TAIMAGE THUS CHARAC TERIZES WAR'S HORRORS. • The Orf\t Preaclirr Drjilorrn Strife, hut Point* Out It* AMrvlation* -A Sermon of Chrrr For n Saddened People—War For Humanity. Copyright. 1898. by American IYcps Asso ciation.) Washington, -May 15.—Most perti nent to tiie exciting times tbruuifli which wo aro now passing is this ser mon of Dr. Talniago, in which ho pro poses to cheer the people who sire sad dened by tho horrors of war; text, Psalms xxvii, U, “Though war should rise against mo, in this will 1 ho con fident.” Tho ring of battlcases and tho clash of shields and the tramp of armies are card all up and down the Old Testa- nt, and you find godly soldiers liko s and Joshua and Caleb and tiid- eon Ad scoundrelly soldiers likeScnua- cberiNknd Shalmaneser and Nebuchad- nezzar.^^L'bo high priest would stand at the bc^Lof tho army and say, “Hear O Israel, yi^pproach this day unto bat tle against jaW enemies, lot not your hearts faint, ft% not and do not trem ble, neither be terrified because of them!” and then tVi officers would give command to the trooos, saying: “What man is there that isth built a new house and hath not Abdicated it? Let him go and return to his house, lest ho die in the battle aud another man dedi cate it. And what man is be that hath planted a vineyard and hath not eaten of it? Let him also go aud return unto bis honse, lest bo die in tho battle and another man eat of it. Aud what man is there that bath betrothed a wife aud hath not taken her. Let him go and re turn unto his house, lest he die in the battle and another man take her.” Great armies marched and fought. In time of Moses and Joshua all the men were soldiers. When Israel came out of Egypt, they were 600,000 fighting men. Abijah commanded 400,000. Jeioboam commanded 800,000 men, of whom 500,- 000 were slain in one battle. Some of these wars God approved, for they were for tho rescue of oppressed nations, and some of them he denounced, but in all cases it was a judgment upon both vic tors and vanquished. David knew just what war was when ho wrote in the text, "Though war should rise against mo, in this will I be confideut. “ David is encouraging himself in stormy times, and before approaching battles administers to himself the con solatory. So today my theme is tho “Alleviations of War.” War is organ ized atrocity. It is tho science of assas sination. It is the convocation of all horrors. It is butchery wholesale. It is murder glorified. It is death on a throne of human skeletons. It is the coffin in ascendency. It is diabolism at a game of skulls. But war is here, and it is time uow to preach on its alluviations. Marvelous Providence. First I find an alleviation in the fact that it has consolidated tho north and the south after long continued strained relations. It is 83 years since cur civil war closed, aud tho violences are all gone aud the severities have been hush ed. But ever and auen, in oration, in sermon, in newspaper editorial, in mag azine article, on political stump and in congressional hall tho old sectional dif ference has lifted its head, and for the first time within my memory or the memory of any one who hears or reads these words tho north and tho south are one. By a marvelous providence tho family that led in opposition to onr government 80 years ago is represented at the front in this present war. Noth ing else could have done tho work of unification so suddenly or so completely as this conflict. At Tampa, at Chatta nooga, at Richmond and in many other places tho regiments are forming, and it will beside by side—Massachusetts aud Alabama, New York aud Georgia, Illi nois and Louisiana, Maine aud Sonth Carolina. Northern and southern men will together nnlimber the guns and rush upon the fortification and charge upon tho enemy aud shout the triumph. The voices of military officers who were under Sidney Johnson and Joseph Hook er will give the command on the same side. The old sectional grudges forever dead. The name of Grant on the north ern side and of Lee on the southern side will be exchanged for the names of Grant and Lee on the same side. The veterans in northern and southern homes and asylums are stretching their rheu matic limbs to see whether they cau again keep step in a march and are test ing their eyesight to find whether they can again look along the gnu barrel to successfully take aim and fire. The old warcry of “On to Richmond 1” and “On to Washington 1“ has become the war- cry of “On to Havana!” “On to Puerto Rico!’’ “On to the Philippine islands!’’ The two old rusty swords that in other days clashed at Murfreesboro and South Mountain and Atlanta are now lifted to ■trike down Hispanic abominations. Inspired by Mercy. Another alleviation of the war is the fact that it is the most unselfish war of the ages. While the commercial rights ^of onr wronged citizens will be viudi- #ted that is not the chief idea of this It is the rescue of hundreds of jmsandsof people from starvation and |tiform maltreatment. A friend who out under the flag of the Red ktwo years ago to assuage suffering lenia, and who has been on the jission, nnder the same flag, in lys that the sufferings in Ar- /ere a comedy and a farce com- ?ith the greater sufferings of 'At least 200,060 graves are call- i us to come on and remember by It process their occnpants died. It r tbe twentieth icntnry crying out to iae nineteenth: “Do you mean to pass swu to us the curse with which you kve been blasted? Or will you let me rgin under new auspices and turn the island of desolr.tiou into an Island Edeoitr* It is a war inspired by mercy, which is an attribute in man imitative of the same attiibute of God. In no other age of the world could finch a war have been waged. The grmpel of kindness needed to bo recognized throughout Christendom in order to make such a war possible. Tho chief reason why most of the European nations aro*. not now banded together against us is be- ca.ise they dura not toko the part of that behemoth of cruelty, the Spanish government, against tho crasudu of mercy which our nation has started. Had it been on our part a war of con quest, a war of annexation, a war of aggrandizement, there would have been by this time enough flying squadrons coming to this country across tho At lantic to throw into panic every city on our American seaboard. The wars of the crasadors were only to regain an empty sepulcher; tho Na poleonic wars, with their 6,000,000 slaughtered men, were projected and carried out to appease the ambition of one man; of the 25,000,000 slain in Jewish wars, and of tho 60,000,000 slain in wars under Julius Ciosar; of the 180,000,000 slain ill wars with Turks aud Saracens; of the 50,000,000 filaiu in wars of Xerxes; of the 20,000,- 000 slain in wars of Justinian, and tho 32,000,000 slain in tho wars of Genghis Khan, not one man was sacrificed by mercy, but in this Hispanic-American war every drummer boy or picket or gunner or standard bearer or skirmisher or sharpshooter or cavalryman or artil leryman or engineer who falls falls in the cause of mercy aud becomes a mar tyr fer God aud his country. Spain Will He Free. Another alleviation of this war is that it is for the advancement of the sublime principle of liberty, whieb will yet engirdle the earth. Not only will this war free Cuba, but finally will free Spain. By what right does a dynasty like that stand, aud a corrupt court dom inate a people for centuries, taxing them to death, riding in gilded chariot over the necks of a beggared population? There are 10,000 hoys in Spain growing up with more capacity to govern that nation than will the weak boy now in the Madrid palace ever possess. Before this conflict is over the Spanish nation will be well on toward the time when a constitutional convention will assem ble to establish a free government in stead of tho woruout dyuaity that now afflicts tho people. The liberty of all nations, transatlantic as well as cisat lantic, if not already established, is on the way, aud it cannot be stopped. Napoleon III thought be had success fully driven the principle out of F-'anco when, on the 2d day of December, 1851, be rode down the Champs Elsyees . of Paris, constitutional government seemingly trashed under the hoofs of his steed. But did it stay crushed? Let the batteries on the heights above iscdan answer, and tho shout of 250,000 con quering hosts and tho letter of surren der to Emperor William tell tho story. “Sire, My Brother—Not having been able to die in the midst of my troops, it only remains for mo to place my sword in your majesty’s hands. I am, your majesty, yonr good brother, Napoleon. Sedan, 1 September, 1870.’’ That mou- arehy having fallen, then tho French republic resumed its march. Another alleviation is that the wnr opens with a great victory for the Unit ed States. It took our goveruiuent four yea’s to get over the fiasco at Bull Run. A defeat at the start of this present war would have been disheartening to the last degree and would have invited for eign intervention to stop the war before anything practical for God aud human ity hud been accomplished aud would have prolonged the strife, for which we arc hoping a quick termination. In the most jubilant manner let this victory of onr navy ba celebrated. With the story of the exploding battleship fresh in the minds of tho world it required no ordinary courage to sail into tho harbor of Manilla and attack the Span ish shipping. That harbor, crowded with sunken weaponry of death, to en ter it was running a risk enough to make all nations shiver. But Manilla is ours, aud the blow has shaken to the fonndation the palaces of Madrid, and for policy’s sake tho doubtful nations aro on our side. For Commodore Dew ey aud all who followed him let the whole nation utter its most resounding huzza, and more than that, let us thank the Lord of hosts for bis guiding and protecting power. “Praise ye tho Lord. Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord.’’ A War For the Right. Another alleviation is the fnet that in this war the might is on the side of the right. Again and again have liber ty and justice aud suffering humanity had the odds against them. It was so when Benhadad’s Syrian hosts, who were in the wrong, at Aphek came np- on the small regiments of Israel, who were in the right, the Bible putting it in one of those graphic sentences for which the book is remarkable, “Tho children of Israel pitched before them like two little flocks of kids, bnt the Syrians filled the whole country.” It was so in tbeawfnl defeat of the Lord’s people at Gilboa aud Megiddo. It was so recently when gallant and glorious Greece was in conflict with gigantic Mohammedanism, and the navies of Europe hovering abont the Bosporus were in practical protection of tho Turk ish goverumeut, fresh from tho slaugh ter of 100,000 Armeniaus. It was so when in 1776 the 18 colonies, with no war shipping aud a few uudrilled and poorly clad soldiers, were brought into a contest with the mightiest navy of •’.1 the earth aud an army that com manded the admiration of nations. It was so when Poland was crushed. It was so when Hungary went under. It baa been so during all the struggles heretofore for Caban independence. But now it is our powerful navy against a feeble group of incompetent ships, crawling across the Atlantic to meet our flotillas, which have enough guns to send them as completely under as when the Red sea submerged Pbaraoh’i army. It Is so in these times, when on ly a few thousand Spaniards at moat can reach onr hemisphere, and wc go out to meet them with 125,000 armed men, to bo backed npspeedily with 500,- 000 more if needed. Wo do not huvo to nek for any mirac! \ but only a fair shot at tho ships headed this way and time enough to demolish them. This is one of tho cases in the world's history where mizht and right aro shoulder to shoulder. Doom of Snwln. Another alleviation is in the fact that such an atrocity as the destruction of 266 lives in Havana harbor in time of peace cannot with impunity be wrought in this age of tho world’s civi lization. The question as to who did that infernalism is too well settled to need any further discussion. But what a small crime it was compared with the systematic putting into their graves of hundreds of thousands of Cubans, or leaving them uuburied for the buzzards to take care of. If Spain could destroy 200,000 men, women aud children, tho slaughter of 266 people was not a very great undertaking. Bnt this one last deed will result in the liberation of Cu ba and the driving of Spain from this hemisphere and the overthrow of that government, which will soon drop to pieces if it does not go down under bombardment of insulted natious. There was danger that the long con tinued oppression of our neighbors in Cuba might be continued from genera tion togenerfftiou without sufficient pro test on our part aud the pronounced exe cration of people on both sides of the Atlantic, but that bursting volcano of destruction in the harbor of Havana fired the nation and shocked the whole civi lized world. All nations will learn that such au act cannot be repeated witboat the anathema of all Christendom. As individual criminals must be punished for the public good and we have for them courts of oyer and terminer and penitentiaries aud electric chairs aud Liaugman’s gallows,so governments com mitting high crimes against God and humanity must be scourged and hung up for tho world’s indignation. When in Spanish waters our battleship, lookiug after our commercial interests aud in tending nothing but quietude, was hurl ed into demolition aud the men on board, without time to utter one word of prayer, were dashed into the eternal world, the doom of the reigning house of Spain was pronounced in tones louder than the thunder which that night roll ed out over the sea. Onr Itopa In God. Another alleviation is the fact that wo have a God to go to in behalf of all those of onr countrymen who may ho in especial exposure at tho front, for we must admit the perils. It is no trifling thing for 100,000 young men to be put outside of homo restraints aud sometimes into evil companionship. Many of the bravo of the earth are not tho good of tho earth. To b3 in the same tent with those who have no regard for God or home, to hear their holy religion some times slurred at, to bo placed under in fluences calculated to make one reckless, to have no Sabbath except such Sabbath as in most encampments amounts to no Sabbath at all, to go out from homes where all sanitary laws aro observed into surroundings where questions of health are never discussed, to invade climea where pestilence holds possession, to make long marches under bli.-tering skies, to stand on deck and in the fields under fire, at the mercy of shot and shell, we must admit that those t!ius ex posed need especial care, and to tho omnipresent God wo have a right to commend them and will commend them. Postal communication may bo interrupt ed, and letters started from camps or homes may not arrive at the right desti nation, but, however far away our loved ones may he from us and however wide and deep tho seas tout separate us, wo may hold communication with them via the threue of God. A shipwrecked sailor was found float ing on a raft near the coast cf Califor nia. While in hospital be told his expe rience and said that he had a compan ion cu tho same raft for some time. Whilo that companion was dying of thirst he said to him, “George, where are you going?" aud the dying bailor said, “I hopo I am going to God.” “If you do,” said the resoned sailor, “will you ask him to send some water?” After the death of his companion, tho survivor said, tho rain came in torrents and slak ed his thirst and kept him alive until he was taken to safety. The survivor al ways thought it was in answer to the message he had sent to heaven asking for water. Thank God we may have di rect and instantaneous communication with tho Lord Almighty through Jesus Christ, his only begotten Sou, and in that faith we may secure the rescue of our imperiled kindred! Is not that a mighty alleviation? Until this conflict is ended let ns be mneb in prayer for onr beloved coun try. Do not let ns depend upon tho friendship of foreign natious. Onr hope is in God. Out of every misfortune he has brought this nation to a better mor al aud financial condition, and so let us pray that be will lift os oat of this valley of trouble into a higher moun tain of blessing. It is a mystery that just as this coun try was recovering from a long season of hard times so many of car industries should uow be halted; that business men who thought they could see their way to pay their debts aud build up more prosperous enterprises and endow their homes with more advantages should have to halt and wait until the perfidious oppressor of Cnba shall be turned back. But individual and nation al life is always clothed with mysteries, and we may make ourselves miserable by stabbing ourselves with sharp inter rogation points and plying tho everlast ing questions of “Why?” and “How?” and “What:” aud “When?” While we mast, of oourse, try to be intelligent on all pablio affairs, it is a glorious thing to do onr duty and then fully aud con fidently trust all in the bauds of God, who has proved himself the friend of our country from the time when ti Spanish government fitted nut an ex) dition to discover it to this tiine who.. Spaniards would like to destroy it. Bntclirry Mont Ka Kndcd. Morning, noon and night let nn com mend tliis beloved laud to tho care of a gracious Cod. That ho answers prayer is so certain that your religion is a hallucination if ho does not answer it. Pray that in reply to such i:npplieatio;i tho farmers’ boys may got home again in time to roan the harvest of next .In ly, that onr business men may return in time to prepare for a fall trade such us him never yet tilled the stores and factories with customers, r.ud that all the homes in this country now saddened by tho departure of father or brother or sou may mcctba before tho Thanksgiv ing uud Christmas holidays bo full of joy at the arrival of those who will for the rest of their lives have storms to tell of double quick march, aud narrow escapes, uud charges up the parapets, aud nights set on tire with bombard ment, aud our flag hauled up to places from wLich other flags were hauled down. Now that wo have started on the work lot us make that Spanish govern ment get out of this hemisphere.’ We do not want her any more, with her in justices aud barbarism and stilettos of cruelty hanging around the shores of this free land. She must not breathe her foul breath on our winds; she must not again redden oar seas with her butcheries. There bids fair to be a scene on the deep as disastrous to the Spanish as that which whelmed their armada in 1588. Philip II, king of Spain, resolved on the conquest of Europe, and already in the compass of bis dominions, besides Spain, were Naples and Sicily, aud tho Netherlands, aud the East Indies, aud the Canary aud Molucca and Suuda aud Philippine islands, aud Mexico aud Cu ba and some of tho most splendid parts of America. All the nations of tho earth except England were to her un derlings, aud the Spanish king resolved that even England must bow the knee. Although the destructive strength of modern battleships was then unknown, tho Spanish armada started for the sub jection of England with about 140 great ■hips, with 2,600 guns, 4,000 cavalry horses and 32,000 tuuu. The battleships wore provisioned with 147,000 casks of wine and six mouths' provisions. The commanders aud officers of these war vessels were dukes and marquises aud noblemen. At Plymouth, England, on the IUth of July, the prominent officers of the navy were in u bowling alley, bowling with great glee—Lord Howard, the high admiral; Sir Martin Frobish er, tiie daring explorer, aud Sir Francis Drako, tho first circumnavigator of the world—when word came to them that the Spanish armada was advancing. Thu oflicers continued at the game o? tho bowling alley until the game was finished and then went out to investi gate the tidings, and sure enough that mighty fleet which was considered iu- , vincible, and which was to bombard i and overthrow England, was approach- j ing; but the invading navy was destroy ed, for tho Lord Almighty appeared in : the fight God RHffn*. A storm such us had never swept the ! coast of England or aroused the ocean, swooped upon tho Spuuijh armada. Most of the ships soon went down un der the sea, whilo others wero driven helplessly along to bo splintered on the coasts of England, Ireland, Scotland aud Norway. Another Spanish armada is crossing tho Atlantic aud we aro ready to meet it. Tho same God who destroyed tiie armada in 1588 reigns in 1808. Maybe in bis might, either through human armor dumb ele ment, defeat their squadron, and give victory to the old flag of Admiral Furra- gut aud David Porter! Yet what tho world most wants is Christ, who is coming to take posses sion of all hearts, all homes, all na tions, but the world blocks the wheels of bis chariot. I would like to see this century, which is now almost wound up, flud its peroration in some mighty overthrow of tyrannies aud a mighty building np of liberty aud justice. Al most all tho centuries have ended with some stupendous event that transformed nations and changed the map of tho world. It was so at the close of the fourteenth century; it was so at the close of the fifteenth century; it was so at the close of the sixteenth century; it was so at tho close of the seventeenth cen tury; it was so at the close of the eight eenth century. May it be more glori ously so at the close of the nineteenth century! “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlastiug to everlasting, and let the whole earth be filled with his glory. ” Amen, and Amen. 400,000 Tlu> How to Adtlrr** n Hlahop or on AnB*i. It is a fallacy to suppose that tho title “lord, ” applied to a bishop, be longs to him only as a member of the bouse of lords. There is a spiritual hierarchy as well as a temporal peerage, ami the one Ins us much right to n title as the other. Just as a priest was styled "sir,” so a bishop is a “lord,"and graduates aro still culled “domiui” at tho universities. In Elizabeth’s time the suffragan bishop of Dover was styled j “My lord of Dover.” The following j extract from a letter written by tho ' Right Hon. R. A. Cross, secretary of | state (now Viscount Cross), to the arch- j 11:1 bishop of Canterbury, May 22, 18,4, , , ;;n „. sist . reads: “There is ample documentary ovi- dottco that the predecessors of tho pres ent bishops suffragan were, up to the | disuse of their office in the reign of James I, every whit, whether by right ; or courtesy, as much ‘lord bishops’ aa tho diocesans peers of parliament.” See more in Crockford’s Clerical Dic tionary, 1896, page 78. Moreover, the angels of the seven churches iu Revelation ii and iii are commonly understood to be bishops, aud, according to our English Bible, tho proper way to address au angel is “My lord.” See Genesis xix, 18; Judges vi, 13; Daniel x, 17; Zechariah i, 9; iv, 5, etc.—Notes aud Queries.
