Dedication of the Soldiers' Monument

AT GETTYSBUBG-,

When the monument we are about to dedicate shall have crumbled into dust when the last vestige of this coisategy shall have been obliterated by the of time when there shall be nothing left of all we see now, but tbe hills, the valleys, the streams and the distant mountains, the great battle which here took place, with its far reaching consequences, will still live, in hietory, ,KfttioSB have their 'birth, Jooth, *»mstarity, old age and death and ours, though we call it eternal, and our institutions immortal, will be no exception. But though nations must pass away, and^ll pfayticftl 6fiddoc8. of nslr 6tlltfliic5ltofy be lost, yet may they live through all time, in the brightness of their examples in the glory of their deed% beneficence of tbeir institutions. These are the inheritances they may leave to the far-ooming^centn^ps., -rfT ji

When the pyramids of Egypt shall have sunk to the level of the Wile when! the last remnant of Grecian architecture when the last inscribed block of marble (ball have perished, men will still read of Moses and tbe pass of Thermopylae Monuments, after^ll, are, but for.the present, and, may only irrtt/oet 'ft few generations. But a gloriousdeed is a joy forever.

Six years ago day afcer to-morrow, the Union army was stretched along these hights from Chip's Hill to Boned 3Epp-ia human break water, against which the great tidal wave of rebellion was that day to dash in vain, and be thrown back in bloody spray and broken billows. The rebel chieftain, flushed by his success at Fredaricksburg- ftnd-CbancelLqrAxiUa, for getting that jtxis ttiumpb«Md«uitSB from the fact that he bad fought upon his own soil, behind natural fastnesses, having tbe advantage of choice of position and knowledge of the ^country, had Insolent ]y crossed the Potomac, and invaded -in* loyal State of Pennsylvania. But from this invasion he was to be hurled back io bloody defeat, and in disordered fl ght to recrois tbe Potomac, never again to set foot upon the soil of a loyal State. Oo yonder high ground across the plain .Was drawn out in battle array, the rebel host It was an open field the terms were, nearly equal, and steady Northern valor animated by the love of country, was ti meet the boasted Chivalry of the South fighting for elavery,. 8weep it from the field, strip it qf it« meretricious plumes, and give tbB Confederacy a fatal wound

It tS tfielMftF qualities of teen and na tiotit 6hJ^r#{ff3iftfibe long rub. The chivalry of false pride, the arrogance and vanity of a favored class, whose elevatipn is only seen'by the depression of others nay ty spasmodic^efforts, for a time dazzle the eyes of tbe world, but can not long maintain a successful contest with truth, justice, and tbe strength of free in stitutions. This was illustrated in tb war of the rebellion, and in the- batiie «f Gettysburg. Thij battle was not won by superior strategy or military genius, al though managed with great courage and skill by General Mendu and his subordinate commanders,who left nothing apdone that theooo&sion seametl to reqni£df iHd%h made the best use of the forces and op portunities at thejr command, ..

It was a three days battle, witn vary ing fortunes the first aLd second days, in which the steadiness of Northern valor animated by the conviotions of a just cause, and the love: and pridepf a jgreat free country, finally wore out, bore aownj and swept from tbe field the rebel masses, composed of men of equjjt- physical coyr age, but^wJhosjriBoraf "pow4^ was impaired by theabsence of tbait1 utrMg conviction of the right, whioh is a vast element of success.

In yonder cemetery among the white tornb»stones, "wheto heaves tbe turf in many a mouldering heap" over the buried generation* of the hamlet, v^l-plant ed tbe attiliery whose fearful peall would have aroused the slumbering dead, were it not ordained that thoy should •wake only, at the sound of the last trump. Just behind tbe crost of the hill in the old cemetory, stood tho tent of our glorious commander, tho imperturbable Meade, calmly dictating his drdyrls, ^h'ile the storm of shot and shell flew over and around him. From yonder steeple south west of the village, the rebel Chieftain surveyed tbe Hold, directed bis host, and from time to time saw his advancing columns reel and wither, and finally retreat in hopeless flight and confusion. The fldwer of the rebel army bad been chosen for the atsaulL, and were .massed to. bring overwhelming numbers to bear ori'the point of attack. The rebel chieftain brought together more than one hundred and fifty pieces of artillery, with which, for three hours, ho poured a terrific fire upon that p«rt of the Union lines he intended lo asBftult.

It was a grand and solemn sight, when line after line, with steady step and in perfect order, emerged from tho smoke and swept across the field towards the Union army. It. was a moment of vast peril and import, of which both parties were powerfully conscious. If tho rebel assault was successful and we lost the battip, Washington and Philadelphia were within their grasp. The North invaded, defeated and demoralized, would do—we know not what. Foreign fiatlons would be encouraged to Intervene, and the South elated, would put forth more desperate efforts than beforo. It the assault failed, and we gained tbo battle, the remnant of the rebel hosts must seek safeti in flight, and a blow would be iufHctec upon the Confederacy, from which il could scarcely recover. These thoughts were present in the minds of all, and gave heroic courage assault and to resist. But now tho fira of our artillery was opened upon the advancing columns, and the shot and shell tore through their ranks, making great gaps, which were quickly filled up by tnose who came behind. But onward they came, with desperate courage, until soon the fierce fire of musketry on boih sides, mingled with the horrid roar of artillery. Then, with terrific yells, they rushed upon our lines* but the impetus of their assault was suddenly checked. They were met by courage as desperate as their own, and a fierce hand-tc-band conflict took placeThe result was not long doubtful. Their thinned and broken columns were^ung oaek across the plain in headlong flight-, leaving thousands of prisoners in our hands, the ground covered with dead and dying, and wet and muddy with blood We hsd gained the day. tfcotnsh *tTmr* uU COBt. The victory was yrtet and mighty in its constquencej. Th« {ires* t%« of the rebel army was broken, n#ver to be recovered, and tbe wound inflicted upon the Confederacy wae never staunched, until it had bled to dea h.

But I shall not attempt to give a general description of tbe battle, or to enumerate the many glorious names that are a part of-It.

The principles of liberty once planted in the earth and ripened into their nch fruits, will be borne through all the oges, blessing mankind to the latest generation, even .as the se^de flrsts^wn by the hand of God In Paradise, were blown by the winds from continent to continent, until tbe world was clothed with verdure, fruits and flowers.

The prospect for liberty throughout the world'was never so bright as it 13 tc-day. In all civilized lands the great armiea of freedom are on tbeir march. And they are allied armies. Victory to one will give prestige and confidence to the others. With flomo, progress will be slow they Will encounter disaster and defeat, but will again rally and go forward to final victory. In the great campaign of free dom we count, not by months, but by decadMjaad generations, in which there will be Itah, many a Gettysburg, and a final Appomattox. The lines of march will be marked by many a cemetery like this, by the wrecks of fallen in stitutions and dynasties, and by the ruin of hereditary privilege and castes.

Let ua briefly review the advance of liberty since 1776. The principles of the Declaration of Independence took early and deep root in France. The people of that Empire had long suffered from the grossest misrule and oppression, and their minds were well prepared to comprehend and accept the new Gospel of Liberty. The French Rev olutton first threw off the kingly govern ment, then established complete democ racy, but not knowing how to use liberty without abusing it, and the people being governed by their passions, and seeking to avenge upon parties^ the wrongs they

and classes

iy had suffered for genera

tions, passed Into anarchy, from which the transition back to monarchy and despotism was easy and rapid. But tbe re turn to monarchy was not characterIzed by the former oppression and m»rulr. The people bad learned their rights andman**ciULbad learned their power. MsuVof the old abuses which had been swept away by the Revolution were gone forever, and the new monarchy governed with comparative justice, liberality and humanity.

The spirit of liberty had entered into the hearts of the people, and from time to time asserted itself in various ways, and in 1848, France returned again to a Republic. This lasted but a short time, out the new monarch who overthrew it and established himself opon its ruins.was constrained to acknowledge the sovereignty of the people, and to profess to accept his crowa by the vote of the ma

While we can. cot say much for

the freedom of that election, nor believe thai the result was the 11 of the people, yet it was of vast significance that tbe usurping government

WHS

compelled to

election. In many respects the govern meut of Napoleon Ill-has been excellent. He has recognized tbe freedom of religious opinion. He has protected the people in their persons and property- He has encouraged trade and industry, stimulated manufactures, and extended their commerce. He has given them a constitution which creates a legislative body, and guarantees many rights and privileges. But the people are not satisfied, They are denied liberty of speech and of the press upon political questions. They are not allowed to assemble for the discussion of measures in which they are vitally interested. Their legislative body is so con structed and managed, as to be a mere registry of the will of the Emperor. The recent elections show tbe spirit of discontent, and the existence of a powerful party who understand their rights and are determined to assert them, peaceably if they can, and, as we have reason to believe, forcibly if they must. The attentive observer, and student of French history, is led to the conclusion that nothing can preserve the throno and dynasty of Ifapoleon JUL, but tho concession of popular rights, and the establishment of freedom of.apeecb, of the press, of tbe

I elections, and of the legislative body.

Italian liberty.

The'spirit of liberty is abroad in Rus sia—mighty empire of tbe North, whose government has represented the perfect idea of Absolute Despotism—an auto cratic power, unrestrained by constitu tion or law. An enlightened Czar, an

mate(

j0ve for his people, and per

ceiving the individual happiness and ma terial prosperity produced by free institu tions, abolished slavery throughout his dominions, made the serfs freemen, and gave to them local free institutions, based upon the right of suffrage. It is true the imperial power still extends overall dark, impenetrable canopy—, but be' neath its shadow there is individual lib erty, and local self government. Thus far the prosperous result has established tbe wisdom of the Czar, and may we not believe that he has laid the foundations a free government, lobe developed Into a grand Republic in the far-future? and nearer, into a constitutional monarchy, with representative institutions Liber ty is like living seed wherever planted it vivifies, expands, develops. Thus planted in Russia among the lowest peo pie, and for local purposes, it will grow, develop, and finally conquer. Russia among the progressive nations, and is our friend and it was the American exam pie which touched the heart and intellect of the Emperor. The spirit of liberty, in its onward marcb, has invaded Spain and is stirring the great national heart,— We have lately seen tho Spanish peo pie firmly, and almost peacefully and unanimously, depose a licentious Queen and declare against her dynasty. We have seen this people meet in primary assemblies, and, by suffrage universal, elect a National Cortes, which has for many months in oalm debate, considered and framed a new constitution, which although not republican in its form, oon tains so much liberty, so much that good and progressive in government, as to give tbe world high hope in the future of Spain. We have heard this National Assembly declare that all sovereignty and power reside in (he people thus de nying tho Divine right of Kings, and as sertiag the fundamental idea of free in stitutions. We have heard it pronounce the abolition of slavery. We have heard it pronounce the right of all men to wor ship God scoordiBgJto the dictates of their own consciences. Verily, these are great things and new times in old Spain.

These are the germs of free institutions and will, in the progress of years, grow into a Republican Government.

Cuba, the Queen of the Antilles, rich est gem in the Spanish Crown, the most fertile of islands, rich beyond description in the fruits and productions of tropical climes, and from which tbe Spanish treasury has so long been supplied, is making a bold, vigorous and, as we trust, a successful effort to throw off the Spanish yoke and establish her independence.

The native Cubans, inspired by the spirit of liberty, have proclaimed freedom to the slaves, freedom of religious opinion, and that governments exist only by consent of the governed. Ctba belongs to the American system, acd the question of her fate is essentially American. We can not be indifferent to the straggle, end trust and believe, that our Government stands ready to acknowledge her inde pendence, at the earliest moment that will be justified by the laws and usaees of nations.

Though we can not rightfully intervene between Spain and her ColonjTwhich she has so long oppressed and impoverished, our sympathies are with the Cubans, and we can not regret any aid tbey may reeelve, which does not involve a breach of tbe international duty of cur Government.

While the grand revolution in Spain is proceeding so peacefully and successfully while the Spanish people are assert' ing their liberties, and fortifying them by Constitutional bulwarks, it is to be deeply regretted that tbey are denying to Cuba what they claim for themselves.

The American Revolution was also an English revolution. The struggle for liberty here reacted upon England, has gone forward there continually aD(j js stronger to-day lhaa ever. One reform

Recently we have seen new extension of the franchise, followed almost immediately by mff for the disestablishment of the Irish Church. The Irish Church establishment, though professedly in the interests of Protestantism, is not sustained or justified by the Protestant world, and the Protestant masses of England are .demanding it3 repeal. The dis-eetablish-ment bill has passed the House of Commons, but the Lords threaten to reject it or destrqy it by mnriiflnsfcinn*.—aaay sacrifice itself, but it can not thereby preserve tho^Iriah EaUtttfUp^ louse df Lords is tofetat8d^"iiow only upon the condition that it .will ratify .the aotion of thef^iwntnii^lm£lri'Ml%^l^t8 formal assent to all popular movements

Such a movement catoti'ot, -perhaps, be long deferred anyhow. Another reform bill w.ill soon be demanded, fafr&ag frage universal, or nearly so, to be follow ed by the disestablishment of the Eng lish Church, tbe abolition of the laws of primo-g^niture, and the. final deatcjglipi of tne kingly office. ''Th§

Tbe difficulties in the way of putting down the rebellion were, great. The rebellious States contained a populatioi^of not less than ten millions, ana although nearly four millions were slaves, yet most of them, until the very conchuidn of the war, constituted tho laboring and producing classes, and furnished the supplies for the rebel armies in the field, and tbe non-combatants at home. The territory of the rebellious States comprised an .area of not less than eight hundred, thousand square miles, diversified fcy v'ast ranges of mountains, deep rivers, tangled wilder ness, far stretching swamps, and every where presenting natural defences, behind which, a small force could hold to large one at bay.

The lines of communication were nec essarily of great length, and maintained with difficulty. A large portion of our forces were constantly employed in this way, and in garrisoning posts, so that it was seldom we were able to meet the enemy with superior forces upon the field.

These immense difficulties went far to counterbalance our superiority.in population and resources, and were so great as to lead military observers throughout Europe to prophecy, almost with one accord, that we could not conquer the Sobth: It was said there was no (instance in history where so large a population scattered over even one-third of a territory so great as that ombraced by tbe rebellion, had been eubdued. It was said we could not conquer space that conquest would be a geo graphical impossibility: that three mil lions of men could not garrison the Soutb and that when we had captured their towns and overrun the inhabited parts of their country, they would still maintain the war in morass, mountain and forest, almost impenetrable to regular armies, until tbe North, exhausted in blood and treasure, and broken in hope, would give up tbe contest.

Such was the belief of leading military minds in Europe, and of tbe politicians of tbe South when the war began. These opinions seemed well founded in reason and in history, and the suppression of the rebellion, all things considered, may be justly regarded as the greatest of all military achievements.

The fact that the rebels fought upon their own soil, in a country with which they were familiar, protected from tho approach of loyal armies by the natural advantages before described, was a full compensation for tbe difference between the population and the resources of ^he two sections, and the final triumph of£Ur

English people are substantially, though not professedly, republican in sentiment. They accept the great doctrine of human rights upon which our government is founded and, while they yet retain the throne and the House of lioHiap'*Bj**{t» tempt on tbe part of either toroxercia$lenitive power, or resist the ^jhtar" will, would be instantly met by, threats of re sistance, and, if not abandoned, .by revolution. The throne and the Upper House remain much like tbe Feudal- castles that yet distinguish the English landscape emblems of departed power, curious to the view,full Of historic interest, b&t ho longer dangerous to the peace of the surrounding country. English reforms heretofore slow, are becoming more rapid, and the English people are marching with accel erated speed to a Republjcsi '-GoVern ment- Universal suffrage and heriditai^r privilege cannot exist Jong together. They are essentially hostile elements The progress of suffrage in England has been resisted at every step by tbe aristocratic classes but after many years of struggle it has arrived at that point, where itafurther progress cannot be longdelayed. Universal suffrage lies at the very summit of the hill of Difficulty, the ascent ot hich is rugged, slow and toilsome, but when achieved, thepeople will be masters of the situation. America is avenging herself upon England, by gradually but surely overturning her aristocratic and hierarchic institutions by the force of her teachings and example. The principles of civil and religious liberty, crude and imperfect when first brought from Eng land to America, having been reflned. il lustrated and extended, we return them to the mother country, for -her adoption laden with rich and glorious results. The spirit of American liberty is abroad in

England. Her Brights, Gladstones, Fors ters, and her whole host of liberal states men, are proclaiming the doctrines of tbe Declaration ef Independence, and verify ing the saying of a celebrated English man, that the American revolution guar anteed the free institutions of England We may not live to see England a republic, but I believe our childrenVwiU.
