A Card From Col. Moore.
We cheerfully give plac9 herewith to a
card! from Co!. Roger Moore. In our re
port! of the proceeding of the Conven
tion held on 'Saturday afternoon we aim
ed to give as full a report ,as possible
but the fact that we had- so little time in
which to get out the report will account
for ajw. inadvertent errors." It was not
ha complete as we desired but it was as
nearly so as we could make it in1 the short
time at our disposal. Col. Mo : re's card i

J. Ti James, Es., Editor Review;
Dear !ir In your report ox the pro
cetdings o the Democratic Ccunty Con
vention, held on Saturday laat, your re
porter did rrean injustice, though unin
tentionally, I am sure, by not stating
that! I declined, peremptorily, to serve,
uncfer the circumstances, on the Executive
Committee as Committeeman frum the
Second Ward. The circumstances aro
these: When Xt. Joseph' J. Bowdeu, a
resident of the First Ward, offered the
resolutions, naming the Executive Com
mittee, I offered an amendment, substi
tutlng the names of Maj. John W. Dun
ham and Q. J. Boney, Esq., as commit
teensen from the Second Ward, in the
place of the names proposed; as our
Ward bad expressed a preference for
those gentlemen, though not act
ually voting for them. My
amendment was voted down,
and the original, by Mr. Bowden, was
then adopted, I immediately declined
tho hon .nd refu8ed emohJticallv to
. .
i serve, under the circumstances, and re-
I quested the Convention, for the sake of
I harmony, to put one of the gentlemen
(the preference of our Wardlin my place:
I that 1 could not, and would net accept.
I nor would I allow myself to be forced
upon my vvara wnen iney naa already,
in myiopinion,expressed a preference; and
that 1 was sure it would be exceedingly
distasteful to the Democratic voters of
out Ward to have a gentleman from the
First Ward select their Committeemen.

by tha fir women vi unr !d, 10
the memory of ii.obv who, iiking
ali, yielded u) their iives in defence of
the principles for which they fought, we
fear that tho graves which contain now
but the dust of many of the gallant men
who vore the gray, would go untouched,
unnoticed sr.d uncared for, until finally
all traces of Ice spot where these heroes
lio bured would become obliterated for
ever. The Ladies' Memorial Association
of this city has perfoimed its duty in this
respectas in all others, nobly aud well.
The Association here, which dates its or
ganization back some twelve years
ago, has not only purchased a lot in
which to bury the Conferdato dead, but
has had tho ground enoloaed with a hand
some and substantial railing. In the cen
tro of this lot tho ladies have caused
to be erected one of the handsomest mon
uments to be seen anywhere in the South
and which has been the object of great
admiration by all visitors to Oakdale
Cemetery, chief amocg whom was the
distinguished old chieftain and 'war-worn
veteran, General Joseph E. Johnston
But this is net all the ladies have done;
every Confederate Boldier who now lies
buried in the cemeteries here if no other
monument marks the spots has a marble
stone with his initials 'in gilt letters, to
gether with the name of the -command to
which, he was attached, carved in the
stone. This is done even now whenever
an old Confederate soldier dies and is
buried in any of our cemeteries here,
where no other monument is erected t'o
his memory. In this way, the excellent
ladies of this worthy Association are per
petuating the memories of the Confederate
dead. Gcd bless the noble hearts that
inspire such devotion; and may God bless
the willing hands of the dear ladies who ecu
tinue this good work; from generation . to
generation, so long as timo shall last and
there is a grave to tjQ fieen that holds the
dust of a brave soldier who was ever
clad in gray.
