What Mr. J. 1. Miller says upon th<
Subject.
At stated in au editorial a few days
since, we are r ot prepared to believe that
Mi. W A. H^upbill, the Fablie Printer,
ban lieen gailty of having intentionally
mtule an overohmrge againat the htate in
hia ai*ouuuta for Pnblio Printing. Upon
gem ral principles, we hold that it ia moat
unfair and unjust to obarge npon any
man, iahonesty. Until convincing proof
is had that he deserves sn h imputation.

putiirely brought Be is one of the
pnidishers of sn excellent paper in At-
Ian's, sud as snsh, may be considered

found him courteous and fair, and we
have yet to know of his ever having been
obarge 1 with any taint oi dishonesty by
snv one until the recent (what we con
sider piematnre) publication in another
paper in this city.
On yesterday we had a call from Mr.
J. I. Miller, the gentleman who made tbe
examination for tne Oomptroller-Oeneral
of Mr. Hemphill’s aooonnt against the
State, running back for two years. Mr.
Miller we have known for years, as not
only an experienced printer, bntaa a oor-
reot man of business, and striotly honora
ble. We have had a great desire to hear
Mr. Miller's statements oonoerning his
examination of Mr. Hsmphill's accounts,
and hia views on the subjeot of the Pub
lic Printing question. We report as
nearly as we osn give them the exact
words of onr conversation with Mr. Mil
ler. We asked him:
“Have yon read the articles that have
been published reflecting on Mr. Hemp
hill concerning the Pnblio Printing?”
Mr. Miller—“Yes, end regretted very
much snoh publication, and the oonneo-
tton of my name with the premature
•Larues bi ought against Mr. Hemphill.
“Yon have examined Mr. Hemphill'o
aoci.uut—do yon oonsider the ohargee
•gainst him well founded?"
Mr. Miller—“That depends upon the
•oust ruoiion that ia piaord upon the law
regulating the pey of the Pnblio Printer.
A oording to Comptroller Qeueial Gold-
•muu’a construction of the law, the State
baa been uverohargrd, not only by Mr.

“L»u you oonaider Mr. Goldsmith’s

Mr..Miller: “It may be, aooording to

Mr. Miller: “No—in one of the books

But I do not pretend to say that I osn

there were errors in tbe estimates

they were dne to mistakes ot

would have to swear to tbs correctness

• Do yon t rink there ere any grounds

intentionally overcharged tbe Stete ?”
Mr. Miller: “I do not. Mr. Hemp
hill’s account was based npon the snppo.
sition that he would be oredited by suon
expenses as other pnblio printers have
been allowed. Mr. Goldsmith doss not
construe the law so as to allow each.
There are I think some over estimates of

not the men who made the mea-ursment

The Urtad Jury Find n Trad BUI
Against Ueo. F* Jonas*
We learn that two days since the grand
jury then in Beeaion investigated the facts
in tbs late poisoning oaae of Dr. Craig
and Judge Pnllntn, and concluded by re
taining a true bill against Mr. Geo. F.
Jones, tbe man who pnt the soonite in
tha whisky which caused the death of Dr.
Craig. While, as we understand, not s
single man connected with the hongs has
the least suspicion that Mr. Jones inten
tionally administered the fatal draught,
yet it is supposed that tbe indictment
was based npon the testimony of those
who were cognizant of the facts. They
believe that the set of Jones in placing
the bottle in a tab of water anjl after
wards removing and destroying the label
waa done under the mental excitement
sensed by a knowledge of the fatal mis
take whioh he had made. The bottles
were oorreotly labeled, and Mr. Jones
made tbe mistake by pioking up tbe
aconite instead of the elixir of orange.
We append the written statements ot

oellar with Mr. Jones, and also that of

LEB ON FINALLY DETERMINING
TO SURRENDER
(Jortspoudanes of th* Richmond Difpatch.
April 9, 1878
I have just returned from an exceed
ingly pleasant visit to Appomattox Court
House. The intelligent Clerk, and Sheriff
of the county, and other gentlemen.of
the village and neighborhood were vury
courteous and obliging in pointing out
the historic h.oulirieB, and I found a sad
interest fn aeemg the road by whioh
Sheridan moved on Appomattox station,
the ground on whioh Gordon whipped
Sberidfen in the last battle of the Army
of Northern Virginia, Grant’s hoadqtmr
ters, Lee’s headquarters, the veryspo on
which Lee and Grunt first met, tbe room
in whioh the terms of oapitnlation were
drawn up and signed, the gronnd on
which the Confederate arms were staoked,
tbe plaoe where Gen. Lee took leave ot
his officers, and other f ointa of interest.
As so mauy errors have crept into the
popular accouus of the surrender, and
as 1 h ve Gen. Lee’s own account, which
be gave a company of his friends, a few
days before his fatal illness, and wuich
has never been publish d, I have con
cluded that on rhis anniversary of the
"sad 9th of of April, 1865,” it would be
grateful to my own feeliDgs and aooepta-
ble to the public that I should give
I will not back to detail how Gen.
Lee’s thin line was broken on the 2d of
April, 1865, and he thereby comp* lied,
nnder every disadvantage, to evacuate
Richmond und Petersburg and seek the
junction wirn Johnston, which he had
determined on and aotoully be trail to ac-
ipliab six weeks before. Nor need I
_ of hia cruel dwappoinim-nt in find
icg at Amelia Goon Home tlat his posi
tive orders had been disregarded, and
the rations intended for his famishing
army sent to Riohmond to be destroyed,
while the traius were loaded with con
signments to Bhermao. I will not sketch
the events of the "running fight” from
Amelia Springs to Appomattox. Suffioe
it to say that Grant had been enabled,
by having the shorter route, by the delay
of Gen. Lee on aooount of the swollen
condition of the streams, and by the
necessary halt at Amelia Oonrt House,
to throw this immense army on the flank
of his antagonist, to ont off onr line of
retreat to Danville, and to be in po
sition to continually harraBS our jaded,
starving troops. The broken down
males and horses were nnable to drag the
wagons (even lightly loaded) and the ar
tillery along the mirv roads. Bheridan’s
splendidly mounted and equipped cav
alry were able to make most advantageous
forays npon the trains, and often Lee
waa obliged to halt and fight for boors,
and fight eight or ten timea his numbers
npon the most disadvantageous ground,
until the jaded teams could poll the
trains ont of the mod.
In all of these contests the Army of
Northern Virginia maintained its old
piestige; the men fought with heroic
courage, and won some most brilliant
victories. But the constant marching
and fighting without rations or sleep
steadily and surely decimated the thin
ranks of this noble band. Men who had
been true to their colon from the early
days of the war fell out of ranks and
were oapturad simply beoauae it was be
yond thsir power or pby-ioai endurance
to go any further; mauy who had been
hitherto good soldiers straggled; the de
voted sou strong found great difficulty in
preserving org miration and efficiency;
and as th * retreat rolled on by the light
of burning wagons and to tbe music of
horse artillery, mingled »with tbe rattle
of small arms, tha oorpe commanders
saw that the days of that grand o'd army
were numbered.
Accordingly, on Thursday night (tbe
6th of April) they held a conference, at
whioh they commissioned Gen. W. N.
Pendleton (chief of artillery) to inform
Gen. Lee that in their judgment the
time had come wnen negotiations should
oe oeened with Gen. Grant.
General Pendleton thus describes the
interview: "General Lee was lying on
the ground. No other heard the oou-
veroation between him and myself. He
received* my communication with tne
reply, 'Gracious heavens! I trust it has
uot come to that’ And added, ‘Gene
ral, we have yet too many bold men to
think of laying down our arms. The
«my do not fight witL spirit, while our
boys still do. Resides, if we were to say
a word to the Federal oommauder, ha
would regard it as such a confession of
weakness as to make it the occasion of
wtmaiidiug unconditional surrender—a
proposal to which I will never listen. I
nave resolved to d*e first; and that if it
corn* s to that we shall force tbrongh or
h11 tall in onr places. * * General,
mts is no new question with me. 1 have
never believed we could against the gi
gantic combination for our subjugation,
make good in the long ruu our mdepeud-
• nee unless foreign powers should, di
rectly or indirectly, assist us. This I wua
■•lire it was heir interest and duty to
and I hoped they would so regard
But such consult rations ready rna to a
me no difft rence. We bad, 1 waa satis
fied, sacred pnnoiplea to maintain and
rights to defend for whish we were in
duty bound to do our boat, even If we
perished in the endeavor!
These were, as nearly as I osn recall
them, the exact words of General Lee
on Hit? most ontioa! ..cession. Ton see
in them the soul of the man. What his
conscience dictated and his judgment
decided, there his heart waa.
General Lee did not thiuk proper to
oomply at once with the suggestion of his
corps commanders, but when, on the
night of the next day (the 7th) he re
ceived from General Grant a demand for
the surrender of his army, he opened
tbe correspondence (too familiar to need
repetition hertd which culminated in th
flual terms of surrender. Bnt in tuo
meantime General Lee waa pressing on
t« wards Lyuchburg, and on the veiling
of tne 8th his v tugnafid reached Appo
mat ox station, where , r-tious for the
army had oeeu orders^ to be aeut from
Lynohburg. Four loaded traius were
in sight, and the famished army
about to be supplied, When the
head oi tiberidan’s cdlumu cashed
upon the scene, oaptnred the provis
ions, and drove the vanguard back to
Appomattox Oourt House, four miles off.
Sheridan’s impetuous troopers met a
sudden and bloody check in the streets.»f
the village, the Colonel oouimandiug thn
adv noe being killed. That morning
Geueral Lee had divided the remnant oi
his army into two wiugs, under Gordon
and Longstreet— Gordon having the ad-
vance ana Longstreet tha rear. Upon
the rej nlseof tbecavaliy, Gordon’s oorps
Advanced through the village and spent
another night of sleepless vigilance and
unzieiy, while Dongntivet. four miles in
tie rear, had to. entrench against the
Army of the Potomuo under Meade. (I
gazed tho older day with mourpful inter
est ou the last trenches ever dug by Lee’s
veterans.) That uight General Lee held
a council of war with Longstreet, Gordon
and Fitz Lee, at whioh it was determined
that Gordon should advance early the
next morning to "feel” the enemy in hm
front—that if there was nothing but cav
alry be should press on, followed by
Longstreet -bnt that if Grant’s infantry
had gotten np in too large force to be
driven, he should halt and notify Geu-
triil Lee, that a flag of trace be raised,
and the useless saoriflo* of life stopped.
Accordingly, on Ike morning of th-
memorable 9th ot April, Gordon and
Fiiz Lee attacked Sheridkn’s splendid
cavalry, outnumbering them more than
two to one and flushed witu fall oonfi
denee of victory *n4 the assurance that
if they needed sappertthe ‘ Army of the
James” was close at baud. Yet, despite
these odds and tha exhaustion of thes<
famishing men. they went into that fight
with the heroie courage whioh ever ehar
actenzed that. old corps, and proved
fhtmsetVM ub* 4ntftoHnr of Stonewall
JackBon, Ewell, Early, Gordon, Rode*,
Ramseur, Pegram, J. A. Walker, O. A
Evans, and other uoble leaders whom
they had been wont to follow to victory.
Utterly nnable to withstand the onset,
Hheridau hastened in person to hurry up
the Army of the James, while Gordon
drove bis "invincible troopers” more
than a mile, and captured and bronght
off two pieoea of artillery and a large
number of prisoners.
Had only Sheridan barred the way, the
surrender had not occurred at Apoomat
tox Court House; but Gordon only drove
baok the cavalry to find himself con
fronted by the "Army of tbe James,” and
the road blooked by ten times his num
bers.
What immediately followed if best told
in the eloquent words ot Oo’onsl O. &
VeUkbls in his speech at the great Lee
Memorial meeting in Riohmond, Novem
ber 3d, 1870:
At. three o'olook on the morning of
that fatal oay General Lee rode forward,
still hoping that he might break through
the oouutless hordes of the enemy whioh
hemmed us in. Halting a short distance
in the rear of onr vanguard, he sent me
ou to General Gordon to ask him if be
oould break through the enemy. I found
General Gordon and General Fitz Lee
on their front line in the dim light of
the morning arranging an attack. Gor
don’s reply to tne message (I give the
expressive phrase of th e gallan t Georgian)
waa this: "Tell General Lee I bare
fonght my oorps to a frazzle, and I fear
1 can do nothing unless I am heavily snp
C ried by Longstreec'aoorpa.” When I
re this message baok to General Lee,
he said: ‘Theu there ia nothing left ms
but to go and see General Grant, and I
would rather die a thousand deaths.’
Convulsed with passionate grief, many
were the wild words whioh we sooke a*
we stood around him. Said one: " Old
General, wnatwill history say >f the sur
render of ths army in the field f”
H« replied : " it*; I know tney will
say hard things of ns; they will not un
derstand how we were overwhelmed by
nambers; but that is not the question,
Colonel; the question is, is it right to
surrender this army? If it is right, then
I will take all the responsibility.” Fel
low-soldiers, though he alone was calm
in that hour of humiliation, the aool of
our great Captain uuderweut the throes
of death for his grand old army surren
dered, and for bis people, so soon to lie
at the mercy of the foe; and the sorrows
of this first death at Appomattox Court
House, with the afflictions whioh fell
upon the devoted South, weighed upon
hia mighty heat t to its breaking, when
the welcome messenger cam- from God
to translate him to his home in Heaven.”
But this letter is long enough, and I
must res rve for another General Lee's
own aooouut of his meeting with General
Grant, and other incidents of the sur
render. Viator.
