Southern Democra tic Sentiment.

Oh. how fit how passing fit it
vas that the Radical party should
ciye fnal hiss at our Confederate
President as its dying carcass was
borne from the senate chamber of
the States Union!
Hating all that is good and pure,
and grand and true, it was peculiar
" proper that 1t should hate Jeffer-
son Davis VITA deathless hate
Its history was one long lie and
crime
1t flung our country into war.
1t murdered 800, 700 galiantSouth-
rons like the common cut-throat
that IL was.
1t plnndered our pockets and cof-
fers, like the common thief that it
was 1t sent It's Jail birds to lord it
over US, and imprisoned the purest
patriots of the North, like the com
mon tyrant that it was.
Finally, with bloody hands and
pockets bulging with stolen money,
it fell before the wratli of an indig-
uant and outraged peoplehood.
But its malignant spirit was strong
in death, and while the rattle was
sounding in its Shiny throat it man
aged to utter farewell hiss at our
..lustrious chieftain.
Let this fact be forgetless.
1t contributes one more shiaing
leaf to the splendid laurel crown of
glory that circles the brow of our
grand old Confederate president.
1t intepsifes the immortal love
and honor of our second Washing-
ton.
We have captured the Capitol, snd
the name of Jefferson Davis will
hereafter be spoken with reverence
in its historic halls, while his picture
will yet grace and his memory will
yet glorify the place forever.

No Decoration I'm Gardiner.

The City Government, in our estimation
did very mean thin. at their last meeting
in tahling an appropriation Of $50 to assist the
Grand Army bows for Decoration Day eXcr-
Ci>es. The organization, to say nothing of
its claims to patriotism. by its different
sources and arrangements for charities, has
probably saved the city from a cost of more
than 500 during the past winter ~ a result
there probably will be no public demonstration
! in this city by the Grand Army, but they i'll
decorate the graves of their dead comrades
| in private manner. AT their own expense, in
the morning, and go To Augusta in the after
noon to join with procession where there
l. magnanmus spirit enough to vote their or
ganzation some assistance. At special
meeting of the Grand Army Post held Friday
evening. the following resolutions were pass
| ed
Whereas. At the last meeting of our City
Government, an order appropriating the sum
of fifty dollars for the expenses of decoration
day was laid on the table. and
Whereas, We have no funds to pay the cX-
penses of public decoration. therefore
| ResOtred, That we instruct our committee
to reconsider all arrangements of a public
character and that we make no public pa
rade more than to move from our hall To the
graves of our deceased comrades. and deco
rate them in such manner as will show to
the community that AT leastcan remember
the names and record of those men who gave
their lives that others could enjoy the bless
