Speech Of Gen. Sickles at Saratoga.
The following is the speech made by
Gen. SIoKLEs at Saratoga, in response to
serenade:
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: 1t is embar.
RAISING to be the sole recipient of honors
which others should share. I am quite
aware that | am mainly indebted for this
graceful compliment to your just admira-
tion tor the brilliant conduct of the Third
Army Corps at Charlottesville and Get
tysburg. So far, however, as 1 am per-
mitted to receive your visit as an express
sion of personal regard, thank you hearti.
ly for it.
A day in Saratoga reminds US of any
thing but war-the sacrifices of the North
great as they have been, have not, appa-
rently, disturbed our pleasures nor dimin-
ished our resources. One more campaign
in which the army and navy shall feel
that their valor and devotion are appreci-
ated by the natiOn-and this sad war shall
then end in the re-establishmert of the
National Government over all the possess
sions OF the United States.
1t is not too much to say that we have
already accomplished more than was
deemed possible by warlike nations and
high military authority in Europe; and
when the declining energies of the rebel
lion relinQush the sword. now held with
feeble grasp, this country will take it's
place in the foremost rank of nations; we
will enter upon career of grandeur and
renown which no imagination has foresecn
and no human agency can arrest
Among those present am gratifed to
recognize the familiar and cherished faces
of old friends---to these it will not be
without interest to know that l shall be in
command of my corps when the next
battle is fought.
1t is reserved for the Army of the Po-
tomac to make the final and decisive cam
paign against the last and greatest of the
armies of the rebellion. l have had the
honor to belong to the Army of the Poto-
mac during my brief military service
with it, anG especially with the third army
corps, my destiny is cast; proud OF my
association with so many heroes, their for
tunes will ever be mine-and nothing can
be dearer to me than their honor and
fame and happiness.
