yhe General Confederate Reunion.
We are in receipt of the Souvenir
of the great Confederate Reunion,
yvhich is to be held in Chattanooga
on July 8, 4 and 5,1890. It is an
exquisite bit of art The cover has
on the first page an immense U. 8.
jdag in colors, a Gordon, splendid the portrait, Gen¬
of General J. B.
eral Commanding the Cnited Con¬
federate Veterans, printed on the
same. The fourth page has the
Confederate flag, in proper colors
on its flight to the stars. Beneath
it is a colored illustration of the
laiuous scene at the battle of (he
■Wilderness. This expiinat'on is
found under it:
"The arttBt describes the mo
ment on May 12, 1864, when John
tton‘s D.vision had been surrounded
and captured, and General Lee had
ridden to the front to lead tbe
charge that was to save the city
of Richmond, Lifting his hat, Lee
was about to give the command,
when General Gordon rushed to
his side exclaiming: ‘To tbe rear,
Generali the safety of the army
demands it! Those are Virginians,
and they never fail, forward! » f
As the command ot the gallant
Georgian rang out, the line sprang
lorward to the charge, and two stal¬
wart poldiers seizing the reins of
old Traveler, forced the commander
they adored to go to tbe rear.”
There are thirty-six pages of de¬
scriptive matter enclosed by this
cover.
On July 3d the United Confeder¬
ate Veterans will hold their con¬
vention. At night there will be a
grand entertainment by the Ladies*
Forrest Monument Association. It
is to raise funds for the erection of
a statue of Genoral Forrest, the
greatest cavalry officer of the age
Juiy 4th will be celebrated by a
grand disj lay of one division of
military and seven divisions of
veterans, together with civic so
cietiea and trade displays. Gen¬
eral E- Kirby Smith will command
on that day, assisted by seven Di¬
vision Commanders.
July 5th will be spent on the field
of Chickamauga, with an historical
gathering on the summit ot Snod
graBs bill in the afternoon. The
mountain tops and the Tennessee
Wiil be ablaze with fireworks on
the nights of the 1th and 6th.
The railroads give one taro rates,

talked less than Corporal Tanner
did when in office, but he has man¬
aged to get away with the huge
appropriation for pensions just as
effectually as the doughty corporal
could have done. The- appropria¬

pensioners will be compelled to
wait until Jnly 1 for their money

Editors North Globgia Times:—
I desire to say a few words to the
kood people of Murray through
yoyr devoted paper. First I can¬
not make the race for Representa¬
tive notwithstanding there is an
innumerable host of my friends ag¬
gie# me up to make the race for
Representative; they have been
agoniziDg wi:h me for quite a while
and still agg me to come out and
make the race. I find from the
pulsation of the. heait of politics
that there will be a primary elec¬
tion ordered in the near future—
this I will indorse and stapd by
firmly. I will now proceed to ex¬
plain myself before mv innumera¬
ble strong friends. My dear friends
I am a poor man and have got a
family to cure for and feed and
while I have an exalted opinion of
you for agoing me up to make this
race, I am compelled to refuse you
for this t.me, for this reason, I cun -
not leave my family and work for
six months and go into tie remote
corners of this county, and talk
and agonize and sponge on the
good people of Murray who are not
my strong friends, to try and induce
them to vote in on? solid phalanx
tor me. Friends take notice please?
don't hold to me until it will be too
late for you to get a good men to
represent you in the uext Legis¬
lature; so please don‘t agg me np
to make tae race for representative
any longer and attend the primary
and go for a good man.
B. Rosten.
P, S. Messrs, Editors, should
there not be a candidate for repre¬
sentative from this o unty, is there
anybody that has the power to
appoint a representative for this
time &c.? B. R.
[No. But should nobody present
their name, then we insist that
you make the race. Edrs. J
