"Governor Stone, of Mississippi, who
has been re-nominated by the Demo
crats . of that State for re election,
served with distinction as Colonel of
the Second Mississippi (Confederate)
regiment," General! Joseph R, Davis'
brigade, during the late war. In the
absence ;of General Davis the brigade
was commanded by ; Colonel Stone,
who at the batttle of the Wilderness
distinguished himself by his cool judg
ment '-and v daring exploits. He with
three regiments held a Federal divi
sion at bay, when all others had given"
way, maintaining his position until
General Longstreet's command could
march to his assistance! When Gen
eral A. P. Hill met this brave Missis
sippiani he exclaimed, 'Here is ;my
brave; Colonel Stone, ueneraixvoueri.
E.Lee took occasion' to isend ! for
Colonel Stone, and when he.., reached
the headquarters, complimented him
for his bravery and conduct." 5 "

Commerce for two reasons : 1
First, because we wish to make
some corrections, and
Secondly, because we wish te bear
tfistimonv to the gallant conduct oi
Col. Stone, not only at the wilderness,
but throughout the entire war. Ihe
South had not then, nor do we believe
she has now, a truer son than J.-M.
Stone. As senior Colonel of Davis'
brigade, he had. command .of the
brigade, frpm the battle Gettysburg
to the close of the war, as much or
more than Gen. Jos. R. Davis himself,
and in everv Dosition. whether in the
camp or in the field, leading his battal
ions, he bore himself with that true
courage and that unflinching regard
for dutv. which marked him as one of
nature's noblemen.
9
At the battle of the wilderness, as
stated; by the Journal of Commerce, he
had command ef Davis' brigade, con
sisting of (not three regiments but of)
the 2nd, 11th, 26th, 42nd Mississippi
Regiments, the 56th North Carolina
State troops, and the 1st Confederate
Battalion. He not only held a "Fed
eral division at bay," but his brigade
actually repulsed five distinct lines of
battle, and held their position from
1 o'clock p. mi until after sundown, in
one of the hardest contested engage
ments which marked the annals of the
war. But Colonel Stone did not make
his record of bravery at the wilder
ness. It was made before. It lived
afterwards, and no member of that
gallant bid band, will ever utter a word
which will detract from the well-
earned reputation of the dashing
colonel who led us (for the writer was
one ef them ) through so many hard
fights; and wherever he may go, and
whatever may be his fate, the good
wishes of the men who composed the
old brigade will go with him. Those
of us who survive rejoice to know that
he has been called to the highest place
within the gift of the people of Missis
sippi, believing that her distinguished
adopted son is not more honored than
is she herself, in conferring this mark
of appreciation and favor upoij Colonel

THE SOUTH CAROLINA FRAUDS
The Democrats in South Carolina
are still going ahead in the unearth
ing of the frauds and rascalities which
were practiced on that Radical-
ridden commonwealth during the
regime of the thieves' party. The
investigating committee is after
some of "the noted; leaders with
sharptstick, and ex-Governor Moses
seems to'fbe safely Sand securely in
their toils. He'has concluded to
make a clean breast of it, and has
lately turned over to the committee a
package of papers, which are startling
iaiheir nature. , 4 , . A

note of Senator Merrimon's late speech
at Chapel, Hill.l It - says : 'Perhaps
the most healthful sign is the dispbsi
uon of public men to be honest in
their criticisms and tell ' the trjith
about the short-comings of their peo
ple. There Tne ver was a better exam-pl-MlthMPifc
speaking than the
speech of Judge Merrimon, delivered
last week at Chapel Hill, N. C." .
THE CASES OVERRULED AND
; AFFIRMED.: ) ,
"H.," who is well known to be J BHus-
sey Esq., writing from Statesville to
the Raleigh Observer, reviews the seventy-sixth
North Carolina reports in a
very interesting manner, and in the
course of his remarks says ;
Judge Cannon ought to be th e proud
est man in the State. He " had only
one case before the court, and that
was affirmed. . Probably he has some
cases in tbe Court of Appeals of Mary-
and." He held court or attempted s to
hold court in Baltimore whilst riding
the first circuit. Judge Cannon has
never enjoyed a distinguished reputa
tion as a lawyer, but he is evidently a
successful Judge; judged by his record
in the 76th reports. Judge Eure had
only one. case before the court and in
that he was over-ruled. It presents an
interesting question. A will declares :
"that my executors have discretionary
powers to settle my estate as they judge
best for the interest of the heirs at law."
Held, that the. executors. have no pow
er, to sell the lands of the testator.
Judge Furches was affirmed in 4 out of
8 cases; Judge McKoy in 5 out of 10;
Buxton in 10 out of 18; Schenck in 12
out of 17; Kerr in 14 ut of 25; ' Mdore
in 4 out of 9; Watts in 7 out 12; Henry
in 5 out of 12. One of Judge Henry's
cases in the language of Justice Reade,
'is not fit to be entertained by 'the
court. It must have been a case of a
very bad moral indeed. Seymour in
12 out. of 17: and Cloud, the great
luminary of the nisi prius bench , guess
ed right in 7 out of 11 cases. t
"Judge Uioud, though the butt tot
newspaper ridicule, is one of the most
sensible Judges in the State.' He never
decides any question without first ob
taining the opinion of. one or two of
the best lawvers at the bar. If thev
diner, then he guesses." i

"we'll both bathe!" Then , the young
