It ts but jort that this should be done to counteract the highly colored ang inflammatory denunoiations contained in the letter of General Dix to the Hon. Charles J, Foiger, Chairman ef the Senate Judiciary Committce, of the 11D of April instant. ‘That General Dix is honest, slnoore and zealous in what he considers his duty Iam too well satisfied of to contro- vert; but that he is mistaken in the facts as regards Mr. Clapp; that he has exceoded the authority conferred upow him tn making the arrest; that -there is no Jaw to justify it or facts to warrant it, are propositions two clear for argument. The facts, as they will soon be developed, on a trial where he can be heard ip his owg bebaif, will fally snatain the above statements, unless all’ Jaw is set at deflance, and military power sweeps away” all those safeguards which have heretofore (unt! within: the last few months) protected the property and unerty Of the citizen, Since the commencement of this-unforlunate war Mr. Clapp has been a strong Union man and a warm supporter” of all the measures of the government, even that whicts deprived the citizen of the inestimable right of the benefit: of the writ of habeas corpus, He is a man of large means, accumulated by a life of industry. He was the Senatorial candidate for the Ninth Senatorial district of the Union party at the late election. An order for the arrest of Mr, Clapp was issued by Geveral Dix on the 22d day of February last, predicated upon rumors and suspl+ cions. Shortly after the arrest J called upon Gen. Dix, and told him that my client was ready and willing to disclose, under cath, all the knowledge be had in relation to facts connected with recruiting at Lafayette Hall. T also stated that in my interview with Mr, Clapp he had Informed me that he had no knowledge that would implicate any one in the frauds alleged to have been perpetrated there; that the only knowledge he had on the subject he ob- tained from the public prints and public rumors. I offered bail such as should bo perfectly satisfactory; I asked for, a hearing, and expressed my opinion, as bis conpec!, that such hearing would chango tho opinion of General Dix, and result in my client’s discharge—an opinion which I still entertain, The requests were mot granted, To this day neither Mr. Clapp nor hie counser knows of any epecific charge against him; and neither the report to the War Department nor that to thé Hon. Mr. Folger contains such charge. If all the facta stated in the report and in the letter were embodied in, an affidavit, and an application for au order of afrest ap- plied for, predicated thereon, no judge of a State or federad court would grant the ordor. All that is stated by Gen. Dix might be true, and yot Mr. Clapp be entirely ignorant’ of any participation in the frauds, His opinion as to Mr. Clapp’s complicity does not constitute bim guilty, or lay the foundation for arrest, "That frauds were perpetrated on recruits at Lafayette Hall, and in every other section of the country where re. cruiting bas been gotng on, are facts about which there can be no controversy. These frands, to a greater or lesser extent, always have been and always will. be per- petrated, Occasionally at Lafayette Hall they were detected, aud when they were General Spinola promptly caused the arrest of the perpetrator, and compelled him to diegorge his ilegotten gai Recruits were brought to Lafayette Hall from ev section of the country. This was encouraged by the Doard of Suptrvisoge. They allowed the runners to make. their own bargai ith the recruit,as they had a perfect right todo. The object was to got the men as speedily as possible. They were using city money, and not gov~ ernment money, for that purpose; and with its payment and manper of distribypjon government Leyden Is bad no right to interfere.
