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

Llaehelor's b~e vindicated."
Responded to 'by Mr. HI. 14. Obear,

At the witching hour of a summer's
night 'so slabliioly described in the
famous lines
"-'Tis midnight, and. the sitting sun

The rapid rivers slowly run,
The rog is in his downy nest,

The next toast wA "Tihe Bar-tho
safeguard of the innocent, the terrot
Df the guilty; we hope that the profes

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."

Next in order was the toast "The
Pay we Celebrate-the brightest day
of the year to the members of out
Order. 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. That you are aware of thd
deep initerest I have taken in this pr
ganization is oviden ced by the trunst
y ou have arepeatedly reposed in mte.
As in the past, so in the fttures I htope
I shall do niothing thmat wvill metl y~3our

my host, atnd any mnistakes I make wvill
be errors of the hteadg not- the of the
