A. ... or; ana tor years ana yec io come will a grateful people, with each recurring anniversary of the death of the erood and erreat Stonewall Jackson, nav homage to the patriotism and valor of the honored men who wore the grey. And in so commemorating their virtues, there is no disrespect to the brave men who opposed them in so many hard fought battles, as is attest ed by the inscription upon the shaft n our cemetery : 'A generous foe contributed to the erection of this monument," and by the further fact hat at Monday's exercises, side by side with the Rifles' companv flasr floated the. Union ensign recently pre sented that Companv. as a token of brotherly love, by the 27th Massachu setts. The exercises opened with a direre by the Band, followed bv the singing of "Nearer my God to Thee," by the choir. After which Rev. J. M. Hilyar, cnaplain ot the Kines, ottered the fol owing earnest PRAYER. Almighty God : Creator of all thincrs. in whom we live and move and have our being : fjord of Heaven and Earth : Kuler of our des tinies ; Judge of our thoughts, words and ac tions ; most merciful, compassionate and lov ing Father ; we. Thy creatures. Thy servants. Thy subjects, -Thy children, would draw near Thy throne of grace, humbly beseeching Thee to bow Thine ear and hear us : we acknowl edge and confess the many things in which we have offended against Thee ; we are not worthy of the least of the blessings Thou hast be stowed upon us ; our hearts are wayward, our inougnts are vain, our ways are evu ; and yet Thou dost not deal with us according to our sins, nor reward us according to our iniauities: but according to Thy manifold and great mer cies- or numDeriess tokens or Thine un merited love we would raise our hearts and our voices in fervent thanksgiving; we would bless Thy holy name for our life, our health, our strength, our work, our homes, and all the nappiness tney Drlng with them. But yet more deeply, yet more earnestly, would we pour out our gratitude for spiritual blessings ; for the knowledge of Thy Word ; for the reve lation of Thy tnrth : for the gift of Thv King dom ; and, here and now. most eSDeciallv. for the lives of those who have made Thv king dom a living power amongst us. We would thank Thee for the noble examDles of the dead whom we to-day commemorate ; for the self denial, the self sacrifice, thecourage, the patriotism which carried them from the peiice and plenty and joy of a thousand homes, to brave danger, to endure privation and hard ship, to stand in the deadlv shock of battle. and, not counting their lives dear unto them selves, to lay them willingly down for duty, country and home. O gracious and merciful Father! we beseech Thee to keep us mindful of Thy gifts and blessings ; to give us true re pentance and amendment of life: to fill us with the spirit of gratitude, obedience and self sacrifice. And as we recall the memory of these, our honored dead, we imploie Thee to voucihsare unto us the continuation of the spirit with which Thou didst inspire them. Thou hast given us Peace ; we may gather the harvest of our fields in safety; " the thunder of the Captains and of the shouting" is no longer heard in the land; but spiritual foes are still arrayed against Thy Kingdom and Thy people. O Lord God of Hosts ! . As these whose memory we now reca'l. strove, even unto death, for duty: so mav wo. treadinsr in their footsteps, inspired bv their examnle. maintain the .conflict, manfully and stead fastly, against falsehood, impurity, pride, in temperance, cruelty, and every base and evil thing; may we uphold, live for, and if it be Thy will, be ready to die for truth, gentleness, chastity, peace, kindness: may we thus, fight- ng under the banner of Christ crucified, take our part faithfully and patiently in the ad vance, over the forces of misery and sin. to wards that sweet and blessed consummation where, according to Thv Word. "nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more, "when "the knowl edge of the Xiord shall cover ftie earth as the waters cover the sea:" when "the neaco of God, which passeth all understanding " shall reign amongst us, to be broken or disturbed no more. We ask all in the name of Him who taught us to come to Thee, saying Our Father which art in heaven. Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us thi? day our daily bread. And forgive us our lebts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil : For thine is the kingdom, and the Dower. and the glory, for ever. Amen. Another hymn was then suncr by tlie cnoir; alter which Mr. C. B. Av cock, in a few well-timed remarks, in troduced the orator of t e occasion our talented fellow-citizen. Henrv Lee, Esq., whose excellent address elicited the highest encomiums from the large assembly of attentive lis teners, and which will be found upon the hrst page or our issue or to-day. ine oration was roiiowea ov music by the band and by the choir; decorat ing the graves and firing salutes, by the Kines.
