GEN. BLACKS SPEECH,

We give the place of honor this week to
the eloquent address of Gen. John C. Black
at Gettysburg and it is well worthy that
prominence, for it towers far above the ordi-
nary oratory of the Reunion and the conyen-
ton. 1t is deeply philosophic, and yet sug-
gests much more thought than it expresses
The grand drama enacted 81 years before
on the nights where the orator stood, the
still grander drama of which the firing on
Fort Sumter was the overture and Apo
mattox the finale, are surveyed with an eye
that understands the whole meaning of
every incident and mind that analyses and
rightly comprehends every one of the con-
flicting elements, and discusses it in broad,
liberal spirit, chastened by the memory of
the sufferings that were undergone to bring
about the glorious end. All this is formu-
lated with an artistic skill that makes the
speech unbroken music from beginning to
end. Gen. Black has shown that he is q
profound thinker, as well as finished
orator, and the speech will greatly raise him
in the estimation of the whole country.
The speech is we'll worth its place and
the most careful study. 1t is an Grafton that
will live as long as the memory of the war
lasts, and it ought to.

The National tribune. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1877-1917, 1885-05-28

SOME of the ex-soldiers who visited the
President in search of Office, last week,
thought they were saying monstrously
smart thing when they informed him that
the "war ended for them in 1865" What
they really meant by this no one can exactly
tell. Certainly they cannot. They only
felt in some dim, nebulous way that they
were saying what would curry favor with
the dispensers of patronage. They only
made themselves ridiculous. Every good
soldier felt, when he was mustered out in
1866, that the war was only partly ended
that it had to be completed and its results
assured by the arts and ways Of peace.
If these men are SO exceedingly anxious
to have it understood that all their interest
in the war ceased with their discharge, why
do they ever mention the fact that they were
soldiers?

MRS. sHERwooD,s NEW BOOK.

AT length the long waited for volume of
Mrs. Kate B. Sherwood's poems has been
issued from the press Of Jansen, McClurg &
Co., Chicago, and in Typography and general
make up fully SUBSTANCES the high reputation
of that firm for publishing books of excel
lent and attractive workmanship.
We can hardly say anything which would
add to the public knowledge and apprecia-
ton of Mrs. Sherwood as a poetess of rare
genius. She is emphatically the one great
lyric singer of our war. No other pen has pro-
duced so many spirit-stirring lyrics of that
great struggle which convulsed the souls of
3OG00,OOO people, and whose echos still Vi
brate in the hearts of the survivors and the
descendants of those who fought the combat
to an end.
This book, which bears the appropriate
title of Campfire and Memorial Poems,"
contains 212 pages and embraces as of the
poems which have won popular acceptance
and become household words in every part
of the land. 1t is appropriately opened with
the thrilling poem Memories of the War;"
| which runs as follows:
Whenever hear the fife and the drum
And the bugle wildly play,
NV heart is stirred ike "a frightened bird
And struggles to break away;
For the tramp of the volunteers hear
And the Captains sharp command,
| Z" eft Iefti Left " He
And drilling his eager band.
| For the women and men were at one that day
In purpose grand and great;
/ But the men are away IN a stormy fray,
And the women must watch and wait.
| And o for the scenes that they loved so WELL
That haunted their dying day
For a draught from the well that will never swell
| And breath of the new-mown hayl
| All Well, there are few who are left we know,
! OF the many who marched away:
And the children who chung to our skirts trow,
Are as tall and strong they.
| There are ed graves in the lonely South,
There are specters that walk at will
But the flag that you saved at the lannon's mouth
Is the flag that is over you still;
The flag thro the shot and the shell that you bore
And wrapped in your blouses blue.
The flag that you swore to defend eyermore,
Is the flag OF the Union. too.
This is one Of the poems that is bound to
live as long as our flag does, for it gives, as
few poems of the English language do, a
photograph Of that wondrous fever in the
blood which swept all the young men TO the
camps of the Potomac and the Ohio at the
sound of the guns that beat upon Fort Sum
ter. Not even Macaulay's splendid martial
fire surpasses the burning song of the
Western muse.
Next comes the "0ld Flag"
Bronzed and bearded The veterans; their ranks were
| spare and slim;
And The Colonel standing. before them felt his eyes
| grow strangely dim:
lie thought Of the muster. he thought Of the march
| he thought of "A darker day,
And lac thinks he hears through the hush of year.

And lac sees the flashing Of Furnished steel, and the

THE LATE VICTOR HUGO

was a genius and had most eXtraordt-
nary career. Born at BesancOn, France,
Feb. 26, 1902, he died May %, 1885. Before
he was seven years old he had seen Paris,
Rome, Florence and Naples. He early
developed a marked preference for Htera-
ture. At fourteen he had written trag-
edy and two lyrical poems of merit. He
left school when is, and lived with his
mother until her death. In 1922 he gave
the world his first book. Soon after this
he produced the play Hermann" He
was worth just fifty francs. He received
6,OOO francs for the play the first night or
its run. OF his later dramas " Ruy Bias
received the most attention, and had the
greatest vitality. He did great deal or
literary work up to 1912, when his fertility
in this direction was checked by family
bereavements and political activity. His
public life was a stormy one, especially
during the Commune. when ne stood for
liberty and was bitter enemy OF Prince
Napoleon From 1851 to 81, Hugo wrote
much, his most important works being
novels. A famous one, Les Miserables,"
was published simultaneously in ten lam
guages, and another, THE Travailleurs
de la Mer," contains passages remarkable
for descriptive power and dramatic in
tensity. Hugo was severely tried by do
nestle troubles in the prime OF manhood,
and it seemed to deyelOpe rare fondness
for children, which continued with an in
creasing strength until death. This was
well illustrated by an episode in the cele.
bration of his S5th bill, hday, when a depu-
tation of children called to congratulate
him; also by the affection lavished upon
his grandchildren. He left q fortune OK
100000 francs, and gave $4,000 to the
poor OF Paris. OF Hugo's genius and
worth there are numerous estimates. In
all departments of literature he won the
highest honors; indeed. he was the recog-
nized head of France III this respect. his
was a grand and noble life, and all man.
kind should revere his memory. As poet.
novelist, dramatist and polemic writer,
Victor Hugo was foremost in his time, bus
his true greatness finds root in the prlnci-
pie of freedom and courage.

THE PENSION BUREAU.

There is certainly q wonderful access of
activity and business dispatch in the Pen
sion Bureau since Gen. Blacks entrance upon
the duties of Commissioner. The number of
cases disposed of rises steadily from week to
week, as will be seen by comparing the re-
ports we publish. The gratifying announce
ment-gratifying to the YEARLY waiting
men and women throughout the length and
breadth of the land-is made that the cases
are now being sent out of the office twice as
fast as they come in. This begins to look
like an on-coming of that glorious time when
the whole pension business will be wound up
by the allowance to every disabled veteran Of
the Union of whatever may be legally
due him.

OLGILyIE'S HANDBOOK OF USEFUL
INFORMATION
is book that needs to be seen to be fully
appreciated. No description of this wonder
full little volume can convey an adequate
idea of the vast store of information COM
pressed within its covers. There is scarcely
a subject upon which persons in any walk
of life require information which is not to be
found there, and in a form which can be
taken in at glance. The exclamation, " How
did I manage to get along without this
book is one which bursts unvoluntarily
from the lips after brief examination of its
contents.
Realizing what a vast help this Handy
Book would be to everyone of our subScrib-
ers THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE offers il
as a present to all sending one new recruit to
our subscription list. By so doing we place
within the reach of all, without any expend-
iture, this valuable little work. To get one
subscriber is a very small return for the use
full present we offer, and we trust our friends
will respond in manner that will enroll
many recruits under the banner of THE

A SOLDIER-HATING PAPER,

The New York Times is unquestionably
the leader of the soldier-hating press Of the
country. 1t never loses an opportunity to
abuse and villify the soldiers. 1t is bitterly
opposed to all pensions and, logically, to all
pension attorneys. 1t was unsparing in its
denunciation of the "demagoguery" of the
Mexican Pension Bill and every other expe-
dent to increase the allowances to soldiers.
Now, it goes still farther, and opposes that
position of the law which favors the reten-
ton of soldiers in Office, in preference to
civilians. It's editorial columns last Monday
contained this miserable paragraph:
The spoilsmen of both parties in the Massachu-
sets Legislature joined, as they were in our
own, in trying to break down the Civil-Servce act
in that State by Veteran Exemption" bill.
Such measure has passed the Senate and will
come to the House this week. . 1t is to be
hoped that the honest friends of reform in Massa-
chusetts will be able to defeat this transparent
scheme.
The soldiers of Massachusetts,, as of all
other parts Of the country, only ask what is
their natural right, and which is right con-
firmed to them by the laws of the United
States and of most of the Northern States
to wit, that they shall have the preference
for Office whenever the choice lies between
them and civilians of equal abilities and
character This the New York Times would
deny them.
The explanation of its course is very easy
to make. 1t is the most thoroughly un-
American paper printed in our borders. It's
domination by English ideas is amazing
1t is set up in the English style, in English
type; its editors are mainly Englishmen
and it is printed On an English press, and
advocates Free Trade and similar thoroughly
British ideas

Gen. Grants earnest wish to finish the
work in which he has been engaged seems
now likely to be. gratified. Last week the
work was practically finished, and the only
work now for the invalid to do in order to
complete the memoirs is revision and the
addition of some personal anecdotes. There
can be no doubt that the literary labors of
the great soldier have had a most statutory
effect on his health, keeping his mind from
brooding OH the terrible malady which is
slowly but none the less surely doing its
deadly work.
In regard to the health Of Gen. Grant, the
past Week has been but repetition Of the
preceding ones. At times he has suffered
great pain, and ct others he has been not

A TENNESSEE EVANGELIST.

Tennessee is being stirred to its depths by
has enthusiastic revivals following him
wherever he goes. 1t is no unusual thing
for from 5000 to 10000 people to gather at
one of his meetings, and he sways the i'm
mense concourse with master hand. He is
man of little education, but of overpowering
earnestness Of belief in what he breaches, and
a profound conviction that he is inspired by
God to call sinners to repentance. The
Nashville american says of him:
Such is Sam Jones, bold, honest, earnest match
less in his command of an audience, fearing God,
but no man; loving religion and law, but despsing
the affected wisdom of men and the conventi0nali-
ties of fashionable society; rough, but magnani-
nous; aggressive but unseliish; devout, but not
Pharsaical-a bubbling fount fresh from the bosom
Of the earth; natures own, without the artificial
gloss of high cultiyatiOn-a sort of moral diamond
in the rough.
His sayings have rugged force about
them that makes them burn into the mind.
Here are few samples of the epigrams which
stud his discourses:
"Some preachers are so elegant that they always
refer to he'll the burnt district This sort OF
dignity is the starch of shroud.'
Pull up your doubts by the roots and you'll find
q seed at the bottom, and that seed is SIM"
