Eter- nity alone can tell what a power at the throne of God were the prayers of the bondman. Only as we recognised his claim to manhood, did we advance. But then when we said " You are free ;" when we placed the musket in his hands, and made him that high type of a man — a soldier, we moved forward. The pillar of cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night were with us. The flag we bore was the symbol of freedom, and we had God's benedic- tion. Then it opened the Mississippi river on the birth...day of the nation ; then that birthday witnessed Lee's rapid flight from Gettysburg; when Meade followed him back as he re- crossed the river for the last time, it was with the flag of free- dom; when Hooker's starred division scaled Lookout, and fought above the mountain mists, it was under the flag of freedom; when Missionary ridge was swept by the advancing line, the old grave of a proslavery mission was won to free- dom ; Chattanooga's fastnesses were fortified imprcgnably for freedom ; when Sherman assailed Rocky face it was for freedom ; when he won the hard lines of Resacca it was with freedom ; Dallas and Kenesaw gave way to the advan- cing hosts of freedom ; Atlanta fell for freedom ; the adven- 14 turous marcli through Georgia — it was the signal of freedom to scores of thousands, and the auction block of Savannah is a trophy of freedom, before which, in years to come, men will wonder that a christian nation ever allowed such infamy; when Grant made Virginia a desolation, and sat down at Petersburg; when he swept through their works and into Richmond ; when the flower of the rebel power surrendered ; and when tiie rebel tyrant became a fugitive and a wanderer, the nations of the earth know that it was not until the nation- al Congress had declared that " slavery " was dead.
