enes of the Confederate revolutionary drama. A drama which had a continent for its stage, armed millions for its actors and the world for spectators. The Anglo-Saxon spirit. In the light of subsequent events, it seems passing strange that so few of our political prophets, either North or South, foresaw the vast proportions tlly realized that both had inherited from the sturdiest race on earth, that dogged, tenacious, never say die, fight to the death spirit that has stamped the Anglo- Saxon as a conqueror wherever he has come. A race before whose achievements the deeds of the Macedonian and the Roman pale. A race that has fought more battles, stood ll never realize it. No other people could have stood the test and passed the ordeal successfully. But the law-abiding, courageous, determined spirit of the Anglo-Saxon triumphed at last. The people of the South, trained as men were never trained before, to lessons of danger, self-sacrifice, self-reliance, and patience, have met

lions of people, destitute of arms and arsenals, shut off from the outer world by a rigorous blockade, ringed around by steel and fire, took twenty-two millions by the throat—a people rich in all appliances of war, with ports wide open, and Europe pouring in recruits—took twenty-two millions by the throat and for four long years shook them with such vehement fierceness that twice we came within an ace of wrestling from them an honorable peace. We fought as ever fights the freemen of Anglo-Saxon strain, and in good faith we have accepted the stern arbitrament of the sword as settling once and forever the practical interpretation of the Constitution. Such acceptance is all that honorable men can yield, and all that brave men should ask. But when the cheap patriot of the press or of the rostrum, insolent by reason of success won by others, goes still further and demands that we shall now confess the unrighteousness of our contention, his must, indeed, be a dastard's heart who wo
