GEORGE B. M'CASLAN. * Tribute From ik FrlMicl-Xole* of. M. Kennedy. I see by tliis week's issue of your paper short notice of the death of ray Iried and con rade George B. McCaslun. You state "he die at. the home of his brother-in-law. Mr. A. 1 Kennedy, who was a gallant soldier in tl l'Jth Regiment and fought the battles of h country with valor and heroism." The compliment paid Mr. Kennedy was <1 served. My deceased friend, too, was a ga lant soldier. The record shows that he wi among the first to answer to the call of h country. He enlisted at the age of twent; one Id Bradley's Company C. 7th Regimen and was mustered into service by Major E' ans on May 14th, 18B1, and was wounded o Maryland Heights, 13th September, lSttJ. Tt capture of these Heights made Harper's Fe ry an easy prey to General Jackson with i eleven thousand prisoners and seventy-tw cannon two days later. Speaking of this capture recalls two incidents which made a lasting impression upon me, which may be mentioned here. One was on that day Gen. Butler lost his deep-seated brass-bound saddle and the circumstance connected therewith. The other was a conversation had with J. M. Kennedy, the day the surrender. Jim was also a member of Bradley's company, and was a younger brother of A. B. Kennedy, and is recorded as being mustered into service by Maj. Evans on the 19th of April, 1863, at Acovena court, though at the age of seventeen. Jim was the baby boy of the company. The surrender of Harper's Ferry took place early Sabbath morning, 15th of September 1862, after which, for a few hours the Confederate soldiers, tired and hungry, seemed to roam at will. Jim Kennedy asked me to meet him and he would show me a Yankee he had wounded in the fight, I went with him to the hospital, where he stood over a wounded Federal soldier and said: "There lies a man I shot." The wounded man looked up at him and replied: "Yes, you shot me, but it was after surrendered." With an earnestness and sternness far beyond his age, Jim said, "I didn't go into the war to take prisoners." Although it occurred nearly thirty-three years ago, this incident is as indelibly impressed on my memory as the battle and capture of Harper's Ferry itself. Two days later, twelve miles up the river, the great battle of Sharpsburg was fought. and J. M. Kennedy was killed. I believe the cause for which he fought and died was as dear to him as life itself, and that he laid himself a willing sacrifice upon the altar of his country. A. D. The Jubilee. The Business Men's Jubilee and Trade Carnival is now well under way. Rehearsals are being had and everything promises for a complete success. The style of entertainment is novel and unique. It has been tried in many places and without exception has always proven eminently satisfactory not only as a good medium of advertisement but as furnishing thoroughly enjoyable performance. The ladies in charge are hard at work, and energy and enthusiasm, and the host of fall costumes, including the prizes of their respective establishments, vying with each other in the attractiveness of their costumes and in their picturesque grouping and display. The play is copyrighted and we know little of the detail, it being kept in secret; but the public is assured that the whole affair will be up to the standard of reputation which this unique entertainment has attained elsewhere. The time is fixed for Thursday night, the 25th, and it is hoped that the tireless work of the brigade of young ladies will bring out the larger and enthusiastic audience which they deserve. The advertisers are again reminded that they are expected to furnish their own banners, and as before stated, it is hoped they will be attractive and artistic in design. This being a church entertainment, the foreman of the grand jury and the county officials have kindly consented that the Court House be used. Tickets now on sale at the drug stores and at Aug. W. Smith's. Admission, 25 cents. Children 25 cents. No reserve seats. Let all come out and have an evening of fun and frolic. Old Papers. We are indebted to the kindness of Mr. Harry Cannon for copies of some old papers, which we hope to review at some future time. Mr. Kenny Milford showed us a copy of the Charleston Courier of 1857, in which mention is made of the fact that Col. J. Foster Marshall had succeeded a suitable monument over the hero of Mexico. F.

We hear there will be several weddings around soon. Miss Mart Morrow spent several days in Greenwood last week.

What it Comes to Convert a Pig Out Chinaman, Who Isn't Worth Much After he is Converted. Charleston Evening Sun. Our morning contemporary has the following: "For each convert made in the foreign field during the past year, it has cost the America Board (Congregational), $5,000; the Baptist Union, $5,000; the Methodist Episcopal Church, $5,000, and the Presbyterian Board, $5,000." Is it worth it, considering the decadence and widespread ignorance and misery in home? Wouldn't this money have been wisely expended right here in this "glorious United States of America." THE GONSTON ECHO. All Abbeville Yumc I.mly Recondition We are in receipt of a copy of the Gonsolte, which is published by the young ladies of the Gonsolte institute, Washington. Miss May Robertson of this city is the editor-in-chief, which fact is evidence of the high esteem in which she is held by her class mates. The conduct of the Gonsolte is excellent and reflects credit not only upon the young ladies but upon the college itself. The pieces are well written and the whole presents a most pleasing appearance. Miss Robertson is a young lady of fine ability, as was evidenced by the high stand which she took among her classmates at Abbeville.
