“ERROR CEASES TO BE DANGEROUS WHEJNI J8EASOR IS LEFT FREE TO COMBAT IT-Jefferson. VOL. XIY. ATLANTA. GEORGIA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1L 1808. NO. 245. |!mU) gntdligcnm*. PUBLISHED DAILY AND WEEKLY BY JARED IRWIN WHITAKER, Proprietor. ATLANTA, GEORGIA. Wednesday Morning, Oct. 14, 1868. Forney’s Last Forgery-Card from Geo. Howell Cobb. New York, October 3d, 18G8. To the Editor of the World : A Iriend has just placed in my bauds what purports to be a speech of Mr. John W. Forney, ot Philadelphia, and I ask a place in your col- uin'S to notice a statement made in relerence to myself, which 1 cannot permit to pass uncontra dicted. Mr. Forney read as a part of his speech, and gave to the country with his indorsement, the following letter, as I find it in liis published remarks: After reading Cobb’s speech, I thought it my duty to let the people North know how cruelly he acted toward a young Union prisoner at An- dersonville prison,'in September, 1864. Among the many thousands confined in that dreadful place, was a young man by the name of Cabel. He was born in Florida, and during the ad ministration ot Cobb at Washington, this young man held a position as clerk in the Treasury Department, and, although a native of Florida, he did not desert his post, and go South and enter the rebel party, but, on the contrary, enlisted as a Union volunteer in a regiment raised in the District ot Columbia or thereabouts. In the spring of 1804 he was taken prisoner in Virginia, and soon found him self within the stockade at Anderson ville. Oh ! the world only knows from pens and lips the horrors of that prison pen. Human eyes that saw the suffering there, can only realize the ap palling facts ot the amount of misery within that place. Soon after young Cabel entered the prison, he became a companion of mine. 1 shared my little cave with him, and did all to encourage his hope; yet I soon saw he began to fail, and I knew that as soon a as prisoner began to give up, his days were but few. I pointed out these facts to him, and the necessity ol keeping up a good heart. Yet, the treatment to us was so barbaroos that, in spite of all the strength and will of this young man, he but lingered along between hope and despair. But when he learned that Howell Cobb was within the vicin ity ot the prison, and would soon visit the place, his hopes were high. “ Duty let me see Mr. Cobb,” he said; “I know be will remember me, and get me exchanged or get me free.” A s soon as it was known that Mr. Cobb was inside the stock ade, young Cabel, with my assistance, mustered strength enough to appear before him. At first Mr. Cobb paid but little attention to him, but when be mentioned to Cobb ot bis (Cabel's) brother being formerly a member ot Congress from Florida, then it was that Howell Cobb proved the human demon. Again scrutinizing young Cabel, he said : “ Ob ! yes, I know you, and know about your brother you speak of; both of you have proved false to your Southern du ties—you are both traitors to the South, and I can only wish that your brother were here to share your lot.” Young Cabel seemed to stag ger under these cruel remarks, and as Mr. Cobb was about to leave, young Cabel appealed again to Cobb if he wouid not try to get him free; could he not, at least, do something to mitigule his sufierings—he showed Mr. Cobb his emacia ted arms and body—the dreadful sores upon bis leet as they seemed ready to drop Irom the ankles from rottenness. At last Mr. Cobh said : “C&bel, I will do nothing for you unless you re nounce your allegiance to the U. S. Government, and, as soon as you are able, join the Conled- erate ranks—as you are Southern born, I de mand this ot you—or trouble me no longer.” As soon as Mr. Cobb had finished his hellish words, young Cabel truly stood up in the position of a soldier, and manly and bravely replied : “Mr. Cobb, this is asking too much of me, and although if I comply with your request I may be saved from a horrible death here, I feci that I cannot, for liberty and life, desert the flag I was born under and swore before God to defend. Oh 1 no, Mr. Cobb, do not ask so much ot me. And let me ask you, Mr. Cobb, it you were a prisoner in the Union lines, and such proposi tions were offered you, what would you say”— but before Cabel could finish the sentence, Cobb, in a pompous manner, said : “What would 1 say? Why, if the United States Government, under such circumstances, were to offer me not ouly liberty, but fame and power, I would say dig a hole large enough to contain me and my lamily, and before 1 would swear alle giance to the United States Government 1 would take my family' by the hand and walk into the hole and be buried front sight forever.” These are his exact words, not only heard by mysell, but by many other poor creatures that were listening, and talked ovei in many a gloomy circle. After Mr. Cobb had finished his supposed brave remarks, he turned away to leave lor another portion of the y ard, and poor Cabel w T enl back to our little rave and threw himself upon the ground, Com pletely overwhelmed in grief and despair ; spoke oi ly of the "cruelly of Mr. Cobb, how little lie expected it,” etc. When Mr. Cobb was seen re turning from the lower part of the yard, young Cabel said, “1 must try strength to make one more appeal to him, yet 1 feel that 1 am dying; it will be a dy ing man’s request; maybe be will be kinder this time. I am sorry now that I spoke of my brother. Cobb so bales a Union man of Southern birth—1 wish I had spoken of my mother; oh ! my mother, couid you but know my condition—but look around, how 1 many there are like me, that have mothers now mourning for their lost ones. Yet Mr. Cobb, a former friend of mine, my brother and family,will let me die here because our lamily loves the old Union.” In this way young Cabel spoke until Mr. Cobb came near our cave, and as Cabel attempted to ga before Mr. Cobb to speak, he was rudely thrust aside by the guard. Cabel stood and watched Mr. Cobb until be left the yard, and then quietly going to his place of rest, threw himself down, seeming to care for no one. Many poor creatures that, came to look at him couid but pity, nothing else had they to give but kind words of hope—yet so well aware were they of the last despair of prisoners, that all said that the “dead trench” would soon be the last resting-place ot Cabel, and by 9 o’clock the next morning the only thing of that dear young boy was thrown into the dead cart. He died during the night. I only know that he was alive about 10 o’clock, as lie seemed then to be delir ious, aud I knew, or at least felt, that his last momenta were drawing to a close on earth. In a letter from Hon. A. H. Stephens, of Georgia, published last winter, he made mention of the case of thb same young man Cabel—how he had written to Mr. Cobb but got no answer, and then wrote to the War Department at Rich mond, but before they paid the least attention to it he learned that young Cabel was dead, and here he let the matter rest. My old comrades, don’t forget these facts, and, above all, don’t for get the human suffering at Andersouville and every other rebel prison and in the name of jus tice and humanity and for the future ot the beloved country, vpee against Horatio Seymour. T. E. Davis, L&le 48th Regt. N. Y. S. Vol. I desire, in the most emphatic and uncondi tional manner, u> pronounce the statement of this letter, so far as they refer to mysell, an un mitigated fabrication from beginning to the end. There is not the stightesl pretext upon which it can rest. Neither to this Mr. Cabel, nor to any other prisoner at Andersonville, or elsewhere, did I ever use the language imputed to me, or anything at all resembling it. No one who knows me will credjt the charge lor a moment. It is not my nature qr disposition to treat any body-much less a helpless prisoner—in a man ner so cruel aud ^Seeling. John W. Forney M knows me, and he knew at the time he pub lished this letter to the world that its statements were not, could not, be true. I make this une quivocal denial to protect my name in the esti mation of those who, unlike Mr. Forney, do not know me. Whatever else may be said of me, cruelty or unkindness to prisoners can in no instance be charged against me. On the con trary, I can say with truth that during the war no prisoner ever made a request of me, which it was in my power to grant, that was not promptly responded to, and there are those in Mr. For ney’s own State who will bear testimony to the fact. Allow me to add that the statements in this letter bear internal evidence of their falsity. Mr. Cabel, the former member of Congress, whom I am made to denounce as a traitor, &c., was my personal friend, and was with the Sontli during the whole war, and in the Confederate army at. its close. If he ever had a brother in the Federal army, I never heard oi it. The Andersonville prison was never in my command, nor under my control, but the guard employed there was detailed from my troops, aud this occasioned the three visits I made to it. On one of these visits I received a message from a prisoner by the name of Cabel, from Ohio, that he desired to see me. I applied to the com mandant of the prison to have him brought out of the prison to the quarters I was occupying for the day. The request was promptly com plied with, and I had an interview with Mr. Cabel, who was quite an intelligent man, which lasted for an hour or two. The interview was as pleasant as could be. There was not an of fensive word said on either side, and at the close of it Mr. Cabel expressed to me his thanks lor the manner in which I received and treated him. The only request made of me that I had the power to grant was promptly grauted, and he appreciated it, as he did my whole conduct and bearing towards him in the spirit ot kind ness which dictated it. I have no wish to ex tend this communication by any comments. Howell Cobb. P. 8.—Since writing the above, I have casually met with Mr. Cabel, formerly of Florida, who expressed the greatest surprise and indignation at the statements in this letter, and authorizes me to say that he had no brother or other near relative in the Federal army that he knows of.
