PjRESEBVE OUR HISTOK\. Th? Sooth has been gailty of a gr2?t neglect in not preserving ita history, aud the litne will c tine when the people of tbe Sontti will bj reproicbid for ll? shainefu' indifference to a glorious past. Tnat we nave a wonderful factory is admitted by tbe wcrid, bui much of iti detail is beiDg lost merely because no systematic effort is made to preserve it. Tbe appointment of HeudersoB and bis etaff by Lord Roberts, commanderin-chief of tbe British fo cj* in South Africa, jast because tbe form< r had written the life of/'Stonewall" Jackson serves to illustrate that the glory of the South has been recognized by tbe wcr'd, but there is much more that ought to be told of onr glory which can not bo done if we allow the data to perish. la this connection we have just read ihe Life of Genera! Nathan Bedford Forrest by Dr. Wyetb, a most ratable contiioution. It should ^ V.?? Ka?T A O VIAPU1 DC i CKU UJ CTCl J UUI uo . Wolsey, of the Britith army, cays, Forrest's life is like & romanc-N aud the sirne officer psys a magnifictnt tribute to tbis wonderful military genius of the South, vet there are thousands and thousands of Southern boj? who bav* scarcely heard of "the wizzird of the saddle." All in all fce wm the greatest product of the war p en either side. Bat what we especially desi ed to mention is the report of Col. Thomas to the Governor. Col. Thomas, al though no provis'.oa was made by the General Assembly for the prosecution of his work further than the complc 3> tion of the rolU, has kept his office open >nd continued the work on bis own respon?ibility. Toe psople of j^-" " the State are greatly indebted to him tor h;.? labor of love, and we hope that ome proTi?ou 'will be made to hare th* work cootiuafjd ani preserved. Col. Thomas compiaina that many of hi* rnqnirie* to those who oaght to ha.*e oeen iatereatel were never au#ereJ. H>wever he gives us much r; aable information a? to the part So ith Carolina toot in the war for 8?itbem [ndeDendence. The official v _ rec >rds show that contributed to the Co .federate aruile?, ennting infantry, ca"*iry and artiller7, 61,608, enrolled, 53 ^60 tflretire, although the voting at .ngth ot the State in 1860 was only $0,0d0, and besides there were 4.94 i offers and men cffactive for State ?ei 7ice Ik is hardly likely that any Southern State can surpass tLis record. gL.;:.;, BUCK LICK ITEMS.
