NOT \ REBEL.
Conscientious support Ofthc Constitute
cd Authority. but Reverence for the
Dead OF the Lost Cause.

[By Telegrapi 10 the Free Press and Timcsl
CANDIES, :. C., June 20.-Thc monument
erected by the women of Kcrshaw county in
memory Of the Confederate dead was dcdi-
Gated to-day There was grand military
demonstration and 5000 people attended.
Senator Hampton delivered the memorial
Grafton. lie paid tribute to the faith, devo-
ton and patience of the Southern women.
They would always rcpel with scorn and in
digna,ion the mputation that monuments to
the Confederate dead marked spot where
traitors slept. We of the South were neither
traitors nor rebels, nor was ours in any prop
or sense rebellion. 1t was strict
ly civil war, growing out of conflict
ing interests and different constructions OF the
constitution by opposing sections OF the
country. He congratulated the country that
the future was ausp!cious, that the scars of
war were being obliterated by time and de-
manded that our former enemies do justice
to the motives that inspired our conduct. lie
believed if the settlement of issues had been
left to the old soldiers the country would
have been saved the shame and humiliation
of reconstruction. lie counselled obedience
to the laws and TO the supremacy OF The III
stltutlon, anu SAD III requires only liu-
tual fOrbearance, concession and generosity
on the part of the late coatending
| sections to bring about this result,
and surely every statesmen, every
lover of his country, desires TO see
| this end reached, and 1t can BE- attained with
out loss of sef-respect by any honorable men
North or South without any manly deprecla-
ton, without the sacrifice OF one honest con-
viciion or one cherished principle
The great questions which were at issue
between the North and South and which were
| left to the arbltrament of war were decided
against u.s. but the sword never has decided
and never will decide question involving II
great principle The tiual Judgment as to
the motives and actions of man rests with u
higher tribunal than any on earth,
and to that last great court OF ap-
peal must every question of right
and wrong be submitted. But we
have divine command to yield o edience to
the constituted authority, and II is the duty
of every good citizen who receives the pro-
lection of the Government to obey its laws.
| For our convictions we are responsible alone
| to our own conscicnces aud to our God.
| Hence there is no inconsistency in our giving
to the constitution and laws under which we
live, earnest, conscientious support while we
hold in tender reverence the memory OF the
men who died for the cause we held to be
| Just and right.
Senator Butler, Governor Thompson and
other distinguished persons were present.

1t is hardly necessary to say, ut this late
day, that the question of insurance has be-
come OF vast importance to property holders
throughout the country, and closely concerns
all branches of business, and in its relations
to commercial credit is identified with the
business and interests. 1t protects both rich
and poor,and enables industry and enterprise
to preserve and secure the result of their la
bors,and to render them available for still lar
ger prosperity. And not only property hold
ers, but every individual in the community has
Il vital interest in those benefcent forms of in
surance which give an indemnity in case of
death or accident. One of the largest, most
popular and most trustworthy agencies in
New England is that of Gen. Theodore S.
feck. lie represents mutual and stock COM
panies that for reliability and soundness are
among the best in the country, and his ia
cli!ities for effecting absolutely safe insurance
to any amount are second to no other agen-
CIV. His business extends all over the
State and large as it already is, 1t is
constantly increasing a gratifying proof
of the prompt, honorable and satisfactory
manner in which the business of the agency
is transacted. From the very first, the ca
reer of the agency has been fruitful of good
results, both to patrons and the companies
represented. Insurance of all knds-fire,
life and accident-may be effected at Gen.
Pcck's agency, on the most favorable posi-
bile terms, and with the certainty on the part
of the insurer that he will be fairly and
squarely treated and his loss-if any occurs
promptly, honorably, and satisfactory,
adjusted. Finally, all those seeking insur
ance of any class will do well to call at Gen
| reck's agency. They will find 1t busy
place, but they may be sure of good treat
ment and satisfactory results.

BURLINGTON SIGNAL STATION
Closed suddenly by Orders from Head

Orders were telegraphed to Observer ID. n.
Farrell last Friday afternoon to close the
United States signal Office here at midnight,
and have the effects ready for moving Mr.,
Farnell (who recently relieved George G..
SchaeiIer at this station, to enable the latter
to take needed vacation) will remain IN the
city for few days, or until he is assigned
to some new field. The Burlington signal
station, thus done away with because of in
sufficient appropriation, was established in
the City Hotel May "a, 1871, and remained in
that building till August l., 1874, when
it was removed to Fishers block On De-
cember /, 1873 it was again removedto How
ard Opera House, where it has remained till
the present time. Those who have been in
charge of the Office are X. r. Martin,
Geo. IL. Ellery, ID. c. Ralston, w. A. Chap
man, j. F. Tenney, c. Cramer, j, II. Shcr-
man, Geo. G. Schaeffer and Dan. N Far
nell.
The Office has been inspected fourteen
times. In every case the Office was found in
excellent ORDER the records well kept, the
observer faithful and attentive to his duties.
No observation has ever been missed--a mos,
creditablc record. Mr.. Farnell, in his short
term, has made many acquaintance who
will regret his departure,

The Melancholy Fate OF Richard
Lynch.


Another dreadful warning against the
abuse of intoxicating liquors is furnished by
the shocking end of Richard Lynch, who
was drowned in the lake on Friday evening
Young Lynch, who was twenty-seven years
of age and unmarried, had been working on
a boat at the Central Vermont freight dock
which was being laden with stone. AT 6
o'clock Friday night he came up street to
make some purchases, and became very
much intoxicated. He met his father and
invited him TO take some beer with him, but
the invitation was declined and subsequent
~ the father saw the young man near low
GROCERY kept by one Watson and heard
some one call to him, "Iiurry up, Dick,
your whiskey is getting cold" This was
the last time the old gentleman saw his
son alive. The young man returned to the
boat at 3 o'clock and went to bed two hours
later, sleeping in the cabin, with two
other men. In the morning these men found
Lynch's clothing where he had thrown ii the
night before, but of the unfortunate young
man himself nothing could be seen. The
conclusion was soon reached that he had
fallen overheard during the night, and the
water was dragged for his body. AT about
6 o'clock Saturday evening the body was
brought to the surface. Lynch had evident.
ly arisen in the course of the night and had
stumbled or fallen overheard and he must
have sunk almost Immediately to the bottom,
| for no cutlery was heard and the body found
| Just Off the stern of the boa. where he must
have fallen in.
Sheriff Barton was Immediately notified
and he in turn notified Mayor Morse, WHO
despatched DR.. j. ii. Linsley to the spot
DIR. Linsley reported that no signs of violence
were discernible and that the case was I'M
doubtedly one of accidental drowning
and the body was then turned over to the re
latiyps
