flrtm n m tir ,
vuuK.naiiuia warnocK, or uaio, a
grizzly veteran of the civil war who
wore the blue, paid North Carolina a
handsome compliment while speaking
on the Army Appropriation bill in
Washington Thursday. He wrfs dis
cussing (he great conflicts of th Civil
War, and in adverting to the Twenty-sixth
North Carolina regiment at
Gettysburg is quoted by the Raleigh
Post correspondent as having said:
"That I regard as one of the most
remarkable instances in all history.
?.ha.,?5?1linen,t was 820 tn. It had
86 killed : and 502 wounded, making
a total of 688 or 7L7 per cent. That
was in the first day's battle; but the
most remarkable part of it is that this
regiment, in the third day's fight
turned up with a little remnant of 216
men out of their 830, . participated in
th RUnt charge and came out with
only 80 men left Applause. That
M 409 m08t remarkable loss
in all history. There was a company
in that regimentCapt Tuttle's com
pany) that went in with three officers
and 84 men. Thev came out of that
with only one officer and one man.
Another remarkable fact about that
contest was the greater loss of officers
in porportion to the enlisted men.
Congressman Bellamy, after detect
ing an error in a comparative table
submitted by Mr. Warnock, took oc
casion to correct the discrepancy that
did the Old North State an injustice.
Mr. Bellamy said:
"I wofij, s you are aware, air,
from the Old North State, which has
for its motto 'Esse Quarn Videre.'
That motto expresses a striking char
acteristic of our people. But the
modesty of North Carolina will never
permit her interests to suffer, when
her sons are apprised of an occasion,
when even unintentionally- ahe ia de
prived of her merited glory. She was
tHe next to the last Bute to go into
and form the present union, and yet
so devoted was she to it that when
she once gave her heart and hand to
it she was the last State to
reluctantly withdraw from it, and
when she, with sorrow, decided to
break away from the old union, she
dedicated her all to the new Confeder
acy and became the first to lose the
life of a son at Bethel and was the last
to lay down her arms at Appomattox.
ana, sir, sne contributed more soldiers
to the lost cause than did any one of
her sisters. But she accepts the arbi
trament of war and now vies with
ier sisters in her loyalty and devotion
i -o her first lore, but treasures with
iride and sacred reverence the con
spicuous j part she bore in the 'lost
cuse.'
c'In the table of statistics that the
gentleman gives it will be found that
he puts at the head a Texas regiment
a3 having sustained the greatest loss
daring the war. Mr. Chairman, it is
a well known fact, that the regiment
that sustained the greatest casualties.
in death and wounds in that great bat
tle of Gettysburg was the Twenty-sixth
North Carolina regiment, which lost
90 per cent of its men and at its head
the gallant Col. Harry Burgwin. And
the Second North Carolina battalion
took into that engagement 200 men of
whom there was not one who was not
killed or wounded.' In all history,
Mr. Chairman, from Platea and Mara
thon to Bpion Kop there is nothing to
equal it for courage and endurance;
and that the future msiorian may not
omit from the records of time this
brilliant achievement never before
eq ualled in the world's history, I sim
ply refer to this well established fact
to day, in order that he may make up
a a accurate account of the valor of our
troops in that great and sanguinary
st. uearle. and srive the proper credit to
tha modest but great State that I hare
tag honor to represent and love so
w&ll." Great applause.

Savannah Tnrpeatlae Market at Its Hit h-
est Notch Yesterday Qosslp of
the Board of Trade.
Although there has been nothing
doing in spirits turpentine on the
local market for a week or more,
t 1 A
maiuy Because were nas oeen no I t
stock, those who have watched the
other markets have found them very
much alive and soaring upward to
ward the record-breaking point at an
amazing pace. In this connection the
following from yesterday's Savan
nah News will be read with interest
"The boom in the turnentine mar
ket went one better vesterdav bv a rise
of 1 cent, carrying the price to 62
cents, the highest for the season. The
demand was light,' , and factors had
considerable offerings left in their
nanos. the demand beine insufficient
to give all a satisfactory whack at the
ousiness. ;
"At the Board of Trade ! mora than
ordinary interest was manifested at
both calls. Members watched the
boards with an easrerness that dis
closed desires to be on the inside, and
while the opening was quiet and un
changed at 61 cents, the expected came
when the price shot up a cent at the
close, with the tone firm at 62 cents.
To those about there was an apparent
firm and advancing tendency, due to
the strong statistical oosition of the
article.
"After all. it's bound to come oc
casionally, said one man. What would
a market be, anyway, without a peri
odical boom?"
MR. D. A. TOMPKINS ADDRESS.
Way He Should be Heard by Yonag Mea
at the Y. M. C. AT Next Week.
f Communicated.
Some of the reasons why the young
men should hear Hon. D. A. Tomp
kins on the needs of better training
for the young men at the Y. M. C. A.
April 3rd, at 8:30 P. M.:
First Because everv vounsr man
that succeeds has to depend more or
less upon his own ability to do so.
Second In order to succeed at this
time when the fittest survive he has to
prepare well himself for the battle
tnat becomes fiercer in proportion as
the country becomes more populated.
Third In order to do this he should
learn the best means by which be can
accomplish this end.
Fourth As our sneaker teaches
from experience he is fully prepared
to give the young ideas that it might
take a life of failure for them to learn.
Fifth That as every town or com
munity prospers in proportion to the
energy and intelligence of its young
men, thus it becomes the duty ofevery
father and mother to accompany their
sons and daughters to the Y. M. C A.
auditorium that they may be better
prepared to encourage their sons and
brothers to a higher purpose in life.
Sixth As everv citizen in the citv Is
depending upon every other good citi
zen in order to help better their condi
tion, it then becomes everybody's duty
to see that every one attends.
That Revesue Law.
Capt J. J. Thomas, president of the
Commercial . and Farmera Bank of
Raleigh, is reported to be sending out
letters to all the bankers of the 8tate
complaining of the revenue law passed

them to Raleigh for a conference. He
says in his letter that unless something
is done he has reason to belieye the
next legislature will pass even more
stringent taxation laws.

Observed in Wilmington yesterday.
The marked features of the celebra
tion were very solemn and impres
sive services in the Catholic, Lutheran
and Episcopal churches and a closing.
for the day of all the banks, Produce
Exchange, real estate offices and many
general stores. With many persons it
was a day of recreation merely and
hundreds went away to the country
for an outing or for a season at gun
ning and fishing.
Good Friday with the church' has
long been observed as one of the most
sacred in the denominational calendar.
It is the anniversary Of the Saviour's
crucifixion and occurs during Holy
Week, three days before Easter, the
festival of the resurrection. In the
Roman Catholic church Good Friday
is a season of prayer for all classes
and conditions of men. thoueh no
mass is celebrated.
In America Good Friday is perhaps
the most generally observed of the
non-legal holidays with the exception
of Easter. In England and Ireland,
however, Good Friday is a legal holi
day and as such it is religiously kept
by all classes. In six or seven States
In the United States, too, it is made a
legal holiday, but it is not national.
In all the churches Episcopal,
Lutheran and Catholic yesterday ap
propriate services were held. At St
James' the hours were 9 A. M., 12 M.
and 6 P. M. The "Vigil at the Cross,"
or the "Three Hours Service," was ob
served at St John's church from noon
to S P. M. The members of the con
gregation who were unable or indis
posed to remain for the entire service
came and went during the singing
and most thoroughly enjoyed the
meeting.
A number of the private schools
suspended exercises during the day,
while at all of them shortened hours
were the rule.
To-morrow will be Easter, and re
gardless of whether they observe
Good Friday, all churches will join
in that celebration. A feature of the
morning will be the singing of carols
by the children of St James' parish
in the church tower. This service is
always very pretty, and will begin
this year at 6:30 A. M. t; All the
churches will have special musical
programmes, and the sermons by the
pastors will be according to the senti
ment of the hour.

very fine. Water from the ocean is
pumped and heated for hot salt

At Miami, the Royal Palm is recog
nized as equal to any of the others and
its surroundings considered oy many
superior, as the bay, ocean and Miami
