Over the Graves of Our Confederate Dead at Waynesboro Introductory Remarks by K O. Price, Esq Loxlies of the Memorial Association —Ladies and Gentlemen : With flowers in our hands a no sadness in our hearts, we have as sembied to pay the annual tributt to our honored dead. Tills is a noble custom inaugurat ed by Southern womanhood, which tact makes the day ail the mort sacred. It is a day for memory and for tears. A mighty nation bends in tearfu- reverence over the graves of it- lionored dead, and pays to noble dust the tribute of its ioye. There is no language to express the debt we owe those gallant son.- who died for us, we can but stanc by their graves, and in the hushed and hallowed siience, feelj whai speech has never told. I am proud to say that to a cer tain extent the battle lines of tht sixties are things of the past. Tht judgment of the appeal to arms has- been duly entered by Providence and loyally accepted by the people of the South. They have met the changes wrought by the sword as- becomes brave and honest sons of a common soil, and putting on the bieast plate ot honesty and loyalty, they stand to-day for the highest ideals of Christian citizenship. The smoke from the battle bat- now been doing service in the clouds for 35 years; within that pe riod fraternity has taken the piact of strife, and former foes now sit ii life’s deepening twilight, and re count the deeds done in the brave days of the sixties without the slightest trace of bitterness 01 hatred. I think one of the grandest ex hibits that Providence will make tc the new century, whose rosy dawn is almost visible, will be the mat who wore the blue and the mat who wore the gray, with then hearts and hands joined, waiting il honorable brotherhood down the declining pathway of age, speaking with equal pride oi the progress and i>rosperity of a glorious re-unii- ed country. But no progress or prosperity will ever make the people of the Soutl forget tnose gallant sons who dieo for the lost but hallowed cause. And the grizzled old warriors wh< are with us to-day, representing tht armed chivalry of a once proud peo pie, may heaven’s richest blessings ever attend them, their brilliant story of daring and defeat will bt transmitted to you by the orator ol tne day, whom it is now my pleas ure to introduce, Hon. T. VV. Hard wick, of Sandersviile, will now ad dress you: Ladies of the Memorial Associa tion of Burke county, Veterans 01 the Confederacy, Ladies and Gen tlemen: —When the Greeks return ed Irom Marathon, all Athens re joiced with the triumphant living, and honored the brave and galiani dead. Home honored her great captains,Hcipio, Pornpey and Cae^ai with such splendid and imposing triumphs that the historical recital of their magnificence seems to tl.e astonished reader some dream ol more than Aiadin splendor, and the return ol the English fleet to Brit ain’s waters after the battle of Tia- falga was a blaze of incomparable splendor, and the worn body of tht heroic Nelson was laid to rest Amid imposing ceremonials In Westmin ister Abbey by the side of theKiDgs of the country he nad served so well. But, Marathon was won! Mil- tiudes and the Greek* triumphed. The Roman captains whom I have named were returning from long aud splendidly successful cam paigns of foreign conquest,and“were bringing in triumph home, The spoils of unnumbered cities To deck the shrines of Rome,” and England’s mighty admiral had died as he had lived, in all the gla mour of glorious and unbroken suc cess! We have met to-day to celebrate the return of no victorious army; we have gathered,not as the Greeks gathered, nor as the Romans, nor as the Britons to celebrate with clanging trump and martial splen dor some triumph of our arms, but with true hearts as the sparkliDg lewids, with pure and consecrated memories as the embroidered clotbs of gold, with religious reverence in the place of military enthusiam, we have met to commemorate the gal lant lives and heroic deaths of those beloved sons of our South land, whose bones are scattered all over Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic smells like peppermint candy and is “just as gooa”but a different purpose.

This liniment is for sale by H.B. McMas- ter. t,and as far North as Pennsylvania ir d Ohio, who were not conquerors, and yet, icere not conquered! I do cot think it would be appro priate to this occasion, since it has- been done so often, and can be done so easiiy, to cal! your attention to the numerous instances in which Southern valor proved superior t( Northern numbers; to show yon how more recent history, as the bit ter prejudices of sectionalism have tied gradually away, has done full justice to the bravery and valor ot ’he boys who wore the gray, but if these days in which political apos acy and the greed for Northern gold transform some who ought to be true, into modern Judases, and cause some of the would be leaders of the so-cailed new South in their blind worship of the golden caif,anc iu their mad scramble for politics ulace, to impugn the mo’tives anc attack the cause of these dead sons >f the old South in whose honor we nave have gathered to-day. I deen it a duty 1 owe to the sacred dead, to your kindred and to mine, to sai a few words in defence of those whose l;ps are now forever stilled, who sealed their faith with theii blood, and died calling on the great Ruler of the Universe to witnes.- the justice of their cause! It has become too frequent in our day and time for men of Southern oiood and lineage, would-be leaders of our people, to apologetically as sert that our people iought lor a cause that they believed to be right. Many years ago I heard an oratoi upon an occasion lure this make this stateineut.and boy as I was, im biood burned and tingled at the covert insuit to our people, so cun ningly veiled in the imphasis giver to this one word—beiieved. I think a distinguished gentle man from Virginia, for expressing in terse and pointed words, my sen timents upon an expression of this kind. Taunted,uot many years ago, upon the floor of our national con gress, by sneering detractors, with slurs upon his Southern biood and war record, he was at iast goadeo into a reply by the gruding conces sion that the gentlemen from Vii- giuia might have fought for a caust ne believed to be right.”“Mr. Speak er,” said he, “the gentlemen from Ohio infamously slanderes me, 1 fought for a cause that I know to be right!” Consider, for a moment, the pe culiar status of the two sections at the beginning of the civil war. Mason and Dixon’s iine, once the important line that separated the territories of Pennsylvania ano .Maryland, at first friendly colonies of the same crown, and afterwards sister states iu the same great re public, bad in 1861 become the boundary line of two great ana pow erful sections, whose interests wen antagonistic,and whose people were nostile, aud were soon to face each other in the bloodiest conflici known to history. To the South ol this line lay the richest and fairest domain God had ever given to man. while the region of the North, though less favored by nature, \va- mhabited by a great, restless and energetic people, wnose ceaseless industry and untiring energy had caused its less fertile fields to bloom and had planted on every stream some station of manufacturing in dustry! On the one side of this line lay a puritanical civilization, on the other, a feudal system; on the one side, commercial wealth, manufac turing opulence; on the other agri cultural independence; on the one side austerness of spirit had found expression in the enactment and enforcement of the celebrated blue laws of New England; on the other freedom, liberality and even laxity of opiniou bad as its exponents, a hard-riding, pleasure-loving aristoc racy, with whom life was held cheaper than the smallest insult to sensitive honor! In other words there were two systems, two civil izations, as seperate and distinct as night and day, as water and wine. In New England and the lvorth, there had been exhibited the evo lution of tbe puritan civilization, grand in its way,, and stern and un relenting in its character; the same spirit that had withstood the en croachments of royalty, and resist ed the oppressions of tyranny in the Old World,existed in the North, the same blood that had poured it self out so lavishly in the cause of the parliament against King Charles, wended its slow and reso lute course through gthe veins of New England and the North; it had come over m the historic ‘’Mayflow er,” and had planted itself with sol emn chant and serious prayer in rhe new born world; it had cast the obnoxiously taxed tea into Boston harbor,fired the first gun at Lexing- ! od, and lit the fires of iiberty that were to enlighten the world! But in the South, the old South, (God bless her hallo wed name!) there existed still another civiliza tion; while the weary and careworn puritan had sought refuge from his >ld world troubles in the North, to the South had come a vastly differ ent class of settlers! Here had come the younger sons of noble and illus- rious families in the old world,who were seeking to mend their broken fortunes in this marvellous “El Do rado” beyond the Western Seas, Here the traditions or the old coun try still lived and were still cherish ed, and we find the Second Charier proclaimed King iu Williamsburg before he was in Loudon, Here is a climate unequalled for its mild- ness aud heaitnfulness, and on soil unexcelled for its fertility and fruit- fulnes, these cavaliers of modern days built up their system. Year a ter year aud decade after decade, their prosperity increased until their feudal system grew beyono the bounds of any example in an cient or modern history. Almosi every plantation was a baronial es tate, almost every farm house a cas tie, and every Southern gentleman was a veritable lord, and to add to their happiness, filling their lives with joy, and blessing their homes, were the ladies of the old South, the product of generations of refine ment and of centuries of culture,the angels of the sick, the queeDS of so ciety. fitted by birth, training and education to adorn the highest plac es in the land. With such inspira tion as this, small wonder is it, that these cavaliers of the old South were “No laggards in love, Or dastards in war.” that although to New England had belonged the honor of firing tht first musket for freedom, yet to the South had been due the successful conduct and glorious termination of the revolution; that in peace,hei sons had woven the immortal fa bric ot the constitution and filled the high offices of the nation; that, in war, they had covered the stars and stripes with eternal glory on land and sea, had crippled tbe com merce, and had captured, or con quered in fair fight, the finest ves sels of the English navyr had van quished the most highly disciplined soldiery of the age, during the rev olution; had defeated and slain the naughty Paekinham at New Or leans, and borne the ensign of the republic with heroic valor across the burning plains of Mexico, and planted it at last in triumph iu the ancient capital of the Montezumas! So different were these two sys terns, and so antagonistic were their interests that many quarrels sprang up between tl\em, of these the most important arose over the slavery question, but, to my mind, the mer its of that question are not involved in a defence of the South’s legai aud constitutional position, for the reason that the quarrel at last be come so bitter that the Southern states determined in the exercise of what they considered their sov- erign rights to withdraw from the Union and form a seperate govern ment of their own, and it therefore follows, that, iudepenaent of the merits of the slavery quarrel, inde pendent of either the wisdom or policy of secession,if our people had the right to secede, any attempt to co-erce them to remain in the Un ion was tyranny, the exercise of mere brute force without legal right to do so. While ine ordinances of secession were being passed, the New York Tribune at that time the leading or gan of the Abolition party, declared editorially, tnat the states ought to be allowed to depart in peace, as they had that right under the fed eral contitulion, and this view is overwhelmingly sustained by histo ry. The one maD, above all others, who was the author of the federal constitution, and who has justly been styled its father, was James Madison of Virginia—in number 39 of The Federalist, Mr.Madison said* and mark you at that time no dis pute existed between North and South, “The constitution will be a federal and not a national act, as those terms are understood by ob jectors, the act of the people form ing so many independent states, and not one aggregate nation, as is obvious from the single considera tion that it is to result neither from the decision of a majority of the people ol the Union, nor from that It preserves the flesh when lacer ated or wounded in any way. Stops the bleeding, stops the pain and heals quicker than anything. That is what Dr, Tichenor’s antiseptic does. Try it when you get hurt. Ask druggists for it. of a majority of the states; it must result from the unanimous consent of the several states that are par ties to it—each state in ratifying tbe constitution is considered as a soveriegn body, independent of ai) others, and to be bound only by ifl own voluntary act. “Patrick Henry the great revolutionary orator, op posed its ratification by the people of Virginia, on the ground that the statement in its preampie, “We, the people of the United States,” meant a consolidated and not a confeder ate government. In answer to this objection, Mr. Madison said, “vvh< are the parties to it? The people, but not the people as composing thirteen sovereignties;were it a con soiidated government a majority o the people wouia be sufficient foi its establishment, aud as a majority nave ratified it already, the remain ing states would be bound by the act of the majority even if they re probated it. Sir,no steie is bound by it, as it is, except by its own con sent.” As a further proof of the meaning and intent of the conven tion that framed the constitution the minutes of that body show that Randolph of Ronoake submitted tc. it a series of resolutions embodying what was knowu as the Virginia plan, the first resolution of whicl read as follows: “Resolved, that it is the sense of this body that a na tional government, consisting of a supreme legislative, judiciary ano executive ought to be established,” and that when these resolutions were reported back to the commit tee of the whole, on JiMie 20tb, 1787 on motion of Mr. Ellsworth, the words National Government, were stricken out, aud the words, “Gov eminent of the United States, sub stituted therefor. After tbe con vention adjourned, and the consti tuiion that resulted from its labors was submitted to the several states for ratification or rejection, its rati fication was opposed in sev eral of the states on the ground that by adopting it the several states might surrender their sover eignty, and every leading national ist, including Madison,, Jay ano Hamilton, strenuously denied it! This opposition was, however, only overcome in several of the states by the distiuct agreement ano promise that several amendments would be immediately 7 adopteu which would clearly and unmistak ably guard against the usurpation of power by tbe federal govern ment—of these the most important was the tenth amendment, which provided “That every power not by this constitution expressly delegat ed to the United States” and of this amendment. “It is consonant with the second article in our present confederation, by which each state retains its freedom, sovereignty,and independance, and every right not by this confederation expressly del egated to the United States, in con gress assembled.” It is clear, then, both from the constitution itself, and from a his tory of the political events sur rounding its formation and adop tion, that the union was a confed erate republic, with delegated pow ers. Washington calied the con stitution a compact—so did Alexan der HamiLou —aud all the states men of that period agreed that it was a government with delegated powers,having only such rights aDd powers as were given to it, and be stowed upon it,by the several states who were its sponsors and creators, aDd I wish to ask, who will attempt to assert or maintain that mon strous proposition, as horrible aud impossible in politics as iu religion, that the creature is, or can be, supe rior to its creator! Not only does history demonstrate the sovereignty of the states after the adoption of the federal consti tution, but it also bears witness to the universal acceptance of that doctrine by both North and South for many years. In 1798 the “Alien and sedition acts”of congress,which authorized the president to order out of the United States any for eigner whom be might regard as a public enemy, were promptly pro tested against and nullified by the legislatures or Kentucky and Vir ginia. In December, 1814, the New England States becoming dissatis fied with the conduct of the eecond war with England, met in conven tion at Hartford, Connecticut, dele gates being present from Massachu setts,Rhode Island,Connecticut, Ver mont and New Hampshire, and al though the proceedings of that con vention were held behind closed doors, but it is evident both from The greatest triumph of modern chemistry is Dr.Tichenor’s Antisep tic.

In 1832 South Carolina passed an act that nullified an op pressive tariff law. For this she was threatened with war. but after wad ing through peace commissions and compromises, was finally lorgiven It 1859 eleven Northern states as serted their sovereignty by passing which not only nullified the provis ions of the Fugitive Slave Act oi longress, but even abrogated a sol emn provision of the federal con stitution itself, and yet, in 186I,with i consistency most remarkable, iu order to enforce tbe one, and repeal the other, they assumed the hypo critical grab of “preservers of the Unon,” and the very states who had first violated the compact ol confederation, appeared in arms to enforce it. In 1814 the right ol New England to secede was unquestion ed, and yet, in 1861 under the same constitution and laws, it had be come “treason” for the South to do so. Might has again iu tbe history of tbe uniyerse proven superior to right, and I bow to the will of tht Great Ruler of of heaven and earth and rejoice that we have once mort a re-united and happy country ;that the South is in tne house of her lath ers ODce more, and is there to stay, hut, thank God, she is not there iD sack-cloth and ashes, debased, hu miliated and apologetic, but with her old proud mein, conscious of the justice and fairness of her cause, willing to forget in a generous and manly spirit, and with her great heart throbbing with ioye and sym paty for the noble sentiment that aot long ago prompted the chiel magistrate of the nation, himself a federal veteran, to lay his tribute ol nouor and respect upon the bier oi her immortal dead! She is back, with no marks of dishonor upon ner escutcheon, but with the ever abidiDg memory shat_the brightest pages of American history havt heen written by her sons, that there is not a star iu the glori ous banner of tbe union whose lus tre has not been increased by the deed of her sons, and not a stripe that has not been bathed in her no blest blood! She remembers that less than two years ago her sons marched side by side with the sol diers of the North against a com mon foe aud demonstrated once more in generous and friendly em ulation the brilliancy of southern chivalry, that on land her gallant son, the knightly Wheeler, won the chief laurels of the war, while on sea a son of her younger generation lead tbe forlorn hope at> Santiago, covering himself with glory,and ex emplifying once again the desper ate quality of southeru courage. It has been customary upon occa- casions like this, to eulogize those magnificent cheiftains, who with splendid courage, and matchless skill, prolonged the contest,uneqhal though it was through long years. Victory after victory did they wid, all that genius could ccncieve ana courage execute did they accom plish, through four long years of terrible war they followed tbe Southern cross with unfaltering tread through seas of blood and car nage. The God of-hattles had de creed that they should not succeed, but iu his infinite mercy had or dained that they should not be van quished by superior valor iu battle but by famine and want, that they should oe overcome, but not by bet ter generalship or braver soldiers, but by money, numbers and sup plies. No feeble words that my pen could trace, or my tongue utter, could add one single leaf to the un fading chaplet that adorns the brow of that mightiest general of hi3 age —the immortal Lee; Nor words are beautiful enough, sweet enough, or even sacred enough, with which to attempt to enshrine the memories of Stonewall Jackson, and Albert Sydney Johnson, but I invoke the presence and assistance of that “spirit that doth prefer before all temples the heart upright and pure,” that I may be enabled to en twine my simple laurel wreath about the brow of the lowly Confed erate private, to fame unknown,and may place, with reverent hand, my modest and unassuming tribute up on bis humble and unmarked grave!
