ifn Authentic Account of the (Cast Offi cial Interview between President Da vis and Generals Johnston and Beau regard. Tnc Went Florida Commercial, edited by jfon. S. R. Mallory, who was a member of Mr. Davis' Cabinet, publishes the following inter esting account of the last official interview between Mr. Davis and Generals Beauregard and Johnston: The views of Generals Johnston and Beau regard of the military situation of the Confed eracy on the 15th of April have already liven referred to. At Greensboro’ Johnston fully and frankly expressed to a member of the Cab inet, an old personal friend, his conviction that all further resistance to the Federal forces east of the Mississippi would but augment the suffering and desolation of the country, without the slightest prospect of achieving in dependence, sustaining his opinions by refer ence to the relative positions, power and re sources of the belligerents. “What, in your judgment,” said his friend, “do the best inter* *is of our people require of the Government?” “ We must stop f 'iting at once,” said lie. “and secure peace on the best terms we can obtain.” “Can we obtain terms?” “I think we can,” lie replied ; “atall events, we should rnijkc the effort at once, for we are at the end of the row.” “ Gen. Johnston," said iiis friend, “ your position as the chief of this army, and as the military commander of this department, de mands of you a frank statement ot your views to the President. You believe that our cause is hopeless, and that further resistance, with the means at our command, would not only he useless but unjustifiable, and that we should lay down our arms and secure the best terms we can for our people. 1 will, if you please, state all this to the President, hut I think you had better do so at once, and explicitly “ Gen. Beauregard and I have been request***! to meet the President tins evening,” he replied, “and I will give him my opinions very expli citly. You will not find me reticent upon them.” At 8 o’clock that evening the Cabinet, with the exception of Mr. Trenholm, whose illness prevented his attendance, joined the President at his room. It was a small apartment, som - twelve by sixteen feet, containing a bed. a few chairs and a table, with writing materials, on the second floor of the small dwelling of Mrs. John Taylor Wood ; and a few minutes after eight the two Generals entered. The uniform habit of President Davis, in Cabinet meetings, was to consume some little time in general conversation before entering upon tho business of the occasion, not un fre quently introducing some anecdote or interest ing episode, generally some reminiscence of the early life of himself or others in the army, the Mexican war, or his Washington experien ces ; and his manner of relating and bis appli cation of them were at all times very happy and pleasing. Few men seized more readily upon the uprightly aspects of any transaction or turned them to better account; and bis powers of mimicry, whenever he condescended to exer cise them, were irresistible. Upon this occa sion, when the cause of the Confederacy was hopeless, when its soldiers were throwing away their arms and flying to their homes, when its Government, stripped of nearly all power, could not hope to exist beyond a few days more, and when the enemy, more powerful and exultant than ever, was advancing upon all sides, true to Ids habit, he introduced sev eral subjects of conversation unconnected with the condition of the country, and discussed them as if at some pleasant ordinary meeting. After a brief time thus spent, turning ro General Johnston, he said, in his usual quiet, grave way, when entering upon matters of business, “I have requested you and General Beauregard, General Johnston, to join us this evening, that we might have the benefit, of your views upon the situation of the country. Of course we all feci the magnitude of the moment. Our late disasters are terrible : but I do not think we should regard them as fatal. I think we can whip the enemy yet if our peo ple will turn out. We must look at matters calmly, however, and sec what is left for us to do. Whatever can be done must be done at once. We have not a day to lose.” A pause ensued, Gen. Johnston not seeming to deem himself expected to speak ; when the President said : “ We should like to hear your views, Gen. Johnston.” Upon this the General, without preface or introduction—his words translating the expres sion which his face had worn since he entered the room—said, in his terse,, concise, demon strative way, as if seeking to condense thoughts that were crowding for utterance, “ My views, sir, are that our people are tired of the war, feel themselves whipped, and will not fight.— Our country is overrun, its military resources greatly diminished, while the enemy's power and resources were never greater, and may be increased to any desired extent. We cannot place another large army in the field ; and, cut off as we are from foreign intercourse. I do not sec how we could maintain it in lighting con dition if we had it. My men are daily desert ing in large numbers, and are taking my artil lery teams to aid tl. : escape to their homes. Since Lee’s defeat 11: regard the war as at an end. If I march out of North Carolina, her people will all leave my ranks. It will be the same if I proceed South through South Caroli na and Georgia, and I shall expect to retain no man beyond the by-road or cow-path that leads to his home. My small force is melting away like snow before the sun, and I am hopeless of recruiting it. We may, perhaps, obtain terms which we ought to accept.” The tone and manner, almost spiteful, in which the General jerked out these brief, de cisive sentences, pausing at every paragraph, left no doubt as to his own convictions. When he ceased speaking, whatever was thought of his statements—and their importance was fully understood—they elicited neither comment nor inquiry. The President, who, during the de livery, had sat with his eyes fixed upon a scrap of paDer which he was folding and refolding abstractedly, and who had listened without a change of position or expression, broke the silence by saying in a low, even tone: “ What do you say, General Beauregard ?" “I concur in all Gen. Johnston has said,” he replied. Another silence, more eloquent of the full appreciation of the condition of the country than words could have beeu, succeed*#], during which the President’s manner was unchanged. After a brief pause he said, without a varia tion of tone or expression, and without raising his eyes from the slip of paper between his fingers: “ Well, General Johnston, what do you propose ? Y'ou speak of obtaining terms. You know of course that the enemy refuses to treat with us. How do you propose to obtain terms? ” “ I think the opposing Generals in the field may arrange them.” “ Do you think Sherman will treat with you ?’ ’ “ I have no reason to think otherwise.— Such a course would be in accordance with mil itary usage, and legitimate.” “ We can easily try it, sir. If we can ac complish any good for the country, Heaven knows I am not particuiar as to forms. How will you reach Sherman ? ” _ “ I would address him a brief note, propo sing an interview to arrange terms of surren der and peace, embracing,"of course, a cessa tion of hostilities during the negotiations.” “ Well. sir. you can adopt this course though I confess I am not sangune as to ultimate re sults.” The member of the Cabinet referred to as conversing with Gen. Johnston, and who wns anxious that his views should be promptly car ried out, immediately seated himself at the writing table, and. taking up a pen, offered to act as tue General's amanuensis. At the re quest of the latter, however, the President dic tated the letter to General Sherman, which was written at once upon a half sheet of letter fol ded as note paper, and signed by Genral John ston, who took it, and said he would send it to Gen. Sherman early in the morning ; and in a few minutes the conference broke up. This note, which was a brief proposition for a sus pension of hostilities, and a conference with a new to agreeing upon terms of peace has been published with other letters which pass -d between the two Generals. On or about the 16th of April, the President, his .Staff and Cabinet, left Greensboro to pr. - ct-ed still further South, with plans unformed, clinging to the hope that Johnston and Sher man would secure peace and the quiet of the country, but still all doubtful of the result, and still more doubtful as to consequences of failure.

Some of our exchanges, whose editors ought to know better, talk of a “ movement of Con- j servative negroes.” The language ougt t > be, “negroes moved by Conservatives.” Negroes are not self-moving machines in such matters. In themselves they are neither “Conservative” nor “ Radical.” They are simply what those who manage them make them.
