AND JAMES GORDON BENNETT.
Mobile, October 11, 1868.
The announcement, of the death of Howell
Cobb, so suddenly and unexpectedly, has oc
casioned considerable regret here, as it will
throughout the South, where he was so well
and favorably known. It also enables your cor
respondent to repeat a conversation held witli
the deceased in August last, and in doing so it
is to be hoped that no one will regard the act
as lacking in respect tor the dead. Two visits
to Macon anil one to Athens for the purpose of
seeing Gen. Cobh had failed in their object, but
the tourtli was successful. Ail acquaintance
passing over a period of several years brought
a cordial welcome, and after matters of a purely
social and personal nature had been discussed,
the real purpose of the visit was introduced.
“General,” I remarked, “as 1 have before, I
once ugain desire to have your views on the
political situation. Your speech in Atlanta liut
month is being used by the Radical newspapers
with considerable effect, and I desire to know
if the sentiments attributed to you by them are
really yours.”
“ I do Dot care what the Radical newspapers
of the North say about me,” he replied. “ That
speech of mine in Atlanta was the first I deliv
ered since the war ended, and if I was-abused
when I kept silent wiiat need I expect when I
do say something. I have written a letter de
nouncing the manner in which my language
lias been misconstrued. I desire peace as
earnestly as any man in the country ;1 have ac
cepted the situation and intend to adhere to
the terms of my parole faithfully, but I will
never accept the kind of peace proposed by the
Radical party. We are either an integral part
of the Uuion or conquered people. If the first,
I claim the same rights tor Georgia as New
York possesses ; if the last, let us understand
it fu'.ly, so that we may decide among ourselves
on such a policy as will in the future lead us lo
liberty. But this halfway measure will not
suit the Southern people. Constitutional
amendments and legislative enactments which
make political outcasts of some of our best men
and which reduce to a state of political vassal
age the |whites of the South will not bring
about a lasting peace.”
“ But I tbonght, General,” I remarked, “that,
you were at one time in favor of the lonrteeuih
amendment to the Constitution.”
“So 1 was, Captain, for a little while,” he
answered. “ Luckilly I did not so express my
self publicly, for after giving the amendment a
careful consideration I saw that it would not
do. I regard that amendment as the most
dangerous encroachment upon the reserved
rights of the States that has yet been attempted
,by the party in power.” The General then
gave his reasons for this opinion, which were
mainly that it gave to Congress almost unlimit
ed power over"the States in the matter of suf
frage and representation. It was, iu his opin
ion, a direct blow at our system of govern
ment.
“ What, then, do you propose as a means of
restoring peace and hcaiiug the differences be
tween the two sections ?”
“ An abandonment of every measure of re
construction and a recognition of every South
ern State as an equal of every Northern State.
Unless this is done there will be no peace and
cannot be any. The Southern people were
earnest in their efforts to restore the Uuion
alter hostilities bad ceased. Had they been
met in a friendly spirit we would now have
been a united people and the Southern soldier
would have fought aside ot the Northern sol
dier, under the same banner, against a foreign
enemy, with as much courage and fidelity as
he did for independence. This feeling is al
most dead in the South. Radical legislation,
with its military and civil despotism, has em
bittered our people, and many of them have
begun to look with utter loathing upon a
government which deliberately attempts to
make the slave of yesterday rule men who have
ever possessed the highest order of freedom.
Captain, you arc not so blind as not to have
perceived that there is less Unionism at the
South to-day tbau there hits been at any time
within your recollection. And upon the result
of the pending election depends whether the
Union feeling shall be revived or killed for
ever.” ,
“ And what do yon think of the prospect ?”
“Bad,” he replied. “I am afraid that wo
cannot elect Seymour. He is a good and able
man, but be cannot stem the current of this
revolution. It must reach its climax. Grant
himself will • endeavor to stay it, but he, too,
will be swept away. We bave seen war, blood
shed, partial despotism. We are now Beeing
license in the name of liberty. The next step
is anarchy and a renewal of hostilities, which
will break out at the North.”
“ Ah, General, the same thing was said in
I860.”
Sri-ttlccklu Constitutionalist.
“8o it was, Captain; but the lion was not
armed. Suppose Grant President—and my
private opinion is that he will be elected—and
that will be the result. Congress will be com
pelled to adopt measures for the Southern
States’similar to those adopted in Tennessee; for
nnles the whites of the South are all disfran
chised it will be impossible to make Radical
States of these, and just as sure as we are per
mitted to vote, just so certain are we to destroy
the Radical party. Give us anything like free
dom of speech and of action and we will not
only kill the party here, but, aided by tbe
Northern Democracy, we will kill it at the
North. Tbe Radical leaders know this, and
self-preservation will compel them to adopt
harsh measures for the Sonth. Despotism here
will eventually react upon the North. One
half of this country cannot long remain free
while the other half is in a state of vassalage.—
When the Northern people are made to feel the
same tyranny which we are now feeling there
will be a revolution at tbe North, and it is
merely a matter of time for its occurrence.—
Revolution at the North makes ns arbiters, and
the Radical party will not only be extermina
ted, but the South ’’—here the General paused.
“ But the South ?” I queried.
“ Will be an independent republic,” And
after a short pause he went on : “I may not
live to sec the day, but you may. Jeff. Davis
truly said that although our cause was lost, the
principles for which we fought can never die.
If moderate counsels had prevailed after the
war ended we would have had a lasting Union,
bnt our great idea of republican government
would have triumphed in the end. Extremists
have prevailed, and would continue to prevail
for some years to come. Captain, we have a
long and dreary prospect before us ; but I be
lieve things will come out right after ail. But
when freedom comes agarn there will be two
governments instead ot one. In their efforts
to prevent tbe possible chance of a Southern
Confederacy the Northern Radicals are so act
iug as to make one inevitable.”
“ But, General, do you not think that if the
Radicals attempt to go any further Grant will
use his influence against them and call upon
the Democracy to aid him ?”
“No ; I don’t believe that Grant has auy very
great popularity. It Ben Wade had been the
candidate for the Presidency, he would not
have received a vote less than Grant will. I re
peat that the progress of this revolution can
not be checked or hurried on by any particular
man. God knows I sincerely wish that the
prospect w’as brighter, but to me at least it is
very dark.”
The conversation then turned to various top
ics, until reference was made to ex-Governor
Joseph E. Brown, when General Cobb said :
“Do you remember, Captain, that while I
was in command of the troops below Griffiii,
in the Fall of 1864, you-speut a night with me?”
(The speaker referred to the time when Sher
man was in Atlanta, and just before he started
on his march to the sea.)
I bowed an acquiescence.
“Do you also remember that in speaking
about this man Brown I predicted that if we
were whipped he would be one of the first to
go over to the enemy ? You see for yourself
how my prediction has been fulfilled. Joe
Brown is one of the most contemptible char
acters in the country. Elevated into positions
of honor by the Democratic party, he lias
treacherously slabbed it now that it is not in
power, and he will treat Radicalism in the same
way as soon as it fails lo give him office. 1
look upon him as * * * to the United
States Government. Time will tell whether he
is sincere in his present professions.
The conversation again changed, and various
subjects were discussed, when the New York
Herald and its proprietor, Mr. James Gordon*
Bennett, were spokeu of. Geu. Cobb said of
Mr. Beunett:
Squares.
1 1 Week.
’ 2 Weeks.
' 3 Weeks.
’ 1 Month.
1 2 Months
' 3 Months
' 4 Months
: 5 Months.
; |o Months.
“ I regard Bennett as the. greatest man in po
litical life that this country has known. Placing
aside the financial success of bis paper, he has
had the moral courage to say as he pleased
without iniuringße circulation of his journal
one copy. He is very inconsistent, it is true,
and I believe frequently allows bis paper to
pursue a policy that he does uot personally ap
prove of. But be is a man ot genius and will
have no obscure page iu tbe history of the
country.
“ General,” said your correspondent, as be
rose to leave, “ although this conversation has
been of a purely social character, may I "publish
all of it or such portions as you may name?
Asa prominent Southern man your views
would be«tf considerable interest to the public.”
.“ No, uo. Captain,!' h« said, -“.You.must-not
publish anything that I have said. I do not
wish my views used to injure tlieSouthern peo
ple. They are suffering enough already. Some
of these days,” he continued, bumarously,
“ when I am dead and gone, if the fulfillment
ot my predictions makes what I have said of
interest, you can publish them. Ah, Captniu,
times are much changed. A few years ago a
man could publicly say what he thought, audit
was called freedom of speech ; now an open ex
pression of opinion is called treason.”
As he concluded General Cobb shook ray
hand with his accustomed warmth and 1 took
my leave. That was the last time I saw him.
Whatever his enemies may say of Howell Cobb
it is none the less true that a more noble
hearted, generous, genial and hospitable roan
never lived. The views given in the foregoing
are published now because I had his permission
at a time when he never expected that his death
was so near at hand. They may or may not be
of interest. It is, however, to be hoped that if
tbe super-loyal gentlemen who edit Radical
newspapers discover anything of a “ disloyal ”
character in what he said they will abstain from
any attack on the dead, now that
Praise and blame fall on Ids ear alike.
[From the New Orleans Picayune, 26tli.
The New Orleans Emhrogllo.
About ten o’clock, last nifflit, as the Work
ingmen’s Club were serenading at the residence
of Mr. Thus. Hare, 165 Pojdras street, they
were passed by the Grant Colored Club, march
ing down St. Charles street. As soon ns the
Workiugmen finished their serenade they re
sumed their march down St. Charles, about
forty paces in '.he rear of the. negroes. From
there to the corner of Canal the uegroes con
stautly assailed them with offensive and insult
ing epithets. Anxious to avoid a difficulty the
white men ho re their taunts in silence, and pre
served a demeanor which utterly precluded the
idea of any hostile design.
Reaching the corner ot Canal street, tlie Col
ored Club divided, a part going up each side
of the neutral ground, so as to keep the Work
ingmen constantly in their rear. This insult,
too, was put up with, uutil Caroudelet street
was reached and passed. About half way
between Carondelet and Bai-ome streets, the
negroes halted, and a part of them turned back,
and thus brought their men face to face with
the white club.
At this juncture a negro broke from the
ranks of his own club and rushed into the ceu
tre of the white club, shoutiug, at the top of
bis voice, “ Come on, let’s clean them out 1”
It was not in human uature to endure all this,
certainly not in the nature of men, smarting
under recent outrages and taunts borne in si
lence for an hour. A shot was fired by a negro
lrom the rauks of the returning party, which
cut through the cap of a gentleman named
Richardson. It was then that the white men
returned the fire, and a general engagement en
sued. There was a wild rush, a fearful ming
ling in a death struggle of the white and black
element, and a quick and rapid discharge ol
fire-arms all along the liue. The angry throng
bent and swayed in the mad struggle, and men
were locked in a passionate embrace which
held the issues of life and death. Above the
moan and shout of the angry combatants the
sharp reports of pistols sounded like the
echoes of a skirmish line before the continuous,
roar of battle breaks on the car. It was scarce
ly a minute, and yet blood ran red on the
streets, and dead negroes lay stretched ou the
ground. It was scarcely a second’s time before
six lay dead on the street, and two more were
borne back by their fellows mortally wounded.
The negroes fought wildly, aud were evidently
in mortal dread at the terrible retribution they
provoked. The white men, on the contrary,
were skilled in the use of arms, and most of
them had before kept 6tep and line in the fury
of the battle. They were not alarmed at the
shout of the parti colored foe, for they had
seen hostile pennons bend and shake in a me
lee when men died by hundreds. They knew
that the time had come to teach a lesson, and
the least show of temerity would stimulate the
negroes and their cowardly associates to drench
the city in blood. There was, therefore, no
giviug back and no wavering in the conflict.
While the head of the column of the Work
ingmen were thus engaged, the rear formed
into line and marched to their support. It was
at this moment the negroes fled. Broken and
discomfited they ran in every direction. Al
though they had provoked thecouflict.and had
been themselves the assailants, yet the attack
ceased the very moment that resistance was at
an end. They were not pursued, and no ad
vantage taken of the victory gained. Through
out the conflict the negroes numbered two to
one. It was this excess of forces, no doubt,
which incited them to the attack. They knew
the white men had borne in silence taunts such
as they were not accustomed to endure, and
believed that they could with impunity advance
another step in tbeir hostile aggreeakJM, and
perhaps prbvoke an jencotmtgr
redound to their advantage. In tbia they were
mistaken. Short ot actual violence, arrythiug
would have been put up with; but the people
of New Orleans had too long and too seriously
suffered from the brutal insolence of negroes,
urged On as they are oj? cowardly whites, to
permit tbeir rights as citizens and tbeir very
manhood to be trampled iu tbe dust. When
assailed, they had a right to resist; they did no
more.
The conflict began at the’corner of CSronde
let, and extended as far up Canal as Burgundy
street. Here it ceased.
As far as beard from, at 12'o’clock last night,
six negroes were killed, two mortally wound
ed, and one slightly injured.
Among tbe whites a Mr. Richardson was
wounded in the head slightly by a bullet; a
newsboy named Dooley was shot in the wrist,
and a man named Ryau injured in the leg by a
spent ball or glance shot.
A few minutes after the riot ceased a large
body of negroes, numbering about four hun
dred, marched np Basin and Rampart streets,
from Congo Square, where a large Radical
meeting had been held. They had evidently
heard of the disturbance and bad come to par
ticipate in it; but before they reached the scene
all had become quiet. They offered no violence
to any one, and went on their way as if nothing
had happened.
At tbe present moment, 12 o’clock, all appears
to be quiet in the city. The streets are com
paratively free from crowds, and no sign of a
disturbance appears in any direction.
LATEST.
At midnight the wildest excitement prevailed,
and rumors flew thick and fast of conflicts in
various portions of the city. A company of
United States cavalry patroled the streets, but
it would have taken an army to have kept order
in the excited state of fmblic feeling. At tne
corner of Thalia and Camp streets a conflict
occurred between a mob of negroes and a few
white men, in which one white man was shot
through tbe body. He ran as far as the corner
of Magazine and Melpomene streets, where he
fell. Another white man was shot and slightly
wounded on Triton Walk.
Large bodies of men are gathering at almost
every street corner, talking in angry excitement.
The feelings of the populace seem thoroughly
aroused, and it is not improbable that a couflict
may again occur. It certainly will if any con
siderable body of negroes appear on tbe streets.
A Dumb Oracle. — When the Chinese living
in Ba,i Francisco first made public their pur
pose to erect a Buddhist temple in that city;
there occurred a very lively discussion in the
newspapers regarding what was assumed to be
the danger ot permitting the introduction of
idol worship as a recoguized institution in a
Christian community, and some of the writers
strongly urged legislative interference in tbe
matter. It was argued that the hare fact of the
existence oi an organized system of idolatory
in this country would he prejudicial, at least,
to the interests of civilization, and perhaps re
garded by other civilized nations as evidence of
our failure to main tain the principle of reli
gious liberty without risking the ongruftmentof
heathenism upon our varied stock of religious
theories. But public opinion did not respond
to the alarm, and “ John Chinaman” proceeded
to build bis “ joss house ” and make his offer
ings of pork and poultry before graven images
of wood and stone, and curiosUy-srekiug
Christians crowded the temple on high days
and holidays to witness the novelty of pagan
worship.
It does not appear that the huge wooden
monster exhibited in the temple has had any
demoralizing influence upon Christian society
in San Francisco—at least no instance of a con
version from Christianity to paganism has
been chronicled. And perhaps public senti
ment i3 correct in relusiug to accord sympathy
witli the fears of those persons who believe
.they see in the Chinese enterprise at San
Francisco a plot to heathenize this country.

The Earthquake at San Francisco.— On
Wednesday morning there was a great earth
quake at San Francisco. Hardly any house es
caped without more or less of damage, and

places the earth gaped asunder and large jets of
water were thrown up. property

Some of the papers areata loss to conjecture
what was the particular cause of this earth
quake. Seeming to attribute such disturbances
to the action of volcanoes, and there being none
in -active eruption now in tbe region immediate
ly around San Francisco, they are discussing
the reason why this phenomenon has appeared
in that particular spot.
There seems to us to be nothing mysterious
about it more than in all other earthquakes.—
The whole chain of the Rocky Mountains .and

Hymenial Etiquette—A few days since a
young gentleman and young lady appeared at
the parsonage ol an cminet clergyman of this
city, for the purpose of having their respective
destinies united in the holy bonds of matrimo
ny. Everything being ready, the clergyman
aforesaid was about to proceed with the cere
mony, when the yonng lady discovered that
she was minus the kid gloves so neceesary on
such occasions; whereupon she requested her
affianced to hasten to a store and procure the
indispensable kids, telling him to “ be in a hur
ry or she might change her mind.” The cler
gyman, witnesses, and intended bride waited
some time for the return of the youth with the
gloves; he didn’t come. They waited longer,
and still lie failed to put in an appearance. The
matter at last becoming really serious and
alarming, the clergyman took his hat and pro
ceeded, post baste, in search ot the truant
lover, whom he found, alter a diligent search
and many inquiries, quietly seated on the ve
randa of the Park House, with his feet eleva
ted on the back of a chair and very deliberately
puffing a cigar. On being asked to explain his
singular eonduct, he carelessly remarked that he
“ was waiting to see if she was going to change
her mind.” They were married, however, at
last, after two hours’ delay.

TVould Not Sing Hymns.—Dr. Norman
McLeod, in bis account of bis visit in India,
given in the Assembly of the Church of Scot
land, said :
I one day met one of the ten missionaries
from America, and I asked him why he didn’t
belong to the great body ol the American por
tion of the churches laboring in India. He re
plied that there were differences between them
that could not admit of uniom
“ Bray,” I said, “ wbat are these differences ?”
“ Well,” be said, “ there is one tremendous
thing— hymns.”
“ That is as worthy a man as lives—a most
excellent mau.” I then asked if he would not,
in consequence ol those diflerencts, worship
Jesus Christ with them.
“ Yes,” he replied, “ under the protest 1”
I could not help saying that this was the
worst Brahmanism I had ever sceu in India.
On a New Tack.—The Johnson Democratic
organ at Washington, notwithstanding the New
York arrangement that Seymour henceforward,
in behalf of Seymour, is to stump it on anew
platform, leaving General Blair entirely out in
the cold, 6till iusists upon the withdrawal of
both Seymour and Blair as the only salvation
to the Democracy. Os course this means that
the organ in question is tacking about towards
Grant, and in view of being inside the distance
mark in reference to the incoming administra
tion. Johnson goes out on the 4th ol March,
and business is business.—JY. F. Retold , 21*f.
A New York paper, in speaking of a recent
operatic performance in that city, says: “ Some
of the toilets last night were very rich ; and
one lady, in rather extravagant powdered hair,
penciled eye brows, and artistically painted
ehecks, attracted a great deal of attention. —
Bonnets were worn, however, by most of the
ladies, and the full opera style of dress was not
generally adopted.”
Three police officers arrested a man in Brook
lyn, on Tuesday, for disorderly conduct, and
were assaulted by a mob of 200 men and women
with bricks, stones and other missiles. Two
of the officers were severely injured, but held
ou to their prisouer, and an accidental dis
charge of one of their revolvers caused the
crowd to scatter, leaving one of the ringleaders
in the hands of the police.
