Johnston at first thought that this general statement would cover all that he cared to say at present. While he seemed entirely com jewed ^t was evident thal the republicatiou of these charges had at least stirred up some unpleasant recollections, stud when it was suggested to him that nl though tbe charges were published, as he slid, in lStk*. and answerea by him in l.sTJ, the fact that they were again published by Jcilerson Davis himself might make it well for General Johnston to make a more ex plicit statement than n mere reference to his ■iook of 1872. lie assented to that view. “One charge, in brit f.

In the legislature of Georgia in 1825 there were nine young men, all for the first time. Not one of these was more than twenty- five years of age. They were Joseph H. Lumpkin. H. O.

A!1 of them, save tuat noble specimen of a man, John 1*. K’ng, are in tn»-ir graved; have completed tbe:r thsti nies and made their history, and are at rest. AU were to some extent successful; ail were useful in their lives; all were honorable, and some were • inineut. It is of one of these I propose to wri te— Joseph Henry Lumpkin—saus peur et, sans reproache, aud tne one whose career ami use!uiue.-s was quite equal with that of any man of his day. The Lumpkin family was a distinguished one in the early history of Georgia, and especially the immediate family of John Lumpkin, the father oi Judge Joseph H. Lumpkin. His was a large family, consist ing of ar.umberof sons and daughters, all of whom were remarkable for energy and intellect. Two of the brothers of Judge Lumpkin were distinguished min- isUrsof the gospel—one, Wilson Lumpkin, filled every important office almost in tbe state, at onetime or another of his life, from the chief executive of the stale, mum ber of congress aud the legislature ot the state, and in consideration of his eminent services the state has given his name to one of her couuties Judge Joseph H. Lumpkin was next to tne youngtst son of his father’s family. He was born in the county of Oalethorpe, on the 22J day of December, 1799, and there reared. Iu very early boyhood lie gave evidence of extramfiinary aiMrin and great amiability of character, unY was cor tainly an exception to the accepted opinion, that all great men come out of bad boys His father was a man of means, aud appie t iating the mind a.id character of his ton, determined to give him a tinisLed educa tion, aud comtne.iced it in his earliest boy hood. He received the rudiments of his education at tbe academy in Lexington, the county site of his native comity, then he was transferred to Franklin college, Athens, at an early age. He remained at t his institution until the death of l*re&i lent Findley, when he went to Princeton, New Jersev, where lie entered the junior class Here he met from his own state Waiter T Colquitt, Alfred Iverson, James Rembert i»:id George W. C swford. and from other Mates the late Chief Justice Green, of New Jersey; the late Senator Bayard, ol Dela ware, and the late Alexander Barrow, ol Louisiana, who died in the United S'ates *«._-nitte iu 184G, and that remarkable genius J Stewart, of Charleston, long the very able editor of the Chareston Courier, lu this competition after only eighteen months residence, he won the second honor, the first being taken by Stewart. Stewart was a man o! rare genius, but like too many other men of genius, his habits were net what they shouid have been. He vat too fund of the j uices of the graj»e, but even in his most intricate mo ments his wits never were clouded. Amongst the many anecdotes told of him »s one peculiarly characteristic. Ho had a negro servant woman who waa stout and clumsy. Returning home late one night, a-j he was ascendii g the stairway to his chamber. Charity, the tat negra-s, chtreed to be descending. She tripped aud in her tumble catried Stewart ;o the il^jr beneath and fell upon him. Promptly he exclaimed, “Charity, thou coverest a multitude oi sius.” He was a most brilliant wrtG-r and tiisde the Courier one of the best ard most readable papers in the south. He tl-sbed as a meteor, was as bright and dazzling, and almost as soon extinguished. He d:ed early, but not before he nad established an enviable reputation for great mental ability. When Lumpkin returned after gradua tion he at once eat<redthe office of Thomas W. Cobb, who was then residing in Lexing ton and was a member of congress, and afier a year’s steady w&a-imitted to the bar in 1820 Lexington was then the residence of Stephen Upson and George R. Gilmer Tne:e three—Cobb, Upson and Gilmer— were deemed the ablest lawyers of that part of the state; atd in the sameTcircuit wvre Dune iu G. Campbell, John A. Heard, Gtr- net Andrews, A. 8. Clayton and Edward Payne, equally able. It was to compete pervade the whole community of ins denco. With such a model it would have been remarkable had not Lumpkin profited by it. It is within my knowledge that Mr. Upson felt the most sincere solicitude in the success of Lumpkin, and never icst an opportunity to aid Ima in his profession, or to recommend him to public favor. Almost immediately after he opened an office he went into a* remunerative prac tice. This increased to such an extent that he felt himself secure iu ability t(» support a family, and consummated a mar riage with Miss Calendar Grieves, and fu.- filled an engagement which had existed from their earliest youth Already he had an enviable reputation for integrity and abilities throughout the state. In three S ears from the day ha was admitted to the ar he was in full practice, and admit ted to be the first and most eloquent advoca’e at the bar in the state. In the memorable legislature of 1822 Mr. Upson represented the county of Qgie thorpe, and was the leading spirit of thal session. He was succeeded in the sessions of 18*24-25. but Judge Lumpkin, who at once went to the front as a leading mem ber, aud by all was admitted to be the best spvaktr iu the house. This was high praise for Duncan G. Campbell. Thomas Glascock, William Law aud Robert Augustus Beall were mem ners of the house, and his com peer*. Beall was of the same ege of Lump kin, and tf Lumpkin iiad an equal upou the floor it was Beall. They were the young giants of the state, and public opinion was divided a* to which was the greatest man. Beall was equally fervid in his manner, aud a mure cogent reosoner than Lumpkin, but lacked the magic of voice and manner which was so melodious and captivating iu Lumpkin. Lumpkin was tender and per suasive; B^all, aggressive and command ing. He wts courte»U3, but it was that dis tant courtesy which seemed to emanate from an exalted and c»mts'uuding dignity, but was devoid of that sweetness of manner and persuasive dignity of Lumpkin. Beall was caustic and severe towards an adver sary, Lumpkin, tender and gentle; but noi the less merciless towards his argument, was fair, but indignant aud respectful— altogether his eloquence was particularly the eloqueuce oi the heart, and went to tue heart. It was fervid but not abrupt ant! Hashing. IDall was emotional and time, like tne billows before the tempest, urging and wildly bounding, a< the inter est of h:s theme grew upou his f< which the great iconoclast time shall have no power to ta«r down or obliterate whilst the state and her records shall exist; no name shall, upon the scroll of her fame, be more prominent than that of Joseph Henry Lumpkin. Worn out with the anxieties and fatigues of offic*. his consti tution yielded, andon the 4tiiol June, 1SG7. he died, leaving the entire people tive state to mourn nis men ha/e ever lived more ui«d more regrettcdlv, than JuJge Lumpkin. It were useless here to numerate his virtues They are engrafted upon the minds of every one. It is enough to sny that he was born and lived 11 his life in the state, aad i-j buried within :i few miles of his birthplace; that veil his state in her chiefest office the part of his life, and from his birth to eath the taint of scandal never breathed upon his name. Th°re was never one to say in rebuke, why did you this? He was a man in every manly attribute of manhood; he was a Christian in all the purity of Christianity, and a patriot unde- filed by the euspiciou of insincerity. He *t* made an enemy, a.id yet he was, both judge aud a citizen, always just, ai ways sincere, and yet never offensive. 1 feel that this is but n tligfit titibute lo tbe memory c£ Judge Lumpkin from tue. There wa> but a few days •liir-reuco tn our -•es. We went into the legislature of «i»e state together, beiotiged to tne same party, ed upou the same committees, and l* friends through life, and this is one of the cherished memmies of my life.

Hhea General Gordon resigned his position la “ Governor Brown waa appointed to £11 with tLe9e men, should he locate tive village and commence the practice. But he dared this, aud determined to exst his lot and future life where he was burr, and reared. This competition waa most formidable, aud might have well deterred a more aggressive nature than that of Lumpkin; yet he had telf-reliar.ee. energy anti perseverance, and did not shrink from this competition, but opened au office a: ot.ee in Lexington. Very soon Coob and Gilmer were Comparatively out oi his \ay. C-ibb removed to Greeneaboro, out of his circuit, and Gilmer weut into politics, leav ing tiie field to Upson and Lumpkin. .S ephen Upson was a native ot the town Waterbury, Connecticut. IDs father was it button maker, and established in that town the first button factory ever established in tbe United States; but Stephen had an am bition above buttons, and with tua: stern yankee determination wbica defies ad vex excited his imagination. In all things tiiese two great minds were unlike. Tompkins’s temperament was warm, his feeling deep and sympathetic, his mind lucid, and his heart full of love and tenderness, his tem per was even and forbearing, with an abstract wit of gender How, which hurt friend and made no foe. There was no better balanced mind, no purer soul, no warmer heart. He was not fitted by nature for the turmoil of poll ics. nor the ascerbities of a mangling, disputatious assembly. His feel ings were too refined for this mub aud his nature too sincere for i:s contact. At the conclusion of the session ql the legislature of 1825 he retired from politi arid gave his time entirely to his protessioo. With all his softuets of character, he v.*a full of energy and capable of the closestap plication; w.th ail his devotion to bis pro tension, be found time to cultivate ti.e belles-lettres, and was deeply read in both ancient uud moder > literature, lie read with the same fervid emotion, when reading aloud, with which he declaimed, and wit. a correctness and pathos whicu was very captivating. His close attention and intense study of the law, together with the fatigm country practice, had impaired his health, aud to relax these and rest and recuperate, in 1844 he went wiiu uis wife to Europe. For years there had been a struggle in tht ►tale to establish a high court of appeals. The people were wedded to the system of judicature which obtained iu the suite and were distrustful of change. The e mstitu lion directed the legislature to create such u court, which finally was done. Tins effected in high and prejudiced party times. Both parties were dis rusttul the one of tht other, lest this court, if organiz-td, should be u party tribunal; and though the court was ettabtishtd, the legislatu: refused to apptint the judges. Finally the minority in tim legislature pro posed to the majority, as the c iurt to be composed ot tl ree judges, ii t Would appoint Lumpkin as one, they ut relect two cf the three and the minority i Tne agreement was carried out, and the court waa organized, with Lumpkin a*. Ni-bet of one parly and Warner of tii other. At the time of his appointin'-: Judge Lumpkin was iu Europe, aud in honor was conferred upon him without h kucwltdge or consent. I*, was bv the unan imous vote of the legislature. In thisoilic^ he continued until his death. In the first organiza ion of tue court the judges were appointed one for six years, one for four and one for two. Lumpkin was given the long term. The judges were elective, and through all the long period of Judge Lump kin’s servica at every election he was chosen without opposition, and in consideration of his worth ami abili tits the legislature rhringed the original law, which made all the jnigss equal in title, arid constituted him chief justice. He had removed utt.*r his appointment to tue bench, from Lexington to A'hei s. aud was appointed pTofi ss >r of law in the uni versity. Subsequently he was appointed judge of the court of claims of the United otates, which he decliueJ. In 1849 he was tendered by the Boston cumvittee the place as the American representative of the congress of natioi s. which assembled in Paris. France, uud in 1800 was elected chan cellor of tiie university, but declined. War w«s impending, the entire country was in wild commotion, die courts very existence was iu peril, u:.d the necessity of a firm adherence to principle was to him apparent, uud his ev-ry uetvc was s-.rained to inculcate this m tit. minds of the peo ple. in his private and public acts. H? felt tiie necessity of si i in this efftir:, and this VMS supplied by G jveruor Brown in the {•ppointment of Chm 1* a J. Je-ikins as asso ciate justice of tiie supreme court. No more luting appointment could have been made. Nolao men in the state could so omtnand tiie public confidence aud the public support, a id right uooly did they their duty. This was a trying period upon tiie mi ml aad body oi Judge Lumpkin. He knew tr.e eves of the people of the whole state were "upon him. The war came with all its terrible ciiamttie.-, threatening to disinte grate society by disregarding tne laws fne enemy was in ihe country. uore*s:ram- ed in their vandalism, a-.i restraints were loosed and anarchy threatened in its moat horrible form.

House, Niagara Falls, June 14. —A neat looking, medium-sized, well- dressed young woman arrived here by tho New Yoik Central railroud yesterday morn ing, and registered at the hotel as Mrs. Brown, of New Y’ork. She ate nre-ak- fast, and strolled to tevcral points of inter est. About 2 o’clock in the afieri'-a.ii sho was noticed by Edward Furlong, a carriage driver, and' \V. B. Perry, :t com mercial traveler, on Lur.a island in the act of throwing herparasol into tho water, just at the brink of the American fails. It took only an instant for l he sunshade to be swept over the cataract. Apparently satisfied with the action of the current, she stooped ti’.derthe protecting railing, put something she held in her hand in the bosom of her dre-s, ami began gathering her garments ; round her preparatory to lsepi •.» into the cataract. Meanwhile the persons above mectioned were making all possible haste towards li-r.
