John Hubbard Has in His Pos session Papers Once Stored in Old Court House. Some gentlemen were discussing the European war tho other da/, when the question "When will the war cease?" caine up. Oho gentleman went on to say that from what he could leam from tho newspapers and magazines within the past three weeks, he was very hopeful of an early peace; that he had noticed several articles in dif ferent papara and magazines lately which emphasized the fact that the money of tho nations at war was all below par, and steadily falling. He stated that he Lad seen from tho pa per that the English pound was down to tour dollars and fifty cents, and tho German mark was away below par; in fact, all the money of each waning nation was anywhere from ten to'thlrty fivb cents below par, and Chat if something wasn't done to bol ster up the money, ?orne one or moro ot these warring nations would be forced to suspend hostilities, simply for lack of funds. Mr. John Hubbard, being asked his views upon the subject, stated: "Well, i was a small boy during the Civil war, but yet old enough to gain con siderable knowledge of the events of (hat time; and' I remember distinct ly that about five or six months be fore tho Avar closed I could buy Con federate dollars for five cents in sil ver. My father had given me small plecos of. silver from tune to time which I had saved, and when I found that I could buy Confederate dollars for fivo cents I got out my nickels md dimes and bought these dollar:?, think inf. 4 hot I would , make a lot of money. Along about this same timo that ls about five or six months, and surely not over eight months boforo the war closed, my father bought Con redararte bonds tor gold United States money at ridiculously low prlcoe, thinking that he was serving his cause, and at the same time, if the '.Con Federate cause won out he would -lake considerable mon?y, but alas, the war closed soon after, and these Confederate bonds and money were worth nothing except as souvenirs of t grand abd gi or loe s cause. 1 f?llv igree with you, I believe that tho end >f this terrible slaughter is near at land, Judging, from the awful decline .n the price of money, of these war ring nations." Very few people, no loubt, know of the very Interesting ilstorlcal documents that Mr. Hub bard has in bis possession. ' Among rth?rs, ho, has several muster rolls o." the Confedratt' army, showing thc lames, companion and regiments, sad commands of a great lot of soldiers n/ho were absent from their command without leave. .Th? manner in which Mr. Hubbard esme into posse^ieD >f these papers is rather strange, ii ippeors that when Sherman was ea ?oute to Charleston *be records sad capers of tho Confederacy were mov >d ?rom there to Macon, Ga., and An ta??n, snd those brought here were rtored in the old mint on University rim until that building wss torn lown, and .then these traper*, were nicked away tn the attic ot the old Sonrt houte and when it was tom town to make way for the present tande?me structure these papers were ktber.-.thrown away, or destroy od. Mr. hubbard states that he found those pavera wfeich he uow baa, blowing tround the streets. W EEK IS :k es PF 10c a DR.
