And let us not forget to render unto His holy name the thanks and praise which are so justly due for His great goodness, and for the many mercies which He has extended to us amid the trials and sufferings of protracted and bloody war.

The Northern States of this Union have, indeed, a civilization, which consists in the application of mechanical discoveries to the increase of individual gain; but the progress of this war has developed a latent barbarism only equalled by that of Russia. It is true, the material and national progress of the United States, up to 1861, was prodigious, if not unparalleled; but it was under a Southern leader that she achieved her independence, and under a long line of Southern Presidents and Southern Statesmen that she rose to greatness and prosperity. If she wants to make a fair experiment of the capabilities of Northern and Southern races, let her withdraw her armies, acknowledge our independence, and see what the result will be at the end of the century. Even in our tributary condition under the old Government, we produ

r than the days of Peter the Great, and he had to visit lands where the sun shone to procure the exotic and transplant it to his bleak domains. Germany, like Russia, is indebted to her conquest by the Sarmatians — a comparatively southern people — for a civilization which is not indigenous. The sunny land of France, inhabited by a people of Roman descent, and England, whose controlling element of society is of Norman origin, are the masters of the world. Who was Raphael ? Who Canova ? Who Dante ? Who Columbus ? Who Napoleon ? Italy, even in her old age, has given to the world a constellation of genius and energy, made up of stars of the first magnitude, which will shine on till the firmament above is rolled up like a scroll. The traveler who now visits Europe to behold the wonders of science, energy and art, does not go to Russia, Sweden Denmark or Norway. He finds there a very gluttonous and animal people, but not superior knowledge and refinement. The Northern States of t

the refinement, the civilization of sunny Greece ? What of Rome, the mightiest power that ever dominated the earth, whose soldiers were capable of doing more, of daring more, of suffering more, than the soldiers of any land, before or since; who chained Northern barbarians at their chariot wheels, and whose conquests compacted and integrated that magnificent empire till it was round and respondent as the sun that warmed into life its victorious eagles ? Was Julius Cæsar a Northern man ? Was Hannibal, that Carthaginian hero, who, in the opinion of some of the best modern soldiers, was the greatest military genius the world has ever produced, begotten of an iceberg ? Where was the Gothic genius when these Titanic Children of the Sun made the earth tremble beneath their ponderous footsteps ? If we come down to a still later period, we find another memorable refutation of the stereotyped Northern absurdity, that warm climates beget effeminacy and weakness. What becomes, under this th

l regions of the Old World there is abundant monumental and architectural evidence that, before Greece and Rome existed, those regions were always inhabited by energetic and civilized races, while in the Northern latitudes there was only a dreary waste of ignorance and barbarism. It was under a glowing sun that the patriarchs, prophets and apostles of Divine Revelation were called to the great mission of reclaiming the human race from the ruins of the fall. It was under such a sun that Moses, Joshua, David and Solomon were matured to the most vigorous manhood and the loftiest wisdom. It was there that the Sun of Righteousness first arose, and blended its fructifying rays with that luminary, which is spoken of in Scripture as a type of the spiritual energy and life-giving power of the Son of God. Why has Northern Asia been always barbarous, and Southern Asia been always civilized ? Why, if the Northern theory be true, was Egypt the most civilized and powerful of nations, t
