i'i:. lacy's ORATION.
Wo meet to day, friond aud fellow
countrymen, iu obedieuce to the iu
Btinot of nature, to pay homage to
those who dared for us aud who sleep
their lon^ sleep. It is lilting that wo
should, iu this simple way, hallowed
now by usage, show our rovereueo by
scattering memorial blooms over tbo
graves of our honored dead. Nature
gives the bountiful and suggestive ex?
ample. Time Roftoue aud levels the
rudo hillock where door ones lie buried
to a gentle aud graceful ludulatiou, and
covers the garnish red claw with gar?
niture of green and gold. Thu forcBt
are gay with leafy bauuere. The birds
siug i? the vcrduous branches. Tho
eweet South winds soughs aud sighs
through the swaying boughs. Flowors
bespangle the happy earth, nua one
feels iudeed that "ibe winter is over
, and gone, that
"Spring, with that namclc? path<? In tlis air,
which dwells wit? -II things fsir.
Spring, with hrr gulden Min mi I ilivcr ram,
Is sith us once again."
And with gladdened aud saddened
heart we pay our annual memorial
tributes. 1 ardou an old soldier, how?
ever true aud sincere his allegiance
may be to our country, und however
loyal to our country's honor aud our
country's Hug, if tho sight of n gray
jaoket, an empty sleeve, n thumpiug
stump and the starry cross unfurled
in peace aud memory awukeus emo?
tions ot Badness, if toars bedew tho
flowers and our martial burs wail iu

'Ihirty years or morn hove passed
since the last shot was tired iu tho war
between the States. A geueratiou of
men aud women have come upon the
?tage of action to whom tho deods of
those years of trial, horoism anil glory
are but tales of tho past; why, then,
these annual pilgrimages to tho shrines
of tho dead? Why these lading tributes
of an nufading attention, theso perish,
iug testimonies to imperishable glory?
What mean these assemblages, tbeso
acattered chuplets upon graves often of
nnknowu men, aud the public homage
to our dead uomrudes? It means for
one thing, nbsoluto acquiescents* in the
issues of thut great conflict. Tho ap?
peal was to arms, Tho decisiou is ac?
cepted. Tbo sword is sheathed. Tho
war is over. Brave mou met in deadly
' strife, and such men recognize valor
and justice. Thoy met us Iocs. They
now ure friends. Yea, more, it menus
hearty recoucilatiou aud tho era o!
trust and good feeling. It is becauso
this is our owu, our native laud, aud
the flag of the Union >s our Hag, bo
cause no suspicions of disloyalty n licet?
thoBO who once weru enemies; thnt wc
can thus meet and look upon tho ban?
ner thnt aforetime led ua to victory,
aud speak of those days and of
our comrades, not iu whispered
tie.-ent and with bated breath, but
openly, honorably a nd proudly. It is
because tieriect couiidouco is restored
aud uuroserved fellowship tout such u
scenu as this is possible where the
Btraugely commingled emotious of
pride and saduees, love, devotion and
submission, without humiliation, bit
terness or regret, play tturostruiued in
swelling bosoms. No, we trust them
aud they trust us (if 1 may say "them"
and "us"), und thu old soldier who
wore the blue thinks nouo tho less of
him who wore the ; gray, nor will he
who rodo with Shoriduu or fought with
Grant censure us who arc proud thut
ever we heard the clarion call of
Stonewall Jackson, or served under
the command of suoh a leader a9 Gen.
Hubert E. Lee.
U seems for another thing, regard
for principle. This stupendous con
flict that shook the couiiuent was not
an accident, nor tho result of a fnucied
ins dt to some royal popiujay. It was
not u contest for glory between rival
kiugdoms, or rival aspirants to a
throne. It was au appoal to the arbit?
rament of arms to decide the structure
of our government. I shall not discuss
the causes that led to the war. But 1
affirm that our comrades who fought
for Dixie were actuated by motives of
patriotism as pure,as noble nud as hon?
orable as those who fought on the other
side. 1 accord to theui all honor ami
patriotic purpose. 1 claim tho same
lor ourselves. 1 mako no comparisons.
But we are uot ashamed of our record,
we hovo done nothing for which wo
are called upon to apologize. Wo
fought accordiug to our view of tho
structure of our goverumeut for whut
was right.
Tho ie?uo was decided ngaiDst us
and it is accepted. But our motives
were pnre and patriotic. "If that bo
treason mako the most of it," No less
a person than Chief Justice Waite has
ooined the phrase as a statement of tbo
principles of goverumeut decided by
the war that "this is an indissoluble
onion of indestructible States." And
in a leoent famous docisiou ol the Su?
preme Court tbo phrase is quoted by
the present Chief Justice with nil
amendatiou, "au indestructible union
of iudestructible States." And, so at
least, a faot of the governmental prin?
ciple for which we contended is ao
knowleged aud perpetuated.
It goes without sayiug that tbeso me?
morial measures mean, most of ail,
honor to our gallant dead. They do
serveitull?all you can give them?of
honor Bnd of love and of tihal duty.
Whenever privation, hardship and toil
cheerfully borne mav wnkeu tho chord
of sympathy; whenever self-sacrifice,
anxious effort nod ludomitable forti?
tude may quicken the glow of admira?
tion; whenever patient persistence,
pstriotio love of native land, and uu
couquerahle courage lu uctiou may
cause the blood to bonntl und tho
breast to heave with emotion,tho mem

Soldier will be cherished nod honored
to tho furthest vorne of time. He ii

quil of a valor princely aud undyiug.
'So fail lift 1 t< Iot? and an dnuntleu in war
There ttcvsr was knight lilt, our youug l .bin

Nor ia it surprising that anoh un?
stinted praise is due, when we remem?
ber that these were no Hessiaua hired
tu tight. No Dugold Dolgettys takiug
ut ins for tho side where the moat booty
could bo i;otten, no mercenaries bought
with gold. But they cauio from happy
homes in obedience to thu call of their
uativ'c State, from marts of trade aud
commerce, from farms and country
firesides, from halla of learning und
study, Irom the threat professions ami
from legislative chumbers to do battlo
for their rights. Their swords were
buckled on by their wivcK und mothers,
with thu Spartan mother's oourngo and
behest. Their sisters and their sweot
heurtB cheered them with mules of ap?
proval nud restrained their tears at
purlin*;. The Southern soldier kuow
for wbat ho was Uchtiug.
It menus, moreover, this Memorial
Day, justice to thu living. And by
this I menu nut tho revereuou duo to
the suivivors ot bo many hard-fought
fields. Comrades, wo are growiug
fewer your by year. Our rauks aro

any who wore the gray; that the boos
and daughters of thoBu who died for
Virginia and tho South shall nut be
branded thereby ns rebels; that history
shall bo truo and thu awards of life im?

tice, uud to this oud for research and
Knowledge, and tho dissiuieuutlou of
the truth. I plead that our ohildreu in
schools bo taught thu reason, tho mean?
ing, the facts oud the results of that
Kreut Btrugglo.
It is one of tho striking teachings of
our times that facts, dates, great names,
great empires have hud their records
uuciirthed to our eye. The spade is
tho greiit historian, A nation's history
is connected with, (may I not rather
any ia told by) its tributes to the dead.
Wo all kuow tho meaning of the pyrn

ot architectural beauty and devotion

buried cities, tho buried empires, tho
buried etviiizutiouB that have been ex?
humed, have taught ua auew the
menuiug uud the necessitj' of monu?
ments. Tbo litttite literature has

mi, Hook's remarks,
When Dr. Laoy bad concluded bis
masterly address which The virginian
presents almost iu its eutirety, Dr.
Moses i). H?ge wus introduced. Dr.
Huge spoko with grout feeling. He
said that tho Confederate veterans
have nn important duty to perform. It
is their duty to honor tho memory of
those who fell lighting for a cause
which they knew to bo right.
It is their duty to instruct tho ris?
ing generntiou uud eoo that events of
history are told without prejudice, nud
build monuments to perpetuate tho
I memory of our gallant dead. Uo elo
I iiuently alluded to tbo great Coufoder
I nte leaders. Lee, Jackson, Hill, Stew?
art, und said that these could have ac?
complished but little but for tho cour?
age nod devotion of thu private soldier.
Dr. H?ge wbi listened to with undi?
vided attention aud bis remarks woro
applauded with euthnaiusm. At the
conclusion of Dr. Hope's address tbe
assemblage was dismissed with the
bonediotion by Dr. M? Be Wbarton and
tbo procession Jwas reformed nod
marched tbrougb the cecuotury, when
a bait was made for a few minutes aud
tbree volloys were tired over tbo Cou
federate graves aud then back to the
city._

This is a spleudid showing and renders
tho "Piuaforo performance one of tho

Irving Literary Circle, under whose
auspices the eutortaiumeut wus given,
first intended to devote two thirdu oil
the not proceeds to the Atlanta
Hebrew Orphan Home, aud one
third to Norfolk charities. Since,
however, because of ho exceeoingly
liberal patronage extended by the Nor?
folk public, tho Circle decided to mako
a more equal division of tbo fund,

As competition increases it becomes
harder aud harder for the tnisiooss man
to succeed, and in recognition of this
fact, tho public is informed that this or
that thiug has "come to stay." A
{strong purpose is good, but doing tho
thing is even better. One of the
grautest stayers wu kno? of is Puiu
Killor, tho advertisements of which we
are printing clsowhere. This famous
old family remedy has stayed in tho
homes of "the couutry fifty-livo years,
and is to day moro popular than aver.
This one fact proves its value, and
makes argument unnecessary. It only
remains for the proprietors (as they are
uow doing) to remind esah comiug
generation that for over half a century
Pain-Killer has beon recoguizod as thu
handiest, surest aud cheapest euro for
tho common ills of humanity, uud that
