The annual meetinr; of the Uni ted Confederate Veterans at Hous ton, Tox., next Wednesday, prom ises to hrinir together an usually larre nnnihcr of representatives of the various camps from all parts of the South. Thi will 1)0 due not only to the desire to take advan tage of the opportunity to visit the rreat Slate of Texas, hut to the irrowinir interest in these re-unions. The Confederate Veteran now number about 000 camps in their organization, and it is believed that in a year or two there will be ji thousand. These camps corres pond to what are called posts in the ( i rand Army of the K?public, and include in their membership many of the best surviving soldiers of the South. The organization has no politi cal purpose to serve, and is not military in character except in a past or reminiscent sense. Its members h'ht their battles o'er again around the camp tires, and often contribute interesting and valuable facts to the history of the civil war, and they perform a no ble work silently and simply in re lieving the necessities of the famil ies of ex-Confederate soldiers whenever they are able to do so. I5ut they do not undertake as an organization to interfere in politics, nor are the' seeking in any way to promote their own personal in terests. These ex-Confederate Veterans, however, do not by any means be long wholly to the past. They are very much a 'part of the pres ent, indeed, and are representa tives of the new South of progress no less than, of the old South for which they fought so bravely. The same pluck and determination which earned them fame in war has carried them to the front in peace and made them leaders in the commercial enterprise and in dustrial development of their sec tion. The old Confederates are still lighting for the South, but with the ploughshares rnd prun-ing-hooks of peaceful and fraternal industry, and they are worthy of the honors with which they are al ways received at these annual re unions. (iOOI) TIJIES A-(03IING. London is again buying Ameri can securities, and the effect is felt not only in "Wall street, but in an improved feeling in all business circles. There is increased confi dence in the future. The transfer of our securities to London affects exchange favorably, and the fear of renewed exports of gold is dis pelled. The phenomenon of quick ened vitality due to the bringing in of foreign capital is a familiar one. Everyone has seen instances of it jn a small or large way, and our periods of greatest national prosperity, it is v.-ell known, have usually coincided with large move ments hither of European funds. "What produces this disposition of Londoners to return here the capital they took away in a hurry in 1S1: and ISO 1 1 It is due, ac cording to their own statement, to the President's policy and to im proved position of the gold reserve secured by Air. Carlisle's arrange ment with the bond syndicate. There is now no danger of the Uni ted States going to the silver basis and paying its obligations in silver for lack of gold. Not only is there no such danger now, but Air. Cleveland's declarations of policy preclude the possibility of a silver basis till l's'JT, at least, and proba bly forever. Foreigners, there fore, have courage to invest in American properties in the belief that they will get back as good money as they put in. THE STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY. Golds! oro has the honor of en tertaining this week the members of the State Medical Society, which convened in its forty-second annual session at the Opera House, Tues day morning. It is a representa tive body of gentlemen, one, of which North Carolina has every reason to be proud. The address of welcome delivered by our highly esteemed townsman, Dr. AV. J. Jones, did credit to the gifted speaker, and was responded to by Dr. C. .1. O "I lagan, of Greenville, in his usual eloquence. The mes sage of President Tucker was well received and die practical sugges tions mentioned therein were a subject of remark. Valuable and highly instructive papers to the medical profession, are read at ach meeting, and r.o doubt will be of great value to the members. The session, which is attended by at least 250 members, will come to a close this afternoon. It is hoped that this body will meet here again. National Capital Matters. From Our Kegular Correspondent. Washington, D. C, May 11, 1S93, Secretary Carlisle lias long since ceased to notice published misrepre sentations concerning himself or the Treasury department, but he had to smile when the story reached Wash ington that the Populists were mak ing campaign material out of the al leged alarm of Treasury officials at the purchase of gold bullion from Western miuers by the syndicate which purchased the last issue of bonds. This silly story went on to say that it was the' purpose of the syndicate to make a corner in gold and after the price had been forced up to make a raid on the gold in the Treasury and force another big issue J of bonds to replenish it. There nev er was a more ridiculous story con cocted upon a basis partially true. It has been well known that the syn dicate mentioned has been buying gold from Western miners for the last two months, but it has also been equally well known that it was bought in order that the syndicate might live up to its contract with the government, which called for the turning of so much gold into the Treasury within a certain period. There has been no alarm on the part of the Treasury officials simply be cause there has been nothing to be alarmed about. The reason why the gold was bought from the Western miners was that the premium at which it could be bought was less than it cost to ship it from Europe, thus making its purchase over here profitable to the syndicate. The contract with the syndicate stipu lates that one-half the gold paid into the Treasury for the bonds shall come from Europe and the contract has up to this time been kept to the letter. The last payments will not be due until next October. Ex-Secator Dutler, of South Caro lina, who made many warm friends during his eighteen years service in the Senate, left Washington, with his family, this week, for his home. He says he is now out of politics and does not again expect to take an ac tive part, but those who know him best say it will be simply an impos sibility to keep him quiet when there is fighting going on. Many shrewd observers believe that with more prosperous times ; there will come a radical change in ! the sentiments of a majority of those ; who now advocate the free coinage I of silver because they believe almost : any change must be for the better J For instance, two Democrats from j widely separated States Judge I Montgomery, of Mich., and Judge j Perry, of Ga., who happened to be j in Washington this week, thus dieg- j nosed the silver ease in their respect-, ive States: Judre Montsromers ''I think the Republicans of Michigan are fully as much divided on the sil ver question as the Democrats. Some of the most influential men in the Republican party out there are thoroughly imbued with the free sil ver sentiment. My own belief is that we have seen the maximum agi tation on that subject. I do not think it will be a factor in the Presi dential election next year, and do not expect either of the great par ties to make any declaration as to silver coinage, affirmatively or nega tively." Judge Bern' says: ''It looks to me as though a great por tion of the Southern people had gone crazy on silver. I guess they will get over it in time and will wake up some day to a realization of the folly of such a policy. Of all the people in the U. S. the Southerners ought to stand most inflexibly in favor of a sound currency. They don't mine an ounce of silver and their chief product, cotton, is valued on a gold basis on the other side of the Atlan tic. At present the silverites are howling with the same fervor that the disciples of the old greenback doctrine displayed, but a year from now under the quieting influence of better times their ardor may be abated and the movement may die out as completely as the fiat money craze did.'' The completed model of the eques trian statue of Gen. Winfield Scott Hancock was exhibited to-day to a number of prominent people, in the studio of Mr. II. J. Ellicott, the sculptor, selected by the Commission charged by Congress with the duty of superintending the making and erection of the statue. The model made an excellent impression on those who saw it, the likeness in face and figure of Gen. Hancock being specially commented upon. President Cleveland is uncertain as to when he will leave Washington for the Summer. He would like to go to Gray Gables when Mrs. Cleve land and the children go, which will be in the neighborhood of the first of June, but it will depend entifely upon circumstances whether he does. Secretary G resham has so far re covered from his recent illness that he is going away for a short rest. Things in his department are all in good shape, notwithstanding the many Republican predictions. State of Ohio City of Toledo, ) Lucas Coi ntv. )' ss FkaskJ.

Held the Rody for Inirial Fees. Baltimore Sun. The body of Harriet A. Turner, colored, who died December 13. 1S94, was discovered by the health author ities 3'esterday to be still unburied. Patrolman Moylan reported that he heard a dead body had been kept two weeks at 14 Stockton street, West Baltimore, where William Dungee, colored, has an undertaker's estab lishment. The health department was notified and made an investiga tion. Dungee had had the body re moved to a house at the corner of East and Lexington streets, where the health inspectors found it. It was then learned that the body was that of Harriet A. Turner, who died at V2S Whatcoat street. On December 20 Dungee, who had been employed as undertaker in the case, obtained a permit from the health department to bury the body in Sharp street burying ground. When asked by Health Commissioner Mc Shane yesterday why the body was not buried, Dangee replied that he was holding it until Vhe friends of the dead woman raised the necessa ry money to pay the undertaker's fees and funeral expenses. Instead of burying the body he had removed it to his shop, on Stockton street, where it had been kept nearly five months. Dungee asked one day's time in which to raise money for digging the grave, but Dr. McShane ordered him to bury the body yesterday in the Eastern Public Cemetery. Dun gee's shop was thoroughly disin fected. Health Commissioner Mc Shane reported the case to Mayor Latrobe with the comment that there is no law which would inflict a penalty on Dungee for keeping the body, but that suitable laws should be enacted to prevent such a state of affairs in the future. Drowned Himself hy Foolish Joking. Newborn Journal. A negro boy named Edgar Wil liams was accidentally drowned near the Dennison property at the foot of Hancock street yesterday through his own fault. Five of the boys had been out in a small boat swimming and on the return this bov threaten ed to overturn the boat as soon as they could get close enough to the shore. He was admonished not to do so as a small bov on the boat could not swim. Paying no heed to the warning!: put his threat into execution, the other boys looked out for the small (ne and saved him; but the boy who played what he probably thought was a good joke, being only a poor swimmer, miscaleulated his own powers and was drowned. The body was recovered and an inquest held The jury rendered a verdict in ac cordance with the above facts. Saved by tlieVick of a Horse. UiarlMtte News. The residence of Mr. M. L. Har ris, West of the city, was saved from destruction by fire yesterday in a peculiar way. Mrs. Harris was at work in the house. Mr. Harris was in the barn and his son was in the field plowing. No one else was on the premises. John Harris, the .young man who was plowing, was kicked on the leg by the horse. lie went to the house to get some lini ment to apply to the wound and as he approached, he saw that the roof of the house was on fire and blazing briskly. He and his father quickly procured a ladder and succeeded in extinguishing the fire. The kick of a horse undoubtedly saved that house from burning. GOLOSISOKO HAKKKT Kl l'OliT.

The correspondent of the Elkin Times tells of an old darkey who vo ted the fusion ticket, and who was promised a lot of sweet 'taters when planting time should come. He went over to Elkin to see if they had come, and he was much disappointed by not getting them; and he said, 'I 'spect dey sent 'en all to Mrs. Douglass and de children. I just found out what de word fusion means. It means few of de promises dey make you do dey eber fill. Blessed ar he who 'spects nothing from de fusion bosses, for he shall not be disappointed."
