A GREAT MUSICAL EVENT.

In presenting Professor Jackson
and his augmented chorus from
Western University and Allen
Chapel in the Oratorio, 1.-THE Seven
Last Words of Christ the Senior
and Junior Board of Ushers cou'd
not have struck upon a happier
idea to bring to Allen Chapel the
the year. The singers represent IN
the largest sense the superior tai
ent of the race in these western
parts; many of the voices helped
to make famous that Conference
Chorus" a few years back which
revealed such splendid work be-
fore the August body of Bishops:

Jackson is known to impose the
most difficult interpretations on
her with supreme confidence in her

a product Of w. U. and a finished
student under the matchless teach

this affair and indications point to
a crowded house; there will prob
ably be fifteen hundred people to
hear this wonderful singing.

SECOND nApTIsr cAuRcA.

An unusual amount of interest has
been displayed by the B. Y. P. u.
the last few Sundays The Bacote
Literary society held-a very profitable
session last Thursday night. At the
meeting of the Leisure Hour club,
under the supervision of Mrs. Cor
rine Lester, which met last Tuesday
night at the home of Mrs. Tucker,
an excellent program was rendered.
During DR.. Bacote's twentieth ami
versary services last Sunday it was
shown that he had not only raised the
church from $4,000 Indebtedness in
the basement to a magnificent edifice
nov valued at 100000 and all paid,
but he has been instrumental in add
ing nearly 5000 souls to the church.

AS TO n U

Some comment has been made that
the Sun with its 5000 readers, pub
fishes the clubs notes at a rate of
50 for the season of ten months,
which is an average of 4 cents a
week, while the Club Bulletin, they
allege, charges 81 per month for each
club. Well, that's your business. If
You would rather pay 81 per month
than A cents a week, you've got a
right to, and it's nobody's business,

1t is said that he had recently told

Whereas, said oration has been
largely circulated as being Published
by the order of reunion, which
would lead to the supposition that it
cToiced the sentiments of the veterans,
if pc-sed without objection from us;
and
Whereas, t1is claim subjects US to
the charge of. being actuated by mer-
cenary motives, and not by the lofty
principles which brought forth the un-
paralleled sacrifice, devotion and
heroism of the Confederate soldiers
and sailors, therefore, be is resolved:
First, that the veterans of South
Carolina hereby declare that neither
they nor their comrades from the 9TH
er States Of the Confederacy fought
with the aim and object of preserving
slavery. We and they fought prima-
rily to maintain the principles of the
constitution and the government es-
tablished by our forefathers and sec
ondarily to defend our homes and loved
ones from ruthless invader.
Not an Original Issue.
Second, that they DO not believe
that the Union army fought to free
the slaves. The forcible emancipation
of the slaves was never contemplated
by the North nor the South previous
to the war And even when President
Lincoln illegally issued his emancipa-
ton proclamation, he disclaimed any
philanthropic object, and only justified
his unlawful act on the plea of its
being military measure
Third, that we heartily sympathize
with our comrades of the Missouri di-
vision, U. C. ", who first moved, and
with other divisions which have joined,
in repudiating the statement of Gen.
Wells, and will join them in any meas
ure to vindicate the Confederates from
the foul blot placed upon the noble,
patriotic motives which urged their
sublime devotion to duty and to their
country.
Fourth, that copies of this pre-
amble and these resolutions be sent
to the general commander, U. c. ",
to the division commander of the
Missouri division, U. C. V, and to
Gen. Wells"
