A Sermon at Csp Wayne f J On last Sunday, tLe Rev. J. W. T. Mc

McLLiir, preached a sermon from the text: "War a good warfare," which for eloquence and plainness, having a direct practical bearing upon the troublous times now encompassing our nation, we have never heard surpassed. He, in the first place, spoke of the Christian warfare, waged without the use of carnal weapons with the

sword of the -pirit truth a warfare against the world, the flesh and the devil ;

spote of the triumph of the Christian by the use of those weapons, which were mighty in the destruction of vice and immorality the pulling down cf strong holds. He alluded to the declaration made by the Father of his country the great and good Washington that the principles of the Christian religion underlie our Government, and he

Information just obtained leads to the firm belief that England and France will concur with our Government in steps taken to re-assert its authority. Tl.is is also the
