A reference was made to one of its members, who wns very devoted to its interest, nud it wait stated him^tlint “llo was one who had not yet got ready to ask pardon for the part lie took in the civil war, in lighting fu tile old llag, the Union,* stc. Wc regret to see such remarks as this at the present day. Our opinion of the American people is that they are not re quiring the min of the north, or of the bouth, to ui-k pardon for what they ilul in the mightiest struggle of modern times The appeal to the swi id was made by botn sides alter each hud been justified in Die foiuin of conscience, J2avh was true to its raising, and to the principles which had_been instilled into the minds of its population, and each stood ready to lay down life, if necessary, iu dt fence of. tho principles which it laid been taught. The war, ns we consider it, wns n means which nu overruling Providence used to bring about one of the great evpnts iu the world's history. The lighting which wns done between the (u nties of the north and of the south was aTmnguilicent exhibition i f valor and endurance. Both sections are now under a con men government. Both elect representatives to jointly admin- ibo affairs of that government. In Reded States Senate a member from Georgia has many right, anil is as pinch entitled to take part iu acts of government us a member from New York, Maine, Michigan or Oalaforuia.
