President Davison Genral Dee. At a meeting ©t Confederate soldiers j and aailorylieid at Richmond last Week, Hon. Jefferson Davis was present and spoke. He is reported b/ tl» Dispatch, as follows: •. ■ • '* As Mr. Davis aroee to walk to the stand every person in the house rose to his feet and there followed such o «torm of ap- planso as seeming to shake the very foun dations of the building, while cheer upon cheer was echoed from the throats of veterans saluting one whom they delight ed to honor. Mr. Davis spoke at length, and with his accustomed thrilling, moving .elo quence- We shall not attempt, at the la to hour at which wo write, to give a full report of his address. • * • Ho adeemed his heaters as “Sol hers and Bailors of the "Confederacy, com rades and friends: Assembled on this sad occasion, with hearts oppressed with the grief that follows the loss of him who was our deader on many a bloody battle-field, a pleasing though mebuicho- ly spectacle is presented. Hitherto, and in all times, men have been honored w lieu successful, but hero is tho case of one who, amid disaster, went down to his grave, and those who were his com panions in misfortune have assembled to liouor liia memory. It is as much an honor to you wbogive ns-. to him who receives, for"iboVe thfi vulgar test of merit you show yourselves competent to discriminate between him who enjoys and he who deserves success. “Robert J3. Lee war j»y associate and friend in tho military academy, ~ and we were friends until tho hour of his death. Wo wore associates and friends when he was a soldier aud I was a Congressman ; and associates and friends when ho led the armies of the Confederacy and I pre sided in the Cabinet Wo passed through many sad scenes together, but I cannot remember that-thcro was ever ought but porfecV harmony between us. If ever there was difference of opinion it was arced, and I may add that I never in my life saw in him tho slightest tendency to seUseeing. It was not his to make a re cord, it was not his to shift blame to oth er shoulders; but it was his with an eyo lixed upon tho welfare of his country, nevor faltering, to follow the lino of duty to the end. His was thoheart that brav ed every difficulty; his was the mind that wrought victory out of defeat “Ho has been charged with ‘want of dash.’ I wish to say that I never knew Leo to falter to attempt anything ever mun could dare. An attempt has also been mode to throws cloud upon his character because ho left the army of the United States to join in the struggle for the liberty of bis State. Without trench ing at all upon politics, I deem it my duty to say one word in reference to this charge. Virginian born, descended from a family illustrious in Virginia's annals, given by Virginia to the servico of the United States, ho represented her in the Military Academy at West Point Ho was not educated by the Federal Gov ernment but by Virginia; for she paid her fall share for tho support of that in stitution, and was entitled to demand in return the services of her sons. Enter ing the army of the United States, he represented Virginia there also and no bly. On many a hard-fought field Lee was conspicuous, battling for liis native State ns much as for the Union. Ho came from Mexico crowned with honors, covered by brevets; and recognized, young os he was, as ono of tbo ablest of his country’s soldiers. And to prove that he was estimated then as such, let mo tell you that when Lee was a captain of engineers, stationed in Baltimore, the Cuban Junta in New York, elected him to be their leader in the struggle for the independence of their native country, They were anxious to secure liis servi ces, and offerod him every temptation t hat ambition could desire. He thought the matter over, And I remember, carno to Washington to consult mo as to what lie should do, and when I began to dis cuss tho complications which might arise from his acceptance of tho trust, he gently rebuked me, saying that this was not tho line upon which ho wished my advise, the simple question wan, ‘Wheth er it was right or not. ” Ho hud l»eeii ••(bleated by tho United States, and felt wrong to accept place iu tbo army of a foreign power. Such was his extreme delicacy, such was the nice feuse of hon or of the gallnutgentleman whoso death we deplore. But when Virginia with drew- - ihe State to whom lie owed Lis first and last allegiance—tho same nice sense of honor led him to draw liis sword and throw it in the scale for good or for evil. Pardon me for this brief defence of my illustrious frieud. When Virginia joined the Confederacy Robert E. Lee, the highest officer in the little army of Virginia, came to Rich mond, and not pausing to enquire what would bti his rank i,i the service of the Ci.nfedemcy, went to Western V rginia under the U lief that ho was still an offi cer of tho State. Ho came buck, carry- by the people whom ho ser ved, for they could not know, ns I knew, that if his plans and orders had licen carried out tho result would havo been victory rather than defeat. You did not kuow, for I would not have known ii hail he not breathed it in my ear only at my yurnest request., and begging that nothing be said about it. The clamor which then arose followed him when Le went to South Carolina, so that it be came nrceesatv on his going to South Carolina to write » letter to the Gover nor of thufState, telling him what man ner of man he was. Yet, through all this, with a magnanimity rarely equalled ho stood in silence, without defending himself or allowing others to defend him, for he was unwilling to offend any one wh i was wearing a sword and strik ing blows for the Confederacy. Mr. Davis then spoke of the straight* to which the Confederacy was reduced, and of the danger to which her capital was exposed just after the battle of Seven Pines, and told lum General Leo Lad conceived and executed the desperate plan to turn their flank and rear, which lifter re yen days of bloody battle, was crowned with the .protection of Rich mond, while the enemy was driven far from the city. Tho speaker also referred to the cii eumstancea attending General Lee'_ crossing the Potomac and the march into Pennsylvania. He (Mr. Davie) assumed the responsibility of the movement. The enemy had long been concentrating his forces, And it was evident that if they continued their steady progress the Con federacy would bo overwhelmed. Gur only hope was to drive him to the defence of their own capitid, we being enabled in tho meantime to ro-inforce imr shattered army. How well General Lee camedoul that dangerous experiment need not be told; Richmond was reliev ed, tho Confederacy was relieved, and time was obtained, if other things had favored, to reinforce tho army But, said Mr. Davis, I shall not at tempt to review tho military career of our fallen chieftain. Of tho man, how shall I speak ? Ho was my friend, and in that word is included all that l could say of any man. His-qualities rose to the height of his genius. Self-denying • always intent upon the one idea o! duty; a ware cf the straights to. which we were reduced, ho said: “With my army in the mountains of North Virginia I could canty on. this war for twenty years longer.”— His men exhausted aud his supplies fail ing, ho was unable to carry out hi* plans. An untoward event caused him to antici pate the movement, and the army of Northern Virginia was overwhelmed. Bnt in tho surrender lio anticipated con ditions that have not been fulfilled—he expected his army to bo respected and his paroled soldiers to be allowed the enjoy ment of life and property. Whether these conditions lwve In-en fulfilled, let others say. Here he now sleeps n the land be loved 60 well, and that Lind is not Virginia only, for they do injustice" to Lee who beliete he only fought for Virginia. He wm ready to go anywhere, on any service for the good of his country, aud his heart WM at broad, as the fifteen States strug gling for tho principles that our fore fathers fought for in the Revolution of 1776. Ho is sleeping in tlie same soil with the thousands who fought under the earn© flag, but first offered up their lives. Here tho living wo? assembled to honor his memory, and.there tho skeleton sen tinels keeps watch over liis grave. The citizen ! the soldier ! this great general this true patriot! left behind him th. jCrownmg glory of a true Christian, His Christianity enoblcd him in life, and af fords us grounds for the belief that hois beyond the grave. "while wo mourn the loss of the great and the true, drop we also tears of n >athy witn her who was Lis helpmeet o—the noble woman who, while her bttsband was. in the field laiding the Army of tho Confederacy, though an in valid herself, passed her time in knitting socks for tho marching soldiers! A woman fit to bo tho mother of heroes— and heroes arc descended from her.— Mourning with her. we con only offer the consolation of a Christian. Onr loss is not his, bnt ho now enjoys tho rewards of a lifo well spent and a-nover-wovering trust in a rise a Saviour. This day we unite our word*, of sorrow with those of the good and great "throughout Christen dom, for his fume is gono over the water -—his deeds fill bo remembered; and when the monument wo build shall havo crumbled into dust, his virtues will still live, n high model for tho imitation of generations yet unborn.

Alfred Richard- they stylo a froedtaan of this conuty, who was elected at the bayonet election of 18G8 ns a member of the Georgia Legislaturo from this couuty. Wo have tuken pains to ascertain the facts, as far as practicable. It appears that, one night last week, a crowd of men cawo into 'SYatkinsvillo-—nobody know ing whom they were, or from whence they came—and, after whipping om more negroes, were attacked by a num ber of negroes in Wat kinsvi lie. Both parties fired a number of shots, and the melee All. .Richardson was hit in the leg, as wo learn, with shot. So far from being murdered, he is not even danger ously wounded. Tho negroes report that they hit one or more of the “Ku Klux,” as they call the unknown party— having heard one say ho was shot and found blood on the ground. In common with all good citizens, regret the occurrence; but are satisfied, from all the various versions \re havo beard of it, tliat tho citizens of Watkins- ville had nothing to do with it. Since the foregoing was written, wo learn that tho freedman, Alfred Richard son, acknowledges that ho fired tho first shot. This case serves to show tho avidity with which tho Bullockites pci vert tho truth.—Athens ((in.) Watchman. W. L. Wadsworth & Co., COOK STOVES, ;: V-pirTHS BEST BRAKES IN THE UNION.
