Duncan ys a gallant soldier who had been at “the Hashing of the guns,” a distinguished citizen, a cultured, all round Christian gentlemen, a good old rebel, and one whom we all loved and delighted to honor. Col. Butler made a tasteful, point- „ _ . rv • , <- i i i (■ i »-n ed and patriotic speech. Being a A. Great Display of Llmbreilas^and Pa.ice— young man. i*orn since tiie knowledge of course could be drawn ' only from history arid tradition. He spoke of the partisan histories that hail been written by enemies of the South, and the impression they were calculated (o produce in the minds 1 of our southern youth, and urged the young people to be true to the mem ory of their ancestors, and to draw inspiration from the story of their sublime courage and heroic deeds. Maj. Duncan followed and held tin- audience for about one hour in almost breathless interest. He paid a noble tribute to the memory of Capt. Juke Carpenter, in honor of whom tin Cutup is named, the hereof ~.vo wars, the man who volunteered when lie knew what war meant. He spoke in lijigh praise ot the women of the south, and portrayed ki living colors the scenes of parting between them and their brothers, husbands and lovers. His picture of the Confederate sol dier in the trenches of Petersburg u: a line so thin that ids nearest com rade was fifteen feet away, with the enemy in front massed in heavy com pact columns, three to four deep, the Confederate hungry and in rags, yet grim, hopeful, and confident to tin ! last, was one ol those pictures that I impress themselves on the heart as ! well as tiie imagination; aud his de- i script ion of the raggei veteran oi. the picket line, loading, advancing. | bring, and whooping. \i ;i:i; an ah- ' misti'k iian rnoci.wm::j> was a I thing to tiring smiles through tears. 1 h ■ sj e ker took the high r ground ■ that the S mth was the real victor af ter alk it was customary to sa; that her cause was lost at Appomat tox. but the wonderful developments of thirty-odd years had ubundunth demonstrated that Lee and not (Irani have triumphed.
