Wlioii tlie Confederate army, under |
(ieiieml Lee. was forced back from
t tie 1 renelies ;it IN'L-i'slmrj;, by the
Fi deral army. President Davis hur
riedly ordered about fifteen million
dollars, the property of the banks of |
Virginia and of the Confederate
States, to be placed on trains at Rich j
moral and sent South, intending to
convey it io thetrans Mississippi De
partment, if possible, thereto make j
a final stand. The treasure n ear
ried down to Charlotte, North Ooroli- j
na, where tlie railroad ended. At ■
1 his plane it was decided to leave tile
money belonging to tlie Bank of Vir
ginia. in keeping of their officers, j
The resi of the money belonging to j
the Confederate Slates was placed in j
wagons, and the retreat continued.
The brigades of (ienerul Basil Duke
and Vaughan, who hud succeeded in \
escaping from Last Tennessee, and
had arrived at Charlotte a few days
before, were placed, under tiro orders '
of General John Breckenridge, to ,
net as uii escort to tlie treasure, and
the command proceeded south until I
Greensboro, Washington county, ]
Georgia, was reached. At. this point]
information was roeeivod tlmt the]
Federal (ienerul, Wilson, laid cap
tured Macon a few miles distant, and
in the line of retreat to tlie trails-I
Mississippi Department. The news I
soon got among the men. They be-j
came demoralized, and a rush was
made for tlie wagons containing the I
treasure. It was divided among,
them, the officers being unable to re-!
strain the men. Among the lucky
ones wore two soldiers belonging to j
Company It, Third Tonnes ee Mount- ]
ed infantry, of Vaughan's brigade,
from Muniii county. Tennessee. One]
of them was named Albert Stevens
and the other we will call ■). T. Jones. [
They liud charge of a wagon contain
ing one hundred and fifty thousand !
dollars in gold ; and when the panic:
spread among the soldiers and the
cry was “sauve uui petit,” they re
tained their presence of mind and
drove off in tlie woods, where they I
divided the money, making some |
seventy-five thousand dollars apiece,
and separated, Stevens taking his to
liis home in Tennessee, where he
buried it, confiding its hiding place
to his mother, a very old lady. Find
ing tlmt it would he dangerous for
him to remain in Tennessee, owing
to the unsettled condition of things
there, the jxjoplc being equally divi
ded on the question of the war, he
went to (ieorgia, where he found
Jones, who had bought asmall place,
and was quietly waiting until it
would be safe for him to return home.
Stevens stayed awhile with Jones
and then went off to another part of
Georgia to visit some relatives; be
fore going, however, he informed
Jones about the hiding of his money,
and his mother's knowledge of its
whereabouts. As soon as Stevens
| was gone, Jones mounted his horse
: and made a bee line for Tennessee,
to the place where Stevens lived.
Arriving there he presented his com
rade’s mother with a forged letter,
purporting to come from her sou, di
recting her to deliver the money to!
Jones, which the old ladydid. Jones]
then started direct for California.
Arriving here he purchased a large]
: tract of land in Mendocino county,]
land being very low at that time, arid
lias since amassed a largo fortune in
addition to his ill-gotten gaines, and ;
i is now highly respected and a mem- ]
her of the church.
In the course of time, Stevens, hav-.
ing ascertained that it would he safe,
! started for home, possibly dreaming
of a future life of ease and comfort oii ]
-omc bhiegmss farm, raising fat eat- j
tie and blooded horses—-this being]
your average Kentuckian’s or Ten
nesseean’s idea of an earthly para
dise. On reaching home he soon
found his loss. Buckling on his re
volver, he scoured the entire South
and AVest.in search of his faithless
friend, vowing to shoot him on sight,
and only recently ascertained his
; whereabouts. He is now in oorres
i pondence with a prominent lawyer
of this city, and an attempt will
shortly be made to bring Mr, Jones
to account through the courts.

was generally in Alabama during the
late political canvass, and testitied as
to nets of intimidation and violence
in connection with political meetings
and free expression of political sen
Itiments by Republicans. Ivev, a
route agent, was killed, but witness

A GOOD WORD FOR THE DEMOCRATS.
Adam Kirk testified that tlie color- •
ed people were told if they voted the
Democratic ticket they would be put |
into slavery ; the Democratic whites
are* just as kind to Republican blanks i
as they are to Democratic blacks;
they employ them just as quick and J
tliihk just as well off hem.
EVIDENCE OF THE AUDITOR.
R. T. Smith, residing at Opelika,
Auditor of Alabama, was the next
wit ness. Ho was asked what was the
reason the Republicans request the
colored men to go to fhe county seat
to vote, lie replied, because there
are, perhaps, some precincts iu which
there are no white Republicans, no
man of intelligence enough to see
that an (‘lection is properly managed
and that the negroes are liable to be
cheated; there were two Republican
factions in Montgomery, and conse
quently a stormy time; there was
very little opposition there between
Democrats and Republicans; there
were two Republican tickets and a
good deal of confusion and strife be
tween these factions; ho had heard a
good deal of breaking up of meet
ings and general disorder among
them.
BURNING CIH KCHES.
Isaac:(Jamobeli, living in the Wa
coochie Valley, testified as to the
burning of three colored churches.
The enemies of colored people want
ed to burn up all the churches; they

HI .A ND EH ING It EPI BLH A NS.
Isaac Hoy man, IT. S. (Commissioner,
having bocii asked whether he knew
of any attempt to coerce Democratic,
voters into voting tlie Republican
ticket. He testified that he did not;,
hut t hei i’ was a general spirit, such a
spirit as could hardly be described.
It, was of a general nature it was one
of abuse, vindication and uncalled
for slander of Republicans—it was a
part of the programme, on the part
of Democrats, to make Republicans
as odious as possible, so far as they
could do it by speeches or any other
means they might employ to accom
plish that object.
A BLACK DEMOCRAT.
Ham Keller (negro) testified that he
was turned out of a Republican meet
ing because he said he was going to
vote the, Democratic ticket; the white
people had always treated him with
great kindness, and he thought they
treated colored people with more
kindness than they ought to have
done, considering the way they have
been treated by the blacks.
Wills Ferry (negro) was discharged
by his employer because lie would
not vote the Democratic ticket,.
“not the kind to speak.”
H. A. < 'ampbell (negro)testified that
lie had been a Democrat five years;
then* was a row on the 25th of Sep
tember, at Montgomery, between the
two factions of the Republican party,
'and one colored man was killed; fn
! Bullock county the Democrats were
| not allowed to speak at the public
: meetings.
Q. What was there to prevent you
from speaking?
A. They said it was not our turn
and we could not speak ; we were less
in number and we would not perse
i vero.
O. What reason did they give?
A. They said we were ruining the
county as Democrats, and we wen*
not the kind to speak any way at, ail,
and we would not insist upon it. He
further testified that the Republicans
broke up another Democratic meet-
ing in that county about the 29th of
September. John Rennet came up
and said to Cfl&sar Shorter, one of tin*
speakers, “ You ought to be ashamed, ’
and he (Bonnet) drew a weapon on
him and said ho could whip him, and
did strike him one or two licks, which
resulted in a row.
Q. What did ho say lie ought to be
ashamed of?
A. To control the other negroes to
be Democrats, and said, “We ought
to hang you. and if I had my way I
would do it, at another place called
Limekiln, in the same county, they
were broken up entirely. Witness
and another man who intended to
speak were shot at twice.
WOMEN NOT TO MARRY DEMOCRATS.
In Chambers county the colored
men formed a society to prevent
women from marrying Democrats
and to advise tlie separation of hus
band and wife where the husband
was a Democrat and exclude Demo- j
eratie negroes from all society; a
similar organization existed in Let' j
county; the members of that society
had h pledge that a woman would :
leave her husband if he was a Demo
crat, or a young woman would not
marry a man if in* was u Democrat,
in Montgomery county, a preacher
of the Methodist- Epis<H)j>al Church
deprived the secretary of the salary of
his office' because he was a Democrat, i
and stopped another man from being j
a deacon of tlie church for the same
cause.
(,>. What is the spirit among the
colored Republicans hero against the
colored Democrats? is there proscrip
tion or ostracism?
A. Yes, sir, tlie ostracism is very
great, so great that we do not speak
when we meet them, and they do not
treat us properly in our different so
cieties; witness addressed white
Democratic meetings and with white
Democratic speakers; took his meals
at the same table with Democratic
speakers at the hotel.
AN EX - A TT OH N E Y GENERAL.
Benjamin Gardner, ex-Aftorue>
General of Alabama, testitied that he
was a Republican; that rotten eggs
were thrown by whites at a meeting
where lie was speaking; it was his
deliberate opinion that if it were not
for tlie violence, intimidation and
proscription the Republicans would
nave 20,000 or 25,n0n majority in the
State.
The remainder of the evidence is of
a similar character.

Me.Jordan:— l take great pleMure In recom
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, It
lias produced a most wonderful relief in one of
the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter
over haa had. She ban been treated for it by
three skillful phyrdoiauH, with very little bcnoAt,
and used all tno usual remedies with little sue-
I eoss. I ean with much coutldeuoo hope for a per*
i mauout cure. It ia only two days since wo began

I benefit. Yours, with respect,

for Neuralgia bus been tried in my family, and j
with the most happy result,and I flud in it all you j
claim for Its virtue. And I unhesitatingly re- j
commeud it to all who are suffering from Neural- I

tivo power. .J. D. WORTHY.

Dr. J. L. Jordan-- Your medicine, Joyous
Julep, iu without an equal for Neuralgiu. Having I
been a great sufferer from the pain, aud having i
tried the prescriptions of many physicians, yet
all proved of no effect until I tried four doses
of your .Julep, when I was immediately relieved, i
ami have not been troubled since.

Dr. J. L. Jordan— Please send me another hot- j
tie of your Joyous .Julep lor a friend. I have I
never lound anything equal to it lor Neuralgia.;
Two doses cured me almost instantly, and I can
safely recommend it to do what you say.
