What Saved The Union.

share with you in all the pleasure
and gratitude which Americans so far
away from home should feel on this
anniversary. But must dissent from
one remark of our consul, to the effect
that ! saved the country during the
recent war. If our country could be
saved or ruined by the efforts OF any
one man, we should not bave coun-
try, and we should not now be cele-
brating our Fourth of July. There
are many men who would have done
EAR better than dill, under the circun-
stances in which | found myself during
ndu never ueTu coIn
mand; if | had fallen; if all of our
generals had fallen, there were ten
thourand behind us who would have
done our work just rs well, who would
have followed the contest to the end,
and never surrendered the ULion.-
Therefore il is mist axe and renpc-
ton upon the people TO attribute to
me, or to any number Of Us who held
high commands. the salvation of the
Union. We did our work as we'll as we
conld, and so did hundreds of thou
sands of others. We demand no cred
it for it, for we should have been I'M
worthy of our country and of the
American name if we had not made
every sacrafice to save the Union. =
What saved the Union was the coming
forward of the young men of the ma
ton. They came from their homes
and fields, as they did in the Revolu-
ton, giving everything to the country
To their devotion we owe the salvation
of the Union. The hnmblest soldier
who carried muslxet is entitled TO ms
much credit for the results of the war
as those who were in command. SO
long as our young men are animated
by this spirit there will be no fear for
Union. Fourth Of July Speech Of Gen.
