SPEECHES —OOOD EKKUNU—OHEAT EN
THUSIASM t.AItOE CROWD.
Titov, Ala., July 22, 1875.
Editor* Timex: Yesterday was the
grandest day in the history of our
prosperous little city- the oeoossion
of the annual re-union of the Pike
County Veteran (’Confederate) Asso
ciation. At an early hour Tuesday
afternoon the late soldiers, many ol
them accompanied by their families,
commenced to pour in from every
llroetion, and by nightfall, between
fifteen hundred and two thousand
people were in camps, in a beautiful
grove in the northwest portion of the
city. Col. C. A. Colvin, senior officer
of the county, arrived early and as
sumed command. At 9:23 r. M. the
Reception Committee, accompanied
by the Brundldge and Troy cornet
bands, and a large concourse of citi
zens and soldiers, was at the depot
to meet the expected speakers.
When the train arrived, it was found
that not a single one or the speakers,
who had promised to come, was
aboard. It was a sad disappointment,
but nothing was left but to make the
best of the circumstances. However,
the train brought a large crowd of
soldiers, ladies and gentlemen from
Columbus, Union Springs, Mont
gomery, mid other places. A broken
procession was formed, headed by
drums, and marched to camps, where
Lieut. T. J. Carlisle, made an expla
nation, and assured the vast, throng
that exercises of tDo morrow would
go on notwithstanding the disap
pointment.
Peacock’s Minstrels, an amateur
troup, then took possession of the
stand and treated the crowd to some
very good music. After they were
through a procession containing
from lino to S(H) old soldiers, was form
ed, headed by the minstrels. Col.
Kirkpatrick of Montgomery coun
ty, late of Pike, who was camped on
the ground, was sent for and took
command, assisted by Lieut. \V. L.
Wilson as Adjutant, and ('apt. \Y. 1)
Henderson. The procession was
marched in columns of fours, to and
around the Public Square, halting i.i
front of the Ruby Saloon, where all
who would indulge, was furnished
something for the inner man. The
column was again formed and after
marching through some of the prin
cipal streets halted in front of the
court house, where speeches were
made byCol. Kirkpatrick, Capt. A.
C. Wiley and Lieut. Wilson. Capt,
Henderson was also called upon, but
declined. White the speaking was
in progress, Capt. T. M. Murphree,
who wore his old Confederate Gray
Jacket, selected some 25 or 30 old
Confederates, among whom youreor
respondent had the honor to be, and
after the main procession had repair
ed to camp, he formed them in ranks,
marched them to a convenient place,
issued unimunition and Armed them
with fowling pieces, and informed
them that it was the intention to
have u small skirmish. We were
marched and double quicked for
about, one mile and a half up Dill and
down, through the woods, over deep
ravines, and completing a complete
flank movement, deploying in rear of
the camp on the edge of a heavily
woodt I branch, fn the rear of us,
just, on the brow of the hill, was two
Napoleon guns, (?) improvised for the
occasion, under charge of Captrin W.
F. Parker. At a given signal our ar
tillery broke forth, and the firing
commenced along our line, and for
an hour the rattle of musketry and
roar of cannon, broke the stillness of
the early morning air, ceasing occa
sionally for us to charge our pieces.
Old soldiers tell us, and we have every
reaxon to brliere them, thut it reminded
them rery forcibly of the times that
“tried mens, souls.”
Morning at length dawned, and
with it came more people, front every
direction they poured in. At nine
o’clock, when the grand parade be
gan to form, tlic crowd was variously
estimated ut from 2,500 to :1,500, and
we think the latter figure nearer cor
rect .
The two cornet bands met at the
rißimsofthe Troy band and joined
together under the lead of Prof. Da
vie. Here a splendid wagon and
team was ready to convey them to
the camps. Marching through the
streets, discoursing sweet music, they
were followed by an immense crowd;
in fact the streets were a perfect jam.
More people were in Troy than have
been here for years.
Arriving at the camp, a column of
four’s wus formed by Col. Colvin,
commandant, assisted by his adju
tant, Capt. W. D. Wood; Col. W. C.
Mcncfee, chairman of the Executive
Committee; Dr. W. H. Roberts, Bur
goon; Lieut. W. L. Wilson, Aid-de-
Camp, and Capt, J. K. Murphree,
Chairman of the Committee on En
campment.
This column contained not less
than 1,000 old soldiers, and some put
the number as high ns 1,500. They
inarched to the grand stand, where
they were dismissed to make them
selves as comfortable as possible.
Prayer was offered by Rev. R. A.
Jackson, chaplain. Lieut. Carlisle
made the opening speech, which was
well received. Letters were then read
from prominent general officers, writ
ten in response to invitations to be
present on this happy occasion; also,
a letter from M. M. Pomery, Esq., of
New York, regretfully declining an
I invitation to be present, and contain
i ing many words of good cheer.
COLUMBUS, GA., SATURDAY, JULY 24, L 875.
Lieut W. L. ’Wilson then came for
ward and unfurled the battle-torn
tlagof the Twenty-Second Alabama
Infantry. Once more our eyes feast
ed on the beloved “Southern Cross.”
Yes, there is tlie cross of Heaven’s
own blue, and the blazing, golden
stars upon the field of rail, reminding
us of the almost rivers of blood which
wore poured out in its defence. Lieut.
Wilson made a short, eloquent and
appropriate address, and his words
went, straight to the heart of every
Confederate soldier in that immense
crowd; and concluded by proposing
throe cheers for our fallen liag. From
every soldiers’ throat, went up that
long to be remembered yell, which in
years ngone so often sent terror to
the hearts of our enemies. Slowly he
furled it, and to our mind eame the
beautiful lines of tlie poet priest,
Father Ryan;
•Furl that banner, for ‘tin weary.
Pound its staff ’tis-drooping dreary,
Fold it, furl it. for ’tis boat;
For there's not a soul to nave it,
And there h not out* left to love it:
fn the blood that heroes gave it.
Fold it. furl, let it rent."
Addresses wore thou made by Capt.
W. D. Wood, Hon. Jno. A. Padgett,
member of tlie State Board of Eduea
tion, of Rutledge; Hon. J. H. Parks,
also of Rutledge; Capt. A. 11. Owens
and State Senator W. 11. Parks, of
this city. All these gentlemen did
themselves and the occasion credit;
and their words of good cheer and
patriotic advice will long he remem
bered by their old comrades who
heard them.
Dinner was now announced, and
all hands repaired to the tables and
partook of the good cheer which tlie
hospitality of old l’ike had prepared
for the occasion.
Dinner being over the Association
was called to order for tlie purpose
of electing officers for the ensuing
year, and adopting a constitution.
Hie committoo on constitution sub
mitted one, which was adopted.
Tho valedictory was delivered by
Capt. L. H. Bowles, associate editor
of the Troy Megxemjer, who lost an
arm while wearing “Tho Gray.” The
next meeting, or reunion, was set for
Wednesday before the fourth Sunday
in July, 1878. Benediction was then
pronounced by tho Chaplain, and the
Pike County Soldiers’ Reunion for
1875, was numbered with the things
past.
In the afternoon some of the young
people repaired to Murphree’s Hall,
where, inspired by tho strains of the
violin, they gave themselves ovor to
Terpsiehorean pleasures. At night
McSwean’s Thespln corps,from Brun
lidge, played Revenge and Rip Van
Winkle, to a fair audience at the
chapel of the Female College. Their
performance was ut least creditable
to amateures without any scenic ad
vantages.
To-night the young folks, not hav
ing enjoyed themselves sufficiently
yesterday afternoon, are having a
pleasant (?) dance at tlie hall. Gra
cious! ain't it hot for a dance?
We are needing rain considerably.
In fact, some sections of tho country
are suffering, though crops generally
are looking well.
Being full of re-union, shaking
hands “across tho bloody chasm,” I
must bid you good night.

PROTEST OP PI.IMHALL.
London, July 23. A protest placed
by Mr. Piimsall on tho table of the
House of Commons last night is pub
lished. In it he says: I protest in
the name of God against the delay of |
tho shipping bill, although the "bill
itself is an atrocious scheme, there
is enough humanity and knowledge
in the House to change it into a good
measure. He denounces the present
laws against breach of contract,
which leaves sailors who have un
knowingly agreed to sail in unsea
worthy ships with the alternative of
tho jail or death, and continues: I
charge the Government with witting
ly and willingly playing into the
tiands of market murderers, inside
and outside tho House, to secure tlie
continuance of the present murder
ous system. I desire to unmask the
villians who sit in this House, fit rep
resentatives of more numerous but
not greater villians outside. I de
mand that the bill be proceeded with.
Failing in this, I lay upon the head
of tlie Premier, and his colleagues,
the blood of all who perish next win
ter from preventable causes and call
for them against him the wrath
of God.

SPEECH OF PENDLETON—DEMOCRACY IN
THE ASCENDANCY.
Gallkpolis, 0., July 23.—1n tho
convention yesterday Mr. Pendleton
spoke of tlie meeting of the Republi
can convention last year and the
claims in its platform, but said that
this year it tunes its voice on a dif
ferent key, and only declared itself
in favor of our public school system
and separation of Church and State.
Upon these points he said the Demo
crats could have no argument, with
the Republicans, and he quoted from
the platform to show t hat the Demo
cratic party would uphold the State
Constitution In this respect; He in
terprotod the platform to mean ad
herence to the principles of govern
ment, established by the fathers; op
position to all encroachments of one
department upon another, or of the
Federal power upon the constitution
al rights of the States; equalllty be
fore the law of all citizens; one
Presidential term; retrenchment
wherever there is extravagance;
reform whereever there is
abuse; no subsidies; public lands for
actual settlers; a tariff for revenue
only; equal and exact justice to all;
religion free; no secular education iu
public schools; opposition to sump
tuary laws, and to interference with
social habits not criminal to malig
nate espionage; and on financial
quest ions, a cessation of contraction ;
a sound and sufficient currency; pro
motion qf industries, the surest road
to tho appreciation of paper to u par
with gold ; greenbacks instead of na
tional bank notes; greenbacks for
customs to the extent that the neces
sities of the government will permit.
Tills platform, lie claimed, had
been misrepresented. It called for a
currency equal to the wants of trade,
and that he claimed was a fitting
measure for tho volume of currency;
every issue of Government paper,
whether a legal-tender or not; every
restricted banking system has been
an effort to make and keep a curren
cy equal, according to tho judgment
of the Government, to the wants of
trade. So, with every free banking
system, the Democrats do not favor a
deprioiated currency.
He thought he interpreted the opin
ion of tin! party and the platform,
when he declared they were in favor
of coin as the basis of the currency;
that a paper currency should he con
vortalile into coin at par; that the
party desired a return to specie pay
ments as speedily as tho intervals of
labor and business will permit; that
wo would be glad to return immedi
ately, if honor and good faith and
justice would permit, and it was pos
sible the Democratic, party is not and
never has been in favor of repudia
tion in any form. We do believe it is
our highest duty to fulfill all our con
tracts and obligations, according to
tho spirit and letter of our promises.
We are not now and never have been
in favor of a volume of currency,
changing and fluctuating according
to the whims and the interests of
bankers,and of the demands of reck
less speculators, but sufficient for the
easy, active, economical and profit
able interchange of commodities, and
as fixed and stable as the nature of
the case will allow, and so long as wo
must have Govern men paper curren
cy, we prefer greenbacks, which are
sound and cheap and good, to Na
tional Bank note, which, at the out
set, cost the people 6 per cent., and
are, at. last, only redeemable in green
backs.
Ho confessed that there were de
fects and dangers in this coin basis
system; that the superstructure of
paper was larger than tlie foundation
of coin, and that as the superstruc
ture grows higher it grows wider and
longer. But lie would not discuss
to-day the merits of the various kinds
of currency. The present necessities
demand relief that should be prompt
ly furnished. He repeated thut he
was a hard money man ; thutn return
t.o specie payment should be kept
steadily in view in legislation and ac
tion, and that, wise statesmanship
will seek the means of reconciling
such return with the true interests of
labor and business, and justice to the
debtor. Resumption can not be
forced; it must bo the proper out-'
growth of surrounding, healthy con
ditions, or it will be neither benefi
cial or permanent. When in Con
gress he voted against the legal-tender
act, believing the law unconstitution
al and the policy unwise. As the pol
icy had become interwoven with our
term of finance and trade, he would
seek ail tho good he could find in it.
He would not abandon specie pay
ment, but would not rush ruthlessly |
to specie payments over the prostra-1
tion of business and the ruin of the
debtor. The Democrats established
tho sub-Treasury system, and the
Government in 1801 paid nothing but
gold and silver. A Republican Con
gress pass'd the bond act, the legal-!
tender act, and the National Bank
act. Gold and silver ceased to circu
late, and in 1805 tlie various issues of
paper money had reached an enor
mous sum. The Republican system
of finance was to contract tho cur
rency, and if necessary to this end,
increase the interest-paying debt,
and contraction has been steadily
going on. With tho decrease in tho
currency there has been a decline in
the prosperity and happiness of tho
country, until now we are confronted
with a condition of affairs, which all
feel too keenly to jnake description
necessary. To-day there is more
property for sale on executions by
the sheriffs of Ohio than ever before.
Gold and paper stand to-day at a dif
ference of 14 per cent.; a year ago the
difference was It) per cent, Republi
cans claim contraction ns a remedy
for these things.
Congress has passed a law declaring
that resumption shall take place in
January 1879, and the Treasury is
preparing for this by buying gold
and silver. Every dollar of gold pur
chased with bonds for the redemp
tion of greenbacks adds to the
amouut of interest. It is tho old
story of funding tv debt, which pays
no interest. He showed by compar
ison that exports of flour, wheat, cot
ton, petroleum, meats, turpentine,
tallow, tobacco and timber had fallen
off $88,000,000 since last year; and
claimed that we had been burning
the candle at both ends.
Tho Democratic party points to a
middle path as the way to safety.
Abandon this policy of contraction;
stop tinkering with the currency;
stop this effort at forcing resump
tion; give stability for a time; give
business a moment to revive; pro
mote industry and production; stim
ulate enterprise by the prospect of
gain ; labor more and spend less.
The great want of the country is an
entire freedom for labor; a removal
of every obstacle; the presence of ev
ery aid; fair prices; steady market
and ready sales are aids, and to
secure these a sufficient and
sound currency and less interest are
iudisponsable, and if to those be add
ed low taxes, rigid economy, simplic
ity of government and purity of ad
ministration, the movement toward
resumption will be continued ami ac
eelearted.

and Maps.
The work originally published under the title
of Thu New American Cyuloimcdia wus com
pleted in 1863, since which time the wide eirculs
tion which it bus attained iu all purls of the
United States, and the signal developments which
have taken place in every branch of Heieiiee, lit
erature and art, have iuducud the editors and
publishers to submit it to mi exact and thorough
revision, and to issue anew edition < utitlod The
American Cycloilv-dia.
Within tlie Inst ten years the progress of dis
covery in every department of knowledge has
made anew work of reference an imperative
want.
The. movement of political atralrs lias kept pace
with the discoveries of science, and their irulttu
application to the industrial and useful arts end
the convenience and refinement of social life.
Great wars and consequent revolutions have no
cur red, involving natiounl changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own country,
which was at its height when the last volume oi
the old work appeared, has happily been ended,
mid anew course of commercial and industrial
activity has been commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by the indefutigablo ex

The great political revolutions of the lust do
cade, with the natural result ol the lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and
! of whose lives every one is curious to kuow the
particulars. Great battles have been fought and
important sieges maintained, of which the de
tails are as yet preserved only iu the newspapers
or in tho transient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent and authentic history.
In preparing the present edition fir the proas,
it has accordingly been the uim of the editors to
bring down the information to the latest possi
ble dates, and to furnish un accurate account of
the most recent discoveries in ietonce. of every
fresh production in literature, and of the newest
inventions iu tho practical arts, as well as to give
a succinct and original record of the progress of
political and historical events.
The work has been begun after long ami care
ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample
resources lor carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of the original stereotype plates have
been used, but every page lias been printed on
new type, forming iu taut anew Cyclopedia, with
the sumo plau and compass us its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
and with such improvements in its composition
as have boeu suggested by longer experience and
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time iu the preseut edition have been added
not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity aud force to the cxpluuatious In
the text. They embrace all branches of science
and of natural history, and depict the most
famous aud remarkable features of scenery,
architecture and nrt, as well as the various pro
cesses of mechanics and manufactures.
Although intended for instruction rather titan
embelishmeut, no pains have been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the. cost of their
execution is euormous, and it is believed they
will find a welcome reception as an admirable
feature of the Cyclopedia, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will be completed
iu sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing
about bOO pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
It ouc grain oi Vaccine Virus, taken from tho
cow’s mlder aud kept dry for years, then mois
tened, and the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
in it and drawn gently on the arm, so as not to
draw the blood, will so impregnate and change
tho entire system as to prevent tho party so vac
cinated from taking the most loathsome of dis
eases (small pox) for an entire life; again, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
impunity?
We claim that there is such u remedy, and that
we have prepared it, and applied it, and proved
it in our Anti-malarial or Em hymial Bolt—and
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear oi
having any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chills and Fever, Billions or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver ami
Hploeu, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, aud that it will cure all the above dis
eases, except the worst esses of Blllious and Yel
low Fever.
This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it corrects the humors of the body and
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, uiid thus enabling it to per orm its various
dutftis without fearing the effects Of malaria in
the least.
It has been tried in thousands of crhos without
a failure.
They can be obtained from the proprietors iu
any quantity at the Towell Building, junction of
Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3. or $6 with a guaran
tee that it will cure or the money refunded.

is stamped upon them.

Messrs. Love ii Willson: Gentlemen—ln April
last I was taken sick with regular Fever and
Ague, having it every alternate day. After it hud
run on me for two weeks. I wus induced to try
one of your Anti-malarial belts; so I discarded all
medicine, and simply wore one of your Belts, as
directed, nnd my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for some three or four
times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe
tite and clear skin; and iu future, if I should ever,
have a Chill or Ague, I would want one of your Pads,
aud no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
so unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may
be fortunate enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,

Drs. Love A Willson:
On the first day of December last I was taken
with Chilis aud Fever in Thomasville. Southwes
tern Ga., and whs treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to stop it only
for a few days at a time. It made such inroads
on my constitution that my physician pronoun
ced me to be in the first stages of consumption,
wh en I accidentally met up with Drs. Love A Will
sou’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
me. I have had but unu chill since, and that was
the firat day after putting it on. lam now in as
good health us I ever was in my lile, and think
this Belt a God-send to the afflicted.
