Who can forget the forced marches by day and night, and the footsore and worn companions as they dropped out never loreturn to us. i mr comrades sleep in the soil of; Kentucky, Tennessee, (jsrorgla, Alabama, North and South Carolina. \\ ho can forget Chickainaugn, where so many of our numbers slept the sleep of death, while you carried the enemies works as If It had been sport, or the ever memorable march from Dalton to Atlanta. Every hilt was a battle field and taught the enemy that only overwhelming numbers could move us. Cailantly did you dispute every inch of ground, well do J remember the sad look depicted upon each (ace as wc crossed the Chattahoochee and encircled Atlanta. The contest around Atlanta was long and you acquitted your.-elves ^ailantly, but death invaded our ranks and claimed many of our nuble boys there. In our reflections the mind turns with horror from Franklin, from that night when death reigned king and the very air we breathed seemed laden with shot ami shell. When every one does his duty it is unwise to he personal. Hut It was at Franklin that the Southern soldier made a name that will live while time la-t<. It was then that blood ran like water. The world never before or since saw such heroism as was displayed there. It was more inai nui ij onni, me .^uMievwm ui the West, fell with his victorious men in tl.c enemies works. Generals foil like autumn leaves but privates lay like sand upon the sea shore. Franklin should bo considered tho bloodiest drama of the war, and as the battle of all others, to be celebrated in song and story. Time will not pen it ?ny saying more and necessitates my leaving unsaid many things worthy ol the bards song or the historians pen.

With sad hearts we retreated?a haudfull before overwhelming number.'*. The enemies march was marked by one continuous scene ot tire, ruin and desolation, und to-day many silent sentinels rerun ir. to at test that.Sherman passed that way. lJutwe hope that nil who were engaged in that diabolical work may like their leader ever deny that they did it. it has been said that Athens ourlcd her fallen heroes in her most beautiful gardens,except those who fell nt Marathon und they In recognition of their valor were burled where they fell. Our comrades sleep all over the West with the starry canopy of heaven making their resting places more honored than if they slept in guildcd vaults, Guard sacredly tho memory of your fallen dead, even though they sleep among strangers. I.ovlng what we lost does not make us any less tlie loyal, If so then let us be branded traitors and we will iiiory in the appellation. The clouds which obscured that Hag for which so many gallant sons of the South uied has passed away beneath the ri-ing sun of peace and happiness, since the voice ot the nation has proclaimed Grover Cleveland president of there United States, we of the South are once more in the union and there to stay. No longer arc We cursed with nil infamous radical ruicand negro domination. The last vestige of the war has been removed and our days of humiliation are of the past.

And so this Incipient revival may he written in tlie sand too, If the Wash iugton legislator lias learned nothing during the year. Still, there Is obviously a bolter basis for a full development existing now than did twelve months ago. The mere fact that another twelve months have passed, during which a natural ettort has been suppressed by an unnatural restraint, Is Important. In the meantime, too, the country lias digested last year's crops, for it is one tiling to raise them, but not until they have passed in to tint!

Now It is apparent also that another harvest with even larger crops Is almost assured. Manv millions more hales of cotton to be marketed) means (even at a low price) more to the producer throughout a very large section, where, it should be remembered, all crops have done remarkably well tills year; it means also more business to the railroads, that distribute the increased product, more to the merchants that handle it,and it especially means cheap and abundant raw material for our cotton mill", which have been living 011 a short supply for two years. Then a second large crop of corn?pel haps 1.7),'*>0,1)00 or more larger than the last?and ol everything else exeunt wheat, (of which we and the rest of the world have >0 large a surplus,) obviously make a basis just so much better than a year ago for a revival of all our industrial interests.

M'lm I'lrnl Itnn n I.ocoiuotivc In Aiiierlcn, mid Ills Trip. mimlcl/thiii I'rcsx. Horatio Allen, the Ilrst man whoever ran n loeomotl ve on the A inerh'im continent, Is si ill nlive.aml isoiicol the heartiestold men in (he quiet New Jersey town in which ho resides. He has written si letler to a irlcnd at Semnton, in which he describes the engine ' and the trip, which was made on Hie banks of J the l.ncttawaxcn, near Honcsdaie. June 111. ' ls-jy. The canine was purchased In Kngliiud 1 for the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company I by Mr. Allen, and It received its name. "The I .Stourbridge I.Inn," by a mere accident. There ' was a bulge in (lit; boiler, caused l>y a Maw in its construction, and on this the ingenious j builder painted the picture of a lion; heuce i (lie name of the machine. A description of i the engine, published when it was brought to tills country, says: "It is a nine-horse power, < having a boiler HiJ^ feet long, with two cylinders, each of three ieet stroke. It is ca leu la led to propel from sixty to eighty tons, at live * miles per hour." ; Some idea of the perils Incurred by Horatio Allen In that famous first rtitc on a Incomo- I li ve, can be obtained by reading the following i extract from his own account of it. He says: 'The roud had been built In the summer, the . structure was of hemlock timber, and the , rails of large dimensions, notched on to caps 1 placed far apart. The timbers had been warped and cracked from exposure to the sun. Af- ' (Of ul.Alll "rfill r.inf r\f hi f I ??!?

The Impression was ( very general that ttie iron monster would eiiiicr break down tlie road or that-it would L leave the track at the cur*c and plunge Into i' the creek. My reply to such apprehensions J was that it was too late lo consider prohahlii- 1 ties i -l" such occurrences. As I placed my hand ' on !he throttle valve handle 1 was undecided whether 1 would move slowly or with a fair s degree of speed; hut, bclievim; that the road would prove safe, and pfelerrlng that if we did go down to go down handsomely and 1 without any evidence of timidity, I started witti considerable velocity, passed (lie curve in safety, and was soon out of hearing of tin* 1 cheers of the largo assemblage present. At ' the end of two or three miles I reversed the 1 valves and returned without accident to the place of starling, having thus made the (lint l railroad trip by locomotive on the Western * hemisphere." 1 - - ^ I.awlCMSnoss?For nnd Against.

Al- , ready from these causes tli1 honor ahd dignity of the Statu are deplorably compromised, it is hiiih time that men who write, speuk nnd print to naider- J ate their syeophantiu laudations ?f demucoghes and unworthy ollicials ns well as other "resources" of j South t'liru'iiia. .Iiiryinen, editoiv, publishers and ollice-holders in the Slate are, wo think, to lie l l ulled more than ten times their number of other ( citizens for the murders and other lawlessness in * South Carolina. 2 This lamentable condition of the country is. direct- 1 Iv and indirectly, the I gitimate fruits <>f the late 2 civil war, which for the time was supported by both i the civil and ecclesiastical powers of the land.
