THE OLD SOLDIERS AT
WRIGHTSVILLE.
IPittSbOrO Record.

The annual encampment of the ex-
Confederate soldiers at Wrightsville
this week was greatly enjoyed by all
who attended. The encampment was
at Camp Holt, where the State Guard
had recently been encamped, and
whose tents (about 400 in number had
been left standing for the use of the
old Confederates. The encampment
was intended chiefly for the pensioners
those poor and disabled veterans 10
whom the State pays a small pension
and it was entirely free of cost to
them. All the railroads, with COM
rHendable liberality, transported them
free of charge, and the generous citi-
zens Of Wilmington fed them. Besides
the pensioners many other x-Confed
crates attended the encampment and
mingled with their old comrades.
Altogether there were about a thou
sand IN attendance, and among that
number there were few in favor of
the Third party. Those old heroes,
though afflicted and disabled, are still
true to the best interests of their State.
We were at Wilmington a day or
two during the encampment, and took
advantage of the opportunity to pay a
hurried visit to the camp, which was
anything but an attractive place, being
in the broiling sun without a particle
of shade), and with sand all around
ankle-deep. Ii was pathetic scene to
see these old, crippled soldiers meet
ing together and talking over the Incl
dents of the war. Many old comrades
had not met since the close of the war,
and it was really affecting to see them
meet. We noticed the meeting of two
old, gray bearded soldiers, who had
been members of the same company
and had not seen each other since the
war. They embraced like lovers. their
eyes filled with tears, and then they
began most earnest and affectlonate
conversation. This was their first meet
ing IN over twenty seven YEARS, and
probably will be their last

we predict for him an cnviable career.
