VETERANS MEET.
A Fund for a Monument to he
Raised at Once.

NEW ORLEANS December pa mass
meeting of Confederate veterans was
held last night, and resolutions were
adopted mourning the death OF the great
Chicftain, and pledginR themselves to
provide fund for the family of the de-
ceased and to raise monument to his
memory.
Gov. John B. Gordon, of Georgia, pre-
sided, and addressed the meeting as fol-
lows: ITO me, and doubtless to you,
this is one of the saddest, yet sweetest
and proudeSt occasions of a lifetime
saddest. because we have just borne to
his tomb our great Chieitain; sweetest,
because we have laid him to rest after
ife's fitful fever is over, true to the
memories of the past, and doubtless true
to the duties of the future and the glory
Of our American republic, the grief over
his death is ours, but his fame will yet be
claimed for his country and mankind"
Gov. Gordon then urged that fund
should be raised to build monument to
lis memory, and provision made for
Mrs. Dauis, and the daughter of the Con
federacy, because it was a holy duty to
our own manhood and the highest priv
ilege left us.
Addresses were also made by Governor
Burkner, OF Kentucky; Gov. Lowry. OF
Mississippi; Gov. Fowle, Of North Caro-
lima; Gov. Eagle, Of Arkansas; Gov.
Fleming, of Florida, and Gov. Nichols, OF
Louisiana, and Others.

A VOICE FROM SWAIN.
A Tribute to Our Late Ex-Presi-
dent Jefferson Davis.

Friends, Carolinians, Countrvmen
Well may We weep and how your heads
in sorrow, for the father of the Con
tederacy is no more. His spirit has broken
its tenement of clay to take an upward
flight. The casket but remains; the
priceless Jewel has been snatched away.
Mother earth is yawning for her illus
trious offspring, and dust must return
to its native dust. Strictly speaking,
Hon. Jefferson Davis was not, at his
death, citizen of the United States, yet
the groans that went up from united
Southland marked him as its chicfest
and most beloved citizen. For amid all
the viciSSitudes of life, she has ever found
him the patriot, the statesman, the sol
der; ever true to principle, to duty, to
virtue. She has weighed him in the bal
ance and found him not wanting"
On the hustings in his native, adopted
and adjoining States, he has ever stood
out boldly and firmly for constitutional
liberty, for the blood stained doctrine OF
States rights, for community iudepend-
cnce. In the halls of the national con-
gress he was true to the same principles.
When called by the voice OF a struggling
South to take the helm in the ship of the
Confcderacy to guide it over the troubled
waters OF '61-5, he answered to the roll
call of duty, and never shrank from its
performance till the sun of the Conttd-
eracy had set and he emerged from the
smoke of battle with his escutcheon un-
tarnished, his glory undimmed, asubducd
but not conquered hero. When the days
of ,-esOnStructior.came hts. was ready to
offer himself as a sacriicial offering for
his devoted Southland, counting it his
reasonable service" He has lived.

been most beautifully said that "it is a
glorious privilege to die young" but re-

Davis claimed not this privilege, but that
he lived SO long, model to the young.

EXTR ACT
From Bishop Beclkwith's Memo.
rial Address at Atlanta.

"No amount of human hatred has been
able to point to a spot or stain on the
character of Jefferson Davis. Whatever
his judges may claim against him, it is
true that when once he believed he was
obeying the call Of duty, no power short
Of the omnipotence of God, could make
him swerve from the path he had chosen
THE past is too closed for this genera
tion to do him justice, but in the future a
different verdict will be rendered and flu
ture generations will look and know it
to be true, that no more monumental
character than that Of Jefferson Davis
ever existed. He is n model tor the
Young men of the South. Absolutely
pure. absolutely earnest and absolutely
conscientious, he is as grand an illustra-
tion OF duty as can be found in the his
tory of the world. Never counting the
cost of an action he considered right, be-
cause lie brought his great life to the
foot of the cross and took his inspiration
from there.
II think he was a greater man in the
davS of his misfortune than in the days
Of his prosperity. No power could ever
wiring from him the acknowledgement
that the cause for which he struggled
was not a just one. He was never
grander than when he wore the shackles
hanging to his wrists, and occupied a cell
as telon.
"Once spoke to him of those days.
The face SO gentle and the smile so Win
ming | saw transfgurcd. He spoke no
word, but the lines about his face grew
deep.
THE color faded from his cheeks, and
the light in his eyes grew hard. He was
transformed into monumental iron, and
though he uttered not word, ! had but
to look at him to see spirit which was
master almost of death.
Let us remember that as the future
will honor Mr.. Davis because he was
pure, because he was brave, and because
of his devotion to duty, so the future wi !
inscribe our names on the book of life
Just as we are pure hearted and brave as
he was.
when Mr.. Davis left public life and
betook himself to the retirement and
privacy of his home, no offers could bring
him to alter his decision and accept
either position or wealth. There i'll his
home he sat apart, Il simple gentleman
but the monumental representative of
cause that was lost. So age gathered
bout him while the watchers stood at
distance, admlring always, but unable to
offer consolation. At last out of the ST
lence came a voice that whispered to
him: The Master is come and calleth
for thee. Then the great spirit winged
it's way into the shadow of the valley of
death and is now in Paradise with God.
Let us remember the emample of his
life. He was a child of Gods church.
the incarnation of principle and the
greatest exponent of duty performed for
dutys sake"

AOuestiOn Answered.

The following letter was written by
Jefferson Davis two years ago to a New
Bedford. Mass, man, in answer to a
question: What is the difference be-
tween a Northern and a Southern demo-
cratH,
BEAUvoIR, Miss, November 10. 1887.
Dear Sir: You ask me the difference
between Northern and Southern demo-
crat. can only answer that there should
be none. There was none between
Samuel Adams, of Massachusetts, and
Thomas Jefferson, of Virginia; or be-
tween Senator's Franklin Pierce, of New
Hampshire, and John c. Calhoun, ,ofSouth
Carolina. Each of these, as types of the
democracy of their day, regarded the
States as sovereign members of the
Union. and the Constitution as the com,
pact by which they were voluntarily
united.

FROM A CANNON's MOUTH.
Unfortunate Incident of the Davis
Memorial in Columbia.

COLUMBIA, December 11.-Thc firing Of
the minute guns in the State House
grounds to-day was suddenly interrupted
by serious accident to two of the gun
ners. The gun went off prematurely,
horribly wounding Messrs J. w. Fouche
and j. {. Blanton, two members Of the
artillery company, workmen in the rail
road shops.
Drs. Talley and Taylor were immcdi-
ately summoned and did all in their
power to relieve the sufftrings of the
wounded men.
The premature explosion was caused
by spark in rift of the gun, which
could not be touched by the wet swab.
The gun, a:three-inch: :Dahlgreen, had been
cast in 1861, and was hshed out of the
Congaree after the war. Mr.. Fouchc,
acting No. l, had just rammed the
powder home. The rammcr was blown
out of his hand to great distance. One
eye was badly burned and may be de
Stroyed. Mr.. Blanton was acting No. g
The rammer struck his hand and he may
lose the use it.
AS these young men were out under
orders from the adiutant general by a
resolution of the legislature, it is pro-
posed to apply to the legislature for aid
for them.

RrazII,s Future DoubtfuI.

Dom Pedro is not as tired of his i'm
perial office as has been supposed. He
will go back to Brazil, he says, if the
people call him. He has the good sense,
however, not to issue a manifesto.
"Manifcstoes, he says wisely. "are only
words: they have no practical utility in
our time" Defeated candidates for office
everywhere ould do well to treasure
the Empcror's remarks 'on this point,
His view of the capacity of the Brazilians
for free institutions is not favorable.
"They possess" he observes, more
imagination than common sense" As
for the present provisional government,
Dom Pedro thinks il is "only an expert
ment," and is unlikely to last.

Great Drainage Scheme.

The Florida papers state that the great
undertaking of reclaiming the swamp
lands of the Okefenokee swamp is alb ut
to begin in earnest, under the Superin-
tendence of a we'll known New York con.
tractor Actual measurements in the
swamp show that there is very little, it
any, fall in the Suwannee liver, which
rises near the centre. The engineers who
have made several preliminary surveys
of the land say the only feasible plan
to drain it is to cut deep and wide ca
nal through the swamp, beginning near
the head of the Suwannee and going in
roundabout direction through the
swamp until point in the river is
reached where there is some fall After
this canal is finished the Suwaunee will
be turned into it, and thus much of the
water will be taken from the surface of
the ground and carried off in the canal.
The Okcfenokee covers forty miles Of
land in Georgia and twenty-five miles in
Florida, and the gentlemen interested i'll
the draining scheme have conhd nee
enough in it to back it with four million
dollars in money. The work is to be
done for so much mile.
