" Errors '.Incidental ' and Relatlfe to Seetlonal Con -Daughters of the Confedeiaov, Con, federate Veterans, ladles and gen tlemen: Borne time ago 1 received a request rronr the New Bern Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy to serve as the orator on the occasion the exercises to be held this day over the Confederate dead. I hesitated for some time, notwithstanding the cordiality of the Invitation and the flattering terms In which the secretary conveyed it. I am a stranger to the men who followed Lee and Stonewall Jackson, and they are strangers 10 me. my military life was spent In the Wesl, in Cleburne's Division and hence I am necessarily 'without the Inspiration which comes from a recolWc, tlon of common daugers, common hard ships, and common triumphs. But I could not refuso to come. Every man who followed the Stars and Bars In the long sail struggle for the political and civil liberty which was wmng from George III by our ancestors, was my brother, andxvery woman whose prayers went up day and night for the 'success of the Confederate cause, who denied herself and her babes the comforts life In order to supply the wants of the ragged and hungry battalions of the Confederacy, was my sister. If any were traitors, I was s trsltor If any were patriots, I wss a patriot. history shall honor the 600,000 men who resolutely withstood for four long years the flury onslaughts of 2,8CV0A1 Invaders it will honor me. If history shall shed s tear over the subj ugation of o'ir South land by armies containing 030,017 for eigners and negroes 80,000 more than the entire Southern force, It will shed a tear over me. What duty, then, is more imperative, what obligation more sacred, than that I should join you In honoring tho me,n ory of those who lie in these grsvet, and raise my voice in justification of Hie cause for which they gavo up tholr lives. Why is this justlusallon necessary f Who needs to know the reasons for the oonduct fo the Booth In 1860-1 f Tha civilised world need to know thorn, In cluding almost the entire population of the Southern States. Thlrty-8va years the natural teachers nf these oeunla hava been silent- thirty-five years tbssa pee pis htve had Northern school histories Northera newspapers, and North mtgaxlnee instilling Into thorn false views of tha oaosea and lbs conduct of the war.

ThHr c but k w no bounds When the British miDlstry shut up luc port of Boston and cut off the food supplies of the inhabi tants, the men and women of ihe Old South sent to them cargo after cargo of provisions and money. The old Booth's love of freedom and her devotion to the true principles of civil liberty caused the wall of Massachusetts after the battlo of Lexington to come to h-jr ears as a bugle blast summoning her to the de fense of her own rights; and she sent to that was SO more men out of every 1000 capable of bearing arms than the North did, whfle South Carolina, which has been "the special victim of the veneance of the North, sent 110 men out of every 1000 more than were sent by Massachu- chusetts, the colony which had preclpl- tatea tne coulllcl. Tho men and women of the old South bad a code of morals which permitted no man to be untrue to pledges without Incurring the penalty of social ostracism, snd'durlng the relen of this rigorous public Bentiment, money was loaned to neighbors for Bbort teims as Mr. Brnton declares, and as mauy of you pan remember, without note, Inter est, witness, or security. Men were compelled to be honest; and no Irrlng ever sneereo at the typical Southerne oy caning him "the wise man of the East, ' and no Hallburton over character Ized him as a Samuel Slick.

The old South held It to be an unmitigated oQense to pry Into or undertake to regu late me atlalrs of other people. Hence It resented with unuttorable scorn the pretention that certain Unatlcs in the North had hern autuoitzed to dictate manners and morals to I he South.
