North and So' th, among Federals and Confederates, full Justice has been done to the memory of those Who fought oil the land in our gre at contest, but not enough has been said of those who on ship’s deck dared and suffered all things.' Lord God of the rivers and the sea, help me in this sermon! So, ye Admirals, Commodores, Commanders, Captains, pilots, gunners, boatswains, sail-makers, surgeons, stokers, messmates and seamen of all names, to use your own parlance, we might as well get under way and stand out toward sea. Let all laud lubbers go ashore. Full speed now! Four bells. Never since the sea fight of Leoanto, where 900 royal galleys, manned by 51. OX) warriors, at sunrise, {September 6, 1571, met 350 royal galleys, manned by men, and in the four hours of battle S O >0 fell on one side, and 25,000 on the other; yea, never since the day when at Actiuni. thirty-one years before Christ, Augustu*. with 209 ships, scattered the 36) ships of Mark Antony and gains! nni

vers»i uuuuaiuj as me prus; yea, smew he day when ut Salami* the 1.39) galleys ol the Persian’;, manned by 5»,0Jb men, were crushed by Greeks with less than a third of that fir*; yea, never since the . ime of Noah, t he first ship captain, has ’he world seen such a miraculous creat on as that of the American navy in 1SSI. There were about 399 available seamen in alt the navy stations and receiving ships, jrd here and bere an old vessel. Yet orders were given to blockade 3.50) m iss of seacoast, greater than the whole coast of Europe, and besides that, the Ohio,Tonnes see. Cumberland, Mississippi and other great rivers, covering an extint of 2,0.0 more miles, were to be petroled. No wonder the whole civilised world burst into n guffaw of laughter at the seem lag ‘impossibility. But the work was done, cone almost immuii Italy. done thoroughly, and done with a. speed and consummate skill that eclipsed all the history of naval architecture. What brilliant achievements an suggested oy the mere mention of the nam es of the Rear-Admirals. II all they did should be written, every one, I suppose that even the world Itself could not contain the books that should be written. But these names have received the honors due. The most of them went to their graves under the cannonadeof all the forts, navy yards and man-of-war, the flags of all the shipping and capitals at half-mast. But I recite to-day the deeds of our nival heroes who have not yet received appropriate remgi tion. Behold also the ships. As we will never know what qur na<iooat prosper ity is worth until we realise what it coat, I recall the no recited fact that the men of the navy ran especial risks. They bad not only the human weaponry to contend with, but the tides, the fog. the storm. Not like other ships could they run into harbor at 'the approach of an equinox, or a cyclone, or a hurricane. because the harbors were hostile. A miscalculation of a tide might leave them on a bar, and n fog might overthrow nil the plana of wisest Commodore and Admiral, and sccident might leave them, not on the land ready for an ambulance, but at the bottom of the sea, as wtien the torpedo blew up the Tecumseh, in Mobile bay. and nearly all on board perislied. They were at the mercy of the Atlantic andPaciflc oceans, which have no mercy. Such tempests as wrecked the Spanish ai mads might any day swoop upon the squadron. No hiding behind the earthworks. No digging in of cavalry spurn' at the sound of retreat Mightier than nil the fortresses on «J1 the coasts, is the ocean when it bombards a flotilla In the cemeteries for federal and Confederate ceqd are the bodies of most of those who fell on the land. Bat where those are who went down in the war Teasels will! not be known until the sea gives up it» Asad. Tbs Jock tare knew that while loving, arms might cany the men who fob: on the land and bury them with solemn litu rgy and the. boners of war, for the bodies of thooe who dropped from the ratlines into the sea, or went down with all on board under the stroke of o gunboat, tiieni remained the shark and the whale und the endless tossing of the sea which can not rest.

It was afterward found that she sank from weakness through injuries received us previous service. Her plates iigd Siiec knocked loose in previous times. So Jfotl have in nerve, and muscle, and hone, and dimmed eyesight, and difficult hearing and shortness of breath many intimations that you arO gradually going town. It is the service of twenty-three years ago that is telling on- you. Be of good ebeer. We owe you just as much as though year lifeblood had gurgled through the scuppers of the ship in the Red River expedition, or as though you had gone down with the Melville of Hs.ttoras, Only keep your flag flying as did the illustrious Weekawked. Good cheer, toy hoys! Tie memory of man Is poor, and all’ that talk about the | country never forgetting these Who j fought for it is an untruth. It does forget. Witness how the veterans sometimes had to turn the hand-organs on the street to get their families, a living. Witness how ruthless’y some! of them have been turned out of office that some bloat of a politician might taka their place. Witness the fact that there is not a man or woman now under thirty years of age who has any full appreciation of the four years’ martyrdom of ISfll to 1883 inclusive. But while men may lorget, God never forgets. He remembers the swinging hammock. He I remembers the forecastle. He remembers the froreu ropes of that January tempest., He remembers the amputation without sufficient ether. He remem ber|j the hterors of that deafening night when forts from both sides belched ou you their fury, and the heavens glowed with the ascending and descending missile? of death, and your shin quaked under the .re

TO br jg before the American people the d lit they owe to the navy, I go out with itou on the Atlantic ocean, where theiki is plenty of room, and in imagination review tbe warshipping of our three great conflicts— 17JS, 1813 and 1U85. Swing into line ali ye frigates, iron-dads, flm-rsifts, gunboats and men-of-wnr. There they come, all sail set aed all furnaces in fall blast, sheaves of crystal tossing S rom their cutting prows. Thst is the Delaware, an old revolutionary craft, eomansniled by Commodore Decatur. Yonder goes the Constitution, Commodore Hall commanding. There is the Clkesapeake, commanded by Captain Lawrence, whose dying words were: “Don’t give np the ship,’’ and the Niagara, of 1812, commanded by Commodore Perry, who wrote on the back of an old letter, resting on his saw cap: “We have met the enemy, and fihey are ours.” Yonder is the flagship Wabash, Admiral Dupont commanding; yonder the Sagship Minnesota, Admiral Goldsborough commanding; yonder the flagship Philadelphia, Admiral Dahlgren commanding; yonder the flails hip Idas Jacinto, Admiral Bailey commanding; yonder the flagship Black Hawk, Admiral Porter commanding; yonder the flag steamer Benton, Admiral Foote commanding; yonder the flagship Hartford, David Giascoe Parragut commanding. And now all the squadrons of all departments, from smallest tug-boat to mightiest man-of-war. are in procession; decks and ringing filled with the men who fought on the sea for the old flag ever since wo ware s notion. Grandest fleet the world ever saw. Sail on before all egos! Ron op all the colors! Ring nil the be’Js! Yep, open all the port-holes t Unlimber the guns and load and fire one great broadside that shall shake the continents in honor of peace and the eternity of the American Union! But I lift my hand and the scene has vanished.

Had the Christiaa religion been a cowardly thing they would hevo had nothing to do with it. In its faith they lived nud died. In our Brooklyn Navy-yard Admiral Foote held prayer meetings and conducted a revival on the receiving ship North Carolina, and on Sabbath, far out at sea, followed the chaplain with religious exhortation. In early life on hoard the'sloop-of-war Notches, impressed tty the words of a sailor, he gave hie spare time for two weeks to the Bible, anil, at the end' of that, declared openly: “Henceforth, under all drcamstanoes I will act for God.” His last words, while dyiag'at the Astor House, New York, were: **! thank God for all his goodness to me. He has been very good to me.” When he entered Heaven ha did not have to run • blockade, for it was amid the cheers of a great welcome. The other Christian Admiral will he honored until the day when the fires from above shall lick up the waters from beneath, and there shell be no more sea. Oh. while eld ocean’s breast Bears a white sail. And God's stars to rest Guide through the galei Men will him ne’er forget 5. Old hearts of oak. V Farragut, Farrsgut, Thunderbolt stroke! According to his corn statement, Farrsgut was very leoep in his morals in early manhood, and practiced all kinds of sin. One day he was called into the cabin of h» father, who was a shipmaster. His father said: J “David, what are you going to be, any. how!” He answered: “1 am going to follow the sea.” ‘‘Follow the sea,” said the father, “and be kicked about tha world and ;die In a foreign hospital!” “No,” said David, “I #m going to command, like you.” “No,” said the father, ‘A boy of Tout habits will never command any ffcing,” i sad his father burst into tears and left the cabin.

From the, day UiTiQ rarragui started on a new life. Captain Pennington, an honored (Acer ef this church, was with him in most of fete battles and bad his intimate friendship, and he confirms, what I had heard'alsowhere, that Fhrragut was good and Oi rlstian. In entry great crisis of life he asked and obtajfldi the diviu« direction. When m Mobile bay, the miiSftor Tetniraseli sunk front a torpedo, and the groat war ship Brooklyn, thatwas|to lead the squsdoa,turned back, be said he was at a loss to know whether to advance or retreat, and he say*: “I prayedt *0, Odd who created man and gave him reason, direct what to do. Shall 1 ge on? And a Tort commanded me: ‘Good.* And I went on.” Was there ever t mere touching Christian letter than that Wfcieh he wrote to his wife from his flagship Hartford? i Mr Damn Wont—I wri’e and leave this iWiVr for ycst lam going into Mobile Bay in the morning- K CM Is my leafier, and I hope he is, and in him t p!aoe my tragi.

Sod bless and preserve yoo my darling, sad my dear boy. if any thing should happen to me. May his blessings rest aprja you. and your dear mother, and nil your sisters and their children. Cheerful to the end, he said, on board the Tallapoosa, in the last voyage he ever took: “It would be well if I died new, in bar The sublime Episcopal service tor the dead was never more appropriately read than over his casket, andj well did all the forts of Sew York harbor thunder as his bodv was brought to our whart, and well did the minute guns sound and the bells tell aa in a procession having in its ranks the President of the United States and his Cabinet, and the mighty men of land and sea, the old Admiral was carried -mid hundreds of thousands of uncovered heads on Broadway, and laid on hia pillow of dust in beautiful Woodiawn, September 80, amid the pomp of eur antuntnal forests. Ye veterans who fought and sailed under him, take your Admiral’s God and Christ fbr your God and Christ. After a few marts conflicts you, too, will rest. For the few remaining fights with sin and death and hell make readv.
