Our Confederate Flag.
There was a pthetio seen la the
big tent at the close of one of the
meetings. It illustrated a use to
which an old Confederate battle flag
may be p'.t without adverse criticism
from any source. Even the super
loyal Eliot F. Shepbard could find no
objection to this set ne. There had
been speaking. The courage of the
Southerner had been extolled in one
breath, and bis devotion to the Union
of today had been declared in anoth
er. Then Geu. George W.
Gordon came forward. He carefully
unfolded the wrappiugs of while pa
per., and held with both hands the
remnants of a Confederate battle flag.
The shreds, the holes, and the stains
were eloquent. At the sight of them
the veterans winked their eyes ui d
breathed hard. General Gordon kept
silent for a niita:e and- then said:
"It is dead. It will do no harm. It
was the battle flag oi the Eleventh
Tennefsee, an ! it had this appear
ance after passing through the bat
tles of Chkkaniauga, Mission Ridge,
Resaca, Kene?aw, Atlanta, Jones
boro, and other battles Four sol
diers fell with it in their hands at the
battle of Alibsion Ridge, and a fifth
soldier carried it from the Held."
General Gordon stopped to swallow
a lump in his throat, and proceeded:
"The discoloration which you see
on the white of the flag is the blood
of gallant Ensign Lieutenant Drew,
who fell at Franklin, Tenn. He was
not a Tennesseean, but was from
Louisiana a brother of the well
known commander of the Louisiana
Tigers. Captain Clark, of the Elev
enth Tennessee, secured this flag at
Eeutonvillo. He knew the surren
der was at hand. He took the flag
from its staff, put it in Lis bosom and
brought it home, wearing it between
his outer and under shirts. He gave
it to me after I was released as a pris
oner of war. For twenty Ave years I
have kept the flag, and, God helping
me, I will keep it until this life's trou
bled dream is ended, and then I hope
it may be buried with me."
As the meeting broke up the veter
ans, in twos and threes and squads,
went up to the platform, looked at
the relic as if it was some sacred thing,
and wept. This is no imagined story.
Great tears rolled down ,the tanned
and wrinkled cheeks, and were mop
ped by 6hirt sleeves. W. B. Stevens

Death of Gen. Fremont.
Norfolk Ledger, 14th.
Gen John C. Fremont, who died in
New fork yesterday of peritonitis,
had an eventful career. The son of a
French immigrant, he was born in
Savannah, Ga., in 1813, and received
a collegiate education. Appointed
to a lieutenancy in the United States
corps of engineer-, he penetrated the
Rocky Mountains at two points, and
won the title of "the pathfinder." He
also defined much of the geography
between the Rocky Mountains
and the Pacific coast, and bore
a conspicuous part in the con
quest of Upper California. He repre
sented California in the United States
Senate frcm 1819 to 1851. The first
candidate for the Republican party,
he was defeated for President in 1856
by Jas. Buchanan. Gen. Fremont
served as a ma jor general in the Union
army during the late civil war, and
at the present session of Congress
was placed on the retired list, with
the rank of major general.
"We have a reservation for them,"
replied the New Yorker.
"Indeed?"
"Yes a mental reservation."
"Where do you put all the monu
ments you erect to : ublic men?" asked
a visitor from Chicago of a New York
resident.
