THANKSGIVING SERVICES HELD (COXTUGKD moil BEOOXD PASS)

ini)>r«4« one who eearohei for the eTi< dcuov of Ood’i iroidtnir bond in 001 netionel hiatarT. It moM not be torxoiten the! whet we now cell the I'nlted Stetee ia veatly different from Wffbt it wea e oentory e«o. In 1800 the ROTernment owned no territory weet of the Miaaiaaippi nrer. while Kloride wea oleimed ha the Upeniah crown. Weal of the MieeiaKipiu wea an immenae treot of ooantra known a< the “Looiaiena purohaae, " owned by the French ROTernnaent.end named lu honor of Looia XfV. Thla proTinca at retched from the month of the river northward to what ia now oor northern boundary and in* eluded Loniaiana. Arkanaaa, Miaeouri, Iowa. Minneeota. Dakota, nearly the whole of Kanma and the Indian Terri* tory, part of Colorado, the moat of Wyoming, the whole of Montana, Idaho Oregon, and Washington Terri-

tory.

In 1808 this nnmenee terrtory waa pnrrhaaed bv oor governent from France for oaty Il5.00n.oo0 Bnt thia ia the evidence of divine leadinga; in three mootha after thia pnrcbaae war broke oat beeween Great Britan and Unted Statee. and had France at ill retained poewaaion of thi«great territory beyord the Hiaataippi, atrategiiu declare that England either through treaty and etill more likely by lerce of arma would have aeiaed npon this bean of the country, m ami ml her troops, boilt tier forta. cot the continent in twain and prevented forever the western eween of the people'! e rot pi re. Had thie occurred the oeasion by Mexico ef Texas in 1845, of Colorado and the great sooth weet in 1848 could never have transpired. Had eur government been deprived of-the Rockv Mountains with their stores of precious metals and the far Uretcking bread fi ilds of the weet, how inaignifleant in ootapanaon would her history have been. How plain were the steps of Providence leading np to thia triumph of diplo macv—Napoleon aorely in need of funds and fearful of foaing with no returns hia continental possession*, and France on the verge of war with England, these were the oeoditioos under which Thomas Jefferaoa secured to the A me ri cam government the immense stretch of country vest enough for half a dosen empires. Ia the light of present day achievements Napolean's own words read like prophecy—“Thisaoceasionof territory strengthens forever the power of the United States, and I have jaat given to England a maritime rival that will sooner or later bamble her pride.” I had thooght to point oat in this disoonme several instances where, in our otril war history God's ooold be distinctly -seen and bia voice plainly beard; boll must content myself with n single instance I have compared Gen. Sherman with Kapolean Bonaparte and I deliever the

Let our Thanksgiving today rlae above our regard for material tliiugs and partake of the lofty spirit which prompted oar forefatbers to estsblieli and celebrate this annual festival. Thanksgiving should lead to thanksliving.

_e called e rival to Sherman'i march from Atlanta. to tne sea. The marching was cyclonic and Gen. Grant sent thia acknowledgement to Gen. Sherman— ”Y<en have accompli abed the most gigantic onderiaking of any man in tbie<war. ” It was at halt past four o’clock in the morning, Mamh 15. *64 that the reveille sounded.

Hezeklah. seems to have had a aodly mother, who brought him up u fear and serve God. When he became king at the age of K. he at once began bis religious reform*, and Ood says of him: "He did that which was right In the sight of the Lord, accord*ng to all that David hi* father had done. " He reopened the temple and sommocod the priests and Levlte* and ordered them to sanctify themaelvea and then to cleanse the temple and restore Its fittings and furnishings. Our lessor, takes up the story at the point where thia work has been accomplished. The Lesson OntUna. THEME -A Great Revival. I. The Preparations.—vs. U. a (1) Filthiness Put Away -v.

Sunday night lectures. high-priced, unconverted choir singers, church debu. gossip anl frivolous talk after meeting, are some of the many things that are as rubbish In a church, and must be denned out before the revival can come. (I) Th* Lord's Vessels Restored, ▼. 14.—If there la anything being withheld from God which belongs to Him. must be restored before He can give the islng—Mai. 8:10. These vessels had been dedicated to the Lord’s service and afterwards tal:en and put to unholy use*. We do something very similar to thia when we consecrate ourselves to the Lord's service and then go and give ourselves. our time, our energies, our ablliUea and money to the “wortd. the flesh and the devil.” There ia need that we restore unto the Lord that which belong* to Him. ere we can expect that the revival blessing will come tons or to the

Lord’s church.
