Major Walden of the Third Regiment Inspect ing the Encampment Grounds-Leu-
 tenant Jones Also Here.

Maj. w. J. Walden of the Third regl- ment was in the city yesterday inspect ing the encampment grounds and look ing after matters pertaining to the en- campment of his regiment at East Lake, beginning June 8. Major Walden is quite a clever gentleman and an excellent of ficer.
 Lieut.. Samuel G. Jones arrived yester- day and will begin today the arrange ments of the targets for the encampment of the Third regiment
 Maj. D. l.. Higdon informed a repre- sentative of the State Herald yesterday that work is progressing nicely on the encampment grounds at East Lake. Two car loads of lumber were received yes terday and the carpenters will have all the conveniences completed on schedule time for the arrival of the Third regi- ment. The grounds will be cleaned of all rubbish stumps and undergrowth and the drill grounds carefully graded. The purpose is to make East Lake so attrac- tive that it will require the efforts of an expert ballot box fiXer in future to keep it from being made the regular camping grounds of the Alabama state troops.

THIRD EDITION. LANCES SILVER IN DEBATE An Exciting Night Session of
 the Assembly. QUESTION OF CONFIRMATION As Presented by the Majority and Minority Reports Was the Real lssue-Ihe Points
 Made-No Vote Reached.
QUESTION OF CONFIRMATION

The night session of the general assem- bly of the Cumberland Presbyterian church was exciting, not to say more.
 Majority and minority reports from the committee on theological seminary were up for consideration.
 The meat of the issue was the con firmation of Rev. R. V. Foster and Rev. B. G. Mitchell as members of the faculty of the theological seminary. The oppo- sition appears to have been strongest against the latter gentleman. A doc trinal question is understood to cut 0 considerable figure in his case. The ma jority report is against confirmation; the minority report favors it.
 Commissioners and the audience gen. erally are inclined to accord the honors of the evening to Judge Green, chancellor of Cumberland university, whose expla- nation of the legal features of the case was lucid and masterly.
 The assembly adjourned without reach ing a vote.

 pr. Woodrow's Splendid Speech.
 Memphis, Tenn, May 26.-In today's session of the general assembly of the Southern Presbyterian church the com mittee on bills and overtures brought in several reports on the overtures placed in their hands. One from the presbytery of Florida, asking if 1t De regular for a ses- sion to be moderated by other than min- ister, the pastor being absent, was an- swered in the affirmative. Another, ask ing as to whether one elder can ever con- stitute a session. there being, for any req son, but the one, was answered In the negative. There was division of opin- ion on this matter, and it went to the docket.
 Overtures touching the licensure ques- tion were also answered in the negative by the assembly.
 pr. Smith of the committee on foreign m ssions presented long report, which was docketed.
 ble submitted report as to Dr. McLean's address on that cause, which was adopt ed.
 pr. Morton submitted a report on sys- tematic beneficence, which shows that of seventy-six presbyteries sixty-Seven only reported in which are 2776 congregations, of which 30S give to all the assemby's causes and 556 to none of them. The sum paid to pastors is $694, ,925; to foreign mis- sions, $93,O62, and to home missions, $23,- 102.
 The assembly then took recess to 8 D. m.
 At D. m. an exciting discussion on the assembly's home and school at Freder- icksburg, Va., was begun, which con stunned the entire afternoon. It was final ly decided to approve the management of the school and commend it heartily to the people of the church. The discussion was all on the point as to whether 1t was a Presbyterian principle to enter into a contract with the city of Fredericksburg whereby, in consideration of $10,000, the school establishes ten perpetual scholar ships. The whole question of state aid to the church was ably and fully dis cussed, and the assembly finally decided by about a two-thirds vote that the school had not violated any of the prin- ciples of the church in making the con- tract. The discussion was heated at times.
 A splendid speech was made by Dr. Woodrow in opposition to the report and strong sentiment at one time prevailed against it.
 The assembly adjourned at 6 p. m. to meet at o'clock tomorrow morning.

THE PEYTON KINSHIP
REALISTIC STORY OF THE WAR BY FILL
MORE PEARSON


During the early winter of 1864, on a
chilly, lowering day, in one Of the main
streets of Petersburg, Va, stood rough,
ragged, wretched, desperate looking
crowd of men, who naturally drew the
attention of passersby, many of them
well dressed women. They were prison
ers who had been confined in Castle
Thunder, near the more notorious Libby
prison, in Richmond, and were on their
way to Salisbury, N. c., where rascals
generally and dangerous characters
were sent as to kind Of military peni-
Tertiary. They were, indeed, a sorry lot,
made up of deserters, thieves, maraud-
ers, ruffians, the riffraff of both armies,
without patriotism or principle of any
kind, who sought war as a cover for
their iniquities.
Some of them were handcuffed, and
some wore balls and chains, to prevent
their escape, as they were evidently ac-
counted desperadoes. One of these did
not look the character at all. He had d
noticeable face, distinguished, if not
handsome, brown hair, gray, luminous
eyes, harmonious features and a decid
ed air. He was slender, rather tall, vel
knit, apparently about 25. How did he
happen to be in such company? He GER
tainly could not be vulgar criminal
Had he not got among those scoundrel'
by mistake? But, see, he was hand
cuffed Who was he and what had he
done?
Such questions and comments passed
from lip to lip as the throng in the
street swept by. The contrast between
him and his mates forced itself on ev
