What made Aii'lersonville appear so bad in the ?ye* of the world is that the North always treated Its prisoners hu­ manely. The civilization of the nine­ teenth ceiitury had obtained with ouf Government. No man who was In cite rebel army and was incarcerated in a Northern prison can say thai his ra­ tions were ever shortened; that he was ever maltreated or had clothing denied him. We did right in not retaliating on their prisoners, but should have wreaked vengeance upon the ailthbrs of the sufferings of our boys. There, was no justification for this rebel- cruel'.y. Our first great stiength was physical, hi putting down tlio rebel­ lion; our second, moral in the forgive- ness of those who hud fought against the preservation of the Union. Tlios^ wlui fought the battles lor the preser­ vation of the country have now the pleasure of witnessing * better feeling prevailing between the North and South than has been known since the beginning <>r the slavery agitation in 1820. We all know now that the. war has done its perfect work. for- give if we cannot forget. «• • --•-- Governor Groavenor'a Addveia at the Milwaukee tie-Union. CoWades of the Army of the Cum­ berland It is more than seventeen years since the great war between tlie ttrmies of the United States and the rebels who sought to overthrow and destroy the Nation ceased. Unlike the dead of other wars, the memories of our patriotic dead have not with- eretl and grown old. Their places at the fireside are yet kept open, and their vacancies among their fellows have never yet been filled. The fallen heroes of Balaklavalie in theobscurlty of forgetfulness, But our dead live on. They live iu the grand examples they set their fellows. They live in the Natloual life they made possible; they live in the broken sliacKlefe of the slave and the song of hope of enfranchised bondsmen; they live in the hearts and memories of their countrymen, and, living, inspire the present generation of men to value the priceless boon they saved for them, and be jealous of the safety of the country they died to rescue. These seventeen years consti­ tute an epoch of marvelous progress. The material growth of the nation has by far surpassed tlie mo6t enthusi­ astic anticipation of the men of 1865, This period will always be noted and distinguished as one conspicuous for (lie development 6f invention, the progress lif scientific knowledge and the perfection of art. No equal num­ ber of yrars that p-eceiled it has borne so much and s6 choice fruit. From no conceivablo standpoint i« America less great, less pure, les& good, or less pros­ perous than twenty years ago. Front every conceivable standpoint Is she be tier, richer, stronger, greater aud purer. . The States lately in arius to overthrow tlie Nation, to-day share fully WHib* Xqr̂ U lij 1$i '*!£»!»$». of prosperity.. The barriers of prej­ udice aud ^sectionalism have been broken down. The people of the North and the people of the South know and appreciate each other, and we havq learned that no section of this country can bo prosperous while any other section is suffering. The meji who fought to destroy the Union Ut 1861. are its best aud most intelli­ gent frit-nds In 1882, and the near race of young men which has come forw*rd« to taky the place vof the generation passing away, recognizes in one conn- try, one constitution and one flaf the only hope for the regeneration and permanent welfare of the South. Now that the Union Is forever safe, now that all sections oC the Country Join in allegiance to It. tlie time 'lias eome when plain language may be used to re-state the issues upon which the war was begun, and for tlie determiuatiou or which \t was w iged. We did not GO TO WAR you A SENTIMENT. The people of the States. North anil South, were too wise for that. Wo did not go to war to defend or to destroy slavery, 'The people had not been educated up to that point. What*then?' It was to desfoy the idea anil fact of i^jitiottal supremacy ami indivisible union that ttie people of the South went to war. It was to establish* i^aiutain and make perpetual this idea that the North" we lit to war. It was to maintain all we had of Union atul con­ stitutional government and so enlarge its scope and operation that the North resisted the South in its attempts to destroy aujl rebuild. Union and National supremacy on one hand! Se­ cession and State Sovereignty on tlie other! Political antipodes! Opposite poles! The differences were organic and fundamental. To-day we me the brave men who jumghythe ilestru«5 tiou of the g^vertunent as brothers, OIIO and all-^brotliers iu allegiance to the saved ami glorifi»5\Nation. We harbor no trace of Aniitosity toward them, but we cittinot/ forbid wurselves the happy thought /Wt \tj this great contest we were oiVv£b« right side.

He believed a famine was coming. afri| has not dis­ posed of any of his crops since 1865, aud thousands of bushels of wheat and all kinds of grain, tons of hay and straw are hoarded in Immense sheds and stacks about the farm, which have become worthless from rot and rats. Some of his cattle, horses and hogs are ready to die with old age, some time since he showed a friend a horse which had not been out of. the stall for eight years. He has lost thousands of dollars every year from rot and rats In his grain; He would lose whole crops of grain, rather than pay for help to save it. The value of his estate Is es­ timated at 8100,000. 8Gr*A Memphis man at a masquerr «de ball concluded that George Wasfr ingtou drunk would attract more at- tenteon than George #ashington sober.
