Look night: 81 met Secre-
tary Blaine to-day, and
ing Old. 1 was surprised, al
most shocked, at the
change [ saw in him since about year
ago. l saw him just after he returned
from Europe, and he was looking very
we'll; paler certainly and whittier of
hair than few years ago, but alert and
vigorous. [ saw him yesterday and he
seemed languid; he impressed me as an
old man. 1t seems to me that one year
has made good deal Of difference in
him." l suggested that wrestling with
the gentlemen who want to be ministers
and consuls might be very wearing.
My friend of the house of representa-
tiveS would not assent to that. 1.-The

seriously hurt any one yet-they may be
a great bore; have seen in politics
enough to appreciate the fact that they
are a bore. No, neither the officeseek-

dition explain why the secretary is

Commissioner of Pensions Tanner
made speech at Columbia, Tenn, on

the country owes to the Union veter-

Confederate veterans, as follows:
"Now, on the other hand, claim that
It Is the moral and religious obligation
of the States OF the South, who passed

youths OF our land into this war-it is
their duty through State legislation to
enact such laws and 10 make such appro-
priations as will provide foT them III their
declining gears, and here and now | am
so presumptuous us 10 declare that every
comrade who wore the Union blue and
who SINE the war has cast his lot among
you, whose material POSSESSIONS are with
you, will cheeriully submit to his pro
rata share of taxation which may be
necessary In these States TO see tbs the

on hundreds Of battle fields, felt the hor-
rors of war to the last extremity. G m
mon deeency demands this action on the
part of the Legislatures OF the States who
passed the ordinance OF. secession, and
freely declare that in all the great North
land the voice Of no decent man or
woman will be raised in protest at such
action"
We believe that these sentiments will
be concurred In by the majority of the
Union veterans These men, who a
quarter OF century ago did all in their
power to destroy the Union, are now
old and tottering down to their graves,
and although their sin WAS great, they
have been severely punished. They
were brave men, who fought nobly in
behalf of & mistaken cause, and we
have ten thousand times more respect
for them than we can ever have ioi
the COppeTheads who stabbed the
Union soldiers In the back. Something
should be done for them, and it is fol
the people Of the South to determin,
whether this can be best accomplished
by the States themselves or by private
subscription.
