Official Paper of the City, t AS3LST GIICUlATiON IN THE 8 ITT AlDCOMTlf JIOmVY FEBRUARY 86, 1866. ADDRESS OP HON. A. H. STEPHENS. Wo !ny before our readers this morning the address delivered by our Senator, Hon. A. H. Stephens, before the members of the ledf.latnre on Thursday last, in response to or. invitation from that body. We feel con fident that the patriotic sentiments and pru dent counsels of the distinguished speaker will meet the hearty approval of the great mojnniy of the people of our State, while we mav indulge the hope that the lesson in polit ical morals which be aims to inculcate will net be lost on the country at large. HENRY ~s7 FOOTE ON THE REBEL LION. A New York paper announces the early appearance of a work by the redoubtable ox Governor of Mississippi, now residing in Tor.no^e, entitled “War of the Rebellion; or Scylbi and Charyhdls ; consisting of ob servations upon the cause, course and conse quences of the late civil war in the United States.” In the absence of anything more interest ing, we propose to lay before our readers a brief synopsis of a portion of its contents, as gathered from extracts embraced in a re view by a northern journal. As indicated by the title, Mr. Foote gives in this volume his opinions on the war and the causes which led to it. He discusses, rapidly, the politi cal history of the country from the settle ment of ihe colonies, and essaya to fix the responsibility for the late war upon abolition ism ,.nJ secessionists, alike. He arrives at the conclusion that the conflict was induced by the machinations of sectional parties which sought pro eminence in the councils of thetouatry by the agitation of subjects having no connection whatever with the proper administration of the General Gov eminent, llis discussion of political ques. lions i3 simply a rehash of what has appear ed iu the partisan newspapers for the last twenty years, and is therefore of little value or interest. The most attractive feature of the work is made up of reminiscences of public men connected with the “Rebellion,” some of which are ot interest, although shamefully diilorted by the spiteful temper and canker ed prejudices of the writer. Mr. Foote is particularly severe upon bis old political ri val, Mr. Davis, with whom, as he states, he became acquainted more than thirty years ago, and who was then a young man of ra ther pleasing aspect, but gave Slight indica tions of auy abilities likely to lead to future distinction. He says that the fallen Presi dent had no correct conception of the true cii nacter and dimensions of the war into wnicli the Southern States had so hastily plunged, as w«9 afterward frankly confessed in so.no ot bis speeches, and in more than one solemn official document, that Mr. Davis and his compeers did not believe at first that the c.inflct would endure for a twelve- monih, and were even weak enough to cal culate upon strong northern aid, which it is weli known there never was the least proba bility of their receiving; albeit ex-President Pierce and several others, whose letters to Mr. D-ivi.r have recently seen the light. had made secret promises of support, upon which be builL in part his hopes of one day wield ing an imperial sceptre. He alleges also that Mr. Davis was sadly duped by the di plomatists of France and England, and ihat no man of sound intellect ever supposed that either the French or English Government ever seriously thought of|embroiling Used iu a trano-Atlantic civil feud, ^he last count in his bill of indictment against Mr. Davis is, that, he vetoed more bills during his Pres idential career than all the Presidents of the United States put together from Washington to Lincoln inclusive. In regard to the Confederate cabioet, be gives it as his opinion that there were only two of the functionaries whose official quali fications were even respectable—the Attorney General, Mr. Watts, and the Postmaster General, Mr. Regan. That Mr. Benjamin L.J not the ability to meet the exigencies which he encountered in either of the posi tions he filled, and that the character of the government was seriously compromised by the well known fact that his reputation was seriously tarnished by bis participancy in Echemes of notorious corruption. Of Mr. Seduoa he speaks even more harshly; as serting that be did nqt possess one of the qualities needful to a creditable and useful perfbrniHuce of the duties which were de volved upon him. He was as arrogant and insulting to those who approached him in his official sanctum, as he was notoriously servile and fa Wiring to his own executive chief; and in the exercise of the authority committed to him ha pioved himself to be the most heart less and rufilaniy tyrant whom Mr. Foote ev.rsaw ia the possession of official power. He like .vise charges Mr. Seddon with official corruption and that it was the apprehension of exposure that induced him to resign his appointment as Secretary of War. Alluding to a curious piece of secret his tory, Mr. Foote says : Just about the time that I was laboring most the ten minute* rule and the sitting with closed doors, it was finally carried by a some what meagre majority in the House. Iu bis revelations touching the foceign intervention question, be remarks: The Act was very well known to me that Ur. Darts and his friends were confidently looking for foreign aid, and from several quarters. It was stated in my hearing repeatedly, by several special Mends of the Confederate President, that one hundred thousand French soldier* were expected to arrive within the limits of the Confederate States by way of Mexico; while it was more than rumored that a secret compact, wholly unauthorized by the Confederate Constitution, with certain Polish commissioners who had been late ly on a visit to Richmond, had been effected, by means of which Mr. Davis would soon be supplied with some twenty or thirty thousand additional troops, then re fugees from Poland, and sojourning in several Euro pean States; which latter force, when it should arrive, not being levied under Congressional authority, would be completely at the command of the President, for any purpose whatever. The great object of the author of the work is evideutly to make it appear that the Southern people owe a great debt to the United States Government for rescuing them from the clutches, as be effects to believe, of the most graceless set of scamps that ever stole the reigns of government and drove “deluded people” to destruction. He labors to make it appear that it Mr. Davis bad succeeded as the leader of the "rebellion, he and liia chosen companious would have ridden the Southern people as despotically as the Czar docs the Russians, but with no a tithe of bis ability; and that the South would not have regained its liberties from these “weak and unprincipled” men without another revolution. The American people however, are sufficiently acquainted with the history of the writer to judge correctly of the motives that prompted this violent assault upon the leaders of a cause which be himself bad espoused until Bear the close of the con flict, when he betrayed it by secret flight be youd the limits of the Confederacy. There is an old saying, that if yon give a man rope enough he will hang himself, and if Mr. Foote has not performed the remarkable feat, in his forthcoming work, it la either because the rope was not fastened at one end, or had not weight enough iu the noose at the other end to consummate it.

The Columbus Snn of Friday last says: "To the joy and gratification of all, with the excep tion of a few malignant hearts, the negro garrison, with officers, baggage and everything else pertainin' to them, left Columbus yesterday morning for Macon, never, we hope, to return. The only troops left here are the twelve whites under Capt. Howe. We hope that hereafter all will go on amicably as after the de parture of CoL Woodall's command. We believe the cause of the removal of the negro troops was the rep- i escalation ot the facts to the Government by our nu- iue Governor, Chas. J. Jenkins. "The negro 6oidiers went ofl shouting,and nearly all persons tell us, appeared to be under the influence of liquor.’’ Lauge Flhe in Apalachicola—Capt. Jordon of of the Huntsman, informs the Columbus Sun that there was an extensive conflagration at Apalachicola last Thursday, commencing about 8 a. m. It was ee timated thut night when the Huntsman left, that about five hundred bales of cotton and two hundred of hay had been destroyed. The hose of the Ma riana, the Young and a tug were kept playing on the Are, and at last with these preventatives and the re moval of the neighboring cotton, the flames were stayed. The wharf was thickly covered with cotton awaiting packing. How the fire originated ,n not The Recent Fire at Hilton Head—The Port Royal New South says : “Gen. Sickles has constituted Brevet Brig.
