With no high motives in engagiog in

vavored tbe perpetuity of tbe Union
were in the right and those who stood
for disuoicn, fighting liks brave men ss
they were, were in the wrong, yet in
their defeat, reaping a larger bsritage
than had they been successful. The

not fall far short of five millioos. Tbe

In oar relation hh citizen of a unit
ed country there can tie no quarrel
between the old soldier of the Union
hihI the Mouth. That the soldiers of
the South fought invf ly sod well
was shown on many a b tttefleld. As
Americans they displayed the same
gallant bearing and courage the
Union soldiers.snd should these qosl.
ltios bo lakon as a criterion of judg
ment, they sro as much entitled to
the regard and respect of our com
mon country as the Union defenders.
But with the eld soldiers of the Union
wheu memory recalls the time, there
is a reeling when the missiles of
deah were atlklug their comrades
down. snd when mlnnie balls like
A pi II showers were strewing the field
with (Jtmd and wounded comrades,
that gallantry on the psr( of tbe foe
should not efface all other considers,
lions. This sentiment msy and does
And sn echo in the breasts of some,
but ss a practical principle, applied
in a free government, It may prove
the rock upon which our ship of state
may wreck. The cause tbat produc
ed the gallantry ehould never be loet
sight of. The American soldier has
fought on ntsny a fit Id since the for
mation of the government.
It noodje in nrtlftYia! rentiment to
claim bravery In an unjust cause In
order to uphold national honor. It ia
a device to elevate the ouo at the ox
pensense and degrsdstlon of tbe other
to stela Union end whiten disunion.
Comrades with us there can be no
trace of bitterness with tbe soldiers
of the South. Brave men carry no

Is left with tbe people of a saved na

An old darkey fortaae teller, blind for
j ears, waa ia the city Saturday and for a few
day after. Thi old gentleman a lived in
tbe Northwest for years, having baee ia Al

blind darkey or blind anyone else, though
peculiar ia their ways, who try to mate their
own living by selling pencils said tell ng for
tunes, are entitled to better treatment than
being termed "dirty old bilks." People who
have their fortunes told are not bilked, for
they know whst thsy are paying for.
