d bring to the South, and rejoicing in the certain future prosperity of that section, anticipated the verdict which the New South, amazed by her marvellous growth and development under freedom, has already pronounced. The New South rejoices in the Union and its wide ___domain, and, most of all, it is proud that the blot of slavery has been removed from its escutcheon. It says, in all heartiness and sincerity, God be praised for this crowning glory of a wonderful century (James Phelan of Tennessee, in a speech prior to his election as member of Congress from the Memphis district, November, 1886). Bitter to my taste as were the results of the civil war, day after day has reconciled me to them, and convinced me of the wisdom of cheerful submission to the will of Him who brought them about. The union of these States has been preserved and declared indissoluble. A great and disturbing constitutional question has been finally and forever settled, and slavery has been forever abolish

That at Birmingham was under the auspices of the National Freedmen's Aid Union and the Birmingham and Midland Freedmen's Aid Association, and was preceded by a breakfast to Mr. Garrison, at which an ex-Confederate General, R. V. Richardson of Tennessee, spoke and made voluntary confession that the freedmen were confiding, warm-hearted, faithful, sympathetic, possessed of great physical energy and power, and only required to be educated to make excellent citizens. I am writing this with a Southern Confederate General (Richardson of Tennessee) by my side, and a Major (Saunders) of the same stripe—both very courteous, friendly, complimentary! What strange things turn up in the course of time! (Ms. Oct. 19, 1867, W. L. G. to H. E. G.) The following letter was read by Arthur Albright, Mr. Garrison's host in Birmingham, through whose untiring efforts, largely, the magnificent sum of £100,000 had already been raised and sent to America in aid of the freedmen: W.
