Uneenerons Foemen.

In oher parts of our paper will be found &C
counts Of tho refusal of Gen. Griffin and Sheridan
to allow public honors to be paid to the remains
Of Gen, Albert Sidney John,ton. The men must
be far beyond the sense of magnaninity orplty or
shame, who would Indignantly grudgs the salute
of orir anee or the marble column in memorial
of SO gallant soldier and noble patriot as Gen.
Abort Sidney Johnston whose memory nature
demanGs should, like perennial flowers, bloom
forsvernore in the summer of the Southern heart
Horrid and rufisnly is the nature that would deny
to kindred and friendly Affection the compassion
ate mo1ruful aad tender Office of guarding forever
with monumental preservation the recollection Of
its fallen brave; and of ever recurring to their
solemn .cpulchres, there to bcdew their ascred
s,he, With tributary tours.
One thing is certain for which God bs praised
That tn. martyr Albert Sidney Johnston il gone
where the 0slumnies Of bsso minds, tho wrongs
of lirin, towards, the missiles Of hostile arms,
the tumalts Of stern battle, and tho wounds OF
unconsre ersb!e death, shall reach him never moro.
