Were we not fast becoming a worldly, sensual, godless na- tion? I design not now to enumerate or to re- prove the mass of national or of individual vices. I confine myself to but one aspect. I ask your atten- tion to but one single point. AVill you not all admit, that the great strife, which agitated the whole nation, like a stormy sea, the ground-swell not yet over, was entered into, and conducted, and the issue wel- comed, in forgetfulness of God ; in utter and mistaken confidence in human wi...sdom, human power, and human worth ? As the great contest drew towards its crisis, did not all ears, all eyes, all hearts intensely fix themselves on the report, as it was borne from state to state ; as if the election of this candidate, or that, involved all fears, all hopes, all destinies ; and God were not in heaven? But, "be the people never so unquiet, " God is there. " The shields of the earth belong to Him. " And, " cursed be the man that maketh flesh his arm, " however long his justice may delay the sentence, will be asserted, in terrific ven- geance, upon every nation, and upon every individual.
