Literary Ad ro.-s, Ftiday morning ft' by 1 rot. II. is. bnyiler ot ^paiiauburg. Public invited. 4? There has been a good d? al of talk lu'.ely about changing the place of holding the join*, encampment of the Jotinsou Rifles and i'ea Ridge Guards, and the Surviving Veterans. Several placet have been suggestel as beiog preferable to Orr's, among them being L'uion, Lock hart Shoals and Jooesvillc. We hardly see how the place could be changed uow without a good deal of trouble. The Companies invited the veterans to join with them at Orr's and that invitation was accepted. There was some talk at the time about other places which were thought by some to be more suitable, but the discussioa was cut short by a suggestion from Capt. Douglas that it wou'.d be a breach of courtesy to sug gest any change of place as they were going as the guests of the two companies. To change the place now, another meet" iag of the two companies aud another meeting of the veterans, or at least of their special committees, would be necessary. It would not be hard to get a meeting of the committees of the two companies, but it would be next to impossible to get the Veterans commute loget ber. This cotcmitlco numben fifty?five from each township and nuny ?I them were not here on the day of the meeting whon they wore appointed. A change of place is ceriaiuly desirable howevar. and ahould bo effected if It can be done satisfactorily. The present location is only a mile or two f.om Jonosville so we arc i old. and to clianoe t h nla.'C even two miles coul'l not bo si gre;it inconvenience to anyone. The Jolimon Kiflo* would hardly want it at Union, because that would tike away from them all the romance of the encampment. Iiockhart Shoals is loo far out of the way. l.csides, Jonesville through a select com in it t oe has extended formal invitations to to the two companies and to the veteran* through Col. 1.(1 McKissick, to saeot at that place, otitis suitable grounds and pledges the hospita ity of the town. Mere are the invitations ? To The .Johnson KiHos, Union, ,S. C. Cent lumen: Wo the tinder* signed coiiiuiitlee of Jonesville, S. C.t cordially invite you to hold your Kncampincul of the coming summer iu our town. We have tiiroe desirable places to offer you, free of charge; each place lias a good ipring and beautiful grove. Hoping thai yuu may accept this invitation we .are. Signed (Committee.) One like the above wis also sent to the Pea Rtdge Guards. Tito invitation to the veterans reads as follow * Col. I. C. McKissick, union, o. u. Dear Sir: We the uuJcrsigncd committee have this day extendsd to The Jolinxoii KilU-a, of Union, S. C., and The l'ea Ridge Guards, of Kulton. S.

Should they accept this iuvitation aud hold their Kn:ainpaioiit here, we cordially invite every io'.dier in Union County of the late Confederate War to our town during this Encampment of the above name 1 companies. Hoping that same will be held here and that you will make known this invitoienthroughout the ounty to all the eld veterans, we are, Signed (Committee.) Why not waive all conventionalities and let Col. Mchiseick and the committee from ho two c nopanies settle about the place lo J ones rule let us go. A large aad omhuuustic meeting of the business men of I lie town was held io tbe directors room of the M. and P. Bank last Monday evening at aix o'clock. Miyor John A. Funt was called to the chair and B. F. Arthur was undo Secratery. Tbe present condition of the pubiio roads was thoroughly discussed and it was the sense of the meeting that a committee be appointed to wait on Mr. J. B. T. Scoit County Supervisor and request that nil roads be put in first class condition as early an practicab'e, and to urge that steps be taken at odcj to put into actual servica tbe New Boa I Machine which was purchised some lime ago at quite an out'ay of tbe County funds.
