Records of soldier Life.

The Charlotte Observer Of Sunday last
contains a short but valuable history of
the Forty-eighth North Carolina Regiment
of Infantry. of General John II. Cookies
Brigade, written by Captain w. II. Law
horn. Of Company ID.
The Forty-elghth was often on duty
near Richmond. and is remembered here
as a regiment of fine fighters and good
fellows Its last engagement was near
Appomattox on April S, 1865, the evening
before the day of the surrender.
Many such sketches OF North Carolina
regiments have been written out by sur
yivors, and published In the papers OF
that State. The North Carollnians are
far ahead OF us Virginians In the pre-
seryation OF the records OF the services
of their troops in the war. They have,
for instance, a printed roster Of all their
officers and men. We might have had
such Il roster years and years ago had
We taken the trouble 20 go about the
work In the right way; but we have not
yet made the first legislative step.
Our original rolls are on file in the
w di-tN'NOfbS Univ ~ Dul
whereas formerly we might have sent
our own clerks there and had the rolls
copied, under recently promulgated rules
Of the War Department they can now
only be copied by the highly-paid en-
ployees OF the Records Office. To have
them copied In this way would probably
cost us $1,000
We must see II Congress won't pass
a special act permitting us TO send our
own clerks 10 Washington TO do the copy
ing: bot II 1t VIII not consent to this.
Il would be better for our State to pay
n price far In excess OF the value OF the
work than TO continue to appear indif-
ferent 10 the duty tina, she owes to the
men who served her so well during the
1876 period.
There are TO be an unusual number
of Confederate reunions In Virginia this
summer. Senator Daniel has consented
10 address two OF these reunions. and We
wish that he would discuss this among
other subjects. Our idea is that our vir-
ginia rolls should b. SoDled. and brought

WEDNESDAY. .....JULY II, 1895
The Griffin Convention.

The Griffin convention, which is to be
held in Georgia to morrow. has attracted
much attention In that State, and more
or less in all the States.
Georgia has been styled "the Empire
State of the South" Her people are
proud OF her record as well as of the
future which she has every reason to
expect will be worthy Of that record
The Griffin convention is to be he'd at
the proper place-at least so far as the
State is concerned, and Georgia Is that
place.
The object of the promoters OF the
Griffin convention is to further the cause
Of the free coinage Of silver. The people
OF Georgia are perhaps better posted
than those OF any other State in the
Union on the subject OF the finances, or
1T least on the silver question. The
Atlanta papers represent both sides Of
he question, and are always ready TO
Engage In the battle for and against
rec coinage In fact, they never tire
IT the subject
We learn from our Georgia exchanges
hat the Griffin convention is likely TO
De a success. We confess that we do not
exactly understand who are 10 compose
It's membership. Here. for example, is
Richmond county. Georgia, which the
Augusta Chronicle says will send
thoroughly representative delegation, that
county having in its meeting TO select
delegates chosen men representing the
banking. farming. commercial, and pro-
fessional interests OF the county, but all
Of whom are said TO be in favor OF the
free coinage OF silver, 16 TO !. whether
any other countries will agree to unite
with ours or not. We have no faith in
that sort Of free coinage which the Rich
mond-county people are said to favor,
but of course the discussions in conven-
ton will touch ali such points. and will,
therefore, be full Of interest.
The Gwinnett Herald says that
the Griffin convention promises TO be
much more important than it was be-
lieved at first ii would be. County after
county is organizing free-silver leagues
and appointing delegates. and to that
on and gathering momentum at every
turn.
We could fiji our sheet with articles
from our Georgia exchanges intended to
show that the cause of free-coinage is
Aprospering in that State. However,
hat may be, there is chance at least
hat such representative body Of men
as will compose the Griffin convention
may stumble on some method OF bringing
Together the two factions of the Demo-
cratic party which are now divided on
the silver question. To denounce gold
bugs. however. Will not be to originate
any measure Of merit. If Georgia should
originate the needed legislation. she would
secure for herself undying honor. And
we shall continue to hope for the best
until there is no longer any foundation
upon which TO base hope.

Senator Chandler. of New Hampshire

MIR. Chandler, Of New Hampshire, says
that what he objects to Is "free-siiVer
coinage by the United States alone-lb
to l. This is getting to be very popular
manner of defining a mans position.
1t points out place for compromise
which is said TO be the basis Of states
manship.
MI Chandler is newspaper man. as
well as a senator. and favors Thomas
b. Reed for President. Mr.. Chambers
Concord organ speaks as follows:
Senator Chandler is quite as much op-
posed 10 the gold monometailism of Cleve-
land and Carlisle as he is TO free-silyer
coinage by the United States alone. In
deed. il the choice is TO be forced between
the single gold standard and the single
silver standard, he is not In favor OF the
former. Such choice. however, 1t VIII
not be necessary to make. Mr.. Chandler
stands for Republican bimetallsm, when
ne believes the Republican party will be
able 10 secure and perpetuate when re-
stored to political power',in all branches
of the National Government. If these
views are treason to the cause of safe
currency, let the most be made OF them
This Is rather a remarkable utteranee
TO come from Senator Chandler.

MARYLAND Wffe-Benting Law.

Baltimore has just afforded another
illustration of the truth Of the contention
that 1t is very difficult to frame law
that cannot be circumvented. Under u
Maryland statute the penalty for Wife
beating is the whpping-post. a case has
Just come UP in the Monumental City in
which a brutal husband. who had been
In the habit Of beating his wife. but feared
the taste OF the whipping-post. employed
one OF his workmen to beat her. AS the
whippng-post penalty does not extend 10
beating another mans wife. the agent es-
capped with a sentence of six months in
iai and the employer was not punished
at all.
Certainly this would seem to be an In
stance in which ought to apply the rule
that the act OF the agent Is the act OF
the principal, and that both are equally
responsible
