BEFORE THE yX-COEERAyKS AT THE r COTJBT HOUSE, OX JjfONDAY, OCT. 7TH. Wr. President of Confederate Veteran Association, . Ladle aud Geutletnuu : There are times in our Jives, when we hould step aside oat of the current of bufy daily life. Like the lioiea taken for the repair of machinery, this complicated human machine must take Home time to repair its waste iu action, most make its 5laus for the future, and learu its lessons roin the past. If this is not done, lif,o ia bat a hard surface life, and tne'u fecqQe narrow, scliiah and forgetful of teir noblest instiucts.

This deep reverence fox tfraf glorious pause for those who died fof jt in vaiu, and those who not leg nobly passed through the jaws of death to take up the cross of the vanquished, is one of thorn unspeakable feelings that live at home iu the heart the Jips Cannot utter them words upon words came forth without the precious burden, put the great heart of the world has felt the story and thrills in nympathy to-diy. Can I put these feelings iuto words? Oh no. ."Jnst like toe wavelet that moans on the beach And vigoing inlc back to the ca.

Whether we wero right ot Frong, has nothing io do with the chief Jealous of the cause for the rising generation. That wc.r with its ouacs sod its coiiseqaen-' ces haspaswd into history, where the oold pure light of Impartial reason , will do it jitBtico some day in the future, when, the clouds of prejudice are left below. ' lh storm of p3io, which even, now are muttering in autjUn .departing .cadenoe iu some parts of this- re-united land will then have passed away; the bitter hatreds of some breasts which death alone can end will have been buried in anoient graves ,' the life-lqod poured out in plenteous sao riflc,e oa 6& ftides wiU have been dried up uke the f of a century ago; and a calmer and wiser generation will declare where was the troth, and who had the right among the actors fa that terrible tragedy. But oa whichever side the Judg ment of condemnation shall fall, history while pointing out errors will justify tne motives, and make for us the pure record pa the jU?og annals of time, that if the head was soinetygies' wrong, tne heart , was $.1 ways ht. Y,e are always working in the hands of an abpighty power for purposes we know not of and perhaps from the blood of those dead feeroes of the South will spring up some flower of liberty, to bless generations of men yet unborn in the grand progress of inaukied. But for us in this generation everything was settled by the sword that judge from which there is no appeal; and while bow ing in submission to the result, let ns learn its lessons. Loyalty .to the Union does not require us to be ashamed of ourselves or the noble army of marUrs who fqej iqt what they believed jthe rigfct. 1 know, IU. President, the? 9 mm 1 every community, who take np iuV Wr work like yours, who try with (Cold tips and Belgsh heart to tl) Jt with the surer that it i senseless and dead sentiment merely. 'ou know thej- These are the great warriors in time of peace, and in war the skulkers to the reir. These are the men traitors and deserters are made of. la peace they dispise the old gran's ragged woru-out elothes, and 'fg,61 the npbie hipart that beats beneath., tu Wh,Os bresence they are not worthy 6 atand These are the Jw-hfiwkern and hen-rrat roptcw of the war, the traders upon nter mrs necMisities and sufferings. Put don't mind them. They have their reward m the daily harvest of the peuntea tey worship, and the cou:empt of every honest patriot. ' . Pffhe great leaders of the Confederate Veterans, history will take care. They are pnroUeJ among the great names of the ages, and will shine out in liviug charao. ters acroHS the cnasru or aistant time. Ana as a back ground to this glorious picture will be spread in equal immortality the history of the cause they mder-the field upon which they moved. But they will have a still better hie than thl to live in their people's hearts. t When we think of the&a men and see that ejen they could not save us, whpn victory after victory turned to nothing in our hands, leaving us a glory whicn tnongu real was as unsubsUnhai as the sunlizht that falls upon that window to-day; When we think of the nobje young lives of the South heaped up inejpolting aacrinoe on the altar of their country all iu vain, we feel that in the ordinances that govern the world it was wrfueu, "inai it was oesi ror us to fail There is one person to whom we come now, without whom there would have becu no glory for Lee or Jackson. He is an much a p$rt of their triumph, as their own transcedent abilities, lie is as rfobje as either one of them. It is not his fault ml he only had one talent to their ten. He used it just as well, aye even better, for ' his part was to do and die and not know the reason why." To move like a pawn on a chessboard in the hands ot another man, to go down blindly into death in ways pointed out by another, without his reason to guide, or his own mind to approve, without the stemulus which every true man feels in carrying out bis ow n purposes, without the alluring of ambitiou to urge him on, Jhia was his part. VDuty nobly done for duty's sake alone." Qthing but pure manliness. Do yon knew him ? Is he a general r No. Ia he a colonel? No. A papain ? No. jfhr U he ? He (a Johnnie Keb, tfp pryate. uq you know mm nowr Aye do you not see him in the fami'iar faces before you, men who move in daily intercourse with us, beariug in the secret of their owu soul the heroism which was their country's pride aud protection, and privately without any boasting or complain inc. bearing in their bodies their wounds those seals of honor. Is it not hard that they are no better thought of thau oth,er men, and that to-day the hard and hoay world tt&s no need for them and will pass them by' as old fogies and coriosetieg, unless tpey can turn tneir nana, mat nang wnere ih the saber gashed, to some inqney making occupation. But at that time came Johnnie lieb,, in rei-poase to the call of the voice of his coun try and hi pocience flocking to that banner, which he swore would float over his country's freedom or his grave. There never was a higher call, or a nobler response than that made by the men of the South As was said by Oeu. Grant, ft mut haye in &d mora t ion of such unanimous devotion, fl'he South for its army has fobbed tfte cradle and aud the crave." The old men who had given the strength of their prime to other things, who had loft oenina aji fue liuputsiveneas ui yumu calm ludcreiaent and stern retard for priu. ciple, wjiich is the only thing that does not ny away with the numerous illusions oi life offered ud what of it was left to them. Afost of them are passed away and have een and received tlM-ir reward. And next the youth. There is no nobler me reE pons' oitne youtu oi mo wum, gee them wch their fresh yoing live, fell of great hQOeii and proqiises, every iuteu- tion almost a gOfgeoya reality, with the world and ita btmodjeqs aveuqes qf thought, fepliug aud actjou, spread out before them where to choose, aud every nrospect suf fuaed with ypuug life of amqition, like a glqriqus sunriso"; and all lid down in death or wjat is sparueless es a saorlfioe in a maimed aud broken life. It is sublime, and what makes it more so, is that they did not stop to think of it aud perhaps only think of jt to-day, an simply a Quty done.

V Do we. not thiufc. pf him with gratitude, which is almost reverence. . . There is one other person moving in calm aud beautiful patriotism among the bloody scenes of : that time, nobler even than Johnnie Beb, the private, and that is the woman of the Bputu. Man has the force and power, woman gives a motive and turns this force into proper Action, Like the philosophers stone that was to turn all baser metals to gold, her influence on man can alone touch . his : actions into tnwoblity. What is courage? What are all those resolutions that roll full of force and power whin man's breast, unless they, are the servants of truth of right of love of home ? And over this wonderful field of the earth, can yoa find any s$ch thing as love where there ia no woman, or a home without a woman. Aud it was the love of these Southern homes that made the meu what they were, . The noble women at home, how they suffered all sorts of privations, hardships and danger, and the horrible suspense of impending calamity tho overhanging shadow of the sword, Aud yet the brave. loving heart held fast to its fah, and not murmur but only words of cheer. ; ; And then those other devoted patriots or the South, those heroic womon who left Iheir homes for the hospital, wearing their own gen.de lives away in nursing the sick and grounded. To thea how many of your comrades owe the prepjois boon of life to-day ? Can you be greatful enongu to tnemr iney were ministering angels indeed and more than that, for would not an angel demre to have that sweet fountain of human teuder-nes- and sympathy that spring up in every true woman's twaast. Yes. Our women are the reason why our Southern land is the land of chivalry, and may Southeru men be always richly endowed with it, and prize it as their highest quality. And now, Mr. President, ought not our Confederate dead be remembered ? Ought not the State year by year gather her living children around the graves of her dead, and consecrate their memories to immortal gratitude ? She will remember them. She will speak rf them, all through the coming years, uo in whispers, as if they were re. bellious chttdrpn jho brought her to shame and dishonor, hut she will declare in tones of triumph her Uudyiug love and gratitude to her dead heroes who died that she might have a better life, and point to their graves as sou roes of ineperation for future sons. And for us individually, are there some of those graves, quiet resting places in the broad broom of this suuny Southern land, those little mounds, it may be, unknown and unmarked, softly wearing away under the sun and Uder the stars, that keep alive iu lis some noble impulse patriotism or devotion to duty, and make death too near to be feared Oall you thai death in vain? Ought not also the living to be remem. bered ? They are scaroelj less dear to the State. The time is getting short, iu which they can be made to feel thU, foe twenty five years have passed since the war. Many a brave spirit has goup to join its comradis aud without the pom fort of kuowing tat anything in recognition of its services would be done. The rauks aro thinuing year by year, and before many years vofl py, the fast hpro of thpm all will bo gather ed into the vast tjreaury of the past, which time has been filing theue six thousaud years. The record pf the war will soon bo sealed Let uh do good while we have time Many of them are too proud to receive any help but the gratitude of Uieir country. Let os pay that with an overuowiug neart. These men met disaster with resignation, and took up the dull routine of ousiuess without money, with broken fortunes, aud broken hearts and hopes. Let ns not ferget them. Let us remem. ber that beneath the common clothe beats a heart that Kings might proudly own, hut now crushed under the load of daily cares aud anxieties But there U another class of these same men, who have gpne down iuto the bitter depths of poverty. Oh ! who can tell the sorrows tnat cluster around that word ? These are the men we can help In what the mm of the worid calls, a sensible way. Let us provide a Soldiers Home for them. Let it be a free offering of our hearts in gratitude, whioh (hey can honorably receive as a Soldiers' dap a protection for him iu return for protection to us. Let no sugges tion of the poor house or shadow ot alms, giviug touch this gift to kill it with its biighting name. Tho way to do it is to co-operate with the irate Association. ' Mr. President, we hear of the New South. Whether that is the right name or not, a brighter day is opening on us. The South is blebgud by nature in climate, soil and other natural advantages, and capital, that great lever tBt tupves the financial world, is moving Southward. But above all she has the men men pf the same blood we have been speaking of to-day, and like their sires they will not down, but will Btaud (n the the foremost ranks. She is already felt n the councils of the Govern, ment and will take a leading place in the future as she did in the past before the war What the world calls tho shadow ot the apple tree at Appomattox, will, have lilted ffom the glorious prospect which the future promises. Qqr State must and will rise and qy men of the same blood that war so layishly saprinced in vaiu. . Mr. President, there is a presence amon? us to-dny to which we must do honor, It U a mysterious, wonderful presence pot of ordinary hie, nor yet of death . It is tqe presence ot what that banner stanq-t for the spirit of a dead nation. Is it not an awe inspiring Bight in all its. mining ? It was pnee ine emoiem i ine nopes ui inilliqup, . "(.race ten thousanq wildly madly swore it would forever wave." Our banner has trod as uiapy roads to glory, as any that ever floated in auy land, aud this tattered fragment (hat you see be fore yoa was among tte foremost and most glorious of all, itt (he bauds of its - heroic bearer.
