OIEY BATTERY REUNION.-The Otey Bat
terry held its annual re Onion at The park Of
the James. River Brewery yesterday. II
was attended by about tbirty-five Of its sur
wing members. besides the invited guests,
among whom were Captain Maxwell +.
Clarke, Mtssrs. George A. Ainslie, James
Blair, Walter Simmons. and others. Let
tiers regretting inability 10 attend were read
from Colonel J. Lyle Clarke, r. W. Gwath-
mey, j. w. Haney, and G. NJ. Smith.
Among the members in attendance from a
distance were Messrs. George Savage and
r. c. Burton, Baltimore; J. Henry Reid.
Alexandria; julius c. Frederick, Parkels.
burg; J. III. Sharp, North Carolina; and
Samuel Harvey, OF Cumberland county.
After the usual greetings upon assem-
bling the members engaged in pitching
quoits, playing backgammon, and other
games until dinner was announced. This
necessary adjunct to successful festive
gathering was gotten up IN fine style, and
TO which ample justice was done by those
present.
A most pleasant incident Of the rettnion
dinner was the presentation, in brief but
eloquent speech by Mr.. George Savage, of
a handsome medal-one OF a number which
were struck off in Paris during the war by
order OF Colonel Lamar, Of Georgia, to be
presented to the survivors Of the Stonewall
brigade--to Mr.. Julius &. Frederick. who
was wounded at Manassas and at Kerns-
town while member OF that famous bri-
gade. The medal bears on one side, in re-
lief, likeness Of Stonewall Jackson, with
the date OF his birth and death, and on the
other the names Of the battles in which the
Stonewall brigade participated.
After speeches and toasts the usual rou-
tine business was transacted, and the COM
psny and guests dispersed, all agreeing that
il had been one OF the most enjoyable OF
their post beilum retinions.

To The COlOred People.

You have no doubt already begun
to realize the distress that must result
from the effects of this unprecedented
drought. The landowners and farmers
whose condition is best under any ca.
lamity that may ensue, are in anxiety
and fearful forebodings for their fate.
How will it effect you? Have you
any guarantee against hunger and want?
We do not wish to alarm you, but to
bestir you to action betimes, lest the
evil day overtake you, Those of you
who are without farms, without money
and friends can do no better than to es
tabIish good characters for credit and
labor. Your labor is your stock in
trade; the better its character, the
better will be your stock and your con-
ditiOn, VIII you heed and be wise

Rowland Station.

Editor Standard Nothing is going
on here now, but we have been hear
ing for two months what is coming-a
regular train. 1t has been sung "Mon.
day week" until it is monotonous.
Monday week comes and it is still
Monday week. But we are very
patient people.
There has been so much said about
the drought that l did not intend to
say anything, but let me say that the
corn fields present an appearance that
is simply shocking. l find corn in
many fields that is withered and dry
from root to tassel. l think it fitting
that our Legislature repeal the rain
laws and make no more.

The q. Us.

The professional and business men
and men of leisure around the public
square have during these hot days re-
solved themselves inadvertently into
five or six conversational clubs, which
meet every afternoon somewhat as fol-
lows:
Conversational Club No. | meets at
n. E. corner of the Warren House,
and discusses scientific, philosophic and
general and internal Improvement mat
tiers. Col. Muntord usually presides,
and in his absence d. L. Brown pro-
ceeds to business. Sam Colville, Mat.
Smart, Maj. Cardwell, DR.. Shafter
and E. G. Mead are honorary mem
bers.
G. G. No. 2 meets at the S. W. cor
ner of the courthouse, discusses mat
tiers in general. G. B. Davis presides
till the anecdotes become too hard,
when he retires, and G. W. Parks, by
common consent, is recognized as presi-
dent pro. tenn. A. j. Curle is recog-
nized as chief speaker.
G. G. No. 3 meets in front of the
Clerk and Masters office and discusses
financial and speculative questions with
CHS Ramsey as president, "Web"
Jones Encouragement and John Ram
sey foreign minister. No financial
transaction escapes this council.
G. G. No. 4 meets at Fleming's cor
ner and represents the young America
of the day, full of life, fun and wit,
and gallant with the ladies, Smith
Walling usually presides, with George
Beech as vice president.
G. G. No. 5 meets alternately al
Faulkner's corner and the s. W. cor.
ner of the Mountain City Hotel and
discusses commerce, trade aud farming
and general topics of the day. The
senior member present usually preside
and Sam Pennebaker acts as secretary

rives its name from the fact that it reg
ulates those portals of the body through

"The water supply" is the theme of
our city dailies to the extent of two
columns day. If it were not for this
drought we could not endure this mum
dation, but it is some relief in the alb
sence of rain to hear people talk about
water, whether we get any or not.
The gist of the matter seems to be that
Nashville, having "scooped" Edgefeld
about year ago to swell out her d.
mansions for the Centennial, now has
turned off the water supply and pro-
poses to substitute therefor "squirt-gun
engines" and earth built "cisterns," to
which the Edgfeldians rush into the
newspapers to offer special demurrer.

The Drought.

Our correspondents from all parts of
the country have been faithful to re-
port that the drought continues una
bated, but we have thought it enough
to state the sad fact one time hence
they will find that part of their reports
omitted. 1t is a sad affliction, indeed,
but murmuring will not relieve us, to
say nothing of its bad effects upon us.
We therefore counsel cheerfulness,
good will cooperation and economy
among neighbors and friends. This is
no time for strife, divifions and heart
brrnings among neighbors, Let the
more fortunate assist the less fortunate
in their distressed condition and let
those thus assisted prove themselves
true to their obligations and worthy of
the confidence thus reposed in them.
"Where there's a will, there's a way"
1t was in 1854, when the greatest
drought of this century, that of 1881
excepted, that Methodist preacher
stopped to spend the night with widow
lady in East Tennessee, and seeing her
prospects for corn were blasted, he re-
marked that he regretted very much
to see it. The old lady replied that il
was truly distressing, but, continued
she, II thank the Lord that my neigh
bors are all in the same fix" Let US
hope that no one will entertain this
sentiment, much less make it prayer
If our people of all ranks and grades
will nO.O begin to economist and frater
nize they can make this great drough
much lighter than it otherwise would
be.

At reunion of the chaplains of the

utterances, but an honest and high

boldness because of their honesty. II
he had disavowed his sentiments he
would have disgraced his section and
disguised the other. Honesty always
