A Goodly Gathering ia Charleston?What the Xewspaper >Ieu Did at Their Meeting. (From tlic 2*ews and Courier.) The thirteenth annual meeting of the Press Association was held at the armory of the Washington Light Infantry Thursday night. The attendance of members was not as large as it has been heretofore, owing to the fact that a good many of the members arrived on the late trains. The following members were found present, however, and the meeting was .called to order by the President, Col. M. B. McSweeney: Hampton Guardian, Col. M. B. McSweeney. Aiken Journal and Review, Mr. L. C. Ligon. Aiken Recorder, Col. C. E. R. Drayton. Florence Times, Col. C. H. Prince. Spartanburg Herald, Mr. W. M. Jones. Sumter Watchman and Southron, Mr. N. G.

C. Gar lington. Laurensviiie Herald, Col. T. B. Crews . Anderson Journal, Major A. S. Todd. Messrs. C. H. Prince and J. A. Morose were elected secretaries. The reading o: the minutes was, on motion of Ma jo: Melchers, dispensed with, and Mr. W. M Jones, the annual orator, was introduced and read an address on the subject of rail road discriminations. The address wa thoughtful, practical and to the point, anc was heartily applauded. At its close Capt. F. W. Dawson move* that the cordial thanks of the Associatio: be tendered to Mr. W. M. JoDes for hi eminently thoughtful and suggestive ad dress. It touches, he said, matters o: special importance to us at this time, fo' within the past few usys an instance ha; occurred showing that a certain railroai management had no more regard for thf interests of the people of the State ihan ? child would have for the puny ant-hills be neath his feet. He also expressed the hop* that the address would be placed at th< disposal of the Association for publication The matters it treated of should be brough to the attention of the people of the State. The 21ews and Courier, he said, would b( giaci 10 puunsn 11. The motion,' seconded by Col. C. S. R Drayton, was unanimously adopted, and the secretaries were directed to procure s copy of the address for publication in the JS'etcs and Courier. On motion of 3Ir. C. H. Prince, the address was also directed to be published in the minutes of the Association* The president then stated that he had received an invitation from the Neves and Caurier for the members of the Association to go on an excursion around the harbor to-day. The invitation was accepted and the arrangements announced. The president was also requested to convey the thanks of the Association to the "Washington Light Infantry for the use of the armory for the meeting. The Association then entered upon a dis cussion of matters of interest to the profession, the principal topics discussed* being the rates for foreign advertisements and the regulations of delinquent subscribers. The discussion was participated in by Messrs. Jones, McSweeney, Drayton, Dawson, Prince and others, and elicited a very full expression of the views and experiences of the members. The meeting, after hear u?v trea^uru. icpuxt reau x ?jr -jaujui Franz Melchers, took a recess until 9 o'clock Friday morning. The Association met at the armory of the Washington Light Infantry at 9 o'clock Friday. After the ejection of officers and finishing up the business, the members and their triends adjourned from the armory to the Ferry wharf, where they embarked on the steamer Pocosin, placed at their disposal by the Netzs and Courier Company. The visitors were taken up the < Ashely river to the new bridge, then down to Sumter, and afterwards* ran up the Cooper and Wanao rivers, getting a glance at the picturesque scenery on the banks of the Wando. The party landed in the city about 2 P. 31., allowing the members participating in the excursion to Xew Y.-rk abundant time to prepare for the trip. The editors sailed on the splendid steamship Seminole, of the Clyde Line, which sailed from Union wharf at 5.30 in the afternoon. The State Press Association met at nine ^ o'clock F:iday morning, President 3Icj Sweeney in the chair. The first question discussed was the selection of a place for the next meeting. ? Sir. Ligon suggested Greenville, Major Todd suggested Anderson, and Sir. Kutson suggested Charleston. After much discussion the three cities named were, on motion of Cant. Dawson, referred to the consider ation of the executive committee, with request to sclect the place and name the time for the next meeting. The election of officers for the ensuing year was was next held, Capt. F. Yr'. Dawson being called upon to preside in committee of the whole. The following officers were unanimously reelected: " President, Gen. 31. B. McSweeney, of the Hampton Guardian. First Vice President, Col. Charles Petty, of the Carolina Spartan. Second Vice President, Captain T. H. Clarke, of the Camden Journal,. Secretary. Major J. B. Bonner, of the \V/->c+ jlvuc it wou twvym wv. Treasurer, Major Franz Melchers, of the Deutsche Zeiiung. Chaplain; Rev. Sidi H. Brov.no, of the Christian Neighbor, The Association then adjourned subject to the call of the President Responding to the invitation extended to them by the ^Setcs and Courier, the members of the Association assembled on board the steamer Pocosln at 10.-13 for a pleasure trip around the harbor. The voy'nge was from the Ferry wharf round the Battery to the New Bridge, and thence to Fort Sumter and beyond. On the return, Sullivan's Island was skirted, Mount Pleasant touched, and thence up to the Wan do river, into Cooper and along the east water front home again. With a dozen cr so editors on a holiday, it goes without saying that a delightful trip was had, and such was the expression of ieeling by all on board. There was an abundance of refreshments of the quantity, quality and character suitable to the occasion, and therewith other lis? * ? interesting matters were frequently dis- j cussed witli a refreshing unanimity of j opinion. Upon the return of the steamer to the i city an impromptu meeting of the visitors ! was called on the forward deck with Gen-! eral McSweeney metaphorically in the j chair, ilr. W. M. Jones, of the Spartan- I burg Herald, thereupon offered the follow- ; ing resolution: Resolved, That the thanks of the Associa-: tion be returned 10 Cap?: F. W. Dawson, i of the News and Courier, for courtesies ex- i tended the Association during their visit to j Charleston, and especially for this delight- ; ful excursion around the harbor. The resolution was unanimously adopted. Capt. Dawson responded briefly to the resolution, saying that it must have been a delightful trip, indeed, if it had furnished the Association as much pleasure as it had given the Xecca and Courier- to entertain them during their brief stay in the city. r -3- ? o-f -p/vot* mirmtoc 1 nc party ius>t:iuu?u&.tu. ai a, itn : after 2 o'clock.

"I WANT THAT MAX." Reasons for Thinking Albert Sydney Johnston Was Killed by a Private. Chicago Inter-Ocean: As a general { role the most impartial personality that 11 ever got acquainted with is a bullet in ; battle. It is perfectly democratic and fair, recognizing neither rank, station, age nor quality. There are some exceptions to this rule, as, for instance, when a bullet is directly aimed at some conspicuous officer and fetches him. I think it was a special bullet that killed Albert Sydney Johnston, and the reason why I think so is this: In the Shiloh fight Pugh's brigade, to which I belonged, was strung along the rail fence, having the cotton field and peach orchard between it and the Confederate line. Across this field and orchard the enc-my made three or four magnificent charges, and was terribly rermlsed each time. Captain Johnston, j the son of the General, frankly acknowl| edges those defeats in his account of the j battle contained in the biography of his ; father. The repulses caused much demoralization in the ranks of the Confed erates, but after awhile we could see thai their line was re-established in greal shape. Then we saw the General riding down the front while the men cheerec nirn with a great deal of enthusiasm, We all supposed that Gcreral Beaure gard was in command of uie enemy, fo] General Johnston's name was not fa miliar to us and Eeauregard's was. Ai he passed along the line our boys said t< i each other: "That's Beauregard! That's Beaure ; gard!" Just at that moment a tail, gaunt fel . j low.ni a state of intense nervous excite i ment. and carrying his gun at th< ! "trail," tried to break through the lin< where I was, with the intention of climb . ing over the fence toward the enemy. challenged him sharply: "What do yoti want here? What regi ment do you belong to?" "Fifteenth Illinois." "Go back to your regiment; you havi * no business here. Go back!" "Oh d)n't stop me," he said. "Le 2 me go, I want that man on that horse.' Before I could prevent him he ha( broken through and scaled the fence. watched him zigzagging along from trei to tree until he reached the log hous* s above the centre of the field. Thi 1 brought very near the enemy, anc if he took a rest for his gun on the win 1 dow sill the man on horseback woulc 1 certainly be in peril. I never saw tha s soldier again, but tor twenty-five years - have held firmly to the opinion that hi * shot "that man on the horse." [ It is evident from the accounts tha ? General Johnston was wounded sever?. * minutes before he fell, but did not thin] ; the matter serious, even if he knew it a all. Ee had been slowly bleeding t< ? death for some time, and when^,t last h j faintca it was too late to save him. J. Sparkling Catav.-ba Springs. ' (Correspondence Charlotte Clironicle.)
