It wiLSit lx)aiitiliil day, as fair ivs any that

was packeit with tcople ramjnmt ler tt.ir.
Net a man among them was there te speak a
word for his country, and the Hag of the
Union was nowliero te Le seen. The I'xchauge

Irem Its bread steps he addressed the sli out

enthusiasm of the poeplo. Tiiere Is net n llig
or plece of bunting In Montgomery that is
net in use, nor a inuii who la willing te liy it.
The Confederacy has taken the place which
the Union occupied here in 1N11. The rear

The old state house, where the gewrn

of the hill, but Its whlte marble front was
decorated by a man who wero the hlue nud

the Grand Army of the Republic. All the
