The Late Colonel Baldwin


The papers generally, in noticing the dcatl
! Of the late Col, MI BALDWIN, pay glowing
and eulnni.;ic Tributes to his memory. Tie
| Petersburg .Appral, in The course of what il
/ ;,.S Ia say OF the character 6 the deceased
speaks tins:
| Without invoking the charity which be
| lon"- to the mcilory OF the dead; without
allowing ourselves 10 be moved too deeply
! hy that tenderness excited by his recent pas
| sage from life to heaven, we may say truly
| of John b. Baldwin, that his heart was IL
| pt!rc and golden. his affections IL gentle ano
| faithful, rs in ri, the qualities exercised III
| the ordinary relations OF man ana nmt
| he was brave, determined, and almost
stcln-a man OF the antique heroic pattern
| We hcicvc no Virginian had a warmer at
| trclion for his mother State, and no man in
| field or in forum ever gave her more ctiNal'
rols or valuable Scrvice.H
Very true. His fidelity, his ability, and
his courage commanded the public conf
dcncr. and whatever might be mems
opinions of his politics, or whatever their
feelings towards him personally, when an
cxisercy came all looked to him as Il man
to be trusted. He had the trait; of true
hcroism in high degree. He was not
only brave and wise in council, but
his courage was intrepid, and he feared not
to lead where he advised others to go. His
confidence in the right was reflected in his
firm and undauntcd bearing. His voice as
sured his auditors aId his manly conduct
inspired them. He was not an ornate ora
tor; but he WAS strong in ideas and in
words: he did moi waste words; they
all meant something; all were wanted
where he put them. His sentences were
all the time reinforcing their predecessors
and swelling the volume of his argument,
which eliminated in overwhelming force.
His speeches often reminded Us Of WEB
sTER's for their simple force and their gran-
tive sOlidity.
