DAUGHTERS CONFEDERACY.
To Build a Monument to Jefferson Davis:
Goldsboro'a Cbapter Enlistsd in tbe
Work.
Daily Argus, Saturday May 19,
As the years roll on, and "the
thoughts of men are widened,"
the issues championed by the
Southern Statesmen, and leading
up to the war of the Southern
Confederacy, are coming to be
recognized throughout the nation,
under the light of widening ex
perience, as the perfection of wis
dom and astute statesmanship, and
the men who went through tbe
fiery ordeal of war and down to
death in their defense, for love of
principle and right, are forever
enshrined in the Temple of Fame
as the most glorious heroes the
world has ever known; for success
is not essentially the reward of
heroism, and truth may some
times be crushed to earth, but, in
the eternal years of God, Truth
will prevail and the heroes who
gave their lives for her dtftnse
will receive honor, thoagh centu
ries roll between.
The women of the South, pure
of heart and consecrated of life,
pulsing with patriotism and with
the courage of their heaven-born
convictions, have banded them
selves together under an organi
zation known as "Daughters of
tne Confederacy," whose purpose
is to preserve the truth of the
history of the Southern Confed
eracy and transmit it secure to
the rising generation and on
through coming generations
that the principles of the Lost
Cause may ever prevail in South
ern hearts and that its heroes
may never be disparaged in the
land consecrated by their blood.
Among other undertakings, it
is the purpose of the Daughters
of the Contederasy to erect a
monument to Jefferson Davis,
and make it of such imposing
character and enduring nature
as to perpetuate through all the
coming time the Southern peo
ple's faith in him and love for
him. And let the legends inscrib
ed thereon teach the lesson of
his life, and tell to all peoples
his gallantry of spirit, his hero
ism of soul, the righteousness of
the cause he loved with his peo
ple so well, and his pathetic af
tertime and passing hence. Let
them tell how Fame stopped
him at the gates of sunset and,
as he passed out beyond earth's
sight, placed upon his brave,
battle-bronzed brow the most
glorious crown ever won by
man, save that of Immortality
from God Himself eternal in the
Heavens the distinction of be
ing made the vicarious sufferer
for the people and the principles
he loved. Without citizenship
disfranchised by federal edict
born of partisan passionate hate
and resentment, he measured the
years of his vicariate without a
murmur, and went, at length, to
his long home with abiding faith
. in God and looking to the resur
rectum oi rigui judgment in tne
hearts of men for hs justifica
tion. The good women of Goldsboro
God bless them! have organ
ized here a chapter of the
"Daughters of the Confederacy,"
and it is their purpose at an early
day to give some knd of an en
tertainment to contribute to the
monument fund, and to this end
the chapter will have a meeting
next Monday afternoon, at 5:30
o'clock, in the Museum of the
Goldsboro Rifles, and it is urged
and hoped that every woman be
longing to the chapter will be in
prompt attendance.
Con d Not Spell.
Chicago News.
Great men are usually poor
spellers. The man who can spell
perfectly is at sea when he tries
to Jefiae words and the man
with a great flow of language
aud the power to get the- best
out of words is apt to be careless
about orthography. He has no
time for trifles. It is the same as
remembering a date and not be
ing able to recollect what hap-:
pened on it. English spslling is
arbitrary and accuracy in it is
simply a chance a gift such as
lightning calculation.
Few of the great writers have
been good spellers. They have
not been concerned themselves
with words except to use them
as they would tools. The only
scraps of writing of Shake
speare's in existence are two
signatures, and these are spelled
differently. Scott, Byron, Ten
nyson and Dickens were wretch
ed spellers.
It is said Browning was often
in doubt as to the spelling of a
word and had to write it down in
order to see if it looked right be
fore he was sure. Mmy ordinary
people are addicted to this little
trick, and it is needless to say
that the eye, instead of memory
is responsible for our knowledge
of the correct spelling of many
puzz'ing words in our complex
language.
