What Does Gen. Sherman Mean.

In addressing thestudents of Yale College,
at an impromptu gathering last Friday, Gen.
Sherman said:
"Look at the old flag as Christian OBJ
jject. Obey its dictates and follow its leaders.
AS you go out into life you will find OPP
portunities enough to stand up for it-you
may even have chance to fight for it.
tell you that before you pass from the stage
there acl be Jfghting an comparison aoith aoliich
mine aciU seem slight, and hace had enough"
We allude not to the idolatry for the old
flag" which Gen. S. enjoins, but where is that
" fighting" to come off-and what about q
Count the South out Progress.
"Count the South out" of what If the
country should be involved in foreign war,
the South, so-called, must do her part, or she
will break her oath to be true to the Con-
stitution and the laws.
No one kno1sn what Gen. Sherman means
But the signs are portentous. Wise and sa-
gacious men already fear that the war is not
over in this country. Those in the South.
so-called, who are doing all they can, whether
Intentionally or not, to cause another war,
did not fight in the last one, and they will
not fight in the next. We will submit to
any thing to avoid another civil war, but we
confess we look with alarm to the future
Our apprehensions are well-founded. We
hope we are mistaken, but fear we are not.

occupied by the members of the bar, the
body of the Hall by the ladies, and the main
lobbies and gallery by the gentlemen. Mr..

minutes in delivery.
