the South. While there was a constant firing of
the pckets during the Advance, on the March
to the Sea the army did not fire q round to Che
man, unless at chickens or turkeys or like adj
herents of the enemy Sherman in his Advance
strictly excluded all citizens from his camp and
even along his line of supplies, shipping actual
residents to the North by thousands; while on
the March TO the Sea his army was followed by
la great train of freedmen and women, and al
most every soldier had body servant. Ii was
" bacon and hard tacln on the Advance; they
lived on the fat of the land on the March.
lThe Advance was at the rate of a mile a
iday through mountain Businesses the whole
way; the March the soldiers went at
a swinging pace twenty miles day over plains
las level almost as our Northern praries. One
was campaign of daily fighting and nightly
funerals; the other a holiday of fun and frolic
by both night and day; and on the March the
only signs of war they saw were the destruc-
ton of bridges the flames of storehoases, and
the devastation of the railways,
Yet the frolic of the March lives in song and
story; the death-llke struggle of the Advance
is hardly told IN history; and its true history
will probably never be written, partly be-
cause it is difficult to write; the details are so
monotOnous, the incidents so few, and so
disconnected There is nothing inspiring to be
said in telling of a stealthy movement of mile
or two miles to the right or left, to force the
enemy to abandon his works, only to find him
the next day intrenched in new ones. For
these reasons the true history of this campaign
is never likely TO be written. There are many
points of grave interest connected with
these two campaigns which we should like
to see settled as definitely and clearly as Cen
eral Johnston's brief letter explains his we'll
defined policy of defence in the Atlanta cam

THE SPECIAL SESSION.

President AIthur's brief inaugural address
has been received by the country with general
satisfaction. Tive points are particularly noted
as acceptable his reference to the policy of his
predecessor, and his statement that no ade-
lnate necessity exists for extra session of
Congress. Tho President did not affirm that a
special session of the Senate might not be desir-
able, and his proclamation Of yesterday calling
that body together does not therefore Indicate
any change Of opinion. But it does not seem to
him THAT any Legislative changes arc needed
prior to the date for the regular meeting of
Congress.
The reference to the policy adopted by his
predecessor is sensible, graceful, and in har-
m0ny with public sentiment. We shall not
know just how President Arthur regards the
policy OF his predecessor, what features of it he
considers essential, what methods appear
to him appropriate for the enforcement of that
policy as he understands it, until his own cours.
has been more fully defined. For the present
therefore, the country gladly rests in the as
surance given by the brief inaugural, and trusts
that the President may not be persuaded that
it is his duty to depart in important respects
from the course marked out by the leader
whose conduct enlisted so strongly the sympa
thies of the people.
AS TO financial matters, especially, there is
little reason to apprehend that President Arthur
can contemplate any important change. His
brief inaugural is more explicit on that than ON
any other topic, and his opinions were 40 fully
and clearly expressed in his letter of accent
aDce, after his nomination last year, that con-
servative business men have felt much conf
dence in him. In respect to the reforms in the
Postal service, too, President Arthur justifics
the belief that he means to Push forward with
vigor the Investigations which have been com
menced, and he cannot be mistaken in regard
TO the tone of public opinion
proclamation has been issued calling
special session of the Senate for October 10. 1t
is assumed from the stress put in President
Arthur's inaugural remarks upon the constitu-
tlonal provisions for the Presidential succession,
that the main object of the called session Ia to
elect President of the Senate, to whom the
Executive power would pass in case of President
Arthur's death. The Government would he in

Il REUNITED UNION.

Around the grave of Garfield the whole
Nation is gathered. There is no North, nc
South, only a united band of brothers, whose
hearts are subdued and softened by a common
grief. Not since the war, indeed not since
many yearssbefore the war, has there been sc
complete a union of the two sections as there
is to-day. The Southern journals vie with
those of the North in the fervOr of their ex-
pressions of sorrow for the grand man who has
gone. Not a harsh word for him, for the party
which elected him, or for the section
which he represented, can be found in
any Southern newspaper of this sad week.
Whether this cordial harmony will con
tnue when the k eenness of our grief shall
have been dulled by time is another matter.
At present it is only our purpose to note its
existence. Whether it continues or not, boil,
sections cannot fail to be more charitable
toward each other for this period of mutual
sorrow.
No words can more eloquently describe the
influence of great grief upon Nation than
those which General Garfield uttered in April,
1866, when, standing upon the floor of the
House of Representatives, he moved an ad-
journment as the day wao the first anniversary
of the death of Lincoln. Little did he or any
one else dream then that his words would one
day apply as well to his own fate as they did
then to LincOn's:
Sir, there times In the history OF and Nations
when they stand the veil which separates mortals
from immorals time from eternity, and from their
God that they almost hear the beangs and the
pusaons of the heart OF the Infinite Through such
time has this Nation passed When two hundred and
ifty thousand brave spirits passed from the field OF
honor through that thin veil into the presence of God
aud when at last its parting folds admitted The martyr
President to the company Of those dead heroes OF the
Republic, the Nation stood the veil that the
Awe-sricken by His voice. the American people knell
ia fearful reverence and made solemn covenant with
Him and with each other that this Nation should be
saved from its enemies that all it's glores should De
restored and this ruins Of slavery and treason the
temples OF Freedom and Justice should be built and
should survive forever
That is wonderfully applicable to the com
try to-day. Around the grave OF Lincoln only
the North gathered The grief for him conse-
Grated only one section. For Garfield the
whole Nation mourns. Both sections, in their
ncarncss to God, are covenantirg to work to-
gether to save the Nation from its enemies and
restore all its glorics. There will doubtless be
wrangling and bitterness before this covenant
shall be carried to completion, but there will
be less of both than there would have been il
Garfield had not died.

As this paper passes into the hands of orr
readers the train bearing the body of James
a. Garfield to its last resting place is moving
back over the route which carried him to
Washington to take the office of President
The contrast between that day and this could
not be more pathetic. The famous ride to
Long Branch will be historic But TO
such dramatic contrast was there as we

way from Washington north, carried a

was fOredoomed to failure. Six months ago,

out from Mentor for Washington, he was in
the prime and vigor of splendid manhood
which promised many years of public useful
ness and hale old age. His physical equip

He had just received, at forty-nine years

such situation the cup of honorable ambi-

bition to do noble work for his country, and to
be remembered for it, was 80 lofty that per

SONS that his murder had no political sgniti-
cance but it might be easily employed to
point an argument against liberal institutions,
and doubtless it will be so used by the sup
porters of arbitrary rule. Still, in the hour of
our trial it is consolatory to know that we are
not misunderstood, and that the best state smen
of Europe, and, better than all, that the best
people of Europe acknowledge that this catas
trophe came through no fault of our institu-
tons, which never were stronger than they are
to-day. Were it otherwise, as thank God it il

IA singularly dfsorganzed condition, it is true,
IT accident or disease should remove the Presi-
dent prior to the election Of presiding officer
by the Senate. But the session itself VIII
evoke many difficulties. The intention Of the
Democrats to exclude the newly chosen Repub-
lean members, until after President pro tenn
has been elected. is no longer concealed, and it
becomes the duty of the Republican Senators to
consider what course they ought to pursue in
ease that attemrt is made.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1881-09-24

A committee of citizens of Cleveland, among
whom is the Hon. Henry B. Payne, have issued
an announcement that they will receive sub
,scriptiODs, limited to one dollar each, for the
erection OF a monument over the grave of Presi-
dent Garfield in Lake View Cemetery. They
recommend that those desiring to subscribe
shall do so as early as possible, and suggest
Monday, the day of the Presidents funeral, as
an appropriate time for collecting the money.
Localities throughout the States and Territories
are requested to organize for the purpose as they
deem best. All contributions are to be for
warded to the Second National Bank of
cleveland, which has been named treasurer of
the fund. Several movements have already
been made toward the erection of monuments
to President Garfield, one of them by the Army
of the Cumberland, but it seems probable-and
'appropriate-that the Cleveland project will
take precedence. The natural place for the
chief monument in honor of great and be-
loved man is where his body lies. There are
are monuments and monuments of
Lincoln, but the chief of them is
lat Springfield. The rule does not always
hold, but it is good rule to follow. After
time it will be possible for the various organ
izations which have taken steps III this matter
to compare notes, and see how far cooperation
for the erection of the Cleveland monument
is practicable. The number of memorials need
not be limited but it is desirable that that
which will mark the lamentcd Presidents rest
ing-place should be an adequate expression of
the National feeling.

The sympathy of the American people with
the heroic and beloved wife of the late PreSi-

tears that it hardly dares to express itself
From the day when the President was shot
and his first thought was like the true knight
that he was, to send dispatch to his wife,
cheering her against the shock, to the day he
died. the people have had before them the spec
tacle OF the mutual devotion of this man and this
woman, thinking always of each other unspoed
by greatness and unconscious that the gaze of
the world was on them. Here is where the blow
falls hard-where death came not as matter
