The Unfinished Work.

In times like these, when Thousands
of dollars are spent to perpetuate in en-
during bronze the memories of th,
heroes and martyrs of the late wicked
rebellion, it is not amiss to recall the
words of the greatest of all these heroes
when on the 10Th of November, 1868
the Soldiers Cemetery at Gettysburg
was solemnly dedicated.
Said President Lincoln, after a few
words of introduction:
SIN larger sense we cannot dedi.
cate, we cannot cOnsecrate this ground.
The brave men, living and dead, who
fought here, have hallowed it far be-
yond anything that we can do. The
world will little regard what we say
here, but it will never forget what they
did here.
''It is for us, the living, rather to ded-
icate ourselves to the unfinished work
which they who fought here have thus
far so nObly advanced to consecrate
ourselves to the great task remaining,
and to gather from the graves of these
honored dead, increased devotion to
that cause for which they gave their
lives.
"Here let US resolve that they shall
not have died in vain; that this nation
shall under God have a new birth of
freedom; and that government of the
people, by the people and for the peo-
pie, shall not perish forever from the
earth !"
How have we kept this resolve-in
the light of subsequent events, when
the speaker himself was added to the
roll OF honored dead, his work vet un-
sacred pledge that he also
shall not have died In vain? Can we
lssert the new birth of Freedom, wher

liberty of speech, of the press, and of
the ballot in large section of the coun-
try lie crushed by the same hands that
sought to destroy the Union then ?
Dare we boast that government of, by
and for the people is perpetuated, with
terrors not less than those of the In
QUESTION hanging over him who refuses
to act with the party of oppression and
miSrule?
Have not the heroes of Gettysburg
died in vain, and with them Lincoln
aud Mcpherson, and the thousands OF
Union Soldiers whose precious blood
has enriched the soil of countless battle
fields, if the same foe, more gaunt and
hungry and fierce, and bis unscrupulous
allies, shall through our Indifference ac-
quire through the ballot what they
failed to gain by the sword?
All! 1.-The world will never forget
what they did," The world has never
forgotten its heroes. They survive not
only in the pages of history, but in
myth and legend, long after monu-
ments have cruDbled, and history her
self finds the story of their exploits a
hopeless riddle. They are the names
the world will not let die.
But what will be the Judgment of the
world and of history upon us if, under
this solemn pledge to dedicate ourselves
to the unfinished work of our own he.
roes, we prove false to our self-impOsed
trust, and commit not the work only
but the monuments we have so tender.
ly cOnsecrated, and the memories we
have so saeredly cherished, to the keep
ing of their bitterest foes?
Are we ready for the verdict 20. s.
