SECOND REGIMENT.
1t Receives some Praise for the Court
esy of its OfIicers-SoldierIy Lot.

The march of the Second West
Virginia from Camp Meade to Get
tysburg was a constant ovation. At
Carlisle over 10000 people gathered
to see the boys on dress parade.
During their stay there they grew
into the friendship of the citizens
by excellent behavior, and the Car
Isle Sentinel says that while they
were not beautiful to look at they
were true soldiers all the same, and
presented fine appearance on the
field. No doubt part of this state
ment is serious blow to the vanity
of some of the officers of that regi-
ment, but this, from a Huntington
spectator, will probably prove some
balm for the wound. He says:
"While the scenes of the battlefield
were interesting beyond measure to
our visitors, the presence of West
Virginia's magnificent regiment was
by no means one of the least attrac-
tions to them. Like all the soldiers
the boys were not lacking in court
esy, but extended every kindness to
their civilian friends, and it is in
terms of loudest praise in which the
quartet Of visitors speak of the
Second regiment. From Colonel
Casteel down to the man with the
single stripe upon his sleeves, the
officers were universally kind and
courteous III their bearing, but they
were no more SO than the privates in
the ranks"

Short time will tell the Tale.
AS we GO to press this afternoon
the football teams of the University
and Westminster college are con
testing for supremacy on the South
Morgantown gridiron. The West
minister boys came in at noon and
they were met at the wharf by a
large crowd of students and town
people who wanted to get a look at
the first opponents that the local
boys have had to face this season.
They looked like they could play
the game and they are showing this
afternoon that they do not belle
their looks. They are giving the
boys tussle for their money but we
hope that we will be able to win the
game before the whistle blows to
cease playing.
The University boys were out for
a good practice yesterday afternoon.
They lined up several times and
had a good practice. They have the
signals down we'll and form their in
reference well. Fumbling which is
the bane of all teams in the begin
ming of a season is almost entirely
absent and they play like they had
been at it q long time as far as that
is concerned.
The only source OF fear is found
in the fact that they have not yet
lined up against strong team and
the practice that they have had in
this particular is very unsatisfacto-
~.
However the boys are individual
ly in fine condition and thev expect

and verdict of Presbytery, desire
herewith to say TO all concerned,
that the meaning and purport of
the report, brought in by them may
be expressed thus-and this is the
Interpretation which they put upon
it, and upon that part of it which is
in question: 1.-THE immortality
which said Rev. G. L. White ac-
cused himself-consisted in regis
tering one night at hotel in Pitts

ing night registering in the same
