CONFEDERATE MoNUMEET.-The firm of
Diehl & Bro. of this place, have just COM
pleted, and will erect in few days, hands
some monument for the Confederate Cemetery
at Shepherdstown. This beautiful tribute of
affection has been procured by the energy and
patriotism of the Memorial Association of that
place, and will, we understand, be unveiled
on the occasion of the approaching annual
floral decoration. BY the way, what has be-
come of our Monument movemeut? The
funds already collected, we are aware. are in
competent hands, but they are far from being
enough, and the noble enterprise seems to
have died ont We. trust that the young
ladies, who deserve great credit for the ca
thusiastic and cheerful manner in which they
inaugurated this movement, will again enter
into it with renewed energy and zeal, and that
their labors will be croSned with abundant
success. Let us be not. behind our sister
towns in this matter, but erect memorial
shaft that will perpetuate to coming genera
tions the heroic deeds of those who offered up
their lives in defence of the land they loved.

The PRESS sCoNFERENcE.-The New
berry Herald copies the resolutions adop-
ted at the press conference, and adds:
The conference could not we'll have
done less than adopt the above generous
line, and We are rejoiced that it went
no further, aud We have no doubt that
all the Democratic papers fn the State
unrepresentcd on the occasion will fullx
and heartily endorse the resolutions
We go further in believing that they
will meet the approval of all anti Radi
calists, white and black, in the State,
and we indulge the hope that an earnest
and determined rally will be made in the
canvass approaching to rid the State of
its corrupt government.
The Sumter Fdtchmun says; at the
close of an editorial on this same sub.
ject:
"We may therefore, say that we heart.
lily endorse the position assumed by the
Press Conference, and call upon our peo.
pie of all classes to unite upon it. We
also endorse the call which has been
made for convention of the people of
the State, on the IS of June irrespective
of race color or previous condition. LIZ
there be a convention which shall repre-.
sent all classes of our citizens, and let
these eschewng for the time, national
politics aud past party names, and look
ing only to til, reformation of our State
Government, unite in constructing a
platform upon which all honest men may
stand. When this shall be accomplish
ed, then may we look with hope for de-
liveranoe, and the dawning of that day
of pence and prosperity which shall break
upon the long night OF disaster, misrule
and blood and oppression, through which
we have passed.
