man or men who would divide or destroy or |
retard the prosperity and progress of the na- \
tion whose corner stone was laid in the blood
of ouri fathers one hundred years ago today.
Moved by this prejudice, fourteen
years ago, I opposed the men who preferred |
disunion to death. True to this prejudice I
to-day despise the men who would for the sake :
of self or party stand in the way of recon- >
ciliation and a united country. The distiu-!
guished soldier who is your chief guest to-day j
never came nearer to the hearts of the people ,
than when he said "Let us have peace," and, !
sir, the only really belligerent people in the |
couutry to-day, North and South, are those j
who, while the war lasted, followed carefully j
the paths of peace. Do not believe that the
^ light and dirty froth which is blown north- j
ward and scattered over the land, oftentimes j
for malicious purposes, represents the true !
current of public opiuion at the South. Look
to their heroes, their leaders, their Gordons, !
their Lees, their Johnstons, their Lamar, I
Ransom and Riplev, and tell me if you 6nd j

iu uieir utterance anytmng out renewea loyalty
and devotion to a united country. These
are the men, as our great and good Governor
Audrew told you at the close of the war?
these are the men by whom and through whom
you must restore the South, instead of the
meaner men for whom power is only a synonym
for plunder. As I begged you last summer,
I eutreat you again, do not repel the returning
love of these men by suspicion or indifference.
If you cannot in forgiveness "kill the
fatted calf," do not with coldness "kill the
prodigal." * * *
As au American I am as proud of the men
who charged so bravely with Pickett's division
on our lines at Gettysburg,as I am of the
men who bravely met and repulsed them
there. Men cannot always choose the right
cause, but when having chosen that which
conscience dictates, they are ready to die for
it, if they justify not their cause, they at least
ennoble themselves; and the men who for conscience
sake fought against their government
at Gettysburg ought easily to be forgiven by
the sons of the men who for conscience sake 1
fought against the government at Lexington
and Bunker Hill. Oh ! sir, as Massachusetts !
was first in war, so let her be first in peace,
and she shall forever be first in the hearts of 1
her countrymen. And let us here resolve !
that true to her ancient motto while in war,
ease petit placidam, in peace she demands not
only for herself but for every inch of this
great country, sub libertate quietam.
concord or alamance?
In regard to the claim that the battle of
Concord was the first armed resistance of the
American colonists to British aggression, Mr.
James Wood Davidson, formerly of South
Carolina, and well known as a gentlomen of ;
literary attainments, contributes the following
to the New York World:
To the Editor of the World:?Sir :?In ,
your leader yesterday morning on "Local
Centennial Celebrations," you speak of the
battle of Concord, Massachusetts, on the 19th
of April, 1775, as in one sense the natal day
of American independence. You define that <
"one sense" as "the first armed resistance j
made by their (American readers') forefathers .
to the aggressions of the power beyond the
sea." j
My own studies in American history have I
not brought me to the same conclusion with <
you in regard to this fact. I entirely agree
with you as to the "one sense" in which you
accept the phrase "natal day of Americau-iudependeuce,"
because it seems to me that the
"first armed resistance" to British troops,
rather than the formal in-doors declaration of
independence, really marks the birth of the .
secession of the American colonies.
I have no doubt that immense impetus was
given, as Jefferson suggests, to the cause of
secession by the Lexington-Concord fight; but (
I neither suppose nor do I imagine that Jef- ,
ferson believed that that affair was in any (
sense the cause or the occasion or even the
beginning of the conflict which resulted in i
American independence. I am aware that
Peter Parley says that "at Lexington the !
conflict rose but Peter seems to have writ- '
ten his jingle mainly for the delectation of
New England youth.
The one point of difference between your fact
and mine is that I understand that the first
armed resistance toook place at a time and
in a place different from those about to be
celebrated on the 19th of this April.
There are three points at which we may put 1
the natal day?when the first armed resistance
to the British regular soldiers was made
by colonists iu a body ; when the second Con- |
tinental Congress, on the 10th of May, 1775, j
determined upon armed resistance, and appointed
Washington to be "Coraraander-in
Chief of all the forces raised or to be raised <
for the defense of the coloniesand when
the Continental Congress, on the 4th of July,
1776, at Philadelphia, adopted the Declaration
of Independence.
You accept the first of these. So do I.
You cousider the Lexington-Concord skirmish
as that first resistance. It seems to me that
the skirmishing at Alamance Creek, in Alamance
county, N. C., on the 16th of May,
1771, was that first armed resistance made by
our forefathers to the aggressions of the power
beyond the sea. The skirmish arose in somewhat
this way : Governor Tryon at Newbern
built him a mausion, costing some $75,000,
and levied a tax on his citizens of that Carolina
colony to pay the sura. The people
formed military companies, called Regulators,
for the purpose of resisting the collection of
*1"- L/iart A/v*y\r\or\iAr> IHAHA nrmorl
IUC UlA'ICVJ, auu iiicoo buiiipauico ucio ai uiuu
and drilled. They went into camp at Alamance
Creek, and thither the British troops
within Tryon's command were sent to disperse
them. A skirmish ensued in which the Regulators
were defeated \Tith a loss of some three
hundred men.
Iu the two skirmishes, at Alamance Creek
in 1771 and at Lexington and Concord in
1775, the assailants were the same, British
regulars; the opponents were the same, organized
rebels; the cause was the same, to
disperse the rebels and to defeat the opposition
; the results were the same, save that at
Alamance Creek the rebels lost three times as
many of their number as those at Lexington
and Concord lost.
The organization of societies to resist British
tyranny had been formed a year or two before
the Alamance Creek fight. The famous
Sons of Liberty, both North and South, were
such. The tea affairs both iu Charleston and
in Boston had occurred before that time, and
it was a year after the British government
had sent over troops to keep the colonists in
subjection.
I raise this historical point, not in a spirit
of captiousness, but with the desire to learn
what is the truth about the matter. New

the Revolutionary War that it may be per- j
fectly natural for her to greatly raaguify the
very few skirmishes that took "place on her J
soil; but is that a reason why the rest of the j
world should forget their lessons in history?'

NEWS ITEMS.
General Andrew Jackson Hamilton died iu
Austin, Texas, on the 12th instant, from the i
bursting of a blood vessel, while in a fit of |
consumptive coughing. He was prominent:
in Texas politics, and in 1859 was elected to !
Congress as a Union man, being a violent opponent
of secession. During the war, he held
a Major-General's commission in the Federal 1
army, but had no command. In 1865, he was
appointed Provisional Governor of Texas, j
and was afterward a Judge of the Supreme j
Court of that State, and a member of the j
convention which framed the present Consti- ,
tution of Texas.
A quarterly circular of failures for the first
three months of the year, just issued by Dun,'
? Barlow & Co., of New York, presents a more
favorable view of the trade of the country '
than might have been looked for. There is I
evidently a wonderful elasticity in our com-!
inercial affairs, and a favorable outlook for a !
revival of prosperity. The figures show 1733 '
failures, with gross liabilities of 838,873,000,
being only about 873,000 more than one quarter
of the amount of the previous year, and
nearly 820,000,000 less than for a corresponding
period in 1873.
At a meeting of ex-Con federate soldiers in
Memphis, Tenu., to arrange for decorating the
graves of Confederates on May 22, a resolution
was unanimously adopted asking all exFederal
soldiers to participate iu the ceremonies.
Among those present at the meeting
were ex-President Jefferson Davis, ex-Governorlsham
G. Harris and Generals Colton,
Green and Gordon.
Col. Edward M. Yerger, who died suddenly
in Baltimore on Thursday, was formerly
a prominent citizen of Mississippi, and served
on the staff of Gen. Breckinridge during the
civil war. In June, 1869, he killed, in Jackson,
Lieut-Col. Crane of the U. S. Army, because
that officer, as acting Mayor, had caused
his piano to be seized for the non-payment of
taxes levied for street improvements. An
pflforf was made to trv Col. Yerp-er for the of
fense by a military court, but the question of
authority remained undecided until the State
came under civil control. He subsequently
removed to Baltimore, where he was for some
years past proprietor and editor of the Evening
Journal.
Boston, New York and Baltimore have each
received a portion of the new silver coinage.
They are presumed to be the firstlings of
that coming tentative resumption of specie
payments, when the government will pay out
coin in small sums, and give us hopes of the
day of a more perfect currency by the clinking
of silver in our pockets. All the mints
in the country are busy with silver coinage,
and when the amount on hand reaches eight
or ten millions, say about the 4th of July
next, the experiment will probably be tried.
The Supreme Court of Michigan has decided
that the consent of the parties is all that
is requisite to make a marriage valid, and
that no ceremony is necessary?the same doctrine
that has already been laid down in sev- !
eral States.
Georgia papers boast of "the ugliest and
smartest set of representatives that any State !
will have in Congress." They are represented
to be, jointly and severally, physically puny
and ugly in a unanimous and awful degree.

"music hath charmsT&cT"
WITH pleasure I inform all who desire to give
their children a chance for a musical education,
but whose means are very limited, that I
have made arrangements with tne ceieoraieu
"Mason <fe Hamlin Organ Co.," to supply persons
with their unrivaled instrument, eitner at lowest
factory prices, for cash, or on monthly or quarterly
payments, upon whatis called the lease principle.
Thus any one by paying only a moderate
sum for the use of the instrument, can, at any
time,give it up or become purchaser; the amount
alreaay paid being applied to the purchase. Or a
person having paid the rent for four years, becomes
the owner of the Organ without further
payment. Call and enquire for particulars and
see the new styles, at my Photo gallery, in the
Adickes' building, where I may be founa during
all business hours, either to show you a sample or
to wait upon you if you want anything in the
Photographic line as heretofore.
