TO THE MEMORY OF STONE
WALL JACKSON.
At the Unveiling of the jackson
Statue, jefferson Davis Eulo-
giZeS the Dead Soldier.

New ORLEANS, La, May 11.-At
the conclusion of the ceremonies at
tending the dedication of the tomb
Of the Association Of the Army OF
Northern Virginia, and the unvelllng
of the statue of Stonewall Jackson,
Yesterday, in Saint Mattaire Gem
etery. Jefferson Davis, after compi-
menting General Lees address and
congratulating the association on the
completion of their tomb and monu-
ment, referring to General Jackson,
said 'From the academic shades of
a military institute he went forth to
battle for the cause of State rights,
self government and Constitutional
liberty. Nobody expected that this
quiet professor would have an
opportunity to show the great quail
lies he possessed and become the
great hero of our war. To-day he
stands, in the opinion of every one,
so far as [ know, the mightiest
chieftain of the Confederate cause.
This silent professor constantly rose,
like meteor, over the battle field
Of the Confederacy; only like
a meteor in its brightness,
for his light was as steady as the
orb of day; it shone to the very
close, increasing in brilliancy, and in
the trust which the people reposed
upon it. Such was Jacksons. He
lived for his country; never doubt
ing the justice of his cause. Be-
lieving it was righteous and trusting
in it, he died as he would live toe
day, feeling that the Confederacy
ought to have succeeded, because it
was founded on truth and j lstice.
He gave his life for the whole coun-
try, and the country gave it's hearts
to jackson. You, the men whom he
leaned on in the hour of danger, in
honoring him also honor your
selves"
