The Third Regiment of South Carolina Volunteers went into camp at Anderson last week. There were 632 officers and men in the regiment who were prosont and participated in the drills and parades. There woro also present Com pany E, 10th Infantry, U. S. A., Capt. W. C. Bennett commanding. The suc cess of tho encampment was also aided by Capt. Leo F. Foster, Artillery Corps, U. S. A. So that all told there were about soven hundred soldiors in Ander son for a week. The oamp grounds were admirably located, and the soldiers were delighted with their surroundings. The citizens of Anderson mado tho soldier boys feel at home, as indeed they did all the visitors during her gala wook. The hospitality of our neighbor is pro verbial, but on tins occasion it must have taken a wider range, and havo boen more constantly exemplified than ever before. It oortainly was manifested with marked unanimity and constancy from dist to last. The soldiors were also on their good behavior and paid close atten tion to the discharge of their many ex acting military duties. With thom it was not all fun, but work, work, work from early morn to dewy evo, as only army mon can work. But they greatly enjoyed it, and many who woro only raw recruits on Monday were well drilled sol diors on Saturday. Tho roview of tho regiment by the Governor and his staff on Friday morn ing was a brilliant affair. After tho regiment had boon formed tho Governor and his staff passed around tho body at gallop, Adjutant Gonoral Frost and his staff aud Col. Sohaohto and his staff following. It was an imposing and inspiring spectacle, and was witnessed by several thousand persons who woro mussed on tho four sides of tho parade grounds. Af tor the review tho line of march was takon up and proceeded through West Market st reef to Main st reel, thou up Main street to tho public square and around and down Main stroot, whore tho parado was disbanded and tho troops procoodod back to camp. Govornor Hoyward complimontod tho appearance of tho regiment most highly, complimented Colonel Sohachte and his officers, and thou wont out into the campground and complimented the men. "Yours is a splendid regiment," ho said, "and tho appoaranco you mado has dono tho state, whoso arms you boar, a great doal of honor. You have evory right to feel proud, and I con gratulate you." Adjutant Gonoral Frost was particu larly nattering: "It has boon magni ficent," ho said. "I am delighted with tho appearances, tho expression of the mon of tho regi mont. They aroa lino set of fellows." Anderson is certainly to bo congratu lated on having thom, and, furthormoro, tho regiment is to bo congratulated on having oncampod in Anderson. It has boon a splendid success from start to finish and everybody is happy over it. Tho parado consisted of four battal ions, (bree regular battalions of tho regiment, commanded by tho respootivo officers, and a special battalion composed of Company E, 10th infantry, U. S. A., and tho Anderson Hilles, tho battalion being commanded by Captain Kennett, of Company E. This battalion was formed as an escort, and lcd tho march at tho special request of Colonel Schachte. At regimental headquarters Friday afternoon a delightful champagne punch rocoption was tendered by Colonel Schachte and staff to Govornor Hoyward and staff, tho special committee from thc Chamber of Commorco in chargo of this encampment, and to Mayor Sullivan and his board of aldermen. An elegant rocoption was tondored Govenor Hoyward and his staff, and (.'olonel Schachto and his staff Friday night at tho Cbiquola Hotel, by tho citi zens of Anderson. * . . Saturday morning tho tents woro folded, and Camp FroBt passed into his tory. Thus ended one of tho most suc cessful encampments tho State has over soon. * * s .

Mor*-Tb* Regiment's Splendid Record. r Anderson Mall, August 8.1 Th* annual reunion ot th* aurvlvor* of I Orr's Regiment, Confederate State* Army, In the Court House yesterday, wa? a somewhat different reunion from other reunions that have been held, but all the member? of the regiment who were seen I yesterday say it wa? one of th? moat en-1 Joyabhi gatherings of the survivors of that famous command that has ever been | hold. The feature of the day wa? th? address to the survivors by Governor Heyward, and it was a magnificent one. The Gov ernor is a splendid speaker on ordinary | occasions, but he surpassed himself yes terday. It is a matter of extreme regret I that even a synopsis of his apeeeh oanuot j be attempted for want of apace. The Governor said ho had had the pleasure of reviewing and observing three bodies of soldier? during the day a company from the regular army, a regiment of the State troops of the pres ent generation and the survivors of a famous regiment of the Lost Cause. The tribute the Governor paid to the veterana was a glowing and an earnest one, and at the same time he pointed out that the war is over and that the atten tion of "theee reunited States" is now turning io the future. "There is talk of the Kew South," he said, "but this Kew South bas been made by the men who fought for what some of us call the Old South. They carno home from the war broken in heart and purse, but they pluoked up fresh courage and went to work and rebuilt tho country. We younger mon are enjoying the fruits of | their work." ( The frequency with whioh the Gover nor's remarks were interrupted with ap-1 plause showed how heartily his senti ments wore endorsed, and showed hi* ] personal popularity as well. Tho Governor oloaed his apeeeh with an eloquent suggestion for contributions for the fund for the ereotion of the monument to Wade Hampton, and of the mention of the name there was thundor of oheors. - The name and I glory of South Carolina's leader has not | beon forgotten by the survivors of Orr'f regiment, or by the groat crowd of out Hider? who were in the Court House! during the time the Governor was speak ing. The meeting was presided over by ' General R R. Hemphill, of Abbeville, President of the Survivors' Association. Addresses of welcomo were made by ! lion. J. M. Sullivan, Mayor of the oity, and by Hon. G. F. Tolly, a former mayor and the present commander of Camp Stephen D. Lee, U. C. V. These wero responded to by Gen. Hemphill on behalf of the Survivors' Assooiation. Following tho Governor's speooh were | briof romarks by Col. J. L. Orr and Gen. M. L. Bonham, and a very interesting apseoh by Col. J. N. Brown, who dealt largoly with a numbor of reminiscences of the campaign in whioh tho regiment | was ongagod. After tho speaking a brief business ! session was bold, at which tho following j business was transacted: The following, by W. T. McGill, was adopted : Whereas, tho survivors of Orr's regi ment havo been meeting at sundry places in the sevoral counties in which the same j was made up and received with a hearty wolcomo whorever we met, thereby at testing the high esteem and respeot that our people hold us in for tho sacrifice of and service? we rendored in the Lost Cause; and, Wheroas through our committee we 1 have mado application to, and, as we thought, procured a mooting placo at Clemson Collego in conjunction with the Farmers' Instituto, which is soon to be convened, and fully ninety por cent of our fow comrades left to meet and cele brate those, our annual reunions, are farmors, and have proved our loyalty to our State and all her institutions and with pardonable prido felt that we would bo recoivod by many of the South Caro- j lina institutions with that welcome com mensurate to tho loyalty and sacrifice wo made during the four years of bitter strife between tho states, and besides hoing tax payers to support said institu tions, thereby supporting thom in times | of war and peace; therefore be it Resolved, first, That we disapprove of ? the action of the Chairman of tho Board of Trustoos of Clemson in refusing to allow us to moot at tho time and plaoe so near whore our services were dedi cated to our beloved State and tho Lost | Cause wo cherished and loved so muon. Resolvod, second, That l hese pream bles and resolutions be spread on our minuto book. Third, And that these resolutions be published in the surrounding county papers. ? This by T. A. McElroy was adopted with spirit and feeling: Resolvod, That tho hearty thanks of the Survivors' Association of Orr's Ki iles aro horoby tendered to the Cham ber of Commorce of the city of Ander son and to the city for their kindness, hospitality and liberality extended tc us. Resolved, That we shall ovor entertain for Anderson and her people profound respect and true affection. Genoral Hemphill submitted the fol lowiug interesting historical facts: At tho battlo of Gaines' Mill the regi- j mont carried 537 men into action. Of Diese 81 wore killed and 234 wounded, making a total loss of 315 men. During tho war 334 officers and men wore killed or died of wounds, 201 died sf disease and the total of deaths j ?mounted to 535. Wounded, but not mortally, there were 701 officors and mon and the total numbor of casualties n battle 1,125.
