FORNEY’S LAST FORGERY — CARD
FROM HOWELL COBB.
Under this heading the New York World
publishes a communication from the late
Genftal Howell Coeb—perhaps the last words
he ever wrote for the press—vindicating him
self from a most foul and malicious slander
concocted by that vile falsifier, miscreant and
pimp. John W. Foknev. In Georgia the char
acter of Howell Cobb needs no defence from
charges of inhumanity and uncharitableness,
such as those alleged by ike base creature
■who scruples at no villainy, no. falsehood, to
3-riifr the eharactejr of
to blacken the reputation of a political oppo
nent. But the refutation of the slander will
be read with interesi, as being among the
hist words of one whose noble attributes of
character were so well known, whose private
and public worth *t> sincerely appreciated,
- and whose memory ^vill be long and warmly
( cherished bj J the Southern people. S
t The infamnns slander against Mr. Cobb
was put forth in the shape of a letter, pur
porting to have been written by ’ one of the
“Brigade of Death” which recently figured
so conspicuously in the grand parade of the
■ “Boys in Blue” in Philadelphia, a pretended
' survivor of Andersonville. ‘Ivlins : course of
this letter, with many, other statements equal
ly as fidse and revolting, the writer gives the
story of a ybung man by the name of Cabel,
a native of Florida, who, at the time of the
, breaking out of the war, was a cleric in one of
rip; Departments in Washingtofi, and who
volunteered in the Federal service; was after
wards captured in Virginia B4rd sent'to the
military prison at Andersonville. This young
man was, of ,courpe, inqst.barbarously treated
and rapidly sunk under his accumulated
wrongs and privations. He was in a very
low state of health and on. the verge of des
pair when General Cobb visited the stqckade.
The writer says:
But when he learned that Howell Cobb was
within the vicinity of the prison, and would
soon visit the place, his hopes were high.
“Only let -me see Mr. Cribb,” -he said; “I
know that he will remember me, and get me
exchanged or get me free.” As soon as it was
known that Hr. Cobb was inside the stockade
young Cabel, with my assistance, mustered
i strength enough to appear before him. At
first Hr. Cobb paid but little attention to him,
bnt when he mentioned to Cobb of his
(Cabel’s) brother being formerly a member of
Congress from Florida, then it was that
Howell Cobb proved the human demon.
Again scrutinizing young Cabel, he said:
** Oh lyes, I know you, and know abont
your brother you speak of; both of yon
have proved felse to your Southern duties
—you are both traitors to the South, and I
- can only wish that yonr brother were here
to share.your lot” Young Cabel seemed
to stagger under these cruel remarks, and
as Ml -Cobb was about to leave, young Cabel
Appealed again to Cobb if he would not try to
get him free; could he not, at least, do some
thing to mitigate his sufferings—he showed
Hr. Cobb his emaciated arms and body—the
dreadfnl sores upon, his feet as they seemed
ready to drop from' the ankles from rotten
ness. At last Mr. Cobb said: -Cabel, I will
do nothing for you unless you will renounce
yonr allegiance to the United States Govern
ment, and, as soon as yon are able, join the
Confederate ranks—asyou are Southern bora,
I deipaud tijis of you—os' trouble me no lon
ger. ” As soon as Mr. Cobb had finished his
hellish words, young Cabel truly stood up in
the position of a soldier, and manly and
bravely replied: “Mr. Cobb, this is asking too '
much of me, and' although if I comply
with your Tequest I may be saved from
a horrible death here, I feel that I cannot,
for liberty and life, desert the flag I was bom
under. and swore before God to defend.
Oh 1-hb, Air.' Cobb, do riot ask so mnch of
me. And let me ask you, Mr. Cobb, if you
were a prisoner in'the Union lines, ‘and such
propositions were offered you, what wioald
you say if ”—but before Cabel could finish the
sentence, Cpbb, in a pompous manner, said :
“Whatwould I say? Why, if the United
States Government, nnder such circi
•*> vcti tea*
enough to contain me and my family, an
fore I would swear allegianbe to the Ui
States Government I would take my
by the hand and walk into the hole,
buried from sight forever." These ni
' exact words, not only heard by myself but by
many other poor creatures that were listen
ing, and talked over in many.a gloomy circle.
After-Mr. Cobb : hid - finished Mb supposed
brave remarks, he turned' away to leave for
another portion of the yard, and poor Cabel
-went back to our little cave arid threw hiinself
upon the ground, completely overwhelmed iri
grief and despair ; spoke duly of the “cru
elty of Mr. Cobb, how little he expected it,”
etc.
The harrowing stoiy goea on to relate bow,
after one more attempt of the young num to
crave the merciful interposition of ' General
Cobb, when he wastrathlegsly thrust asijde by
one of the guard; ho crawled to his cave and
died—“by 9 o’clock the next morning the
oily thing of that dear young boy was thrown
into the dead-cart"*
The. following is Gen. Cobb’^ letter:
New Yohk, October 3, 1868.
do Vie Editor of the World: .
A friend has just placed in my hands what
purports to be a speech of Mr. John W. For
ney, of Philadelphia, arid I ask a place in
yonr columns to notice a statement made in
reference to myself which I cannot permit to
pass uncontradicted. Mr- Forney read as a
part of his speech, and gave to the country
with his indorsement the following letter, as
I find it in his published remarks:
[Here follows, the. /prged letter in full,
signed “T. E. Davis; late 48th Begt N. Y.
S. Volunteers ] { . ■ ; ■
Gen. Cobb continues:
I desire, in the most emphatic and uncon
ditional manner, to pronounce the statements
of this letter, so tar 'as they refer to myself ,
an unmitigated fabrication from begimring to
the end. There is not the aligbfrfct pretext
upon whichit can rtet Neither to this Mr.
Cabel, nor any other prisoner at Anderson-
ville or elsewhere, did I ever use the language
imputed to me, or anything at all resembling
it No one who knows me will credit the
>t my nature or
inch less a
so cruel and
>y knows me, and
‘ " ed this letter
its were not,
could not be true.'' I make this unequivo
cal denial to protect my name in the esti
mation of thosewhopafiBEeMr. Forney, do
not know me. "Whatever else may be* said
7 ‘' * __
can in no instance be charged against me.
"On the contrary, I can say with truth that
during the war no prisoner ever made a re
quest of me, which it was in my power to
grant, that was not promptly responded to,
and there are those in Mr. Forney’s own
State who will bear testimony to the fact
Allow me to add that the statements in this
letter bear internal evidence of their falsity.
Mr. Cabel, the former member of Congress,
whom I am made to denounce as a traitor,
Ac., was my personal friend, and was with the
South during the whole war, and in the Con
federate army at its dose. If he ever had a
brother in the Federal army I never heard
of it
The Andersonville prison was never in my
command nor under my control, but the
guard employed there was detailed from my
troops, and this occasioned the three visits I
maria m it. On one of these visits I received
a message from a prisoner by the name of
Cabel, from Ohio, that he desired to see me.
X applied to the commandant of the prison to
have him " brought out of the prison to the
quarters I was occupying for the day. The
request was promptly complied with, and I
had an interview with Mr. Cabel, who was
quite an intelligent man, which lasted for an
hour or two. The interview was as pleasant
as could be. There was not an offensive
word said on either side, and at the close of
it Mr. Cabel expressed to me his thanks for
the manner in which. I received and treated
him The only request made of me that I
had the power to grant was promptly granted,
and he appreciated it, as he did my whole.
conduct and bearing towards him in ’the
spirit of kindness which dictated it. I have
no wish to extend this communication by
any comments.
Howell Cobb.
P. S.—Since writing the above, I have cas
ually met with Mr. Cabel, formerly of Flor
ida, who expressed the greatest surprise arid
indignation at the statements in this letter,
and authorizes me to say that lie had no
brother or other near relative in the Federal
array that he knows at
THE IMPORTANT STATE ELECTIONS
TO-BIORROW.
The elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Indiana, which take place to-morrow, are
looked to with great interest, as it is generally
conceded that the vote of these great States
will indicate the result of the Presidential
election on the first Tuesday in next month.
If the Democracy, in despite the extraordi
nary efforts of the Badicals, should succeed
in carrying the States of Pennsylvania and
Ohio on Tuesday by respectable major
ities, it would give the former a prestige
of success which would not only secure the
electoral votes of Uiese States for Seymour
and Blair in November, bat wonid be felt
throughout the entire North and West, giving
confidence to the party of the Constitution,
and filling their opponents with despair.
From all accounts, never since the forma
tion of the government was a canvass more
vigorously arid resolutely contested than
that now drawing to a close in the States
'which we have named. The Radicals at first
confided in the prestage of their candidate,
in. the unreasoning passion and prejudices
of the masses, in* the nnscrupulonsness of
their leaders, and in the potency of mis
representation and falsehood, are daily be
coming alarmed, distrustful and apprehen
sive of defeat, while the Democracy, strong
in the panoply of trnth by exposing the
corrupt misrule and falsehoods of the Jaco
bins, who have brought the country through
war and sectional discord to the verge of an
arehy and bankruptcy, are arousing the latent
patriotism of the people, who in alarm for
their liberties, are rallying to the rescue of
the Union and the Constitution.
The accounts which reach us from reliable
sources are most encouraging, leaving ns little
reason to donbt that the snn of to-morrow will
go down upon the triumph and the rejoicing
of the Democratic hosts, in assured hope of
the nation’s redemption. So mote it be.
THE PRESERVATION OF THE PUBLIC
PEACE.
In another column we publish the Procla
mation of Mr. Bullock, with the accompa
nying order of General Meade, haying
reference to the approaching Presidential
election. While every good citizen must
approve the adoption of measures having for
their object the preservation of the public
peace, and the protection of the people in the
exercise of their political rights, few will read
the Bullock’s manifesto without a sense of
humiliation arid disgust, that the assumed
Executive dignity should be so far sunk in
the partizan—that such a document should be
made the medium of an unjust-reflection
upon the white people of the State.
Gen. Meade’s order is well timed and pro
per, if we except the declaration that the
military, in the discharge of their duty in a
State governed by civil law, “will not be re
strained by the technicalities of the laws.
We sincerely trust that Gen. Meade will
have no occasion to override the civil law,
whi)e we feel assured that in “the conscien-
cions discharge of his duty” he will have the
hearty cooperation not only of the civil au
thorities, but of every law-abiding citizen.
“ Let us have peace.”
^Special Telegraph to the Press.)
Oie of * Forney’s many ' Falsehoods—
“Pennsylvania the Real Battle Ground.
“Washington, October 4.—General Frank
P. Blair, while here the other day, gave it as
his opinion that Pennsylvania was the real
battle-ground of the present campaign, and
donbted the success of the Democratic ticket
there next next week. ” ■
We have, says, the JNational Intelligencer,
General Blair’s own words of assurance for
the success of the Democatic ticket in Penn
sylvania. He expressed to all Lis friends
who called on trim in this city his undoubted
confidence that Pennsylvania’s vote would be
decisive in favor of the Democracy, and he
was equally hopeful of the vote of Ohio arid
Indiana'.'
The West All Right.
A private letter from one of the most intel
ligent, careful, and bestinformed observers in
the West to a gentleman in ^Washington city
contains the following :
Vallandigham’a election is more than
~ tie. Ashley’s - defeat is certain ; also
iingham’s. We shall,, at least, have our
kare of Congressmen.
“Indiana is considered certain. ,
“All looks bright in the West”
■ — MX .
Connecticut.—Governor English was in
Washington on Thursday, and called upon
the President. He says the vote in Connec
ticut on Monday last, as understood iri that
State, is favorable to the Democrats, and that
Connecticut will certainly give a large ma
jority for Seymour arid Blair.
The Albany News of the 6th contradicts the
story of the Atlanta New Era, that a negro by
the name of Walker and another were killed
near Albany a few days ago. The News says:
“ Since the Camilla affair there has been no
act of' violence whatever ' committed in this
place or anywhere around here.”’

Retrenchment.—In accordance with the
report of a special agent of the Treasury De
partment, says a Washington dispatch, furth
er heavy reductions will be made in the ex
pense of collecting the customs by dispensing
with unnecessary officers.

The Camilla Riot Report.—A Washington
special of the 8th, in the Baltimore Sim, says:
The report of General Meade, including that
of Captain Mills, relative to the Camilla riot,
was this afternoon submitted to the President
and will be given to the public to-morrow, by
the Secretary of War.' The report of Capt
Milk and accompanying affidavits, substan
tially corroborate the statements of the affair
heretofore given in these dispatches There
were nine colored persons killed and twenty-
five wounded, and six white persons wounded.
General Meade says the excitement in Georgia
has passed off with the riot, and no call having
been made on him, fhe Legislature, as ha
thinks, properly declining the request of the
Governor, to authorize him to make the call,
no troops were sent to aid the Executive.
The Porte and Foreign War Vessels.
From a letter received in Baltimore from Con
stantinople, dated the l'3th September, we
learn that the Porte had just decided that
hereafter no vessels of war will be allowed to
come up through the Dardanelles to the city
except those having sovereigns or presidents
on board. The letter also states that a Mr.
Rhodochanaki had just arrived at the Greek
Island of Syra, from the United States, with
arms for Cretan insurgents.
The Pope a Mason:—The Pope having been
lately making war on the Masons, these last
have taken a cruel revenge. They publish
the minutes of a Lodge in Sicily, containing
the initiation of F. Jean Maatei Ferratti, bet
ter known at present as Pins IX. This docu
ment is accompanied with a photograph, rep
resenting the snccessor of the Apostles robed
in Masonic insignia. ' ' r
Carpet-Bag Government.—Of seven Gov
ernors in as many “ reconstructed ” Southern
States, only two have resided South more
than three years. Of ten United States Sen
ators elected in five Southern States, eight
are recent immigrants. Of thirty-three Rep
resentatives elect to Congress from sev
Southern States, twenty-two are recent immi
grants.
About Cuba.—A Washington despatch says
the published statements that, owing to the
revolution in Spain, this government is in
teresting itself about the purchase of Cuba,
are altogether untrue. The subject has not
been mentioned in the cabinet, nor has the
Secretary of State expressed any views upon
it.
Mr. Prentice, in a card in the Louisville
Journal, of Thursday, denies that he is either
poor, or broken down physically, or that he
has been dismissed from that office. He .in
tends (D. V.) “to live and work out the cen
tury.” _
A Naval Battle in Hayti—Success op the
Government.—The following letter has been
received at New York, dated on board the
Haytien corvette Alexander Petion, at Port-
au-Prince, September 20, 1868:
“ The Alexander Petion had an engage
ment to-day at Petit Gouva with the batte
ries and the corvettes Sylvian and Iaberte.
The Liberte was set on fire and blown up.
The Sylvian was taken as a prize, but sunk
before she was got into shallow water, and
many of the crew drowned; also, two of the
prize crew and a Haytien general. The en
gagement was kept up for some time after the
disaster to the corvette. Two of the prison
ers were killed on board the Petion by a
shell. After the Petion ceased firing and
hauled off, the troops on shore stormed and
took the place. Trie engagement lasted five
hours. President Salnave was on board.
The enemy fired pretty well, but fortunately
did little damage. The next place to be
taken will probably be St. Marks.”
Pastoral Letter.—A pastoral letter from
Archbishop Spalding has just been publish
ed, in which we find the following paragraph:
“In their pastoral letter to the faithful, the
Fathers of the Council admonish them to ab
stain in future from certain fashionable
dances, commonly called waltzes, round or
German dances. Trie more effectually to car
ry out this warning, and to remove all pre
text for viewing such dances as harmless, we
have strictly enjoined that they be neither
taught, nor even practiced for recreation
among those of the some sex, in any of our
colleges, academies or schools, whether con
ducted by Catholics or placed under Catholic
auspices.”
The Election in Delaware.—On Tuesday
last the election for Inspectors took place in
Delaware. We are indebted to the Wilming
ton Gazette for an extra containing the result
in that city and New Castle comity. The
Republican majority in Wilmington is only
nine votes, which is a Democratic gain of 305
since the Mayor’s election last month. New
Castle county gives a Democratic majority of
612—a gain of 401 since the vote of 1866.
In Wilmington the Demoeratselect-n majority
of the Inspectors, and in the county have
twelve out of seventeen. The Gazette says
the vote polled was unusually large.—Balti

curred about nine o’clock last night in Pitts

sailed by a mob. A severe fight ensued:
Stones ond other missiles flew in every direc
tion, and clubs were freely used. Abont forty
shots were fired. Several persons were
wounded in the bock of the neck, a man
named McCann seriously. Mayor Blackmore,
in endeavoring to suppress the riot, was
slightly wounded in the arm.

A Supected Rape Case.—An official per
sonage, Dr. Jacob Dungan, now holding

Savannah, June 4,1868. )
The Savannah Gas Light Company, wishing to sup
ply Gas to its patrons on as cheap terms as may be
consistent with a fair return for the capital and labor
applied in its manufacture, and believing that the ac
tive business which may be reasonably expected du
ring the coming winter in this city, will cause an in
creased demand ; and further, that a diminution in
price will induce many to burn Gas that have hitherto
had recourse to other means of illumination, which
are more dangerous and less cleanly and convenient;
and that the consequent increase will lessen the cost o
manufacture, and thus justify the Company in making
a reduction in price.
Therefore, it has been determined, that from and
after the FIRST OF. NOVEMBER iftfcct, consumers
will be supplied at the rate of
FIVE DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS PER THOU
