

who .had been a soldier dreamed that he
heard a signal-gun, saw the proceedings for
displaying the signals, heard the bustle of
the. streets, the assembling of troops, etc.
Just then be was aroused by his wife, who
had dreamed precisely the same dream with
the addition that she saw the enemy land
and a friend of her husband killed, when she
awoke in a fright. This occurred at Edin-
burgh at a time when a French invasion was
feared, and it had been decided to fire a sig—
nal—gun at the first approach of the fee.
The dream was caused. it appears, by the
fall of a pair of tongs in the room above;
and the excited state of the public mind was
quite sufficient‘to account for both dreams
turning on thesnme subject. ’

In 522 cases of damage to buildings by
lightning four were found in which rods
were used to carry off the electric fluid. An
investigation of the four cases by a scientific
expert has shown the conductors to have been
in every case faulty. -

At Osnabruck, Germany, building stone is
manufactured on a large scalefrom the slag
of blast furnaces. Six million bricks Were
delivered by one firm during last year. The
artificial stone is valuable for ventilation, as
'it permits the passage of several times as
much air as ordinary building stone. It has
the advantage over burnt clay bricks of be-
ing much less easily saturated with the mois-
ture.

Some time 'since a manufacturer had 0c—

.casion to construct a machine for cutting

bars of cold hardened steel. For this pur—
pose be mounted a disc made of soft wrought
iron upon a horizontal axis, so as; to be ro—
tated with great velocity. With a moderate
speed no cutting was produced. But on
causing the periphery ofthc disc to move at
the rate of about 25,000 feet per minute the
steel was rapidly cut by the soft iron.
Sparks were thrown off in a state effusion,
and became welded together as they feel,
although both the disc and the steel bar were
very slightly heated.

A naturalist in Brazil tells of an expe—
dition he made to one of the islands of the
Amazon to shoot spoon-bills. ibises, and
other birds. His design was completely
baffled by a wretched little sandpiper that
preceded him, continually uttering his tell—
tale cry, which at Once aroused all the birds
within ' hearing. Throughout the day did
this. individual bird 'continue his self-im-
posed duty of sentinel to others, effectually
preventing the approach of the fowler to the
game, and yet managing to keep out of the
range of his gun. ‘

The oldest working scientist in the world
is M. Chevreul of Paris, who in his ninety-
fifth year, has just commenced a course of
lectures on chemistry. , , .

Late experiments have shown a slightey in-
creased tenacity in iron when magnetised.

During en earthquake in 1819, an Area of
two thousand square milefi about the Delta
of the Indus became an inland sea; and the
fort and ,village‘ of Sindree sunk 'unitl the
tops of the houses-were just above the water.
Five and a half miles from Sindree, parallel
with the sunken territory, a region fifty miles
long and ten miles broad was elevated ten
feet above the delta. In reference to its or-
igin the natives call this the Mound of God.
In 1838, the fort of Sindree was still h'alf
buried in the sea; and during an earthquake
in 1845, the Sindree Lake was turned into a
salt marsh. ,

Built upon piles in the midst of the lakes

occupied by prehistoricman. In these dwell-
ings, which are assigned to the era of pol—
ished stone or Neolithic age, many interest-
ing discoveries have been made and are yet
being made. Three kinds of wheat—one
an Egyptian variety—have been found; also
two kinds of barley, two kinds of millet, the
remains of fruit—such as apples and pears
V—peas, flax, and weeds. For their cattle
and swine these ancient lake-dwellers seem
to have laid up winter fodder in the shape
of acorns and beechnuts. They made cloth
of their flax, and could weave it into orna-
mental patterns. From an examination of
the human remains found in these curious
habitat-ions and in the sepulchral caves, the
most eminent geologists are of thefbelief that

race as the Basque—speaking people who are
stillzto be found in the north of Spain and the
south of France. Estimates of the date of
the Neolithic period in Switzerland give to
these relics of a remote civilization a prob
able age of not less than seven thousand
years. ~

 

An Editor’s Troubles.

justice. He is lucky if he possess a self-
approving conscience. Very rarely does a
voice of approval reach him from the out-
side. Good-natured friends who write to
congratulate him on his last number, invar-
iably append some irritating “but” which
turns the praise into bitterness. It is an ex—
cellent number on the whole, but why did
he not draw his pen through such and such ?
And how ‘cau he allow So-andso to go on
writing on subjects on which he. does not
know the merest rudiments? When people
are displeased with anything in their period-
ical, they lay the blame upon the editor;
when anything strikes them as particularly
good, they wonder who wrote it. This is as
it should be, but the poor editor,—to whom
it may be, some touch of the goodness is
due, and who has been compelledto retain
passages intensely objectionable to his own
taste, out of regard for the feelings of the
services of a valuable member of his staff—-
is apt to think that hard measure is dealt out
to him.

Let no one suppose that slander and abuse
of presidential candidates is a campaign
characteristic of modern birth. The follow—
ing extract from the private diary of John
Quincy Adams under date of the 31st of
August, 1824, shows how he consoled him-
self for the abuse he was then undergoing as
the federal candidate for the presidency :

"The bitterness and violence of presiden-
tial electioneeringjncreascs as the time ad-
vances. It seems as if every liar in the
country ‘was at work day-and night to destroy
my character. It does ~not surprise me, be-
cause I have seen the same species of ribaldry‘
year after year heaped upon my father, and
for along time upon Washington. I have
finally concluded to take a month of holiday
to visit my father and dismiss care.”

The census returns for this city are now
so well in hand that the total can be given
with considerable precision. The population
of the metropolis is 1,207,215. This marks
a gain of 254,923 in ten years, and of 1,-
004,626 since 1830. In a quarter of a
century the population of the city has
doubled. At the same time all the metropol‘
itan suburbs have increased and multiplied
until New York as a centre of population
ranks next to London. Brooklyn with a
population of over 500,000, retains the place

as the third city in the Union—New York

Celebrated Safes,

In purchasing a. Safe, we wish to call your
attention to some of the important advantages
our Safes possess over all others, and which
malée them the cheapest and best Safes now
ma 6. . A

1st. Our “PATENT Insma Bor'r Wonk?
consists in placing the bolts and locks on the
inside of the door (as shown in the cut above
where they are at all times accessible, an
can be cleaned and kept in order, and thus
prevent them from unexpectedly locking you
out. Inall other Safes the bolts are placed
next the outside plate of iron, being covered
completely by the filling, consequently im-
possible to oil or clean them‘ without digging
out the filling, which is expensive, besides
losing the use of the Safe several days. 7 As
the filling in our Safes is between the locks
and bolts and the outside plate of the door,
in most cases we can unlock our safes on the
combination after they have passed through a
severe fire, which saves breaking them open.
2d. Our “PATENT Hmcnn CAP” consists
of the back plate of the door being hung on
hinges, and fastened by a thumb-screw,which
enables one to have access to the locks and
bolts by simply removing the thumb-screw.
3d. While other safe-makers use three
wheel locks on their fire-proof safes (reserv-
ing the best four-wheel locks for bank. Safes),
we put on our FOUR-WHEEL Locus on- all
safes, from the smallest to the largest, and for
simplicity and durability cannot be excelled.
4th. All our Safes are IRON-LINED INSIDE,
instead of wood-lined as in other safes, which
enables us to use the the greatest amount of
water in our filling without danger of the
Sife’s being damp. All corners of the Safes
are secured. with angle iron, which, together
w'ith the very hard nature of our filling, pre-
vents them from injury from falling, or fall—
ing walls or timbers. Our Safes have THREE
FLANGES instead of "single or double as in
others, and are made with and without inside
doors. In the great Boston fire our Safes had
the champion record, as was fully proved at
the time, to these important improvements
do we owe our success and the great popular-
ity our safes have attained throughout the
country. After that great fire we published
a complete list of our Safes exposed,those that
failed to preserve their contents, besides those
that were successful, and for months chal—
lenged our-competitors to follow- our example
which they would not do, as they knew that
by so doing they would only assist us in dem-
onstrating to the world the superiority of our
Safes, and our claim to the champion record.
Although that Great Fire so conclusively
proved the superiority of our Safes to resist

,intense heat, we believed that we could im-

prove them, and we have, therefore, since
that time, increased the thickness of the walls,
added to the number of flanges, and strength-
ened them in various ways, until we now
manufacture a Safe better than ever before,
and unequalled for its excellence. It has been
our constant aim to make the BEST SAFE that
can be produced, believing that, especially in
purchasing a safe to keep that which may
have cost a lifetime to accumulate, the best is‘
decidedly the cheapest. In these dull times
it is the custom of many safe—makers to man.
nfaeture several grades of. cheap safes, and-
reeommend that which can be sold the cheap-
est, without regard to quality, and many
safes are now in. use that are painted. finely
outside, but are worthless to preserve their
contents from fire. We make but one class
of Safes, which is the best we know how to
produce; P-;nd for descriptive catalogue.

From the National Republican.
General Garfield on the Assas-
sination of Lincoln.

There aremany who remember the scenes
and incidents connected with the assassina-
tion of Abraham Lincoln. The nomination
for the presidency of the Hon. James A.
Garfield calls to mind the following speech
made by him in the House of Representa-
tives on the first anniversary of that tragic
event—April 14. 1866. Those who listened
to his eloquent words feel that there is a fit-
ness in his exaltation to the chief magistracy
\of this great nation, that the consecration
made in the shadow Of that great sorrow
may yet be fully consummated.

On the assembling of the House the 14th
of April, 1866, Mr. Garfield moved, imme-
diately after the reading'of the minutes that
the House adjourn, and said: “This day will
besadly memorable so long as this nation
shall endure, which God grant may be till
the last syllable of recorded time, when the
volume of human history shall be sealed up
and delivered to the omnipotent. judge. In
all future time on the recurrence of, this day
»I doubt not that the citizens of this republic
will meet in solemn assembly to, reflect on
the life and character of Abraham Lincoln
and the awful tragic event of April 14, 1865
-—an event unparalleled in the history of
nations. .

It is eminently proper that this house
should this day place upon its record a ”me—
moriai of that event. The last fiveyears
have been marked by wonderful‘develop—
ments of individual character. Thousands
of our people before unknown to f ame have
taken their places in history crowned with
immortal honors. In thousands of humble
houses are dwelling heroes and patriots whose
names shall never die. But the greatest
among all these great developments were the
character and fame of Abraham Lincoln,
whose loss the nation still depletes. His
character is aptly described in the words of
England’s great laureate as he traces the
step upward of some

"Divinely gifted man,

Whose life in low estate began,

And on a simple village green, .

Who breaks his birth's invidionsbars
And grasps the skirts of happy chance, ‘
And breasts the blows of circumstance

And grapples with his evil stars ;

Who makes by force his moral known

And lives to clutch the golden keys

To mold a mighty state’s decrees
And shape the whisper of the throne ;
And moving up from high to higher,

Becomes,on Fortune’s crowning slope,

The pillar of a people's hope,

The centre of a world’s desire. "

Such a life and character will be treasured
forever as the sacred possession of the
American people and of mankind. In the
great drama of the rebellion there were two
acts. The first was the War with its battles.
its sieges, victories and defeats, its suffer—
ings and tears. That act was closing one
year ago to-night, and just as the curtain was
rising upon new characters and new cvents,’
the evil spirit of rebellion in the fury of de‘
Spair nerved and 'directed the hand of the
assassin to strike down the chief character
in both acts. It was no one man who killed
Abraham Lincoln. It was the embodied
spirit of treason and slavery, inspired with
fearful and despairing hate, that struck him
down in the moment of the nation’s suprem-
est joy. Ab, sir, there. are times in the‘ his-
tory of men and nations when they stand so
near the veil that separates mortals from the
immortals, time from eternity,and men from
their God, that they can almost hear the
breathings and feel the pulsations of the
heart of the infinite. Through such a time
has this nation passed. When 250,000 brave
spirits have passed from, the field of honor
through that thin veil to the‘ presence of
God, and when at last its parting folds ad-
mitted the martyred president to the com-
pany of the dead heroes of the republic, the
nation stood so near the veil that the whis-
pers of God were heard by the children of
men. Awe-stricken by‘his voice, the Amer-
ican people knelt in tearful reverence and
made solemn covenant with God and each
other that this nation should be saved from
its enemies; that all-its glories should be re-
stored, and on the ruins of slavery aad‘trea.
son the temples of freedom and justice
should be built and remain forever. It re-
mains for us, cansecrated by that great event
and under that great covenant with God, to
keep that faith, to go forward in the great
work until it shall becompleted. Following
the lead of. that great man and obeying the
behests of God, let us remember

“He has sounded forth his trumpet that shall

never call retreat ;

He is sifting out the hearts of men before his

judgment seat;

Be swift, my soul, to answer him ; be jubi-
lant, my feet,

For God is marching on."
