question. It is unnecessary to
and liWrty, to meet in a national mass wel
come and council to be held in this, the Feder-
al Capital, on Saturday, December the first,
proximo.
•• A\'e ask your presence to honor and assure
protection to the loyal majority in the Thirty-
ninth Congress, in whom we recognize faithful
guardians of our assailed institutions, and able
supporters of the principles involved.
• • Cbm« m your might! By your presence show-
how sternly loyalty can rebuke treason. Prove
thereby that the thn-ats and insults of a treach
erous Executive against the Legislative branch
of the Government cannot intimidate a free 1
people. Here in the Federal Capital must our
great struggle culminate in wise and equitable
h-gislaiion. Here, then, should wc assemble
to encourage and strengthen Congress, to whose
hands the Constitution wisely entrusts the
review the
whole history of the controversy. A our atten
tion is invited to n point in it when a renewed
attempt at amicable adjustment between the
part bn, after repeated failures, was agreed upon,
and to what ensued. You arc aware that,
having been unable to agree, yet unwilling to
protract the controversy, the particR resorted ; power—to such just action as will make peace
to a suit in theSupreme Court of the U. States, permanent and liberty universal
in the progress of which the Government was
made a party. At this stage of the case the
Governor of Florida proposed tliat the terminal
points of the. then existing line Ik- agreed upon ;
that a line be run from one to the other by
two comtifctaioiier*—one to lx? appointed
each Kioto—and that the line bo run be entab-
1 inlicd ob the boundary. By resolution of the
27th PecerolK-r, 1857, the General Assembly
accepted the proportion in regard to the ter-
minnl points, and in a commendable spirit
declared that Georgia would adopt either the
then cxistihg line between these |>oints, or any
other that might be surveyed and marked by
virtue of law and the joint action of the two
States. Authority was given by the same act
to the Governor to appoint a competent survey
or to run out and mark distinctly such a line
Ik:tween the designated points, in conjunction
with a surveyor to l»e appointed by the State of
Florida. In pursuance of this agreement,
Guxtavus J. Orr was appointed by the Gover
nor of Georgia, and W. Whitney by the Gov
ernor of Florhla, to run and mark said line.—
Whilst these surveyors were engaged in the
work assigned them, the General Assembly of
Georgia, by an act assented to 16th December,
186!J, enacted “that if the State of Florida
shall duly recognize, and by Jaw declare, the
line now being run by the joint surveyors'Of
Florida and Georgia, that is to say-, the first
line run by them from the western to the east
ern designated terminus, as the permanent
Itoundary line between the two States, that the
said line is hereby recognized, adopted and
declared, on the part of Georgia, as the true
and permanent line of boundary ; provided,
nevertheless, on the eastern terminus it does
not depart one-fouTtli of a mile from Ellicott’s
mound.”
The line was run out and marked, and its
eastern terminus did not “depart one-fourtli
of a mile from Ellicott’s mound." Indeed,
the variance being reported as only twenty-
four fee.t, is inappreciable, ami for all practica
ble purposes the line may be taken to have
terminated at that mound.
It would seem, then, that nothing more was
wanted to bind Georgia to this line thau Flori
da's recognition of it by legislative enactment.
Whilst this survey was in progress, the Legis
lature of Florida enacted a law, approved 22d
December, I860, of the same tenor and effect
with the above recited act of the State of
Georgia.
After the completion of the litse, the Legis
lature of Florhla passed resolutions, approved arrest or conover — affidavit or -t
February 8th, 1861, referring to the above Act.
declaring the Hue run by Surveyors Orr and
AVliitner ns the permanent boundary between
the States, and authorizing the Governor of
that .state to issue a proclamation to that effect,
provided that by authority of tlic Legislature
of Georgia the same thing Ik: done by the
Governor here. I transmit herewith a copy of
these resolutions now on file in this department,
authenticated by the great seal of the State.—
By the 17 th and 21st section of the Code, which
was mode the law of Georgia, first by an adopt
ing Act approved December 19th, 1860, and
secondly by the 6th clause, 1st section, and 5tli
article of the Constitution ordained and estab
lished by the Convention of I860, this identical
line is "declared to he the boundary between
Florida and Georgia. Surely, this should have
ended the controversy. The State of Florida
so holds. 1 respectfully submit that, the State
of Georgia must so hold, unless she determine
to ignore a law enacted by her legislature, and
solemnly recognized as law by her people in
Convention nearly five year* after.
I regret to add, however, that thcYicneral As
sembly, by resolution, assented to Dec. 11,1861,
re-opened the controversy by providing for the
appointment of Commissioners on the part of
Georgia, and requesting the appointment of
Commissioners ou the part of Florida, to hold
further conference ou this vexed question.—
The Legislurure of Florida, with commendable
patience and friendly consideration, acceded to
the request. Commissioners were appointed on
both sides and entered into conference in the
month of December, 1862. Msssrs. Wright and
Krskine on the part of Georgia, proposed that a
line known as the western line be adopted ns
the boundary. Messrs. Banks and l*apy, on
the part of Florida, declined the proposition,
and insisted that the previous action of the
Legislatures of the two States had established
the Orr and Whitney line, and so this effort
ended without changing the status of the
question.
I have already adverted to the difficulty
which occurred in regard to tax returns. Ac
companying this communication will be found
a copy of a letter from the tax collector of one
of our border counties to the Comptroller Gen
eral, stating his embarrassments and asking
instructions; also a copy of a letter from a cit
izen of Georgia to myself, stating that the

The National Intelligencer of Sunday says :
“ We are pained and shocked to announce,
from many sources of reliable information, that
the above call looks to the establishment here
tit permenanrt of an organized force, to l»c subject
to the orders of Congress. What they may be,
and what disastrous calamities impend over
our beloved country, heaven only knows. But
the ferocious counsels of Butler, Wade and
Forney may be carried out by the 4 sword smo
king with blood)' execution.' ”
The following is the conclusion of another
card, which also appears in the Chronicle, and
the signers to which we take to l>e negroes.
It is doubtless a part of the plan shadowed
forth in the above call :
“ We intend to go earnestly and actively to
work with the view to demonstrate that * irt
kuotc our rights, and, hunting, fare maintain them.
It is our purpose to give this labor an organ

The Great Conspiracy.
A. HOARSE.
The efforts of the officers of justice to get
hold of Sanford Conover alias Charles A. 7 n-
lmm, who has played such a prominent part in
the alleged conspiracy of Jefferson Davis against
Mr. Lincoln, have been successful. Judge Ad
vocate L. C. Turner visited New York a few
days ago, the United States detectives have
succeeded in capturing him.
The following is tlie affidavit of J. A. Hoare,
which is confirmed in its statements by that of
Win. H. Roberts and Judge Advocate Tumor,
who testifies to the existence of the fabricated
manuscript now in possession of the Judiciary
Committee of the House of Representatives:
Washington City, District of Columbia, ss.—J. A.
Hoare. being duly sworn, deposes as follows:—
On the 4th day of November, A. 1>. 1805. my
deposition was taken in the name of William
Campbell, at the office of the Judge AdviK-ate
General in the city of Washington, relative to
the assassination of President Lincoln, and
tlie complicity' of Jefferson Davis and others
therin ; 1 made such deposition at the instance
and by tlie procurement of a man who assumed
tiie name of Sanford Conover, hut whose real
name "was Charles A. Dunham ; the said Cono
ver, alias Dunham, fabricated—wrote out the
statement he desired me to make ; 1 committed
it to memory by his advice and with his assis
tance, and then, in company with him, went to
the office of the Judge Advocate General, and
there repeated it to Judge Holt, and he wrote
it down and 1 verified the same as my deposi
tion ; the said deposition was wholly untrue
and false; was fabricated by the said Conover
alias Dunham, and I made the same by his
procurement; after making said deposition,
the subject matter of the assassination of Pres-
dent Lincoln and the alleged complicity of
Jefferson Davis and others therein was duly
referred to the Judiciary Committee of the
House of Representatives, said Judiciary Com
mittee being duly and legally appointed and
empowered to make said investigation, and in
obedience to a subpoena issued by said Judi
ciary Committee and served' upon me. I ap
peared before said committee in Washington
city, D. C., on the 8th day of May, A. D. 1866
and then and there, being duly sworn by the
chairman of said committee, did testify, in the
presence and hearing of said Conover, alias
Dunham, that the deposition made by me at
. . .tlie office of the Judge Advocate General, as
disputed belt lias devolved upon him, and ask- ! aforesaid, “is false,” and that the “matter
ing in which State he shall seek the necessary ■ presented” or statements made by me. in said
authority for so doing. These appeals present
in strong light the evil of keeping the question
open. Other and perhaps more serious diffi
culties will occur in the progress of time if a
finality be not given to it.
deposition was not made by me, but was fabri
cated by the said Conover; the said deposition
was read over to me, and in the presence and
