Shall the foreign-born distance the native in the chivalric race, and wear his wreath ? Shall these be our heroes and posterity's delight ? Not thus has it been. Our best blood has reddened river and turf To-day it tinges with manly pride the cheek of tens of armed thousands, as they gaze on " The Dear Old Flag. " Whose Husband, or Brother, or Son, is too good for our Country's need? Who will talk of price or cost, who will presume to estimate values, when Liberty, Authority, and Religion are a...t stake ? Consider the inevitable consequences of this strife, 6 even in event of onr triumpli I The excessive mar- tial spirit, which spares an arm. From a deadly struggle to shake defiance at Intervention — a war-loving spirit that is now fashioning the career of our children and of generations unborn — the National Debt, surpassing comprehension, whose pressures are yet to be felt — the palsy of Prosperity and the dejDreciation of Property — forms of inertness and decay — the Na- tional Loss, which must include the results of all our victories, for Rebeldom is a part of our Repub- lic — the prolonged agonies of captives, of wounded, mutilated and sick — the multitude slain — the deso- lation of homes — the ruin of character— the stand- ing libel upon Christianity by this mortal variance between those joined by Commerce, by Lineage and Language, by Marriage, by Historic Glories, and by the grander affiliations of the Church of Christ — this is a glimpse of results that cannot be escaped.
