Keep the Record Right. In The Guardian, published by H. L. Suaife, in connection with the Graded School, in June, 1900, I wrote the article headed "Union in the Late War."

After more than three years I am told that Boyd's Company wa9 not surrendered by Capt. Jeffries. That throe companies from as many counties were consolidated just before the surrender and Kirkland of the Fairfield company was made captain and Moses Wood of Boyd's company 1st Lieutenant. Kirkland was acting, temporarily, quartermaster and Lieutenant Wood surrendered the company. Capt. Jeffries was at home when the consolidation took place. H. F. Soaife.

The Texas chapter of the Daughter f the Confederacy at their late meeting dopted the following resolutions: "Whereas, the President of the United itates, by his recent course toward tli* tepublic of Panama, has shown to the rorld his endorsement of the principle f secession; and "Whereas, the people of the Northern Itates, by their acceptance and approval f his course, have shown that they have ieen led by him out of the fog of ignoance to the bright realms of truth, atained by the Southern Statesmen so uany years ago; be it "Resolved, That we extend to the Resident the hearty thanks of the laughters of the Confederacy of the itale of Tex is, in Convention assembled, or his endorsement of the principles aud lis vindication of the cause for which he Southern people fought so gloriously n the war between the States " m The Monument to Gonzales. Mrs. Virginia D. Young has made i vory earnest appeal through the iVoman's Journal of Boston for subicriptions in aid of the memorial to )e erected at Columbia in honor of llr. N. G. Gonzales, the editor of The state, who was killed by James H. rillmpn last January. After giving a most elegant and jathetic account of his life and dislinguished services, Mrs. Young entreats her ''sister sutlragists everywhere to help in this memorial wors. [f aught could assuage the grief of lis adoring family, made recently more poignant by the cruel farce of i trial at Lexington," Mrs. Young idds, "it must be the sympathy of those who appreciate the value and love the qualities of the martyr-editor. We make this love and value tangible in combining to erect a monument to his memory." The special ocoasiou of this appeal to the women suffragists of the country was Mr. Gonzales' "chivalrous jharaplonship of woman sulfrage." It was beoause of his sympathy with them in this movement, or at least in iome of its features, that Mrs. Mary P. Screven, of Columbia, S. C., has itarted a "Woman and Press Fund with the object of raising a monument to Editor N. G. Gonzales." There ought to be a prompt and liberal response to this call for con ..riuuuons to a very deserving oDject.
