"The Rebel Curiosity Skop.n

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: / send in
closed the calls for the meeting of Conftder-
ate Veterans in Richmond, Va. On June 80
and July and 9. / cannot understand how
they can claim to be able to FAY that it is
not in dislOyalty that they will yell again
the rebel yell and wave the rebel flag and
pass glowing tributes to the so-called Presi-
dent Jeff Davis.
Is it not dslOyalty TO honor traitor? A
monument TO him as United States Senator
or Governor of Mississippi in his native
State would not he Objectionable; but when
they erect one TO him in the capital of the
erstwhlc Confederacy as a monument of
their devotion to the Lost Cause, and as
Wise claims they lost their country, would
like 10 know where they now. If he
had said they lost their ringers" could
understand him and his wall much better.
Now, everybody understands that Rich
mond wants TO advertise herself as the
curiosity shop Of the defunct Confederacy,
and for this purpose is getting together all
the Old relics, from jeff Davis down, so as TO
attract tourists to the boarding houses.
When they first started the show they used
to pay the fare of poor ex-Contederates SO rs
to make up the crowd each year, as they
want to establish n permanent celebration
"a sort of rebel mardi gras-in which all the
saloon keepers and hotels are deeply inter-
ested.
But the bulk of the ex-Confederates have
no faith in these Richmond showmen now,
as they mad but little faith during the war,
as shown by the following extract from the
History OF the 18th Va" p 6l Geo. Wise,
the author, writing Of June, 1862, says:
Richmond was filled with people of every
grade from the earnessFyrhpathizers in our
cause, to the shylocks vito seized upon any
prey within range of thtir tender mercies,
whether citizen or soldier, widow or orphan;
and it is to this class of people, whether
native or imported, may be greatly attributed
the downfall of the Southern Confederacy;
to them rightfully belongs the opprobrium
which fraud and extOTtion should ever bring
upon their votaries! fiAt
1T is needless to say these people re-
manned in civil life, pursuing whatever avo-
cation would best accomplish their end"
And they are there in Richmond yet, and
the avOcation they are. now employed in is
collecting and exhibiting the remains of the
late Confederate Staffs to the curiosity
seeker. But they did not want to keep
Libby. That was a thorn in their side. 1t
should have been purchased by Northern
people, AMI kept there with the records of
the atrocities perpetrated in it emblazoned
on its walls.-WM. Il. DOYLE, Stevensburg,
