LETTER FROM HON. B. H. HILL,,
To the Editor of the Chronicle Sentinel:
_ I am receiving quite a number of iuvita.
tions to address the people io Georgia and
the adjoining States. It would be agreeable
to me if I could write an answer to euch
specific request. But I cannot do so, and,
under no circumstances, could I possibly at
tend one-tenth of the meetings. , I must,
therefore, beg the indulgence of. onr friends
to receive this as the reply to such of their
letters as I do not answer in person.
The time has now arrived when no man
who loves his country, or desires its peace
and prosperity, can withhold his support
from the Democratic party. Whatever con-,
siderations may have heretofore seemed to
cxrit to induce or incline any of oiir people
to accept,, as a temporary expedient, the Re
construction measure, have certainly proven
fallacious. The plain, leading idea of the
Chicago platform. is to maintain these
odious measures in the ten States as
perpetual over the people and supreme
over the Constitution. The plainly avowed
means of securing these ends consist in
matinf, by Congressional action, the
Southern States vassals to the Northern
States, and Southern whites vassals to the
Southern blacks. Io view of these now de
clared purposes of the Radical party, how
fortunate is it that the Southern white
voters did not accept these measures 1 If
we had accepted, the National Democracy
would have been compelled to abide them,
or subject the parly to the severe charge of
seeking to overturn what the qualified
voters of the States had agreed to und es
tablished, and, thereby, of promoting
another revolution : whereas, as we rejected
them, the Radicals are subjected to the
truthful, but terrible, charge of seeking to
perpetuate upon the white race of the South
governments which have received no ap
proval or support except from the deceived
negroes and worthless adventurers, and,
thereby, of continuing a revolution whicb
had no origin bnt in passion, which can have
no existence but in strife, and no end but in
blood? It is plain, therefore, that all of
our fellow citizens who have been inclined
to accept these measures from whatever mo
tives of policy, must now, in vindication of
their own sincerity, abandon them, and join
the party which nobly declares these “usur
pations, revolutionary, nnconstitntional and
void!" And no man will welcome to onr
ranks all such more cordially than myself.
For tauuga 1 never had the slignest lattn in
the wisd im or practicability n* *k~ of
accepting, with a view of rejecting wbal we
accepted, yet I never question the motives of
a sincere man who differs with me as to the
best motives of accomplishing a grave end.
Nor have I ever altered a word, which, just
ly construed, can ever intlicale the contrary.
1 do most heartily rejoice at the now mani
fest prospect of seeing every decent white
man in the South united with us in the glo
rious work of rebuking this monstrous in
iquity, its authors, advocates and supporters.
iso, again, let me say a word on the subject
of Relief. I believe 1 can truly eay there is
not a man in the State who is, and ever has
bieu, more anxions to sec our people bon
orably relieved of the heavy debts contracted
on the basis of negro property, or daring the
existence of negro slavery. Strict justice
would equalize the burdens of a war waged
for onr common benefit and maintained by
our common consent. This one idea covers
the whole question. Upon that basis satis
factory results could have been worked out
by true statesmanship. Why has it not been
dene ? Because dirty Radical enemies to all
honesty and right seized upon tho word
“Relief ’’ and made it mean repudiation aod
robbery. Relief, by meaus of perjury to the
Constitution and laws, never has been and
never can be possible. That cannot relieve
which criminates and degrades. And these
ic famous Radicals intended from the begin
ning to criminate and degrade, but not to
relieve our people. They made the promise
of Relief in their wicked attempt to subvert
the government of our State, with the dis-
tinct knowledge that the promise'would not
be fulfilled. They intended, under tbe hhpo
of Relief, to induce tbo people to vote to
disfranchise intelligent white men and enfran
chise ignorant black men only that rogues
might thereby get office. So I warned tho peo
ple in advance. Did I not do right ? Have
nut results proven tbe truth of the warning?
The Radical Congress not ODly struck out
among ns from the North; business will re
vive; tho pace of our property will enhance,
and we can afford to increase the wages of
labor. If the Radical party should succeed,
tbe little confidence now remaining will be
destroyed; discord and strife between the
races will increase; a war of races and
civil war will come sooner or later; capital
and belter people from tbe North will not
come among us; carpet-baggers and thieves
will multiply in numbers and increase ia in
solence; much of tbe capital now here will
be carried away; the price of property will
still farther decline; the products of industry
will be lessened, and labor mast still more
decline in price. Every planter, merchant
and business man can make this speech and
feel and show its verity in his very business.
With ther laces acting together, peace is
certain. With the races acting separately,
strife is equally certain. With carpet-bag.
gers teaching the black race to' hale the na
tive white race, the extent of - strife no man
can foresee.
Besides, we have good speaking talent on
our Electoral ticket. Some of them I have
beard in former times and know their abili
ty. Three of them (Mr. Bacon, Major Cam
ming aod General DaRose), I have heard
daring this canvas, and I rejoice in beiiig
able to congratulate our State in the'posses-
sion of these yonng gentlemen who areso
strong in argument, aud, at the same time,
so elevated in sentiment, so excellent in
character, and so full: of the promise of still
increasing usefulness. Add to these the
many great minds hot on the ticket, but who
are serviog the people on the Stamp and
through the press, and I am sore the supply
is ample. Very truly yours,
B. H. Hill.

THE HUN.
HAVAS U
JEFFERSON
ENGLAND.
We copy from the London Standard of the
8th instant the following article on tbe arri
val in England of the Hon. Jefferson Davis,
ex-President of tbe Southern Confederacy.
It pays a deservedly high compliment to Mr.
Davis, and the gallant soldiers who fought
so nobly to sustain a cause which was dear
to them. It will well repay perusal:
The arrival in England of the late Presi
dent of the Confederate States has naturally
excited much interest and attention, it
could not be otherwise, considering the deep
and anxions feeling with which men of all
parties and o£.opposite sympathies watched
for four long years the progress of the Ame
rican straggle. To the enthusiasts of that
political sect which makes a species of reli
gion of its devotion to the negro aod its ab
horrence of slavery, Mr. Davis was daring
those four years the representative incarna
tion of political and social evil—tbe leader
of the last effort of the falling cause of ty
ranny in its conflict with the spirit of pro
gress and humanity. To an opposite class
of minds he was the representative of the
cause of law and order againat the anarchi
cal and democratic tendencies of the age;
the chosen champion of a people who, from
the pecnliar time and circnmstanoes.of their
struggle, appeared to be maintaining tbe
critical and decisive contest of the old order
against the new, of aristocraoy against De
the result of the war, without pretending
any more than she pretends, to be ashamed
of a cause whteh was gallantly sustained,
because R was finally unfortunate. In re
ceiving with a cordial welcome the chief re
presentative of that cause, we are dofog
honor to the dead rather than to the living—
are expressing our sympathy with the hero-
tam and the misfortunes or the past, not with
the resentments of the presenter the possible
aspirations of lire future. And if it be tbe
oase ^ r * Davis is more warmly wel
comed than a Northern statesman of equal
eminence would be-if we ahould greet Gen.
Lee more heartily than his victor—Ameri-
cana . are sufficiently akin to ha to under-
*}K*e strongly greatness in
misfortune appeals to our affections than
greatness in triumph; to remember, more
over, teat-the conditions of tbe conflict gave
to no Northern chief a chance of such dis-
na- Unction and honor as tbe Southern leaders
have earned by their heroic struggle against
adverse fortune—by skill displayed in crea-
Ung resources out of nothing, by victories
gained against unparalleled odds, by the
courage that never quailed before the dark
est prospects, and an endurance that never
broke down under the heaviest load of labor,
anxiety and calamity. These are the
achievements and the qualities that we
honor in Jefferson Davis; nor, in honoring
him and them, can we be said to do wrong
or discourtesy to those who were once his
enemies, and are now his fellow country
men,

of a wise statesmanship to provide eVery
honorable means of securing relief and re
inspiring hope. Bat to see these very mis
fortunes of our people seized upon by dirty,
Radical hypocrites, aod used as a. cover in an
attempt to secure the consent'of that very
people to add degradation and dishonor to
their misfortunes, was too mudh to allow sir
lence. I do sympathize with and would
rescue the victim*; but I do most inexpres
sibly despise the wicked' fltends who thus
gamble with the .misfortunes of a'helpless,
unarmed but noble people, for (no purpose
but to degrade and to rob them. And I
have no faith io, or respect for any man who
does not despise them as I do.
I dismiss this subject by again warning
onr people that relief can never come through
the Radical party. Through that party
they can have negroes for law-givers;
strangers for tax-gatherers; felons forjudges;
and office-traders lor Governors; bnt never,
never relief from hardens nor hope for any
thing good.
I call upon all honest men who have been
deceived by this cry of relief to manifest,their
honesty by abandoning and despising tbe
creatures who deceive them, and who are
Utterly incapable of suggesting any way of
relief except through perjury to the Consti
tution and laws, and- through the degrada
tion of virtue, the elevation of vice, and
treachery to race. The defeat and disgrace
of Radicalism is the very first indispensable
step to relief. Until this step be taken no
other is possible. When this one step-shall
be taken every other, which wise men
can grant or honest men desire, will be
practicable.
I shall do all I can in this great struggle—
IwlFt'h l , e r? 1 P eacefu l struggle at the
5° rhbe ? yon the continent, and
or civdization and social excellence at the
, ^ cannot make ‘many moro
speeches here. Uu r white peopled not
speeches. The very nature of the
of not a few of those who dissent most
strongly from the prevalent worship of “the
nineteenth century,” the interest of tbe South
was the common interest of all monarchical
And aristocratic societies—of ail orders whose
position rests' upon- settled law and ancient
tradition, as against the leveling temper of
American Democracy.
“Thia by no narrow bounds wo3 circumscribed,
It won tbe cause of chivalry nt large.”
And there can be no doubt tbat the fall of
the South gave an inpulse and enconrage-
meut to the progress of the Democratic
spirit throughout Christendom greateu than
aoy it has received since the French Revolu
tion. To a much larger class than either ol
these two extreme parties Mr. Davis is sim
ply the chief and representative of a lost
cause, in whicb millions of Englishmen felt
a strong and earnest sympathy, which they
believed to be the cause of constitutional,
right and substantial justice, as well as of
national independence aod public liberty,
and whose fall they still regret. He is the
defeated leader of a gallant ont unfortunate
people, whose heroid struggle against over
whelming odds elicited the reluctant admi
ration of their enemies, . .and excited the
warmest interest among multitudes of men
indifferent to or ignorant of the original
merits of the quarrel. He is the represen
tative of the nation which, for four years,
asserted its independence against armies
fourfold greater than its own ; which, with
half a dozen craisers, almost swept from the
seas the.commerce of a power whose naval
force was second only to our own ; which,
without money, without foreign trade, block
aded by sea and land, held its own-daring
Chat long period against a foe pos
sessed ot boundless resources, and lav
ishing them without stint; which fought
to the last in a spirit of chivalrous
courage aud generosity, never provoked by
Its sufferings into savagery, or exasperated
by outrages into cruel retaliation; and which,
after its surrender, commanded as much
reFexence by its pal tent.fortitude and loyal
acceptance of tbe inevitable, as during the
struggle it bad excited admiration by its gal
lantry and endurance. Mr. Davis comes to
'us as the, representative ot Virginia and her
sisters in straggle and suffering; as the Oom-
mander-in-Chief of those armtts which, nn-
der Lee and Jackson, Johnston and Beaure
gard, achieved so long a aeries of extraordi-
naiy though finally fruitless victories; as tbe
chosen chief and .finally the' long-suffering
martyr of the cause for which Lee and John
ston fought, for which Stuart, Stonewall
Jackson, Morgan, Cleburne and ABhbey fell.

large building, in tbe basement of which
were the family; grocery stores of Dent <fc
Henderson, and Wm. M. Mitchell & (Jo. In
the upper apartment was tbe Recorder
printing office, and tbe law office of J. C.
Meadors—all destroyed. Our cotemporary
of the Recorder suceeeled in saving
only a very small quauitty of type,
and bis loss is very severe. No fosnrance.
O. Brown & Co.’a dry goods store was de
stroyed—goods nearly all saved. The fire
was then communicated to the buildings on
the opposite side of Chambers street, where
the two stores of Edwards & Co. were de
stroyed. From thence the flames were com
municated to the corner bnilding on Sonlb
Railroad street, known aa the Jones & Wil
liams’ building, in tbe rear of which waa the
residence of Dr. Douglas, both of which
were conenmed. The dry goods store of
Brownfield and J. E. Williamson were de
stroyed, when by the indomitable exertions
of our citizens, the next building to William
son’s—owned by Green & Watkins—was
saved by extraordinary exertions. Bat for
the small space intervening, every business
house on South Railroad-,nrixyte.would hnra
hutelv checked by blowing np the bnilding
of J. E. Williamson & Co.
At the present writing it is not known
how tbe fire originated. It was discovered
inside the grocery house of R. J. Griffin &
Co., which is presumptive evidence that it
was the work of an incendiary, as no sign of
a forced entrance was discernable.
Thus in a few hoars onr embryo city sus
tained a very serious loss. Some of the par
ties were insured—in fact most of them, we
believe.
The entire loss by fire is estimated at not
less than twenty-five thousand dollars, most
ot which, however, is covered by insurance.

It will be a most unfortunate as well as a

Amos Kendall on the Situation.—The
venerable Amos Kendall wrote alet'erto the
Democratic Club of Washington city on the
occasion of the great meeting in that city the
other night. This veteran politician was one
of the most prominent of public men in other
days. Like F. P. Blair the elder, he was one
of the ablest partisan writers of his day, and
like him, too, generally on the winning side.
He now takes the most out-and-out stand for
Seymonr and Blair and the Constitution. We
make the following extract from his long and
able letter :
“ Wbat sort of peace is to be expected in
the South so long as white people are pro
scribed and negroes allowed to govern, may
be safely inferred from the condition of those
reconstructed States, Louisiana and Tennessee.
Their Governors and Legislatures are calling
for military aid, avowing their incapacity to
maintain peace and entorce the laws by the
civil authorities. If this be so, it is conclusive
proof that Congressional reconstruction, as
means of tranquilizing the South, is a failure.

The road to peace is in another direction. Let
Congress retire within the limitations of the
Constitution. Let them abolish their oaths
and remove all their disabilities. Let them
restore to tbe President his legitimate fane
tions, and allow his pardons to have their
Constitutional effect. Let thenr strengthen
instead of weaken the Judiciary, aod snstain it
in the full exerc se of its powers for the pro
tection of both the white and the black.
“Wipe out as with a sponge your ex post
facto legislation, and restore to all the States
their Constitutional rights. Bo this, and yon
will have peace. The men whom you now
hold disfranchised and have pushed to the
verge of despair, will become yonr sureties for
the preservation of peace and the restoration
of order.
“Reverse the picture, and what are the
prospects of this country ? Attempt to sus
tain these negro governments by force, and
you reduce the proscribed white men to de
spair. Your army, instead of being reduced,
must be doubled. The taxes, instead of being
diminished, most be increased. If Congress
cannot (as they have not) prevent an increase
of onr frightful national debt in times of peace,
what mountains must be added to it by a re
newal of war ? And in the anarchy which
must ensue, what is to become of our republi
can institutions?”
“Tas Man os Horseback.”—The last of
the “dissolving views" of thq New York
Herald is the “one-man” on ‘*a charger.”
That paper says:
As the first result of the American election,
the people of tbe United States wijl have
chosen a new President for four years. Many
thousands ot men of a different race, just
liberated from slavery, will vote, and a lor-
ther disturbance of the constitutional eqni-
finffi must follow the election of either of
the candidates now before the people. How
will it eventuate ? In a one man power or
reunion ? The appearances incline to the
former. We have entered on a revolutionary
era. The coming.elections will; herald revo
lutionary changes in both hemispheres.
CnuBLTX to Stowaways.—The London
Telegraph tells a sad story of the inhuman
ity of tbe Captain of a British steamer. It
appears that last April seven young "stowa
ways" was discovered on board the steamer
when she waa too far ont to sea to send them
back. They were put at work bnt became
sea-sick, and were beaten crnelly and nearly
starved. When Newfoundland came in
sight, the Captain, supposing that the ice
extended in a Solid floe to the shore, _ pnt
six of the boys offj with a biscuit apiece.
He soon found out, however, that there was
a broad, open sheet of water between the
floe and the mainland. The Captain of
another ship rescued four of tbe six, two of
them having died—one from exhaus
tion and another from drowning. When
the steamer returned to Scotland the story
had got out, and the Captain was only saved
