mi' 1 l> >2^ THURSDAY. AMID 16 s I6SS. ; ■ ; ■ - . —* Our home Land Twenty years ago. 9 tb of this mouth, since our noble Lee surrendered at Appomattox. At that time the condition ot rhe South was indescribable, gloomy. Her fortunes shattered, thousands of her noblest sons lying ou the field of battle or else hurriedly, roughly covered by the chilly sod, the earth dampened by the tears of wid¬ owhood and the heavens reech oiijg the sorrowing cries of des¬ titute orphanage. Mother mo jrning for children slain, and father bent with age lilting dim spectacled eyes to his God for needed help, and then glancing down the long narrow lane, hoping almost against hope, t: see him that was to be the stay of his declining years, making his way to the bright and happy home, to receive the loving embraces of a fond moth¬ er and the tearful benedictions of an aged father. Dark indeed were those days; but they were harbingers of a brighter morn. Stepping from the gloomv past to the bright, prosperous present of out south land, our hearts should beat with joy as we survey her wonderful acheivements aud her still advancing glories, Her progress on every fine is phenomenal, and she is prepar ing for still grander victories in the future. Coutrast the pres¬ ent outlook with that of two decades and see it there not much ot wlfrttr we nr«y justly proud. Grand old land of historic memories, the home of patriots as pure as ever blessed the world, the mother of statesmen who art* worthy to attend the courts of a Solo - raon, the mother of orators whose eloquence has been heard around the globe, the mother of poets whose tenderly pathet¬ ic strains are sung by the peo¬ ple of two continents, to you are bound, by the golden chain of filial devotion a million of earnest selfdenying hearts. For you rises morn and eve, thoiw* audsof anxious faithful prayers, in tbe answer of which prayers will descend upon you bre- zes of still greater prosperity from the hills of God, and your histo¬ ry in the future will be lighted up by tbe brighter smiles of uneqnaled ea’thly rappiness. Your crown of lejoicing will <>e geraed by your multitudinous merits, overhung by tin* ma¬ ny colored rainbow, laureled bv the flowers that bloom on your bosom and interwoven by the loving wreaths of your children.
