A? a merchant he acquired a j ;\ thorough kuowlcd-jc ol' business that | j, aided bim in the management of the j n historic regiment. His active life on ! 0 the farm gave him a sound aud vigo i ( rous constitution that enabled him to ! t .endure the hardships of military ser- t vice. ; o He was the son of Allen Miller, who lived near Due Wost, and was born August 2, 1K:{<). He had thc udvan- J s tagos of thc common schools of the j h ojj.utry aud at the ugo of IT years bc- ! v came a clerk in the store of Samuel | t .Mitchellat Lowndesvillc. Afterwards he came to Abbeville and engaged in merchandising as a member of thc firm of Wier & Miller, and continued in this business until the death of his j ^ father, when he returned home to look j ^ after thc plantation. j ile always took great interest in thc j (_ militia and was elected major of thc | s old regiment that once mustered ut Drake's old field, near donald's. At another time he was judge advocate under the old system. In 1800, when it became evident that South Carolina would secede, an organization of Minute Men was ef fected for immediate defence. The deceased joined thc company as a private, and went with it to Charles ton. Capt. James M. Perrin, a vete ran of the Mexican war, was in com mand of the company, which reached Charleston in time to assist in thc re duction of Fort Sumter. There being no longer a necessity for the presence of the Minute men around Charleston they were discharged and returned to their homes, except a sufficient num ber to make up several companies which went with Col. M?zoy Gregg to Virginia. The deceased came home and raised a company whioh was mustered in for "throe years or the war" at Sandy Springs, July 21, 1801. This com pany was first known as the Marshall Riflemen, named in honor of J. Foster Marshall, who won laurels on thc battlefields of Mexico, and when mus tered in became Company G, Orr's regiment of ri?es, the first body of troops enlisted in South Carolina '!for thc war." The Hon. James L. Orr was elected colonel, D. A. Ledbetter lieutenant colonel and J. W. Living ston major. Thc company of Capt. George Mc Duffie Miller was designated as Com pany G. and he was seventh in thc linc of captains. W. W. Higgins, a veteran of the Mexican war, who fell at 1-redcrickaburg, was first lieuten ant, H. M. Latimcr, who was mortally wounded at Gaines' Mill, was second lieutenant, and James Pratt, third lieutenant, was captain of the com pany when thc war ended. Tho en listed men came from about Due West and Donald's. They were handsome, intelligent aud patriotic. They made a glorious record and thc fact that a man was a member of Company G is until this day a passport to the conti denco and esteem of all survivors The company, when on parade, com pelled thc admiration of all spectators To give an idea of the appearance of Company G we will state that Charles ' A. Betta, who lives near this city, and is six feet and one inch in height, was the twenty-fourth man in line, or in other words there were in the company twenty three men taller than Mr. Betts. Number twenty-five was exactly thc same height. The members of thc company were sons of farmors, college boys, theological students and clerks. Soon they were like brothers, for they were animated by such love of country that they wore willing to lay down .their lives for the sacred cause. of independence. The men went, into the service when a bloody war was a certainty. They were not moved by momentary excitement or enthusiasm. They were thoughtful and earnest men who knew what was before them.

Capt. Iiller was wounded in thc breast and ii the heel so severely that he was Ot able for service until near the end f the campaign ol' lhiiU. Company ! showed the effect of Capt. Miller's raining in every battle in which it ook part during that memorable year f battles. At Fredericksburg it was specially conspicuous for its undaunt d firmness when thc regiment was urpriscd and thrown into confusion ecau.se Gen. Maxey Gregg gave a rrong order not to tire upon the enemy, hinking they were our own men. The egimcnt was swept away, but Com pany G formed on the 1st regiment nd held back the enemy. When Orr's Kiries word mustered in 'apt. Miller was seventh captain in he line of promotion. Col. Orr had csigned. Col. Marshall and Lieut, lol.. liCdbetter fell at thc battle of ccond Manassa> and J. W. Living ton became full colonel, .lames M. 'errin lieutenant colonel and J. J. ?orton major. Capt. Miles M. Nor oi), of Company 10, was killed at econd Manassas. Col. Livingston re igned on account of ill health and Iajor Norton on account of the loss f au arm, which incapacitated him or active service. Because of these nd other changes Capt. Miller rose o the rank of major by the beginning f thc Chancellorsville campaign. At he battle of Chancellorsville Col. ames M. 1'errin was killed. F. K. larrison became colonel and Major Iiller rose to the rank of lieutenant olonel, but was wounded and com elled to leave the front until he re overed. Col. F. Harrison left the egimcnt on account of a wound in the nee, which disabled him, and Lieut, lol. Miller had command of the regi ient until the close of the war. As eutenant colonel he lcd the regiment t the battle of the Wilderness and on be second day won imperishable onors. It was on thc morning of May ti, 864, that by a sudden attaok, directed y (?en. (?rant, Hill's corps was oubled baok until it seemed as if a real disaster, was upon us. Long treet was coming on thc field and our nc was pressed hurriedly to the rear y Grant's exultant troops. Every igitnent of McGowan's brigade was wept baok in confusion until Orr's lifies was struck and thc gallant regi ?ent stood immovable before the prions onslaught of thc er?my until rdercd to fall back. Thc face of thc arth seemed to be covered with the nemy. who swarmed across an open pace in our front. Col. Miller halted he regiment, and it was dressed in erfect alignment. Then he gave the rders, 'about face, guide centre, for ard march," and the regiment re ircd as if on parade, moving like lockwork, our flag waving in thc gen io breeze, the Southern Cross stand ig out in beautiful relief in the rays f thc morning sun. Col. Miller was n foot in his proper place, the p?e-? tire of a perfect soldier, and with his lagnificcnt regiment the objcot of dmiration for Gen. Robert E. Lee, ho came upon the field with Long Lrcet's corps and witnessed this glo ious and inspiring spectacle. He ent a staff officer to compliment Cel. Iiller and salute the colors of Orr's lilies. Gen. Kershaw, who was going tito the battle, was so thrilled with he warlike bearing of Col. Miller and is men that he also sent his compli ments and his staff officer took off his tat and bowed low over his horse's lock to our colors. Gen. Longstreet ollowed suit and we were all proud i Col. Miller and he was proud of bis nen. At Spottsylvania Col. Miller led he regiment into the "bloody angle" f the Horse Shoe Bend, and was in he hottest of tho battle until wounded nd compelled to leave the field. In he fall he returned to duty as full colon* i. for Col. Harrison lian re signed because of permanent disabil itv. In thc operations around Peters burg and on thc north .side cf James Uiver Col. Miller did noble and con stant service, for Iiis men had un bounded confidence in him. In the winter of Ihtil the Bellefield expedi tion was the severest service required of the regiment. Durin? the move ment we slept one night under thc same blanket with bim on thc banks of tiie N'otoway Uiver, and in thc morning found that several inches of snow had fallen upon US. On the return march tho roads were full of broken icc. A number of our men were barefooted and thc march was extremely painful to them. Col. Miller did everything possible for thc comfort of thc men, but the resources of the Confederate States were ex hausted and the soldiers passed the winter in rags and hunger, but as re solved as when they entered the ser vice. As a sergeant-major we. were always around regimental headquarters dur ing the winter of 1801-05. 1 ?ut few of thc gallant men who then .-at around thc camp lire with Col. .Miller aro now in the land of thc living. hr.

I nderwood, of Kentucky, ha- undertaken to present to thc Con federate mus?um at Richmond por traits of Confederate heroes to the value of .*:?0,000. At Charleston the last week he exhibited portraits of Lee. .Stonewall Jackson, Forrest. Guidon and Wade Hampton. He has set about thc work of collecting the fund of $50,000 with characteristic energy and enthusiasm, and he will not be a happy mau until that labor is accomplished. That he will suc ceed no one who knows the man doubts. It is prompted by sentiment. but a sentiment that ha- patriotism for its inspiration, a sentiment that ennobles human nature. In talking of his plans a few days ago, Mr. Underwood told me that he could give but four pictures of Vir ginians-Lee, Jackson. Johnson and Stuart. I urged him to add A. I*. Hill to the list. A. I*. Hill was thc last name pronounced hy Robert IC. Lee in delirium, just before death struck down the noblest character of profane history. A. 1'. Hill was the last name pronounced hy Stonewall Jackson in delirium just before death summoned that demigod to "'cross 0 ver thc river and rest under the shade of the trees." Both ordered that -upcrb commauder of that incompara ble infantry to advance. In death Lee and Jackson again fought their battles, and both summoned the Ney of the army to lead the attack. Kentucky will have three places Rreckinridge, Buckner ami Morgan and Kentucky will bc splendidly rep resented. Tennessee will be repre sented by Forrest and Bishop Polk. The portrait of Forrest represents him at thc head of his command, dis mounted and standing beside his horse. His ample overcoat is bespat tered with mud, and his long and heavy sabre is grasped in bis left hand. Thc countenance is stern, even fierce, and reminded inc of what I had read of John Graham, of Clavcrhouse. 1 urged Underwood to add the por trait of Isham G. Harris to thc Ten nessee contingent. He WSB thc great est of thc "War governors," North or South. Ile ought to have been the president of the Confederacy. Had he been at the head of the government at Richmond, history woa?d be a dif ferent story. Jefferson Davis was a great man; he had that greatest attri bute of a great mau-an attribute that was lacking in Marlborough and in Napoleon, in Richelieu and in Bis marck-a pronounced and exquisite sense of justice. Burke himself did not have a loftier hatred of tyranny than did Jefferson Davis. And in all the South Jefferson Davis was the most intensely Southern man. There was but one chance for the South, and that was a dictator in thc executive mansion at Riohmond. Davis would have preferred defeat, with his head thc stake, to a dictatorship, even with himself the autocrat. Not so with Harris. A greater Carnot, he would have created twice 14 armies and or ganized victory in every one of them. Mississippi Will be represented by President Davis, Stephen D. Lee and EdwardC. Walthall. Admiral Semmes, Bras ton and Jo seph Wheeler will represent Alabama? Longstreet and Gordon came from Georgia, and old Joe Brown might be added, for he was no slouch of a "war governor" himself. Wade Hampton and Kershaw are from South Carolina. The portrait of Hampton, already painted, is of full, life-size-and rep resents him standing in the full vigor of his youthful prime, the handsomest man of his day, in colonel's uniform, with that sword his grandfather cap tured from Lord Rawdon in the Revo lutionary war. The scabbard is tor toise shell, richly mounted in gold; the blade is a Toledo steel, as trusty as any of the proudest uncovered Spanish nobles wore on his thigh in the presence of his king or wielded in battle at St. Quentin or at Lepanto. But Wade Hampton is out of fashion in South Carolina now. Marion and Sumter, Haync and Pinckney, Cal houn and Lowndes, McDuffie and Preston, too, would be out of fashion in the old State now if they were in the flesh. I suppose Governor Vance and D. H. Hill will represent North Carolina? Beauregard and Dick Taylor will come from Louisiana. From the trans Mississippi we have "Pap" Price of Missouri and Pat Cleburn of Arkan sas. Albert Sidney Johnson will stand for Texas. There are too bat tles I have never been able to read of. I have started a soore of time to read Victor Hugo's matchless description of Waterloo.

Kansas has suffered in years past from an over-production of grasshop pers and populists. It is now aHlicted, it appears, with a surplusage ol' dogs, lt is long on dogs, but short on sheep. The secretary of the Kansas State Agricultural Society deplores this fact in u recent report. ?le show? that there are but 200,000 sheep in the State, while the number of dogs is 170,000. Two years ago the sheep outnumbered thc dogs by "!0 per cent, while last year this percentage was reduced to 17. In one county there were 000 dogs to each sheep, and in twelve selected counties there were 200 dogs to each sheep. If a similar investigation were made in other States we doubt not that some of them would show an equal dispropor tion of dogs and sheep. But it is not a good sign anywhere. Prosperity for the farmer does not lie along the way of an increase in the dog crop.-Les lie s Weekly. - No one may marry more than five times in Russia, and after reaching the age of 80 the gay and festive wid ower and the frolicsome widow are barred by the statute of limitations. Body building, as they understood it in Greece and Rome, seems a lost art. Young men flat chested, flabby muscled, slouch along the streets, with scarcely one physical attrib ute of manhood. And yet these young men would like to be well muscled, sup ple, erect and hardy, lut they don't know how to go about it. They try dumb bells, rowing and boxing-, but only in a half hearted way. These I sports should be play to them but are real ly work. The main factor in this condi tion is an ill nour ished body. The stomach is not work ing properly. The digestive and nuUViive organs arg ?tot in active health. The result is that the nu trition for the body is not distributed in proper proportions to make blood, bone and muscle. Weak young men who take a course of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will find a marked change in their phys ical strength and energy. The body will be built up so that gymnastics will not tax and tire them, but be the natural exercise enjoyed by muscles, which are nourished into firm health. In a letter received from A. D.
