Letter front Hon. li. 11. Hill.
Senator Hill has written a letter, in
rejoinder to Gov. Brown’s reply to his
speech, published in (he Sun, a few weeks
since. Omitting tlie preliminaries of the
letter, we give below its more material
parts:
Was tho order of the Governor in rais
ing the 12 regiments, called for by the
President, in February, 1802, in which
lie ordered a draft, classified that draft,
and deprived (lie men drafted of the
right to participate in the election ofthe
officers to command them, without legis
lative authority and therefore illegal;
or, was it in accordance with legislative
authority and therefore legal ? I have
said, and now emphatically repeat, it
was utterly without such authority; and
the Governor affirms Ihe contrary and
this is Ihe issue.
The Governor refers to and quotes as
his authority, the militia act of 1818.—
By turning to this act it is found to bo
“An act to revise and consolidate tlie
militia laws of this State,” &c. lt is
devoted to prescribing the rules for di
viding, training, officering and disciplin
ing the militia of the State as an organ
ized body ; and provides for calling out
this militia in whole or in dcluchteenls
to repel invasions, suppress • insurrec
tions, &c.
Docs t|iis statute in muj respect apply
to the call made? 1 will not answer by
inference, argument or epithet, but by
the plain lettty of the law.
By the first section ofthe act of March
Otli, 1801, the President is authorized to
employ the militia, military and navlll
forces ofthe Confederate States of Ame
rica, and to ask for and accept the ser
vices of any number of volunteers not
exceeding one hundred thousand, to
serve for twelve months afier they shall
be mustered into service, unless sooner
discharged.
By the first section of the act of Au
gust Bth, 1861, this number of volun
teers is increased to four hundred thou
sand, and the term of service to not less
than twelvemonths nor more than three
years.
The act of January 23, 1802, again
amends the first section ofthe act of
March oth, 1801, so as to authorize the
President to call on the States for troops
to serve for three years or dtiring the war.
U will be observed that, the distinction
between tlie militia and volunteer troops
is plainly kept up in these several lifts.
Which did Ihe ‘President call for, the
militia as organized, or in detachments,
or fov volunteer troops ? The President
plainly followed a. very plain law and
called on Gov. Brown for “twelve regi
ments of troops to serve daring the war."
But l will not, rest here. 1 will now
show that the President is expressly for
bidden to make, and the Governor for
bidden to fill a call for the militia to
serve during the war.
The second section ofthe act of March
6th, 1861, is in the following words:
“That the militia when called into ser
vice by virtue of this act. or no any other
act, if in the opinion of the President
the’ public interest requires, may be com
polled to serve for a term not exceeding
six months, after they shall lie mustered
into service unless sooner discharged!”.
The second section of the act of Au
gust Bth, 1861, is in these words:
“That whenever the militia or volun
teers arc called, and received into the
service of the Confederate States under
the provisions of this act, they shall he
organized under the act of the Otli of
March, 1861, entitled an act to provide
for the Public Defence; with the same
pay and allowances of said act, and the
same time for the serriee oj the militia.
-So again the amendatory act ot .Janu
ary 23, 1862, in express language is de
clared to be an amendment ot the pest
section only of the act of March 6th,
1861. . ,
Thus, not by accident but, as 1 hap
pen to know, hy desiyn, the acts of (,on
oress always keep in view Ihe distinction
between the militiit and volunteer troop*,
and are very careful to make prominent
the avowed purpose that the tnilititt shall
in no ease, be called into service for a
longer time than six monthk.
There are great and overshadowing
reasons for this rule, founded not only
in wise policy, hut in fundamental prin
ciples, which I will not now stop to ex
plain, and accordingly we find that this
has been the uniform and unbroken rule
on the American Continent ever since we
had a government. I can but regret
that the Governor of my Stale seems not
to have discovered the rule, nor learned
the principle. «
It is thus shown by the very letter ut
the laws, that the call was not for the
militia, and could not he for the militia
for more than six months, hut that ntc
eatt was in explicit language for “tweive
regiments of troops to serve during the
war.’’ And Governor Brown, in order
ing a conscription of troops tor the war,
under the name of detaching the militia
hy draft as provided in the militia act of
i 1«18, is shown to have done so without
j any legislative authority whatever, and
j “no act was ever more illegal. But
1 suppose the President had disregarded
I the law and called for the. militia -to
I serve during the war ? Can it be possi-
{NO. 175
hk that Governor Brown would have
forced out the militia during the war,
in the very face ut such express prohi
bition hy the law? Were it possible,
therefore, to prove he had such a call,
would his authority be increased or his
error lessened ?
it equally follows lliat lie had no au
thority. to classify the troops for the war
so illegally drafted, nor to deprive them
ot ihe righl to vote in the election of the
officers. By the way, did he detach mi
litia officers to command the twelve re
giments ? Yet if he was acting properly
under the act qf ISIS, he was required
so t.i do. Nor has he a right under
the militia act of 1818, to deprive even
militia men of the right to participate in
the election of their officers. But when
a detachment ol militia is ordered under
fliai act, whether by detail, draft or vol
untary enlistment, it i.s his duty to de
taeJi officers to command them, hut they
are and must lie the officers previously
eh eled by the militia men including those
detached.
And what a monstious pretension,
that the provision ofthe militia law for
detaching a portion of an organized
body for a given service by detail, by
dralt or by voluntary enlistment, gives
Gov. Brown the discretion to enter the
social circle, and look into men’s private
conditions a%d domestic relations, and
individualize and point out those who
shall be forced to serve during tho war!
So, therefore, if the act of 1818, ap
plied to the call made by tho President
for troops to serve during the war, Gov
ernor Brown did clearly violate that act;
and, if the act did not apply, his order
was without legislative authority. In
any view, “nothing ever more ille
gal.” '
1 will not permit myself to add any
reflections upon the character and ten
dency of these unauthorized Executive
acts. J have elated the facts and shown
Ihe authority. It would be easy to show
that Gov. Brown's defence is, if possi
ble, worse than the original act.
The Governor seems to think that tJio
term politician, as distinguished from
statesman, occurring in Ihe speech, \vns
intended for those in his category. 1
can only say I did not deem it necessary
to make a personal application of (he
levin. Since however, the Governor in
sists upon so applying it. himself, and
writes a letter proving the propriety of
the application, 1 will not trouble myself
to,join issue on that point
Tlie public, I know, will excuse me if
1 do not reciprocate the ill choler ex
hibited by' the Governor’s letter. 1 have
done nothing to disturb the- harmony of
the people. ,To promote that harmony
during the entire revolution has been
my great desire and to contribute to (lint
end by encouraging in the peoplp a just
confidence in their own chosen admin
istrators of the Confederate Government
who had been so rudely, so unjustly
and so persistently assailed, was the
only purpose of the speeeti delivered in
Millcdgcville. Having, therefore, a good
conscience, I have no excuse for bad
temper.
I beg to assure tlie Governor, also,
that liis vituperative criticisms are whol
ly inoffensive. He has employed Such
language so often and so indiscrimi
nately against so many who are known
to be great and good, including Presi
dent, Congress, Judges and qvfsn the
laws themselves, that, when he uses the
same weapons on one so humble myself,
i am induced (o conclude I have said
something worthy and'forcible, and am
placed in good company. Several hun
dred years ago, Sir Jolm Falstaif,
Knight, somewhat distinguished for do
ing many things of somewhat doubtful
authority, but for which lie always had
happy excuses, justified a habit rather
ugly ill itself by ileulailug “ 'Tin iw sin
for !t man to labor in his vocation.”
Should our Governor be threatened
with a little disturbance of mind in re
viewing his course, I commend the clear
logic of this high authority to his com
fort. |
1 can now readily understand why it
is that communications from tlie Exec
utive of Georgia, addressed to high offi
cials, State and Confederate, receive
neither notice nor reply.
The warm approvals of the speech
delivered in Milledgevillc which are
reaching me from gentlemen in and out
of Georgia, whose opinions I highly
value, enable mo to be perfectly content,
even if ambition had contributed to its
delivery. In view of the real purposes
of the speech 1 am gvatifie’d. •

Military Organization of tlie North olid South

T I," in the English and French Armies—
Nttj.oleon’. Rule with Conscripts, etc.
The New York Tribune has the follow
ing extraordinary article upon the res
pective military organizations of the
Aortli and South. It is significant, and
reviews not ‘only the military systems of
the North and South, and of the English
and French armies, but presents thconly
plan by which the effective, force of an
army in the field cun be kept up.
Foreign nations are astonished that
seven millions of Southerners, bnrthened
wit), the care of watching.three millions
of negro slaves, should have been able,
for pearly two entire years, to hold at
Bay twenty millions of Northerners. —
There is "one reason for this result de
ntanding more consideration than it has
yet received. The military system of
tlio South, though not perfect, approach
es perfection. Our military system is so
imperfect and irrational, that it compels
us al[ 'Le lime to oppose raw levies to
disciplined forces.
Military writers estimate that in an
ordinary campaign the wear and tear of
tin army by death, wounds, and disease,
amounts to one-fourth ot the whole force.
Say that we have 800,000 men in arms—
the annual wear and tear will be 200,000
men; and to keep up (he army to its
present strength, we must furuish’art
nustlly 200,000 recruits. Gpori the mode
in which these 200,000 recruits are used
depends the whole question of the effi
ciency of the army.
The Southern system is to distribute
their available conscripts among their
~ld re'dments, keeping each regiment,
as near as possible, up to its full number.
“Our many memorable successes,” says
President Uavis in his late message, “are
with justice ascribed in large, measure
to the re-organization and reinforcement I
of our armies under the operation of I
the conscription.” The Northern system
is to keep perpetually raising new regl- |
ments, and to allow the old veteran regi
ments-to dwindle away to nothing, till
in a year or two there will be nothing
left of them but commissioned and non
commissioned officers, all drawing high
salaries- To regiments of veterans we
oppose, on the battlefield, regiments of

panic-flight, and defeat 1 With disci
plined troops the worst generals some
times ,#ucce«d ; with raw levies, war,
instead of being a game of nearly pure
kill, becomes a mere game of chance ;
aud the best general in the world can
make no certain calculation as to what
km inen will >\ u> or whfthet they will do
any thing at all.
Both in the English aud in the French
armies, aud, we believe, in all European
armies of the present day, a simple but
more efficient system of recruiting,
which was first iuvented by the great
Napoleon, is now universally adopted,
livery regiment is composed of three or
four battalions, one of which, called the
depot battalion, remains permahcntly
at home in some garrison town, receiv
ing and training recruits, and forward
ing them as fast as they arc trained, to
the war battalions which are engaged
in active service. By this admirable
plan the effective force ofthe army in
the field is kept, up to its full standard,
and not a man is put to work at soldier
ing until lie Ims learned the trade.
“Napoleon,” says the historian,
Thiers, “paid extreme attention to the
organization of the depots. He resolved
to make the conscripts repair thither a
year beforehand, that, during this year,
instructed, trained amt inured tofatiguc,
they might be rendered capable of re
placing Ihe old soldiers carried off by
time or war. Excepting some regiments
of infantry consisting of four battalions,
all the others bad three, two of which
were war battalions destined to lake the
Belli, aud one a depot battalion placed
in general upon the frontier. ■* * *
lie incessantly repealed, that on the at
tention paid to the depot battalion de
pended ihe quality and duration of tbo
army.” At u -subsequent period Napo
leon, in hi- eagei'iiess to made a greater
number of bis soldiers available at once
in the field, reorganized Ihe French army
so that each regimpnt should consist ot 7
war battalions aud only i depot battalion.
And it is a most instructive fact that
from tlii period commenced tho series
of reverse experienced by his arms,
which culminated eventually in his
downfall, and that Thiers attributes
these reverses, ill a great measure, to
the subversion of the old, true, military
system.
The attempt to carry on war in the
wav we arc now doing, is as if a manu
facturer who had eight factories in ope
ration was to till two ol the eight with
raw liamb, and raw overseers, clerks,
and foremen. Clearly the best method
would be for him not to employ raw
hands al all, just as in modern European
armies, the raw recruit is Defer sent
into the Hold. But any sensible manu
facturer, if was obliged to employ
raw bands, would prefer distributing
them evenly among bis skillful workmen
in his different factories, retaining in all
of them experienced men ns overseers
and foremen. And this is just what the
South lms done, since tho conscription
laws came into force—they have drafted
their raw recruits into thoir old regi
ments. The result, is, that instead of
Fort Henry, Fort. Doueison, and Roan
oke 1 sin mi, they have Fredericksburg
aud Vicksburg to boast of. Instead of
following their example, which would be
a good thing, or adopting the modern
European system, which would be a bet
ter, we persist in rushing whole regi
ments of raw recruits, commanded by
raw officers fresh from the bar and trom
the counting house, into the field ; and
then wonder that we inCet with sad Re
verses.
Two hundred years ago, there was in
England much such a civil war as these
is now inAAmericaa —a war of the middle
classes against the King and the aristoe
racy continued. For the first three years
the army of J’arliumcut was almost
rywherc unsuccessful, for tho same rea
sons that ours is so, viz: it wus conatit
luted upon crtroncoiis military princi
ples. Then, under the guiding hand of
Stern old Oliver Cromwell, what is known
in history ns the selldenying ordinance
wus passed, and the army was entirely
remodeled upon more correct principles.
The almost immediate result was victory,
filmland conclusive. Have we not had
experience enough to teach us the neces
sity of reorganizing our military system
in accordance) with Ihe dictates of com
moil sense mid the lights ot modern
science ?

Military Arrests in the North.
The case of the arrest of the editor of
the Philadelphia Journal, which caused
such intense feeling throughout the
North, is given by the Philadelphia
correspondent of the New York World.
He says':
The conservative men of Philadelphia
are indignant beyond measure at the
outrageous and illegal arrest of Mr.
Bolleau, of the Philadelphia Evening
Journal. The order for his arrest con
tains a general charge of “disloyally,”
and refers in particular to an article
published tit that paper, on the 20th
iust., in review of Jell' Davis’ message.
The article spoke highly of Jeff. Davis
intellectual ability, which Jolmlj. Adams
predicted and Secretary .Seward dilated
upon to Dr. Russell, of the London
Times, it quotes from the New York
Times the admission that his recent
speeches in the Southwest wore crush,
iugly truthful. It quotes with an in
dorsement the following paragraph
which is a fact, the Tribune daily asserts
and wtyoiccs over.
“’l’lie war, which, iu its inception,
was waged for forcing us back into the
Union, having.failed to accomplish that
purpose, passed into a second stage, in
which it was attempted to conquer and
rule these States as dependent provin
ce- Defeated in this second design,
our enemies have evident]/ entered upon
another, which can have no other pur
rs,-e limn revenge and thirst for blood,
and plunder of private property.”
The article then credits Jett. Davis
with truthfulness iu saying that the
rebel armies are larger, better dis
puted and equipped than ever before.
It asserts that the present administra
tion is incapable of preserving honesty
in the cabinet V winning victory in
the field. It asscr<» what is notoriously
true, that Jeff. Davis w‘s» right When he
said of the emancipation, th;’-R was an
intimation to the North that they .'H.USt
prepare to submit to a separation, anu
that in the North there is a majority
whose Immunity reeoils from a partici
pation in the atrocities which that proc
lamation practically invites.
Richmond, Feb. 25.—Judge Meredith,
of the Richmond (Va ) Circuit Court,
has decided to-day, in a habeas corpus
case, that every citizen of Maryland and
every foreigner, who had once enlisted
in the Confederate armies, n.o matter
