June 10 Athens, Ga. j of the militia gathered to protect
' the honor of Old Virginia.’
There were few of those, we
fancy, who imagined, when they
saw the body of this sfrang.',
brave old man in the hands of a
cruel fate, that his name was to
outlive so many more splendid
names, and his death would he a
transcendent epoch in our history.
No one questioned the justice
which condemned John Brown.—
Xo one can question it even now,
in coldly considering it as an act
of necessary law. But the justice
of one generation, frequently gives
way to the romance or the religion
of the generation that comes after.
John Brown has become a senti
ment iu American history, and
will be remembered as we remem
ber Brutus, Rienzi and Savona
rola. He was the culmination of
an idea that, for twenty years,
had been growing into a mighty
being in the Northern States.—
Poets, orators, rhetoricians, had
passionately assailed slavery as
the crime of the age, the stain up
on our flag, the injustice to liber
ty, the crime of modern civiliza
tion, the emblem of American
shame. John Brown struck it
with his sword, and although he
fell in the cncouuter, his memory
lived. And when the war came
—the unnecessary war of ambition
and empire inspired by Jefferson
Davis and bis associates—this

memory became a legend, and the
hundreds of thousands who swept
nUt into Virginia on their errand of
r strife, had no cry more stirring to
J. BRADFIELD, their ^uis thau that; while the
... • body of the Condemned fanatic
was mouluering in the grave his
soul was marching on. It march
ed on, carrying with it the hesi
tating Lincoln, the reluctant
Seward, the timid conservatism
of the North, until it animated the
war and made the battle for the
Union the battle for emancipation.
It was won—at how terrible and
dreary a cost, we dare . not say.
But it was the soul of John Brown
that won it, that signed the pro
clamation of emancipation and ac
cepted the surrender of Lee at
A. nomattox.
What events have been com-
presscjl into these fifteen years!
Tha.execution of John Brown was
the beginning of a cycle. The
Democratic party went down in
the tremendous rush that came.
The Republican party came into a
power which has never been se
riously challanged until this time.
The Republic has risen from its
uncertain position as a growing,
or, as some of its critics were
wont to say mockingly, a swell
ing country, to he a recognized
Power among the greatest Powers
of tiie world. A quarter of a cen
tury ago, when Palmerston was
writing to Buhvcr about diploma
tic affairs, he intimated that while
•England won! 1 be justified in go
ing to war to prevent the annexa
tion of California aud Now Mexico,
it was not possible then, because
the English fleet wits otherwise
engaged. Even as bold a states
man as Palmerston would hesitate
in his most audacious moments,
before considering a war with the
United States as an ordinary cir
cumstance ; like a war with Chili
•or Greece. Every Englishman
sees that this Republic has p issed
out of the category of nations
Which can be handled with a fleet.
The England whose resolute min
ister then thought strong enough
to prevent f manifest destiny’ by
a squadron of war-ships, has since
been only too glad to accept peace
from the United States by what
the eloquent Castelar called ' the
sublime humiliation of Geneva.’
In this cycle, we have proved our
nationality even to the greatest of
nations. We have welded the
Union with indissoluble bonds.
Wo have lifted the Republic as it
were, from off the uncertain sandy
foundations of popular sovereign
ty and State rights, and placed it
on tlie rocky ground of union anil
centralization. Is it best that it
should be so? Have we chosen
the .visor in ohoosingthc stronger?
Is freedom more in danger from
centralization, which may be Ciesa-
risin, than from State rights,
which become ^secession? These
are questions that many ot our
wisest and most patriotic thinkers
ask from day to day. It is not
for us to answer them, for they
can only be answered by time, I
opportunity and temptation.—
Whether for good or for evil,
however, the part has been chosen,
and the war for union and eman-
cipatiun lias brought with peace a
government system as strong as
that of Russia.
Thus, then, we sum up the re
sults of the extraordinary cycle
which b’gan its revolution on the
cold December day fifteen years
ago, when the justice of Virginia
took the life of John Brown.
Has the cycle run its course?
Are we to pass from the period
of war to the period of recon
struction? This would seem to
be the mcatiiug of the recent po
litical canvass. The dominant is
sue in that canvass was an idea
which may lie considered the ul
timate fruition of the worst results,
of the war. This was the idea of
of Ctesarism—in other words, tho
possibility that a strong military
government and the necessary vi
olations of Constitutional rights,
unavoidable in a time of war,
would lead to such permanent
changes in our institutions as to
make possible in the future a cen
tral government so strong as to
govern the country instead of be
ing governed by the country.
This was the idea that came as a
menace and a danger from the
events of the past fifteen years—
just as slavery and secession came
as the menace and the danger of
the preceding eras of our history.
We destroyed slavey, uot from
any sentiment of humanity for the
slaves, hut because it endangered
our political integrity as a nation.
We dreaded Cassarism, not lie-
cause we were especially afraid of
Graut, or that we feared his con
tinued administration of affairs
would be inconsistent with the
honor and prosperity of the peo
ple, but because the principle, un
challenged, would endanger our
political integrity as a Republic.
It was only when slavery became
a selfish, aggressive element in
our own affairs that we warred
upon it. It was only , when the
military spirit, the violation of
constitutional traditions, the laps
ing from timo-honored usage, tho
centralization of. authority, the
growth of tho money and railway
power into a monopoly, the use
of the army and navy to establish
political parties over prostrate
Commonwealths, consolidated Into
the idea of Ctesarism. and with all
the danger that the Praetorian
guards of civil service would be
come what the Praetorian guards
of another service proved to he in
the Imse and degenerate days of
the lower empire, that the people
awoke to the truo meaning of the
issue and smote Cresarism with as
severe if not as bloody a baud ns
we smote slavery aud secession.
The cycle, which seems to have
run its eourse, does not close our
history. We are on the eve of
events as grave as those whieli
have given renown to tho time
which bos passed si nee tile execu
tion of Ossawattoinie Brown.

Dilberry’s Trunk.
Dilbcrry was requested by his
wife to carry her Saratoga trunk
from the fourth story to her bed
room on the ground floor. As lie
had just got home from a big day’s
work. Djlberry remarked that he
would go out and hiro* a stray
manumit. Mrs. Dilbcrry, who is
studying somebody’s work on
household economy, observed that
and Conoa, both still important
towns, we entered the broad, rich
plain El Mukua, covered with im
mense fields of grain, and at noon
of the second day from Jerusalem,
reached Jacob's Well. Here, rich
and well-watered, is 'the parcel
of ground which Jacob bought of
the sons ofllantor, the. father of
Slicchem,’ and which the patriarch
when dying, bequeathed to Jo
seph. A splendid church was
built over tlie well in the fourth
century, which tlie Moslems af

has sometimes forgotten God; a
great people never did. Tho scep
ticism of the last century could
not uproot Christianity, because it
lived in the hearts of millions.
I)o you think that infidelity is
spreading? Christianity never
lived in tho hearts of so many
millions us ul present. The forms
under which it is professed may
decay, for they, like nil that is the
work of men’s hand:', arc subject
to the changes and chances «f‘
mortal being; but the spirit ofj
truth is incorruptible. It may be I
developed, illustrated, and* ap
plied, but it can never die; it I
never cun decline. No truth can j
perish. No truth can pass away. I
Tho flame is undying, though
generations diasapoear. Wher
ever truth has started into being,
humanity claims aud guards the
bequest. Each generation gathers
together the imperishable children
of the past, and increases them
by new sons of light alike radiant
with immortality.
II f. i. pi n o t h e Minister.—
"One thing helped me very much
while I was preaching, tj-day,”
said a clergyman. ” What was
that ?” inquired a friend. " It was
the attention of a little girl, who
kept her ej'es fixed on me, mid
seemed to try to understand every
word I said. Sho was a great help
to me.” Think of that, mj - little
ones; and when yon go to church,
or cimpcl, fix your eyes on the
minister, and try to understand
what lie says, tor he is speaking to
yon as well as to the grown-up
people. He is telling altout the
Lord Jesus, who loves the little
ones. .
