FUME AN'S MEMORIAL.
COL. GRIEVE S REMARKS.
May it please your Honor :
It is always grateful to the feel
ings of the eulogist, to find his
subject at the time of nativity, in
the regions of the darkest obscu
rity, and the most abject poverty,
and to accompany him through
the most straightened circum
stances, amidst the greatest dis
advantages, along that rugged and
storm-beaten path, that general
ly leads to that towering emi
nence upon which fame’s proud
temple stands. But such is not
the province of the panegyrist of
our lamented brother.* The
grandson of two remarkable men,
the first born of a sire, distin
guished for science and literature,
refinement, culture, and art; born
under a most propitious star,
nursed in the lap of luxury, sur
rounded from his youth by alHu-
ence, blest with high intellectual
endowments; a vigorous mind, an
untiring energy; an iron consti
tution, an athletic frame, a hand
some person with pleasing man
ners, adorned with all the elegant
accomplishments of the most re
fined and polite society, lie com
menced lus course, a favorite of
fortune, and a stranger to adver
sity.
Arrived at manhood, and hav
ing adopted his profession, pos
sessed of a beautiful home, sur
rounded by every comfort that
wealth could give, every delight
that books could afford, to make
that home a paradise, there need
ed then but the softening, the re
fining, the purifying, the eleva
ting influence of an elegant and
accomplished woman, a pious and
devoted wife. He sought such an
one. He found and wooed her,
and she gave him her heart, and
took his name. Plunging with
all the ardor and enthusiasm of
Ids nature, into the fierce arena
of political strife, he was soon
known to the extent of the bounds
of his native State, as a framer of
her laws, both statutory and fun
damental. It would indeed seem
that these were enough to fill to
overflowing, the cup of happiness
and ambition of any ordinary
mortal. And so indeed they were.
But fortune had still in store an
other prize for her favored son.
His fame was yet to ring through
out the length and breadth of our
whole land, and from the Poto
mac to the Bio Grande, from the
snow-capped hills of the North,
to the sunny sands of the gulf,
the joyous echo was yet to send
back Ids name.
In the midst of all this, when
at the zenith of his glory, in the
pride of vigorous manhood, in
the full development cf manly
beauty, the admiration of his
countrymen, the cynosure of even-
eye, surrounded by his beautiful
family together with all that could
make life happy and desirable, in
the midst of all this, that ghastly
messenger came.
He came with his inverted
torch to beckon him away. He
came to blight that happy home,
with the baleful shadow of his
gloomy and sombre wings, to wid
ow that young wife, and to take
away the father from those little
ones, hardly old enough yet to
realize their terrible bereavement,
almost too young to appreciate
their irreparable loss. But here
let us draw the’curtain. It is not
for us to invade the sanctity of
private grief or to intrude upon
the affliction of that stricken little
circle, but let us rather shield and
protect it from the common eye
as something too holy, too sacred,
too pure for us to enter there.
Among the distinguishing char
acteristics of our lamented broth
er, I would speak of his exceeding
kindness of heart. If you would
know of his kindness, go where
he was best known. Go to the
poor, to the humble cottar, and
ask him who it was that so often
sheltered his poor defenceless
head from the pitiless peltings of
the tempest and the storm, and
drove the fierce wolf from his
door? He will answer in silence
and in tears, that eloquent lan
guage of nature and of truth.
These words Simple as they may
sound, and simple as they really
are, are yet such as are calculated
to touch a chord in the hearts of
very many, for there are very
many to whom he was kind.
But among the most admir
able traits of his character, M as
his perfect child-like simplicity,
his utter freedom from every
thing like guile. To say that
he could not bear malice* would
convey but an imperfect idea of
his disposition. He never had
any malice to bear, and it was
impossible for his heart to retain
that which it never possessed. He
knev- not the word. He was
spirited, but his anger was like a
flash, and it passed away e’er the
blood which it had called to his
face had departed from his cheek.
This was literally true. How oft
en have we engaged in our petty
little quarrels together, and how
fiercely have we quarrelled too—
but the sun never went down upon
his wrath, and the night wrapt us
in slumber together, hand in hand.
And as I think of him now, so
free from envy, jealousy, maligni
ty, treachery and hate, and all
those dark and terrible blots,
Which so hideously deform and
distort and mar human nature, so
guileless, sp generous, so liberal,
so kind, with all the youthful
freshness, both in his personal
appearance and in his deportment
of a hopeful, bouyant, open, frank
and trusting boy, I am not
ashamed to confess that I was
unmanned when I saw such a
friend cut down.
He had his faults for he was
human. “Nemo sine vitiis nacitur
To pronounce him immaculate,
Mould be but a mockery, for seek
to cover up his frailties would be
an insult to his memory Bor he
would scorn such an act. with all
the indignation of a soul aloove
hypocricy, meanness, and deceit.
The faults of great men are the
thorns in the flesh of genius, while
it too often happens, that the
stern rectitude of many is the sop
thrown by fortune to her less fa
vored ones. In this regard I dis
dain to indulge in any namby
pamby suivelling; I am M illing
that men should “speak of him as
he was, nothing extenuate, nor
set down aught in malice”, for j The silent tomb.
The cock's shrill clarion, or the echoing
horuy
No more shall rouse him from his lowly
bed.”
As F stood beside that lowly
bed and looked down for the last
time on all that remained of
him on earth, as a gentle breeze
shook from an overhanging tree, a
few first falling leaves of the ap
proaching autumn, Iiom- mournful
ly, and oh, with what a desolate
feeling did the sad apostropho of
the poet fall upon my heart:
“The loaves were failing, when thou didst
RO

To All Whom it May Concera.

whatever were his faults, I stand
ready with this answer : Seldom
was there ever a man, tried in
such a furnace of prosperity.
Talk about the trials of adversi
ty! A brave man despises all such,
and laughs them to scorn. But
among those, whose lives have
never experienced a single cross,
but on the contrary have always
been one unbroken chain of fortu
itous successes, and brilliant tri
umphs, few there be vlio have
passed unscorched through such
a blaze. I n’ill not say that he
had fewer faults than other men
but I do say he had no more.
And if there be an}' who would
“draw his frailties from, their dread
abode”, if they Mill only come
qualified in accordance with the
requirement of our Divine Master
while on earth, I am Milling to
bide the time, when one can be
found M'ho shall first cast a stone.
He had his enemies for he was
a man of n orth, and ndiat man of
worth has them not. The Book of
all books says, “m oo unto you when
all men shall speak u-ell of you.”
I pity the poor, miserable, con
temptible thing, that can truth
fully boast, that he has not an
enemy in the whole n'orkl. Ani
mosity seldom, if ever, draws its
sword upon insignificance, while
u'e all knon- that it is always the
fastest chariot in the race, that
accumulates the most dust upon its
wheels. But I verily believe that
the last spark of envy went out
until his life, the last feeling of
jealousy fell palsied at his death.
But if there be any still loft, if
there be one non- who n-ould witli-
liold one jot or tittle from that
meed of praise which is his just
due, that Mould filch one shining
letter from the brilliant record of
his fair fame, that M'ould pluck
oue bright star from the crou'n of
his glory, let us cast over such au
one the broad mantle of Christian
charity, and in the sincerity of
our hearts let us pity him, in
honor of our departed friend who,
could he burst the cerements of
tlio tomb, we are assured from
our intimate knowledge of liis
Rut then, the green leaves or the tree,
The cuckoo, and the busy bee
Will come—but with them, bring not thee.”
Farewell, then, my friend, fare-
u-ell. Oft have u r e sported to
gether since manhood like boys ;
oft have we mingled our counsels
as men; oft have u'e wrangled
even as little children, but always
were we each to other as friends.
For thyself, thou didst live long
enough for life and for glory.
For thy countrymen—could their
prayers have bceu answered—thou
wouldst have sunk to rest with
the setting sun, and not in the
brilliant noon-day of thy joyous
existence.
kind heart, his noble, his genei’ous,
his magnanimous impulses, would
speak to us in that grand lan
guage which broke from the dying
Saviour of the n'orld, “Forgive
them, for they know uot what
they do.”
On that fatal day ndien the sad
news reached us that Furman was
dying, the doleful tidings Ml up
on the city liko a direful pall.
Many continued to hope eveu
against hope. Some of us M’ho
kneu' the original strength of his
constitution, and his remarkable
vitality, trusted and sincerely
prayed that a light might yet
flash up behind tho dark cloud,
and that fortune would once more
smile upon her petted child. But
it Mas not so to be. He M ho had
surmounted every obstacle, and
defied all opposition, had at length
met that one by ndiom “the silver
cord was to bo loosed, and the
golden bowl be broken.” He
udio had given life to our very
soil was now about to yield up his
own. That indomitable spirit
that had never succumbed n-as
now about to pass into that un
seen world where honor does not
folloM- us but where love reigns
supreme. And as “the curfew
tolled tho knell of his parting
day,” it seemed as though a great
light had gone out. And so it
had. When that great interest
of this great country was at its
direst extremity, when the plant
ers—those sturdy yeomen of our
land—had gone on from year to
year, trying to solve the mighty
problem only to become more
deeply involved, more hopelessly
ruined, until after years of pover
ty, toil, disappointment, and care,
beaten back to their last trench,
they M’ere about to strike their
colors in utter despair,‘like a daz
zling meteor in the middle of the
darkest uiglit, Furman’s genius
shot across the black and porten
tous sky. He came to illumine
the hitherto impenetrable dark
ness, and to dispell the dismal
shadow that hung over our land.
Like an angel of mercy, he came
to that great interest of his coun
try when it was sick unto death,
not only to save its life and to
restore it to a sound and vigorous
health, but I had almost said to
ernloM- it M’itli immortality. He
came to cheer the hearts and
brighten the hopes of his coun-
trymeu. “To gladden tho wilder-
ness and tho solitary place for
them, and to cause the desert to
rejoice and blossom as the rose.
To satisfy the desolate and waste
ground” aud—to epitomise—he

“To scatter plenty o’er a smiling land,

And when success had crowned
his efforts, far was it from him,
to ling to his own breast the se
cret of his grand desideratum
for his omu selfish purposes and
individual agrandizement. But
M’itli that princely liberality,
M’hich M as part of his nature, and
M'itli a patriotism worthy of the
highest praise, he freely gave it
all to his country, together with
his young life, in order that liis
people might reap the product
of his genius, without money and
without price.
To accomplish all this he need
ed no M’eary years of a long and
tedious probationary course; as a
planter lie passed through no
useless age of feeble infancy, but
leaped forth at maturity, in the
full panoply of his power, like
Minerva from the brain of Jove.
But he is gone, and all that M’e
can do cannot bring him back, all
that M’e can say, Mill never Make
