view of tbo true causes of the downfall of
the Southern Confederacy:
Much has been written uud much more
said of tho cause of tho overthrow of tho
Confederate Stales in their great ooutost
for independence. One class, and much
the largest—for it includes the people
who were victorious in the war, uud
those Europeans who watched tho strug
gle with interest, as well as many of tho
{Southern people—ascribe it to the supe
rior population and greater resources of
the Northern {States, Auother, a class of
{Southern people, attribute our defeat to
a want of porsovtruuco, unanimity, and
even of loyalty on our own part, and the
consequent abandonment of the Govern
ment of tbo Confederacy in its efforts by
tho people themselves. In my view both
are tar wrong.
TUE CAUSE OF TUE SUBJUGATION
Of the Southern States was neither want
of wealth aud population, nor of devotion
to their own cause on tho part of tho
people of those States. • That people was
not guilty of the high crime of undertak
ing a war without the means of waging it
successfully. They had ainplo means,
which, unfortunately, were not applied to
the object of equipping great armies and
briugiug them into the field. A full treas
ury was necessary to defray tho oxpensos
of a great war. The South had the means
of muking one, in its cotton aloue. liut
its Government rejected those means, and
limited its financial efforts to printing
bank notes, with which tho country was
soon flooded. The necessity of actual
money iu tho treasury, and the mode of
raising it, were generally understood iu
tho country. It was that tho Government
should take tho cotton from the owners
aud send it to Europe as fast as possible,
to bo boW there. This was easily practi
cable, for the owners were ready to accept
any terms the Government might fix, and
fv-.ulfug lo Europe was easy iu all tho first
j.-irof tho Confederacy's existence. Its
t, iwrmneiit went into operation early in
IV d. wiry. The blockade of the Southern
pons whs proclaimed iu May, but was not
at all effective uutd the cud of the fol
lowing winter; so that thoro was a period
of about twelve mouths for tho operation
of converting 4,000,000 or <1,000,000 bales
of cotton into mouoy. The sum ruisod in
that way would have enabled tho War
Department to procuro at once arms
enough for fivo hundred thousand men,
aud utter that expenditure
TIIE CONFEDERATE TREASURY
would have been much richer than that of
the United States, liy applying the first
money obtained in this way to the pur
chase of arms uud military accoutrement*,
or using for tho purpose the credit which
such an amount of property would have
given, the War Department would have
been able to equip troops as fust as they
could be usseiubled aud organized. And
ns tho Southern people wore full of enthu
siasm, fivo hundred thousand men could
hiivo boon ready and in tho field had such
n course been pursued at the time when
tho first battle was actually fought—tho
lilst of July, 1801. Such a force placed
on the northern borders of the Confede
racy before tho United States had brought
h fourth of the number into tho field,
would probably have proveuted tho very
idea of “coercion.” Such a disposition of
Buoh nn army, and tho possession of finan
cial means of carrying on war for years,
would have secured tho success of the
Confederacy. Tho tituoly adoption of
such a financial system would have se
cured to us tho moans of success, oven
without an extraordinary importation of
arms und the immediate organization of
largo armies. It would have given the
Confederacy a treasure richer than that
of the Uuitod States. Wo should thus
havo had, to the end of the war, the
jpeans of paying our soldiors; and that
would havo enabled such of them as be-
1 mged to tho laboring class to remain iu
tho rauks. This class, iu the Confeder
acy ns in all other countries, formed tho
body of the army. In all tho earlier part
of the war, when tho Confederate mouoy
w.h not much below that of tho United
Stales iu valuo, our troops were paid with
Homo regularity, and tho soldiers of tho
laboring class who had families fed aud
clothed thorn with their pay, ns they had
formerly douo with tho wages of their
labor. And so long as that state of
things continued the strongth of the Con
federate armies was little impaired ; and
thofio armies wore maintained on such a
footing as to justify the hope, which was
general in tho South until the fall of 18UI,
that
WE WERE TO WIN IN TUE CONTEST.
Hut after tbo Confederate currency had
become uluiosl worthless—when a sol
dier’s monthly pay would scarcely buy one
meul for his family—and thut was tho
case in nil tho last period of ten or twelve
mouths—those soldiers of tho laboring
class who had families were compelled to
cbooHO between their military services
uud the strongest obligations mon know*—
their duties to wives und children. They
obeyed the strongest of thoye obliga
tions—left tho army and returned to their
homes to support their families. The
wretched impressment Jaws deprived tho
army of many Valuable men of a class
less poor than that just referred to. Tin’.so
laws required tho impressment of nil arti
cles of military necessity that could not
bo purchased. Tho Government had the
power of regulating tho prices to be paid
by it for all such commodifies; and its
commissioners appointed for the purpose
fixed them much below tbo market values.
No one would soil to tho Government, of
coura», when ho could get from bis neigh
bors twico the Government price for his
horses or grain ; oonsequently the oifioers
of the Government could never purchase,
but had always to procure supplies by im
pressment. No rules for tboir guidance
were proscribed; none, at leas*, that
were observed by them or knowu to the
public, and they were subjected to uo su
pervision. All the propei ty of Confede
rate citizens applicable to jnilitaiy pur
poses was, therefore, under their absolute
control.
TUE RAD AND INDIFFERENT OFFICERS
impressed what they wore called upon to
furnish, iu tho rnauuer le *st iucouvenieut
to themselves, usually uu tho cearest
plantations or farms, or those where op
position was not to be apprehended. The
farms of solduri wore generally under tho
mumgouiout of W.imon, aud Ibanfora unuI . u . n r ccdtii nrDC
were not unusually drawn upon for«ui'ieh HOIVl t*IVl AUt rtn I IL-lz.C.riw,
more than their proportion. Hence it
was not uncommon for n soldier to be
written to by his wife that so much of the
food he had provided for herself and his
childreu had been impressed , that it whs
necessary that ho should return lu ««v*
th«cn from suffering or starvali m. Su -h
a summons, it may well be supposed, was
I'. .’er unheeded. The .sufferings of the
soldiers themselves, produced by the
want of proper clothing, drove many of
the least hardy out of the ranks. Want
of food also is said to have had the name
effect, especially in the army before Rich
mond iu the last winter of the war. It
waa by such CttU,os, nil due to an empty j ■•••J r-rSOci. per cord. 0rd-r.fllle4pron.pt-
