Denunciations of Jeif. Davis and his Cab- inet. Mr. C. B. Richardson has just published a literary curiosity—a History of the War of the RebeNion—written by a Virginia rebel, and printed-and published some months ago jn Richmond. Mr. Pollard, the author, wrote several years ago a book, which he called “Black Diamonds,” as an untidote to Mrs. Stowe’s Uncle Tom. His style there was more remarkable ter vigor than forelugance; uad we perceive no improvement or change in that a cv in the present volume. He complains that— * The honest record which he has attempted of the truth of history has been encountered by many unjust, ignorant and contemptible crili- | } cisms, emanating mainly from fayorites of the | gov mment and literary slatierns in tire de- ments. The author has made no attempt to conciliate either these creatures or their mz ters; he is not in the hab:lef toudying to great ewspapers; he is under no obligations an living to flatter him tell lies, or thing trom the honest con victious He proposed to write an inde- Ty of some of the events of the He is willing lor thus work to be tarule of paid panegyric avo houest duces the level of the his scrubs and scribblers who wr pulls it newspaper corners. «The ters idea of the history of the preeene ¥ ld no donb: be H THMEAL with prai: © people of the Sou : tomake, fo: ’ of wil the.small trash in the army; to criticism which exalt ad irnth. 5 to hid: while eg mention ecat his prifs thickly with fine writing and | tremendous adjec whol a ves: and to place over the ded. miss of falsehod rson Di ss the second » to judgment. he has jon to gratify in these li: ‘ead in tthe s) © of our Govern- #-i0n, with whic States has teemed.

This was the position of Missouri, to whose convention rot a@ single secessionist was elected. Gov. Price was elected from his district as a Union man, without opposition, on the assem. bling of the convention was chosen its Pres- ident.” Mr. Pollard’s account of the battle of Bull Run is the best tribute yet paid to the bravery of cur troops there. He admits that if it had not been for the arrival of those reinforcements H which Patterson onght to have engaged, the rebel army would liaye been beaten. COMPLAINTS OF THE RERELS. ; He thus compzres the merits of the Goyern- ment aud of the rebel leaders : «The Washington Government was actual- Ty collecting an army of half a million of men. The Richmond Congress replied to the threat of nuinbers by increasing its army, on paper, | to four hundred thousand men; and the Con- federate Government, in the midst of 2 revoln- tion that, threatened its existence, continued to rely on the wretched shift of twelye months? volunteers and raw miliuia, with a population that, by the operation of couscription, could have been embodied and drilled into an invin- cible army, competent not only to oppose in- vasion at every point of onr frontier, but to conguer peace m the dominions of the exemy. “The nniversal mind and energy of the North had been consolidated if its war upoa the South. The patriotism of the nation was broadly invoked: no clique arrogs and mo- nopolized the poe of affairs; no fayorite closed up against thé million outside the aye - nues of patronage, of honor, and of promotion. it was a remarkable circumstance, that the North had, atall stages of the war, adopted the best means for securing specific results.” He charges the loss of Koanoke Island upon Mr. Benjamin, then Rebel Secretary of War. He says: “The public were, at least, not prepared for such an exhibition of trust aud honor as was given Mr. Benjamin by the President, in actu- ally promoting him after the developments of the Roanoke Island disaster and siving him the place in his Cabinet of Secretary of State. ‘Whatever may have been the merits of this act of the President, it was at least one of ungraci- cus and reckless defiance of the popular senti- ment, and trom the marked event of the sur- render of Roanoke Island andits consequences, we in ate the period when the people had their contideuce weakened in the Goyernmeay and found no otherrepose for their trust than in the undiminished valor and devoted patri- etism of the treops in the field” In another passage he speaks of —“a President with one hand sacrificing two brave officers who had contributed to the country’s glory and safetyin more than one victory, for a military punctilio, and with the other elevating to the highest office in his gifta mun who, as Attorney General, Secretary of War, ana, at Jast, Secretary o! State, seemed to enjoy the monopoly of the lucre and honors of State, and who had been charged, by the ofli- cial reporvOf a (seneral in the field, and by the deliberate unanimous verdict of 2 com- mittee of Congress, with the plain aud excln- sive responsibility of the disaster of Roanoke Isjand.” al iF.

Price—Turee Ornts, And the conduct of the Confederate Congress, Here is a in which he describes thea: personages, and the tableau is a striking one. Those who baye atiributed superior intellect und engacity to the Rebel mt or to his Cabinet will find how much they have been mistaken in their opinion : “Untortunately, however, President Davis Was not the man to consult the sentiment and wisdom of the people; he desired to signalize the intallibility or his own intellect in every mnessure Of the revolution, Bnd to identify, tran motives of vanity, his own personal genius with oats ¢ event and detail of the re- markable period: of in which he had heen called upon to act. This imperious con- con seemed to swallow up every other idea in Dis mind. na what was scarcely more than a corstimutionzt fiction, the President of the Coufecerate Stutes was the head of the army ; but Mr. Davis, while he mace hinwelf the sn- preme mastt ? of the Civil administration of the Government, so far as to take the smallest de- tails within his control, and to reduce his cab- inet officers to the condition of Head clerks, insisted also upon bring the autocrat of the army, controling the plans of every General in the field, and dictating to him the precise _ limits ofevery movement that was undertaken. “Many of our Generals fretted under this pragmatism ef an Executive, who, instead of attending to the civil affairs of the Government and correcting the monstrons abuses that were daily pointed out hy the newspapers in the | conduct of the departments, was unfortunately possessed with the vanity that he was a great military genius, and that it was necessary for him to dictate, trem his cushioned seat in Rich- mond, the details of every campaign, and to con-‘orm every movement in the field to the in- variuble formula of ‘the defensive policy.” “In a revolutionary leader something more is wanted than scholarly and polished intellect The history of the world shows that, in such, circumstances, the plainest men, in point of lenrning and scholarship, have been the most -necessinl, and that their elements of success have been quick apprehension, practical judg- iment, knowledce of human nature, and above all, a disposition to consnit the aggre; is dom of the people, and te increase the of jndement, by deignine to learn from every possible source of practical wisdom within ihcir reach. “ President Davis was not a man to consult, even in the smaliest matter of detail, the wis- dom of others, or to relax his purposes or per- sonal preferences, at the instance of any con- j sideration that mightcompromisehim in respect. of conceit or punetilio. About nothing con- nected with the new government had the pop- ular will been so clearly and emphatically expressed, as the necessity of a reorganization of the Cabinet. Nobody expected those offices to be permanently filled by the provisional appointees. They were pnt there under an emergency; in some instances simply as com~- pliments to certain States, and without the slightest expectation thatthey wonld be imposed on the country for seven long years. Had the Vnion continned, and Mr. Davis been elected to the Presidency, the selection of such a Cabi- net of intellectual pigmies from the nation as large would have astounded the public The two great branches of the adminis:ra- tion—the war and the navy departments—were in the hands of men who had neither the re- spect nor the confidence of the public.

The destruction of the Merrimac he mentions as a bitter pill to the rebels. He blames Davis for that, tpo, and gives the following curious stories in proof; «low tar the Government was implicated in this foolish and desperate act, was-never openly acknowledged or exactly ascertamed; but, despite the pains of official concealment, there are certain well attested facts which in- dicate that in the destruction of this great war ship the authofities at Richmond were not guiltless. These facts properly belong to the history of one of the most unhappy events that had occurred since the commencement of the war, . “The Virginia was destroyed under the im- mediate orders of her commander, Commodore Tattall, a little before five o’clock on the morning of the i!th of May, in the vicinity of Craney Island. During the morning of the same day a prominent politician in the streets of Richmond was observed to be very mneh Gejected; be remarked that it was an eyil day for the Confederacy. + On being questioned by his iutimate friends, he declared to them that the Government had determined upon, or assented to, the destruc- tion of the Virginia, and thathe had learned this from the highest sources of authority in the Capital. At this time the news of the explosion of the Virginia could not have possibly reached Richmond : there was no telegraphic commn- nication between the scene of her destruction and the city, anc evidence appears to be com- plete that the Government had at least a pre- vision of the destruction of this vessel, or had assented to the general policy of the act, trus:- ing, perhaps, to acquit itself of the responsi- bility for it on the unworthy plea that it had yen no express orders in the matiar, ‘Acain, itis well known that for at least 2 week prior to the destruction of the Virginia, the evacuation of Norfolk had been deter- mined upon; that, during the time the removal of stores was daily progressing; and that Mr. Mailory, the Secretary of the Navy, had with- in this period himselt visited Norfolis te look atter the public interests. The evacuation of this port clearly involyed the question, war disposition was-to be made of the Virginis. «ff the Government made no decision of & question which for a week stared it in the face, it certainly was very strangely n®glectful of the public interest. If Mr. Mallory ‘visited Norfolk when the evacuation was going on, and never thought of the Virgiuia, or thinking of her, kept dumb—never even giving so much a8 an official ned as to What disposition shouid be made of her—he must have been even more stupid than the people who laughed at iim in Richmond, or the gmembers.of Congress. who- uicknamed without mercy, thought him to be.” & Gov.
