Excerpt from A Sermon Preached on the National Thanksgiving Day, November 26th, 1863 It is man's prerogative alone, as head of the animal creation, to register and rehearse the deeds of his Maker. Brute creatures behold events, but they behold them as facts not as phenomena, that witness to a power behind, and within, and above. Another and yet higher attribute of man is, that he can sort these facts into a system and a sequence can develope a design in the deeds of his Maker can prove a plan in His providence, and bear wit ness to a wisdom in all the ways of God as he traverses His world to and fro; and so man can lay his intellect alongside of God's mind. And a third and superlative faculty of man is, that what his mind thus perceives his heart and soul appreciates and adores. He is mute with admiration. He thrills with reverence. He is rapt and possessed with love. He rises to his feet and shouts his exulting gratitude, and thus his heart and soul are side by side with God's heart. They pulse together. The sympathy makes them one. This attribute of man is moral not mental, higher and diviner than mind, for mind is a mechanism but the moral is a character and a state of being. This makes man kin to the angels even while he' is first cousin to the brutes. It proves him capable of Heaven even while he crawls and gropes in the dust and dirt of the earth.

Excerpt from National Thanksgiving; A Sermon: Preached in the First Presbyterian Church of Cranbury, New Jersey, on November 26, 1863 It is not in accordance with my purpose to discuss those foundations now. Let me only say, that in exercising this right the extent, manner, time, and place must be determined by each man. Of course it ought to be exercised With prudence and common sense. But without these qualities no man is quali fied to preach the gospel at all. But my whole soul revolts against the doctrine that there are subjects upon which ministers and the church have no right to speak. This is one of the most specious fallacies of the great adversary of souls; and nothing could please wicked men better.

Excerpt from God, the Help of the Nation: A Sermon Delivered in Trinity Church, Pittsburgh, on the Day of National Thanksgiving, Appointed by the Present of the United States, November 26, 1863 "Hitherto hath the Lord helped us." 1 Samuel vii. 12. There had been a protracted war between the children of Israel and the Philistines, very disastrous to the former, in several instances; so much so as to discourage them greatly and "make them afraid of the Philistines." And "the children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry unto the Lord our God for us, that He will save us out of the hand of the Philistines." The humiliation of the people for their manifold transgressions, which had brought such severe national calamities upon them, with the deprecations and supplications of the prophet of God in their behalf, had propitiated the Divine favor.
