Pn*e Train Oil. presentation of banner The Young Ladies of Rome and vi cinity presented a Banner to the Bomb Light Guards on Friday the 2Cth inst. The following are the speeches deliver- on the occasion. — Miss Joe Stewart, in behalf of the Ladies aocompanied the presentatibn with the following remarks: Gentlemen of the Light Guardi, I am commissioned by ibe Young Ladief of this oity, to present this Flag to the "Rome light Guards.” We wish it re ceived as an earnest of the interest We feel in the prosperity pf the Company. We feel assured, that the motto we have chosen will meet your approval, it be ing expressive of the patriotism that should fill the hoart, and sway the ac tions of eveiy true hearted American. The liberties we prised so deerly, are shared by us all, but on you rests the glorious task of maintaining those cherished rights. Heaven forbid that this Banner shall ever wave over the horror* of a civil war, but if conflict is inevitable, and oir- cum stances shall make it necessary, then be itywr ctpecial caret hat it waves in triumph. . * , Capt. Mogruder, on receiving, the Banner said: In receiving this beautiful flag from your hands my fair friends, 1 feel that any wordnof mine will but feebly ex press onr gratitude for the kindness and good will you have shown to onr com pany by bestowing on ns this highly prized gift. , -UUta*y- tolta na that. tho Athenian women were accustomed to crowfi With gat lands their victorious generals, and successful orators. I remember too that the daughters Of England have raised_a commemorative Statue to Wel lington, composed of the captured can non of his splendid victories. And Southern matrons and Southern maid ens pleading through the graoefrul elo quence of a Northern orator have rescued Mt. Vernon from dilapidation and decay and made it the trysting spot of the nation. In beautifril accordance with these examples hare our country women ever been foremost in rewarding, by some appropriate token, every vir tuous and heroio set,and patriotism has always found its.truest, purest friend in the love and sympathy of woman.— Though we may never have deeerved a shadow of suoh distinction from you, our fair towns-women, yet you have made us the recipients of a gift which should be dear to us in our. character of soldiers, from whatever source it may have been obtained, but doubly dear when coming from those to whom many of us are bound by the strongest ties of relationship, of association, and of ar- rtcTioN. And now, whilst returning to you our sinoere and heartfelt thanks, let me assure you thatas long ss we have heard to love or strength to wield a sword, that, should necessity require it, the Rome Light Guards will be ever ready to strike in your defence, end to tna.ntqin unsullied the honor of this flag, your beauteous gift- And further when we behold its t bright stars glittering o’er our tanks may it serve to remind us,that though you have warm heartaand approving smiles, with which to reward the brave and true, yet youbave only pity for the weak, contempt for the coward, and scorn for the traitor. Gent* of the Rome light Guard*;—It It said that when, in some dark hour of our revolutionary struggle, when army after army hod been dispersed and over come, and the discouragement of defeat had -well nigh crushed our hope of liber ty, that the Father of his Country, rising above the oaree and calamities by whioh he was surrounded, exolaimed: ."Give me but a banner, and thetneons to plant that banner, and l.will yet roily wound me an army which wiU raise up our bleeding country and set her free!" We, fellow-soldier* have, by the kind- nets of. our "friends, been provided with a banner. And now let os, who are de scendants of that gallant army whioh rallied round Washington in the hour of need, resolve and pledge mwseives, this day, that should our country's no- cess!ties evST call us to the duty, that wo will cat&r round this standard and with our strength strive to repel the threa^anjfi g foe. And li^MlMmember that though as AuetioaiW6te Uhlon of these States k deer to us, and it isourduty to strug gle to maintain it agataatihe foreign ta^ vader, yet, tie true Southern m« more especially as Qfioigfens, (whether eons hy nativity or adbplfcs) tbei we haverigbtadceicrtous than even Union! whtnh riirhti. 41 that MOlld IttOltO M* tebll.
