aiding THEIRS to ''establish order" The moderate
repu Jiicans have always been the Of France.
aud TO their tmbecility cowardice and selfseeking
may be attributed moro than to all else the bloody
struggles and the miaeries which for eighty years
nave fallen upon their country. The radicals OF
france know their monarchical Zoe to have but one
ereed-"For u.s. all rights. all privileges; for the
people, no rights. no privileges" And when brave
men have hewn out the only possible path to lib
erty with the sword these "noderates" (wh0 al
ways manage to save their skins) have stepped IN
to spoil their work, destroy the results and make
asses OF themselves for their enemies to ride. y
The monarchists have now q clear path and an
open field. No sentiment OF honor or patriotism
has prevented them making their country
ptiabe political spectacle before the world. and no
pulse OF shame will deter them from enactng to
Its Infamous de',ouensesH the monstr0us and bloody
farce began under the Republic at BOrdcaux-a
Republic gagged, disarmed, bound, and presenting
the humtliating spectacle OF q handful OF broken
down and worn-out factions setting the will OF the
people at defiance.
This has resulted from the "great services" OF
Theirs, aided by the stupidity OF the 'mOderates,"
and intelligent and impartial history will give
them credit for their work. Respectfully yours,

Crown the green grave
OF each slumbering brave
With chaDle IL of sDleudor.

On the wings OF the telegraph comes to rs the
announcement that In every part OF the Union.
from Maine to the Rio Grande from the Atlantic
TO the Pacific this day Is to be devoted to kee6ng
green the memory OF those who during the four
bloody years Of our civil war sacrificed their lives
upon the altar of their country.
There ia a peculiar fitness in making this legal
holiday In this age OF material progress. when
every tradition OF the past every debt OF gratitude
we owe those who preceded us-and the result Of
whose lab0rs we now enjoy are likely to be swal-
lowed up in the thirst for accumulation and the
race OF advancement II Is meet and proper that
one day In the year should be set aside for quiet,
serious contemplation Of the lesson which that 90
disastrous, war teaches us, and, 10 connection
Herewith to honor those who In the full nush OF
life and eagerness OF hope, fell dead ON
theI field OF battle that we might continue
to enjoy the present and labor for the future
Those are the true immortals who. by
their efforts and self-sacrlfces benefit the human
race. Though their names be forgotten. through
their influence they live. and In the growth OF every
city, in the whirr OF every spindle and the culture
OF every field, which represent the progress OIL our
age and country, they live on who died for u.s. and
will do so forever. 10 them we owe great debt
this one day to linger beside their graves, bedeck
them with garlands and show to ourselves and the
world that there lives within US something OF that
divine principle which recognizes and appreciates
the efforts Of the great t0iers in the vineyard OF
humanity.
On fame's eternal camping ground
Their silent tents arc spread.
While glory guards with solemn round
