" And as we gather here this morning, after an absence of only two days, how appalling, in this cheerful home of our religious affections, are these wide-hung emblems of grief and anguish ! It is manly to weep to-day. The coming of the morning, and also the night, are strangely mingled. Had death overtaken any one of our brilliant military leaders in the field, we should have said it was a thing to be expected. Had any sudden reverse in the fortunes of war visited one of our armies, it would ha...ve been a terrible grief, but still a kind of calamity to which we have become accus- tomed. Had the President fallen by a chance shot in Richmond, or by the hand of some lurk- ing assassin, as he passed the fortifications through which our hearts did not consent to his going, 45 we should but have realized some of our transient forebodings. But after his sale return, and the triumph of our arms, which he took so much pleasure in telegraphing to the people, we had almost dismissed from our minds any fears for the safety of his life.
