Never in the history of the
world did the death of any man
oause more profound sorrow than
that which followed upon the an>
nouncement that ia the gray
dawp ot December 6, 1889, Jef-
ferson Davis had passed from
earth. His people were stricken
with inexpressible grief and in
anguish millions bent above his
bier.
The nation of which he had
been the most efficient and dis-
tinguished secretary of war that
ever held that high trust did not
in tpken of respect to his memoiy
lower that llug under the folds of
which he had doDe valiant battle,
and in defense of which he had
shed his heroic blood; but his
people paid hicn kingly honors.

June 3, iSo8—Jefferson
Davis—December 6,1889.
[The Houston Chronicls. iu its
issae of the Sni, hiw the follow*
ing eulogv on Jeffurson Davis,
that day being the anniversary of
his birth.]
Born June 3, 1808, >n Christian
county, Kentucky. Died De-
cember 6, 1889, in New Orleans,
La., comprises the Alpha and
Omega of a £reat life; but in the
more than four score years which
lay between Jefferson Davis, by
his patriotism, his courage, his
devotion to duty, his unhesita*
ting obedience to his oonvictions,
his fortitude under adverse for-
tune, his fidelity to his people
and his principles and his exalted
and stainless Christian character,
left hie indelible impression upon
the pages of history and the
hearts of his countrymen.
tlis graduation from West
Point in 1828, his seven years'
service as a lieutenant in the
army of tho United States upon
the frontier, his brilliant achieve-
ments as colonel of the i^irst
Mississippi Volunteer Regiment
in the Mexican war, during which
he was severely wounded at the
| buttle of Buena Vista; his service
! m the senate of the United States
land as sec?-etary of war in the
cabinet of President Franklin
j Pierce, are all matters of familiar
j history.
as was his service in every st:i
tion, the surest foundation of his!
fams will be his connection with j
! th'j Confederate SUte-s and their j
1 great struggle for independence
and a place among the nation? of
| the earth.
j When, in obedience to tho
primal ereeci of his political faith
—that his first duty was to Miss-
issippi and that he mu=t give
heed first to the voice ol' her peo-
ple—lie withdrew from the senate
of the United States and bade
his feilow members adieu and
stated his position and the prin-
ciples upon which he based iiis
act inn in a farewell address which
will stand through ail time as
unapproachable in elegance of
diction and power of staiempnt—
a classic of eloquence never since
equaled by any deliverance made
in that august parliament.
When tne new republic was
formed tne minds of his country-
iron, as by common and spon-
taneous impulse, turned to him
as the man most fit for its hrst
civic head, and he was without
dissent elected to that position.
How ably, faithfully and de-
votedly he discharged the duties
of that onerous trust history
gloriously uttests, but. had he
fai'ed or fallen short of the de-
mands of that great ollise his fi-
delity to his convictions and his
heroic endurance of political per-
j ution for the neaily twentv-
itivp years between the close of
til.- win and the day of his death
| wouid have been sufficient to
have sealed aud set hi in. apart
ur.io that immortality of fame
, which is the treasured inheritance
j ot his people.
| liveiy cruelty and'indignity
that sectional hate or partisan
passion could suggest or conceive
was visited upou bim, yet he
craved pardon of uo man, apolo-
gized unto no man. Conscious
of the justice qf the cause of
which he had been the moat il-
lustrious exponent, he was unto
bis people and his principles
faithful even unto death.
