ORATION OF GENERAL HOWARD
Cr.rrv,ilt.T.,.. .1 t'tly
On the Fourth of July, there stood too
riiiallty hosts confronting Niel] other on the field
of GettystArg. One led by Lee and the boasted
chivalry - , had sue , ciiiided in penetrating into the
heart of the inost fertile section nt thct moat fer
tile State, and had marked its course by'the light
of burning muses. and die wasted barrenness of
f ru itful fields. Its path was that of death, its
mark destruction. The evil genius of injury ap
peat:ed to have entered into the souls of thin mass
of slave defenders ; but unlike the de de of S cr ip.
tare, they were not content IA ith tearing them
selves. but vented "their predihetion for mischief
upon all around them. Their avowed object wan
to penetrate to Philadelphia, tad from its scealtii
to seize and plunder the rich stuns w Inch it wan
known to possess. They reiailied the neighbor
hood of fiettplinra, and halted there for rest

their 'misdirected ilibrts 4ld have availed but
little; and had the safiity tf the State depended
o
upon their ellorts, up citiee would have been
sacked, despite their mightiest efforts.:
But other help um: nigh. The Army `a the
Potomac arrived while tit, libel hordes were
•resting ,itt sleep, and when on the morrow the
shock of war took place, it was against a rock of
veterans, andbit a stack- of reeruit4 that Lee's
artily hurled itself. It - was forced back. Upon
the• plains and hills %here to-day _there was
assembled a multitude to Celebrate the aquiver.

feated-and chattered, our State was sawed, and
the little town of Ihett;.sburg takt;t its place
among the Aibeia4. Marengo., Loins, and Water
loos of hi..tor}
Ilut now the seen, Is. changed. The clash of
arms is hashed, the ',ter n conflict of 1.01 18 glie;
ceeded,hy the gentle calm of I'llol. 1..11011 an
immense platform is seated the Governor, with
ninny of the moat famous of our citizens. Gene
ral 0. 0. Ifuward ails to his right; lie is the
orator, his left is grouped with national heroes.
There to the extreme lett flunk is a hand ,play
ine That spot is' rOnderod memorable, for there
the heroic General Reynolds breathed his last.
Who would have supposed that so great a soul
had died where that sound of gay music and
ila7uts are now filling the air? But we can pur
sue that parallel no further. Every spot is fa
•mune for some action that now forms a page of
history.
Let us now speak of facts. The various heads
of State Departments, the municipal officers from
all parts of the Commonwealth, the officers of the
Army and Navy, beaded by the orator of the day,
General Oliver 0. Howard, the Christian soldier, -
were seated upon a special platform. Around
them, in accommodations prepared for the pur
poseovere arrayed the vast audience, A num
ber of bands, stationed at various parts of the
ground, continually discoursed patriotic airs.
Thbugh the number of disbanded soldiers was so
great, yet a more decorous and orderly assembly,
considering its size, we have never seen.
After some preliminary exercises, his Excel
lency, the Governor, arose and made one of his
characteristic addresses. fiti. desired not to
dwell on the momentous events-which transpired
on the Sacred spot on which he stood, so much as
to speak of the mighty achievements of the great
State over which he had the honor to preside.—
He proceeded to refer in glowing terms to the
numberless evidences of patriotic devotion to
country which her citizens had exhibited, and
concluded his address with a few words of heart . -
felt thanks to the soldiers of the Republid.who
stood around, or lived within our borders. Cheer
atter cheer greeted the oration, and for some mo
ments the cheers of the soldiers •deafened the
ear. - :
'Major-General Oliver 0. Howard was then-in
troduced, amid some contusion. Tht General
read a beautiful and appropriate oration. He
, referred in - Muffling terms to the- eroie dead re
posing within sound of his voice! He spoke of
the might of our great struggle, of its issues, its
termination, its influence. He referred to the
various celebrated martial movements of the war,
and paid a glowing tribute to both the Army. of
Atlanta gad of the Potomac. He pointed out
the hand of God in the strife, and showed that
to Him bOongs the glory of its triumphant ter
.:minatiorq_ He was frequently interrupted with
loud'applause.
Majorteneral George G. Meade was among
the most distinguished of the visitors. On the
route to the platform, General Meade, General
Crawfdrd, Governor Curtin, and Captain Craw
ford rode in an elegant barouche, drawn by four
gaily caparisoned horses. Gener4il Sykes rodtfin
a buggy alone.. In carriages following were
Lieutenant-Coh44 Bache, Major Emory, Adju
tant-General Russell, Quartermaster General
Reynolds, Inspector-General Todd, Surgeon-Gen
eral Phillips, Colonel Gregg, Colonel T. S. Mather
of General Cadwalader's Staff, and others. Ma
jor -General George H. Thomas, and Hon. Richard
Vane were present.
How changed are both the aspect of the town
and the appearance of the multitude. Twoyears
this very evening ambulances and teams were be
ing driven in every direction. Our cavalry were
gettingrOady, and in fact were already in pursuit
of Leers legions. The artillery bugle rang shril
ly upon the tongue of the caisson announced that
a" u hole army was in motion." Every house
bore a hovital flag, and the streets were crow
ded with limping and wounded soldiers. At the
outskirts of the town lay Howard's Corps—the
11th ; they hid during the fight retrieved the
good name they had lost at Chancellorsville, and
as they sat resting and panting by the roadside,
.their faces wore a smile of proi.d satisfaction at
the great and heroic deeds they had as ti.corpi
performed. Howard, the Havelock of our arms,
and loved and cherished by the private soldier of
both Sherman 's and Meade's late armies. It is
he who has so charmed our ears to-day by a por
trayal of the trials and hardships that have en
compassed the heroic soldier in the various posi
tions he has been called to assume during the
war. The recollections of the many brave deeds
perfiirmed here crowd in so rapidly that I must
crave your pardon and ask you to bear with the
while I recall a little incident in connection with
the orator of to-day and a young I'hsadelphiasol
dier.
Him aril's first command, you may have
heard him relate. was a Philadelphia brigade;
V, hen made a division commander the Majority of
the regiments composing hie command were Phil
adelph in organizations. He formed attachments
then which lasted during the whole of the war,
and upon his stair were 'several •` Quaker City
Boys:' At the eonclusion of the fight at GettYs
burg and at the first available moment, General
H. hurried into the toi)n and snught the conch of
a young Philadelphian, a member of his staff,
who had been wounded - during the conflict and,
an he had feared. dangerously. Upon reaching
the bedside of his yowl , . commtle. he saw that
all was over and that taur leave-tasking was for
eternity. After administering to the temporal
%tants of the d)ilig aid, lie gathered him up in his
arms and with his head resting upon his bosom,
w besought the Mercy Seat in supplicating tones
in behalf of who had won lug admiration, con
fidence and love. Lacing him upon the pillow,
he bent over hint with parental affection and hur
ried from the room to the saddle, and *few min
utes afterwards h was leading his enritt in pur
,nit of the retreating foe. lle wets not recog
nized by thok who witnessed the interview, and
the incident I,lould have lacked the name of one
of the actors, but that the young warrior who had
fallen was enabled, in - answer to inquiries, tee
state who it was that had see excited interest.
The streets have been thronged with the mul
titude of strangers in attendance upon the cere
utoairs, Joy and gladness are 'everywhere visi
ble, and hundreds Meet and exchange congratu
lations who have not nad since the eventful peri-
od that has made this town historical. Carria
ges with prancing horses have been whirling hith
er and thither,zeonveyina an eager army of sight
seers to the mkt remarkable spots in connection
with the battle.
The grass grows where armies bivouacked and
maile - ibare the, earth by the solid, rude tramp of
the= cavalry. Where iince camp fires burned
brightly and brave men sat in anxious suqpense
amtiting the dawn id a day fraught with fearful
carnage, the young corn now shows vigorous
nrowth and hides from riots every vestige ol that
terrible struggle. Further in the rear the birds
hate been gaily warbling iu the branches Pf trees
that Mice resounded with the groans of the woun
ded and d) log.
Sot far from the spot where I am inditing this,
the brave Reynolds sealed his gallantry and lovE_
I,f country in death. He sleeps in the bosom of
the Old Commonwealth that gave him birth, and
that he so lured as well as honored. His name
will be forever linked in connection with the he,
roic leaders who never once faltered in their ef
forts to crush an unholy rebellion.

As the head of the cavalcade entered the gate
of the Cemetery, there was considerable curiosity
manifested to know the names of the more noted
personages. -Gen. Geary was splendidly mount
ed ; he rode a large, sinewy black horse, who was
generally admired, and i f I am not mistokno, Mr.
I Italie was aware that he was in a somolivhAtcon
spicuous position. -Oh! which is Gegt.
please do tell me," said a young female my
hmildpr
411)t ,franktin Repositorp, 414ambersbutg,
"That is General Meade," pointing to the vet
eran who came riding gracefully a cantering,
beautiful bay, and as the General was recognized
by the multitude there went up a shout that made
one's ears tingle with pleasure to listen to. Go-,
vernor Curtin, who was at his side, received a
joyous salutation from the soldiers, which he ac
knowledged, and then the interest was to identify
Howard.
While the procession was passing within the
Cemetery, Companies A, C and E, 4th U. S. Ar
tillery, Companies B, L and M, 2d U. S. Artillery
and Company I, Ist U. S. Artillery, ten guns in
all, had taken possession of the right of the hill
facing the Cemetery, and honored the occasion
with a peculiar noise for which they aro celebra
ted in executing, and it has happened in the past
with terrible effect, though to the dismay and an
noyance of the enemy. A full brass band, be
longing to one of the veteran regiments stationed
at Washington struck up a patriotic refra in. which
was followed by a prayer from the Rev. Dr. Tyng.
The National Union Musical Association of
Baltimore sang a popular song. and, in the coarse
of the exercises, one called the " Gettysburg Mon
umental Ode," written by General Hayward, of
Baltimore :
This battle-field—our nation's glory,—
Mere sweetly sleep oar fallen braces.
Proclaims aloud the tragic story—
The story of their hallow'd graves !
Yes ! here on Gettysburg's sad plain,
This monument the tale will tell,
That thousands for their flag were slat n
Whilst fighting for the Union—fell !
Here red artillery's deadly fire
Mow'd squadrons down in dread array;
Here Meade compell'd Lee to retire,
_ And HOWIIIII held his ground that day.
Then lot those tattered banners wave—
Forever sacred be tkis ground !
Sing grans to those warriors brave,
And be their deo& with glory crown'tl!
Wives, mothers, sisters, orphans dear,
Shall gather round each ciap•cold bed,
And mourn their tor'd ones buried here—
Their husbands, fathers, brothers dead.
Now oil this consecrated ground,
Baptied with patriots sacred blood;
We dedicate each glorious mound
To the Chinn Barth-Flag and God
The corner-stone of the monument was laid
with appropriate ceremonies by the Masonic Or
der, after which Gen. Howard, the orator of the
day, delivered the oration. He was followed by
Col. C. G. Halpin, better known as Miles O'Ri
ley, who read an original poem. The poem was
very well received and the Colonel was congratu
lated afterwards by Gen. Meade, Gov. Curtin,
Dr. Tyng. and others. Gen. Geary proposed
three cheers for the poet soldier, and they were
given him with great good will. After the bene
diction, Goy. Curtin made a few remarks, cheers
were given for President Johnson, Gov. Curtin
and the Union. The vast concourse soon disper
sed and scattered in every direction, and the
trains leaving for Baltimore and Harrisburg, to
gether with the many private vehicles present,

FINANCE AND TRADE.
The Press of Friday last has the following sen
sible view of the Oil trade and Oil stocks :—The
oil-stock business is still in its transition state.
The wonderful success that many of the compa
nies have attained in the past, the remarkable swift
ness with which fortunes were made, by the lucky,
stimulated speculation to an extraordinary extent.
In the beginning everything was favorable, but
too much speculation has affected the whole oil
producing occupation, and . at the present time the
petroleum interest is flattened out. Oil stocks are
discouraged, and buyers are cautious. Undoubt
edly many of the moonshine corporations which
have been started will have to fail, : They will
exhaust the means and patience of their stock
holders. The latter will resolve to pay no more
money, considering what they have already con
tributed as inevitably lost. Either a few men
will get the management of them, or they will be
sold out, and those who. come in at the death will
bag the game. And yet, with all these diS'advan
tages, petroleum, per se, will not suffer. It has
become an object of worth to commerce, and the
demand for it will be steady If the number of
producers decrease, the value of the productions
increase. The companies organized for the pro
duction, of oil, which have avoided the arts of the
stock exchange, which have at all times paid at
tention to .the development of their lands, and
which have been managed with patient industry.
will reap the benefit. Their course was clear
from the first. It Was to attend to their own bus,
laces, unmindful of the turmoil around them.
They are now approaching the time when it will
be demonstrated that this policy will pay. As the
number of flimsy companies fade out—as the
chaff is riddledtfrorn .the grain—the old-fashioned,
honestly conducted coMpanies will rise in estima
tion. They will find their reward in good prices
for their oil and enhanced value for their stocks.
Happy they who have interest in such concerns.
for they will undoubtedly receive the benefit of
their patience and perseverance.
The general depression in all branches of busi
ness has seriously effected the stock market,-tind
Oil stocks have been extremely dull for some
weeks past. Indeed there are very few sales of
any stocks, and there Will be but few until the
slimmer months are passed. But while stocks
are dull in speculative channels, there never was
such earnest, gigantic and diversified development
in the oil region as this summer. Despite the se
verity of the winter, which stopped all operations
preparatory to boring, and the destructive March
flood, which carried off half the derricks on the
oil streams, the work of devetping has been pros
ecuted with boundless energy, and must soon tell
sensibly - on the value of all stocks which have any
substance in them : All the lending commercial
journals predict a degree of activity in oil stocks
this fall surpassing anything we have yet witness
ed. They will then be better understood—the
worthless and bogus companies will be exposed
and driven from the market, and the good com
panies will generally have tested the quality of
their lands. The sooner the bogus companies are
exploded the better, as the public will then be
able to invest with much more safety and the
stock of reliable companies, which is cow pros
trated IN ith the bogus organizations because accu-
rate discrimination is impossible, will advance in
value to a just standard. We are glad to see Ihe
officers of several swindling concerns in the co its
now in Philadelphia and New York, and the mbre
vigorously that work is pushed by defrauded stock
holders, the sooner will holders of good - stocks re
alize a just value for them. All the indications
point to the production of Nast quantities of Oil
this summer and fall, and many storks which now
hangisluguishly on the hands of owners will attain
vast value.
There aro over twenty wells in various stages
of progress on Me Imperial property, and four on
the Sterling—all of which must be tested within
sixty days, and sonic of them sooner. An SOO
barrel well was struck on Pit-hole quite / near to
the property of the- Sheridan and7rry Run
property last week, and that stock is msequent.
ly held at an advanced rate.
The National Bank of Chambersburg has de
clared its regular semi-anual dividend of five per
cent. and, as will he seen by the statement pre
sents a eleVer addition to its surplus profits. Its
total circulation, new and old, is $510,270; its
depositss26B,323 4r:t, and its surplus fund $39,833
41. Considering that it made a twenty per cent.
gold dividend when the change was made, it pre
sents a flattering balance sheet.
The First National Bunk of Greencastle pre
sents its first quarterly statement in our adverti
sing columns to-day, and does credit to the di
rection of the institution. Its loans and securi
ties amount to over $30,000: its deposits exceed
$:35,000 and its profits and earnings reach $3,-

When sickness, pain, and death,
Come o'er a godly child,
.How sweetly then departs the breath!
The dying pang hbw mild!
The spirit is not dead I
Though low the body lies,
But freed from sin, and sorrow, fled
• To dwell•Leyond the shies.
How unexpectedly has the messenger of death entered
oar midst, and borne away one beloved by all who knew
him ;—beloved, fur thisse sweet and, noble characteristics,
which rendered the childhood of the "departed one" so
attraction 'Us with mingled feelings of grief and pleas
tun, that I pay this tribute to the memory of Geo.:Edward
Heist--deep heart-felt grief, at the loss of one who had so
endeared himsett---andpleaeure, that his life was such as
to deserve such high encomium. Who better than a
teacher can recount a child's excellencies? Ina daily in
tercourse of two years, he displayed a character well wor
thy of imitation ; it woo his obedience, truthfulness, and
generosity, that so endeared him to us, and - which will
cause him to live long in the memory of a sorrowing band
of teachers, schoolmates, and friends:
Ile loved his Sabbath• ,
school ; N 5139 patient and resign
ed during his sickness; and almost his last words were,
" I do !owe the Saviour, Pam not afraid to die."
Why should Our tears in sorrow flow,
When God reballs his own ;
And bids them leave a world of woe,
For an immortal crown ?
' No ! let our sorrow cease to flow,
God has recalled his own;
And let our hearts, in this our woe.
Still say,—" Thy will be done
