RELICS GIVEN THE STATE. Presented by Col. Blnndlng of Mexican War Fame.?Palmetto Regiment'* Flag and tbe Beantlful Jack?on Yase Also Come to Columbia.? Gov. JlcSweeney'd Graceful Reply. The following letter from Col. J. D. Blandlng, tbe distinguished Mexican war veteran, was received by Gov. McSweeney some days ago. It tells ofgllts of incalculable value to be made to tbe State and contains history that every South Carolinian is proud of. Here is Co), ^landing's letter: To His Excellency. Gov. M. B. McSweeney. Dear Sir: In accordance with tbe resolution of the Palmetto Kesimeut (Mexican war) survivor*' association, as president of tbe association, 1 liave the honor of turning over in perpetuo to the Slate of South Carolina, through you as governor, one of the two tings carried by tbe regiment in that war, together with the regimental records. It is only necessary to state as to tbe latter that they are very imperfect, tbe general order book and most of the loose pupers having been sent to and lost Id Chester during Sherman's marcb through tbe Stale in IMm. Tbe flag Is tbe United States army regulation flag presented by Gen. Wm. O. Butler, then in command of tbe army in the early part of 18JS, to the regis ment when detailed as guaru ui mo um.>uu<.. palace and archives. My recollection Is that Gen. Scott had ordered this flag made, on account of ttie tattered and torn condition of the State flag which was worked by the ladles of Charleston and presented through the city council (T. L. Hutchiuson, mayor) in December, 1816, to the regiment, and by it carried [In the hands of F. YV. selleck of Abbeville] into the city of Mexico on 14th Sept., 1S-17. Besides the skirmishes around Vera Cruz on the routes to the valley of the city, it passed through the battles of Contreras, Cherubusco, Chapultepec and Uarita de Belen, and there on 13th Sept., 1817, at 1:30 p.m., the first flag planted on the walls of the city, four hours before Gen. Scott, with Gen. Worth's division of regulars, reached the Larlta Sau Cosmo. It may be casually staled that two commissioned and three non-commissioned officers were shot down while carrying it-two mortal ]y. The commanding general directed Majoi (afterwards colonel) Gladden not to use iht State flag but to encase and carry it back to the Stale as a sacred relic. Soon after the return of the regimeni boih flags were turned over to the State and kept In a glass case 1l the State bouse. When Sherman first ap proacbed Columbia, Capt. W. .B. Stanley, ther president of the Palmetto Regiment Survivors association, sent both flags to Thomas J MoKay (ai private of Co. F.) at Chester. Aftei matters settled down ihe regulation flag waf returned to Capt. Stanley, but be was uevei informed what became oi the State flag. He offered a liberal reward lor its return, and now, unit sectional passions have subsided and a returning sense of propriety anc1 comity seems to be actuating both sides, J have also oflered a reward for its return t< the governor oi South Carolina in hope6 tha it may be brought to light and deposited wit! its companion among the flags of worth o the civil and Spanish wars now in keeping o the State. It may be Interesting also to state as a mat U tha rosnlollnn llap WMi ler ui uieuuij luai iuu ?vbw..M?.wu ?? ? loaned by the executive committee to tbi First battalion South Carolina Infantry (Lieut. Col. Thompson) organized for tin Spanish war, wblcb afterwards.became par of tbe Second South Carolina regiment in< fan try (Col. Wilie Jones), and was by thi latter carried to Cuba. Upon the muster oui of the regiment it was returned to tbe com inlttee with the accompanying powder bai taken from Morro Castle. It Is probably the only flag in the United States whloh has beer unlurleu In the capitola of the only two lor eiga countries Invaded by the United States The executive committee of the Survivors association also request that they be allowec to place the "Jackson vase" In tbe legislative library under a glass case, and under care o the secretary of state or of the librarian, ai you may direct. The reasons for this request are that the committee have no proper depository for It and that all "survivors" may Know at leas! where It Is, no that tbe "last, survivor," t< whom It will ultimately belong, may prov< his claim (how and before whom I cannot gue86) and lake possession for himself. The clause ol the will of Gen. Andrew Jackson In refereuce to the vase Is In the following words: "The gold box presented to me by the corpo ration of the city of New York, the large sliver vase presented to me by the ladles o Charleston, S. C., my native State, with the large pictures representing the unfurling o the American banner, Diesentea 10 me oj tbe citizens ol South Carolina when It waf refused to be accepted by the United States senate, I leave ia trust to my son A. Jackson Jr., with directions that should our bappy country not be blessed with peace, an evenl not always to be expected, be will at the end of the conillct present each of the said articles of inestimable value to that patriot residing in the city or State from whlcb they were presented who shall be adjudged by bis fellow countrymen, or the ladles, to have been tbe most valiant in tbe defense of hie country and our country's rights." In the fallofl$4S A. Jackson, Jr., executor sent the vase to the governor of South Carolina with the request to dispose of It according to tbe terms of the will of his testator, The governor reported that it was Impracticable to obtain a decision what patriot of the State was "the most valiant In the defense of bis country and our country'i rights." The executor authorized him tc deliver it to the survivors of the Palmettc regiment (Mexican war) to be disposed by them as they thought best. Under tbe governor's call a majority of the survivors met in Columbia, S. C., organized tbe "PalmetU liegiment Survivors' association" and elected Wm. H. Stanley president. Tbe governoi delivered tbe vase to the association, which passed a resolution, to wit: that tbe vase bt kept by the executive committee for and t< be the property of the last survivor of th? regiment. Capt. Stanley died In 1802 and the under signed was elected president and exofflcK the personal custodian of tbe vase, flag anc records of the regiment. It has been customary to carry the vase t< the meetings of the National Association o .Mexican Veterans whenever requested t< do so. It has been carried to Washington I). C.. Charleston. S. C., Atlanta, Ga., an< Nashville,'fenn., and I hope will be currlet by some survivor (not mygell) to New Or Jeans, February, 1910. i shall deposit in the vase, for safe keeplni and future reference, a certified copy of ex tract from will of Gen. Jackson, and severa comnuii)ications relative to It, Including thi semi-official correspondence, also a list of th present survivors of the regiment (nov numbering about 40) . with their respectlvi companies and pdstotflces: and that they ma; know of the present disposition of tho vas' (which in all probability will continue unti the last survivor shall establish his persona claim), 1 will, with your permission, mak public this letter and your answer. I wll only add that, though having many descend ents, 1 hereby give my contingent right o property In the vase by reason of "las survivorship," to "South Carolina, my natlvi State," and this letter may be taken as con elusive evidence of such gift. Very respectfully yours, etc., James D. islanding. Pres. Pal. Keg., Surv. Asu'n. Sumtfer, S. C., April 9, J?o<). On receiving your asseut to tho request above made, I will carryover and deliver It person the article specified. * : JUV V V W > the very Lowest Possibl [ Boys' Clo ;y ends and ours begin wli every visit fn m you a pe: Ea.ll GOV. MCSWEENEY'SlLETTKB. Gov. McBweeney promptly wrote Col. Blandlng the following letter: Columbia, April 11.1900.' Col. J. D. Blandlng, Suniter, S. C. Dear Sir : It gives me great pleasure to acknowledge receipt of your esteemed favor of the 9th, turning over to the State In perpetuity one of the flags carried by the Palmetto regl* ment In the war with Mexico. I shall see that It is placed In tbe archives reserved for such historic relics; and, together with tbe interesting history which your letter gives of this tattered and worn banner, have them put in such position tbat they may stand as a' memorial to tbe valor and heroism of the sons 01 Carolina who followed this flag to victory iu so mauy hard fougbt battles of the Mexican war; and also as a constan d reminder to those who enjoy the same birthright, "tbat truth, courage and patriotism endure forever." The regiment tbat bore thlp flag won honor and distinction, in every battle, for tbe | American army in its march from Vera Cruz to tbe City of Mexico, and In this they were but "true to tbe Instincts of their birth." It was this regiment tbat led tbe charge against the oompact front of the enemy when other regiments bad been called upon by Geb. .Shields and declined to volunteer on account or t he dangerous and hazardous undertaking. Wben Col. Butler was asked lf^his regiment was willing to clinch the victory, his prouibt and characteristic reply was, "Yes, every man of them, and to the .death." Tbey fell upon the enemy like a tornado and the victory was won. We honor ourselves In honoring the braverv and patriotism of the noble sons of Carolina who followed thiB banner. But few of tbe members of this noble band survive, and they are scattered wide; but, wherever tbey may be, it should be a pleasing thought to them to know that tbey and their comrades who .have already answered the final roil call add beard the last tattoo, are held in such loving remembranoe by the sons and daughters of tbeir native Slate. My prayer Is that tbose of this grand old regiment wbo still survive may bave, in tbelr declin log years, tbe benedictions of a kind and teDder Providence, aa tbey bave tbe bearty good will of every true and patriotic citizen of the State. ' It is also with pleasure that I give permission, in behalf of the State, to place the ' ' Jackson vase" in tbe legislative library, and i it shall be properly cared for and disposed of asdirected by tbe Survivors' association. I ' .im sure I voice tbe sentiment of the people of ! South Carolina when I express to yon my > appreciation' of the generous and patriotic ; spirit which prompts you to give your continI ijent right of property in tbe vase by reason i of '-last survlvor-shlp" to South Carolina, your native State, which you bave served so i long and so well and so honorably, wbether in war or in peace. This bag and tbe records of tbe regiment r and tbe vasa shall be properly cared for and > as you direct as president of tbe Survivors', ' association. I bave tbe honor to remain.

BeP.-Peter Stokes and his bride came In Friday on the 5:25 p. m. train. They at onoe went to the well appointed home of J-T. Latimer, where a splendid supper bad been prepared fortbem. After It was over the bridal couple, accompanied by a lew friends, came to the parsonage. Tnls, their future ^~ "? looHt for ft Lime, bad been taken | UUU1U, ?u ? ? . charge of by the good ladles of the Methodist, church, nad been beautified and adorned* refurnished and repainted, till the "old things had passed away, and all things become new," and It was prouonnced by judges to- be one of the best fitted up homes to be found. We congratulate, most heartily, our preacher, In his good fortune. In securing one, so well fitted In every particular, for a life companion, and wish for them all of the good things given to mortals. Presiding Elder Rev. R. A. Child came In Friday evening, and Rev. T. S. Blackman, of the Shlloh Circuit, met blm here and carried him to his home near Shlloh church, wherg be preached the next day at 11:30 a. m? after which the quarterly conference was held. Mr. E. F. Lallmer went over Saturday morning and brought the first mentioned over that evening and at 4 p. m. the second quarterly Tonference for this charge was held in the parsonage, as the ladles bad charge of the church preparing it for Easter, the next day. They, the ladles, deserve a great deal of credit for the decorations displayed. Material for the proper arrangement of which were exceedingly limited. The backward spring has caused flora's kingdom to be but poorly supplied with, at this date, her usual beautiful and .fragrant open air subjects. In and around the chancel evergreens were a predominant feature. All harmonized and was quite attractive. Nolhlng more need be said descriptive of the decoration, when it Is known that the ladles of charge were Mrs. T. Baker, Mrs. J. T. Latimer, Mrs. Bettle Kennedy. Mrs. A. F. Moorhead, Miss Jennie Harper, Miss Nannie Johnson and Miss Llllie Huckabee. Potted flowers were brought out from their winter quarters and played an Important part In giving finishing touches to their well arrrfneed evergreen companions In lending to tbe'surroundlngs a moat attractive appearance. ground and lofty tumbling Mr. Bolln Allen'iflve-weeks old colt took a loity, or rather deep tumble a few days ago. It fell Into the Brook's gully, and everyone who has been here, for even a few days, knows something of It. It is about as big across and down as suob waterways ever get to be in tbis country. The colt had to he driven down the gully for some distance and there the bank was fo steep that it required the united efforts of four men to push It to the top, and strange to cay, that with such au adventure It was not hurt by even a soratch. Our doctors have been quite busy for some time. Many of our people have had the need of /a physician on acoouat of the grippe. Nearly all of us have had one. and some two attacks. None serious, A report reached us a few days ngo that a darkey near Latimer had the smallpox. But a later one shows that somebody was "worse scaled than hurt." The property of Mr. A. Z. Bowman, deceased, was appraised Friday. It was valued at nearly ?5,000. frost and snow. Yesterday was the fifty-first anniversary of a memorable day In this country. The 14th of April, 1819, was a warm day. The people some time before had been wearing summer clothing. Sunday morning it waR a little cooler, though not much, but turned rapidly colder, and before 11 a. m. It was snowing beautifully, which was nearly all gone before night. For five successive mornings there were very heavy frosts, which caused many of the planters to have to plant over their entire cotton crops. . Mrs. Hallie Nance, ofJ)ua West, and Mrs. Will Sherwood, of Morawrllle, having been on a visit to kinspeople on Little River, passed through here. Friday, on the way to their respective homes. "fine sermon" to a "hood crowd." . j Kev. R. A. Child occupied the pulpit ln.tbfr Methodist church at 11:30 a. m., and gave to tils large congregation a 11 tie sermon Irom^be passage of scripture takeu from tbeJUnit chapter of Revelation, and the 19th verse^JJ., "1 uin He that llweth, aud was dead; fttad^pehold, I am alive for evermore. Amen; and have the key of hell and of death." Itwlllve readily seen that it was a fruitful theme, One well suited for the event, which called forth the celebration of yesterday. By the Bame at 8 p. m. was given a stirrlDg sermon to a good crowd. IT the OrniiifhurK Times and Demo, crat Could Write Poetry. Times and Demount* If we could write sooh beautiful proee poems as A.
