honored remains, at the end OF a long
and well-spent life.
No nobler theme than his life and ex-
ample could the thousands Of pulpit or
ations to-day be devoted TO. He was al
ways ready for duty. He was always pre-
pared for any call. In war he was a
soldier; In peace, civilian. The lustcr
Of his career In the field is dlmmed only
by the glory of his record in the cabinet.
The power that he won with the sword
he meekly surrendered to the higher
majesty Of the law OF peace. War left
no malice in him. He shielded the con-
quered people where less noble natures
gave themselves up to the ieroclty of re-
vcngeful power. From war he turned to
peace, and the methods OF peace always
commanded his respect. His ambition
was honorable, and he sought an elevated
station only by honorable means.
The story Of his life is one worthy OF
emulation by every young man in the
land, aud as the bells toll to-day, an

The following paragraph from leading
trade journal published in New York city
Is significant: ''If cotton goods cannot
be made in Maine or New Hampshire or
Fall River or Providence to sell at profit,
owing to high freight, why, then, we shall
move the looms to the cotton fields OF
Alabama, Georgia and Louisiana and save
all the expense on bulky freight, and then
we shall be able to send out the cheapest
and best cotton goods the world has ever
been able to buy for the money! Tues
days GAZETTE contained specials
from the towns of Bolton, Al.
bany and Gainesville in this state,
all of them bringing the cheering
news, that capitalists were prospecting
with view to the establishment of

AERAID or HISTORY.

Several very fine panoramic pictures OF
the great battles OF the late war have
been painted and put up for exhibition in
the large cities, and drew large crowds.
Gettysburg and Chickamauga, where the
Union armies were victorious, have been
immortalized by the painters brush.
Then the artist, who seems TO be strictly
'non-partisan," painted panorama Of
the second battle OF Bull Run. 1t was a
fine piece Of work, fully the equal of
others Of the series that had attracted so
much attention, but it COMMUNICATED a
"rebep victory. The g. A. r. rose up in
arms and wratbfully denounced the paint
ing as reasonable In It's tendency. Prob
ably some Of the members of that organi-
cation recognized themselves among the
mass of flying federals, and very natural
ly they resented the perpetuation Of the
memory of this Southern outrage. They
called meeting of the g. A r., and
the following resolution was submitted
and adopted:
Whereas, In the city OF Washington is being
erected a building for the purpose OF exhibiting
panorama OF the second battle Of Bull Run
and
Whereas, the said battle was an unexpected
ylstory for tho rebel arms and humilating
defeat for the Union army;
Resolved, that II is the sense of this post that
tho soldiers of the G. A. H. should discourage
the patronage of said exhibition, because 1T is
Designed 10 crafty the spirit of treason and
perpotuate in the memory OF the people the
triumph of rebellion and one of the most
humillatins defeats suffered by the Union
army during the late war.
In the city OF Paris recently was ex-
hibited panorama OF the battle of Sc
dan, which was one Of the "most humli-
atiug defeats" suffered by the French
during the war, where their emperor
was captured and his army almost ami
hilated We heard nothing of any move
to discourage attendance at the exhibit
ton, though held in the most intensely
eaiSdotic Of all French cities. The G. A.
r., which can't bear an allution to de-
feat of the Union army, ought to learn
lesson, but won't, from the liberality of
these Frenchmen.
II the present and coming generations
could be kept ignorant of the frequent
lckings that the federal armies re-
ceiyed by supervising such exhibitions,
there might be little excuse for the
action of the G. A. r.; but history can
not be suppressed or falsined and the
history of the war teaches no more than
the panorama OF GettYShurg denlcts.
