Cobb, I think i; ready to ty or do any thing to accompli! !i*his puiju and i think this expose wilt convince yout r.-uleis that lie Is inclined to be tastier too swiit it witness in his own case, thus damaging if. His statement that 1 propose;! La irm to ship cotton on bis boat is untrue. That a proposition was made to nip- to <bip cotton and withdraw ray opposition, lie. admits, or rather, that Mr. Ayres offered to permit me to take a part of his cotton already on board. With this adinifSion on his p rs, his declara tion that “il Capt. McDullie means to insinu ate that I otiered him the opportunity to ship cottou he simply asserts a falsehood,” is a cheap way ol playing the bully; and his ex pression ol opinion th at such a proposition would have been accepted by mo, is perhaps his honest opinion ol men as judged by him self—tested by his own personal standard of rectitude and honor. For the purpose of developing Cue plans of Col. Lamar and party, after consultation with my friends, and with their full knowledge and approval of my plans and-purposes, 1 remark ed, in the boning of some ol the party, that if such tradiug was permitted and carried on, it was hard that othets should have all the benelits while wo bad none, mul that if we could share the privilege timid would be less ground for complaint. My vein u k had the desired effect—drew forth their propositions and developed their plans. These propositions I were immediately make known t several gen tlemen, who can testify to these facts, and were hold under consideration just loug en ough to got plenty of men together to stop the boat effectually. Col. Lamar, in commenting on my state ment to Gen. Cobb, that he was offered the boat to take him to . Doctortown, on condi tion not to take iliu cotton to trade to the Yankees, says, “the reverse of this is true,’’ and gives ay, a reason for this declaration, the fact that he offered his pledge that the cotton should return with the boat, aufl that Mr. Ayres offered a large bond to,the same effo. t. The tact that ho made the nu dge does not prove what ho thinks it dees; but, that I umld place no reliance on !us pledge. He was a reckless violator of law under the o and Government—notorious for his connection as an African slave trader, with the “ Wan derer" affair ; then, according to common re port, committing an off. nee denounced by the laws of his own ami < v other Christian land as piracy, lie had been stopped hero by me attempting to violate the law; ol tile new Government, against, l r: .; with the onomy. How could I, under the. e circumstances, rely upon his pledge Y Any man acquainted with law know*; that the offered bonds ol Mr Ay tvs, ii lovfeiicd, could not have been collected , and as t.o the time required to unship the cotton from itie boat, it could, in the then sta o «*i the v.un r, have been done in less tliau the u. nit time—cer tainly in as short a time as ’t would have taken to go by private conveyance > and trom Ma con for a written order from Gen. Cobb to carry on the cottou, which Col. Lamar offered to do. • The statement of Cel Lamnr that 1 noted in bad faith with him in going up the street, and ealliug out to friends to get their .guns ready, and that he denounced tne for my duplicity, is not sue. Those aequaiutvd with my charac ter, will be slow to nollevo vhat I ever tamely submitted to denunciation front any man. One word as to the character ot those who Were my associates in this all.y.r l*ol Lamar speaks of them an a “mob" .••crow." All of them are honorable ami y < • n^tt . some of them occupym the m--., social, political and religious posit iouo ki i lie county, whose good name.' cannot 1 o !by s ,»»« a man as ho is ; and m*tu» ol tin -..i t would suffer by a comparison of theii characters with his. It is an outrage that such men should be defamed and villilted tor but doing theii duly ; and the man who does it, should not complain, if he is denounced Tor such conduct. Col. Lamar contiadicis my.assertion that •Air. Ayres did not claim the cottoh nor pro claim his authority tv.un Ueu Cobb to ship it In writing to Geti Cobb l t ad u my mind my lirst interview with Mr. Ayres, m widen ios conversation certainly mi.-, m; and my statement. Up .u reflection, add alter conversation with others who heard Mr. Ayres talk afterwards, I max inclined to believe he did afterwards make assertions just the opposite of Ins first to me While ou the subject of Mr. Ayres. 1 take oc casion to say that his statement as recorded in Gen. Cobb s letter to me, that if pi t mission had been given us here to ship cotton the boat would have been permitted to pays, is, and can b* proven to be, incorrect. Tne allusions tu Gen Cobb’s letter to state ments of Col. Lamar and Mr Ayres t were passed unnoticed at the time, because I was then engaged in discussion of principles with Gen. Cobb, and was not disused to waste time or ammunition in small-r game It they, were very desirous of my. attentions in this respect, I trust they will be satisfied now. There are many“‘other in Col. Lamar's leUen,jß-hi< h it is umii\c-?sary to no tioe. Indeed it is about as full of them as the *pa.e.worddailow. the language ot this article seenis harsh, let it be remembered it was drawn out .by an unOBCbSB&ry attack, and that it is the truth.

In one of the last numbers of the Richmond Dispatch we find the annexed statements in re gard to the strength of our armies, Sc.; also a reported conversation Baid to have taken place in Richmond. They are the Dispatch from the columns of a Northern paper : STRENGTH Os OONTRDEEAXE ARMIES. “On the 4th of #Y-bruary, 1860, tne entire available force of the Confederacy was 152.000 men. They were distributed as follows : Lee’s army 64.000 Bragg, including Hoke’s division 9,000 . Beauregaid and Hardee 22 000 Dick Taylor, D H Hill, Howell Cobb 7.000 West of Mississippi 50.000 Total 152.000 The 22,000 under Beauregard and Hardee iaoiudes the late army of Hood and all the forces which evacuated Savannah and Charles ton. 'i he 9,000 of Bragg includts all the gar rison of Wilmiugton. These 31,000 men con stitute the bulk of the army now under John ston iu North Carolina, withjsuch additions as have lately been made. The 7,000 under Tay lor, Hill and Cobb, are, or were, scattereo through Georgia, Alai ama and Mississippi, part oi i hem constituting the present garrison of Mo biie. Os Hftod’s army the following is a correct numerical statement. Entered Tennessee 47,000 Came out 17,500 Net loss or the campaign 29,500 In East Tennessee and West Virginia there were, in February, but four thousand five hun hred men altogether, and the greater part of them were transferred on March Ist, and there abouts to Lynchburg. REROUTED TESTIMONY OIVBN TO INQUIRING MEM BERS or UONURESS. According to the accounts in the Northern papers a committee of the Confederate Senate was engaged early in the present year, in an inquiry into the condition of the Confederacy. Among the witnesses summoned belore them was G. n Lee, and the following, says the North ern journal, are extracts from his testimony on the 24th of January, 1865 : QuesUon by Senator Hunter —What is your opinion as to evacuating Richmond and with drawing the army to North Carolina ? Answer—ln my opinion it wouiu be a bad mi ument. The Virginia troops would not go to North Carolina; they would go home. Question.—Do you think w£e have troops enough for the next campaign ? Answer.—l do hot. We cannot last tjll mid summer. Question. —What do >ou think of the policy of aiming two huudred thousand negroes ? Answer.—if we are to carry on the war, that is the least of evils; but in such an event the negroes must have their liberty. Question. —Do you think we would sacceed by putting the negroes in the field f Answer.—That would depend on circum stances. Wo could at least carry on the war ior Another year. Question by Senator Hill.—What is the sen- * limeut of the army iu relation to peace f Answer. — It is almost unanimous for peace. The men will fight longer il necessaty, but they believe we caunot continue tho war through another campaign. Question by Senator Graham.—What is your individual opinion ou tho subject of peace ! Answer.—l think the best policy is to make peace on tho plan proposed by Mr. Stephens. Tho people and the country ought to be saved further sacrifices Question by Senator Walker.—ls peace be not made before spring, will you consent to take command of all the armies of the Confed eracy, with unlimited i>owers t Answer —I will take any position to which my country assigns me, and do the best I can ; but I do not think I canaave the sause now No human power can save it. Had I been assigned such a place one year ago, I think I could have made our condition better than it now is. Question by Senator Orr.—You think, then, General, the best solution of our difficulties is to make peace ou the Stephens plan ( Answer. —Yes, that is the best policy now I think the army and the people ought to be saved if all else is lost. More About the Peace Conference —The Now York Tribune in a recent number speaks thus in regard to the late Peace Conference. Whether its assertions are true or not, we are uuable to say. But here th y are : WHAT MR. STEPHENS SAID. When Mr. Stephens came back from Fortress Monroe, he said to his friends that he was uot disappointed at the failure of his mission ; that he knew before ho started, it would fail. Me was now satisfied that Mr. Lincoln would not make peace with Mr. Mavis ou any terms, but he was more sanguine than ever that peace was within reac of the country. He was quite certain we should have peace and au honorable peace before May 1, 1865. This result, he de clared, was in the hands of the people, and if the people desired peace, neither Mr. Mavis nor any other man, nor set of men, would pre vent it. WHAT MR. LINCOLN SAID. The substance of Mr. Lincoln’s language, as reported by Mr. Stephens, was that he could not tieat with Mr. Davis as the leader of a re bellion. That the so-called Government of the Confederate States could not be acknowledged. That he could not treat with the States while they confessed allegiance to and formed a part of Government. But that be was willing to treat with the States separately, or with any number of them, on the basis of the Union and the Constitution. That if peace were restored lie would do all in his power to remit those pains and penalties, to which individuals had subjected themselves by rebellion against the Government That in no circumstances would ho v« dogmas the independence of the Confed eracy, or treat with it as a separate power. That he could not eDter into any truce or arm istice with Mr. Davis as (so called) President ot those States. MR. DAVIS’ INSTRUCTIONS were substantially as follows : • First. That negotiations shall be conducted as between two independent nationalities. Second. That pending the negotiations an armistice of ninety days shall be proclaimed. These instructions were communicated to Mr. Lincoln, but were not entertained as a basis ot negotiation. * WHAT MR. STEPHENS THOUGHT. Mr. Stephens thought that the might form a basis for declarations by Mr Liucoln in his Inaugural on the Fourth of M arch, and that the President would then pTm claim a plan wh ch would be generally td by the States as a basis pf settlement He lMr. Stephens) looks upon'%ny further effort by the Confederate GWvernment towards ne gotiations, or to carry on the war as futile, and unjust to the people and the States. In a word, he considers the functions of the Con miimate-Goserument at an end. MR STEPHENS PLAN FOR PEACE. Mr. proposed : _ First Let Mr. Lincoln issue an address to rho army and people of the South, embodying m that address what he has before said as to peace, md also what passed at his inte;.*view wiiu the commissioners. Second. Agree to appoint commissions rs on the part of the United States to meet State commissioners on the part of such States as desire-to meet atTfashville, Louisville or Cin cinnati. in April or May, to consult as to a peace, on the basis of each State’s returning to the Union upon the sole condition of bbetli ence to the constitution and laws of the Be public Third. An election by such States as shall send commissioners to that convention, of Sen ators and Representatives to the Congress of the United States, to enter such Congress npo a terms with other members of it. an and ! such States to have equality on the lloor of Congress with other States Mr. Stephens believed this plan would se cure the approbation of North Carolina. Geor gia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, and per haps South Carolina and Viiginia. He was j quite sure it would command the assent of at ! least six States. In present circumstances, he ! might reasonably hope it would be still more ! generally adopted. ’[From Danville, Va., Register, April 5.] i THE EVACLATIOB OF HICHMOND. •Persons who left the capital Sunday night and Monday morning, represent that the seene which followed the evacuation of the city b r . our crcops, beggars ail description. To pre serve order and protect the ptoperty of the •itizens who unavoidably remained there, as far as could be done, the Nineteenth Virginia militia under Col. Evans, wsstpiaced on police duty in the city, to await the’ coming of the enemy ; but aocounts state they failed to ren der .any aid or protection to the people what ever. Ou Sunday n ght a mob of the lower classes of the city, composed, it is said, mostly f the foreign element, visited a number of the largest store houses of the city and robbed them of their contents It is affirmed that Main street was pillaged tnd then burned, and that some of the milling establishments were also committed to the flames We have no doubf that a. considera bte portion of that brave cHy has been laid in ashes, and a number of its people insulted, outraged, robbed and massacred. We are told that the people banded together, during the violent proceeding of the mob, and resisted them with force, a street fight ensuing in which several persons were killed. No intelligence has reached us of the enemy’s troops occupying the city. The la6t trains on the Danville railroad which came out of the place Jett Monday morning, and passengers upon them had heard nothing from the enemy. The greater portion of Grant’s army was trans ferred to the southside of James river some days ago. only the command of Gen. Ord, which is composed mostly, if not entirely, of negro troops being left on the north side. This command will enter and occupy the city Some cf our people who are acquainted with the character of Gen. Ord. think they have reason to hope that bis treatment of the unfor tunate people of Richmond will not be so bard and cruel and inhuman, as that whioh has fallen upi n the heads ot our fellow citizens iu some other captured cities. All the specie and other valuables belong ing to the Banks in Richmond was removed from the city on Sunday, and have been car ried to places of safety. A considerable amount of goods purchased by the Btate, lor distribution to the people, we regret to leam, had to be left behind. Al so the archives remained in the city, but we perceive no motive the enemy can have in destroying them, as they will no doubt en deavor to occupy the city permanently and establish a State Government at Richmond under the Federal Union. l’ho newspapers of Richmond, we suppose, ail fell into the hands of the enemy. The evacuation of the city was so sudden and un expe ted—scarcely any one being prepared for it that no time was left for the removal of so cumbrous an establishment as a city newspa per office. AH the rolling stock of the Richmond and Danville railroad, in running order, was saved ou tho retreat trom Richmond A few old cars, not in a movable condition, were left at Manchester. No trains ware captured by the enemy near the Jun -tion, as was at one time reported ; and indeed we do not believe that any body of Yankees had struck the road, at any point up to yesterday evening. The Secretary of War, the Quartermaster General. Commissary General, and a number of other officers of the Government, left Rich mond on horseback, and will .probably arrive at this place to-morrow. Should Gen. Lee establish his lines east of the Junction, we suppose the State Legislature will be convened at Lynchbutg. Tub Oath at Savannah. —A gentlemen from Sa\ annah say the annexed oath is the one administered by the Yankee officials at that place: OATH. I do solemly swear ia the presence of Almighty God, that I will bear true and firm allegiance to the United States of Ameri ca, aud will faithfully support the Constitution and Laws thereof, aud that in this behalf I will to the utmost of my power opposo and discountenance all secession, rebellion and disloyalty and everything looking to a disrup tion of the National Union, that I utterly re pudiate all allegiance to the socalled Confeder ate States of America, or any other power, State or Sovereignty, whatever, that I will not, by word, or act, sign, letter or message, give aid or comfort to any person or persons hos tile to the United States, nor hold any corn-* muuication whatever with such person or per sons except through, with the consent of the prope ly constituted authorities. Ido further promise and swear that I will give to the nearest commanding officer of the United States forces immediate notice of the presence or near approach of any enemy', spy or disloyal person and of all matters that may at a.uy time come within my knowledge in which the interests of the United States are concerned. All th s I do most solemnly, aud sincerely swear, without auy hesitation, mental reserva tion, or secret evasion of purpose in me what ever, pledging my sacred honor, my life, and my property for the due aud full observauco ol this my solemn O ith of Allegiance. . Description of person appended Bather of a Bich Conversation. —ln a late number of, the New York Tribune we find a conversation which that paper says took place between President Davis and Senator John son, of Georgia. We give it as we find it: After the Peace Commissioners had returned from Fortress Monroe, Senator Johnson, of Georgia, visited Mr. Jefferson Davis, and had a conversation with him, of which the following is the substance, as reported subsequently by Mr. Johnson : Senator Johnson—Well, Mr. Davis, your mission has failed ? Mavis—Yes ; I knew it would. And I hope now the recOustructionists will fight Lincoln instead of fighting me. Johnson—But Mr Lincoln, it seems, was not opposed to making peace with the States He only refused to recognize the Confederate Gov ernment. Davis—H’m, turn, h’m. Johnson—l see, Mr. Davis, that you have withdrawn all the troops -from Georgia’ into Carolina aud Virginia What are the people of Georgia to do for protection ? Davis—The people of Gjeorgia have followed the counsels of Goy. Brown and Mr Stephens, and they may now protect thermelves. Johnson —Very well, Mi. President; if you can do without the people of Georgia, the peo ple of Geoigia can do without you. Whsieupon, exeunt by different doors, Davis and Johnson. Thr Situation in Mississippi —The Missis - sippi Legislature weary of outrages upon pri vate rights, by »ea of ‘'ranks,’’ has made the illegal impreasmunt of private property high way robbery, punishable by fine and imprison ment. The fine signifies nothing; but that officer who recently "impressed’’ the two barrels ot whiskey, te likely to be “jugged” for some months Men may learn the diffeience between looking through bras') bars on one’s Cellar and those of iron we sometimes see about country jails and State penitentiaries. The p- ople are heartily tired of these acts of unmixed despotism, of being kicked out of cars, and off railways built with their own money, and being threatened With t4e bayonet if they hesitate to obey some lawless order .of some unknown lawless upstart, whose vanity js the measure of his greatness, and whose habits ot thought are generated by those which he would have men believe were acquired in ter . ible campaigns.— Mississippi Beacon.

From a lady who has just arrived hers from Selma, having managed to escape through t(ie line, we get the iollowing.items of inter est : The following citizens were killed in the trenches : Mr. Small, the Presbyterian minis ter; M. J. Williams, Editor ot the Reporter; Mr. Philpot, Captain It J Harrison was wounded, and a groat many citizens were captured with arms. The following buildings were destroyed by the fire: Halfo Goldsby’s block, from Cun ningham’s drug store to Stephens’ book store; also the residence, store and all the buildings connected with them, belonging to P J Weaver, including the Episcopal Church. The last report from Selma is to the effect that the Federate had not moved from that place, one column whi h started towards Demopolis, and which was whipped back by Jackson’s cavalry Major Win. J, Pollard, C. S. Agent, who went into Selma a few days ago to look after some important papers and other things of in terest to the country and whde there was re ported by some citizen, was arrested at'ouce, aud it was thought he would be sent North as t soou as possible. I learn that he is from At lanta, and has been engaged in our cause since the spring of ’6l, and has rendered most valu able service. It is staled that Major Pollard had on his person $150,000 of Government funds when he was captured. He is spoken of here in the Lightest term- lyoffieeis who know him, and most of them agree that he was too sharp to let the enemv get the money. A gentleman named Phil Weaker, a mer chant, was shot for some remark lie made to the soldiets. VARIOUS ITEMS. T' e railroads at Selma got off a large portion of their stock to Dcmopolis Gen. Taylor left Selma on the last train.— It was fired into by the Yankees as it moved by the city . . Gen. Forrest, during the latter portion of the fight at Selma, fioigted the black fiag. The force which advanced upon Selma was 9.000 mounted infantry, to oppose which For rest had but 1700 men. About seven hundred men were captuied. If Mobile ia evacuated our forces will prob ably go to Meridian. ’ The Federal force investing Spanish Fort, Mobile, is said to be thirteen thousand. Our forces in Spanish Fort can easily escape to Mobile Gen. Buford has formed a junction with Gen. Forrest near Selma. Our forces in central A!.abamba are said to be about twenty thousand men ; that of the enemy about twenty five thousand—fifteen thousand of whom are mounted infantry. Gen.
