CCMBBBXAND Gap, June 16, 1862.
To-day I see evidences of a mere hopeiul
spirit in tho appearance of my comrades.—
Humors are afloat thet ihc French govern
mont has recognized our well earned inde
pendence. All can now fight (if this be true)
with renewed vigor, and as that portion of
she cotton formerly sent North has disap
peared so very myaWS'iouoiy, wo can let our
new ally havo a million to send us in return
come toys in the shape cf guts and ammuni
tion. It has been a long night, but if day be
really breaking, what a destiny i3 shaped for
us! May there bo no more n : ght of bleed for
U3, but a long, beautiful, glorious day of sun
shine, ponce and prosperity.
I Could tell you some th;:g-. about our
movements and thoso of the enemy, but we
will wait. In view of the rumored recogni
tion, groups arc Been collected all about the
oa tap, and if you had the lengthy arguments,
pro and cow, urged by our boys, your short
could not hold them. The subjects vary in
somo instances, ior I heard near where one
group was standing, discussing the French
recognition, a dialogue as to the former
of a drink la Atlanta. “’Pon h»**or, gentle
men, iluhienbriiik^Mpii* 1 ^*^ charge me but
I cents.” “ —call Pali "Pat,
what doss Muhlenbrink charge for a drink?"
-Tin cints, ycr honor.” ‘‘There, you see; but
no difference—we have had no.’..': In so long,
I would not mind the rij? +i Hi-o-o-ouch 1
(stretching.) •*Bo-that nil. p ■ ycr honors,
ye want of Pat?" “Yes.” ufi, yer black
guards! it was to taze Pat yer Were! I tho’t
yor honor had so roduced the price that ye
would spare Pat a drop for nothing !”
Gen. Conscript is the best General we have
got, and is doing wonders. Great consterna
tion w£3 caused in a town not far from here,
by a fellow parading the streets with a large
placard on iiij back, “ Substitutes Mas Mix !”
True, theso fellows are doing an excellent bu
siness.
Our commai still keep quite healthy. The
sick have been removed to a place called
Beans’ Station, seme 25 miles from' here, on
the road to Morristown. It is a .delightful
place, and is under the charge of Dr. J. L.
Fish, of Augusta, Ga., and Lieutenant in the
Baker Volunteers. We learn that the pa
tient* are more comfortable, and have a
change of diet which is so productive of con

Rebel Raids Into Kentucky.
We havo before us tho Louisville Journal if
tho 5 h June, from which we extract ths fol
lowing:
This thing of rebel raids in Kentucky must
be stopped It must be. It wUl be. The pow
er of putting a stop to it is in the right hands.
There ib to be no ess vigor in Kentucky than
in Tennessee. The rebel spies with which
our State swarms, and the rebel burners and
murderer*, should be ferreted out and hung;
and if outrages on person and property are
evidently perpetrated by rebels, then other
reoeis, notorious Bymprthisars with outrsge,
should be made responsible in every case
wnere the ho’dmg ot them to responsibility
is necessary either to tne ends of justice or
for an example to rebels generally. We pre
dict that the time ,s at hand, and very near
at hand, when not a loyal citizen will be ar
rested in Kentucky, without the arrest being
followed by that of a half dozen rebels, and
no destruction of Union property be commit
ted without being.tollowed by quick and arn-
t>le indemnification from the se sure and con
fiscation ot reoei property. The leading rebels
throughout Kentucky who are encouraging
and promoting, and in many cases practicing
the atrocious policy now so rapidly developed,
can put a stop to it any day they please, by
the mere exercise of their influence, and they
must be made to know and feel that their
safety and their interest are deeply involved
in their putting a slop to it. Until a rigorous
and vigorous coarse oe taken, such a course
as Gen. Boyle is exactly the man to inaugu
rate ami boldly pursue, uo Union life cr Union
pcss-ssions will b3 secure.
FsvUt Memphis.—The Appeal of the 14th
says:
A lettei freru Memphis dated the 11th =ajs:
" The Federal forces have been but little in
creased since.you left, but they talk about,
and evidently seem to be looking for, large
accessions to their present strength, both cf
gunboats and cavalry and infautry. I am
told they are isnding large quantities of
general army stores. Ihey^ say 50,000 men
are to be brought to this city and sent to the
interior of M ssUs.ppi. All is quiet so far
is ths Feds arc concerned; but thieving,
garroting, etc., are of nightly occurrence.
purity of purpose as he is of true courage
and manly virtue. Associated with him is
James D. Thomas, a man who was efpeiled
from the Methodist minis’ry fer whipping
his wife and slandering his venerable old
father in law 1 This man Thomas has advo
cated on the bench, in open court-martial,
the sending of the Union masses of East
Tennessee to Alabama and Mississippi, and
working them in the field, under nego over
seers, and the hanging of the Union leaders
here! Justice, at the hands of such a set
of men, is the last thing I would expect.—
Indeed, there is more glory in being put to
death by such men than in being acquitted,
after going through the forms of a trial.
It is known to many of you that I left
home to avoid personal violence, aud wna
out of the reach of the mob, wao could not
find me, after repeated efforts by squads sent
out armed by that arch hypocrite aud wou.d-
be murderer, W. B. Wood, or Alabama. In
my concealment I was informed by a letter
from Major General Crittenden, in command
at this place, that he was instructed by the
Secretary of War at Richmond, Mr. Benja
min, to give me passports and a military es
cort to conduct n.e out of this bogus Govern
ment into the Federal Government; and 1
was invited to appear at his headquarters in
twenty-four hours, where be promised me
that 1 should be furni-hed with siid pass
ports. 1 was there within the time specified,
accompanied by Col Baxter; tho arrange
ment was made, and the company of Cnpt
Giilespie designated ae my escort. But (bat
evening, just before sundown, 1 was arrest
ed upon a warrant issued by that disgrace
ful specimen of our nature, Commissioner
Reynolds, upon the false oath of Attorney
ttsmsey, a corrupt man, for whom no decent
secessionist entertains any respect. The
charge against me was treason, founded upon
editorials, one of which has been published,
in part, by Ramsey, iu the Knoxville Regis
ter, and although the miserable man swore
that the editorial was published since the 10’ft
of June, at which time the State voted out,
my files will show that it wa9 published ou
the 25th of May.
Thus was I takeu out of the hands of a
Msjor- General and of his Secretary of War
by a worthless little Confederate lawyer, au-1
thrown into the. common jail of this county ;
refused bail, when the best the county uf-
fords was offered; and, up to this eventful
hour, I have been dj*mied a trial, aud an op-_
portuuity to defend w»yecn before the court
oonderonip«- ,ue to au ignominious death —
yn® proof of all that is hero charged wili be
found in the correspondence cited, which 1
have placed in the hands of a friend for
publication. It will show that these parties,
one and all, have acted a treacherous part
towards me, and have violated their pledges
and faith. Their perfidy and treachery are
absolutely disgraceful to their bogus govern
ment, if indeed such a government can he
disgraced.
Borne hostile reminiscences of the past, as
between other cowardly, mean, and murder
ous men of this city and myself, will appear
in the documents I leave behind; and I re
quest my sons to publish them even at the
cost of their lives. I desire to bear my tes
timony, even in a dying hour, to the perfidy,
double-dealing, and cowardly course toward
me of that prince of Lypocrites and great
embodiment of human deceit, Campbell Wal
lace, the president of tho railroad, aud one
of the great lights of secession. I wain all
men present, and all who may hear of this
statement, never to confide in that man.—
He is supremely selfish, notoriously insin
cere, and would sell his interest in his God
which, I fear, is not a very large one—for
money!
1 must also bear witness to the treachery
and insincerity of William G. McAdoo, who,
while meeting me with a smile and profess
ing friendship, etated to John Black that I
ought to be kept in prison during this war.
This man was on the verge of starvation,
and without credit, when 1 took it upon my
self to attend the sitting of our Legislature,
some years ago, and help make him District
Attorney. He since lost one wife, and mar
ried a second, owning a gang of negroes and
a rice plantation in Georgia, and has turned
over to seoession. I warn my family and
friends never to confide in him.
Fellow-oounirymen, I am shortly to be ex*,
ecuted—not for any erime punishable with
death, but for my devotion to my country,
her laws, and Coustituiion. I die for refu
sing to espouse the cause of this wicked re
bellion; and 1 glory in it, strange as you
may think it. 1 could have lived, if I had
taken an oath of allegiance to this so called
Confederacy. Rather than stultify myself
and disgrace my family by such au oath, I
agree to die ! I never could sanction this
Government, and I trust that no child of
mine will ever do it. Look at the past his
tory of the leaders and originators of this
rebellion. There is not a man of unstained
character to be found among them. Yancey
is a convicted murderer, who killed his uncle
(Dr. Earl, of South Carolina,) and, instead
of going to England to intrigue against this
Government, he would have been in prison
had he not been pardoned by the Governor
of that State. Wigfall, & Confederate Sena
tor and a General, fled from his native State
of South Carolina to Texas to escape the
horrors of assassination, became a collecting
attorney for large amounts, and then swiu*
died his employers out of tbeir dues, mur
dering as many as two men in Texas. Floyd,
while Governor of my native State, was
guilty of swindling the State cut of some
thirty thousand dollars of the Washington
monument fund entrusted to his care: while
in Buchanan’s Cabinet, in violation of his
oath, he stole, besides large amounts cf
bonds, the gone, forts, and ammunition cf
the Federal Government, to aid in carrying
on this infamous rebellion. Slidell, another
intriguer, who never had an honest emotion
of soul in his life, assisted, while in the
United States Senate, «c pass through Con
gress the great swindle of the age, the
“Houma’s Land Grant"—a swindle so gi
gantic, and a ehest so enormous, that the
next CoDgress revoked the grant. Benjamin,
your Secretary of War, and one of the men
engaged in deceiving aas, was expelled from
a New England college for stealing money
! and jiwolry out of the trunks of his fellow®
students; he afterwards got into the Senate
i from Louisiana by turning from a Whig to a
i Democrat, and became the partner of Slidell
ia—Tne Houma’s swindle. Thompson, the
i Mississippi member of Buchanan’s Cabinet,
while Secretary of the Interior, was a part
ner in stealing some Indian Trust Binds,
and, when about to be dismissed fer the of-
! fence, fled from the Federal capital by night
; to avoid prosecution. Cobb, the Georgia
member cf Buchanan’-? Cabinet, epetv.lated
i ia stocks, using Government money, and
was detected in it; and all this was at a
time when he was acjtiug under oa b, as the
he d of the Treasury Department Davis,
j >• r President, after his State had borrowed
miiSjns, ied the way in the work otrepudi
ating and defrauding Mississippi’ honest
creditors.' Toombs, the big man pf your
G-. vernmsEt at Richmond, was the fcnfede-
rate of Keifr and Brooks in their atfmpt to
assassin ite Sumner. Swan, your Cogress-
mau from this district, and an original se
cessionist, is the forger of the Job^on let
ters to Liwreuce, with a view to swiidle the
iaiter ou: of ten thousand dollars. These,
ah J a host of others like them, are (he men
who originated and are carrying onihis re
bellion. Ought not any honest man • ptefer
to hang rather than act with such ieu ia a
wicked crusade against the add swo^of the
best Government on earth?
But I must close Solemn thought! Idle,
wi:h confidence .hat the United Braes Gov-
i eminent will crush out this rebeilioi during
the coming spring and summer, hark my
prediction! i would like to be liviig when
that is done ; but I must resign nfrself to
my fate
I have a word to say, as it regjda my
family. I leave a wife and seven caldren to
the mercies of a cold hearted worldi l hope
the Union msu of the country willbe kind
to them, and seek to impress th^r minds

Sir—I hrve the honor to inloxtu you ih.-.t i
arrived in Madrid, accompanied by Mr.
Feam, ao tuo u.ws of our reverses was being
received. Alter waiting some titno in the ex
pectation of learning us real rature and ex

and obtained sa interview with.
"C'dlante'SV t'JC ■Jqm.'u-**; 1 ■*^ q r..ta.ry * i i...!,.- .. -
ff,Mrs, whose reception was kindand friend
ly I told him at the outset that my g -vern
meat bad been anxious from the beginning
to form friendly relations k ■ n rj.aiu, and
had sent uie in August . l :ructions to
proceed to this court, wh.< arrest and
detention cf Messrs. Ma^-u «co SiideJi had
prevented me from obeying a .oner. I stated
the nature of those instructions and ventur
ed the hope teat the object of my mieti n
might be attained withou too great a de ay.
After expressing hid gratification at my sate
arrivcl, and the assurance that I would be
pleased with the society of Madrid, as all
previous American envoys had been, he ass-
ed me whether I hrd any authentic actou
of our recent reverses, and rs pressed great
surprise that filleea thousam. Confederates
Bhould have surrendered without greater re
sistance, regretting the effect that auch a dis
aster was calculated to have upon the noraie
of our troops.
I told him 1 had no authentic information,
but had no doubt the number of prisoners
was grossly exaggerated, as from what I had
ceen in various American papers the real
number must be under six thousand; that
tbaeuomy was vastly superior in numbers,
aud the resistance of Gen. Buckner' a>: that
could be desired. I unfolded before Aim a
rni-p of the United States, and pointed out
the localities of Somerset, Fort Henry and
Fort Donelson. showed him the distances from
those points to New Orleans and Texts, elong
the line of the Mississippi river, wh.ch the
invading army intended to fbilow. and etated
that throughout this distance there were no
roads upon which the transports of the mate
rial of an army could be effected, witle we
had nearly three thousand leagues Jf rail
way which could be used fqy purposeaol de
fence, and destroyed as the enemy adthneed,
and that, besides, the Northern troops could
stand neither the heat of our summer, aor the
maladies incident to the climate. I exclu
ded by saying, that even without ihest nat
ural obstacles, I need not tell a Spanish min
ister that a bravo and united people fighting
for their nationality and independencecoma
not be sutjugated; the armies of Napdeon
gained many important victories ia Spain,
and for years occupied its capital andic-rt-
rcisesj out when she Spanish armies had
been nearly destroyed, the entire peopHrose
in their might and drove the .mpenst le
gions beyond the Pyrenees—so it wou|i-be
with us in the end.
He was well plesed wiln the aiiusionjaad
said he had no doubt of our ultimate success,
provided our people could stand the pdva-
tions which aV-rotracted contest would t iDg
upon them. He went on to say, that oi the
question of right he had no doubt it isclar-
ly with the South, as much as it had $een
wi>h Spain in the French invasion, or |ith
the present Qaeen in the contest with )>on
Carlos ; but the question with which for*gn
governments had to deal was a question of
fact, not of right; we asked to be recognied
as a government de facto; we must show, as
Spam and the Qreen’s party had shown, not
only that we had the right to establish, »nd
had established a government, but tba; we
had the power to maintain it against all ef
forts of our opponents, and, as thus far it
could cot be said we had made that proof,
further lime must eiapse before the Queen’s
Government could recognize curs. Contin
uing the conversation, he asked me what had
been the result of the interview of Messrs
Mason and Slidell aud M. Thoavenel.
£ said these interviews had led to uu re
sult : that the Emperor Napoleon considered
the disruption of the Union's?*! of its rising
us7y as a great misfortune to France, and
was, of late, inclined to hope that it might
be reconstructed; and farther that he would,
under no circumstances, incur the enmity cf
the North by taking thwiead in rec^MBg
us; while the present administration Fn^ng*
land was to a great extent, composed of ab
olitionists, and wanted the support of the
abolition taction for the maintenance
in power, deluding itself at the earns time
with the vaio hope that if the civil war was
protracted and the culture of cotton ceased,
ia whole or iu part, the monopoly of that
Btaple would pass from the Confederate States
to India, as a compensation for the present
Buffering of the British manufacturing pop
ulation. But Spain was differently situated;
her interest was that North America should
be possessed by two great Rowers who would
balance each other ; her counsels were not
tain.ed with Puritan fanaticism, and surely
she had no interest that the monopoly of the
cottcn supply should p*3s from us to Eng
land. Spain was our natural ally and friend
and her paramount interest was that we
should become an independent Power.—
When we were recognited, similarity of in
stitutions, ideas, and social habits would
form between us a more cordial friendship
and alliance than bad ever existed between
two people. He said he hoped it might be
so, but he would not conceal the fact that
Mr. Seward was taking great pains to con
vince him that the North bad always been
friendly, while the South was hostile to Spain;
that wbiie the North was their best custom
er for tbe sugar cf the colonies, and supplied
them with all they wanted ia exchauge, no
private expeditions bad ever sailed from
thme for tae invation of Cuba but invariably
from those of the South, aud that if the
Confederate States becomes hereafter a
strong government, their first attempt at
conquest would be upon that island. 1 an
swered that the representations of Mr. Sew
ard were disingenous and untrue ; formerly
the North, as well as the South, wanted Cu
ba. The North wanted it, and will ever want
it, for the profits of ite commerce ; the South
wanted it to make three new States of it,
aud thus obfaifi iu the Federal Senate six
more members, which would for a time have
equalized the power of the free and slave-
holding States iu that body. With the re
construction of the Union, the motives cf
the South would necessarily revive, but it
does not now, aud never will again exist,
provided that the independence of the Con
federate States is recognied and securely es
tablished. The South would then deem it
its interest that a great country like Spain
should continue a slave power. The two,
together w ith Brazil, would have the monop
oly oi the system ot labor which alone can
make intertiopical America and the regious
adjoining it available to the U3es of man,
and to a great extent of the rich products of
that labor. Nothing in the past could give
an idea of the career of prosperity and pow
er which would thus be opened to us.
The lime at which our recognition should
take place, was, of course, exclusively with
in the discretion of her Majesty’s govern
ment ; but coaid 1 be assured that, when
that time arrived, our recognition would not
be made dependent upon the action cf other
powers? At tbe time of the insurrection of
the Spanish colonies, the United States had
recoguizid their independence long before
any other power, and there is uo doubt that
the moral and materia! influence derived
from that recognition greatly aided them in
achieving their independence. Could 1 as
sure my Government that her Majesty’s Gov
ernment would follow this example in their
own good time, without regard to the course
of other nations ? To this question he would
not make positive answer, but simply said:
“ Spain, as you are aware, is slow—slow
er, perhaps, than other nations, in coming to
a decision in matters of importancee; but,
af*?r she does, she oa»ri«- ■*■*»*
*i» »ugai j to consequences.”—
He left me under tne impression that thin
goverumeut would not be the first to recog
nize us. I then observed that the Lhreat of
Mr. Seward that out recognition by foreign
Fowers would be considered a cause belli had
been falsified by the subsequent declaration
of Mr. Lincoln that he could not carry on
two wars at a time, and that if her Majesty’s
government had been accessible to such fears
it would not have reannexed St. Domingo to
the Crown and taken lead in the Mexican
expeditions; that those measures had crea
ted in the North deep feeling of hostility
against Spain, and that, while the recognition
of our government would not involve this
country in war, no delay would diminish the
intensity of this feeling. He said they had
no fear from that quarter, aud were fully
prepared for any emergency, as they had
done no act whicn was not ia strict conform
ity with the law of nations.
After ho had explained t> me the circum
stances which led to the annexation of St,
Domingo aud the object of the Mexican ex
pedition, I handed him a printed list, sent to
me by Mr. Helm, of the vessels which had
entered the port of Cuba after breaking the
blockade, and of these which left Cuba and
entered Southern Ports, and stated to him
the blockade was surely ineffective, both
from the number of vessels which had viola
ted it, and from the fact that it was a block
ade maintained by cruisers, and nut by ships-
of-war permanently statioaed at the mouth
of Southern rivers and harbors. He said
differences of opinion might be entertained
as to its effectiveness; but this was one of
those questions in which one nation could
not act alone ; and, as Eugland and France
agreed in the opinion that the blockade could
not be considered ineffectual, Spain would
not differ from them.
Before taking leave I handed to ?Jr. Coi-
lantes a copy of the communication to Earl
Russell, and his answer, which had been
, ublished in the Parliamentary papers and
also a copy of my instructions for which he
was thankful. He expressed tbe hope that
we might have frequent conversations to
gether, and appeared anxious tc obtain cor
rect information through Southern sources.
He was astonished that our Government had
not provided means for transmitting that in
formation, and requested me, when I received
any that was important, to impart it to him.
This is the substance of what may be con
sidered of seme importance in a long and
cordial interview. £ infer from it that the
Government will not act separately from
England and France. Offing to the enor
mous preparations made by the North to
subjugate us, I beiieve that nothing is now
to be expected from aoy of them until the
Northern Government is ready to treat with
us ae an independent power, if it be sc,
and the war is to last many years, as the
President intimates in bis inaugural, it will
be for him to determine whether it ia con
sistent with our dignity to keep longer abroad
commissioners, who he knows are, under no
circumstances, to be received or listened to.
I beve the honor to be, sir,
Very respectfully,
