MEMORIAL DAY.
The Roll of the Country's Fa
mous Dead.
A SILENT CAMPIMi GROIXG.
The Memorial Deeds of the Nineteenth
Centorj How so Nearly at
Ita End.
On the twenty-first Decoration
Day of history the roll of the
famous dead includes Thomas,
Garfield, Hancock, Grant, Logan,
and Sheridan. But one of the
great leaders, Sherman, survives,
and, however sadly his thoughts
ma' go back over the fields that
trembled with tne tread of march
ing millions, the glorv and pride
of peace accomplished must thrill
his heart, coming from every
hamlet and city, rnorth and houth,
East and West, where blue and
gray cross hands over t tie last
battle-field ths grave.
The occasion of a great national
centennial has prepared the public
to commemorate this year's Decor
ation Day in a more marked and
intelligent manner man ever be-
fore. The two occasions are ri'el
with historic. and pathetic reminis
cence, and the Jinn ot April ana
the SUih ot May, 188!), will be long
remembered days in the memory
of those who mav live to see the
last ot" the veterans of the great
war tollow then leaders to the
si'ent camping-ground. The spirit
and genius of the commemoration
that Logan set apart m u nation!
annual event becomes more vivid
and sentient to arouse and thrill,
as the slower step, the whiter head,
the rarer presence of those who
1 r -1 1 i . l xi . . . ii....
.i . "-n u i
garlands of tear-jeweled flowers
Decoration day has become a
national yearly pilgrimage, not one
of strife or fanaticism, but of love
and peace, while at its end stands
the immortal shrine of liberty.
Every succeeding Decoration day
has evidenced the fact that the sur
vivors of the war have not consid
ered their work at an end, wit-i the
termination of hostilities. The'
were enlisted for life, and action
and progress hive marked their
purposes, whenever a worthy com
panion in arms was in sickness or
distress, and sweet charity has
shone forth as a lustrous beacon-
light of beneficence. Those angels
of mercy, too, the ladies of the
Relief Corps, who tenderly bound
up the wounds of a bleeding brave
without caring for the color of his
jacket,because he was"somebody's
son, are to-day teaching lessons
of beauty and love that ennoble
the rising generation, who perpetu
ate the valor of their predecessors
as sons ! veterans.
The nineteenth century, so
nearly at its end, will go into his
tory memorable for great deeds of
war and peace alike with the
battle of Waterloo and that of Get
tysburg chronicled in the same
volume with the development of
electricity and steam ; for thes are
the military and civil revolutions
which have changed the world.
The plowshare nows fills the ruts
of cannon wheels, and fields f
carnage have become fields of har
vest. The tendency of the custom
of Decoration day is wholly in the
line of peace and national brother
hood. The iieople of the country
are fraternized.
The originator of the ceremony of
Decoration day was a Confederate,
it is said, and this fact should pro
mote national unity and good-teel-ing,
in the yearly pilgrimage of the
blue and "grav to the shrine of
those who vee encc deadly ene
mies. Peace nuth its victories no less
renowned than a war," and the
thrre million colonists of the revo
lution, merged into the sixty millions
ot to-day, see new stars auueu to
the glorious banner that waves
under the magnolia and the rugged
pine alike. While Russia expends
$150,000,000 annually o war and
$10,000,000 on education. America,
with nearly an equal population,
devotes $45,000,000 to the support
of the military and $00,000,000 to
instruct the ignorant. Its 54,000
ante-war churches have grown to
72,000, its $3,000,000,000 war debt
shrunk to nearly one-half, and the
mighty pathway of steel that scales
the Rockies and intersects South,
North and East.tells of the progress
that has replace i the bullet with
the ballot, and made of friend and
foe a vast army of peace, with
hatred and bloodshed unknown
merged under the lilies, the roses,
the magnolias, the tears, the hopes,
the tender holiness of a great
national Decoration Day.
