James N. Lipscomib was called to the chair, arid P. E. Porchter appointed Secreary. The chairman briefly, but eloqently explained the object of the meeting. wh ereutpon Lieum. Laborde in troduced the following Preamble and Res lu ions, which were unanimously adopted. We, the members of the Cadet Corps of the South Carolina College, have re ceived with no ordinary emotions, the inteligetnce of the recent glorious, but bloody victories of the American arms, tear the City of Mexico. While partici pating in the general feeling of the country and mingling our votce with that of the whole hand, we feel that we have a special interest, w-hen we remember that some of the gallant men who were foremost in bat ale, but very recently wvere members of this company, and allied to us by all thme ties of a common interest an ardent affee tion. While it is a matter of exultation that they did their duty most nobly, and have thus contributed to the honor and glory of our, beloved State, we have to mourn the death of the chivalrous Lieut. Adams, so recently at officer among us, who nobly fell on the bloody field of Chu u busco,whbile proudly bearing the colors of his company amid the storm oflbanie. But we are ntot without high consolation when we contemplate the manner of his death. To die for one's counry, has always been the aspiration of noble, and elevated mintd; and the martyred hero has ever been re garded as worthy of contsecration in thme affectiotn of posterity. Otur lamented friend sleeps in the bed or the soldier, and we trust has won for himself imperishable'glo Therefore, Resolved, That we will cher tsht with pride andl affection the renmetm branee of the hight honor, the 'gallant bearing and many virtues of Lieut, David Adams, and' that we tender to his ailicted relatives the tribute of unaffected sorrow. 2 Resohld That in fttrther testimony of our regard, we will wear ahe usual badge af mourning for thirty days. 3 Resolved, Trhat the E.'dtrors of the Columbia, Edgefield,- and Hamburg p pers be requested to pulisht the above pr ~eeditgs, atnd that a copy of the same be rwirded to thme t-elatives of the3 decoased.

WVe start right oil'." Palmello Regiment.-T ruly this regi ment mayhbecalled thce devoted. It wilt be recollected that itt the battles of the 18th and 19th August. their whole field force was about 275 men-so thiinted down had they been by sickness and death. In those battles they had nearly tie half killed and -wounded-leaving about 140 unharmed and fit for dutj.- it is true that many of those slightly wounded may have resumed their places in the ranks, and on the other hand some may have since become discharged by sickness and other contingencies. Say that their field1 strength in the battles at the taking of the city of Mexico ranged from 140 to 200; it could hardly have exceeded thte latter number. Now Mr. IKendall's rep)ort of their loss (which is doubtless correct,) makes ic 16 killed antd 83 . wvounded-n aggregate of 99 out of 200- at the outside. No bet ter shoaking thanr this, in the way of fighting, has been made by any regi ment during tho war.
