WBIX?SIES'DAY, DXC. 30, 1896. Confederate Veterans. Addressed in the Interest of the Battle Abbey. NASHVILLE, Te OH., Dec. 27 -The following circular bas bee o presented to The Sun : Officers and Members of Camps of . United Confederate Veterans : Comrades-We have the honor to transmit to voa ?he enclosed address, issued by the executive committee : The board of trustees is determined . to carry to a successful finish the lauda ble purpose committed to its charge. The board has undertaken the rais tog of funds to duplicate and add to tbe munificent donation of Comrade Charles B. Rouss, of New York city, sod naturally applies to the organized camps of United Confederate Veterans for prompt pecuniary aassistance, that the endowment fund of the association . may be as great as possible, and be re ? ported to the next meeting of the United Confederate Veterans at their annual reunion in this city io May next. The board of trustees are early at work and are eodeavoring to push for? ward the raising of money, with the determination of securing the neces? sary fund to enable the erection of a suitable memorial building within which to preserve^ the archive records of southern valor and endurance, to? gether with the literature of the four years of unqualified hardships in the field and at home. Now is the time to act. Further delay may defeat tbe parp?se of the board, as time wiil scatter and destroy macy relics that the association desires to preserve. When it is remembered that every dollar -now raised will be covered with another, throogh the great liberality of Comrade Rouss, 'tis the commonest kind of plain business sense to meet him with the largest possible local cash donation, that this liberality may be made available and a memorial edifice erected to the heroism of the southern people. I* is suggested, and respectfully urged upon all division, brigade and camp commanders to provide for a money collection by every camp in tbe Uoited Confederate Veterans* organiza? tion on the 19th day of January, the birthday of Gen. Robert E. Lee, for tbe benefit of the association. Of course, it is not intended that ef? forts should be delayed until then, oj to cease after that time, but the object of this suggestion is to make that day a memorable one io the work which should enlist the deep interest cf every Confederate soldier, who, while accept? ing and upholding loyally the resalts of thc war, still loves and venerates the memory of hts comrades who died for the cause they loved so well. The superintendent and secretary will be ac'ively. in the field for the subscriptions ; therefore, for the pres? ent address him at Covington, Ky , and if absent, letters will be immediately forwarded and receive prompt attention. Very truly and fraternally, IV. D. Chipley, President. Jno. C. Underwood, Superintendent and Secretary, etc. The Law Recognizes Sunday. NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-Judge Pry or in the Supreme Court to day de? nied the application of the Agudath Hakekiloth, a Hebrew organization of New York, for a certificate of in? corporation. In refusing the certifi? cate Justice Pryor says : "In thc certificate submitted to me I observe that the annual meeting of the pro posed corporation is appointed to be held ou each and every second Sun day of January of each and every year. It is not a religious corpora? tion", and its aunual meetings are for the performance of precisely such 6ecular business as is transacted by other civil corporations The ques? tion is not whether such meetings are illegal, but whether they should be approved. The act intended is an aggression upon the Christain Sabbath, and the law which scrupu? lously protects them in their obser? vances of their creed gives them no license to affront the religious sus? ceptibilities of others." ---?<??-'?.. -- Sewing Machines and Organs cleaned and repaired at the Sumter Music House.
