By unanimous, &profs of the people Of

of -all the northern and southern dead aro

bitterness, have gone out of tho national
Soloninity, and as the Mon and women of.

tvo, the men and women of the north, put__
upon the tombs of our dbad the kiss of pa-

had been a month ago at Savannnh he
would not have been ashamed to march i '
the floral processions to the oemotor.
And if yesterday a Confederate soldier wa
at Arlington he was -glad to put a sprig b

Brave Generosity.
. In a battle during our last war the Certr
federates were driving back the Federals;
who were in swiftretreat, when a Federal
officer dropped wounded. One of his men
.stopped at, the risk of his life and -put 1114
aims around the officer to carry him from
the field. Fifty Confederate muskets were
aimed alb° yam* man who was picking
up the officer. But the Confederate cap-
tain Shouted: "Hold! Don't fire. That
follow is too bravo t� be shot." And as
the Federal officer, held up by his privata
soldier, went limping slowly off the fleld
tho Co.nfederatea gave three cheers' for the
brave private, and just before the two diai
appeared:behind a barn both the wounded
officer and the bravo priaate . lifted- their
capsla gratitude te the Confederate cap
tain. 1 a
Shall the gospp • e less generous than

the 'World? We Staok arms, the bayonet°
our northern gun.facing this way, the bay-
onet of tho southern gun facing the other
way, and as the gray of the morning melts
Into tho blu-o of noon so the typical gray,
and blue. of old war times have blended at'
last, and they quote in the language Of
King.james' translation without any re-
vision, "Glory to God in the highest, and i
on earth Peace, good wH1 to men." .Now,1
What do we mean by this groat observance?
First., we mean instruction to One whole
generation. Substract 1865, when the war
. ended, from our 1806,and you will realize
what a vast number of people wore born
since tho,war or wed so young as to have
no -vivid appreciatiOn. No ono under 41
years of ago has any adequate memory of
that prolonged horror. Do you remember
it? "Well," you say, "I only remember
that mother swooned away while She was
reading the newspaper, and that they
brought niy father „home wrapped , in the
flag, and that a good manipeople came in
the hone° to pray, and mother faded away
after that until again there were- many
people in the house,and they told me she
was dead," , - !
• There aro others who cannot remember
the roll of a drum or the tramp of a regi-
ment or a sigh or a tear of that tornado of
woo that swept -the nation again and again
until there was ono dead in each house.
Now it is tho religious duty of those who
do remember it to tell those who do not.
My young friends, there were such part-
ings at rail car windows and steamboat
_wharfs and at front doors of comfortable
homes as I pray God you may -never. wit-
ness. Oh, what a time it was, when .fa-
thers and mothers gave up their sons, never
expecting to seo thein again and never did '
see them again ontiltheyeame book inuti-
lated and crushed and dead.
..
A Glance at the Past.
• Four years of blood. Four years of hos-
tile experiences. Four years of . ghastli-
ness. Four years of gravedigging. Four
years of funerals, coffins, shrouds, hearses,
dirges. Mourning, mourning, mourning!
It was holl let loose. What a time of
Waiting for news! Morning paper and
evening paper scrutinized for Intelligence
from the -boys at the front. First, an-
nouncement, that the battle must occur the
next day. • Then the news of the battle
going on. On the following daystill going
on. Then news of 80,000 slain and of the
names -of the great generals who had fallen,
but no news about the private soldiers.
Waiting for news! After many days' a
load of wounded going through the town
or.city, but no news Min our boy. Then
a long list of wounded and a long list of
the dead end a long list of the missing.
Aad among the last list our boy.
When missing? How missing? Who
saw him last? Missing! Missing! Was
he in the woods or by tho stream? How
was he hurt? Missing! Missing! 'Atha
burning prayers that ho may yot bo heard
from. In that awful waiting for now
many a life.porished. The strain of anx
iety was too great. 'That wife's brain
gavo way that first weekafter tho battle
and over and anon sho walks the floor of
the_ asylum or looks out of the window as
though she expected EOM° one to come
along tho .path and up the steps as she
soliloquizes, "Missing; missing."
What mado matters Worse, allthis might
have been avoided. There was DO more
need of that war than at this inotnent I
should plunge dagger through • your
heart. Thero. wore a. few Christian phi-
lanthropists in those days, scoffed at both
by north and south, who had tho right of
• It. . If they had been heard on both sides,
'WO should have had no war and no slavery.
It was advised by those Christian philan-
thropists, "Let the north pay in money
for tho slaves as property and set thorn.
free." Tho north said, "We cannot afford
to pay." The south ,said, "We will not
sell thesslaves anyhow." But the north
did pay in war expenses enough to pur-
ehase.the slaves, and the south was corn-
- palled to give up slavery anyhow. Might
not.tho north better have paid the mouey
and'saved the 'Ives of 600,000 brave men,
and might not the south better have sold
out slavery and saved her 600,000 brave
mon? I swear you by the graves of your
fathers and brothers and sons to a new
hatred for the clan -Upton curse of the nai-
ve:me-war. 0 Lord Godevrith the hot-
test bolt of thine oinnipetent indignation
strike that monster down forever and ever.
Imprison it In tho deepest dungeon of the
eternal penitentiary. Bolt it in with aIl
the iron ever forged in cannon or molded
into howitzers. Cleave it with all the
sabers that ever glittered in battle and
,svring its a_oul WWI 1411.:t11Q P..4_132f3 WalCli It
ever caused. Let It Teel all the cowl -agree
tiona of the homesteads it has ever de-
stroyed. Deeper down let 1 • fall and in
fiercer flame let it burn till it has gathered
into its heart all the sufferin of eternity
as well ae time. In the tune of the
millions of graves of its v Odin°, I de-
nounce it. Tho nations no d more the
spirit of treaty and less of the pirit of war.
Why War Is Detestable.
War is more ghastly now than 021CO, not
only beeense of the greater de tructivenese,
of its weaponry, but because ow 17:,- takes
down the best mon, whereas o ce itphiefly
took down the event. Bruce, in 1717, in
his "Institutions of Military Law," said
of the European armies of his pay, "If all
W00110115 persons and 61101i aS have com-
mitted capital crimes, heretics, atheists
and all dastardly feminine • men,,. were
weeded out of the army, it would soon bo
reduced to a pretty moderate number."
Flogging and mean pay mado them still
more ignoble. Officers wore ppointed to
see that each soldier drank his ration of a
• pint of spirits a day. • There vore noble
men in battle, but the moral c erector of
the atony then was 05 per cent lower than
the moral character of an arrn3f today. By
so much is.war now the mor detestable
because it destroys the picked nen of the
nations. •
Again by this natienal desesmony we
moan to honor courage. Many of these
departed soldiers were volunteers, not con-
scripts, and many of those vvlict were draft-
ed 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, brave at
the cannon's mouth, brave on lenely pick-
et duty, brave in cavalrycharge, bravo be-
fore the surgeon, bravo in the dYing mess-
age to the honie circle. Wo yesterday put
a garland on the brow of courage. The
world wants more of it.
The church of God is in wean1 need of
men Who can stand under fire. The lion
of worldly derision roars and the sheep
tremble. In great- reformatorY movements;
at the hrst shot how many fall back.
The groat obstacle to the churoh'is advance-
ment is tho inanity,' the vacu4y, the soft
prettiness, the nambY panohyisM of pro-
fessed Christians. Great on a parade, cow-
ards in battle. Afraid of -go ting their
plumes ruffled, they carry a, pa asol over
their helmet. They go into battl not with
warriors' gauntlet but with k d gloves,
not clutching tho sword hilt tod tight lest
the glove split at the back.
In all our reformatory and Christian
work the great want is more backbone,
more mettle, more daring, More prowess.
We would in all our churches lik-e to trade
off a hundred do nothings for one do every-
thing. "Quit yourselves like men; he
strong. "
Thy Saints in all.tbis glorious war
• Shall conquer, though they 4io.
They sco the triumph from a ar •
And seize it with their eye.
Self Sacrifice.
• Again we mean by this natio al observ-
ance to honor self sacrifice for o hers. To
all these departed men home an kindred
were as dear as our home and kindred aro
to us. Dolyou-know how they elt.? Just
as you and I would feel starting out to-
morrow morning with nine chances out of
ten. against our returning alive, for the
intelligent, soldier sees not only battle
ahead, but malarial sickness and exhaus-
tion. Had these men ChOSOD, hey could
have spentlast night in their homes and
today have .boon seated _where you are.
They chose the camp, not because they
liked it bettor than th.eir own bouse, and
followed the drum and fife, not because
they were better nnisic than tho voices of
Murfreesboro and the swamps o Chioka-
the domestic circle. South Mou tain -and
hominy were not playgrounds.
These heroes risked and 1esi all for
others. There is no higher suhli ity than
that. To .lasep three-qoartersfor ourselves
and give one-quarter to others .i. honora-
ble. To divide even -with others is goner,-
ous. To k -cep nothing for our elves and
give all for others is snagnanimi y Christ -
like. Put a girdle around your body and
then measuto the girdle and see if you are
50 or e0 Inc GS round. And lath; t the cir-
cle of your sympathies -the size of your-
self? Or, to neasure you around ,he heart,
would it thle a girdle large enot gli to en-
.. know what we cry. thee -
circle the end and eecirclo tl e world?
You want o
legians noaa when we talk of 'vicarious
suffering. Look at the soldiers' graves and
find out. Vicarious! pangs for others,
-wounds for °tilers, homesickness for oth-
ers, biped forlithers, sepulcher for others. _
These Who visited the national ceme-
1 tories eit Ariiugton Heights and at Rich-
