On this day, 2(>lh of April—e day for
ever associated with the beloved memory
o( Mrs. Charles J. Williams—the ladies of
ihs Colnmbris Memorial Society desire^o
ley a wreath npon her grave.
Sister, Mother, Friend! What words
ora do Jastice to oar Love and to our
Loss. We, who have long bad the privi
lege of working with so noble a coadjutor,
oan now more then ever realize the im
mortality of the soul. Strength end wis
dom had been given her, end these, with
all her other gifts and graces, were freely
spent for her friends, and especially in
tha service of the Southern Cause. We
remember her at the Wayside Home,
cleansing and dressing the wounds of the
soldiers, and strengthening them with
heartfelt words and heartwarm holp. We
remember her when the tears for her own
great saorifloe were felling like diamonds
ever her still lovely feoe,giving sympathy
and help, more preoiooa then diamonds,
to those who ao greatly needed them.
And when the Cause seemed lost—when
men thought that nothing more conid bo
done; that the beroe* and martyrs of tho
Sooth had giv*n their lives in vain—there
arose in her bosom the determinat on to
Yesterday afternoon a flag was present
ed to Columbus Guards by Mrs. L. B.
Comer, oue of our most prominent ladies
—one who has boen a warm friend of the
oompany—oue who io the first years of
the late war shared the trials of the or
ganization, and duriug the struggle cared
for its wounded. Though ,a Northern
lady, she has proved a true daughter of
the Southern land.
The City Light Guards kindly partici
pated in the ceremonies.
The two companies united in a battal
ion, commanded by Oapt. Shepherd and
headed by the Columbua Guards' brass
bund, proceeded to the Open House,
where the presentation took plaoe. The
two companies oocnpied front seats in
the hall, which elsewhere was thronged
with ladies end gentlemen.
Mra. Comer, attended by Capt. Shep
herd, the officers of the Guards' end City
Lights and a dozen of the moat charming
ladies of onr oily, took seats on the stage,
the band playing the while. The flag
was held by Mr. John King, the paint
er of the 8. W. Maobine Shops, in tbe
rear.
ADDRESS OF MRS. L. B. COMES.
Mrs. Comer Btepped forward and Urns
spoke:
Capt. Shepherd—Permit me the honor
and pleasnre of presenting the gentlemen
of the Columbus Guards with a banner of
peace, not a flag of war, wrought by an
artist member of the Company under
Capt. Paul J. Semmes commanding.
[Here the flag was unfurled by Mr.
King.]
Thrilling memories cluster as laurel
leaves wreathed npon the brow of fame,
around the name “Colnmbua Guards.” It
speaks of noble, valiant men, who once
were here, as you are now, with hearts
beating like ‘'muffled drums” the silent
march of time—men who lived for truth
and right, and died for right, and whose
Boldierly mantle has fallen upon the
youthful and respected Columbus Guards
of 1874. May this banner long wave be.
fore the reveille of war iB again heard in
our land.
BEPLY OF CAPTAIN W. 8. 8HEPHIBD
He returned thanks in appropriate
words to tbe graoions lady who had, both
in war and peace, proved the kind friend
of the oompany. Her name would ever
be inscribed in living letters upon the
hearts of the company; ao that, when
bodiea had crumbled, it might then bo
traced in their dust.
Ho thon handed the flag to Sergeant
Robert Wood, n one-armed Confederate,
wLo had been elected “Color Bearer,
stating that it wee his duty to oars for it,
keep it sacred, and uphold it in times of
peril.
SWORD AND BASH TO CAPT. SnEPUERD.
Second Lieut. T. W. Grimes then ad-
vaucing to tho front, said: Capt, 8hep
herd, it gives me pleasnre to present yon
on the part of the Columbus Guards, with
thiB sword. Tbe Blaek Prince at Creoy
never «on his spurs more worthily than
yon have gained from your oomndes this
token of soldierly valor.
Brevt. Lieut. C. B. Grimes then said
“Capt. Shepherd—It affords me pleasure
to present to yon this beautiful Bash, pra
seated by Maj. A. B. Calhoun, an honor
ary member of the company, as a token
of his esteem for yonrself and friendship
for tho organization.”
The presentation was a total surprise to
Captain S., who was so tnnoh affeoted, be
could only bi icily express his thanks.
OTHER ADDRESSES.
Mrs. L. B. Comer then expressed her
thinks to tbe City Light Guards for tbeir
demonstration, and for the generous,
kindly sympathy existing between the
two companies.
First Lieutenant W. A. Little being
londly called for, said: “The Columbus
Guards and City Light Guards are con
gratulated .by the elegant lady becauee
they are friends. Why should they he
other? They nerxed under the same flag,
fongbt for the same cause, battled ou the
same fields, and tbe dead of eaoh lie eide by
Bide. Can we be other than friends when
snoh ties and memories bind ns together?'
Loud and universal calls were made
for Major A. it. Calhoun, but he failed
to respond, much to the regret of the
large audienoe.
The companies then reformed, and
then ou tbe streets, with mu'ud salutes,
were dismissed to their respective armo
ries.
THE FLAG
is a beautiful white silken banner, with
the oc at of arms p i tad thereon, and Gen.
P. J. itemmes, the former commander of
the Guar is, wi.b drawn sword, acting as
eeutiuel. Above is th« Confederate
motto—Deo Vindice. Ou tbe oorinthieu
columns supporting the arch in which ap
pears the words “Wisdom,” “Justice”
trad “Moderation.” The painting was
done by Mr. John King, an ex-member of
the Columbus Guards. The execution is
excellent.
The eword is a beautiful one, with gol
den scabbard and silver hilt. On a sil
ver Bhield appears this: “Presented to
Capt. W. 8. Shepherd by the Columbus
Guards, April 25th, 1871.”
Tbe sash is an elegant one of red silk,
sent to Major Calhoun from Germany.
The compliment from him is most highly
appreciated.

Onr factories paid out yesterday to op-
[OonUnued.]
These last suggest iona as to what oan
and must bo dono, cover pretty much all
ihe ground.
It should be the effort of Christian pa
rents to check—yen, forestal thia evil in
the early years of children. If they tell
you that God's ancient people drank wine,
tell them for what occasions mainly it was
allowed. Tell them, moreover, that
the miserable stuff that is made now’-
a-days is not like the pure oorn and grape
juice of the Jews, but a noxious com
pound, dangerous to body, mind and soul.
Teach these things iu tho nursery, and
they will bo remembered afterwards iu tha
halls of oomtneroial and literary men.
You, ycung men, who take your dram
every morning, quit it, I beg of you, aa
you value your life, yea, your immortal
aoul. You are plaoing your soul in jeop
ardy by this course.
Last year n young man, a member of
this church, told me that he was in the
habit of taking just a small dram every
day. Sometimes, he said, he took it
twice, aud on cold days three times a day.
I was astounded at his statement, and be
gan to expostulate with him, when he
said, “why, Bro. Kendrick, I know two
dozen of the best members of the church
who do the same thing."
Ho Baid he would call no names, bnt
could do it, and if they could thus in -
dulge without injury, he thought he
oould.
I was almost dumbfounded,yet Ihegged
him to bivak off the habit, and assured
him that if he did not, it would break
him in more Henscs thau one.
I do know what effect my entreaties
have had or may have upon him. I pray
that God’s restraining grace may save him
—bat oh! brethren, how much of his sin
lies at your door—you who have set snoh
au example ?
Talk about duty in this matter 1 . Our
first duty relates to ourselves. Are we
dear? Has this Church a right record
on this subjectf No, A*o, No! I was
told when 1 first assumed the pastoral
care of this church, that there was one
subject that had best bo handled very del
icately, and that was tho liquor subject,
said bnt little. I did not want to seem
fire brand, or a distuber of the ecolesi*
astical peace.
But, brothren, ecclesiastical peace is
sometimes spiritual torpor, is almost death
—and oftentimes needs disturbing.
Shall I stand back and see an evil of
this kind in the church and not rebuke it?
Nay, if I could I would rebuke with the
words and power of Paul, who rebnked
tho evil Rpirit in the maid and said, “I
charge thee come out of her."
If we would do our duty as Christians
the reform must commence with our
selves. We must purify ourselves of the
unholy thing—rid ourselves of an ele
ment that is cursing the human race, and
then can we set about reforming others.
Then can we go to the tempted-fallen in
ebriate and lead him into a life of sobrie-
ty.
God’s blessing ou those men who are
trying to do this thing. Whatever be
their name or organization—they are
Good SamaritaiiH and Angels of Mercy to
the stumbling and fallon.
What shall we do ? Abstain from oil
use of wines ond liquors, except as iu re
ligious observances and cases of physical
weakness and prostration. Bo conscien
tious about it; don’t buy bitters simply
because you like tbe taste, for the poison
of asps is in it.
If you cannot break yourself of the
dangerous habit otherwise, sign a pledge,
or go to the country and work on a farm,
where you will not be likely to meet with
temptation.
Then, as public men, as citizens, as vo
ters, coat your franchise against retailing
of ardent spirits except by drug stores,
and on a physician’s certificate.
Let public sentiment be agaiust it.
Let the churches be orthodox on this
subject—not only in theory but in prao
tioe, and suffer uo dram drinker or dram
sellers in its membership. Let her offi
cers be pure, sober men. And thus the
civil and religious opposition, with a rig
id social animosity against it, may con
spire to lesson the euormity of this evil,
Yea, by proper combined and continued
opposition, drunkeuness and its attend
ant miseries may be bauished from our
land.
Tho women—God bless them and help
them—can do much, very mnch towards
effecting this great personal and national
redemption. Let the young ladioB act on
warning utterod by Theodore Cuyler, of
Brooklyn, who said, “Young Ladies,
don't lean on the arm that leans on the
barroom counter."
Let the mothers take care of tbe chil
dren, and the wives can better take care
of their husbands.
Oh, may God graciously show us all our
duty iu tl i; important matter, and ena
ble ub to a ulk therein, for his name’
sake. Amen.
