We copy, from the Asheville Citizen of September 1st, the speech of Col, Means, made atXloniederate Veteran's Reunion iu Asueville last week, m a matter of interest to cavalry from Ca barrus and adjoining counties. C0L. MEANg' grEECH. Paul B. Means, of Concord, said that he was one of the privates. Gen. Can had introduced him as Colonel, but be was a private who got his receipts in blood for service during the war and Gov. Vance made him a colonel after the wr, by appointing him on his Staff. He told an incident at the Nashville reunion where he marched with the Confederate flag in one band and the United States 11 an in another, Some citizenlong the line of march who bad probably never smelt the powder of battle, objected to the latter, The speaker said, "My friend, we Con federate soldiers here spent four years trying to shoot down that flag and now we will shoot down anyone who molests it." Continuing Col. Means said : A hero of whom Asheville and all North Carolina should ever bt proud is Col. James L. Gaines, now residing at 119 North Spruce street, Nashville, Tenn. His father, Matthew M., and his mother, Mrs. Margaret L. Gaines, for years prior to and during the Civil War, lived in Asheville and are well and kindly remembered by 'Squire A. T. Summey, Mr. Eugene Bankin, Mr, Thomss W. Fatton and others. 'Squire Summey said yesterday, "Asheville will approve of all good you say of Jim Gaines," and other old residents of Asheville are of the same opinion. In May, 1S61, James L. Gaines, then about 19 years of age, enlisted as private in Company G, First North Carolina Cavalry. In a letter to me of October 12, 1901, he wrote i "This company was composed of hardy mountaineers, first-rate fellows fed fine fighters." That tribute to them, as "fine fight' era," from James L. Gaines, should be cherished by the veterans of Company G, First North Carolina Cavalry and by the sons and daughters of veterans of that company through all time. For that tribute from Col. Gaines is as high and good as one from Marshal Ney to the Uld Guard. I know whereof speak, for I have seen him many time in battle riding along the lines like a "veritable God of War" and in spiring to deeds of high valor, tne North Carolina Cavalry Brigade, when ever and wherever in battle he was seen by that greatjrigade. He was soon lieutenant and adjutant, On "a bold and daring scout," reported by Col. Baker on page 525, Vol. XI, Part 2. "Official Records of .Union and Confederate Armies, he was wounded. On page 720, Serial No. 44 of same Records, Col. Baker, Colonel of First North Carolina Cavalry, in speaking of the greatest cavalry battle of the war, at Brandy Station, V June 9, 1863, says : "I have the honor to acknowledge my thanks to my adjutant, Lieutenant J. L. Gaines, for his great coolness and assistance rendered me in reforming my regiment and keeping it in proper order to resist the eaenly." And in thinking of this tribute to Lieutenant Gaines b Colonel Baker, please remember that the First North Carolina cavalry regiment was as brave a body of soldiers as any that ever went into battle. When Col. Laurence 8. Baker was made Brigadier General in September, 18C3, Lieutenant Gaines was promoted to Captain and made assistantadjutant general of the first North Carolina Cavalry Brigade organized in Virginia, composed then of the First, Second, Fourth and Fifth North Carolina Cavaln" regiments. Official Records, Serial No. 49, page 707. He was also assistant adjutant-gen eral on the staff of General James B. Gordon and Qfeneral Rufus Bsjringer, the only two other brigadiers of the fayus North Carolina Cavalry Bri gade. And the fact that he was tbns retained in this position, so responsible in camp and battle, shows his pre-em inent worth add ability as avsoldier and an officer. But there is something else that showt it more and better than that. On page 1034, Serial No. 108, of Official Records, w?ad this : "GENKKAL ORDERS NO. 64. Adjutant ad Inspector-General's Office, Richmond, August 10, 1864. 1. The following Roll of Honor is published in accordance with paragraph 1, General Order, No. 131, (1863). It will be read to every regiment in the service at the first dress parade after ita receipt. . . (Battle ot Brandy Station.) Baker's brigade : Major J. B. Neal, quartermaster ; Capt. James L. Gainee, assistant adjutant-general; First Lieu tenant R. F. Fulgham, aide-de-camp By order : S. Cooper, Adjutant and Inspector-General." And by the same order, Capt. Jas. L. Gaines U again on the "Roll of Honor" for the "Battle of Gettysbuig" and for "North Carolina." "OfficislsRecords," Serial No. 44, page 775. And still there is something else in the career of this young soldier that sheds luster on Asheville and North Carolina. Very few men are commissioned from the staff to be a field officer of the line. But James L. Gaines was appointed Colonel of the Second North Carolina Cavalry, the Nineteenth North Carolina Regiment for widely, well known, con spicuous courage and gallantry and for splendid soldierly qualities and ability. In the history of the Fifth North Caro lina Cavalry on page 045, Vol. Ill, of "North Carolina Regiments 1861 5" we read this about Col. Gaines : "He re mained on the staff of the North Caro lina Cavalry Brigade until, for great gallantry in battle, he was made colonel of the Second North Carolina Cavalry, when W. F. Roberts igaa made General of Dearing's brigade. Every man at our brigade headquarters loved him and he was an inspiration to the entire brigade in battle. Gaines' ap pointment was no disparagement of any officer of the Nineteenth. They all approved it, as far as I know." The Second North Carolina Cavalry was as well-officered as any regiment from North Carolina and the appoint ment of Capt. Gaines, in this unusual way, as its Colonel, and the regiment's reception of him, as such, is a crown ing glory to this grand old regiment as well as to Col. Gaines. He will blush like a maiden when he sees theBe words of mine ; for, like all true brave men, he is as modest as a woman I mean the good, christian, virtuous woman. Women like the mothers of the soldiers of the Confeder acy. I don't mean the "coming wo man" or the "Gibson girl," the frivol ous follower of fashion of to-day ; of which, alas! tlie are too maroy, bo sadly unlike the mothers and wives of the Confederacy. I don't mean the women given to the "outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold or of putting on of apparel." But I mean that he is modest like those women who "wear the ornament of meek and quiet spirit, which is in the Bight of God of great price. After this manner in the old time the lovely wo men of the South, who trusted in God adorned themselves." And, therefore, we can say of them, "God bless the women of the South." James L. Gaines was a son of one of these and his modesty is like his mother's. AN INCIDENT IN NA8I1VII.I.K. Late in the afternoon of the 16tb of last June as the great parade and march of the old veterans was drawing to a close in Nashville, Tenn., when the splendid column of the old North Carolina Division, with Julian S. Carr, the good soldier and genial gentleman, as its commander-in-chief and bis staff, walking on foot at ita head, came grandly marching down Spruce street, with the swing of the old true and tried soldier in their Btep, one of his staff said to General Carr: "Yonder stands Colonel James L. Gaines at the fence of his home, with his wife at his side; please halt this column and ask it to salute him with a cheer." The com mand to halt was given in a clear, loud tone and those North Carolinians were told: "Soldiers, here to our right, with his wife, stands Col. James L. Gaines, the last great commader and colonel of the Second North Carolina Cavalry; his name stands high on the roll of honor of the army of Northern Virginia and he was as true, faithful and brave a soldier aa ever rode in charge or aided to make that army immortal. Honor him soldiers, as your comrade, one of the superheat of the superb, with three great 'Rebel Yells.' " The welkin rang loud and long with that old slogan of southern victory, tears filled the eyes of the brave hero thus honored and the North Carolinians moved on thankful that their last act in Nashville was thw to hgnor one of "the bravest of the brave." Col. Gaines lost his arm at the bat tle of Chamberlain -Run, March 3i, 1865, th last great decisive victory of the war, when North Carolina Cavalry drove back two miles from their works General Sheridan's splendid cavalry to Dinwiddie court bouse. He is nnw one of the great "Captains of industry" in the iron works at South Pittsburg, Tenn. A great success in peace, as he was in war. God bless Col. Gaines and his good wife.

Self-conceit is self-deceit. RECKLESS GUNNER. Baltimore Sun. . As the fall approaches there is a nat ural impluse among men and boys to get a gun and take to the woods and fields. It is well therefor that the game wardens throughout the Slate and public spirited citizens generally should be on the alert to see that the laws for the protection of songbirds are enforoed. A boy with a gun will fire away at anything that has feathers, from a turkey buzzard to a humming bird. Their desire and instinct is to kill just for the pleasure of killing, and this work of wanton destruction should be prevented, if it is possible. Most of the songbirds are protected by law and it is the duty of the game warden ant his deputies in the various counties to enforce the law. It is, indeed, of more practical importance to protect the songEirds than the game birds. The feathered songaU rs not only delight the eye and the ear and help to make country life delightful, but they are the most valuable assistant to the farmer, the fruit grower and the gardener. The insects upon which the songbirds feed are extremely destructive, and it is due to the slaughter of the birds that these pests have been so much more injurious in lucent years. In some parts of the State the laws to protect the songsters have been enforced and the result is at once perceptible, in the increase in the number of birds and their lameness. It is said that as soon as the shooting of them ceased the obbins an other small birds began to appear in the yards' and gardens of the larger towns. It is useless to enact laws unless public sen timent approves and enforces tbem. There certainly is a strong sentimental interest in saving the small birds from slaughter, although it is doubtful whether the tillers of the soil fully ap preciate their value or the injury thai would be caused to 'their interests by the extermination of these allies. If they did they would take more active measures to keep shotguns off their property unless they are in the hands of responsible' iersi)liB wbo.can be trust ed not to shoot merely for the pleHstKe of destroying life. The pleasure and cheerfulness of a country home, and indeed of one in the town which has grounds around it, can be greatly en hanced by placing boxes in the porches or trees for the wrens and other small birds. It is a pity that this practice is not more general. It is hardly necessary to observe that in public spirit, in their love of birds and of all beautiful sights and sounds, women take the lead of men. It would be greatly to the public benefit, there fore, if the women throughout the State would enlist in the cause of the birds, and then, indeed, the air would blossom with their beautiful plumage and would be made vocal with their sweet music. And, above all things, they should begin by discountenancing the slaughter of the songbirds for mil linery use. Especially should an effort be made to protect the birds in the sec tion adjacent to the city. It is a country of market gardens and beauti ful suburban homes. The birds are needed in the gardens to destroy the insects and they contribute greatly to the pleasure of the city people who go to the country for the summer. To the appreciative and observant people who dwell all the year in the country the birds are a constant delight. Many country people take pleasure in feeding such birds as remain with us all the winter and approach the dwellings. No English sparrow need apply. A Woman Without Hands or Peel. Gastonla Gazette.

Womaa Aadltor Took Him la Task tor Rrsclna Tka Other aide. Waxhaw Enterprise. A young clergyman, whoevidently knows how to keep the commercial iedea prominently to the front, was sud denly taken aback by a female mem ber oWiis congregation at the Antiocb camp-meeting recently. At the very beginning of the service the young minister took occasion to re mind the people that it takes money to run a camp meeting and called for sub scriptjjjrJs. Who would give five dol lars? Who would give two dollars and fifty cents? Who would give one dol lar? Who would give fifty cents ? The coin of the realm was not pour ing into the treasury of the church, and in fact the collection was becoming a dead drag. The young minister wore an impatient look and then broke out in a strong appeal to the people to give. Just then a dignified and fairly well dressed lady back in the congregation rose to her feet and beckoned to the minister that she wished to speak. Per mission was gladly given. ' The congre gation was large, and everyone leaned forward with much expectancy to hear what the lady bad to say. In a distinct and firm tone of voice she informed the minister and every body else in a very few words that she bad come to church to hear preaching and not to listen to a preacher beg for money when he should be breakiug the bread of life to a dying congregation of people. x , She said that begging on such ao casions had become a nuisance as for herself she was tired of it. She added thai her husband had enough money to support all the preachers in this part of the country, but that he was not go ing to give it to beggars. The young preacher was so com pletely taken aback that he sat down and looked pale and careworn. It was several minutes before the service pro ceeded in good order, and nothing fur ther was said about money. ..JIt is all well enough to criticise the Dreacbief AilJjfCirine, but it would be interesting to know whether-bifiJeople did not make it necessary for him to beg. It will be noticed that the woman critic boasted that her husband had enough money to support all the preachers, but there is no evidence that he gave to their support. Possibly his failure to do so forced the begging. To most preachers it is doubtless more hu initiating to beg money than it is an noying to the begging. Therefore, is up to the congregations to make beg ging unnecessary. Definition ot "ajsnpelbr." The staff on which trouble leans.
