TrffH BACHEBLOR8 IN.0UNOIL. An Enjoyable Reunion qf the Protective Unioil-:-4nuine low of liou13. In Greatest Profusion. The Bachelors' Protective Union 'celebAtebd their fifth anWuh'l sympo slum, with the usual festivities, on (h6 evening of Thursday, AMIkh t. 'fTho hour announced for the commencement of the qxercises was 7A p. n., and 1romptly at that hour the sworn foes of matrimnony began to gather. One by one (and occasionally two by two) thdey ropped in, and at length, after the delay uRually iniiident to the gath ing together of a 'body.6 fine-looking young men, the Union was called to order, the urbane and a&ceomnplished 'Grand President in tWe chair. On calling the roll, it was found that a mRority of the offizers were present, -ii atilhe Union commehnced their Iabors. The first business of public importance was welcoming to the ramiks of those who proclaim aloud they joys of sin gle life se'Veral candidates, who, after hovering aroun-4he lighted candle of woman's charms, had determined to tear themselves oice and forever from temptation and danger, and go "where the wick-e& cease from troublingd'," et:c. Great onthusiasmi was manifested by lhe members at the evidence of their growing popularity and i)ower, as in dicated by this accession to their numt bers, and 'every preparation was made to give the candidates a warm wel come. Everything being in readiness, the initiates were ifli-oiuced and made members of the Union in ample form 'mnd with all the time-honored cerenmo nial appropriate to the occasion. it iny 'be possible that some IteAige of 'the .ritual' would be more hoiored in the breach than in the observance, but, slowever this may be, wve venture the opinion that 'the initiation will prove an occasion long to be remembered by those who particip~ated in it. - The election ot' was the next impor 'tant business. The Grand President was, in spite of 'his ofita opposition, re-elected by acclamation. A like honor was confer'red upolm 'the Grand Vice-Pr'esidenut and -lho Secretary. Thme big button fo'r the most consAt cnt mlember was awvardIed to the Grand Vice-President, McCants. The little button for the next most consistent imember wvas awarded to the Grand IFrosmetinmg Attorney, Douglass. The new initiated nmembhers were app~ointed to the following offices: fl. L. Wilsoin, to be Grand Captain of . 1.hme Iost; G. W. Riagedale, to be Grand Mogul; 0. W. Buchanan, to be Grand 111gh Chancellor; We i. Doty, to be Grmand Tycoon. The Union then transacted some routine business, after which the of fleors of the body amid their invited guests-4a distinguished delegation fr-om thme Biar and Prmess-sproeeded en masse to the Winnisbero lHotel, wvhere a tempt ing banquet awaited them. 0f this banquet suiflce it to say that it was b eautiful 'to the eye, luscious to the palate, mnd like the soft haze that sur rounds far distant tvustern hills is thme fondl reminiscence of its departed joys. Peace to its ash-Its crumbs. The keen demands of appetite being at, igst:.satiated,. the .membe's Ailed their goblets to the brim, and the rega.. 1ar toasts of thme evening were drank. Tihe fir's, toast In regular order was: "The Press-as loig as we have a fear less press, so long ill the ettige of the Llaehelor's b~e vindicated." Responded to 'by Mr. HI. 14. Obear, who said: ' Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Ilachelors'. DetcorailVe Untion: The *Pres of business: has provecnted me fro prparnga set oration, with w wihtopess upon your feeble Iintel. loots in impressive lam nguage the - high aims and noble 'objects of thle Pr'ess.

At the witching hour of a summer's night 'so slabliioly described in the famous lines "-'Tis midnight, and. the sitting sun Is slowly riig in'the West, The rapid rivers slowly run, The rog is in his downy nest, The pensive goat, the sportive cow Hilarious hop froia bough to bough." Wh'e slift oh .a bench beneath a wide-spreading tree in her father's front yard, whil the dewy air i heav.y with the o r of the flowers, and the warnith is t6M %We with a getle zephyr whispering through the trees 6 iN n the drowsy song of the katydki is heard in the fhr away, and the wakeful scream of the "skeeter" is andible in the near at Mil; when the moonlight shiatnered through the leaves breaks spon yol both in a deolicious half light, when she looks up to you with a stai-tled you-oan-ask papa expiression in her amethyst eyes, and you are morally certain a big red ant Is crawling up -your leg, while with arm around her waist you gently "Press her yielding form to thite." Then gentlemen, and only then, can you fully appreciate the Power of thb IPress. The next toast wA "Tihe Bar-tho safeguard of the innocent, the terrot Df the guilty; we hope that the profes sion will always be represented at our meetings." Responddd to by Mr. H. A. Gaillard, who said: Mr. President and Gentlemen: It Is refteshing to find so familiar a title amnong tie august personages around this festive board. I am called upon to respond in behalf of the "bar". Now tiere is in this phrase a supieious ambiguity, but I assume that the par ticular bar in question is that repre sented by the-equivalent expression -legal profession. Of this bar, I may say at raidom-for I have no prepared speech-that it is an clement in the social organization of all civilized States, aind has a place in the ecomomy of all communities, except China, Ttr key, Africa and that small fraction of the old Feasterville Club, that in the ast campaign united with the Green back party. It must. be confessed that its reputation in Ijie community is de cidedly mixed, varying from that at tachinig to a most exalted and honora ble profession to that expressed by these timiliar anecdotes: "Thue bar is comnposed of a set of learned gentle men, who are exceedligly active in rescuing your property from your opponents to keel) it themselves"; and by this--"Lawyers are very much ad-~ dicted to contingent fees, wvhich often stilt this situation-if. they lose the case they get nothing, and if theyr in it, the cli ent gets nothingQ" But, Mr. President, I2 have aid that tho profession of law is a fattor ini all civilized society, and so it' must be of necessity. Wherever civil and consti tutional'liberty exists In an endurinig form, it must rest uponi the supremacy of the law ; and wherever human ac tion is controlled reguilated b9 la# there must be these 41hose function it it to learn, expound andi teach the law, and to ap~ply it to the transactions of life. But this, again, it too serious. If I were called npon, Mr. President, to exercise my legal acquiremnents in this club, I would invoke thle powers of' the law in arraininmg the whlole club for serious infraction of' your organic law, from the President down, imludi ng the i..osinmg potentates-thme Grand Maharjahm of Madagascar, the Granid Tyvcoon, the Grand Mogul and all; and I would bring to justice ' the Prosecuting Attomey himself, who, guilty himself, has failed to detect and punish these offenders. I have wit nessed much that recalls these lines, taken at ranidom from an old collection I resorted to in younger dav "The gentle pressure and the thmrillihng The least glance, better understood than -words, Which still say all and ne'er can say too iuch."' Bunt this is really too exciting, and I must desist, for I see you are rostive under these tender thoughts. In concelusion, let me tell this comn forting anecdote1 in .which the legal rights of lVoiWs Anro defined. It was a decision of a justice's cout of Illintois which though proceedig from a true "court of errors" and froftt another jurisdiction, would still have been pro nounc'ed gooud. law by your Grand Chancellor, when he sat apons the wool sack t An Illinois tparent etitering a pt-tlor, eenpied by his daughter and her young, man, wvas forcibly ejetited by thie latter. He bl'oua'ht sdit against the young man and the justice ruled as follows 1 "1 klayo heard both sidlee. Courting is a publ1)11 necessity and n81st mIft bd~ interrupted. A parenit, under the laws of Illinois, must not ent'er the par'lor whent courtlimg is afoot. -The acto.m is dhismissed and thto pialm tiff must pay ti'e dosts." The next toast Was "T~he Mai'loed Man-he who .is willing to sacriflee himself for, the' good of 'his doluntr'y, shall AlWays havo our heartfelt sym jiathy." Rleponded to by MaQ'T. W. Wood-' w'ardg who said [Unhapily Major Woodward Was unable to attend. Hlad he b.deti pres emit. he would have said: o * *) The next toast was "T'ite lIndlelor in the immortal latgitage of the Akoondc'f Swat, 'The noblast work of God.' .What a happy period in the world's history Wvhen It was alone in habited by the bachelor Adam." Responded to by Grand Proseduting Attorney (2. A. Douglass, Who said t li(.'

May we all be spared to see many happy returns of our- aniiiver tu'y.") Responded to by Grand President Lauderdale, who said: Follow-members of the' Bachelors' Protective Union: Allow ine to 'coi gratulate you and myself on being spared to see once more the dawn of another first day of Iarcl-tho clay of all the (days to worthy bachelors; the day upont which we assemble to recount onri advent ures wvith the enemy during the past year~ and whilst over flowving with joy anm mirth at our vic tories within the past twelve meonthas; still finding time to 'drop a tear' over' the graves of' ourI comrades who, although dead to us for'ever more, will still be l'ound in "arms" I By a provision of Providence in recgulatinig the aliairs of' this wor'ld, no joy is so pure that it may not be tinged with sadness ; no pleasur'e so great thatu it canntot be dimmed by sorrow; no sun so bright that It cannot be clouded ; the sweet is alwvays mixed with thie bitter's And while we have a grecat deal to be prou~d of in what we see around us to-night, ill ther'e is an other aide to the piature thant is needed to truly represent the livcs of' the members of' this Bachelors' Protective Union. It is tr'ues fellowv-meo~mer, that we have a goodly numbater ar'oundc this festive board this evening, still our minds cannot help revertin"' to the past. Amidst all this revelry, wio does not find himself' sparing a' thought to the fato of' our comrades who have fallen by the~ roadside since our last meeting? .Rememnber' that for the last four' months this gallant host has been without aCaptain, as lhe has "Centered" upon1 other society ; and the tall and manly form of' the Grand Pi osecutling Attorney rises at any left hanad no more to thunder f'orth 1his charges uponu yout~ dev~oteti heads. Bioth of these A-oi-o ichar'ter member's men Who shouild have been strongest in the faith, and yet wvhere are they? Indeed, by the behiavior' of' somne of' our brothers diir: ing the last twelve months, ot'r society came well nigh ear'ning the reputations which sonmc outsideir saw lit to give it, viz., a society for thu alid and promo:. tion of mnaliriage rath dr thtan lts proe vent ion. it is true we hitve only had two "deaths"-, yet there are other cases almost hopeless, andl to whom I think death would be a relief-that they would welcome rather' than dreatd i i Now, gentlemen, as I have hastily reviewed the dark side of' the pictur'e, Weo will tutu over and take a glance at the bright side, and here it is beitarc us. This is really the first incting we have had in which the ra'nks have been en.. tiaely full; the limit has been reached and although the past year has carried with it seine of our' best members, still, considering everythitng, think we escaped lightly. Some oneo hab said that the number of marriages ini South Carolina is regulated by the oat er'op, and you all knowv what a tr'emnendous crop we had last y'ear'. Judgina- from the prospects this year, we wvill ntc lose a sinigle' mommber, WIhetn this Society wvas first organize~d its foes predicted that our first meeting would be the last ; but we have shown themn that it was do foolish boast, wvhen we said that *e would make this 8eaoty the most popular in town, Wo have beenor'ganized now for five years, and we ard~ stronger to-day than ever ho fore, Allow me to thank you foa' the high and distinguished honaor yotu have conferred.
