to advocate the payment of the Southern
claims-but not till after election. 1t already
asserts, in all the emphasis of Italic letters,

The other day Colonel Bereman addressed
Greenback meeting in Henry County. On the
same day and in the same locality there was
German camp meeting. A citizen who takes
considerable interest in Greenback theories,
and has attended good many meetings, set
out to hear Colonel Bereman. The speaking
had Just begun when he reached the grounds,
and for an hour and half he listened patient
ly and with great effort at intelligent compre-
hension. When he was coming away he met
friend who asked him where he had been.
He pointed to the grove, and said he had been
listening to the speaking. "How did you lise
it?" asked his friend, curiously. "Oh.h, $3.50"
replied the citizen; "there was lots in IL that L
couldn't make head or tail of, and it seemed all
mixed up like, but it was about like all the
Greenback speeches L have heard. Green

ment. "Greenback the DEVIL That was q

came away buried in deep thought, and won-

mind when he could not speak or understand

autumn leaves which strew the brooks
of "Nalambrosa." Apologies for
what? Why, for loving our country,
for hating treason, for overpowering
rebels, and believing that they did
wrong in fighting to destroy this gov
eminent? What soldier is there to-
day in the presence of the names of
their dead comrades that is ready to
apologize? l hope not one.
Do l speak warmly on this question,
fellow-citizens? Certainly no more
warmly than the provocation justifies,
and fear not half so warmly as the
offense against our martyred dead de.
mands. Deny it who will, l say that
the issues of 1882 and the issues of1S6l
are not dead, and that the ground hog
will again appear whenever his shad.
ow cannot be seen. l ask every man
who hears me to-day to consider these
questions seriously. l ask all who
stood by the side of these dead before
the iron hail from the batteries o.
treason, to stand with us now in the
declaration that the martyred dead
of the Union hare not died in cain.
