CRAW70BDSTILL2, Ga , May 4a 1874. /
Editor oftU Coatt&utiQnaUit:
Thy reply of Mr. Hill, of the 2lst uiumo,
to my. first ortlole on his Historical Ad
dress, renders it proper, if not neoessery,
that the substance of this article, No, J,
should relate to matters different from what
I Intended it should, when Ihe first was *vriu
ten. \Ybai was intended to bare been em
braced in Xo. 3, theyeioro, will he postponed
until I respond to his letter referred to—the
chief objeri of which seems fp hare bees to
divert attention from the merits of the real
issues between ua, as presented by nij first
article, not only in reference to i)»e Hampton
Roads Conference, but other matters specified
by me.
This response, tl ough I was, and -till am.
exceedingly feeble from protracted disease,
and now barely able to dictate what is pen
ned by the. hand of another, would have been
sent to yon in time f>r your IsbI Saturday’*
issue but for ihe previous announce moot in
the Atlanta Herald that Mr. Hill would hare
a further coiomimicaticn **u the same sub
ject in the following Sunday's issue of that
paper: That announced communication is
now before me. and 1 wilt proceed to give it.
••Now, I Bland before the public respons
ible, on pain of infamy, to make good the
“following statement of facia:
“1 was rot only In Riebmond during all
“the time nhe subject of the commission wa*
“under consideration by Mr. Davis ’ bnt Mr.
“Stephen* knew I was there; saw me 'al-
“mo s ? daily; talked with me; knew tha jin.
“terest I took in the snbject of the comtaia-
• 4 sioii, and could not have forgotten thjese
“facts unless he has become very
“indeed. I-was at the man> room,
“him in the presence of a number
“men that 1 shoulo insist cn Lisappointmenl
“on the peace Totamisrion/*
On these issues Mr. Hill vauntingly pj-o-
claima that he raises the “black flag,” and
“will neither give nor lake quarter/’ lie will
no wen iacBc
ery imbecile
ion, and told
»r- of r gen|le
W* theagbt the past | ___
way: of sfeWng ir, “Jibakep«ire.*" At .any., -qcleralcuo '»ol»>tifmhui pwic-f. refVsctUm^
“ infamy.’’
This is all quite high.scunding.'rather In
deed on the ••highfalutin” order ;*and com
ing from anybody else, hut for if? exi
genre, might be received as the tones «f;
true man of real honor and chivalry. Com
ing, however, from Mr. Hill, what do they
amount to? What does be mean by the
“black flag?” Judging from his pa*u course
in like matters the only legitimate inference
Is that be means by it untiling but isk !. Un
der what other “flac.” either tvlto a peu'dr
other heavier'instrument -charged with the
same jolty fluid, did he ever fight T A« f*»r
wbnl he 8§y9 about “ptoof. retraction or in
fumy,” it is quite enough for meat this time
auJ in this couuection to remind the public,
that he some seventeen years ago stated in a
public speech si Thompson, before a large
audience, as tt was reported to me. that b<f
had ft few days before at Lexington charged
me to tuy face “with having been a traitor to
tha Whig p’*rty, and that I cowered under it.
When called upon to make good this state
ment a« ft gentleman of h»*nor, he neither
furni-hcJ “pro.^f.” nor m-ide any • retraa-
tiou.” or other aMit.vpe /or his unfounded
and boastinl fabricatiou ; but submitted to
the • infamy*’ of being posted as a man utter
ly destitute of truth. It was after this brand
was then thus fixed upon him, ko ns now
hoisfod hie “Mack flag,” and squirted fcis
ink In most diegusting profusion. This,
therefore, it is to be presumed is ali that he
now meat)a by reference to bis usual and fa.®
?orite ‘‘flag.”
As to h s several issues of veracity i *ab^
mil the following comments only;
His statement, that I knew he wa« in Rich
mond pending the consideration of the Hamp
ton Roads Conference—that I saw him al
most doily—talked with him—and knew ihe
interest he took in thekubject of the Cgmmis*
eion, etc., If utterly unrounded In fact.
His statement that he was in my room,
and told me in (he presence of a number cf
gentlemen that he should insist upon my ap -
poiatment on the Hampton Ro&th Confer
ence, (and this in Its ocnqection is what his
statement means, if it means anything.) is
also utterly unfounded in fact. Let him,
therefore, bring forward'his “proof,** name
the gentlemen referred to, make his “retrac
tion,” or bear that “pain of infamy ” which
he invokes.
His statement teat n» was ia Richmond all
the time this Commission was under gnnsid
.eratloa. in denial of my statement . that he
was In Georgia at the time. I shall say'mere']' 1
about hereafter.
U was In expectation mat sftme of his
proofs at least to make good these statements
might be adduced in his previously Announced
article of yesterday, that I waited to «ne it,
before responding’to his letter of the 21st
ultimo ; bnt somewhat to my surprise it eon*,
tains nothtog of the sort. It is upon the
whole nothing but another one of his six or
seven columned ••ra-raagnolee.” a l\ mods
Barer®. It docs, however, if true, throw
some light upon a matter that was heretofore
dark and rather mysterious to me. Bnt the
truth, if he has told it. reflects, I sm sorry
to «»y. quite as tittle credit upon Mr. Davis
as it does upon himself If. however, whaj,
he says be either truecr false—well may Mr.
Davis exclaim. “Save me from my friends.'.'

tbe meeting of the Georgia delegation in my
room early in January, aad our conenkWtiea
upon the rnolutlons | then subpiltted destrvu
comes notice from me. According to his ao-
count, after tbe delegation had- agreed to
support mem on tbo te-as Mated be went
over to tbe Executive Mansion and conversed
with Mr. Davis until midnight, concocting
with him a scheme hy which F wsa to ho cir
cumvented. My recollection le very distinct
tnat after I read the resolutions to him ond
be bed objected only to' that fc»tgre which
provided for the oppointment «f the oo to tala,
eioners by Congren, and not by the Presi
dent t snd I had explained to him my reason
fort hie provision, whith was to relieve Mr?
Davis from (tin embarrassment iu which be
would be planed from hie then recent speech
es against the call of a general convention of
States as an inflatory step for negotiation* of
peed*.be .earned to be satisfied with the
explan tiun, aud said that la that viaw of
tbe subject he thought Mr. Davis him tv It
would uot object to them. I told him the
best w.»w to nettle, that question was fur him
to lake tbe Resorptions over to Mr. Davis,
• and »ulnn(t {hem ' to him.—The Ntecntive
Mansion was but a short way across the
direct from my quarters. This he did. Tha
delegation awaited his return. He wait gone
but a short time and reported that he hod
read the Resolution* -to Mr. Dart', and that
he would not object, to thorn. This D my
recollection upon that point.' It is true Mr.
Hill diilany. in case the cymmleHioneri et>auid
be appointed as proposed that l ought to lie
'one of them, and when 1 told him,' no. ha
urged bis views; but »■ Hie list I stated
that 1 "had no desire tube one'of the Com-'-
taisafon—I".did not think [.ought to be. It it'
utterly untrue however lliel I objected in
the appointment of. Mr. Hunter on’that oo-
casioti or in auy time on tbe Commission then
under consideration.
Ae to what he soya about my agreeing ta
write lo Gov. Brown not to call-tbs Legisla
ture together oo conditions that the delega
tion would xupport niy resolution?, I have
oo reeolleelibn of anything of the sot t 1 do
not usually make bargains of such a charec,
ter. Moreover I-thought at th* time it wie
highly expedient that tbe Leglelalnre should
be convened In order to take proper action to
arrest tbe demoralization set forth la the let
ter of Judge llnusell. I have so question
that I assured the delegation that I wuuU
(tee my utmost influence with Gov. Brown
against recommending aoy eeparato State
action looking to the withdrawal of Georgia j
from Ijte Confederacy and making separate 1
terms of peace for herself with the Federal;
