if cent:eaten, American Slavery, has
been cast out, although here and there a
iepraved politician takes it up to see If
he can't gnaw something off it. , We are
floating off farther from the possibility of
sectional strife.
No possibility ocivil war. But about
foreign invasion I am not so certain.
When I spoke against war I said moth-
lug against self defense. An inventor
told me that he had invented a style of
weapon which could be used its self de-
tense, but not in aggressive warfare. I
said, "When ' you get the nations to
adopt that weapon, you have introduced
the millennium." I have no right to go

There is no room on this continent
for any other nation -except canadta.
and a better neighbor no one ever had.
If you don't .think so, go to Montreal
-
and ' Toronto and see how well they will
treat you. Other than that there is abso-
lately no room for any other nation. I
have been across the continent again and
again, and know that we have not a
half inch of ground for the gout* foot
of foreign despotism to stand on. But 1
am not so sure that some of the arrogant
nations of Europe may not some day
challenge us. I do nut know that those
forts around New York bay are to sleep
all through the next century. I do not
know that Barnegat'lighthouse will not
yet look off upon a hostile navy, I do
not know but that a balf it dozen nations,
. envious of our prosperity, may want to
give us a wrestle. During our civil war
there were two' or three nations that
amid hardly keep their hands off us. It
is very easy to pick national quarrels,
end if our nation escapes much longer
it will be the exception. .
If foreign foe should come, we want
men like those of 1.81a stud like those of
11862 to meet them. We want them all
up and down the coast, Pulaski and
Fort Sumter in the same chorus of thun-
der as Fort Lafayette and Fort Hamilton.
Men who will not only know how to
fight, but how to die. When such a time
comes, if it ever does come, the genera-
tion on the stage of action will say: "My
country will care for my family as they
did in the soldiers' asylum for the or

If foreign foe should come, the old
sectional animosities would • have no,
power. Here go our regiments into the
battlefield: Fifteenth New York volun-
teens, Tenth Alabama cavalry, Four-
teenth Pennsylvania riflemen, Tenth
Massachusetts artillery, Seventh South
Carolina sharpshooters. I do not know
but it may require the attack of some
foreign foe to make us forget our absurd.
sectional wrangling. I have no faith in
the cry, "No north, no south, no east,
no west," .Let all four sections keep their
peculiarities and their preferences, emeh
doing its own week and not interfering
with each other, each of the four carry
ing its part in the great harmony -the
bass, the alto, the tenor, the soprano-
in the grand. march of union.
Once more, this groat national core-
moue, means the beautification of the
tombs, whether of those who fell in bat-
tie or accident, or who have expired in
their beds or in our arms or on our laps,
I suppose you have noticed that many of
the families take this season as the time
for the adornment of their family plots.
This national observaino has secured the
arboriculture and floriculture of the cam-
eteries, the straightening up of many a
slab planted 30 or 40 years age, and has
swung the scythe through the lona grass
and as brought the stonecutter to call
out the half obliterated. epitaph. This
day is the benediction of the resting
place of father, mother, son, daughter,
brother, sister.
It is all that we can do for them now.
Make their resting plias attractive, not
absurd with costly outlay, but in quiet
remelnbrance. You know how. If you
can afford only one flower, that will do.
It shows what you would do if you
could. One blossom from you may mean
more than the Duke of Wellington's
catafalque. Oh, we cannot afford to for-
get them. They were so lovely to us.
We miss them so much. We will never
get over it. Blessed. Lord Jesus, comfort
our broken hearts. From every bank of
flowers breathes promise of resurrection.
In olden times the Hebrews, returning
from their burial place, used. to pluck
the grass from the field three or four
times, then throve it over their heads,
suggestive of the resurrection. We pick
not the grass, but the flowers, and in-
stead of throwing them over our heads
we place than before our eyes, right
down over the silent heart that once
beat with wannest love toward us or
over the still feet that ran to service, or
over the lips from which we took the
kiss at the anguish of the last parting,
But stop! We are not infidels. Our
bodies will soon join the bodies of our
departed in the tomb, •and out spirits
shall join their spirits in the land of the
rising sun. ,We cannot long be separated.
Instead of crying with Jacob for Joseph,
"I will go down into the grave unto my
son, Mourning," let us cry with David,
"I shall go to him."
On one of the gates of Greenwood is
the quaint inscription, "A night's iedg.
ing on the way to the city of the New
Jerusalem." , Comfort one another with
these words. May the hand of Him who
shall wipe away all tears from all eyes
veip'e your cheek with its softest tender-
nese. The Christ of Mark and Martha
and Lazarus will infold you in His arms.
The white robed angels who sat at the
tomb of Jesus will yet roll the stone
from the door of your dead. in radiant
resurrection. The Lord himself shall de-.
vend from heavea with a shout and the
voice of the archangel. So ,,,..1

prison it in the deepest dungeon of the
eternal penitentiary. Boltait with all the
iron ever forged in cannon or molded
filtO howitzers. Cleave it with all the
sabers that ever glittered in battle and
wring its afoul with all the pangs which
it ever caused. Let it 'feel all the confia-
grations of the. homesteads it has ever
destroyed. Deeper down let it fall and in ,
fiercer flame let it burn till it has 0th -ton
ered into its heart all the suffering of
eternity as well as time. In the name of
the millions of graves of its victims I
denounce it. The nations needmore spirit
of treaty and less of the spirit Of war,
`War is more ghastly now than once,
not only because of the greater destruo-
titaness of its weaponry, but because now
it takes do etn the best men, whereas
once it chiefly took down the worst.
Bruce, in 1717, in his Institutions of
Military Law, said of the European
armies of his day, "If all the infamous
persons and such as bate committed
capital crimes, heretics, atheists and oll
dastardly feminine men, were weeded
out of the army, it would soon be Da-
duced to a Pretty moderate number."
Flogging and mean pay made them still
more ignoble, Officers were appointed
to see that each soldier drank his ra-
tion of a pint of spirits a day. There'
were noble men in battle, but the moral
character Of the army then was 95 per
'sent lower than the moral character oi
an army to -day, By so much is war now
the more detestable because it destroys
the Molted men of the nations.
Again by this national ceremony we
mean to honor courage. Many of these
departed soldiers were volunteers, not
conseripts, and, many of those who were
cleated might have provided a substitute
or got off on. furlough or have deserted,
The fact that they lie in their graves is
proof of their bravery. Brave at the
front, bravo at the cannon's mouth,brave
on lonely picket duty, brave in cavalry
charge, brave before the surgeon, brave
in the dying message to the home circle.
We yesterday put a garland on the brow
of courage, The world wants more of it,
The Church of God is in woeful need
of men who can salad under fire, The
lion of worldly derision roars and the
sheep tremble. In great reformatory
movements at the first shot how many
fall back? The great obstacle to the
Church's advancement is the inanity, the
vacuity, the soft prettiness, the nearby
pambyism of professed Christians. Great
on a parade, cowards in battle. Afraid
of getting their plumes ruffled they tarry
a parasol over their helmet, They gc
into battle not with warrior's gauntlet
but with kid gloves , not clutching the
sword hilt too tight lest the glove split at
the back.
In all our reformatory and Christian
work the great want is more baidtbene,
more mettle, more daring, more prowess.
We would in all our churches like tc
trade off a hundred do nothings for one
do everything. "Quit yourselves like men ,
be strong."
Thy saints in all thiglorious war •
s
Shall conquer, though they die, •
They see the triumph from afar
And seize it with their eye.
. Again we mean by this national ob.
servenee to honor self-sacrifice for others.While
To all these departed men home and
kindred were as dear as our borne and
kindred are to us. Do you know how
they felt? Just as you and I would feel
starting out to -morrow morning -with
nine chances out of ten against our re-
turning alive, for the intelligent soldier
sees not only battle ahead, but malarial
sickness and exhaustion. Had these men
chosen, they could have spent last night
in their homes and to -day have been
seated where you are. They chose the
camp, not because they liked it better
than their own house, and followed. the
drum and fife, not because they were bet-
ter music than the voices of the domestic
cleat°. South mountain and alurfrees-
• boro and. the swamps of Chicka,hoaniny
were not play -grounds.
These heroes risked and lost all for
others. There is no higher sublimity
Than that. To keep three-quarters for
ourselves and give one-quarter to others
is honorable. To divide even with others
is generous. To keep nothing • for our-
selves and give all for others is magna-
nimitY Christine°. Put a girdle around
your body and then measurn the girdle
and see if you are 50 or 60 inches round,
And is that the circle of your smypa-
thies-the size of yourself? Or, to meas-
tire you around the heart, would it take
a girdle large enough to encircle the land
and encircle the world! You want to
know what we dry theologians mean
when we talk of vicarious suffering.
Look at the soldiers' graves and find
out. Vicarious! pangs for others, wounds
for others, homesickness for other% blood
for others, sepulcher for others.
Those who visited the national cane-
teries at Arlington Heights and at Rich--
mond and Gettysburg saw one inscri Pe
tion on soldiers' tombs oftener repeated
than any other -"Unknown." When,
about 21 years ago, I was called to de-
liver the oration .at Arlington Heights,
Washington, I was not so meeh tin-
pressed with the minute guns that shook
the earth or with the attendance of pres-
ident and Cabinet and foreign Ministers
and generals of the army and commo-
dorei of the nevi as with the pathetic
and overwhelming suggestiveness of that
epitaph on so ninny graves at my feet.
Unknown! Unknown! It seems to me
that the time must come when the Gtov-
eminent of the United ptates shall take
off that epitaph. They are no more un-
known. We have found than out at last.
They are the beloved sons of the republie.
• Would it not be well to take the statue
of the heathen geekless off the top of the
capitol (for I have no faith in the morals
of a heathen goddess) and put one great
statue in all of our national cemeteries-,
a statue of Liberty in the form of a
Christian woman, with her hand on an

Ages, with the other hand pointing down
to the graves of the unknown, saying,

The papers are unanimous in demanding

Havana, June 5. -The insurgents have
blown up with dynamite a passenger
train at Union de Reyes.
It is reported that the troops have put
to rout the vanguard of &nforce
which was advancing from Matanzas
Province.
New 'York, June 5.-A special to the
Herald from Havana says: "La Luella
states that if Spain secures the expected
loan of $300,000,000 in. Paris and Lou-
don, 10,000 more reinforcements will be
embarked at once for Cuba, and the
fleet will also be strengthened, as a
warning to the Yankee Government to
keep its hands off Cuba." According to
La Luella the story from Madrid to the
effect that President Cleveland is disposed
to influence the Cubans to accept eaten-
only on condition that Spain shall grant
concessions which will Increase Ameri-
can commerce with the island, must be
taken with a grain of salt. Spain, La
Luella adds, would resent any such
proposition.
The fact has leaked out that a large party
of Cubans and a consignment of arms
and ammunition for the Cuban army
left this city on May 9th last, unnkown
to the Goternntent officials. The men
and war material left on the steamship
Flamborough, and were transferred tie

Watertown, N. Y., June 5. -Sohn A.
Finnigan, the special correspondent of

General Weyler as being persona non

Finnigan has been in Cuba since April,
and has furnished the Standard with free
quoit letters descriptive of Spanish
atrocities attributed to' the "Butcher."
He was twice arrested and. sent back to
Havana. Last week he left the city con-
teary te the orders of the authorities.
On his return last Friday Mn. Finnigan
was warned that he must leave by the
Saratoga, which sailed. on Sunday. He
was placed under a strong guard, but
managed to get a message off through a
friend.
London, June 5. -The Morning Post

Ottawa, June 5. -The statement of
eevenues and expenditures for the mouth
of May shows the receipts to have been
$2,977, e42, a decrease of $79,798 from the
same month last year. This faning off is
wholly in excise, which was $120,209
less than May last year, when receipts
were abnormally high. Customs show an
increase of $23,700, post -office $ I 35,000
and miscellaneous $11,961. Public works
including railways, show a decrease of

months amounted to $32,952,071, an in-
crease of $2,495,231; and the 'expenditure
to $28,590,864, a decrease of $745,968.
The surplus of ordinary receipts over or-
dinary expenditure is now $4,355,200, as
compared with $1,204,008 at the same
period last year. The expenditure on oapi.
tel account during the month was $672,-

debt outstanding at the close of the
month to have been $250,076,389, an in-
crease of $1,142,602 during the month,
which is accounted for by the increase in

CAPE COLONY AFFAIRS,
The Beform Leaders Released on Parole-
Mr. Cecil Rhodes Makes an Important
Speech. ..
London, June 5., -The Pall Mall Ga-
zetta late this afternoon, says it learns
that a despatch has • been received here
from Pretoria saying that • the Johannt.s-
burg reform leaders have been released
on parole. The despatch adds that. Mr.
John Hays Hammond, the American en-
gineer, sails for Southampton on board
the steamship Athenian, on his way to
the United States. Finally, the dispatch
states that it is rumored at Pretoria that
the reformers will each be fined 1110,000.
Buluwayo, ;Tune 5. -At a banquet
given here Mr. Cecil Rhodes made an
important speech, in ' which he briefly'Leas
sketchea the history of Rhodesia. He
said the railway from the south was ad-
vancing rapidly, and it might reach Pal-
apye within a year. He expressed waft-
deuce in the development of the mines,
tend eulogized General Carrington, in
command of the Imperial forces in South
Africa, as the man he would himself
have selected to quell the rebellion He
deplored the great loss' of life but he said
'
the Matabeles had displayed. unusual ob-
stinacy. When they had been subjugated
General Carrington and General Martin
would select sites for permanent forts. If
he were allowed to remain to work with
them he looked to the future for the
charter to lapse, and the colony to be-
come self-governing. This would be pos-
sible without detriment to the sharehold-
ers. Mr. Rhodes ridiculed the idea of the
amalgamation of the Transvaal, or sits
annexation to Cape Colony. Of the pos-
sessions not bounded by the Zambesi five
years hence, probably the most valuable
portion of the country would be recog-
nized as lying north of the Zambesi. It
rested with the people, he said, to co-op-
crate with him to carry out his schemes.
The present population, he argued, was
too small for self-government, but repro.
saltation in the Legislative Council
would be an intermediate stage to the
ultimate object. He advised the people
always to look to independence M. the
future, and. to keep in their hearts the
idea of free.' trade and quick comment
cation with the Oape. He also favored a
system of taut defence, which, summed
up, meant federation. His policy had.
always been ' the same, selagovenanent
in the north, and while he had the say
in the country that policy would never
change. He would be ib very small human
being, he asserted, if he altered the
ideas of a lifetime. He concluded by
• inviting time co-operation

people in his scheme of maeing-Rhodesia

Death of Mr. Edward Glacioneyer---Mitl-
dleseX County Einances-Disoussiou on
the County Council Bill.
London, June 7.-A very old. resident
of London, Mr. Edward. Glackineyer,
,
diea yesterday, aged 77 years. Mr. Giack-
muer had been living in retirement for
a number of years. The only member of
the family now alive is Mr. F. J. Glack-
naeyer, Sergeant -at -Arms in the Ontario
Legislature. Mr. Glackineyer, who was
born in Montreal, came to London in
1855. He built the London Gas Works
and also erected similar works in Ham-
ilton, Dundas and St. Catharines.
The Middlesex County Council con-
ducted its business yesterday. A by-law
was passed to raise $61,44 1.77 for de-
!mature interest and current expenditure.
The report of the Petitioning Committee
contained a resolution by Mr. G. B.
Campbell to notify the Ontario Govern-
ment that a serious error had been cora-
naitted in passing the act last session to
reduce the Member of representatives on
the County Council. It contended that
the cost would not be materially do-
creased, awl that many portions of the
command!, would not receive fair repro-
sentation. • Tbe Council adopted the fol-
lowing resolution: "That the several al-
/egations contained in the resolution of
Mr. G. B. Campbell are as yet not known
to be true. Therefore, this Council, as
loyal subjects of the Crown, deem it im-
prudent to pronounce against the aot
passed by the Ontario Government before
it has received a fair trial." According
to the equalization aou, ' the assessed
value of real and personal property in
the county is $25,931,961 the equalized
assessment being $84,146,024. •
