Grant Present— ‘The Dix Flag. Col. Robert G. Ingersoll delivered the follow- ing oration at the New York Academy of Music Tuesday evening (Decoration day) to an audi- ence of ten thousand people: This day is sacred to our heroes dead. Upon their tombs we have lovingly laid the wealth of spring. This is a day for memory and tears. A mighty nation bends above its honored graves and pays to noble dust the tribute of its love. Gratitudeis the fairest flower that sheds its per- fume in the heart. To-day we tell the history of our country’s life; recount the lofty deeds of vanished years; the toiland suffering; the de- feats and victories of heroic men—ot men who made our nation great and free. We see the first. ships whose prows were gilded by the western sun. We feel the thrill of discovery when the New World was found. We see the oppressed, the serf, the peasant, and the slave— men whose flesh had known the chill of chains— the adventurous, the proud, the brave, sailing an unknown sea, seeking homes in unknown lands. We gee the settiements, the little clear- ings, the block-house and the fort, the rude and lonely huts, brave men; trae women, builders of homes, fellers of forests, founders of states! Sep- arated from the Old World, away from the heartless distinctions of caste, away from scep- ters and titles and crowns, they governed them- selves. They defended their homes, they earned their bread. Each citizen had a voice, and the little villages became almost republics. Slowly the savage was driven, foot by foot, back in the dim forest. The days and nights were filled with fear, and the slow years with massacre and war, and the cabins’ earthen floors were wet with blood of mothers and their babes. But the savages of the new world were kinder than the kings and nobles of the old; and so the human tide kept coming, and the places of the dead were filled. Amid common dangersand common hopes the prejud ices and feuds of Europe faded slowly from their hearts. From every land, of every speech, driven by want and lured by hope, exiles and emigrants sought the mysterious continent of the west. Year after year the colonists fought and toiled and suffered and increased. They began to talk about liberty—to reason of the rights of man. ‘They asked no help from distant kings. and they began to doubt the use of paying tribute to the useless. They lost respect tor dukes and lords, and held in high esteemyall honest men. There was the dawn ot a new day. They began to dream of independence. They found that they could make andexecutethe laws. Th ad tried the experiment of self-government. ‘They had succeeded. The Old World wished to dominate the New. In the care and keeping of the colo- nists was the destiny of this continent—of half the world. On this day the story of the great struggle between colonists and kings should be told. We should tell our children of the con- test—first for justice, then for freedom. We should tell them the history of the Declaration.| of Independence, the chart and compass of all human rights—*"All men are equal and have the right to life, to iiberty,” and joy. This declara- tion uncrowned kings and wrested from the hands of titled tyranny the scepter of usurped and arbitrary power. It superseded royal sr: and repealed the cruel statutes of a thousand years. It gave the peasant acareer. It knight ed all the sons of toil. It opened all the paths to fame and put the star of hope above the cradle of the poor man’s babe. England w then the mightiest of nations, mistress of eve ‘y and yet our fathers, poor and few, defied her powe To-day we remember the defeats. the victories, the disasters, the weary marches, the poverty, the hunger, the sufferings, the agonies, and above all, the glories of therevolution. We re- member all—from Lexington to Valley Forge, and from that midnight of despair to York— town’s cloudless day. We remember the sol- diers and thinkers—the heroes of the sword and pen. They had the brain and heart, the wisdom and the courage, to utter and detend these words: “Governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed.” ‘In defense of this sublime and seli-evident trath the war was waged and won. To-day we remember all the heroes, ali the generous and chivalric men who came from other lands to make ours free. Of the many thousands who shared the gloom and Slory of the seven sacred years not one re- mains. The last has mingled with the earth, and nearly all are sleeping now in unmarked graves, and some beneath the leaning, crumbling stones from which their nameshave been effaced by Time's irreverent and relentless hands. But the nation they founded remains. The United States are still free and independent. The “government derives its just powers from the consent of the governed,” and fifty million of free people remember with gratitude the heroes of the revolution, Let us be truthful; let us be kind. When peace came, when the in- dependence of a new nation was acknowledged, the great truth for which our fathers fought was half denied, and the Constitution was incon- sistent with the Declaration. The war was waged for liberty, and yet the victors forged new letters for their fellow-men. The chains our fathers broke were put by them upon the limbs of others. Freedom-for-all was the cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night through seven years of want and war. In peace the cloud was forgotten, and the pillar blazed un- seen. Let us be trutntul; all of our fathers were not true to themselves. In war they had been generous, noble and self-sacrificing; with peace came selfishness and greed. They were ndt great enough to appreciate the grandeur of the principles for which they fought. They ceased to regard the t_ truths as having universal application. ‘‘Liberty for all” included only themselves. aie qualified the Declaration. They interpolated the word ‘‘white;” they oblit- erated the word “all.” Let us be kind. We will remember the age in which they lived. We will compare them with the citizens of other nations. They made merchandise of men. They legal- izeda crime. They sowed the seeds of war; but they founded this nation. Let us gratefully remember; Let us gratefully forget. To-day we remember the heroes of the second war with England, in which our fathers fought for the freedom of the seas, for the rights of the American sailor. _We remember with pride the Splenaia victories of Erie and Champlain, and the wondxgus achievements upon the sea— achievements that covered our navy with aglory that neither the victories nor defeats of the fu- ture can dim. We remember the heroic services and sufferings of those who fought the merci- less savage of the frontier. We see the mid- night massacre and hear the war cries of the allies of England. We see the flames climb round the happy homes, and in the charred and blackened ruins we see the mutilated bodies ot wivesand children. Peace came at last, crowned with the victory of New Orleans—a victory that “did redeem all sorrows” and all defeats. The revolution gave our fathers a free land—the war of 1812 a free sea. To-day we remember the gallant men who bore our flag in triumph from the Rio Grande to the heights of Chapul- tepec. Eeoving out of question the justice of our cause—the necessity for war—we are yet com- pelled to applaud the marvelous courage of our troops. A handful of men—brave, impetuous, determined, irresistible—conquered a nation. Onur history has no record of more daring deeds. Again peace came. and the nation hoped and thought that strife was at an ead. We had grown too powerful tobe attacked. Our re- sources were boundless, and the future seemed secure. The hardy pioneers moved to the great west. Beneath their ringing strokes the forests and on the prairies waved the bil- lowed seas of wheat and corn. The plains were crossed, the mountains were conquered and the foot of victorious adventure pressed the shore of the Pacific. In the great north all the streams went singing to the sea, turning wheels and spindles and casting shuttles back and fort! Inventions were like from a thousand brains. m 'sholy and leaped the smoke and flame, and from the countless fc rang the chant of rhythmic stroke. But inthe south the n tolled un- paid, and mothers wept while were sold, and * bad sane rye Hyper ad eee wives speee ly lool e good-bye. Fugi- ives, lighted by the northern star, Soagkt lib- erty on soil, and were by northern men thrust back to whip and chain. Thegreat states- men, the ‘miccesaful | politicians, announced that law had compromised with crime; that justice had been bribed, and that time had barred ap- peal. A race was left without a right, without ahope. The future had no dawn, no star— nothing but ignorance and fear; nothing but work and want. This was the conclusion of the statesmen, the ‘phil of the politicians, of constitutional Expounters This’ was dectied by courts and ratit nation. We had been successtul in three wars. We. had wrested thirteen colonies from Great Britain. We had ee our place the high seas. We added more than two million of square miles to the national domain, We had increased in from three to ‘The great dome of the ple was clad in the light of prosperity, but, the corner stones were crumbling. Four million mistaken for pi ip for patriotism, success for justice. But Pity poinied to the scarred and bleeding backs of siaves; ae heard the sobs of reft of babes, and Justice held aloft the scales in which one wp of blood shed by a master’s lash out- weighed a nation’s gold. There were a few men, a few women, who had the courage to attack this monstrous crime. They found it entrenched in constitutions, statutes and terarne betreres and bastioned Le ished ent and by every party. Politicians a its servants, statesmen its attorneys, Judges its menials, Presidents its puppets, and upon its cruel altar had been sacrificed our country’s honor. It was the crime of the nation—of the whole country—north and south responsible alike. ‘o-day we reverently thank the abolitionists: Earth has produced no grander men, no nobler womea. They were the real fo ee the true patriots. When the will defies fear, when the heart applauds the brain,-~when duty throws the gauntlet down to fate, when honor scorns to compromise with death—this is heroism. The abolitionists were heroes. He loves his country best who strives to makeit best. The bravest men are those who have the greatest fear of do- ing wrong. Mere politicians wish the country to do something for them; true patriots desire to do something for their country. Courage without conscience is a wild beast; patriotism without principle is the prejudice ot birth—the animal attachment to place. ‘These men, these women, had courage and conscience, patriot- ism and principle, heart and brain. The south relied upon the bond—upon a _bar- barous clause that stained, disfigured and de- filed the federal pact, and made the monstrous claim that slavery was the nation’s ward. The spot of shame grew red in northern cheeks, and northern men declared that slavery had poisoned, cursed and blighted soul and soil enough, an that the territories must be free. The radicals of the south cried: “No Union without slavery!” The radicals of the north replied: ‘No Union without liberty!” The northern radicals were Tight. Upon the great issue of free homes for free men _a President was elected by the free states. The south appealed to the sword, and raised the standard of revolt. For the first time in history the oppressors rebelled. But let us to-day be great enough to forget individuals; great enough to know that slavery was treason, that slavery was rebellion, that Slavery tired upon our flag and sought to wreck and strand the mighty ship that bears the hope and fortune of this world. The first shot liber- the north. Constitutions, statutes and de- cisions, compromises, platforms and resolutions, made, passed and ratified in the interest of slavery, became mere legal lies,mean and mean- ingless, base and_ baseless, paper could no longer stop or stay the onward march of man. The north was free. Millions instantly resolyed that the nation should not die, that freedom should not perish, and that slavery should not live. Millions of our broth- ers, our sons, our fathers, our husbands an- swered to the nation’s call. The great armies desolated the earth; the greatest soldiers have been ambition’s dupes. They waged war for the sake of peace and pillage, pomp and power, for the ignorant applause of vulgar mil- lions, for the flattery of parasites, and the adu- lation of syeephants and slaves. Let us proudly remember that in our time the greatest, the grandest, the noblest army of the world fought, not to enslave, but to free; not to destroy, but to save; not simply for themselves, but for ‘others; not ‘for conquest, but for con- science; not only for us, but for every land and every race. With courage, with enthusiasm, with devotion never excelled, with an exalt tion and purity of purpose never equalled, this grand army fought the battles of the republic. For the preservation of this nation, for the de- struction of slavery, these soldiers, these sailors on land and sea, disheartened by no defeat, dis- couraged by no obstacle, appalled by no danger, neither paused nor swerved until a stainless flag, without a rival, floated oyer all our wide domain, and until every human being beneath its folds was absolutely free. The great victory for human rights, the greatest of all the years, had been won; won by the Union men of the north, by the Union men of the south, and by those who had been slaves. Liberty was na- tional; slavery was dead. The flsg for which the heroes fought, for which they died, is the symbol of all we are, of all we hope to be. It is the emblem of equal rights. 1t means free hau free lips, self- government, and the sovereignty of the indi- vidual. It means that this continent has been dedicated to freedom. It means universal edu- cation, light for every mind, knowledge for ep) child. Tt means that the school-house is the fortress of liberty. It means that “govern- ments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed;” that each man is accountable toand tor the government; that responsibility goes hand in hand with liberty. It means that it ® the duty of every citizen to bear his share of the public burden, to take part in the affairs of his town, his county, his state, and his coumtry. It means that the ballot-box ts the ark of the covenant, that the source of authority must not be poisoned. It means the perpetual right of peaceful revolution. It means that every citizen ef the republi native or naturalized—must*be protected; at home in every state; abroad in every land, on every sea. It means that all distinctions based on birth or blood have perished from our laws— that our government shall stand between labor and capital, between the weak and strong, between the individual and the corporation, between want and wealth; and give and guar- antee simple justice to each and all. It means that there shall be a legal remedy for every wrong. It means national hospitality—that we must welcome to our shores the exiles of the world, and that we may not drive them back. Some’ may be deformed by labor, dwarfed by hunger, broken in spirit, victims of tyranny and caste—in whose sad faces may be the touch- ing record of a weary life, and yet their children, born of liberty and love. will be symmetrical and fair, intelligent and free. That flag is the emblem of a supreme will, of a nation’s power. Beneath its folds the weakest must be protected and the strongest must obey. It shields and canopies alike the loftiest man- sion and the rudest hut. That flag was given to the air in the revolution’s darkest days. It represents the sufferings of the past, the glories yet to be; and, like the bow ofheaven, it is the child of storm and sun. This day is sacred to the great heroic host who kept this flag above our heads—sacred to the living and the dead, sacrgd to the scarred and maimed, sacred to the wives who eye their husbands, to the mothers who gave their sons. Here in this peaceful land of ours, here where thesun shines, where flowers grow, where children play, millions of armed men battled for the right and bre ona thousand fields the tron storms of war. These brave, these incomparable men, founded the first republic. They fulfilled the prophe- cies, they brought to thedreams, they rea- lized the hopes that all the great and and wise and just have made and had since man was man. But what of those who fell? There is no language to express the debt we owe, the love we to all the dead who died for us. Words are but barren sounds. We can but stand be- side thelr graves, and in the hush and siJence feel what speech has never told. They it; they died; and for the first time since man has kept a reeord of events, the heavens bent above end doomed & land without a serf, a servant, or asiave. was the production of the isk ay flag upon nehich was inscribed General Dix’s famous order, “If any man attempt to haul down the ‘American flag shoot him on thespot,” This relic brought every man in the house to his feet, and the en- thusiasm was unbounded. sowie Se SE ‘The Telephone as aiTrifler.

A resolution was adopted to invite the diocese of Easton to send representatives to co-operate in the Preparations for the celebration. Rev.

Recently Mr. Griffith, the president of the Mary- land Prisoners’ Ald assoctation, paid a visit to Guiteau, and had quite a long interview with him, lasting nearly an hour. They conversed alto- gether on spiritual subjects, and the prisoner showed that he was well read in the scriptures. Mr, Griffith, towards the close of the interview, engaged in’ prayer with the prisoner, and the lat- ter appeared much affected—so much so that he followed in a very feeling prayer, in which he asked God to give him grace to sustain him in his trials, and that in whatever may occur He would guide and direct him, and finally save him and Mis friend who had come here to give him Christian sympathy. Yesterday the prisoner received a letter trom his brother, John Wilson Guiteau, which had the ef- fect of cheering him some, and in the latter part Of the day it was evident that he was hopetul. He talked with his guards cheerfully, and to one, without a sign of jeeling, save in a’subdued tone, he asked: hat is death? I have to die—that is this body of mine must die some time—and !t mat- ters not with me when my times comes. Iftfam to end my life on that scaffold I am ready to do it, and when I go there, then will be my time. ‘The prisoner’s mall matter seems to have fallen off recently, and some days he recelves but two or three cards,or rather but two or three cards are re- ceived for him, as but few are given him.

Plum, who were arrested by Licutenant Austin and a squad of po- Hcemen about two weeks ago, on complaint of License Agent Raff, on the charge of engaging in the busines of selling Louisiana lottery tickets,and whose cases were continued from time to time, were called for trial in the Police Court this after- noon. Mr. Jeff Chandler appeared for the defend- ants and Mr. Chas. Moore for the government. The first witness was a young man named Frank Mc- Nichol, who testified to buying a ticket for this lot- tery on the 16th of last month, from the defend- ants. License Agent Raff testified that he saw an advertisement of the lottery company In a news- paper, and from the information thus obtained he Went to No. 607 7th street, and found the name of M. A. Dauphin, of the Louisiana Lottery Com- any, on the door. Witness applied to Mr. Rodgers for a ticket, and was informed by that gentleman that they could not sell tickets over the counter, but if witness would fill out an order and pay for a ticket he would receive one thi the mails.

After the reportof the star route trial in the first edition of Tae Stam closed, the proceedings continued as follows: There was some ite as to the way of pro- ceeding. ‘The court directed that one juror ata me be called and examined. ‘MR. DICKSON ACCEPTED. ‘Wm. Dickson was called and the court asked whether the government accepted him. Mr. Mer- Tick raised the question as to whether he could in- terrogate the Jurors further after the court had examined them on their voir dire, The court de- cided in substance that questions relating to the qualifications of a juror could be asked. Mr. Merrick said the government would accept Mr. Dickson, and the defendants also accepted him without examination. WILLIAM T. WOOD Was called, and the usyal questions asked as to his qualifications. He said he had conversed about the case casualfy; he had not conversed with his father about the case; he believed his father criti- clsed Judge Wylie’s deciston one evening at the table; did not think he had any talk with any one about the merits of the case; he had talked with Mr. Dickson, protesting against belng kept at a hotel if selected as a juryman. A‘ter a long discussion as to whether the govern- ment could cause a juror to stand aside, the court decided that it could not. Mr. Merrick then CHALLENGED WOOD PEREMPTORILY. Mr. Totten objected that the government had no peremptory challenge, and, being overruled, noted an exception. Joseph Hesse was called to the box to fill the vacancy caused by the challenge and passed a satisfactory examination on his voir dire. John B. Dawson was called for examination. “Gentlemen, there 1s a good juror for you,” satd Judge Wylie, as Mr. Dawson, who weighs over 300 pounds, stood u, A long discussion as to technicalities concerning {he order of examination. sprang up. The court having remarked that. Mr. Dawson was not called to fill a vacancy, but Mr. Hesse was, Mr. Ingersoll remarked, “I don’t see how vacancy could exist in his neighborhood.” ‘The government having accepted Mr. Dawson, he was examined by Mr. Ingersoll. He sald he had conversed frequently about the star route cases, but had not expressed an opinion as to the merits of the case; he had never been a star route contractor or security for such contractor. When the examination was concluded Mr. Ingersoll an- nounced,**We challenge Mr. Dawsen and charge Itto Stephen W.Dorsey—a pretty heavy change, Ithink.” Chas. H. Bliss Was taken on the panel to take Mr. Dawson's place. 3 CHALLENGED FOR CAUSE. John W. Hayes was examined by Mr. Merrick. He sald he had not talked about the case, except ast night he sald something to Mr, Chas, Nye in a joke. “He wanted to know,” sid Mr. Hayes,how much I was going to get from the star route cases. I told him about $5,000. ‘That was all.” “Have you said anything else about the case’ asked Mr. Merrick. fi 2° asked Mr. Merrick. Kecause I have noticed things going on in the court.” Mr. Merrick said he would challenge Mr. Hayes for cause, “A man,” said Mr. Merrick,“who would joke about a serious matter ‘in that way I do not think is qualified to serve.” MIGHTY SOLEMN, “That’s an intimation then,” said Mr. McSwee- ney,“that this whole trial is to be mighty solemn.” The court said he did not think Mr. Hayes was disqualified, whereupon Mr. Merrick challenged him peremptorily. —— The District in Congress. IMPORTANT ACTION OF THE HOUSE COMMITTEE TO. par. At the meeting of the House committee on the District of Columbia to-day the following was unanimously adopted: “Resolved, That the Speaker of the House be most respectfully requested to recognize M. S. Urner, one of the members of this committee, on Moniay next, June 5th, to move a suspension of the rules of the House in order to offer for adop- tion the following: “Resolved, That the 21 and 4th Mondays of each calendar month hereafter during ‘the existence of the 47th Congress, after the call of the states, be t apart for the consideration of such business as may be presented by the committee on the Dis- trict of Columbia, and this order shail not be set aside except by a vote of two-thirds of the mem- bers present and voting upon sald resolution.” ‘The Senate bill to lacrease the water supply was considered at length and the committce agreed to report it precisely as 1t came from the Senate, While the committee Is in favor of a $50,000 appro- ration for a fishway at the Great Falls of the otomac, It was deemed best to get It through as an independent proposition rather than Jeopandize the Senate bill with amendments. It the House should pte the resolution hereinbefore printed, the bill will be called up on the second Monday in June. The bills to allow the Washington and At- lantic and the Washingion and Point Lookout railroads to enter the mits of the District were discussed, but no action was had.

Mr. Ingalls to-day introduced in the Senate a bill directing the Commisstoners to receive for all gen- eral taxes the certificates commonly known as ten per cent certificates, and instead of cancelling them to deposit them with the U. 8.

The bill reported yesterday from the Senate com- mittee on military affairs for the relief of Fitz John Porter authorizes his appointment to the position of colonel in the army, with the same grade and rank held by him at the time of dis- missal from the army. He is to receive no pay, however, for the period during which he was out of the service. The report of the majority of the committee which accompanies the billis mainly confined to a recital of the proceedings in the case and the action taken by the President and Con- gress to undo the wrong inflicted by the original findl and sentence of the military court. In the minority report Gen. an goes over the ground which he has frequently traversed before, and maintains thateven from the testimony taken by the board of review, Gen. Porter was guilty of willful disobedience of orders; that the force which he supposed to be fn his front during the day of fatal inaction and delay was a small de- tachment of cavalry, and that the cloud of dust which Gen. Porter saw was raised by a mule drawing brush up and down the road, as the con- federate General Stuart explains in his rey ‘The minority protest against the passage of the Dill, for the reason “it would stand hereafter as an incentive to military disobedience in the crises of armies, and as an assurance of forgiveness and emolument for the most dangerous crime a soldier can commit.” InvIcTMENTS.—The grand jury, this afternoon, reported the following indictimenta and. was then urned to the 1: inst.: John H.
