II is embarrassing for preacher to
have to make out case in a funeral

Cost of the Late War...In Part.
MESSENGER OF Peace

The country lost six hundred and
fifty-six thousand men, or about one
sixth as many as there were slaves,
and three billions and seven hundred
millions of dollars, not including the
loss of the labor and industry of the
vast armies, North and South, during
the four years of war.
"The valuation set OH the slaves, at
the request of Abraham Lincoln in
1862, by members of Congress from the
Border States, was three hundred dol
lars each, and assuming their number
at four millions, which is an over-esti-
mate, tile value of all the slaves in the
United States was one billion and two
] hundred millions of dollars, or less
than one-third of the money cost Of
| the war.
"But it is questionable whether loss
of the men and money was the great
est detriment. The subtle moral evil
which pervades society and invades
every household, and is clearly tracea-
BILE to this source; the record of in
creasing crime which blackens the
journals of the land, and takes it's date
and beginning from 1862; the feverish
war spirit which survives in military
organizations and the minds of men,
producing an imminent tendency to
war, which did not previously exist !;
the sectional feeling between the North
and South, outlasting generations; the
contention and bitterness of conflicts
between races and between castles,
make an accumulation, a sum total of
evil, beyond calculation.
| \ K X
"Abraham Lincoln, wise and far-see-
ing, blessed with special opportunities
for clear and distinct views of the is
sue, and a true understanding Of af-
fairs, gave the weight Of his great
name and jundment to compensated
emancipation in 1862. He was over
borne by the passions Of men and the
din Of war. But subsequent events
have vindcated his wisdom. The risk
was great: the North approached
much nearer to financial exhaustion
than was then publicly known"
