The Turning Point of the War,


Major Chas. Hilton, Of the Palmer
House. Chicago, in the course Of con-
yersation with an old soldier. related
this: II have often heard men ask what
was the turning point Of the war. Major
Thomas Newsham, who lives in this
State, told several of US once that he had
put the question TO General sherman
one dav. and that the old commander
gave him this reply "It was short time
after the battle Of Corinth, Sherman hal
reported to Halleck. who was in conf
mand, and was there informed that
Grant intended to resign. Grant was
under Hallecks command. When Sher-
man hearl Of this he mounted his horse
and rode to Grants headquarters. Grant
was sore about the treatment he had re-
ceived and told Sherman he would stand
il no longer. He handed Sherman
piece Of paper on which was Grants
resignation. Sherman asked Grant If he
would DO him a favor, and Grant replied
in a sorrowful way that he would il 1t
lay in his power. sherman tore the
resignation into fragments and said he
wanted Grant to withhold his resigna-
ton for two weeks. Grant consented
with hesitation. When the two weeks
were up Halleck had been retired aud
Grant was reinstated. That, said Old
Tecumseh, 4 consider was the turning
point Of the war;

In Regard to Lawyers.

On this subject there is diversity of
opinion. There are lawyers and law
yers, Just as there are doctors, and there
is also considerable variety in preachers.
There are doctors and quacks, and there
are lawyers and shysters. When judge
asked q recently convicted man Have
you anything = caer the court" the
nan rspli-,: "N'oucloaoi, gy aver
took my l2st cent"
That type lawyer is stid - norrisb
like green Ia tree planted by the river
Of waters, partirn'arls in large cities. In
New York the vieir y OF Toe rombs
Laaly swarDs with them.
Procrasiination is the weapon which
msny lawyers rely on most to defeat
Justice. They apprecisse ihe force Of the
maxim that "ho who gains time gains
everything" After few conunuances
the public interest in the case dies ont,
and then If the case il really called for
trial the accused has an easy time Of it.
There isgood reason to believe that
when the angel Gabriel blows his trump
ct vaft army of lawyers will iise mp,
and. from sheer force Of habit, move for
q continuance Ofthe case.

Comrades: Once again the indices on
the dial plate Of time admonish US Of the
approach Of our sacred Memorial Day.
80 paramount is every thought and ac-
ton ofour organization connected with
the privilege, the solemn pleasure and
the duty OF honoring and perPetuating
the memory ofour departed comrades IN
arms that it seems aim 1st work OF su-
interrogation to call this fact 10 the at
tention Of any member Of the Grand
Army Of the Republic. But II IS sweet
and profitable that we should commune
and strengthen one another in our desire
10 so guide our actions on this particular
occasion Of the year as to again renew our
high resolves Of love AMI loyalty to the
memory Of those who have preceded us
10 the last muster, and by our proper
conduct and example command the re-
spect and commendation of all our fel-
low-citizens throughout the nation.
Spring welcomes "our day" with the fair
est garb and her most beautiful offerings
Let us reverently and aIectionaiely gar
land each patriots couch in our depart
inent with the choicest of these and
with feryent, manly love send a benson
Of reverence 10 the unknown graves OF
our patriot brothers, which dot the plains
and hillsides ofour sunny southland.
II. May SOth, 1890, viii he observed
10y the posts OF this department as Me-
mortal Day, and it is hoped that every
comrade will consider it his bounden
duty 10 set aside this one day Of the year
To the solemn performance Of the require
nents Of our associations. Discourage
leviiy and merry-making by every means
in your power, and by your example
during the whole day attest to the yonng
the giddy and the thou2htless that this
day is set apart by the American people
as one ofholiness and respect to memory
Of our soldier dead.
III. Posts will follow the usual custom
Of dividing work in localities where this
is made necessary, but care should be
taken that no one grave be left unmark-
ed. Many new mounds will be found in
almost every cemetery, and they, too,
should have your tender attention.
~. Other kindred and patriotic asso-
Citations, such as the "Women's Relief
Corps the ladies of the G. A. r." the
Military Order Of the Loyal Legion Of
the United States, the "Union Veteran
Legion" and the "Sons Of Veterans,
shoulI be formally invited to participate,
under the direction and as the guests of
the Grand Army Of the Republic.
V. 1t is recommended that posts attend
divine service on the Sunday preceding
Memorial Day.
VI Regular forms for Memorial Day
services as adopted by the department
Of Pennsylvania, can be obtained at these
headquarters by posts that are not al
ready supplied.
