all ; " and- go. my friends, if no manifest danger har beerrpermitted to alarm us we should, with special ferTor, thank God for His preserving mercy. t But whether we have Joumejad or lingered amidst the "qaret Scenes' of home, all of us have been spared through another year. Manifold diseases have lurked, like hungry tigers, along our pathway, and Death has been busy with his dreadful dart; Some who began the year as healthy andas strong , as. we, ,haTe, , fallen. Some like night -flash passe awajv- i

adu sows muk uugunug uay oy aay." 1 From the'city of the living they have gone to; their r long home in yonder silent city ot the dead. Is not our '" preservation a marvel of mercy! :o " Oar life contains a thousand springs, And dies if one be gone ,J3trauge that a harp of thousand strings .c U vfihsoJd keep la taneso longl? i i j , , Should not every chord of that harp . be vocal, this day, as we celebrate the loving kindnesses of the Lord?,.! I "I will mention the loving kindnesses of thejqfd" in the domestic mercies we have . enjoyed. Home ( What ! a wealth " of ineaning; in' that word! Home the name b a talisman. What heart has not' felt the, spell of,, its "'magid power? 'Hme--if is'jthesum ' of earth's sweetest,- purest joys! Yes, home; sweet bome, musical with glad voices, fragrant, with the flowers of affection, beautiful as an angel's

drcm, no wopderwe t love thee ! Home, fragmeni of tsur lest' Paradise, gladdening they desert world blessed type 'of!tne Paradise to" be regained, thou irt dear to our 'heart." ''' There is no place like home" i " In every clime the magnet of the soul,: I Touched! by .remtanbrauoe, trembles to ..that pole." ,--,; p'i If then, God has given ua a happy home, let us not forget to thank Him. True, there is no earthly' homo so bright but that , shadows will, sometimes fall across it .hearthstone, nor i "any household song so joyous but that 0 , into it sad notes must sometimes enter. . Even as the swift years go by do they leave fewer of the faces that'wo jlove, gathering in the dear home circle and in the chambers of memory new images of the loved ones gone. But tho .apgel' or.hopepoints the mourner to a grieflesSj graveless land, !i ; lying in - sweet sunshine beyond ' the River, and gently whispers of the dead r nes ,dearT " not lost but gone? before." Yes, the glad Gospel brings down- in- "' to our darkened houses the very light "" of the Holy City, and unveils before us. visions of the glorified -before the ., t Throne ! . 0, weeping pilgrims, would you call '. pack .' those 'raasomepnes from their harps and psalms, to "wander affain in .the valley of, tears? Let us rather learn : ' J - " ,.''t !'.'! Aft year by year we foso '- Friends out of Right. In faith to muse ' , How grows in Paradise our store.". , T" The very tears of the mourner will j reflect God's prai.se, as when1 the heavens are weeping the rainbow spans the cloud with its radiant arch. But even in our sorrows we must not forget; the joysr thatp remain. Few houses' arc utterly -desolateV Oh, t, smitten heartt the little coffin jelt less y heavy because 'of the .dear onfs that were left. Cherished and beautiful buds may have been plucked. 'but others are still blooming on the parent tree. Your weeping: for-the loved ones gone may not be rebuked even Jesus wept at the grave of a friend ' but your tears for the departed must not . blind you:.to. the sweet mercies which still bless your home. t .?As to-day, therefore, you look upon these tokens of God's loving kindness, if you cannot sing a joyous song you will, at least, take up yosr harp and in notes of tender Christian sorrow say, "I. will, sing of.rn.ercy and judgment,'5 lU Unto 'thee O Lord,

will 1 sing, 1 hen, whether we meet in homes Aright with: gladness or in homes shaded by sadnes?, let there be no- circle of .kindred hearts to-day or family altars from which there shall not ascend the incense of, praise to that God whose loving kindness is the spring of all our joysrf-whqsc jsmile is the sunshine of our homes. III. But " I will mention the loving kindnesses of the Lord " in his mercies to , us as a city. And, if ever a city had 'Treasons for thanksgiving that city is ours. r!In the early suramer, borne on the ; wings of the wind, the " angel of the pestilence "' reached our shores. Unsheathing his mysterious sword he journeyed across the continent, silently executing his awful commission. Thousands fell before him. From every class from prattling childhood and gray, haired agefrom the dwelling of poverty and the mansions of wealth, - the destroyer claimed his victims. JIn New York, .. in Cincinnati, in Chicago and St. ; Louis in a Bcore of cities there, was " mourning, lamentation and. woe." But our city has not been scourged True, some who dwelt among us the loved, the beautiful crossed the track of the pestilence and came back no more. Like the lightning that strikes before it warns, the tidings of death fell upon; breaking hearts in these smitten homes. But these sad be- ? reavements were exceptional. Our

' city has' not been darkened , by the J shadow of the dread angel's' wing J

Only from afar have, we heard the rush of his strong pinions,' and seen, through the gloom, the gleam of hia fearful sword I1- Sheltered beneath

Jehovah's wings, we have been kept from-"the pestilence that walketh in darkness, and the destruction that wasteth at! noonday." For: this loving kindness " Let the people praise Thee; O, God, let all the people praise . Thee, -. ! ; .!. ,ilt ..tr .. But, besides God s mercy to us in averting t,he pestilence, the general health of t)urf eitv has-been' unnaral-

, leled., .The rate of mortality has been

lower here than in any other city of

eo,ual.populaticnfxb.e pastors of the city can justify that the health 6f ; our respective congregations has been unprecedented, there having, beertalmost no fatal or even serious 1 . sickness among us, and,, with glad and ' grateful heartu, we, unite with bar dear peot)le. to-dar. iu acknowledging the lov

ing kindness of the, Lord. ' The' Sank i t i -1- i TL . -

iary measures wnicn. nave ueea going forward so energetically- 'duringf the ummjer-tbe paving f .and; -draining f:iour Btreetaiavev no ' doubt, greatly promoted the, public ; health; and, "of these improvements, - our city la ''justly.; ; proud. ; v, But,:t'! if we would j , make ;.' aV; ' worthy " "S. teturn for the health we have enjoyed, ! we must, look beyond' all ' mere '.instrumental age n cies to that " God In whose ha nd3'Joui?, breath' is,: and whose are all our , ways. Yea, t. we must not ' sacrifice .(o Our own , net, nor burn incense to our own 'drag, ' by giving to. second causes the glory due to .the freat First Cause the Father' of ight, from whom cometh down every good. and perfect, gift.". Stripped of all the sophistries of a" vain philoso.-, phy, the- pkin truth is this: Our. city( has, been exempt, from epidemic d isease -because f that ; glorious God, , whose jaws.are so( simplef and yet so sublime, has breathed into our atmosphere, neutralizing1 its poisons, and imparting those properties which Sustain the life of every living thing. In a word, we have' been v blessed with health because God'sIoving kindness has stooped to,fU3iff benediction. , Beforeassing'-'a'w'ay from these thouehta about the health of our

cityle;tJM.a3k .khat of the moral at-

mospherer Is . there .any healthful influence--there?! Trtith wompels u to say that we have sins enough to mak e MS b lush-sins 5eh dugh to mak e us wonder at the patience of. Gbdsins enough to make us tremble Jest,,that(i Holy God who, sees; and hears all, should send down upon us the judgments of His wrath. Yes, we haye, sins enoughto make us cry out in admiring gratitude, " It is of the Lord's mercies we are not consumed because His compassions, fail JOt. ' J i J ' X.ti J- 4' :' .! But while Jesus wept over a wicked city, and while there are many things to make us ween over this cjty.i there isitill rffucfrin Whi6h to 'rejoice," and for whieh "we;enght tq'blestrf our God' to-day. Fearful as is the" struggle, evil is not-in the. ascendant. Deeds

of violence and blood are extremely,

rare. Drunkenness, .though its punning-stream's -Vre -uvisibleiJ along our streets, is not,here as, in many cities of our land, rising to a fiery, all-engulph-ing deluge. Those "crimes and shames," -which, like " shapes hot from Tartarus,"- would,' if" unrestrained, soon make any city a pandemonium,are - here .held in check by , the wholesome rnfluences which v pervade society v- Look.at the machinery at work for the social", intellectual,' moral and religious'Ropdj of jour people.; Think of our libraries", Jour schools, our city missions, our orphan's home, our cnurches with all their appliances, and the thought will inspire hope, and deepen gratitude as you sing, "surely the lines' are fallen to us in pleasant- places: " yea; we have i a goodly heritagf.rjA'- J0In-7 IV. But will mention 'the lovingkiddesges -of. the' Lb$ d 7in; the national tmercTea we have received. And Tierethe field that opens before us, is so vast, that it is impossible to explore it. A glance or two is all we can now take. , M , j; God has greatly blessed our agricultural interestsj :'.?.He left not him-, self without witness in that He did

good and gave us rain from Heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness." Spring came

singing on her way, ana, at the echo

of her voice. all oature wakened into

gladness. . The flowers strewed a path

way 'Of ' triumph1- tor" their .queen.

1 he x playful steams loosened from their icy'- fetters,1" '- ran ' laughing

along the valleys--" the trees of the wood clapped their hands, and the little" hills; rejoiced on every side." And Summer. .came in her robe3 of

green, and under her sunny smile .the

nelds waved with golden grain.- and

sitting among hemheaves like smother among her children, she kept, her glad " harvest home."1' sAnd Antumn came clothed in, scarlet, and gold, and

from her "Horn of Plenty, ' poured at the feetlof the husbandman her amEle store.. . Thus each circling season rought a blessing as it passed,, and we may well sing to-d;iy as we cele-

"brate'thejloving kijvflness'of theLord

iiiuu viuwucM nie year wim jt iiy goodness, and Thy paths drop fatness." " ; -.. The mineral resources of our coun-; try have been largely developed. From veins of gold and mountains of lrqaj ftojtf bods fi poal ad" fountains of oil, streams of wealth yhave been flowing upon our nation. Thus, for the precious things' brought forth by the sun and "for the preqioua things of the lasting hills" we should thank our God to-day, for, na, these two classes of our products our cereals and our mineral?twe have the chief elements of our national prosperity. '. : :' Our commerce, too, has flourished, sending her ships to every harbor, and crowding our marts of trade with the treasures ofevery clime. In our manufacturing' establishments' the hum ;of machinery r hasr not ceased, andin every department of useful inventions the genius of America mav

safely challenge the competition of

the world. 1 ''"-"
