o lEU^iPi o ]sr BY GENERAL GEORGE B. MCCLELLAN.
All nations have days sacred to the remembrance of joy and of grief They have thanksgivings for success, fasting and prayers in the hour of humilia- tion and defeat, triumphs and paeans to greet the liv- ing and laurel-crowned victor. They have obsequies and eulogies for the warrior slain on the field of bat- tle. Such is the duty we are to perform to-day.
The poetry, the histories, the orations of antiquity, all resound with the clang of arms ; t...hey dwell rath- er upon rough deeds of war, than the gentle arts of peace. They have preserved to us the names of he- roes, and the memory of their deeds, even to this dis- tant day. Our own Old Testament teems with the narrations of the brave actions and heroic deaths of Jewish patriots, while the New Testament of our meek and suffering Saviour, often selects the soldier and his weapons, to typify and illustrate religious heroism and duty. These stories of the actions of the dead, have frequently survived in the lapse of ages, the names of those whose fall was thus com- memorated centuries ago.
