Long- street, written to a prominent Georgian, in which he alludes to the charge made in a Mobile paper to the effect that he was re sponsible for the loss of the battle of Gettys burg. General L. says that as soon as he can col lect the facts and the figures (in a very few days) he will publish an argument and a map goiDg to Bhow that he was not responsible for this loss, and which will go far to place this burden on the shoulders that are really the right ones to bear it It is a matter ot national importance, and the American people will look with great in terest to anything that will settle this much mooted question. Governor Smith had a very interesting in terview with Mr. Patiilo, of the Methodist, and Mr. Leftwich, of the Presbyterian Church on the morning of O’Neal’s banging. It seems that O’Neal had hoped, in the first place, that the petitions sent by his attorneys, the pleadings of his relatives, and the presen tation of new evidence, and affidavits by them, would hare procured for him a commu tation of his sentence to imprisonment for life. It was his plan, though iu case this effort failed, that Mr. Patiilo and Mr. Left wich should ro to the Governor at nine o’clock on the morning of the execution, and plead for one week’s respite, on the ground that he hid not made his peace with God, and that in a week’s time they might be able to pre pare his soul for the grave. So, on the night before Friday, when Mr. Patiilo left O Neal for the night, it was under the promise that on the next day, bright and early, he would in person lay the petition for the respite be fore the Governor,. The next morning, learn ing that the Governor would not commute, they sought an audience and obtained it. The points made by the ministers were: First, that O’Neal all his life had been a lusty, vigorous fellow, wicked in every sense of the word, raised in dissipation, schooled in im morality and perfectly ignorant of anything touching upon religion, or the great scheme of redemption. Secondly, that up to one o’clock the night before O'Neal had believed so fully in the obtainance of a respite or a commutation, that he had confined his efforts to the saving of his life, and they bad been utterly unable to persuade him to address himself to the higher and holier task of saving his soul; and, thirdly, that in the few hours left before the execution (distracted, as they must be, with the agony of parting with his friends: and consumed, as they must be, almost en tirely, by the necessary preparations for death), it would be impossible for him to grasp the plan of redemption or appreciate or understand the great* change that he must make to be saved; that the complete tearing up of all his life-time ideas of religion and his deep-rooted indifference to heavenly mat ters could not be effected in the few hours left him except by almost a miracle. But that if they could get a week’s respite in which to address O Neal, daring which time he wonld be perfectly certain oLdeath'within a week, they would be able to save him. These strong points were laid before the Governor, and doubtless felt the strain brought upon him very severely. He believed, however, tint O’Neal ought to be hung, and he resisted all efforts made to obtain a res pite. It is all over now, and we suppose it is best that it is. It appeared at first glance to be rather hard-hearted in Smith to fail to listen to an appeal that came lrom God's Min isters, pleading for only a day or two in which being to preach God's truths, but a few moments reflection will show the inevitable bad effects which would have sprung out of his yielding. Hereafter, no criminal would have shown signs of con version until the last hour, and he would have plead for his week's time in which “to set his house in order.” O'Neal’s case was a very hard one: but Governor Smith did not bring him to ifc. It is a matter of congratu lation that G^brgia, at last, has a Governor whom nothing .o*n swerve from what he be lieves to be right and just. There is nothing that impresses the crimi nal with such fear, or nothing which deters the wicked man from felonious action with such terrible power, as the ceiiainiy of pun ishment in case he is convicted. Governor Smith is teaching this lesson very decisively, and if his examples are sylla bled in blood, it is simply because the case is desperate and a heroic remedy, is neees- sarv. CAPTAIN JACK. Captain Jack has missed a greut oppor tunity. As a grim and silent warrior, sitting like a Titan in his lava beds, fighting squarely against despair, and battling against the in evitable, he was a grand old man, and the whole world, even his enemies, looked on him with an admiration that nothing could repress. When he was finally deserted by Lis weaker warriors, and by treachery turned over to his captors, had he supplemented his noble course in the lava beds by a calm, dignified and heroic silence, and submitted to the halter with a disdainful stoicism, he would have rounded to a fine fullness a character that iu many respects has never been equalled, and in history would have been es teemed the compeer of the great Osceola. As we have said, though, he Jont his oppor tunity. Ever since his capture he has been voluble, telling any number of lies, and with au unmanly eagerness has bceu pleading apologies for his course. He has weakened, broken down, lost his dignity and his hero ism. And with the heroism wiped out of his character there is very little left to admire. Hence, with quite an equable heart, we shall see the proud Yankees pnll their revenge ont of poor Jack at the end of a hempen rope. In October Virginia will elect a Governor. The fight promises to be very interesting, as Virginia possesses a phase of politics pe culiar to herself. it will be remembered that just after the war, a scalawag named Wells was her Governor, and was said to be a very great rascal. Upon the declination of his term he announced himself a candidate for re-elec tion. In the meantime, thongh, the best men of his party becomiog disgusted with him had shelved him, and nominated Gilbert C. Walker, a Republican of Conservative stripe and fine personal character, as his op ponent. The nominee of the Democrats was Col. Withers, of Lynchburg. Finding that they could not elect him, they united with the Walker Republicans, and under the name of the “Conservative Party,” elected him by a tremendous majority, beatiug out the Wells ring in a splendid manner. The wisdom of this course was proved by the success of Walker’s regime, and the Conser vative parly kept well together. Iu the coming race, it proposes to nominate the son of Robt. E. Lee, aud the Radical party will nominate Hughes, formerly the editor of the Examiner. In a straight out and out fight between these parties, the Radi cals would be badly beaten. But a distracting element now enters upon the scene. Ex-Governor Henry A. Wise, who is a “straight” or a “Red Hot,” evinces some signs of returning aspiration, and yearns for the comfortable plush of the Gubernatorial chair. He attacks the Conservatives, and he attacks the Radicals. He wants a new party based upon certain insane propositions which he publishes. He say 8: If I thought I could succeed in opposition to both of the present organizations of the State, I would declare myself a candidate for the office of Governor immediately; but I am without a purse and without a press to con tend with the two already banded to make nominations. I will not incur the odium by running of electing the one or the other. But i if either the Conservative or Republican Con vention will abstain from nominating a can- didate Of its OWU, I will, as an ^pendent beats rat poison to dc . alll candidate, oppose the nomination of the other; I care not which abstains or which THE OLD WORLD. ™ E FEDEK ^ CAPITAL - BARRS BATCH.

Kimball have filed their petition in Bankruptcy in the Dis trict Court of the United States for the Dis trict of Massachusetts. Their liabilities amounted to $3,760,177 45.

I mean no other than the Hon. A. H. Stephens, the most wonderful and gifted man iu the coun try. And who knows but that right here is the place where the seeds of his ambition were first planted, which have grown so beau tifully and ripened so gloriously. And right here is where that good man of living near Danburg, died on last Saturday after a few" days illness, and, it is supposed from the following singular cause : Some days previous to his attack he assisted in the disinterment of a corpse, for the purpose of removal to another place of burial. The body had been buried some months,and was exceed ingly offensive when the grave was opened. Young Turner began to complain of head-ache and other symptoms soon after the removal, and iu a few days became seriously ill, and God, distinguished divine and learned sci- died on Saturday. He complained, during enlist —Dr. A. Means—laid the foundation of ' his entire sickness of smelling and even tast- his usefulness and his learning.
