At ten o’clock the Asoory cadeU,of Green oast Is, commanded by Captain Wheeler and numbering a full sized company, were received at tbs union jjepot by the Indianapolis drum corps, and escorted to the Journal building, where they disbanded to await the hour of assembling this afternoon. During the forenoon the arrangement committee held a short session and completed preparations, and at one o'clock the procession began forming on East Market street, right resting towards Alabama, in the following order: City band. German Veterans, Jacob Scholl, eaptain. Artillery. Indianapolis drum corps, David Stout, cap-

The column was alow in formation and the line of inarch when taken up was south to Washington, west to Meridian and north to Tinker, where carriagee and street can were in waiting for transportation to Crown HilL Tbe opening ceremonies at Crown Hill were music by the city band. Prof. C. Vogt; prayer by tbe Rev. J. B. Cleaver; song: ‘‘Above the stars,” Liaderkrsnz and M&mnerchor societies, Prof. E. Knodel, director. Senator Morton then spoke briefly concerning the day and the remembrances connected with its observance, and after the conclusion and a song by tbe Cecilian glee club. Rev. Mr. Reed, of the First church, delivered the following address: BEV. MY Roy W. BEKD’S ADDRK8S. The soldier has ever been very near to the public heart. We all like to see a man take a risk.

Bnt we must distinguish fool courage and courage. Let risk be coupled with duty

a ragged drunken sailor plunges in to save a verson whom he never saw until he saw him drowning and is washed ashore dead, ail the aiternoon the crowd gather with a sort of homage around him whom in the morning they considered a nuisance.

That man’s name lives with heat in it that kindlss love. Jo n Maynard, burned to a crisp at the wheel standing steady, illuminates Lika Lbamplain. Tha captain of the Northfleet saying to bis wile. “Good-bye, my dear. 1 am going to see this thing through,'' is not common devotion. These iteries of men reconcile one to being human. They ennobla the race to which we belong with absolute beauty. Tbe man of the battle and the woman of the hospital walk together the uplands of fame. It has often bean repeated that the pen is mightier than tbe sword. Thatsounds wed but except the sword writes first, how little far the pen to dol Take the battle out of hiatory and poetry and what bare you left? Warts not tne cause of nobleness but the occasion of it. It wakes it, leads it oat. Men do not know how brave they are nor woman how leving.till a great cause cornea along. Then they flash out, charcoal into a diamond, common water into wine. Blew oat the siege ot Troy and where are your .ffinieda and Iliads, With tbe crusades go the crusader's hymn, his wondrous story. Row will you ever write the declaration ef independence except the sword he drawn? Could the proclamation ot emancipatioji be written except behind great guns? Yon take the flash of blue steel out ot Norman history—the light of battle, the song of the sword—and it Is Ivanhoe without the tournament. The earth it flat and dark, flavorless as an imported banana. Tbe student of history goes to sleep over tbe peaceful chapters where peddlers abounded and men decayed.

The fiault, where tbe Uase water is tossed and beaten into foam: where tbe Jesuit builds his mission, thither the summer travel tends. Take that fine picture of Marshal Neyout of our vision; it is the field of Waterloo. The day is lost, the cense is lost. The Old Guard is melting away in tbe fire af converging guns like rnow in the furnace. The shameful flow ot defeat is drifting past him. Uis heroes killed under him, hia epaulet half out away by the sabre stroke, bis budge of the eagle split by a bullet. Bloody! reeking with sweat, foam upon his hpe, a broken sword in his hand, saving, “Come and see a marshal of France die upon the field of battlel" We can not well spare that oicture. Takeaway from the historian Leonidas, Scinio, Caesar, Richsrd. Cromwell, Nelson and Warren—blot out Napoleon, give h m a fruit stall—fill up the pass of Thermopylae,bury therockof Salamia, level Bunker Hill and Mission Ridge. Iron out the wrinkles out of Kensaw, keep all of the flags of the nation new and clean and then ask tha historian to write and the poet to sing. What stir ot the Ucart is there in a new flag. Not until in the smoke of battle it nas become a blessed rag is it lilted up into a symbol. Then tbe boys love it. Tnen the bo:

The right of trial by jury, every right of man, has bean thrust from unwilling bands by the pressure of iron.

Let us save our contempt for those who played and lost and sneaked out of payment. Invite Jeff Davis to address one of our agricultural fairs, tbe man who never took a risk, ran away with twenty wagon loads of money—money of dead men, orphans and widows; betrayed his country, betrayed the confederacy, betrayed hia own sex. The cold-blooded, deliberate scoundrel, tried at lut to be his own mother-in-law, and failed u usual. His is the only crave of a rebel that I should like to decorate.

As a rule tho volunteer did not die, but o/ice mastered the disagreeable, knew not the impossible, faced the inevitable and held li'e. until it was struck out of them. They needed elastic souls. Sleeping peacefully on tha reserve what dreams may come to the man in the blue overcoat? Peace, friends, home. But to wake to “Third relief fall in.” to come into place and to go out tn the darkness to the forks of the road and stand at the invisible and challenge tbe wind is far from gay.

You know thorn. But it did this: . It checked for a season the timidity and over carefullness of our civilisation. It made a man stand oa his own feet, and squarely on both of them.

Men will never feel so dependent again. Tho war bred self-reliance and a self that could be relied on. To-day the soldier of the war is the better maa of peace. Those wh* escaped death and disability are ia th* firoatof the army of the working men of Amerioa. Widely deployed over manv states they are in the ambulance of none. My -heart goes preudly out to salute them. They carry themselves well. Of those whose lot it was to die the death of battle, of fever of prison, those who died there and those who came home brought their death with them. Of those who slept far off, buried hardly bv strangers, and those sent home tenderly and buried here under tears and flowers, what shall I say? They were generous; they made no bargain with ns that we should remember them with headstone, or flower or word. Thoir eyes are dim to their own glory, their ears are stopped to

their praise.

They went into the vineyard feeling that the Lord of the vineyard would do what wu right. W* honor ourselves by remembering them. I hear that there is some talk of forgetting them. Well if any man thinks so let him do the dying himself. ‘ The grave's real chill is feeling that life is wasted.” The children are, very observing. They have mad a good deal about love of country. They know what barren soil is they are losing now to see it these things are so. Suppose they see a soldier’s grave smoothed and sown with forget me’s, weeds and- thorns of remembrance while the brazen monument of Vanderbilt tower*. Wifi they not say with Falstaff “the next priae*. yon may kill yoarself." I want the children to know that

there is a difference in graves.

We do a right and even a prudent thing not to forget a benefit, but to remember it, not grudgingly, but gladly and proudly. If you are going to forgot anybody, forget and plant under thistle* those who diw meanly, th* shirks of tbe nation. In tbeso days of low tide it ia refreshing to think of those who are sale and shrouded in sweet sleep-of duty done. They have exalted American mamhood in the face ef all the world and gone on high. Tho ranks being opened they have marohed through and taken their plaoe on the extreme right of Plutarch’s battalion. *■ We rive them “rosemary that’s for remembrance, snd pansies that’s for thought*,” and thank God that He has in Hi* goodness contrived a language for love, carved a beauty for ashes. The flowers on their graves will fill up what is behind band in this poor wreath of words which I have hastily braided as well as I •onld, and now lay not on their heads as a crown, bnt at their feet as my worship^ The remainder of tha ceremonies em-

The Sentinel and Journal have recently published 1 editorial paragraphs endorsing a certain earpet boose in this city a* the largest in the United States. Have the editors of those papers personally inspected tbe varions carpet housn in the etty, that they sneak so positively? Or have they gimpiv gold their endorsement for a price? It paya to look around. Big advertisement* with prices, unlea* bated on fteta, don’t count for much—they only indicate the price for which mean articles of the lowest grade of good* ean be made. There are ia th:* city two equally reteectable bouses— Roll k Morris and AtbertOall—either of wbieh can compete in the matter of stock and price* with the eatablishment editorally puffed in th* Sentinel and Journal. Three paper* misle td their readers when they publish paid advertisement* a* editorial matter. Fair Piny, Gentlemen.
