Alexan- der Stephens, in the Georgia Legis lature. Milledgeville, Feb. 2,1866. Editors of Macon Telegraph—Gentlemen:—In Feading the printed copy of Mr. Joshua Hill’s speech as reported to your paper, our attention is called par ticularly to one paragraph, which, being manifestly wrong, we leel bound to correct. The part of the speech alluded to is in these words: “It is generally understood that you will make choice of a distinguished gentleman, prominent for his public services and his acknowledged talents, and regardless of his earnest remonstrances as set forth in the letter I will read you, force upon him, objecting and reluctant as he may be of this high trust. If you are really his friends, you will better serve him by loregoing the use of his name. 1 care not if a mail be considered as ptlre as an angel, under such circum stances he cannot escape a suspicion of encouraging the act. My attitude may bias my judgment, but I will stake my reputation that evil comes of the deed. But the fiat has^gone forth, and it is irrevocable.*’ Now, we take this occasion to state that this is not only an assumption on the part of the speaker, but in direct conflict with the facts in the case. The friends of Mr. Stephens, notwithstanding liis letter withhold ing the use of his name, looking upon him and regard ing him as a man whose antecedents would not only recommend him, but make him an exceedingly de sirable senator, not only to the Southern, but also to the Northern people, felt it to be their duty to bestow upon him this office, and take the chances of his ac ceptance. We state it as a fact that Mr. Stephens was not only not privy to this movement, but the first an nouncement of it was made to him after it was ma tured on Saturday previous to the election on Tuftsday, and that that announcement was made to him by Col. Ramsey, himself a candidate for that office—Col. Ram sey, hearing of it, with a patriotism which he brings from the battle-field and now illustrates in his defer ence to the superior wisdom, experience and fame of Mr. Stephens, not only retired gracefully from the field, but advised all his friends to cast their votes for that man to whom the people of Georgia, almost en ■masse, are looking as their senator. Col. Ramsey’s testimony, if required here, will show that Mr. Ste phens, up to this time, knew nothing of the move ment. Mr. Hill must now fall back upon his “yudg- meat, as being biased by his attitude We have felt it to be our duty to correct this erron eous version of Mr. Stephens’ position. What motive, we ask, could have induced Mr. Stephens, if he had de sired the election, to have taken the course he did, of writing to the Legislature and emphatically desiring that not even a complimentary vote be cast for him. That is not the course usually adopted by candidates. We state, most emphatically, that Mr. Stephens knew nothing of the movement until it was matured, and moreover we further state that many of the friends of Mr. Stephens, to whom the plan had not as yet been divulged, had determined, in view of his first letter, not to vote for him, thinking that his services could not be obtained. At this stage of the movement, those who had originated it, believing that Mr. Stephens could not commit the incivisim of refusing any reason able trust confided to him by his State, and regarding the greatest possible approximation to unanimity as altogether desirable, determined to address him a let ter putting the question to him direct—“Will you serve us il elected ?” that letter to be handed to I»m with the verbal declaration that we intended to elect him any way, believing that he would be the most ac ceptable man to the whole country that Georgia could send. Now, here is, sirs, a true revelation of the whole transaction. We have said thus much; we do not feel that we could have said less. We make issue with Mr. Hill again. The scope and tenor of hia speech are to the effect that we were « pposed to him solely for his loyalty to the old Hag, aod that his defeat was, or would be, regarded at the North as an act of disloyalty. Now, just here we must ask, what is the plea of loyalty set up by Mr. Hill ? What does he give as the evidence of liis loyalty ? That when the State of Georgia se ceded, he did not retain his seat in Congress, but va cated it by his own act; that he came home and never raised his voice in any public manner, before or dur ing the existence of the rebellion, one way or the other. His plea, to make the most of it, is that he preserved a position of neutrality, and he sets that up as an evi dence of his statesmanship and of lus loyalty to the Union. We claim that .Mr. Stephens did more than this. He saw the breakers ahead, the shoals and the quicksands, and, like a true watchman on the tower, his warning voice was heard but not heeded. Have we forgotten the memorable occasion wiien the gifted Toombs stood before the Legislature of his State and advised his countrymen to strike for independ ence ? Who measured arms with the great orator on that occasion ? Who dared to face the multitude cla morous for secession ? Who lp*d the nerve amid this torrent of excitement to raise his voice in favor of the then despised Union ? If you desire an answer, go and read the printed speech of Alexander Hamilton Stephens, which you will find in almost every house throughout the Northern and Northwestern States. Where was Mr. Hill all this time? A loyal man, forsooth; but accord ing to his own declaration not a word does he utter in defense of the Union. But more than this, Mr. Hill not only preserved silence at that critical time, but in the progress of events we find lmn h candidate for gubernatorial honors, thereby asking the people of Georgia to bestow upon him the ermine of office which would have placed him in official antagonism to the Government of the United- States. Aud yet he claims to have been, from first to last, a Steadfast Union man. Mr. Hill says he can take the test oath; did he not try to get an office, the obtaining of whi- h must have made it impossible lor him to take that oath ? True he was not elected, and therefore not called upon to take the oath of office as Governor of the 9tate; but it was only because he did not get votes enough. We must judge him by his acts. His letter of acceptance, where he takes high ground against reconstruction is upon record, and that will fix the animus of the man. But, Messrs. Editors, we will pursue the speech no further. What we mean to say is this: That Mr. Ste phens was not privy to the plan inaugurated lor his election, aud the determination to run him was based upon the idea first, that he was the choice of tile peo ple; and second, that he was the most appropriate representative oi the present sentiment in favor of res toration and pacification. Original Union men and o - ginal secessionists united in choosing as their common representative, the prophet, who had warned us against the fatal error, which we all now lament and are anx ious to correct. Instead ol its being an act of disloy alty, it was just the reverse. We knew that Mr. Ste phens was on the line of President Johnson’s restora tion policy. As you have given publicity to Mr. Hill's speech, we now ask a place in your paper for this vindication; and all papers, both South and North, which have or may publish Mr. Hill's speech, are requested to pub lish this also. senators : Henry R.

Stanton, Harl&u and Speed. 1 “ As the Cabinet is to be unanimous in support of the President's policy, successors to these three officials will be found at once. It will then remain to be seen whether the President’s policy or that of Mr. Stevens is to prevail. The President has ,no fears for the result, even in Congress. “Mr. Raymond, it is understood,will at once assume the position of leader of the conservative Republicans in the House, and Mr. Cowan, of Pennsylvania, will assume the same position in the Senate; and it is be lieved that they can, without difficulty, when the Pre sident’s purposes are plainly announced, rally around them enough of the moderate Republicans* to defeat, with the aid of the Democrats, all ol‘ the radical mea sures now before Congress, and to secure the complete triumph of the President's restoration policy. The task of protesting against the illegal and unconstitu tional measures that are now being rushed through the Senate, for in the face of such a decided radical majority, the opposition to such measures amounts practically to little more than protest, seems to de volve chiefly upon the Hon. Garrett Davis, of Ken tucky, Mr. Go wan, Reverdy Johnson aud Mr. Doo little.” (Correspondence of the Charleston Courier.] “Washington, Feb. 5, 1866.—You will learn, with much pleasure, that an issue with the Radicals is about to be made, and in a manner, too, that will put the President on high vantage ground. “A resolution^ to be offered in the House by Mr. Raymond of New York, declaring the views of the Administration and its conservative friends, upon the subject of the relations of the South to the Government, and taking the same ground with the Crittenden re solutions of 1861, which all remem oer, and which, if at hand, you can here recite. “ They declare that the object of the war is only to preserve the Union, and that when armed resist—»ce ceases the relations of the States to the Union should be resumed. “ This declaratory resolution will be offered as an ad ministration measure, or rather as the President’s measure, and those of his Cabinet who disagree to it will have leave to go out. “ The House of Representatives will either adopt the resolution or reject it, or evade it. They will not adopt or reject it. Adoption would pledge them to the President’s policy. Rejection will hasten a dreaded rupture with the President. Evasion is the only alternative. I have the best reason to believe that, if the House shall, by any of the Parliamentary dodges, get rid of the question, the President will then issue his proclamation declaring the Union to be restored— that all the States are recognized as loyal to the Union, and are entitled to be considered by Congress as States in the Union. “Moreover, I may state that the proclamation is al ready written. “After this coup d’etat the radicals, in their frenzy, will try to raise a storm. Perhaps Stevens will propose impeachment. But throughout the country Union leagues, with the title of the “Union White,” will spring up and carry all before them. “Mr. Sumner is speaking to-day in the Senate against the amendment to the Constitution respecting repre sentation, on the ground that it excludes five million of negroes from the suffrage. His proposed amend ment to the Constitution will, as you will see, carry out his great idea of the constitutional equality of all men. ‘•The politi ral radicils are afraid of the extremes of the fanatical radicals.” SERIOUS RIOT' BETWEEN NEGROES AND WHITES IN CHARLESTON.

Tlie President and tbe Radicals—The Im pending War—A Proclamation of Sou thern Restoration—Division in the Cabi net and a Re-east. Recent indications justify the belief that the dis agreement between President Johnson and the radical wing of the Republican party in ^gress in regard to the President's policy of restoring the seceded States to their proper relations in the Union, is about to be brought to a direct issue. That this opinion prevails in well informed circles in Washington is shown by the following extracts from the letters of the correspond ents of the NewjYork News and Charleston Courier. The information they convey is certainly ^Important if true.” While we dojM&ionch for the correctness of their state remark that sumption, i truth or falsil [C01 rt them with the simple nt with reasonable pre- ill probably develop their New York Daily News.] Washington, Feb. 1, 3866. le indications to-day that the .dent and the Radicals, which id the former has strived to ger be avoided.

Morton of the steamer Gen. Barnes, and from passengers by the same boat, that a serious affray took place in Charles ton about tbe hour of the departure of that steamer. It appears that a difficulty occurred between a couple of negro soldiers belonging to a regiment which had just been mustered out of service, on Meeting street, when a policeman interferred and tried to arrest the parties. Other negroes on the spot interferred and the beligereuts refused to be arrested. The policeman gave the alarm aud othetsr to the number of about thirty came to his assistiKfee, but the negroes having been also re-infoived, tne affair assumed rather a serious aspect. The negroes outnumbered and drove the officers away. At this stifle of the proceedings Colonel Clitz of the 6th U. S. Infantry ordered out the regiment aud com manded the negroes to disperse. They refused to obey aud began to pelt the soldiers, and we believe fired upon them. The soldftrs were then ordered to lira on th»* nesrnen. but 'being loth to slaughter them indiscriminately, they tired a volley over tfieir neaus. That not having the desired effect, the regulars poured a telling fire into the 1110b, killing at least four of the negroes. The tiring brought the rioters to their senses, and being followed up by a charge upon them by the troops, they retreated in various directions, and quiet was soon afterward restored. —M. Etienne D., living on the Boulevard du Temple, Paris, has just lost his life by an extraordinary acci dent. He was sitting alone in his office at night, when he suddenly heard a noise over liis head, like a clash of anus, and looking up saw that a large trophy of arms, consisting of a Turkish sabre, a Malay dagger, a toma hawk and other weapons, had become disengaged from the wall, and was falling. The next moment he received a wound on the forehead from the descending mass, and his face was immediately deluged with blood, One of tbe anus had divided the temporal artery, aud he died shortly alter.
