" Brethren, your mission is almost accomplished. The long, long weary day is almost passed away. When your centennial shall arrive, not a shackled slave will stand on the soil of the United States of America, and, if I do riot much mistake, the entire civilized world will have cleansed itself of the foul blot that has stained the century, otherAvise so significant of pro- gress. And to-night the nation rejoices with you — rejoices over that which is as significant of the future as your experien...ce is of the past. To-day, at twelve o'clock, in the harbor of Charleston, the stately forts, the formidable earthworks, the great circles of cannons which announced to the world that the slaveholders' Rebellion was inaugurated, have pealed in a thundering burial salute over its grave. To-day, the precious symbolic flag, whose downward fluttering told of national shame and humiliation more bitter than death, winged its glittering way to the summit of a flag-staff", from which its flaunting folds proclaim that Union and Liberty are one and indivisible, now and forever.
