LaFayetto and the Confederate Soldier, Editors Intelligencer: In 1824, nearly a century ago, when that knightly and chivalrous hero, LaFayetto, passed through this beautiful city, spring's balmiest and most radiant sunbeams had kissed into generous bloom the Howers of wintry March, and these first offerings of spring were laid by grateful hands in the carriage ? ways and streets, and in the dust, that tue foot of that gallant son of France should tread thiB rare and radiant path way of sweetest perfumo, and with the queenly roses there lay the lily flags, the "Fleur de Lis" of his own loved land, he won the affections of the stern-browed and iron-souled warriors of the Revolution, Thenceforth a halo of glory surrounded him and he was hailed by all the world as tho Apostle of Liberty! LaFayetto was received with open arms by the warm-hearted and chivalrous sons of South Carolina and was entertained in the large and commodious house on Gervais street so long occupied by Bishop Capers. Forty years after the great war be tween the States, 18G1 to I860, that knightly and Chivalrous gentleman, Gen. Wilie Jones; surrffested to that sterling veteran. Capt. W. D. Starling, the idea of strewing flowers, and the Reunion Committee, assisted by Prof. Dreher, on the afternoon of Wednes day, the 18th inst, like God's sweetest benediction, fell the gentle raf n from the heavens apon the gallant and bat tle scarred warriors of our great cause and upon the fair and dainty little children, whose wee hands had made of May's loveliest flowers a carpet from Lady Street to the State House. ?non this fragrant pathway of flowers they marched once again, clad in their suite of grey. Some of these were at Chan cellorsville where Stonewall Jackson took victory ont of Hooker's hand and carried it with him to his grave; somu were at Gettysburg, Shiloh, Chicka mauga and some with Hampton and Butler at Tro vii lian and Sapony Church and some with Mart Gary on the Chick ahominy, and some from 1st Manaeses to Bentonville. Oh, grand old patriots, who have so nobly fought and bled, though thy steps be feeble and slow and down the west life's sun is fast sotting, forever our hearts will live in tho memory of ?our white deeds of valor and your no ie brows we crown with the garlands of fadeless laurel and with the wreaths of deathless immortelles.

Erskine, which occurred at his home in thia city lost Thursday morn ing, lie had been sick two or three weekti, but his condition was not con fiidered serious untii a few days pre ceding bis death. The funerai ser vices were conducted in the First Presbyterian Church, of which he had been an exemplary member for more than li Itv years, last Saturday mottl ing by the pastor, Kev. S. J. Cartledge, after which the remains were interred in the Churchyard. Capt. Erskine waa born and reared in Hopewell Town ship, and had he lived until ti lat June next he wo aid have celebrated his ?2nd birthday. In April, 1851, ho mar ried Miss Margaret McAllister, who with two sona and two daughters, sur vives him. In the early spring of 1801 he moved to Alabama, and when the civil war commenced offered his ser vices to his adopted State, but on ac count of being very deaf he was re turned home- In the spring of 1804 he returned to Anderson County, and set tled near his old home, about four miles northeast of the city, where lie resided until until about two years ago, when he moved into tbe city.

Garrison narrowly escaped having his house burned Inst Saturday a. m. His wife had been oui for u couple of hours attending to her poul try and garden and when she returned to the house and opened her bedroom door, she discovered the bed on lire. With taro presence of mind she closed the door, so as to shut off the air, and ran for a. couple buckets of Water. After throwing on water sufficient to subdue the Hames, ehe caught up thu bed and everything on it in her arms and carried them out in the yurd and thus saved the house. Had she been a half hour later in discovering the fire, or if site had not neted so promptly und sensible the house would have no doubt been destroyed.
