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. From tht* Now York Herald.

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.

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.

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. • -O- • ll l lls lIV TKLISf* IIA I*ll. Bi>i cinl to the Daily Timka by s. k A. Line.)
