Now why should such things be? A pri;c tical, sensible. statesmanelnp,should desire to bury in oblivion the end memory of our domestic dissensions. It teas a Roman Em peror, who when asked to erect Kik RIM to vengeance, to commemorate the death of Pisootho foil in civil war replied. "Private memories and hatreds engendered in civil strife should be forgotten, and public mon uments should commemorate foreign con quests, not domestic dissensions" When the Theban' conquered the Imeedemonians they created a brazen trophy in honor of the victory. A complaint vqmaile before the Amithycleonic Council, and tile noble response was, "let it be abolished, for it is not fitting that any veedrd shotild remain of discord between Greek and Greek." Should heathens and heathen nations surpass a Christian people in meroy,magnanimity and charity? Are the feeling. of personal re venge and hate to be subs - Muted for the obligations of the . ..
