Address of Hon. Daniel Agnew,
to the Returned Soldiers of
Beaver County:: Delivered on
the Fourth of July.
! Soldiers: On me bos boon laid the
pleasant -duty -of bidding you wel
come: In' behalf of jtfaM people] from
whom yon; separated In the darkest
hours of your country’s trials,' to per
il' yonr lives. on many a field of car
nage, I now bid yon "welcome, ihrice
welcome to ! thfdr grateful 'hearts, - 1
rejoice that I am tnehonoredinstru
ment to.salnte’ybn.in their nank ond
yet I fear their selection was mnortu
nate. Frail memory no longer gar*"
[ tiers up those treasures of thought,
! which should overflow', to welcome
the soldiers ictnrpi ] and oonvey.to
faint an adequate .impression ol their
esteem and gratitude. K , j r ; ; ..
But tbbngfa language may bang
■heavily on my lips, my heart glows
.witlf early, warmth when I welcome
you home, and ntter the honest trifa*
ate so* justly! due Itoyon. Iwould
not hse mere formspispeech br court
ly r phrases.- Oil, {no, ; every honest
heart, whose pulses have beaten in
unison- with our countryls cauße—fal *
teringand sinking tin the hoar of.’de
feat—then throbbipg high with vic
tory' and hbge-r-oyery one whq has
followed your long and toiling march*
es, and step bystepjtracked the trials
of our country in her hours of gloom,
will more than second all the praises
inyjioqrlips carispeak. ;
How could I, If I {would, recount all
the vast load ofj debt we owe to the
brave men who bared their bosoms
to the-, shock of war, and upon their
naked breasts received [the glittering
steel.. Ah, many a dying groan has
filled the nir,manya gurgling rill of
life-blood has dyed a hundred fields
with crimsoh stainsj and many a noble
spirit 'fled; from [its warm tenement in
those eventful {days of strite. .How
cah I overstate the merits [of
who bore! the battles’; burden'of oven
equal thoigiatngde wo owe to you ? ■
You remember that groat battle
fought four years ago, when upon the
fated 'field of Bull Bun the armies of,
freedom were driven back, routed and
broken; It was a dark day, and it
seemed as if God ’ bad forsaken our
cause. But, though, then wo saw it
not, “behind a [irowning Providence!
he wore a smiling faop;’’ and that dis
aster nerved every loyal heart, brac
ed every will,- and {fixed the. nation's
firm icsolve to [preserve the Union or
perish valiantly fighting. ■ The throe
years’men rushed to their country’s
rescue, and then many of you went
to the field. ! | | . * |
You remember. tpo, the dark hours
of 1862, when { thoj finest arfaiy that
"had .over trod the virgin plains of Ibis
1 Western Hemisphere—commanded by
'one whoso name let pityingaiier.ee
leave unspoken—driven back ijiioin
Pair Oaks to the James; and at last
deserting the Peninsula,,{foiled' and ,
, discorafitted, fell back upon Washing
ing—when the unfortunate Pope, aban
dpned by jealous : rivalry, reel disas-
I ter upon the the second field of Bull .
[Run , They were gloomy, days, when
a bold and resolute jibe, flushed, with
victory, .set loot upon Maryland,
threatening 1 the CapijLol;.a'nd reaching
into Pennsylvania, cqrrioa dismay and
terror in his traek.j Then it (was that
probably most [of you entered the field
to raisea.walliof bralvc anddetetmin
cd hearts bet weed thoj enemy and your
own dear State. |
You! heard [your country’s cry of
distress, arid though glohra settled dike
a funeral pall! over all her fortunes,
you faltered > not, but yoursclvcs
to the perilous service. They were
indeed times that tried mens’ souls-j—l
dark oyer head, dark unde j’foot—foes!
before you, foes behind yon, and black!
as raven night all around yOu. Thenj
It was that dislbyajtj- reared its snaky
head through out, the North, and hiss
ing defiance to lho*goyornment every-!
whore, almost succeeded jin blocking
the wheels of {way. How; then, can I;
laud too much that ribhlo spirit which]
.animated the bravo men who they vbl j
untoored intojthojfield. -■ !
Oh, noble ardor, equalling the mar-’
tyrs’ holy passiop —Oh, God-Hke[sa[c-|
irified; that freely gave itself a fansojm]
[tor a 6ountry’s dolivciarice. If ever
[the unsullied page of history shall
carry! down to posterity an examplobf
bright; unselfish, [[never-dying patriot*'
ism, that will, be the moat lustrous]
[which records the noble; the heroic
actions of a nation of freemen, dovot*
ing themselves to death rathor tban
that a single strir should fall dutl of
that ; brilliant constellation which
hums so brightly in the sky of bar
American Union. ; ] !!
| Yon followed riot to"the field,! like
'rierfs; some royal [conqueror to swell
his triumphs; or garland his bfows:
with [bon or—[and thento bo lost your
selves in < the eointnori masses .whiel
upheld his thrbnel' Far brighter anc
nobler was yOgraitn—the Union, ih(
Constitution [and the Laws. Ono p[eo
pie, bob country, [one future were eyei
Before your eycs-f|symbolized and por
| trayed in that glohorue flag which led
[you | through so mariy- ensanguiricc
1 fields, with varying fortunes—temper

feat [ What [are clowns, and diadems
apd'royal honors, to the sublime causi
of human rights, and to the happy
homes of the millions Whom your vai l
or has defended, protected arid saved ?
{There wore many bravo and patri
oiic hearts that beat beneath the ban
the leaves, and tlje siarjs of shbuloor
straps. To them was added thehbp
of promotion. But .what hope of per
sonal gain. what {preferment could ari
imatb tho'rank and file—men from the
farm, the shop, the counter; the desk,
and the forum, from every walk au 1
