The following addresses were deliv red at the Union cemetery Observances of Memorial Day, and we publish them by request of a large number of those who were present and heard them, as well as many who were not: REV. 0.1:. Tommy’s ADDRESS. “New England’s dead, New England’s dead, On every bill they lie, On every mile or strife made red By bloody victory. “The land is holy where they fought, And holy where they fell. For by their blood that land was bought, The land they loved so well.” General Garfield said in Congress upon the first anniversary of the death of Abraham Lincoln: “There is a time in the history of men and of nations when they stand so near the veil that separates mortals from immortals, time from eternity, and men from God, that they can almost hear the breathings and feel the pulsations of the heart of of the Infinite.” It seems to me that the present is such a time,for here above the silent forms of your . comrades, our fathers, sons and brothers, we stand at the gateway of the eternal city, and in sacred and sweet memory mortals and immortals clasp hands “in the secret pres- ence of the most High, and under the shadow of the Almighty.” History reveals the fact that the armies of the nations have, in the past, many mes fought for conquest, that boundary lines might be extended, that the greed of kings for unlimited sway might be satisfied and the hopes fostered by their unholy ambition realized, but these whom we honor in this day waged war upon the side of righteousness, principle and conscience. To-day a grateful nation remembers her fallen sons. Today more than sixty mil- lions of people pause in the midst of their busy activities to do them honor. To-day the fires burn low in the factories that (lot our land in multitude as the stars in the heavens. To-day the shuttles and looms in our mills are hushed, while we gather about the grassy mounds where lie our soldier dead and spread thereon beautiful flowers, God’s sweet messengers of peace. Never a national day so hallowed as this, 01' one that should be more sacredly kept. It has been bought with a price, and that the blood of our brightest and noblest. mau- hood. Memorial Duy has many lessons. It speaks to the living and 0f the dead. Of the blue we are forced to say as we gather year by year, “Thin grow your ranks and thinner; You played death’s game for many a day, 0 But death to-day is winner.” The scene here witneSSed is but a copy of what is transpiring in the cities and hamlets of our broad land. At this very hour, in Mt..Hope cemetery, Norwich, N. Y., there is being placed by tender and loving hands the form of General S. R. Per Lee, a man who led forth from that city, in the earlier days of our civil war, the 114th Regiment, N. Y. S. V.; a man honored by that com- munity for his dignified manhood as well as for his unselfish devotion to his country. How striking the incident. How appropri- ate the scene. Sad indeed are the memories freshened by this day in the hearts of many of our people. There are, in this vast assemblage, those who donned the sable garments of mourning more than twenty-five years ago, when the fate of war robbed them of sons or tore from their breasts loving husbands. The shadows of darkness still abide and will not vanish until, in the light and glory of a blessed eternity, broken ties shall be reunited and God shall wipe away all tears and dispel all shadows. , There is in this day a lesson which should be faithfully taught our children. When they shall ask, as did the children in the camp of ancient Israel, “What mean these stones?” What mean these flowers ? What mean these empty sleeves? What mean these scarred forms? Let us lay aside all other duties for a little while and endeavor to give them a perfect interpretation and a. full answer. Show them the cost in blood of all that we enjoy to-day of national glory and prosperity. It- has been remarked to me since I came to this platform that prob- ably not one in ten in this presence could apply the words of song to that grand, soul- stirring national hymn, “The Star Spangled Banner.” Is this true? If so then go to your home and at once take up the lesson Give patriotism in song and word a larger place in your public schools, the fruit of which will be a healthier national life, and a stronger arm to meet the presumptuous foe from whateversource, who shall dare to ofier insult to our flag or menace to our institutions. Yesterday in Richmond, Va , representa- tives of the grey from all parts of the south gathered in large numbers to witness the unveiling of a statue in bronze to General Robert. E. Lee. Sentiment may make occasional display of the stars and bars, after which they shall be laid away as sombre relics of mistaken and misguided patriotism, but [here the speaker held up the flag in his hand] we will honor only this as the flag of an individual people. Let the bonds of Christian sympathy pre- vail and the love of Christ sway all breasts, then shall the blue and the grey be en- twined, the past forgiven, for “we be brethren.” ' What voice called you from busy shop, crowded store, broad farm and quiet home, , save the voice of patriotism? What love filled your breasts and made you strong to face shot and shell and death, save the love of country? What hand led you forth through dismal swamp and w00ded highland, across broad valleys and high mountains, save the hand of God ? What power made a Hancock, a Sheridan, :1 Sherman, a Garfield, a Grant, strong as the sturdy oak, invincible as the granite mountains, grand as the mighty sea. save a superhuman power, God given? What is it that calls you together to-day, and pulls so persistently at your heart- strings as with gentle hand and tearful eye you shall strew above the sleeping forms of your comrades these beautiful flowers, save the love that burns in the patriot’s breast? “In the beauty or the miles Christ was born across the sea, With a glory in his bosom That transflgures you and me; As He died to make men holy So these died to make men free.” nnv. w, c. nIannDson’s ADDRESS. Men of the Grand Army : It is not only a duty, but also a privilege and an inspiration to speak to you to-day. I know, indeed, that there is no real call for words. I know that in contrast with the touching ceremony of to-day, that picture everywhere repeated over our broad land as you and others of your comrades go in and out among the dwellings of the dead to drop the silent tribute of remembrance and respect ; in contrast with that picture all eloquence of tongue or pen or song were poor and worthless. But I know as well that this ceremony is one of a class all too prone, alas, to degenerate into mere commemora- tion, and we are thus forgetful of the weighty possibilities of the lesson, in this case, of that unselfisliness taught by the soldier’s grave; and, as well, of the import- ant part it may yet play in the future of our nation. I speak of unselfishness, and you perhaps may think that I do so solely because it is the church's work, knowing with me full well that, if he be true to his mission, no priest of the church of God has right to address his fellow men unless into that message he brings some undertone at least of the one great thing which his Master taught and lived before him. But it is rather, my friends, because unselfish- ness is our common ground, that one great subject, which, if indeed the preacher be chosen to preach, you most surely have been chosen to practice. You have doubtless read the statement that the Grand Army man’s work is done. He has finished his service. His record is closed. The past is his. But no greater mistake has ever been made. Your work is not done. It is far from being done. It is only well begun. The future also is yours. One midsummer day, some fourteen years ago, I stood in silent meditation by the en- closure in which, for beneath the lofty gild- ed ribs of the dome of the Church of the Invalides, in Paris, rest the ashes of the first Napoleon. On every side stretched the spacious buildings in which France, with almost motherly tenderness, has gathered and nursed the veterans, who, years ago, were martyrs in will, if not in deed, to offer their lives for their country. In the midst, alone in death as in life, lay the great com- mander for whom France, with an almost idolatrous worship, poured forth the offer- ing of her very best blood. It Was a place for thought, and, as I lingered, the wish arose that I might meet one of those valor- ous men who had followed the steps of the great emperor, and with their eyes gazed into his. Turning carlessly I saw near at hand two men engaged in close conversa- tion. The one a youngish man of thirty- five or forty, and the other old, wrinkled, scarred and gray. The thought flashed across my mind that here was the one I sought. Stepping closer I saw medals upon the old man’s breast, and among them a small silver circlet bearing the features of the first-N apoleon. At that moment the younger man turned to go and, seizing my opportunity, I stepped up, saluting the veteran, and asked if I might enquire where he had prooured the medal. What a trans- formation was effected by this chance inquiry of a stranger from the far off new world. A moment before-he was an old man, wrinkled and gray and bent with years. But now, as if the breath of a new youth surged through his veins, he drew himself up with a kind- ling pride that thrilled me through and through, and said as he touched the medal with irrepressible reverence: “H e gave it to me with his own hand.” That was a. supreme moment. For an instant the past seemed to live. It was brought back close to me. I could see and touch it. It was no longer dead. But what was there licre—fnothing but the close and living contact with the past? \Vas there nothing but the glamor of arms and the prestige of a glorious name? Ah! yes. There was a living personifi- cation of that greater thing, that GOdlike trait, which made no sacrifice too great, no offering too costly for the object of its choice. Here was a living France that thought not of itself—unselfishness incarnate. ‘ But, my friends, do we need to go abroad to know unselfishness? Must we learn it on the gory bridge of Lodi, amidst the sandy wastes about the Pyramids, or in the bloody path through the winter’s snow that marked the awful march from Moscow? No! N o! The heights of Vicksburg ; the jungles of the Wilderness; the bloody wastes of many a southern field all tell the self-same story. It was you men who stand before me now ; many of you weakened with disease, scarred with wounds, gray with creeping age, who went forth from farm, from home, from workshop—for what ?—for your own sake alone ?-—no, but for those who were left behind and for the country’s good—it Was you who taught the same great lesson, the lesson of unselfishness. Your work is nbt yet done. It is only well begun. Today there looms up before the country, which you saved, problems not yet fully faced by any nation upon earth. In the labor agitatious, in the conflict of classes, in the inrushing hordes of immi- grants that almost prostrate the nation's powers of assimilation, in all these there arise spectres with far]. more direful look poverty and wealth, in the friction of . than that which followed the first signal gun at Sumpter. ' Your work lies ahead. It is your privi- lege, your duty. having once taught unself- islmess when you left your all and went out, you knew not but to certain death, it is your privilege, I say, to teach your sons and sons’ sons, and through them the genera- tions beyond, the one thing which, saving the country once, can be its only saviour again, the only thing which can ameliorate the condition of the poor, reconcile man to man and solve the problems before which the nation stands to—day in fear. You can do this. You still live for the future. If outof these silent graves comes aught 0 inspiration it must tell you of the duty you cure, not to the past alone but to the future as well. You can teach us all by your every day life, by reason in your demands. by willingness to sacrifice everything rather than your priceless memory that your salvation of the land was above thought of gain. I see a mighty host, shadOWy and dim with silent trend and ghostly march. Away it streams in ceaseless majesty, rising and falling with stately swing. its phantom banners wavmg 1n the noiseless breeze, its muskets touched with the light of another world. Its ranks fill up from every camp- ing place, each lonely grave and bloody battlefield yields up its own, from each forsaken glade and sterile mountain side they came, and, as its rear guard swings this way, you, too. grown old and feeble in your time, fall in and on you move, a mighty host of every race and age, with one inspiring thought, With one majestic motive, that all-absorbing Godlike trait—unselfish- iiess—which to day finds no form more worthllv its own than that of tue man who wears the blue and bears the badge of the Grand Army on his breast. ———»———<<> REDDLVG’.

Wells, Jersey City. 00—- “Food for Thought.” That “whole wheat” contains more than any other grain to nourish and strengthen stomach, brain, and muscle, has been long held by physicians and dietarians, who have urged the daily consumption of Graham flour, Wheaten grits, and even wheat bran, to uivigoratc, regulate, and build up the system. In tl-ielight of actual results, the thinking public have learned to appreciate this important principle of diet, and at an opportune moment the skillfully prepared Itnannar appears which. while preserving all the nutritious and health-giving properties of finest wheat, at the same time is more palatable than oatmeal or any other cereal. In all its different uses for breakfast porridge, gems, griddle cakes, ctc., its peculiar delicate flavor is preserved, and on this account the great N. Y. Biscuit 00., com- prising all the largest cracker manufactur- ers of the East, have recently taken it up for wafers. The extent of its usefulness is surprising. Physicians are prescribing it for their patients, mothers find it invalu- able for their children, epicurcs prefer it to any other cereal, and the Yale crew have adopted it. on their training table. Its enthusiastic cndorscrs are many; among them, Marion Harland calls it “Delicate and Delicious," The Dietetic Gazette, “Most acceptable and whole- some,” The Doclor, of New York, “A dietary triumph, fit for the table of a king and capable of sustaining a laboring man.” -—————<+>——— Advice to Mothers. Are you disturbed at night and broken 0 your rest by a sick child suffering and crying with pain ofcutting teeth? If so send at once and get a bottle of Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup for Children Teething. Its value is calculable. It willrelieve the poor little But"- ierer immediately. Depend upon it, mothers, there is no mistake about it. It cures dysen- tery and diarrhoea. regulates the stomach and bowels, cures wind colic, softens the gums reduces inflammation, and gives tone and energy to the whole system. Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup for Children Teething is pleasant to the taste, and is the prescription of some of the oldest and best female nurses and physicans in the United States, and is for sale by all druggists throughout the world.
