IN AD' Onefer. -to Sic il uhs.1k - - -- VINNS BOR :k" Thurs lay, June 7, - - - 1900 TuE people of tho South can never be too careful to preservc tli princi ples, as far as possible, for which the Confederacy stood. These principles are constantly (recurring in our natio -al life. The North has always sought to overcome the natural ad':aniages .)f the South by centra;izing every thing at Washington. Ihe latest ef Ject to deprive th! States of righits re served to them is the reeotnmendition that a constitutional amendment, ree>mmended by the majority of the industrial commission, be udoptcd giving eongress power to pass uniform abor legislation. The Southern States Thould be on theitguard-ud sur render nothing that in any way de prives thellfof the right to control their-On affairs. IT is very bard to account for sorme men's judgment. There is G. Walt Whitman. Why should he think it possible for him to be elected Gov ernor this %ear? By what process of reasoning does he arrive at the con clusion that he stands any chance whatever of securing the nomination in the primary? Is hejut running be ctuse he enaj )y5 it? Rational people will have a hard time of it if tbey tin dertake to find wby G. Walt ii a candi date. The most rational analysis of G. Walt, probably, is that he is just one of the ordinary cranks that now and then appear, or that office-seekirg is a chronic disease with him. THE fAll of Pretoria :markq the end of the struggle of the Boers for theiv indepenCence. A guerilla warfare may be carried on for a while, but further resistance to the o erwhelmig British will amount to nuohing.

Anll of Newberry has just completed the publication of Kershaw's brigade, written by Capt D. A. Dickert. It con tains about six hundred printed pages, 1 as an ap pendir a complete roll ' egimrents and companies, of the Hice-s and men composing the bnigade The book also contains a number of the officers. Justice Y. J. Pope who has en couraged Capt. Dickert very much in this work and who has been given the opportunity of reading about five hundred pages of it, in talking of the work yesterday said: I am glad to say that some days since Mr. Aull, .the publisher of this history of Ker shaw's brigade, placed in my hand3 as much as 500 pages ot this work. I am obliged to say that to me it was brimful of interest. To such an ex tent did the fascination of this history grow upon me that it was with diffi culty I could lay the work down until I had finished every page of it and re-read much of it. To my mind Capt. Dickert has suc ceeded in what many others have fai!ed. Ihis story of secession and the beginning of the war is admirably told without even becoming heavy. He is true to the South and her people and he explodes the fallacies that this war was the rich man's war and the poor man's fight by showing that rich and poor rushed to arms and never surrendered until the cause was lost, and, also, that from the mountains to the sea there was but one impulse and that was to fight for our liberty, but .this only comprises a small part of the worth of this history. While I have not now the time, if I had the power to do so, to analyze this work I will say we needed a his tory of Kershaw's brigade because it was the first brigade of the first corps of the Army of Northern Virginia and because in detailing this history there wculd appear an account of the or ganization, labor and battle of the regiments composing this brigade. It would astonish you to be told that the soldiers composing these regiments missed only the second battle of Manassas, Mine Run and Appomnatox of all the battles in Virginia, and while they missed (these battles, they took part in that bloodiest hattle of the war-Chickamauga in North Georgia and also Bentonville and Averysboro, in North Carolina, be sides having borne the brunt of Long street's campaign in east Tennessee. Capt. Dickert has begun with the very beginning of each regiment in this brigade, showing how it was of icered and from what section of the State the companies come, besides giving the name of every officer and soldier who ever served in the brigade. This latter work is itself invaluable, beiug in pernanent book shape. Capt. Dickert has reproduced here a story of the battles fought. He has not for gotten to mention many acts of special gallantry and has -ot confined him self to officers-privates come in for their share of honor for thei: bravery and deed3. I doubt if a more touch ing story of bravery in battle can be furnished than he has done in that of Private Thomas W. Sligh at Gettys burg; or of Private David Copeland at Malvern Hlll; or of Private Julius Zobel while in a Yankee prison. His book is interspersed with humorous stories, which are all Alled with faun, but which leave no sting behind. Be sides I was delighted to see with what zebt he told of the matchless valor of McGowan's brigaie at the Blood7 Angle at Spottsylvania, Va., 12 May, 18G4, and- of the imperishable fame won by Gen. Stephen Elliott's bri gade (which afterwards became Judge W. 11. Wallace's) at the Crater at Petersburg, Va., in 1864. Capt. Dickert, in his delightful rendering of the battle of Gettyshbrg, snows that he glory cf tL caarge of Pickett's division at Gettysburg on the 3rd July, 1863, is also the proud heritage of the brave troops from North Caro lina. J. Q. Hood, Justice of the Peace, Crosby, Miss., makes the following statement- "I can certify that One Minute Congh Cure will do al that it claimed for it. My wife couM not get her breath and the first dose of it re lieved her. It has also benefited mv whole family." It acts immediitely and cures coughs, colds, croup, grippe, bronchiti,, as!P-na and all throat and lung trcun:'s. McMaster Co.
