a MATTER OF STATE HISTORY.

When one secs what other States
have done to preserve their local
records, it is quite mortifying to think
how little has been dono by South Car
olina. My friend, Capt. w. u. Courtc-
nay, has sent mo II "complctc roster" OF
the urst regiment that went out from
Connecticut to the Revolutionary war.
The pamphlet contains history of the
regiment, and the name Of every man
In the ten companies. That is tho way
Connecticut does these things, while
South Carolina has done nothing OF the
kind, except tho DcSnussuro list OF
officers. The present question now is
tho completion Of tho Confederate rolls
Although South Carolina sent out from
10000 to 10000 troops, and thousands Of
her gallant sons died for the State,
either through defective legislation or
bad management not even record of
their names has been made. 1t il high
time the rolls be finished and be given
general circulation. At present the
only sets OF rolls--of those prepared
are those in the hands of the State his
torinn, and this correspondent, when
tho records ought to be on file In every
library in the State.

CCBANS IN FIELD ACCEPT.
They Will Observe the Armistice
Thankful to America.

New York, Aug 49, Word
was received late tonight from the
Cubans in the field that they have
accepted the armistice and are no
longer fighting the Spaniards.
IL S Rubens, consul for the
Cuban delegation, said: "The
Cuhans may be depended upon to
cooperate with the Americans in
carrying out the statement of a
peace and stable government on
the island.
"The Cubans stand accused by
the Spanish as not being capable
of self-government and they feel
that it is question of dignity
and honor to disprove that false
hood to all the world. They have
no feelings but gratitude for the
timely and effective intervention
of the United States in their be-
half. They have full confidence
in the justice of the American
government and feel sure that
they, the true friends of republi-
can institutions, will not discrim.
mate against them in any way be-
cause of a pretended fear for the
safety of the island or because of
the calumnies of Spain. They
will assist the United States in
every way in their power to settle
any questions that may arise
and with the same order they
maintained when the principle was
independence or DEATH"

BLOCKADE IS LIFTED,
MERCHANTS MAY ENTER

Warship Which Will
80 Remain There.

washington, W Aug 12.-Cuba,
Porto Rico and Manila are TO he
no ioiger in state of blockade.
A pu'lic notification of this fact
havIns been made to all powers.
The vessels blockading these ports
are now withdrawn and it is now
possible for enterprising mer-
chants to enter the insular ports
and distribute food stuff at anv
price they see fit to charge. 1t
is expected that trade will be
lively IN short time.
No action is to be taken as vet
to feed the reconcentrados, but
this will come within short time.
if the investigation proves that
the supplies shipped into Havana
and other ports of Cuba are in
adequate to meet the needs of the
people. The president feels that
until the American forces take
final possession of Cuba, we
should go slowly in the matter OF
shipping supplies, unless it be
foand that the Spaniards them.
selves are in need.
Blanco will be consulted on this
subject. The American militar,
commission on evacuation vii
probably enter Havana harbor or
a warsh'p which will stay unit
t he nAtier is settled.
