The address of Rev. A. A. James 'r<
was a spirited, humorous and pathetio pr
portrayal of the Confederate soldier's th
life, sayings and doings, so character- ac
Istio of the speaker, that every word
was listened to with interest and due ?
sp
appreciation by the entire audience. Bi,
All of the other reading recita- ac
tiona were beautifully and most ad- PJ
mirably rendered, and?the songs were wj
Bweetly and feelingly sung. ta
Just before the presentation of co
these crosses, Rev. A. A. James presented
to Mrs. B. G. Clifford, President
of the Chapter, an old pipe made 8a
frpm a piece of clay taken from the sa
crater at Petersburg, Va., by a sol- at
dier and given to him. As he hand- J*
ed her the pipe, he bid the old pipe .
good-bve in touching words and pa- ar
thetio tones of regret, at the parting or
with a cherished souvenir, around *e
which clustered sad but fond mem- ^
ories. The following are the names g(
of the veterans who received a cross la
of honor: 8. M. Rice, Sr., J. B. Por- re

Douglass, W. J. Crocker, Geo. Roch- bi

It was a pleasure to see that array co
of old yeterans, their faces light up gr
and burn with the fire of true patriotism
at the sound of the bugle ac
and When they received the S<
cross of honor as a token of appreciation
in honor of their heroic deeds,
their countenances beamed with sat- iei
isfaction and delight, expressive of
their gratification that tjiey and their
struggles had not been forgotten. m
A touching incident was that during T.
the precentation of the crosses, the name if|
of Capt. J. T. Douglass was called (Capt 0I
Douglass was unavoidably absent) his ct
little grandson, Douglass DePass, with
a mai.ly slip walked out and received ^
the cross. A cheer went up, to see one 0I
of such tender years, so early in life im- w
bibing as it were the spirit of bis grand- ir
fathers. * ?

He spoke in feeling terms of the days t<
when he proudly waved that tattered B

"A land without ruins is a lend without

is a land without liberty! A land that q
wean a laurel crown may be fair to see,' *
but twine a few sad, sad cypress leaves
around the brow of any land, and be
that land beantiless and bleak, it becomes
lovely in its consecrated coronet
of sorrow, and it wins the sympathy of a
the heart and history. Crowns of roses D
fade; crowns of thorns endure I Calva- j(
ries and crucifixes take deepest hold 0

'Yes! give me a land where the ruins

Yes! give me the land that hath legend

YesI give me a land that hath story

YesI give me the land with a grave in

YesI give me the land of the wreck

here's a grandeur in graves?there's a

For out of the gloom future brightness
is born,
s after the night looms the sunrise of
of morn.
And the graves of the dead with the

All yet be a rock in the Temple of

IMMIGRATION SOUTH.
iige Parties Attracted to South
Carolina and Elsewhere,
Washington Evening Star, Jan. 15.)
The work oMhe last decade in inloing
immigration to the Southern
ates by the land and industrial deirtment
of the Southern railway,
slated by the residents and the
.rious industrial organizations of
e South, is bearing results that
irpass expectations. Large parties
iss through Washington almost
ktly on their way to the South to
ke up new homes. Special atten>n
is being paid to the farmer imigrants.
They are being attracted
jm Canada and Europe.
Representatives of a party of 200
ospeotive German immigrants of
e North StateB and the fatherland,
companled by officials of the rail\y
company, passed through the
by last night to make a tour of inaction
of the South. They are & rous
of g*mng ma uption on 10,000
res of land, and will visit the more
oduotive states to find a suitable
cation. The land will be selected
Ith a view to its fertility, advanges
and the healthfulnes of the
immunity.
Mr. M. V. Richards, head of the
nd and industrial department of V
e railway, is pleased with the re- >
ilts attained in South Carolina. He >
ys there are a number of feasible
id well-considered colonization proots
under way in the South at the
esent time.
"South Carolina," said Mr. Richda,
"feels the effect of the extradinary
factory development, a derlopment
which for several years
is attraoted to itself not only the
ost able and energetic men of the
iate, but the better class of farm
bor as well. The mill men have
ached a point whera they realize
iat the source of their labor?the
iral districts?must be replenished
ith people to meet local demands
r the raw staple, as well as supply
ie markets which the mills have
'ought into existence with such
arvelous rapidity.
"One of the movements referred to
ntemplates interesting Scotch immiants.
The Scotch figured prominently
the early colonial settlements in both
e Carolinas, and many of their leading
id most Droflrreasive citizens ar? of
;otch or Scotch-Irish extraction. The
ivironment is highly favorable to Scotch
imignpis.
"ATJot her movement looks to the provcces
of Canada for reinforcements of
irat population. A considerable colony
French-Canadians has taken up lands .
tarSummerville. and it isexpected that
any more will follow in the near future. /
heae people, like the French and Ital- '
ns of the continent, are exceedingly
oee farmers and skilled vineyardists,
id are especially well adapted to the
mditions in the Carolinas.
"Other communities are making ef?rts
to attract German immigration,
fhile different sections have their pretences,
the German farmer is eveiyhere
acceptable. No more who'esome
ifluence can be introdu ed into single
*op sections than the methods of the
erman farmer, illustrated by the Gerlao
himself. It is a method which ha*
stained and conserved the fertility of
le soil of the fatherland through hunreds
of years devoted to constant cultiation."
The officials of the Southern Railway
iompany are in recelnt of information
> the effect that a large number of the
toers of the Transvaal are desirous of
nmigrating to the United States and
rating in the Southern States. A letit
was received at the general offices of
He railway today from South Africa inuiring
as to the adaptability of the
arious States of the South to the habits
nd pursuits of the Boers
