LoNGsTREET's TRIBUTE.
The Confederate Generals Glowing Tribute
to the Dead Union C.,mmander.


In connection with the tribute paid
on Tuesday to the memory of General
Grant at New York, the former we'll
known Confede ate commander. Gene
raj LOHgstreet, saws:
SIT was my good fortune to know, as
few others cOu d, that Grants heart
went out in sympathy for the brave
men and women of the south during
the distressing times of reconstruction
and to my old comrades who followed
the stars and bars of the south to the
gloom and glory of Appomattox l want
to say, General Grants heart went to
Us in all of our woes He appreciated
the principle that all governments de-
rive their power from the confidence
and aspect Of the people, and his great
mind and patriotic heart were bent
toward the re-esrablishment of cordial
feelings between the sections of the
land. If every old Confederate soldier
or widow of Confederate to whom he
gave helping hands could leave a tear
about his tomb, it would be baptized in
loves b. st Offering.
ITO the brave men of the other side
of the great strife, my people send mes
sengers to crown this august occasion.
We turn from the setting star of the
COnfederacy to accept the glorious flag
of the Union, to put it bout our hearth
stones and love it as we love our noble
women; we stand guard about and up
hold it forever; its glories are ours with
undivided hearts, Undivided people, ,un-
divided arms to protect its triumph.
1--WE are with you today, and all days
brothers and friends. ALI passions are
buried and gone, and with the ragged
remnant of our once proud army, we
offer the loving tribute to the chief
tain who led you to victory-renewed
heartfelt allegiance to the great Union;
your Union; our Union. On this in E.
spring occasion we love to tell you
that for all the grandeur and majesty
Of Grants character; for all the splen-
dor of his generosity to our brave men
and broken people, his name shall be
embalmed in the hearts of our children
and of our children's children with de-
votion as warm as our Southern sun.
'Illustrious citizen of the republic,
in danger brave, in victory generous,
we help to crown him with his peoples
love, and in presence of the
highest officials of state and municipal
ity we help dedicate this monument to
his name and fame, and lift them like
incense to the powers above.
"He was so easily a general that he
failed to note his own reserved powers.
He will grow with his own generation
and those who come after until they
earn to appreciate his worth"
