® JEFF DAVIS. Ex-Postmaster General Cres- well on Jeff Davis. What Did the Ex-Confederate Chief Say at Stevenson ? A Mooted Point of Veracity Settled, Curious Developments About the Way the Southern Heart Was Fired. Wasurnctox, D. C., July 1, 1875. oun R, Gsaves, Esq., Onkville, St. Mary’s county, Md. :— if DEAR SiR—Having at last a respite from my professional duties I vurn to your long neglected letter of February 27, wherein you inform me that a controversy has arisen between you and Mr. Perry in relation to a quotation in my oration on the life of tne late Hon. Henry Winter Davis, | from a speech of Mr. Jefferson Davis at Steven- son, Ala., in February, 1861, as follows:- We will carry the war where it is easy to ad- | vance—where food jor the sword and toren awaits our armies tn the densely populated cities, You state that Mr. Perry wrote to Mr, Jefferson “Davis concerning the matter and enclose me a copy of his reply, contained in the St. Mary’s Beacon of February 25, 1875, and then request me bo gi my authority for tue above quotation, The fact that Mr. Davis made many speeches on Dis way from Jackson to Montgomery is proved byadespaten datea Montgomery, February 16, 1861, and published in tne New York HeraLp and New York 7réjune of the next day tn the tollow- Ing language:—“The trip of Mr. Davis from Mis- Bissippi to Montgomery was one continuous ova- tion, He made twenty-five speeches on the route, returning thanks and complimentary greetings to crowds of ladies and gentlemen and military at the various depots.” in the same despatch ne ls reported to have said, on his arrival at the Montgomery depot:—‘*The time for compromise 1s past, and we are now determined to maintain our positicn and make all who oppose us smell South- ern powder, feel Southern steel.” Tne precise words quoted by me were taken from Girecley’s “American Conflict,” vol. 1, p. 415. ‘The whole passage reads thus:—“Your border States will gladiy come into the Southern Confederacy within sixty days, as we Will be their only iriends. Eng- jand will recognize us, and a giorious future 1s before us. The grass will grow in the Northern cities where the pavements have been wora off by the tread of commerce, We will carry war where itis easy [0 advance—where food jor the torco awaits our armies in the densely populated ud though vney (the eremy) may come and spoil our crops we can raise tuem as before, while they cannot rear the cities Which took years of ineusiry ane millions of mouey tu puiid.” ‘Tue speech of Mr. Davis was reported as made In February, 1861; Greeley’s book was puplisned In 1864, and my oration Was delivered on tne 22d of February, 1866, There has been an acquies- ion irom Mr. Davis lor four- years since the publication of Mr, Greeley’s book, ana ine years since the delivery ef my oration. Meantime grave historians have endeavored to tnake up trutnfully the great record of the rebel- dion, and nearly ail wno have suliciently entered iuto getall to allude to Mr. Davis’ speech have | adopted the words thus quoted as genuine. Ben- son J. Lossing’s ‘Pictorial History o1 War,’’ pubiished in 1866 (vol. 1, p. 257), contains the fotlowing language :—“Preparations were now (February 15, 1861) made for tue reception and Ineuguration of Davis. He was at his Rome near ‘Vicksourg when apprised of his electien, and he | tieatar, hastened to Moutzomery on the circuitous rail- Way route by the way of Jackson, Grand Junction, Chattanooga and West Point. His journey was a cootingous ovation. He made twenty-five speeches ‘on the way, all oreathing treason to the govern- Tent by waose bounty he nad been educated and | fed, and whose jaws he had frequenuy sworn to upuola.”’ in the ‘History of the American Civil War,” py Joun William Draper, puvl sed in 1808, vol. 1, p. 530, he says:—"'Mr. Vavis’ Views at tnia time are to be found in speeches be made in his tri- umphant journey to Mon:gomery and in nis in- augural address, In one of tue former ne says: ‘Ine Border States will gladly come into the Southern Centederacy within sixty days, as we snall be their oniy frienas. Eugiana will recog- nize us, anda glorious inture is before us, The grass will grow in the Northern cities, wnere the pavements pave been worn off by the tread of commerce.’ Foreshadowing the manner tn which he intended to act, he sald:—‘We wiil carry the ‘war wnere it 1s easy to advance—where food for the sword ana torch await our armies in the flensely pupulated cities. The enemy may come and spoil our crops, but we can raise them as be- jore; they canuot rear again tue cities which took ears of industry and milltons of money to build.’ ‘We are now determined,’ he said, ‘to maintain bur position, ant make ali Who oppose us smell poutnern powder and fee!

Collins and Mr. George T, Schemerliorn, on benalf of the Amateur Rutle | Club. General Snaler was elected Chairman and | Mr. Schemerhorn chosen for Secretary. Before the business of the committee had got well under way the Chairman suggested that it would be weil to gointo “executive session,” at which nothing Interesting to the press would take piace, and hinted tuat the reporters might witn- | draw. Upon this suggestion from Gencrai Shaver, Colonel Wingate got up and moved that the com- mittee go into “ZXRCUTIVE SESSION? and that the representatives of the press might retire. Mr. Judd seconded the resoution and after Mr. Schemernorn had said a few words In- dorsing it, the motion was carried, Tae reporters now gathered up their papers and witudrew to an onter office, where there was no sitting room and hardly any stanaing room tor them. The door ef the committee room was then shut, and the meeting, It 18 presumed, went into “executive | session” in reguiar Star Chamber style, This is the i first time, itis believed, the press has been ex- | ciuded irom the deliberations of any rife meeting wince tne opening of Crecamoor ranges, When the committee had conctuded their “ex. ecutive sessiou” the deors Were opened, report- ers readmitied anu furnished wita the following ilems:— ‘f2e following communication was received from the Ninth regiment, N.G.s. and ordered to be placea on file tur juture actio: Heanquartens Misti & Major General Auexaxpnu =nat tt ot Keceptiun rican Teas " GENEKAL~ ¢ the honor, on behalf of this com- mand, to offer their services in uy way you too may CiCct On [Ae oCCAsION wf the pro | tothe American team, 1 take this oppor wna’ | gratulate the National Hitle Association aud A Wife Club on the splenatd sucées achievod by the posing the first America team con 4 if ne ‘ny com. ctl reception Ket - | 1 TRAM RECEPTION Ing progvamine the American veaw | Jand was adopred:—Th | a reception cowa toe e810 lu | rages up Browdway, & bangdet and tre pry lon of a testimonial.
