A CORREcTION.-In our report of
the proce'edings of the Legislature,
wvhich appeared in Saturday's issue,
we made the iistake of stating
that the House had passed over the
governor's veto tihe act known as
the "chain-gang bill." As a matter'
of fact, the veto was pronmptly and
handsomely sustained. The
Charleston Ne Tws and Cou1rier
states the objections to the bill as
follows:.
The objections to the bill are
that as to pel'sons already convicted
and under sentence, it is ex post
facto in character, and thait "any
able..bodied male prisoner flow
confined" in any jail, "except under
sentence of death," could be turned
over by any trial justice to the
county commissioners or mayor to
work in a chain gang, on the public
roads, for the term of his sentence,
We presume that a prosecuting wit~
ness, confined for inability, to give
bond for his appearance, might be
put in a chain~gang. So also could
a person guilty of simple assault.
These are objections of detail, and
we hope that it may be practicable
to frame a bill that will, in some
way, compel persons convicted of
infamous crimes to defray, by their
labor, the cost of their food and
clothing, The people cannot afford
to bear the whole expense of con
~nl8 ahd feeding tlie thousandp of

THITi OLD SLA:IT.
A Pl-man:n Gat Iari at Chestor--Ad
dreb6 by '7ereral Ilgatton-Preparing
for a Regimontal Ro-union.
The Chester .Reporter of last week
contains a full accouit of the Im"t,
ing of the Associationl Of survivors
of Companies A, F and I of the old
Sixth Regiment.
After the transaction of somo
routine business, the president,
Capt. Win. McAlilloy, introduced to
the Association Gen. Jno. Bratton,
who spoke as follows:
OLD CoMRADEs: I need not tell
you that I profoundly appreciate
this reception. I came here to-day,
to givo my mito of aid towards
forming an organization of the
survivors of the old Sixth Regiment.
I am happy to see that you have
already formed such an or ganiza- 1
tion, so far as Chester is concerned. I
I am glad to meet here so many of t
those who felt the elbow touch. j
The tie which links together mem- i
bers of any organization, even
under ordinary circumstances, is
one of peculiar force and strength ;
but to us who have felt it in scenes
of carnage, suffering and death, it
is indissoluble. It reaches to those
who now "rest under the shade of
the trees on the other side of the
river." Among those who rest
there, none has a more glorious list
than the "Old Sixth." But it is
not so much for its gallant (lead
that the old regiment has so bright
a record ; it is rather for what she
accomplished-always coming up to I
the mark of her duty, whether in
camp or in battle; for there is as
much heroism in preparing for
battle as in meeting its shock.
Three times this regiment was
called to the front, and three times
it proved itself the banner regiment
of the Army of Northern Virginia.
But I am not here to day to talk
of the enduranco and deeds of
daring of this grand old regiment.
I came to assist in collecting and
preserving the materials for its
history. On this history, carefully
and impartially made up, I am
willing to rest the reputation of
the regiment. Our duty to our
solves, to truth, to the cause for
which we fought, and lastly, our
sacred duty to our fallen comrades,
demands that we preser've a faithful
record of the sufferings and achieve
monts of dhe regiment. . Such a
record would exhibit as true
patriotism as over illustrated the
history of the world.
By tho rsel judgment of
mankind, is the test of
merit. TI r i of arms is no
Oxception. ;Li am1 ju.l-mnent
success i necessary to test the
merit of the cause. We failed.
Our dead have no country. Con
temrpt and aspersion will be heaped
uplonl themf. Their best vindication,
their most, worthy anti lasting
monument, is to be found in a wvell
sustained organization of the sur.
v'ivors of the vanquished cause.I
Hence I urge a speedy and thorough
comp1)1etion of this organization.
Goneral Brcatton 's address was
well received and frequently ap
ph uded.
The committee on statistic s sub.
mitted a report, after which an
opportunit.y was given for those
who desired, to become members of
the Association. Quite a number
came forward and were enrolled.
Liout. C. W. McFadden offered
the followving resolution :
1?esolved, That the executive
committee and the corresponding
secretary of this Association cor
resp~ond wvith the officers of the other
conmpanies of the Sixth Regiment,
inviting them to unite wvith us in
forming a re-union of survivors of
the regiment at the annual meetings
of this Association at Chester on
the first Thursday in August.
Lieut. J. C. McFadden offered
the following:
.Rcsolved, ,further, That this com
mittee report to an adjourned
meeting of this Association their
success, if any, and that a committee
of arrangements be appointed to
perfect preparations for the Regi
xMontal re-union in August next,
These resolutions were unani..
mously adopted.
The Association then adjourned,
to meet again at Chester on the
first Thursday in May next.
