Miilodgeville Letter.
Mu lzdoevillk, 9th Nov., 1866.
Editor Daily JYess : The great
event of to-day was the rejection of the
Constitutional Amendment by the Gen
eral Assembly of this* Slate. In the
Senate, Mr. Strozier moved to postpone
a consideration of the Report of the
Committee, to whom the matter had
been referred, to some future day— said
report in the meantime to be priuted.
This was amended so as to put the
resolution recommended by the Commit-.,
tee, on its passage —Mr. Moore moving
the amendment — and thus passed. The
resolution was then adopted by*a unani
mous vote. In the House, there were,
as you have seeu, two votes against the
resolution, or in favor of the Constitu
tional Ameudmeut. The report of the
Committee—the gist of which is in the
telegraphic synopsis—is a very able
document, and is from the pen of Major
Moses, of Columbus. Boiled down, the
argument is this : If we’re a State we
can do as we please, and we don’t
please to play the dog about this thing ;
if we're not a State, it is a matter that
touches us not. The dilemma is a shrewd
one, the argument short, sharp, and de
cisive. Very little interest was mani
fested about the matter—not halt as
much as iu a divorce case that has been
battled over for two days, hand-running,
in the Senate—it being taken as a
matter of course it should go by the
board.
So far, on the relief theme, the Legis
lature has stood by the landmarks of
the law—a stand for which, if continued,
people will, however they may now tem
porarily suffer, in the long run tliauk
them. A bill to repeal the law of judg
ment lien has been much contested, but
is now defeated, and a consideration
refused.
Hon. Geo. T. Burnes, of Richmond,
is now and has been for some days at
his post of duty—as cordially greeted,
omniverousty industrious, and as om
nipresent as ever. Bill Arp has not, as
yet, aniv-ed, but is daily looked for, his
abilities for hard work being on a par
with his great powers as a satirist. The
news of the Northern elections was
watched for here with great interest, and
as the first dispatches seemed to pro
mise a Radical defeat, tidings of the
final result were doubly distasteful.
Some of the weaker brethren here are
lamentably atraid that Congress, so
called, will, at its next session do away
entirely with the State government, and
regulate everything ala territory. But
no fears. We are in the hands ol a
mightier Master than ever trod upon
the floor of the White House or made
the halls of the Capitol resound with
his voice. “ Pluck," says the old Ger
man war-song that has been thundered
to the air at every camp fire on the
Rhine—‘ Pluck trill win." A stiff
front, no untimely concessions, square
up in the stirrups and not yield one sin
gle inch where we have the ghost of a
liberty of action, is the policy of the
day. Bow to the inevitable, of course,
but how base to make that “ inevitable"
for ourselves. Now that the Amend
ment is rejected, what will those promi
nent men do whose backbone became
in*its presence as water, and whose
tremulous advice was “ somehow or
somehow £lse” to gulp the bill ? Out
upon the advice—the Legislature has
spurned it, and tlfb people will spew
such ill counsellors out. S. D.

A lady correnpondent »ends the At
lanta Iktrllujemxr tha following account
hi the noble manner in whteh our gal
lant dead have been honored by the
hand* of fair women. It will be found
worthy of perusal:
Mr. Editor: In noqg of the late pa
pers have I noticed aTjescription of the
dedication of the ilesaoa Confederate
Cemetery, and I am not willing that
-t|» country at large should remain in
ignorance of the great and good work
which has just been accomplished by
the noble woman oh Georgia, though 1
had hoped eome abler pen than mine
Would have assumed the pleasing task
of chronicling their patriotic deeds.
In May last, the “ Women of Resaca’’
sent forth an appeal to the State, re
questing- aid in gathering up and in
terring in one spot the remains of those
who had fallen in the battle of Resaca
14th and 15th of May, 1864 ; and about
the first of Aiguri they had received
Contributions enough to commence the
work and give out the contract for bn vy
ing the dead. The work then begun
has been prosecuted with so much vigor
that, on the 25th of October, the ceme
tery, though not entirely completed, was
ready for dedication. All the dead,
three hundred and seventy six, have
been brought in and interred ; neat and'
tasteful headboards at every grave,
bearing the name and command of the
deceased, as far as ascertainable—but
the majority have simply the sad in
scription : “ Unknown, C. S. A ”
The grounds, by nature beuu-iful, are
artistically laid off, and enclosed by a
handsome lence, with large and massive
gates, spanned by arches. The ceme
tery is situated on the battle-field, two
miles above Resaca, very near the rail
rosd ;. aud siipuuuding it oo'aW sides
are Bills atilT frowning with breastworks,
defending which these gallant men
fought and fell three years ago.
On the mpruing of the 25th, I, with a
number of other visitors, was present
at the dedication services of this bcauti
ful city,.of the dead. The day was most
propitious to the occasion, balmy and
cloudless; and the deep blue of the Oc
tober sky, and the brilliant coloring of
tjhe October leaves, were' reflected in
tbe rippling brpok which winds through
tie Ijo.sfcr pars ot the cemetery. Qu the
bank of this brook, on a slight eminence,
■was,erected an exquisite evergreen tom’
pl& Had' our cause been success! ul,
from its dome would have floated the
battle-flag under whose folds these dead
heroes had fought and died. But as
“Fate with pitiless hand has furled”
forever those colors, airuran waved
above them her blood red banuere, and
from her fading groves shed over the
bier of each sleeping martyr a pall
more gorgeous, more honorable, and
more appropriate than any sad memento
of a lost and yielded cause.
So, as no Southern cross, though even
furled and shrouded, could be raised
here, tbe little temple had twined among
its festoons of evergreens and -white
flowers these exquisite lines :
“Geutly we lay them underneath the sod.
And leave them with their fame, their
country, aud their God.
Almost every State of the late Con
federacy is represented there; each
State in a separate plat, and all circling
around the Unknown. In the centre
of this lot for the nameless dead is
reared a mound, surrounded by cannon
balls, upon whose summit is erected a
simple wooden cross, bearing the in
scription, “To the Unknown Dead.”
This, 1 am informed, is soon to be dis
placed for one of granite, the generous
gift of Messrs. Meador & Tumlin, of
Stone Mountain.
To every State there was an appro
priate motto attached. To Tennessee,
■‘Their names are bright on Fame’s
proud sky.” To Georgia, ‘-They sleep
beneath their native sky.” To Missis
sippi, ‘‘Peace to the brave.” To Ala
bama, her own signification, “Here we
rest.” To the Kentuckians, “Rest,
warriors, rest.” Among the latter, I
noticed a grave upon whose headboard
was marked Charley Gryley, and was
informed he was a Kentucky youth of
sixteen, and some gentle hand had
placed above the hoy warrior who slept
so far from home, a beautiful tablet,
bearing the touching line, “Somebody’s
darling slumbers here.”
Among this “ Citadel of Graves” I
was particularly attracted by five which
lay side by side and representing almost
as many States. The first as you ap
proached bore the name of a Floridian,
and a floral offering upon his lowly
mound brought to mo a breath from
the “ Land ol Flowers” he had left be
fore. The next was an Arkansian, and
in an evergreen wreath were wound the
words “ Over the river.” Next to him
lay one from the “ Lone Star State,”
and a beautiful emblem of his native
land, composed of arborvitm, was at
tached to the headboard. There were
two Louisianians, whose graves were
connected by an evergreen garland, and
the word “Exiled” thereon. When
Louisiana
“ Claimed from war his richest spoils,
The ashes of her bravo,’’
a brutal order denied them the right of
sepulture in their own soil, and a sister
State receives them. Such a sentiment
was woven in to the motto which first
gl-eeted the eye as you entered the
grounds. Immediately opposite the en
trance was erected n large evergreen
arch, with the inscription:
“ Georgia ruooives into her bosom
Tho fallen sons of hor sister States.”
To the right, a similar aich with these
lines: ■.
’“ Our noble army of martyrs—
They died for the land they could not,save.”
In tho centre of the grouuds was
erected tho speaker’s stand. The offici
ating ministers were Rfov. Mr. John
Jones, of Griffin, and Rov. Mr. William
Rivers of Cave Impressive ad
dresses were delivered, and everything
paosgd oil' in a most pleasing manner.
Mujor Wallace, the obliging Superin
tendent of the road, and who I under
eland has been tanch interested in th#
undertaking, and that day allowed an
extra train from Dalton, and there wa#
an Assembly present on the occasion.
We tetnaiued iu this "bivouac of (he
dead’’ till late in the afternoon ; then as
we slowly moved out of sight, t watched
the sum's red ray# quivering among tjie
white bead boards, or resting g*®tly
upon ihaic. evergreen decorations, and
contrasting the peaceful scenes before
me with tbe terrible drama enacted on
this very spot two years ago. Now
“Tbs neighing trOo\>, the flashing ilade,
Tha bugle's stirring blast;
Tha ebitrga, tha dreadful cannonade,
The di# and (bout are past, ,
Nor war’s wtW note, nor glory’s pent,
Shall thrill with jioree delight,
Those breasts that never more may feel
The rapture of the fight.
“Bost on, embalmed and nalntod dead,
Dear as tbe blood ye gave;
No impious footsteps here shall tread,
The herbage of your grave.
Nor shall your glory be forgot,
While Fame her record keeps ;
Or Honor points tbe hallowed spots,
Where Valor proudly sleeps.
Power of a Good Man’s Life. —The
beauty of a holy life, says Chalmers, con
stitutes the most eloquent and effective
persuasion to religion, which one human
being can addresss to another. We have
many ways of doing good to our fellow
creatures, but none so efficacious as lead
ing a virtuous, upright, aud well-ordered
life. There is an energy of moral suasion
in a good man’s life, passing the highest
efforts of the orator’s genius. The seen
but silent beauty of holiness speaks more
eloquently of God and duty than the
tongdes of men and angels. 1-iet parents
remember this. The best inheritance to
jeave a child is a virtuous example, a
legacy of hallowed remembrances and
associations. The beauty >of holiness
beaming through the life of a'hjved rela
tive or friend,is more effectual to strength
en such as do stand in virtue’s ways,
and raise up those that are bowed down;
than precept, command, entreaty, or
wurrnug. Christianity itself, I believe,
owes by far the greater part of its moral
power, not to the precepts or parables of
Christ, but to his own character. The
beauty of that holiness which Is enshrined
in the. four brief biographies of the man
of Nazareth, has done more, and will do
more, to regenerate the world, and bring
in an everlasting righteousness, than all
the other agencies put together. It has
done more to spread his religion 1 in the
wgrld, than all that has ever been written
on the evidences of Christianity.
