Congressman Catchings, of Mis- sissiDDi. insists that the Democratic I . . party should nominate a Southern. man for President in 1892. That would be very nice, but it is not good politics at present, and the Southern people are not catching on to it with anything like boisterous enthusiasm. If the moralists who are working to revolutionize the bathing cos tumes at the New Jersey watering places would insist upon the bathers wearing American tin-plate suits, they might help the infant tin-plate industry in this country. The body of a man named Smith was found a few days aero in Ala bama. The man-had been tied and shot by unknown parties, without any known reason.

The Great Foot Bace To-day The great foot race for heavy-weights comes off at Camp Fowle at 4 o'clock sharp, this afternoon. ' It is exciting great, interest among tne wfAron and both Mr. Croom and Mr. Jno. Werner have strong backers. Yesterday afternoon it was announced that E. J. Kerminger, of Union county, Co. A, 48th regiment, would take part in the race. He weighs 250 pounds. Melons for the Pensioners. ; ' Hon. C. W. McClammy sent forty watermelons to Camp Fowle yesterday as a present to the pensioners. He also sent six very large ones to Capt. J. B. tr. ;a' ctnn to be disposed of for the benefit of the "crippledest cripple' in camp. The disposal takes place at WILMINGTON, N. O., FRIDAY, JULY 31, 1891. A PLEASANT DAY IN CAMP . VETERANS AND PENSIONERS HAVING A GOOD TIME. Many Lady Visitors Feasting and Fan The Camp Formally Opened Meeting of the Disabled Veterans Association Yesterdays Arrivals-A Badge Pre sented Col. E. D. Hall. Yesterday morning was cloudy, but the weather otherwise was all that could be desired. The men had a good break fast and then gathered about camn in groups to renew again memories of the war, to meet and cordially greet the new arrivals and to make the morning hours pass as pleasantly and agreeably as possibly. A BLIND MUSICIAN : was in the camp with a small melodeon, with which he accompanied his voice in several songs of a sacred character. He was possessed of a good tenor voice which, would have been quite rich and sweet had he not indulged at times in so much of the nasal tone in his effort. As it was, he had a good many listeners and picked up quite a pile of nickels from the music-loving veterans for his petformance. During the forenoon many of the soldiers paid a visit to Wilmington, while a much larger portion went over to Ocean View to enjoy such pleasures as might be found there. Thev all seemed DELIGHTED WITH THE CAMP and were especially gratified at the kind and cordial treatment they had received on every hand. The morning train carried to camp an abundance of good commissary stores, so that the veterans had no excuse for being hungry. Between 400 and 500 rations are issued every day, and it is all of an excellent quality, and no one need go hungry unless he is a most fas tidious epicurian, whose dainty appetite cannot be satisfied without the aid of the dozen courses of a first class me tropolitan hotel table, with plenty of servants to do his bidding. These are not the sort of men in Camp Fowle and, consequently, there was no grumbling and every one had all be wanted, of a kind that was good enough for anybody. Next in point of importance o the commissary department is that of the quartermaster, and the next most im portant duty has been that of Capt. Cazaux in providing good and comfort able Quarters for the men. This he has accomplished almost to perfection. The tents are in excellent order, board floors have been laid to keep the sleep ers from the dampness of the ground, and good rice straw in all of them, so that the veterans slept as soundly, com fortably and sweetly, comparatively, as if they were at home and upon their own home-made beds. In fact, there is no default in the quartermaster's department, and nothing lacking to make the veterans comfortable so far as their tented homes are concerned. The banio player was in his element during the morning hours as seated on spare dining table he sang and played a great number of camp and marching songs, some of which were full of pathos while others were ludicrously funny. He demanded a nickel for every song he sung, and as he was himself a veteran, he was well patronized and bis pockets . . . t were maae consiaeraDiy neavier oy coming to Camp Fowle to attend the re-union of the Confederate veterans. Surgeon General Holliday having been called home on account of a case of sickness, Dr. J. F. Harrell, 6f White- ville, was appointed Surgeon in charge of the camp yesterday morning. He at once assumed the duties of the position, which is equivalent to saying that all those needing medical attention will be nromotlv and efficiently cared for. There was, however, but very little sick jr j ness in camp, and the few cases needing medical attention were slight in charac ter. There were but three or four cases yesterday, none of which was serious,, i LADIES IN CAMP. Quite a number of ladies visited camp yesterday during the day, and made the veterans feel that if they had become old and gray they were not forgotten nor forsaken by the fair sex. Mrs. E Warren, the popular confectioner, was one of the visitors and she made herself especially agreeable by announcing that she would send to camp to-day nve, rroiinna of ice cream and a cake as her nntf-tKninn to the veterans, it is needless to say that her kind and gen fc ---- erous offer was gladly and gratefully ac cepted, and if the fact had been general ly known throughout the camp lusty . old throats would have cneerea ner to the echo. She wore a Confederate badge that eclipsed all we saw during the day, being composed of a number of old Confederate bank bills, as a reminq er of old times. At 10 a. m. the following proceedings were held: Camp Fowle, July 80. 1891 According to annyuncement, W. H. Hamilton, Chairman Disabled Veterans Association, called the Association to order, there being present about 450 members, and read the following, which was adopted: report of the state executive com MITTEE. Fellow Comrades The delegates in convention assembled in Raleigh m ORN1 NG January.. 1891. eiectea a committee with instructions to do all in their power to establish a small home for disabled "Con federate soldiers, and make it self-supporting: also, make arrangements for an annual reunion of the maimed and dis abled veterans of Jthe State. As chair man of that committee, I - havcuthe eeasure of reporting to you what has ten accomplished. Your committee were invited to be present on the 10th ot May, 1889, to at tend a meeting of the Veterans' Associ ation of this State." As chairman of the committee I attended the meeting. It was presided bver by Hon. J. S. Carr, a gentleman well known in the State of North Carolina, and President of the Association, one who has done much to relieve the sufferings of the old Con federate soldiers. That commit tee desired to know the plans that the Pensioners' Association proposed to carry out. I stated to them that our purpose was to estab lish a small place, and that we proposed by the cultivation of the land to make it as near self-sustaining as possible, and that we proposed to have an annual en campment of one week, so that all maimed and disabled soldiers and veter ans of the late war might assemble an nually and enjoy the pleasure of meet ing old comrades. I stated to the com mittee that there would be no conflict whatever with the effort they were making to establish a large Soldiers' Home in the capital city of this State. That we would not in any way solicit aid that would interfere with their work; the aid that we solicited would be from our own ranks, so as not to conflict with the Veteran Organization. Of course the amounts contributed have been small; we, however, did not expect but little from each of our comrades, Unsolicited aid was tendered by some veterans of the ; Union army. A brave enemy never retains malice. As North Carolinians we are proud that the Home is established in Raleigh, under the charge of the noble veterans. Will Stronach, J. S. Carr, and others. It is in such condition and is managed in such a way that your committee ieel that it is only necessary for us to carry out but one of the features we had in view when we formed the Pensioners' Association; that feature is the annual encampment of disabled soldiers and veterans whose pleasure it is to- enter camp with us. This feature ' is of much abled enjoy importance, as all the dis- soldiers and veterans may one week during each, year, and we hope that such an interest may be aroused in the annual encampment as will guarantee an annual gathering so long as there may remain a half dozen of the old soldiers this side of the beyond, where there are no more scant meals; and ragged clothes for the' weary old Confederate soldiers; and the work- so far accomplished in this direction is encouraging, and with the co-operation of Gov. Holt. Col. Hall. Mr. J. S, Carr, Will Stronach, Dr. Sanderlin, Mr. D. W. Bain.l Major J. C. Winder, Col. A. B. Andrews, H. Walters and other men of influence and means, we feel that the success of the gatherings are sure. Your committee suggest that a com mittee of two pensioners in each town ship in every county in the State be ap pointed to secure signers to a petition to be presented to the next General Assembly, asking for an increase of the pension appropriation. - We feel that the prosperity of the State justifies an increase, and that it is nothing but right that those men who went forth at the State's command' and were disabled should have at least sixty dollars per annum, which is barely enough to feed and scantily clothe one person. We also suggest that the said committee meet in the city of Raleigh on Wednesday of the third week alter the convening of the General Assembly and present the petitions, and also use their influence in securing the promise of aid from their benators and Representatives Delore they assemble in session in Raleigh in 1893. Our comrade, Mr. E. F. Fenton, has been specially active. To him we are indebted for the idea ot the convention which asked for the increase of pension. and also for the suggestion of holding the annual encampment. Through his special efforts, articles that we now have on hand, were secured, which articles have been either sold or preserved. A part of them we propose to turn over to the Home in Kaleigh. We feel that as largfe a pension as is possible should be given the disabled soldiers of North Carolina, so they can remain with their families. It is a very hard thing to be separated from home and friends, even to go to a refuge as well kept as that in Raleigh. We are under obligations to many friends in this State, among whom is Mr. J. T. Patrick. Your committee cannot speak too highly of the valuable services rendered by this gentleman, whom we requested to be our trustee, He aided greatly in bringing about the convention in 1889, by obtaining transportation for the delegates, he did all the necessary clerical work, spent his own money in printing ; and postage. He has carried out the wishes and in structions of your committee, he has paid every incidental expense including postage and also for every dollars worth of printing we have done for two years, which amounts to much, as more than ten thousand circulars have been print ed and sent out at our request. Our fund has not been used for a single ex pense. Fellow comrades, I am sure you will appreciate the services he has rendered, for we feel that without his aid the convention would not have been held, and we think through the influence of the convention the pension appro oriation was increased. Mr. Patrick wa a mere child when we were enduring the hardships and pleasures of camp life, but we feel that his heart goes out tq us, and though he is a most untiring worker for the development of North Carolina, yet we know that he does not forget us old veterans, j It affords your committee pleasure to call attention to the services renoerea by Col. E. D. Hall. Adjutant General of the encampment. In the convention of 1889 he introduced resolutions which were passed unanimously. The Legis lature enacted into law the substance ot the resolutions. The disabled veterans are very much indebted to him for the nleasure of meetinc in reunion to-aav. r, - " J.Li.J T i again repeat, we are inueuicu u j . S, Carr, Will btronach, Dr. G. W. Sanderlin, and other gentlemen of North Carolina for their efforts in establishing the Soldier's Home in Raleigh, where a number of our disabled comrades have found comfortable quarters for the re-, mainder of their lives. These gentlemen have been and are willing to do what a great many others iorgoi, in meir enoixs to maite money, devote part of . their energy and - talent for the relief of the old soldiers who are daily suffering for the necessities of life. Thev Sdeserve and' do receive the thanks and prayers of the disabled sold iers who fought under the flag that has been forever furled. We have worked very hard for the present encampment, and hope that it will be successful and meet the expecta tions of the old soldiers, and that each one may enjoy himself to the fullest ex tent and have a good time while in camp and. return to your homes and iamilies in the enjoyment of good health. W. H. Hamilton. Chairman Executive Committee Pen sioners Association. Upon motion of J. T. Skidmore, 1. T. Patrick was requested to act as Secre tary. The following was offered by J. J. Hendrick, and after feeling speeches by the battle-scarred old soldiers, it was adopted unanimously: Recognizing the fact that the soldiers of the South surrendered in good faith, and laid down, their implements of war with all honesty of purpose; therefore. we deplore and condemn the keeping alive the feeling of enmity between the two sections, and in this meeting of the soldiers of the State of North Carolina, who suffered most, be it Resoeued, That we appreciate the fact that the war is over, that peace is abroad in our land, and that we do not hold any animosity to the boys who wore the blue, and that we cordially in vite them to come and share the goodly heritage of a country specially blessed by the Giver of all good blessings. J. T. Skidmore presented the follow ing resolution: Whereas, There is to be held in the city of Kaleigh, N. C. during she months of October and November, 1891, a great exposition of Southern products, and it has been suggested to us that it will be the pleasure ot the management of the Exposition to name several days for a meeting of the soldiers of both armie3, and as such meets with our approval, therefore, be it Jiesotvea, 1 hat the chairman appoint a committee of five on the part of the disabled veterans of North Carolina to co-operate with a like committee which has already been appointed by the North ern Settlers' Association, in making the meeting a grand success, and we ask that the last week in October be named as the date for the reunion. Adopted unanimously. On motion ot J. S. Dunn, J.T. Patrick was elected an honorary member of the Disabled Veterans' Association. On motion, a committee of five to draft resolutions expressing the grati tude ot the disabled veterans . for the kindness received at the hands of the citizens of Wilmington, especially the ladies of the Memorial Association, was adopted, and the chairman appointed the following gentlemen, J. S. Dunn, Capt. Pettey, of Iredell, E. F. Fenton, J. J. Hedrick and J. F. Skidmore. On motion, a committee of two from each county in the State was appointed to visit Raleigh during the session of the next General Assembly, and petition for an increase in the pension appro priation. On motion, the meeting adjourned subject to the call of the chairman. GERMANIA CORNET BAND, At about 4 p. m. the Germania Cornet Band, under the leadership of Prof. J. (j. Miller, Jr., marched into camp in full uniform, and playing "Dixie in a manner that made hundreds of veterans yell with delight. During the after noon the band played at inter vals and when they .began a selection you may rest assured they had attentive and delighted listeners. Only a part of the band was present, but they played most delightfully, notwithstanding they were comparatively few in number. Mr. T. N. Richardson was in 'camp yesterday in charge of the following from the Soldiers' Home at Raleigh: Dr. D. P. Ramseur, B. F. Taylor, K. W. Aldrldge, A. Maxton, W. H. Buis, N. Carter, P. M. Brown, T. M. Justin, A. Oliver, J. Wr. Marshall, N. Brady, W. Thomas, W. Caston, H. Herring, W. Poe and C. C. Pierce. col. x. D. hall, was presented with a very handsome gold badge by the disabled veterans, as a token of their highesteem and love for him, and their appreciation of his labor. In presenting iltf Chair man Hamilton, a blind " Veteran," said: "It's intrinsic value : is small, yet it is from the hearts ot the maimed veterans of the State. Those who went out in '61 are now getting old, and each will soon receive his fur lough, signed by the great Commander, with orders to report on the other shore, alter which no leaves of absence will be granted. There we shall remain till the sound of the last revielle of the Resurection morn, when I hope we shall all meet around the great white throne and know each other there." ; The badge represents a soldier "at rest," with his banner furled In the rear the guns are dismounted and laid aside. It is of solid gold and came;from he gold mines of Anson county. MORE ARRIVALS. - ; The following registered at camp yesterday: TAR WHOLE NO. 7.716 E P Sewell, co H, 26th.
