MIt, B. Y. MMJUOWN'S VISIT TO BROTHER. Laurons was honored Monday by a visit from Mr. 13. Y. McQuovvn, of Clin ton, who has just returned from a trip to Bee bis brother, Mr. J. M. McQuown, in Columbus, Miss. Tins was the first time the brothers have met in twenty two years, Mr. J. M. McQuown having visited here then. Numbers of people in Laurens county enjoy the friendship of or acquaintance with Mr. McQuown, especially the readers of The Adver tiser, for many years ho being a regu lar contributor to the columns of this paper under the pen name of "Sloeum Gilson." While in the city Monday he talked very interestingly of bis trip to Mississippi and the genuine pleasure o/ the visit to his brother. "it was the greatest time of my life," said he. "To say that I enjoyed myself does not express it at all: it wits simply grand and I was happy every minute of my time. My brother and 1 were both in the war, although not in the same company or even the same regiment, he enlisting in Company K, 19th Mississippi, at Baldwin, while 1 was a member of Company P, Mtb South Carolina. He moved to his pres ent home just forty-two years ago and engaged in the manufacture of wagons, buggies, etc., in which business he has made quite a success and is now well fixed so far as this world's goods is con cerned. Needless to say that he did all a man could do to make me enjoy my stay with him; he was a host royal." Continuing the narration of his visit, Mr. McQuown said that the greatest day of his life was Thursday, the 13th of August, when he witnessed a sham battle between parts of the United States troops, then in camp near the city of Columbus. "Hut," said he, "the battle wa^ not the greatest feat ure of the day; it was the banquet ten dered the old Confederate soldiers at 2 o'clock after the battle was over. There were ninety-four of us old soldiers there and 1 have never in my life sat down to such a spread as was ours that day; but the best of all was that wc were served by the officors of the United Stales army. They waited on us. I shall never forget that day so long as I live." Mr. McQuown says that the crops out in Mississippi are not very promising, the corn being quite poor and the cot ton suffering from the extremely wet weather. The writer was much inter ested in the conversation with Mr McQuown oven when it turned to poli tics and the plain-spoken, honest old veteran differed widely with him on some questions and even censured him for some of his views. Hut the differ ence of opinion did not prevent them becoming friends and will not likely de stroy the pleasant acquaintance newly made. ?Mr. McQuown is a reader and a strong friend of The Advertiser; be did not take his departure boforospeak ing in glowing terms of Col. W. W. Ball, now of Charleston. Thinks it Saved Iiis Life. Lester M. Nelson, of Naples, Maine, say ; in a recent letter: "I have used Dr. King's New Discovery many years for coughs and colds and I think it saved my life. I have found it a reliable rem edy for throat and lung complaints and would no more be without a bottle than I would bo without food." For nearly forty years New Discovery has stood at the head of throat and lung remedies. As a preventive of pneumonia and healer of weak lungs it has no equal.
