Excerpt from Reflections on the Goodness of God to a Nation Three Score and Ten Years Old: A Sermon Preached in the Fourth Presbyterian Church, Albany, on Thanksgiving Day, November 24, 1853

Canaan, was not deemed by them a blessing; yet, considering all the circumstances, it was verv wonderful; and the overthrow of Jeru salem and the consequent dispersion of the J ews - a retributive and not a corrective j udg ment - was far from being regarded by its unhappy victims as a blessing; yet all who have read Josephus, will pronounce it wonder ful in no ordinary degree; wonderful in fact, and wonderful as a fulfillment of prophecy. In fine, in view of these and other judgments, as well as blessings properly so called, the Psalmist might say justly, Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward.
