pied. This much, however, did not satisfy the impetuous and brave lead® of the armv He hurried onward to fight the SJJmy when and where he could overtake him After arduous marches aBa.coan££arfh«, it bo fell out that the "Amy of the Cumberland" became lnterlscod with the enemy, in & singula* manner, and vraa assaulted by the reinforced army of the Bebels, in the valley of the Cfaickamauga, "river of death" as its name signifies in the fanciful etymology of the Indians. The farious battle, of thoae two bright September days, fought in the thickets along the Chickamauga, waa one of the deadly and most stubborn of the entire war. It was the last gener* al eugagement. fought by the "Army of tbo Cumberland" as an independent army, Although not decisive as a pitched battle, yet it accomplished the purpose of preventing the rebel occupancy of Chattanooga and forced him to undertake to reduce the platfe by regular siege.
The toils and Bufferings of the faithful army, while beleaguered within the defenses at Chattanooga, have become historic. After a time ''the army of the Tennessee,'' under Gen. Sherman and two corps of the army of the Potomac under Gen. Hooker, came to the relief of the army of the Cumberland and to open the communications with its base of supplies.
How occurred another and final change of commanders. General Eosecrana was relieved and the command devolved upon Gen. Geo. H. Thomas, who entered upon his duties under the most unfavorable auspices, and found himself, without warning, at the head of the besieged and half-starved garrison. The only cheerful thing which met the new coromand«r was the pluck and determination of the troops to hold the position at all hazard?, despite the enemy without and starvation, disease and death within. This indomitable spirit waa subsequently placed in terse and soldierly words by Gen. Thomas in his famous declaration, in behalf of his army, "to bold the place till we starv edl"
Gen. Grant, then in command of the military Division of the Mississippi, removed his field headquarters to Chattanooga, and gave personal supervision to the future operations in that vicinity.— In two months the valley of the Tennessee waa cleared of the enemy. Lookout was stormed, Mission .Ridge was carried by assault, the siege of Knoxville was raised and the enemy driven southward within the mountains of Georgia. In the achievement of all tbeSe glorious successes, the army of the Cumberland took conspicuous part, and the names of all tba battles which produced them are inscribed on its standards.
At the opening of the next spring, the grand campaign of Atlanta was undertaken by Gen. Sherman. The three corps comprizing the army of the Cumberland were actively engaged in all the battles and marches of tbis eventful campaign. They made part of the lines of battle and assaulting columns during all the well known operations against the renowned "Gate City," and, after its capture, the old army divided, never asjain to meet.— Two of the corps, the fourteenth and twentieth, marched with Sherman, in bis modern anabasis, down to the sea, the other—the "Old Fourth" retraced its steps to assist in fighting Hoed at franklin and Nashville, and to be "in at the death" of the rebellion in the west. Perhaps no severer tests of manhood andporsonal bravery were tried during the war, than those at Franklin aud Nashville, and sureiy no cleaner victory was won than at the latter place. It broke the power of the rebellion in the Mississippi valley and cut ofT all hope of success in the west. After the battle at Nashville the remnant of the Army of the Cumberland went to Texas, there to assist in wiping out the Inst relics of armed rebellion on the sunny plains of the south. "With the end of 18G5, the last of the Army of ilie Cumberland was mustered out, after an existenoe of mora than four years as a military organization in the field.
The faint sketch ot the campaigns and battles just givon, conveys but a feeble idea of its services and toils. It affords no conception of the noble and heroic ac tions of the distinct regiments, brigades, divisions and corps which comprised the army, nor of the brave and cbivalric deeds of individual officers and men which cast a halo of brilliancy always about its pathway. The exploits of the old array were great in themselves and great in their consequences, and abounded with brilliant examples of high courage and devoted zeal. They should "neither be disfigured nor forgotton," but are worthy of enduring fame and a conspicuous place in history. Says Napier, in reviewing the Peninsular war, "much injustice haa been dono and much justice left undone by those authors who havo hitherto writ ten concerning this war." The same may be said In respect to the war of the Rebel lion. Its history has not yet been fully or truthfully written, and perhaps never maybe, but whenever it ip, great credit and high renown must be allotted to the Army of the Cumberland, as one of the grand armies of the republic, for its gi gantic Btrokes toward the suppression of the rebellion. The graves of the dead He thick along its southern pathway, mutp. yet solemn and convincing testimony of its prowess and devotion to the cause of theHnion. It will be held in after times as no small honor to have fought for the government, in the war of the rebellion, and not the least to have followed the fortunes of the Army of the Cumberland.
PECULIARITIES AS A DISTINCT ARMY. No sketch of the army of the Cumber land would be complete, however hastily drawn, which merely traced its campaigns, marches and battles but omitted to allude to the spoci»l characteristics which marked it. Your society, in stating the objects of its formation, haa given prominence to two of these charactertics, "unanimity of loyal sentimentJ and kind and cordial feeling."
The army of the Cumberland was loyal to the government, not only ia the act of bearing arms in its deforce, but in every thought, feeling, word and action. There were no under-currents of doubt, complaint, disrespect or treachery toward the constituted authorities of tho nation.— There was no hesitation or misgiving about the justness of the warin which the army was engaged. Officers and men alike were inspired with an unswerving spirit of deVotUSii to the national cause. Abroad and intelligent patriotism nerv ed their hearts and steeled the swords of those who followed the banners of that army. This feeling, prominent from the first, gr«w with the growth and strengthened with the strength of tho army until it became a livo, deep Rnd abiding sentiment. It leavened the whole army as a mass and gave surprising unanimity to Us purposes and acts. No toil, hardship or suffering could overcome this sentiment no enemy in the field nor rebel sympathizers in tho rear could shake it. When the enemy hurled his heavy columns on the front ha was repulsed by steady lines of bayonets, the sharp rattle of musketry and the roar of well-manned artillery. Whso treason ran riot at home brave words and glorious deeds came thundering back from the army in the field. This steadfast purpose was of great worth to the government and stood in lieu of thousands of armed men, in the northwest, who would otherwise have been required to have protected the fam* ilies and friends of the soldiers behind tnem. the least faltering, on the part of the "Army of tho Cumberland," in loyalty to its flag, at one period, might have precipitated a civil war northward of the Ohio. It is a matter of history that a secret, treasonable association existed in certain of the Northwestern States, during the war, which numbered among its members many names of distinction, the object of which was to sow seeds of discord in the armies of the government, to release rebel prisoners, kid
nap or ldll loyal officers and promote the cause of the Confederacy by a counterrevolution in the North. It is known that systematic and artful plots ware attempted to procure deaertfons from the "Amy of the Cumberland" and to thin its numbers in every possible way. To the credit of the men who composed that army, it may be said, that, so far as they were concerned, all these treasonable schemes perished. They scorned the approaches of treacherous northern sympatizers and treated them with less regard than the open foemen, who met tbem in arms, fighting for the rebel flag.
The Army of the Cumberland was renowned for the kindness and cordiality of feeling which prevailed throughout all its organizations and existed between its individual members. Harmony, there always was, but more than this, there
Tew up that true friendship and real rotherhood in arms, which is bred only among brave men in the field, by common dangers and exposures. This kindly feeling, commendable in all armies, must be remembered by you as a prominent trait In the Army of the Cumberland. It existed to a great degree in all our Western armies ind is one of the pleas ant memories of the war. Friendships and attachments were there farmed between officers, and men and individuals of both classes which nothing but death can sever. Every one who served in the old armyjean recall the respectful bearing, and unselfish attentions, which were the general rule of intercourse There was, too a real cordiality and heartiness ia all tbis, far above and exceeding the requirements of military authority or etiquette, which sprang from the spontaneous instincts of true men embarked in a common undertaking of peril and adventure. Jealcasiea.biokerings or improper rivalries among officers, were almost wholly unknown, disagreements between different organizations never occurred. There was a faithfulness between subordinate and superior officers unusual in the experi ence of armies. Military law and usage ordinarily prevent open and improper comment by subordinate officers or men on the motives or acts of their superiors, but there area thousand ways by which unfaithful service may be rendered and, for the time being, pass for true. Bad men infest every army, to a certain extent, and not unfrequently creep into official positions where they can for a while find scope for arrogance or brutality. Happily such examples were very rare in "the Army of the Cumberland." Its officers as a class were courteous gentlomen and despised alike the brute, the "carpct knigbt" and the martinet.—
The rank and file of the army was composed largely of intelligent and en ergetic men, who became soldiers from the promptings of patriotism They did not seek the army as a make shift, or an occupation, and brought to it the earnest convictions and correct hab its of successful and respectable citizens Hence there was less rancor towards tho inhabitants of hostile territory, less plunder aod pillage, less lawlessness, straggling and crime than is common in ar mies otherwise constituted. The kindliness of the army of the Cumberland was not confined alone to its internal associa tions. It exhibited itself constantly towards an unprotected enemy. Moderation and justice marked its relations towards the helpless and innocent victims of the war encountered in its numerous campaigns. Now that the rougher pas sions, engendered by the war, are passing away, and the counsels of P&ace are to prevail, every soldier must feel gratified that such humane conduct marked the course of his old army. It is a pleasing reflection, in reverting to the uuavoid able horrors of a civil strife, that the severities inflicted by any army fell far short of what the harsher laws of war justified.
Another feature of the Army of the Cumberland was a high military and moral discipline. This quality naturally followed, from the others alluded to, as well as from the character and labors of its different commanders. A high and stern code of discipline would be expected from such commanders ns Anderson Sherman, Buell, Bosecrans aod Thomas all of whom were educated to arms, and had made the business of war the study of a life time. They well understood the truth of the maxim "war is not a con jeclural art," and constantly labored to promote that thorough discipline which alone can render armies powerful or effective. It is true discipline and constant duty that makes the soldier, and this is woTth far more than exceptional acts of bra very. It is discipline which begets en durance, confidence, courage, and power, in|an army, and without it numbers be come ponderous and useless. Every sol dier and officer of intelligence under stands the advantage of discipline, and however hard its exact requirements may have seemed to raw volunteers, at first enlistment, they soon knew that, in war, it was but another name for safety and strength. It economizes life, ensures success, gives rapidity, certainty and vigor to sold iery without it an army is little else than an armed mob, daDgerous only to itself, and becomes a ready prey to stampede and defeat. The Army of the Cumberland attained an enviable proficiency in all the tactical knowledge, and other acquirements requisite for good service, but in addition to this, it cultivated and enforced a high order of discipline. Offences against good order be came rare, and when discovered, were promptly and severely punished. The officers were sustained and upheld by the men in the enforcement of all the rules of war. This sentiment, prevail iog throughout the army, served to keep the men firm to and their colors, yet to preserve a good and healthful general discipline.
Another quality of the Army of the Cumberland was a great degree of mill tary enthusiasm. The morale of the army was uniformly good. As a body, it always had zeal, spirit, hope and confidence. These qualities gave it, not only endurance, but superadded enthusiasm.— No reverses broke its spirit or diminished its zeal. Its tenacity and ability to enduro reverses were sorely tried at Stone River. Its spirit and enthusiasm were brilliantly displayed, in contending against heavy odds, at Chickamauga. The officers and men, as a class,were always enthusiasts in asserting the justness of their cause, and in their steady belief of its ultimate triumph. This confidence gave the army great power in the con. flict of battle and rendered examples of bad conduct in the face of the enemy, either on the part of individuals or organizations, an exception to the general rule. Another effect of this feeling was to prevent disquiet, home-sickness—that bane of the volunteer soldier—desertion and all the train of evil consequences which flow therefrom.
Another quality which was constantly observable iu the Army of the Cumberland was iu etprit de corps. Pride in army organization ia always a most desira ble trait in military life. The officer or private who can sink all individuality in tin name and success of his company, regiment, division or army i8, by the sauio degree in which he does this, so much the better auldier. Tbis pride of the soldjor in the army to which he belongs gives it force and vigor—ennobles the men and operates as a strong incentive to individual valor. This animating spirit of the collective body was a con'spiruoua trait in the army of the Cumberland. There were none of its regiments or batteries who were not chary of tbo good name of their army aod proud cf tne victories and and services achieved by it.
These were some of the leatures of the 'Army of the Cumberland" which were ordinarily to be remarked. They, however, by no means constitute all. They were qualities pooeased in common by nil our armies in the feld, and it may be by other* to a degree equal to or superior that of one to which allusion
is made. It is true, that they ertkttfl ia it, and by referring to this fact no invidious comparisons are intended.
TZACHDTOS TBX WAR.
The war of the rebellion, like 0 sectional outbreak!, ie not without ^ts in* stractions. Remits which folkwra civil war are seldom apparent at its immedi* ate close. Its teachings are not always impressed on the generation which baa lived through the eventful scenes which spring from it Time is requited to soften the tone and passions of the contend ing parties, to heal up the wounds of the nation and to show the permanent eon sequences which are produced. The late rebellion is nb. exception to the rule. It brought about changes in our country and Government, and among our people, which will be as lasting aa the Bepublic itself. It is impossible now to allude, in the most cursory manner, to all the revo lutions in business, finance, political views, personal life and habits, which came from the war. They are many and are full of instruction, regret or foreboding, according to the temperament iu which they are read and spirit in which they are studied. Vast changes have, already, followed the war and its teachings are grand, solemn and wonderful.
It overturned many of the accepted ideaB of our people—not a few fundamental axioms in politics and numerous precon ceived notions in business and commerce.
One of the grandest effects which flow ed from the Bebellion was the establishment of universal personal liberty in our country. The theory of our government has always been that of complete indi vidual freedom and protection, but yet since its foundation, slavery and oppression had continually existed under its sanction. At the commencement of the war, notwithstanding the boasted freedom of the United States, four millions of persons were held in bondage, used and traded as chattels and subjected to cruelties such as were tolerated in no other civilized country. The war bmst the shackles from these millions of poor creatures and bade them look up, assert the intelligence the great creator had given them, and strive to become worthyand useful citizens. It made our coun try not only free in nance but absolutely so. Henceforth the world may truly look to the United States as the land of the free.
And the home of the brave With the war has gone the groat curse of slavery and with this are passing away those deep-rooted prejudices of caste and color which have been peculiar only to our country.
The war exploded the great southern maxim of commerce, "cotton is King 1" This staple, hitherto, held high place, it is true, in all our great commercial relations, domestic and foreign, and gave to our Gulf States a certain power which was asserted to be supreme. Cotton, and its surroundings, and the ideas which clusterod around its production, had mil to do with bringing about the war but,before it was fought through, the world learned that cotton was not all there was of the United States. Cotton, though great power, as formerly used, was not "King"—the maxim, asserting it to be so was a fallacy, but it required the war to teach us this fact
Another truth, established by the Rs bell Ion, was that all the chivalry and manhood of the nation was not com pressed into that part southward of "Ma son and Dixon's line." It taught us that there were valor, patriotism and vitality elsewhere, and, that too, sufficient to preserve the government and to overturn the most powerful rebellion which has ever existed.
Another fact, settled by the war, was the mastery of the federal government The claim of the supremacy of the State over the general government, in matters of conflict, and the doctrine of paramount allegiance, owed by tho rfitizens, to the latter, were fully overturned. The falsi ty of such assumptions is now understood The right of secession ia also abandoned aod will nevermore be asserted, at the point of the sword. The war determined the federal government as the great can tral controlling power which shall, for all time to come, regulate within the limits of the written constitution, the various States of the Union. Before the Rebellion, the great mass ot citizens scarcely realized the existence of tho federal government or had any daily evi dence of its being. It levied no personal taxes upon them, restrained their liberties in no way, nor exacted anything from them. They knew that Congress held annual sessions, that a Piesident was elected every four years, the Cabinet changed, that the government transport ed their letters and that it held a court in their State. The only officer with whom they came in contact was the post master. Comparatively few, away irom the sea-board or the larger cities, had ever seen a custom house, light-house, navy yard, man-of-war, fiie of soldiers or anything else, except the natienal flag, which represented the physical be ing of the general governmeut. It laid its burdens so lightly on the citizen that they were hardly known. The war, however taught our people the existence of a federal power and its ability for selfprotection and the general defence.
These and other similar lessons were taught to our countrymen by the grim and horrid experience of the war. The soldiers, also, who were engaged in survived its battles, and were honorably discharged, received au experimental tuition which they will not soon forget. They stood nobly to their colors, in the tide of battle, and did uot desert them in camp or march. Dangers, difficulties, or suffering could not drive them from their standards, while there was a single armed foe in the field. Now, that the war is over, they do not propose to desert the cause for which they fought, for they still owe their government allegiance and fealty. While they may no longer mea Bure arms with an enemy, in battle array, they must still, as citizens, render homage and support to the constituted authorities They naturally look for the results of their victory. As honorable soldiers they desire the return of peace and the restoration of order as oue of the first fruits. If this is not attained, then the war has beon fought in vain, and all its carnage and cost have been made for nought. The survivors of the Union armies, with one accord, join their late comman der in chief in hi* magnanimous and sol dierly demand "Let us have peacel" The people of the nation have re-echoed this demand, and have strongly emphasized it, by the recent election, of our grand chieftain, to the Presidency of the United Staies. This great tribute to the soldier element of the country proclaims, in thunder tones, tho determination of all classes to have that peace which is demanded by those who fought the war as well aa their intention tp honor those who were engaged in it.
A further duty impressed on returned soldiers, by the education of the war, comes in the shape of an obligation to stand by one another. All other things being equal, there can be no wrong to the public in the soldier giving preference to his comrade, when his interests come in competition with the citizen who did not go to-the war. He would be false to the acknowledged, though an pledged ties which bind him to these with whom he has suffered and fought— false to the memory of his fallen companions—false to the associations which gather around and hallow his life as a Boldier, if he did not do eo. As soldiers, you kept the touch of the elbow when in line, so stand together now as citizens I The living public will honor you for such conduct, and posterity will not fail to praise your faithfulness.
Akin to this is another duty learned by the sohk«, of the Republic,-to support none but loyal o$cial stations The man who too* his n*.

It is an insult to |ho aoldfor who baa returned from the war, with aa honorable record, and who has brains, to ask him to contribute to iaMall uaregenerate and unrepentant traitors or their sympathisers into place and power.
The war of the Bebelion was fought by volunteer soldiery. The policy of our Government has always been opposed to a large staading army. As a result of snch course, the entire land force of the nation, at the commencement of the war, did not exceed fifteen thousand effoctlve men—barely sufficient for light frontier service. Our navy, too, was small and scattered over distant oceans. The Government was, therefore, necessarially compelled to call for volunteers and to rely upon them for its support in the great contest before it. The army, small as it was, was divided in loyalty, and about one-fourth of the old officers went to the cause of the Rebellion those remaining steadfast afforded material from which to officer the volunteer troops and largely to contribute to their education The small force of regular troops, engaged in the war, proved themselves brave soldiers. All that martial science, endurance and valor could achieve, belongs to their history. It is the business,how ever, of the regular soldier to be brave and resolute—to fight gallantly. He ia fitted by long preparation and exercise by the study of the school and training of the camp. Such is not the case with our inexperienced volunteers. The nation is justly proud of the regular army and of its valiant achievements. Another, and a peculiar pride, possesses our people as they turn to their volunteer soldiers.—
They are part of themselves, their fellow citizens, their fathers, brothers, husbands, sons. They are the immediate repreaen tatives of the State, County and Neigh borhood. They are "the Bepublic itself in arms I" They came, at the blast of the bugle and roll of the drum, and ran. on willing feet, to their country's banner. They left their farms, workshops, professions, homes and kindred to fight back the foes of their common government.— They knew nothing of arms as a profession. Theirs was no mercenary service. Listening only to promptings of patriot ism they went forth to fight for their country and then returned quiotly to their homes, laid aside the garb of the warrior, pat on the habiliments of peace and resumed their former avocation s. The war has demonstrated the fact that we now have a great and powerful Government, where every citizen can suddenly spring into a full.armed, effective soldier, and can as suddenly be transformed into peaceful citizen.
You, of the Army of the Cumberland and the Volunteer Soldiers of our other grand armies, have re veiled the secret of the phvsical strength of the Republic.— Our people now know the "mighty mus cular power of ournation, and the nerves, tendons and fibres of our Government.— we can now, aa if by the wand of an enchanter, evoke great and magnificent armies. During the late war the calls of President Lincoln flashed, with electric speed, over the land, and, as at the blast from the wild horn of Clan Alpine Chief, every "bracken, bush and stone' gave forth its —Warrior armed for strife But our volunteers have not only taught the lesson how easy it is to raise vast and powerful armies, but also, the further and more important lesson, how easy it is to disperse them without violence or bloodshed. Your example in quietly returning to your homes from the bloody scenes of four years' war, is full of meaning and in. struction. The lesson to be learned from such conduct was not lost on the world To-day the monarchs of Europe wonder how this is done. All civilization is as tonished to know how one million of vol unteer soldiers, who have fought to sue cesstul issue tbe most malignant civil war which Time has yet recorded, have quietly stacked their arms and betaken themselves to civil pursuits. It is an refragable fact that this has been done, and that you, and your comrades in arms, have done it. The loyal volunteers of the United States have proven to the world the ease with which our govern ment can raise armies, from her citizen soldiery, and then suddenly transform them to peaceful life. This element of strength is now as apparent as it is wonderful, and con siitutes a grand bulwark of freedom among us. This ability, suddenly to raise and disperse citizen soldiery, stands in place of immense armies and navies. It is like the fan of Paribanou, the fairy, in Oriental mythology—spread it, and the armies of powerful Sultans could repose beneath its shade—fold it, and it became a toy in the hand of a lady.
This host of veterans which has just disappeared from camp and field, is ready to spring up again at the sound of the trumpet. Now, that Peace is spreading her healing wings over tbe country, the vast military strength of tbe rebellion has become added to that of the government. If war with a foreign power should make occasion again to summon our country men to arms, we can now rally, in a com mon cause, from the survivors of the two late contending armies, two millions of such tried and trusty soldiers as fought the terrible battles of the rebellion. This subtle but wondrous power is now with as. The nation feels it—the world knows it I
Wbile the war cost many lives, and millions of treasure, it educated the na tion to arms and developed tbe martial taste of our people to such extent as to leave no apprehension for tho future.— Every loyal soldier laid down his arms at the termination of the rebellion with tbe solemn, though unuttered pledge, that he would seize tbem again en the first call of his country, and again wield them in its defence.
With all the horrors, destruction and expense of the war it was not without some good. In a certain point of view it operated as a great field of improvement to those who passed through its dangers and turmoils and survived. Many ot the rough, boisterous and untrained men of the country were discipline! by the service Many were there taucht their first lesson of subordination, thougbtfulness cleanliness and systematic personal hab its. The lesBons of the camp sometimes savored of vice, but yet more frequently of virtues, and the conduct of the thou sands of soldiers who have quietly returned from the war and have since become honored ani reputable citizens shows that their training in the field was not harmful but improving.
CONCLUSION.
Gentlemen of the Society of the Army of the Cumberland I Since first entering the service of your country you have seen all tbe vicissitudes and hardships of a solbin's life—the camp—the march, tbe battle, and the victory. You have borne yourselves bravely and successfully, and lave exceeded the expectations of your countrymen. You endured the trials of your new life without murmur. Hunger and thirst, exposure, sickness, fatigue have not daunted you- You encountered your country's enemy around the church at Shiloh you toiled nobly as oae of the besieging armies at Corinth you rolled back the advancing tide of battle at Perrysville you wrested victory from the enemy amidst the tangled cedars at Stone River you held at bay his compact hosts the dark and bloody valley of the Chickamauga you endured the memorable siege at Chattanooga you contributed part of tbe heroic column that stormed Lookout Mountain you formed the centre in the memorable assault on Mission Ridge your dead lay thick on every battle-field from pal ton to Atlanta.— Many of you stood in solid ranks at the murderous battle at Franklin and moved upon the enemv at the crowning victory

"While you have been toiling on,- and risking your lives id battle, you have not only been exalting yourselves, but'unconsciously carving an undying fame. It is to be spoken to your' ocraft, noble soldiers! that your army has not sullied its reputation by any baee or unmanly actions.— It wears no dishonorable scars. It has not recoiled in battle, nor faltered when tbe charge was sounded. In this respect you have a common repute with yOur fellow-soldiers of all the other grand armies ot tbe Union—a glorious national heritage, whicb haa been wrought out by gallant soldiery, and tOfwhick you4ave contributed. ,ru
One fact must not be omitted. Many of your regiments became veterans in the volunteer aervice.' Tbe stripeB of honor, added to the uniform worn by them, indicated that they were not only United States volunteers, but farther and higher than this, veteran volunteers!— The additional title was no meaningless thing. It proclaimed, to the-world, that those who enjoyed it had trad the winepress of' affliction—had been tried in the furnace of battle, and that three years of experience and faithful la bor had been consumed before they gained that honorable distinction. The day that your veterans having falflll ed their first enlistment, againRenter ed the service was the crowning day of their glory. Lass patriotic tor: determined men would have' shrunk (rem tbis second trial. To their noble purpose—to there-enlistment of thousands in all the great armies of the Union, our country owes its safety and integrity.
Tbe pleasure of every greeting among soldiers is commingled with sadness. In looking over the representation here, of those who once composed the Army of the Cumberland, in vain we seek for many- well known and familiar,faces. Why came they not from the dangers of the battle to mingle with us to-day Too well we know. The great record of battles furnishes tbe sad response and points us to the heroic dead. It recalls to memory those who fell gloriously '\a battle and rendered up their lives tc their country-»their souls to their God, We may deplore tbem, we may grieve for them, but our lamentations will not avail. Others there were who fell by the wayside* in weary marches, or whoeq eyea grew dim and spirits fled from oamp or hospital, and who«e names adorn no battleroll. Disease,, tba. great destroyer, made sad havoc in your, lines- His victims 6ur exceeded those who fell in battle. Many a comrade wHo lescaped the perils of the field, driven from his place in iin% .came home "to die amid his iriendp and kin dred—ending life where it 1egan." Hon or then to our patriotic dead I I
Others too, there were, not numbered with the dead, who stricken by disease pr bullets of the enemy have returned to drag out a life of disability and suffering Honor also'to them I Strong and manly soldiers once, tbeir wounded limbs and shattered bodies are to be.. revered and held doubly precious. itaa—
But our sorrows5 lQ dfcj'".niay not be wholly for the dead. Their names are: —"Freedom's now and Fame's."^ I Our sympathies rather go out for the lining. Tbe nation mourns her warrioi*s slain and weeps over the rivers of blood which have reddened its southern plaiqB, but our personal and effective sympathy must be far the friends atid relatives of the fallen braves—most of all for the widow and orphan of the slain. "While we cannot but lament tbe dead, who manfully fought their last battle, it is the living that should call out our active condolence and future care.
Let the nation and tbe State, while, out of their abundance, they -labor to perpetuate the memory of the dead also make haste to provide for the needs of the living Let it be a matter of individual duty, with us all, to care for the wants, of the soldier's family. As God has given to each of us, so let him give of his substance to the widows and orphans of our gallant dead.v
The stalwart returned soldier should have placo, employment and -honors. The wounded and helptass-shotild have home and comforts. The widow of the soldier and his fathbHess children should not beg bread. His orphan should have education and the State and kind friends should hover around him, like ministering angels to nurture, instruct and guard, him.
I leave to linger with you these parting injunctions which are caught from tbe spirit and purpose of your Association and, again wishing you tbe return of many such joyous re-unione, I bid you Hail I and farewell. Qf i: V?
