A Graceful Reply.
The News re-published some days since
a letter from Messrs. Black, Star & Frost,
of New York, addressed to Major Thomas
G. Jones, of Montgomery, Ala., present
ing to him a silver eup, “the gift of a
lady who does not desire her name men
tioned.” The following is the reply of
Major Jones, upon which the Courier.
Journal very justly remarks that “such
items are valuable in counteracting the
efforts being made to re-kinille the pas
sions of the war in the North” :
Montgomery, Ala , Aug. 2G, 1874.
Messrs. Black, Star ifi Frost, New York :
Gentlemen: The valued testimonial
(“from a lady who does not desire her
name mentioned”) sent by you through
the Ladies’ Memorial Association of this
city, has been received.
The words to which the lady so kindly
alludes, it is true, were uttered by my
lips on “Memorial Day,” but the thought
welled up spontaneously from every true
heart which that day mourned the war
riors who wore the gray. 1 gratefully
accept the beautiful gift as a tribute to
the sentiment, rather than any mere com
pliment to myself.
No holier plea for peace and reconcil
iation could rise to heaven or touch the
hearts of, men than the sight of a mother,
widowed and bereft of her sons,”
sweetly communing in tho sorrows of
those who were foes to her dead. Nor
could there he more delicate and tender
token of sympathy than where the heart,
prompting Christian consolation, hides
the gentle hand which tenders it.
The reflection that my words, (mere
echoes of every honest Southern soldier’s
feelings.) should have fallen like a balm
on the wounded spirit of a Northern
mother, bereaved by our arms, has filled
me with a sense of intense gratification—
a gratification which could not bo height
ened by any honors I could w’n.
God permitted the storm to lash about
us, and none of either section who fol
lowed cherished convictions into battle
can regret it; but we may do much to as
suage the bitterness of the past. Noth
ing would give more joy to the soldiers
of the South than to heal all the wounds
of that unhappy struggle.
Please convey to tho lady my most
heartfelt and grateful thanks, with the
expression of the hope that some day I
may know her. Yours truly,
Thos. G. Jones.
The Montgomery, Alabama, Advertiser
and Mail, republishes the foregoing, and
says:
“We, who were ourselves soldiers of
the Tost cause,’ bear cheerful testimony
to tho fact that Maj. Jones, in his speech
as also in this letter, ‘re echoed the senti
ments of every honest Southern soldier’s
heart.’ ”
\ Little Girl Outraged at a Camp-
Meetino on the Sabbath Day.—Last
Sunday morning, when the assemblage
of worshippers at Bond’s camp ground,
five miles west of Blountville, had as
sembled for service, throe little girls,
daughters of Wm. A. Boy, ventured into
the woods a very few paces from the en
campment-, and were followed by a young
man named James Cox, aged seventeen,
who caught one of them aged nine years,
and proceeded to violate her person.
Her cries-and those of her little sisters
called to their aid Messrs. Beattie, Mul
lins and Andrew Snapp, who caught him
in the very act, and caused him to desist
by throwing a rock, which came within
a few inches of killing him. He was im
mediately placed under strong guard and
held for trial. The unspeakable boldness
and atrocity of the crime aroused the
wildest excitement among the thousands
wbo were there present, and came near
terminating the services. The little girl
is a child of one of our most estimable
Sullivan county citizens, mid the devil
who was outraging her, is the son of
respectable parents. It may as wen be
accepted as a fact, that the sweet little
girls we fondled on our knees, are not
safe from the blasphemous bipeds which
walk boldly in our midst, and society
owes it to them that these devils should
be made to suffer death on the spot. Cox
was caught with difficulty, and offered
$100 to bo set at liberty.—Bristol ( Va.)

A Fourteen-Year-Old Boy Hangs
Himself.—In Peoria, HI., last Friday
morning, the attention of the police was
called to an almost unbearable stench
proceeding from the insurance and law
office of Carson & McFarland, on South
Adams street. Both these gentlemen had
been out of the city some days and their
office closed. On breaking inthe doore
a horrible sight met the view. Suspend
ed by a slender cord from a hinge in the
office door hung tho body of Herman
Niehaus, a young lad about fourteen years
old, employed by the firm as a copying
clerk. The body was bloated and decom
posed. and had probably been hanging
there several days. Niehaus had been
left in charge of the office, and had prob
ably hanged himself in the manner de-
scribed after tho departure of his em
ployers. No possible cause can be as
signed for the act.
British Shipping.—The number of reg
istered vessels on the registry of the Brit
ish Empire at the close of the year 18id
was 3G.825, with an aggregnte °,
7,294,230 tons, and manned by 330,bw
men. The numbers were constituted as
follows: United Kingdom, 24,873 vessels
of 5.73G.3G8 tons; Channel Islands, boo
vessels of G8,794 tons; British Planta
tions, 11.2G4 vessels of 1,489,009 tons.
The number of ships is a 11 fewer than
in the preceding year, but the tonnage

GENERAL JOE JOHNSTON.
A Word from tlie Rank-and-Filc.
FLORIDA POLITICS.
Meeting of the Conservative, of Putnam
County.
Sanford, Fla., September 12.
Editor Morning News:
I have had lying in an old box for some
years the files of a newspaper that was
published during “the war,” partly in
the camp, partly here, partly there, as
the movements of our armies enforced
changes of “ base and place.” This news
paper was managed for a large portion of
tho time of its issue by a gentleman high
in the confidence of his fellow-soldiers,
and always enjoying the trust and esteem
of the commander of the army with
which he stayed, whose hardships and
perils he shared; and -the gentleman’s
services to his country, in certain delicate’
and dangerous operations appertaining to
the secret service, will not be forgotten
by his brethren-in-arms whose rank and
place entitled them to be informed in the
matter.
Well, in looking through these files
lately, I found the print of General John
ston’s report of the Georgia campaign.
That report awakened certain memories,
and suggested certain reflections concern
ing the discussion General Johnston’s
book has elicited touching the conduct
and issue of that campaign.
It seemed tome that since critics,review
ers, carpers and croakers, military and
non-military, officers of rank and promi
nent men in civil life, ex-Confederates
and ex-Federals, friends and enemies,
Mr. Davis’ partisans and General Hood’s
partisans—all have had their “say” about
General Johnston’s book and General
Johnston’s status as a soldier. I say it
seems to me that after all these have spo
ken, it would not be out of placo for the
News, which is par excellence the spokes
man for us ex-Confederates, to allow one
of the rank-and-Jile , a subaltern officer,
to say something about thejecling of the
army towards Generals Johnston and Hood
respectively.
1 was the poorest and humblest soldier
in a command that never failed to do
more than it wa3 ordered. I can appeal
to tho illustrious and immortal Johnston
himself, (and to General Hood with equal
confidence)—that Cockrell’s Missourians
were of his own, “called and chosen and
faithful,” and that they did not desert or
straggle or waver in fight. There were
no conscripts in our regiments; our men
were the ^soldiers of Oak Hills, who
gathered under the Grizzly Bears early
in 18G1.
On that morning, at Cassville, when
General Johnston issued his battle ordor
that rang of antiquity, no chief ever
more wholly possessed the trust and ven
eration of his soldiers. He had these all
the time; he claimed them at Dalton; he
deepened his hold with each day’s march;
more and ever he grexv in the devotion and
honor of his men. Could it be otherwise ?
Could the humblest soldier fail to see
that he handled that army as it had never
before been handled ? What a demoral
ized, disorganized, discontented force
Bragg left behind him ! How quickly
and how well did Johnston re order and
re-make it into a vigorous, compact,
hopeful, enthusiastic army! How soon
every department, every branch of the
service felt the hand of the master.'
Quartermasters, ordnance officers, caval
ry, infantry—all felt there was a new
power in command!
Little fuss and feathers, less than
there had ever been; fewer fancy staff
officers, less red-tape and big talk, were
at headquarters. Was all this great
change in the Army of Tennessee made
only by the magic of a great name ? .or
was it the magic of a great mind that
wrought tho transformation ? As we
moved from Cassville to Atlanta in that
wonderful, easy, orderly retreat, burning
no stores,abandoning no artillery, burying,
our own dead and sending off our wound
ed, finding lines and often works of de
fense ready for us as we fell back on
them, the faith of the men in their
General waxed stronger and deeper. I
speak for these I fought with. En pas
sant, that Johnston’s corps commanders
decidedly opposed an attack on Cassville,
was positively declared by General J. at
the time, and was never in any way
questioned until General Hood, at this
very, very late day, has intimated the
Contrary.
But the evil day came. Stupefied, in
credulous, amazed, the men heard of
Johnston's removal. Those fights at At
lanta, those dreadful, bloody, ruinous
attacks began the work of demoraliza
tion in earnest; and though the older and
better troops fought as was their wont at
Altoona and Franklin, the spirit of the
army was broken, and defeat was an
ticipated.
Now, sir, Mr. Ben Hill’s irresponsible
statement that General Lee approved-of
Johnston’s removal, was suffered to enter
the record of the Historical Society. I
suppose it is not the private soldiers and
petty officers who are designed to have
much to do with that Soeiety. If it is,
then such a statement as this is far
worthier of record than Mr. Ben. Hill's
contribution: “General Johnston had the
almost romantic devotion of his troops.
His removal caused the demoralization of
the army, and finally issued in its de
struction. His conduct of the great
affairs entrusted to him has had the ap
proval of distinguished soldiers of the
Federal army, and of English, French and
German Generals. As a mastor of the art
of defensive warfare, General Johnston
has had few equals.”
It is not exactly the respect due to
honest, hopeless, helpless imbecility that
we must accord General Hood. That
kind of consideration is the exclusive
claim of such men as Pemberton and
Holmes. But we cannot remember
Hood as we do Hampton, (Jordon, Stuart,
Mahone, Forrest, Price, Ewell and Polk—
who proved themselves equal to the com
mand of armies. •
It is in the list of such as Early, Long-
street, Wheeler, S. D. Lee, that General
Hood belongs—men who were good in
fight, brave, faithful, obedient, but utter
ly incompetent to plan, or combine, or
do more than they were ordered; but who
never did less.
The purpose of this squib is to elicit,
if possible, expressions from the ^thou
sands of intelligent men who were in the
ranks of Johnston’s army as to the effect
of Lis removal, Hood’s conduct of the
campaign, and the Soldiers’ estimate of
the two commanders.
Surely these expressions must be mat
ters of history! Surely they must be
worthy of record. Our soldiers were our
people. What they did and thought was
•the cause, was the war, was victory or
defeat, was and is history.
Mr. Ben. Hill’s notions are gravely re
corded: General Hampton’s notions in
the same premises were also recorded, to
his honor; now let the musket-bearers
have a record; let them speak. There
are few of Cockrell’s Missourians left to
tell what they thought of General John
ston • we buried most of them that were
left in the trenches at Franklin. But I
claim a voice, and this poor note inade-

rades that they felt tho end was near

the commanders of the Army of ^Ten
nessee in front of Atlanta: and that the
love, the reverence, the admiration for
their General, which rang and thrilled in
their cheers whenever they saw.himf are
in their hearts to-day; and that, though
none of them has written a book to vin
dicate General Johnston, his name and
his fame are written on the memories of
his soldiers and his countrymen, and no
man can blur the writing. That record,
that vindication, the immortal soldier
will esteem, I know, far beyond any that
can bo made elsewhere; and we, the sur
vivors of our brethren, who sleep on all
those fields, from Missouri to Georgia,
have taught our children to honor the
name of Johnston. S. M. T.

Palatka, Fla., Sept. 12, 1S74.
Pursuant - to previous notice, the Con
servative party of Putnam county was
this day convened at Parkhuxst Hall, in
the town of Palatka, at 11 o’clock a. m.
On motion of Majcr H. R. Tensdale,
CoL F. L. Dancy, of Orange Mills pre
cinct, was elected Chairman, and Henry
Peterman, Esq., of Palatka precinct,
Secretary.
Dr. B. G. Mays moved that the meet
ing resolve itself into a mass meeting of
the Conservative white citizens of Putnam
county, for the purpose of nominating a
candidate to represent the county in the
Lower House of the next General As
sembly of Florida, which motion pre
vailed.
The names of Col. W. L. L. Bowen
and Samuel E. Timmons were proposed
as candidates, and a ballot being had,
Samuel E. Timmons was the chosen can
didate of the people. His nomination
was then made unanimous. Mr. Tim
mons being present accepted the nomi
nation, making remarks appropriate to
the occasion.
Hon. IVilk Call being present, enter
tained the meeting with one of those
happy, speeches adapted to the times, and
spared not Radicalism.
Col. W. L. L. Bowen moved that a
Committee on Resolutions be appointed,
which motion prevailed. aDd Patrick
Murphy, H. B. Teasdnle, J. L. Burton,
A. J. Beach, E. F. Domanee and W. L.
L. Bowen were appointed said committee.
The committee reported, through its
Chairman, the following resolutions, viz :
"Whereas, This government was estab
lished by the sacrifice of blood by white
men, for white men, we, their descend
ants, declare our veneration for onr fore
fathers, and protest in their names, as
well as our own, against the destructive
policy of the dominant party known as
the Radical. We arraign that policy as
destructive of the white man’s liberty in
the South; of embarrassing him in the
pursuits of wealth and happiness; not
only by inisgovemment and excessive
taxation, but further, by the proposed en
actment of laws, the effect of which will
be to cause "a conflict between the two
races; therefore, be it
llesolved, That we, the Conservatives of
Putnam county, in mass meeting assem
bled, while hereby declaring our accept
ance of existing laws of Congress con
cerning the freedmen liberated by the
late war, and declaring our purpose to
give them equality before the law, do
earnestly deprecate the enactment of any
law touching their social position. This,
in our opinion, is not in the power of
Congress to make a subject for
legislation; for, as that body has
not the power to . legislate upon
the social position as among white
men, so neither has it power to legis
late upon that subject as between white
men and the negro. Further, they now
have all the rights belonging to * white
men—their liberty and the unembarrass
ed pursuit of wetdtb and happiness, and
equality before the law. Further, white
men bear the burden of taxation, paying
nine-tenths of all the taxes levied, out
of which State and local governments are
maintained, of which the freedmen en
joys equal benefit. Publie schools are
maintained by this taxation paid by white
men, out of which schools are supported,
especially set apart for their exclusive
use, and of which they have the unem
barrassed enjoyment. AVitbont property
generally, they are now enjoying the ben
efit of the white man’s, and the fruits of
the white man’s labor.
Jlesolved, That the mismanagement, ex
cessive taxation and general corruption
existing calls for our severest condemna
tion, for the rulers have grown rich and
fattened upon our distress, while their
acts are gradually and surely working out
our poverty and destruction. This ex
cessive taxation is a burden too onerous
to be borne, working as it does for the
ultimate confiscation of our property,
thus obstructing the white man in the
pursuit of wealth by burdening his in
dustry.
Jlesolved, That it is the opinion of this
meeting that the hope, of the country
depends upon a return to the old ways
of the Constitution, whose teachings the
radical faction of the Republican party
have seoffingly thrown aside; that aU
enactments outside of that instrument
are disorganizing and destructive, and
that this meeting instruct its delegate to
support no man for any office whatever
who will not with all his mind and body
give himself to the labor of restoring the
old ways of the Constitution—to the re
establishment of an economical State
government—to the reduction of the rate
of taxation to the lowest figure possible,
ill keeping with economy of government
—to oppose any further enactment of
Congress concerning social positions^
among white men, or as to white men
and thejiegro.
The resolutions were read and adopted.
Dr. B. G. Mays moved that a delega
tion be appointed composed of one per
son from each precinct to represent
Putnam county in the District Conven
tion at Jacksonville on Wednesday, the
l(!th of September, instant, and his mo
tion prevailing P. Sheffield, H. B. Teas-
dale, A. J.' Beach, H. H. Bryant, J. C.
Strickland, Jas. Glisson, F. L. Dancy, J.
S. Livingstone, Jas. E. Bishop and Henry
Peterman; were thereupon appointed
said delegates.
The following persons were on motion
appointed the Executive Committee:
H. B. Teasdale, F. L. Dancy, W. L. L.
Bowen, A- J. Beach, J. O. Devall, B. F.
Roberts, H. Peterman, W. L. Dorr and
J. G. Bishop, said committee to serve for
one year.
On motion of Col. AV. L. L. Bowen it
was ordered that copies of the proceed
ings of the meeting be prepared for pub

The Littlefield Bonds.—When it is
known that the * Administration and its
organ, the Sentinal, have been engaged
for months in a serious, solemn attempt
to fasten upon the tax payers of the State
a burden of four millions of dollars,
which would prove a crushing blow to all
hopes for future advancement and pros
perity, it is most provokingly cool for
Conservatives to be reminded by the
organ that their candidate once voted la
the Senate, in connection with the Con
servative members from the-West, for a
grant of State aid to the extent of two
millions for bridging the Chattahoochee
and extending the road West, the bonds
to be placed in the hands of reliable trus
tees and the State being well secured for
its liability. Whatever may be said of
this bond scheme, differing most essenti
ally from the fraudulent issues to tLe
Littlefield ring, the bill never became a
law. It was thought in the Assembly
that something wrong was discovered,
and through the advice of the Senator
himself and others it was killed. But for
Conservatives to be taunted with this
vote of thf>ir candidate for Congress by a
party which accepts, endorses, ratifies
and is seeking to clothe with a legal
sanction by a decree* of the couit3 the
whole fraudulent transactions with Lit
tlefield, is, as we said, provokingly cool

A Detroit young woman tried to be
aristocratic, and did not look at the mon
ey she gave to a horse-car conductor, but
he meekly gave her back the lozenge on
which was written, “I’ll never cease, to love
thee,” and said that he was an orphan,
with five little brothers to support, and
must be .excused.

The negroes of Talbot county seem de
termined to “ hab dem rights,” and dab 1
ble a little in the political mud hole. On
Saturday, the 5thinst., they held another
meeting in our court house, according to
appointment, for the purpose of bringing
out candidates for the Legislature. Again
we were unexpectedly called off and could
not be there. A friend, though, has been
kind enough to famish us with a sketch
of what took place:
Bev. Jasper Maxwell, an old keen-talk
ing country daraey, was called to “tuk
de cheer,” and Mfc Ike Flournoy, a ba-
boonish colored j school teacher from
Prattsbarg, took:his seat as Secretary.
A rather intelligent mulatto named Owens
said “dat he was’ob de opinion it tuk a
man of mneh. sen'cc to act as Secretary,
and he moved dat de cheer should ’point
an assistant for " de present Secretary
whenever he considered it necessary.”
>Dat ar -cheerman,” with his peepers
rolling around in' his head, pnt the mo
tion with the fmlowing brief remarks:
“De gemmen is 'pout right what wants a
existent secretary to put down de doins
ob dis conwention and Pse ob de same
repinion wid de gommen.” Motion pre
vailed.
Now comes a rich part of that meeting.
The chairman scratched his kinky head
and thought for some time. He seemed
to be laboring under the compunctions
of conscience, and the thoughts that
revolved in the poor old darkey’s head
were finally let out as follows: “Frens,
I’se mity curious feelin’ in dis here cheer;
I wants to go on wid dis here bizness,
but I jess tells you de troot, I dunno
bout my bein’ edzactly complimented to Cast Off Clothing Bought and Sold,
fill dis here cheer, and derefore I axes for At mT Whitaker and York sts. Best price given.

a existant in dis here cheer.” He took
his seat in silence. Mr. Owens: “Mr.
Cheer, I fully agrees wid you bout your
not habin’ sence nuff to fill dat ar cheer,
aud I moobes a motion to put somebody
else in yer place.” Mr.Ellison: “Mr.Cheer-
man, I lizes to pint out do order, as day
say in de palamantry rule. Cheerman :
“You’se in order, sah.” EUisen : “Jess
so, sah. I zactlv greeses you, still, bout
what you say bout your oncomposity to
take dat ar cheer and moobes de motion
dat you hab an consistent crunetary or
what in de debbil you mind to call him.”
Mr. Searcy: “Mr. Cheerman, is dis nig
ger in order?” Chair: “You’se in order,
sah.” Mr. Owens: “Mr. Cheerman,
we’s had enough of this. I want to say
something nice.” The Cheerman, want
ing to hear Searcy, began to use his gavel
with peculiar force, but Owens would be
heard; he said: “I tells you, Mr. Cheer
man, I want’s dis conwention to impeach
you, sah, for you’se not competent to sit
in dat ar cheer.” A big black, greezy
fellow, who had been sittingin one corner
with eyes, ears and mouth open, listen
ing, now arose : “ Mr. Cheerman, I
jess wants to ax you one question.
Does you feels dat you habs de
composity to sit in dat cheer ? Does you
feel it, sah ? Now dat’s what dis nigger
would like mity well fer to know.” The
chairman, poor old fellow, with his feel
ings wounded beyond measure, arose to
defend himself: Frens, I know’es I aint
got de edication arid de composity to fill
dis here cheer, but I’d like mity well fer
to know whats fer you wants to peach me
out’en dis here cheer fer, now.” While
he hod been standing up delivering this
defense some darkey, who had been on
his feet all the time, got tired and took
the chair that the chairman had just
vacated, thinking probably that he would
sit down in another that was close by.
So when said chairman finished he at
tempted to sit in his chair, as he thought,
and soon found himself tumbling down
the steps of the rostrum, for he sat down
on the floor and rolled over.

Scandalous Charges Against Three
Ministers.—Correspondence of the N.
Y. Herald, from Erie, Pa., Sept. 8, says:
The Erie conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church met for its thirty-ninth
annual session in this city on Wednesday
last. Bishop Jesse T. Peck, D. D., presid
ing. About 250 members were present
Three ministers are on trial. The Bev.
B. B. ’Roberts was yesterday expelled
from the ministry of the Methodist Epis
copal Church for conduct unbecoming a
Christian minister. The ltev. B. Marstcl-
ler had left his home for tho purpose of
attending the conference last year and he
had been seen on the cars with a woman
of doubtful character, and had never been
seeu or heard of since. Although a great
deal of scandal was connected with the
above cases, the conference kept them
very quiet, not even divulging what the
charges were; but they must have been
of tho “ Beecher sort ” in the case of Ro
berts, who was expelled. Nothing has
been done as yet in the case of the Bev.
B. Morsteller. Some people think that
the woman he was last seen with had
“seduced him” from the paths of virtue,
and that the minister was under her in
fluence so far that he dared not again re
turn to the wife of his bosom. Still
others claim that he seduced the woman,
’a la Beecher, and left his home with her
and is still living with her. It would not
do for him to return, os he will, no doubt,
be expelled. - It is a sad cose truly, but it
goes far to show that ministers are not
" infallible ” by any means. Another
case wa3 presented yesterday, that of the
Bev. E. H. Prosser. The charges are not
fully known, as the conference desires to
keep the matter secret os much as possi
ble; but I have heard that they undoubt
edly consist of imputations nf ungentle-
manly conduct toward the “ daughters of
Eve.”
A Distinguished Hebrew.—Sir Moses
Montefiore, the venerable Jewish baronet,
has just resigned the office of President
of tho Board of Deputies, a Jewish as
sembly, of which he has conducted the
business for many years past. The Lon
don Committee of Deputies of British
Jews is a body which guards zealously
the interests of Israelites both at home
and abroad, and its efforts have been often
exerted in defence of the Jewish nation.
In tendering his resign ition (a course to
which he refers with many expressions
of regret), Sir Moses Montefiore gives as
a reason his failing health and great age—
the venerable champion of Jewish rights
being now nearly ninety years old. Dur
ing a long-lifetime, devoted to the benefit
of his fellow-creatures in all parts of the
inhabited world, in which the weak were
persecuted by barbaric power, Sir Moses
has earned for himself the admiration
and good will of all men, Jews or Gen
tiles. In Jerusalem, particularly, has Sir
Moses lavished much of his health, time
and money, and the inhabitants of the
Holy City, in fact, look upon him as a
princely benefactor. The Jewish Board
of Deputies will feel deeply the loss they
sustain in being deprived of the leader-
ship of Sir Moses Montefiore, for, al
though he very seldom attended the
councils of that body, from his lodge at
Ramsgate he directed its affairs, which
were not always of the most simple char
acter.
Gen. Cowan, acting Secretary of the
Interior, has given his decision that the
