Lessons of International and Divine Love Drawn From the Great Discovery. “Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto Thy name give glory,” was the text of a dis- course at the Church of the Holy City, Dupont Circle, yesterday morning by Rev. Frank Sew- all. He said: The key-note of all the celebra- tions at the centers of civilization throughout the world commemornting the colossal event of 400 years ago should be these words in | recognition of a power, a greatness, a goodness not ourown as being the source of all the Diessings, all the progress, all the prosperity we enjoy. And especially in this land, in cele- brating the discovery of America, are we honor- ing that in which we ourselves had naught what- ever to do.for which we can claim no merit. All | self-laudation,all self-glorification are here con- | spicuonsly out of place. The glory of this | event is surely “not unto us.” | As Columbas reverently knelt in thanksgiv- ing to Almighty God and consecrated the new foil to the worship of the Lord Jesus Christ by Janting therein the cross of the Christian relig- ion, 80 let us acknowledge fhe providence of God in all honors we pay to the instrumentali- | ties employed by divine wisdom. | Let this event bring us into a more real | sense of our relation to our fellow-beings of the human race, to those of other religions, other | civil institutions, other nations. | First of all, the heroism of a fellow-man to whone patient study, indefatigable zeal, de- termined purpose, steadfast courage and un- hk we owe this truly heroic achiove- ment. It ix the fashion of men to like to be- little those who have become the world’s heroes, to find ont flaws in their character and their work, and so to magnify their own petty criticisms as to put out of sight the really great and noble aspects of the character assailed. ‘This is not the time to attack the reputation of Ch jumbus. _ It is far more benef e .d to our children to dwell upon his heroic qualities and heartily recognize and honor these, than to be searching out defects and blinding our own eyes by the dust we aire. His name was prophetic; “Christo ferens,” “bearer of Christ,” “Columbo,” “a dove. a messenger.” bringing the light of Christianit; toa world in heathen darkness. That his worl was marred by human frailties who denies? None knew this better than he. Who are w his feeble and erring fellow men, to condemn him? God does not make use of perfect men, even as instruments for great work, else the work would never be done. He uses those human qualities. courage, faith, perseverance, skill, en- jurance and trust in God, nay, even the ‘mo- tives of selfish gain. ambition, for a worldly glory, He uses as mighty instruments for great ends, serve the world’s great needs human in- struments will not be wanting, thoagh the human race hus not attained its perfection. HONOR To ITALY. Next to Columbus let us honor the name of the Italian land and nation that gave him birth. True, his country was at that day of indepen- arring republies, a city rather than dent | a unites but it wasa city that belonged toa race that in the age of Columbus and th centuries just preceding gave to the world men who were its beacon lights im nearly all the civilization that followe leo, Giordano, Bruno, Dante, Giolto, Michael Angelo and Raphael—not unworthy descendants of that Rome whose empire was the world, and the fi set up in the weatorn world, under | the Me 8, those great lights of learn- ing and philosophy, yea, of religion, which, with the invasion of the Turk, had died in the cast To the Italian genius,their love of adventure, their vivid imagination, their passionate devo- tion to achosen parpose,and their clear, intuitive vision of the end desired, amounting ‘to almost acreative faculty, the secret of their art, to this «pirit working’ in the soul of the Genoese boatman, as he lay beneath the stars, thinking sbiem of the skies, we owe this con- is bold project, this achi the discovery of the new world. 8 do well to set up monuments to Columbus, and so to their own honor as to the race chosen by Providence to be the medium of this great gift of a continent to the nations of the earth. ‘THE DEBT TO RELIGION. Next, let us not terget what we owe, not only toa nation different from ours, but espe- cially toa religion different from ours, not dif- ferent as having nothing in common, when it is | the very light of Christhunity itself ‘which Co- lombus was commissioned to bear to this conti- nent. This light of the Christian faith had up to that time been fostered alone by the one Catholic Church of Christendom. Whatever Bibles were recorded, whatever universities were founded wherein the Bibles might be newly translated, it was the Catholic Church which preserved these Bibles and founded these universities. It is a light thing now for Churches to have Bibles in abundance to scatter road over the earth, but think what it was before 1440, before the art of printing was known, when every Bible meant a copy written by hand, aud that with prayerful accuracy and rential awe. How many Bibles would our Protestant churches of today find time to write out by hand? The Catholie Church had kept alive amid all the harsh turmoil and bloody struggles of the dark ages this lamp of the word of God! The faith and religious purpose, such as it was, and whatever it was, which inspired Columbus, was the ontcome under Divine Frovidence of the religious influence of the church of that age. We do ourselves a benefit to recognize the wholesome, noble and beautiful elements of? that religious culture, whatever may have marred it then and afterward. God could ust that religious faith. that spirit of devotion. that heaven-inspired zeal for His great pur- poses us see to it that our own religious customs and means of culture are producing equally high types of manly and Christian heroism. And we are not to forget what we owe to the sovereigns of Castile and Aragon, and es- pecially to Queen Isabella, who became, in the face of the scorn of the world, the enthusiastic supporter of Columbus, Not ‘a small part of the honor belonging to her is that she deserves for her stern rebuke of her zealous subject when he sent home in chains as slaves large numbers of the captared natives of the newly discovered lands. The chains in which he himself returned as prisoner under the rebuke of his sovereigns and which he in said to have buried with his body may have been a secret reminder to him of his own unworthiness be- fore God more than as a token of the indignity he received from men In this world’s great holiday, therefore, we may see that we owe the event we celebrate to Italy, to Spain, the Catholic Church and through all these to the Divine Providence that les the affairs of men. ‘The great law of charity, of mutual service among all the races and nations of the earth ia thus iustrated, each of us forming severally, not groping and warring fragments of manity, but, in God’s sight, a great fraternity, a noble organization patterned after_no less an image than the divine form itself. What those and their religion did was but one gorgeous thread in the great woof of God's weaving, and a nation was to come after them to do the work ther could not do, to develop the resources of this new world and turn these to grand results for all humanity.

At the request of the John Brown Monument Association many of the pastors of the colored churches of the city made John Brown and his life the subject of their remarks yesterday— the day being the thirty-third anniversary of his raid. The Asbury M. E. Church, 11th and K streets northwest, was filled yesterday morn- ing in anticipation of the Rev. J. W. E.Bowen's remarks, He stated that owing to other en- Sagements he would not be able to make as ex- tended an addresa as he had hoped. Later he would do so. He announced as his text the Third Philippiane, 13th, 14th and 15th verses. The importance of sin of purpose, snid the speaker, was the thought he desired 10 impress upon his hearers. That was the lesson the life and death of John Brown taught. No inan possessing a judicial mind was fit to boa great reformer. The reformers, the great Movers for good in the history of the world, Were men of singlenoss of purpose, men who, in the advocacy of their purpose and in the fur- therance of their cause, lost sight of the conse- fuences to themselves. “Such men have but one At saturates their being and controls their every movement. So filled and moved was John Brown on that October day just thirty- three years ago. He could have escaped, but he did not care to doo. He could not in tho fame sense that Christ could not escape the cross. Each were born to their work. It may have been a strange fatuity which took posses- sion of John Brown the night of October 16, 1869, in that little fort at Harper's Forry. But he believed in the case which filled him and he died upon the scaffold without » quiver for it. SLAVERY WAS WRONG. The speaker referred to the fact that John Brown had been calied a fanatic, a bigot and a crank, and, in fact, everything that would make his name odious, But whatever he was, ho knew that slavery was wrong and he set out to do all in his power to break it down. It some- times happens that God moves through one man and so it was that He selected old John Brown. The tragedy of October 16, 1859, began to open the eves of the country to the horrors of slavery, the pot began to boil and the people soon saw that the nation must do something. Yet God was leading, God was managing. To ke movbd by a grand sentiment—by prin- ciple—was the sign of divinity, the highest Power in the world. Leaders’ must die, and whoever dies for principle attains in the hearts of the people the eoul of thut principle. God has written on the walls of time that man shall be free, and that principle—the one John Brown died for—has become part of every people. Today, from north to south. east to west, the refrain, ‘John Brown's body lies a-moldering in his grave, but his soul goes marching on,” is sung. Yet the saving of the country is but half done. The great struggle for freedom, the freedom to be a man, to be a t man, the freedom to be protected Is but alf done. The work will be completed in time, and it will be finished through the press, and in our homesand churches. The colored race should never forget the memory of John Brown, and they should see that his work is commemorated in a suitable monument here at the nation’s capital. Among those who listened to the Rev. Mr. Bowen's brief remarks was the venerable Fredk. Douglass, Thrown From a Train. Perey H. Wilson, a young man living at 1900 street, was thrown from the Alexandria train on Saturday evening near the south end of the Long bridge while the train was round- ing the curve.

Already an address has been issued by the incorporators and subscriptions asked for the capital stock. The proposed institution was brought to the note of the Union Veterans’ Union at its last session by a resolution, offered ty Gen. Neil Dumont, providing for the forma- tion. The resolution was referred to a dis- tinguished committee, consisting of Gen. Dumont, Gen. Rutherford B. Hayes, Gen. Green Clay Smith, Gen. 8. 8. Yoder, Gen. Jno. HL Roberts and Gen. 0. A. Janes, and was after- ward adopted. The resolution outlined the plans for the in- stitution, and proposed that 10,000 acres of cheap lands be purchased in or contiguous to the mineral, coal and timber fields of some state having coal. iron, other mineral and tim- ber, which are adapted also to agriculture and ‘ing uses, and thereon establish a techno- logical echool of large capacity, at which shall be taught mining and civil engineering, working in timber, the digging, smelting, faring and weighing ‘of motals, the’ forging of and working therein, practical chomistry, ma- chine building and engineoring, the forces from which power is derived, how to produce, con- trol and get ite benefit, the rearing of all do- mestic animal, tanning and currying and all useful trades, the analysis of soils, the uses of all kinds of’ fertilizers, the study of grain, stock and fruit growing, the building and use of agricultural machinery and also practical agriculture; also the different schools of prac- tical agriculture; also the different schools of medicine, surgery, voterinarianism, drafting and other arts, daity ‘work, house work, the making of fabrics and of clothing. In discussing the plan the resolution said: “The thought in our minds is that many vet- erans cannot afford to send their children to the university and technological school now ex- isting, so that by establishing such a place as is outlined herein the men could be more prac cally taught to pay somothing, and at no cost to those who could not pay.” Thus we encour. age veterans to maintain their standing and order and give them a live object without di- Yerting the purpose. In a fow years such school might be making ite own clothing and raising its own food, be in a large measure self- wupporting, and by keeping up the, high rade of effort for practical culture, by bi ing inexpensive, substantial buildings from the material on the ground and the force in the school, erect @ monument to the rank and file of the war of 1861-65, which did the work of the war, one which will mark a brighter spot on the history than the scratches on monuments to men whom they made illustrious. We should trust that no mere creed should everenter there, and would insist that the worship of God and the teuchings of the holy scripture be by mem- bers true to the principles of our own and simi- lar organizations of Union soldiers. And to this end we invite the aid and co-operation of other organization’ of Union soldiers and sailors.” ‘The committee made a favorable report on these resolutions and the union ‘ordered the in- corporation and stocking of the institution on the lines laid out. ‘The incorporators were Rev.
