Gen. w. T. Sherman's Decoration day
speech -"For one, hope and pray that
our old antagonists of the South will
have learned wisdom, and by their acts
prove to the world the sincerity Of their
patriotic declarations. Some Of them
however, contend that because their in
dividuals motives were pure and honor
able they are entitled to the same mea-
sure Of honor and glory rs those who
had the right on their side, aud who by
war and violence, had 70 enforce submis-

"Therc are such things as abstract
right and abstract wrong, and when his
tory 10 written human actions must take
their place in one or the other category.
We claim that in the great civil war We
of the national Union army were right,
and our adversaries wrong. And no
special pleading, or excuses, no personal
motives, however pure and specious, can
change this, the verdict Of the war
! II would not tor the world revive the
angry passions of that period Of time,
nor do question the personal motives OF
our antagonists; but do and ever will
contest the proposition that we should
tear from the history OF our country the
pages which record the great events from
1861 to 1865, for they should stand there
forever as warning to those who come
after us-who, from passion, sclf:interest,
or any human cause or pretext whatever
may undertake to destroy this government
by violence-a government in which the
living are only the trustees for the hum
dreds of millions Of human beings who
are so fast pressing us old men off til Z

mo! the deeds of our dead heroes are
recorded in the great book Of Time, and
marble and brass will continue to record

the language Of our great leader. Gen.

deeds done in 1865, but will treasure
up their memory, and on every suitable
occasion, as long as life lasts, will pre-
sent them anew to the youth of this coun
try as noble examples Of heroism and

AsFcw Facts About Sslf.Bind ers.
WHAT A MAN NEAR HONE, WHO HAS TRIED
THE WOODS AND McCoRM1cK's .
20 SAYS ABOUT THEM.
Just before harvest, 1875, I bought q
harvester under contract that was to
have binder for it that would do as good
work as any in the market for the harvest
of 1877. -.
About the beginning Of harvest, 1877,
I went to town and got my binder and at
the same time requested your agents,
Meagert &, Bush, to let me try one of
Woods Self Binders, so that I could be
able to Judge of the relative merits Of
each machine. We tried both machines
in barley, cutting 20 acres. Both binders
worked we'll, and ut that time, could see
no reason why I should not keep the
cCormick Binder, and 50 kept it and
also bought one of the Woods, but 1 then
preferred the McC ormick's. i have used
both binders through harvest. and I now
like the Woods best for the following
reasons: The Woods runs right along
without any trouble, and does not waste
as much grain as the McCormick. The
Mccormick has troubled US . good deal,
and would not be bothered with 1t if !
could get rid Of it, ] would advise farmers
to buy the Moods and save trouble. i. -,
