The Battle of fredericksburg.
fredericksburg Free Lance)


Saturday last was the anniversary day
of the great battle of Fredericksburg.
In the flight of time and in this era OF
peace and prosperity. when the war CLOUD
land, when the earth no longer resounds
with the tread of martial hosts, men
and women are apt to forget that things
were once different-apt to forget that
that devotion peculiar to the descen-
dants Of the cavalier-was once the scene
of carnage and strife; apt to for
get that our own city Of f'rederlcks-
South's glorious cause, and yet forty
years ago she braved danger SO terrible
as to cause even the most coura-
geous hearts within her confines TO
ped as she was in the fearful en-
brace Of Federal shell and canister. she
bore it silently, uncomplainingly, be-
cause the South demanded the sacrifice
homes their property destroyed, their
lives in many cases sacrificed, and yet
the glory of her fate more than repaid
the loss. Fredericksburg stands to-day
a monument of southern valor, shining
example of southern patriotism. On the
border of the northern country she en-
countered such evils during the years
of the civil war as would have dWarfed
the sacrifices made by the Russian towns
when the Emperor Napoleon with his
legions undertook to conquer that cOun-
try. She bore the brunt of the battle
shock, but she has survived and to-day
her people with one accord are resolved
that she shall become as grand in peace
as she was brave III war; that the recol-
lections OF that struggle and of the
courage Of her people then shall be to
her people now an incentive to place her
at the front Of the industrial army OF
this century. a remnant of the men
