Egoist vs. Altiuist The best thing we have yet Fcen on :he m' ject of ro'iiiers' niemoria's was supplie.1 t y tiie Mount Foienl Ci nfodcr- ale. last week, ami expiesses enr own conviction in such cb ur lanmiage that v.e (j'joie it in full : The idea of having some S' rt of mem- orial to our toliiier boys, particularly those who have lo^t their lives in the great iightTor freedom and justice, is oencriilly appioved, liut theio is a wide diversity of < pinion as to the form which the meuioiial shoulel take. Those in favor of a memorial may I e clearly divided into two classes : Ibote who would erect a monument, pure and simple, e.xcluhively devoled to the pur- pose of (oiiiuiemoratin!: the srif-saciilice of our Soldiers /and those who would ereci snmu sort of public hall, or hospii^al, or endow srine institution which would combine utility wi:h toir.nieiuoraliou. The lirst class are idealists and altruists; the second sort are itilitarians and mere or less egoists. The tirst class want to give some: bins; to show their siiatiluJe : the second to take advantago of the feel- ino of public grititude to uet something for themselves or llio uinimunity in whch they live. We conlfss that we nuioh prefer ihe i 'eal mt'inoiia', that wli'ch will be as lit le tainted with seUisliiicsM is possiole, that nliich will le a lull and fi^>e lUid glad atfuring of grateful hiarteiii rrcogoi- lion of self sacnlicinL' pstriolirni and devoio'i.
