F. Beach, who claimed to be a Methodist preacher, and was once a Roman Catholic, left an appointment to preach at Bold Spring church. YY’hen he anived on the ground lie was asked for his credentials, and not being able to produce any was refused entrance in¬ to the church to carry out his appoint- meat. Ilc went in the direction of Hudson river, and preached a Roman Catholic sermon the same afternoon in what is known as the Hall school house. He is not consistent, but is a pronounced tramp, lie said he had t wo confederates that would soon join him. From this man’s actions and sayings I would advise the pub- lie to beware. J. H. Si.mu. .

BATTLE-SCARRED VETERANS. let Everybody Come to the Confed¬ erate Reunion on August 6th. Twenty-five years ago the Confed¬ erate fathers laid down their arms, and with bleeding hearts saw the old flag furled. Many of Franklin’s host sons followed that old flag for four long years, and with a sad heart saw her wave the last time over a wreck of an army at Appomattox. When she went down they saw many battle- scarred soldiers weeping, and when Gen. Lee ordered them to stack their arms they were as eager to meet in mortal combat the mighty armies of Grant as they had been at any time during the war, but the voice of Lee was the voice of God to them, and if he had told them that death was in¬ evitable if they fought the fifty thous¬ and soldiers immediately confronting them, and almost a half a million more in the rear, and that lie desired them to meet death in their country’s name, they would have buckled on armor and on that bright April their life blood would have been spilt. But such was not the spirit of Lee. The cause was lost and he knew that all hopes were dead, and rather than sacrifice his men he or¬ th?old flag to be furled. Soldiers of the “lost cause,” what memories cluster around the name of Appomattox! What feelings are aroused when the sweet melodies of “Dixie” meets your cars! What love and admiration are aroused for your dead heroes when you hear the names Lee, Jackson, Davis, and countless who were your leaders in the noblest cause that ever inspired a pa¬ triot to iilit for his country! Con¬ federate sons, do you cherish the memory of your fathers? Do you sympathize with the cause for which they fought and died? Do you re¬ spect the gray hairs of that broken band that shall meet in Carnesville on the Gth of August? Then if you do, let all confederates, old confed¬ erates, young confederates, wives of the old confederates, sweethearts of the young confederates, come to Carnesville and show our love for the confederate cause and show our gray haired fathers that we endorse their cause, and that we believe they fought not in vain, and that their deeds are not.only commemorated in Richmond, Atlanta, Nashville and Columbus, but even in Franklin county we honor our dead and living heroes. Let no one come for the pleasure or excite¬ ment of the occasion, but only to cherish the memory of our noble an¬ cestors. One of our living heroes will be present and no doubt will make an excellent address to his old soldiers. We refer to Gen. Gordon. In con¬ nection with Gordon and the chosen speakers from home there will be sev¬ eral distinguished visiting confeder¬ ates who will make addresses. In addition to the speaking, etc., there will be exceptionally good music by one of the best bauds in the state, whose service has already been en¬ gaged for that occasion. Carnesville is expecting the largest crowd that lias ever been seen in Carnesville, and she will do all in her power to give all present a good dinner. *• # CROMER’S MILL. T. R.

L IPPINCO TT'S MAGAZINE, with its vr.rie* and excellent contents , is a library in itself. entire It was indeed a happy thought to print an novel in each number. Not a short novelette , but a long story such as you are used to get in book form and pay from one dollar to one dollar and a half for. Not only that, but with each number you get an abundance of other contributions , which gives you a good magazine besides the novel. It does not follow in old beaten paths,—which is an easy task,—hut is perpetually discovering new and pleasant ones, and following them too. The ringing blows which have been struck on the gateway of popular favor . have resounded through¬ out the entire land, and to-day Uppincott's Maga- tiae stands in the front rank of monthly publications, and is the most widcly-rcad-and-falked-of publica¬ tion of its kind in the world.
