I **•§ died that,” interrupted General TftflWH ” "You are mistaken,” aaid Mr. Hill. "You did help carry tha election, but that ns comparatively eaay work. Every elec tion in Georgia under reooaatruotion baa really gone De moo ratio. Tbe great point ns to hold the Legislature after eleoting k. This was the hard task I undertook, ia! in it 1 received no help either from ay friends or anybody else, and muob state frosa you and nearly everybody aha. True, the Badieals bad paeited a bill iipreariy tq enable them to oarry the elec- ttoo. But they,'as I had reason to know, kd determined, if they failed to Meet a Legislature, to make up one, as they did la 1870, by turning out elected Democrats ud putting in defeated Badieals. This (Sort was made. I was up to the hilt in that fight. Grant refused to interfere and tha .Sort failed. Evan Bullock then aban doned it. This is tbe debt we owe Presi- dint Grant.” Mr. Hill then proceeded with a state nut of facta on this subject, to which tha whole meeting listened with the oloe- ait attention. He eaid he examined care fully tha sources of Badioal power in Georgia. They ware two—“internal robberiu and external Federal protec tion." Tha revanoas from their robberiu vara derived from the State Boad, and their issue of bonds and thair hypothec - flu in New York and elsewhere. The fused* waa to gat the State Boad out of thair hands, and prevent another reoon- ■trootion of the Legislature, and thus atop the issue of bonds. The only way to pre- edit the reconstruction of tha Legislators via to avoid interference by the Federal administration. How waa this to ba done? Here was the greateat problem. To Its eolation, both honorably and ef fectually, be gave all hla thoughts. Ha tinted tha North twiee to acquaint him self fully with the opinions, pnrposu and tendencies of tha Deuiooratio party. By these means ha fully satisfied himself in 1870 as to what would be the Democratic platform in 1873—that tbs Dsmoorats of tho North would aubmit to any usurpation committed under tha forma of law. If the South resisted, the Democrats would whip us into submission. It wu our bus iness, then, to take care of ourselves and ntbmit to what we did not approve, and ?onld not resist. By taking that position ;e advance, when neither party expected •t, he might for a time be misunderstood by Us friends, but ba would get in a posi tion to be heard by the Badioal anthoiities at Washington, and thus defeat tbe oon- fiaaauea of'Badioal domination in Geor gia, and 1872 would place him; right with Ua friends. Ha explained hid connection *nh the lease; hia business association ™k man for whom ba had no political rtapaet; hia preaenoe an# speech at tha Bajauo banquet; tbe fluey flight of Bul- wok and tha reeoue of the State govern ment, in every department, from Badioal rule, and tha svokUnoe of martial law in 'k*State in 1871.
