ly wish the letter read to put thcin c
record as they desire to be put*
Mr. Blair. In connection wifch th
ter which has just been read, and the
ment made by the Senator from I
Carolina, I desire to say to the S
that upon the same occasion it wai
nounced here in the debate which c
red then, that Hon. Reverdy Jchnso;
Mr. St.:Hbery, who were counsel foi
prisoners charged with bajng Ku-Kl
South Carolina, had abandoned their
that they were so disgusted wi-h the i
ities proven that they had abandone
case. I have in my hand a letter
Mr. Johnson, whie? ? desirt in this
nceiion to hare read.
The Chief Clerk read as follows :
BALTTMOKB, February 19,16
Zig Deur General:-Your letter o
lbth instant has just reached me.
giyes we the first information I havi
that Hon. Mr. Edmunds, of Vern
made the statement in the Senate w
you quote as reported in the Globe o
10th instant. It is utterly un founded
untrue. Neither my colleague, Mr. S
b?rrv, nor myself abandoned or thoi
of abandoning the cases to which
Senator referred Tor the reasons assh
by him or for any other reasons. Si
from having done so, we femainc
Columbia takimr part in the trials i
wo li ad accomplished all that wc
hoped for or endeavored to accotnpi
which was te get the constitutional q
tiona arising under the Acts of lS7t
before ::ie Supreme Court of the Un
Slates. This we did, and the quest
aro to b's argued in that tribunal on
JSth cf March next.
Sino.- tho receipt of your letter, I li
under tood that in the debate to.wi
you r<-.er the same Senator and otl
made imputations against you and 0
ends Kershaw and Butler. Thore
taiuly was HO proof given or profit
while I was iu Columbia which impl
ted either of you, and although I :
thero persons of every political opini
and convulsed freely'with thom, 1 ne
heard thc least intimation that eithe
you had any connection whatever ti
the Ku-Klux organization.
From my knowledge ol'Mr. Edmur
I am satistied he has received his in:
mation from a source which he thou
he might confide in ; but whatovcj
may havo been, he was grossly deceiv
and induced to make charges" which
utterly untrue.
I reinain, wfth much regard, your o
dient .-errant,
. ..i-~ i-- REVERDY .JOHNSON
Major-General Wade Hampton.
The Vice-President. These papers in
been presented by uuauimuus consent.
Mr. Edmunds. I ask unanimous ci
lent to present myself, "as I seem to be
trial.
_ The Yiee-^ident. Jflia Senator fr
Vermont ask* -rnanimotrs consent to im
a statement. The Chair hears no obj
. tion.
Mr. Edmund?.. I did not hear the fi
part of that letter, which seems to ha
?rrived here by the way of South ( art
na, starting at Baltimore., but the si
stance of it seems to b* that I scated i
truly thc disappearance of Mr. Johns
and Mr. Strm berry {rom the celebra!
trials at Columbia.- What I stated ?
that public-report - was se and eo, wh-1
appeared in ail the newspapers ; and
just ta much believe at that time that th
did abandon those trials and came aw
before they were ended, as I believe tl
the trials took place ; and I must say
frankness that i believe it yet.
The question that Mr. Johnson seei
to send to us in this wav. by way of Sou
Carolina and Missouri, vs one of the pi
eise meaning of words. It*seems accor
ing to his lettler, that I used the wo
" abandon?d." He says he dkl not aba
don; be stayed until he had accomplish
his mission, which was to raise a leg
question, and came away then. I calli
it " abandoned." That is a choice
epithets or adjectives. It reminds n
very much ef a criticism that' was ma<
upon thc bravery of the American soldie
rj>: at Pladensburg x>\\ a- certain ocoash
during the war of ISL", where some
tho participators in that noblo exp?o
which abandoned the capital (if I may u?
the word abandoned again) to the men
sf the British, fled. One of the office;
was bein, complained of about it, and I
said aoftbe/Ajuiy. djd not* flee by an
means, but the Americans did not (seem t
take any interest and went away. [Laugh
ter] .
Nov/, I think I am justified again i
repeating as tbis.matter seems to be force
upon the Se?*^*.4S^*a^r a ceatain stag
in the development of those trials wa
. reached, which showed the extent of th
conspiracy, and alter horrible attrcjeitie
which human language cannot desonce ii
horror, had" *-?n known to them, thes
" gentlemen IOIMIO it convenient to feat* th
continuance .of this defence to other par
ties, hiving raised, rt you please/ their le
gal questions. I tboegbt it waa-an honoi
to them. If they think it is a doubtm,
honor, and that they ought to haye de
fended them further, that is a question ol
taste which I am*, not a discuss here.
Then, as to Kershaw, I did not state
that he appeared on these trials; that
Kershaw or any of these neoplo wen ? con
nected with the Kia?. Kershaw was not
on trial ; neither was Butler. What 1
stated was that thc judicial officers of the
United States in thatd'strict had, as I was
eredily informed, in tneir possession the
evidence which would go to convict these
persons of being, I believe, the advisory
board of this Kiah, whatever that may be.
That was what I stated ; and if it ?snec
eeeary I repeat that I am thus credibly
informed. And when the United States
wiU.'fornrsK ?that ?nrse ridden peba?e with
the judicial'me^ntr'-of dairying on tbTosei
trials, with loree enough, with judges and
r? r . ?vi
(?A * , .
tice to go through with the trials, ? have
Very good reason to believe that evidence
of that kind will be produced.
Mr. Blair. Mr. President
The Vice President. Does the Senator
from Missouri desire unaniiaouSvCOn?ent,.
Mr. Blair. I wish to say * View words.
The Vice-President. The- Senator from
Missouri desires unanimous wnsent to
make a statement. The C hair ^hears no
objection. ' Jf$?? j
Mr. Blair. In response^to^-what has
fallen from the Senator from ' Vermont, I
desire to say that so far from abandoning
the Ku-Klux cases we have the statement
here of Hon. Reverdy lohnson that he
and -Mr. Stanberry remained tWe and
accomplished all that they sought to ?e
comphish in preparing a case ibr. the Su
preme Court of the United States. They
aid not, like the Americans at Bladens
burg, as stated by the Senator, take so
.little, interest in the mather .as., to .leaye,
but they took sufficient interest to come
here to the city of Washington and appear
in the cases here? and argue <hem~ on- the
18fh of March" before the Supreme Court.
There is nothing that these gentlemen
have uttered giving authority to any oiw
to say that" they were so disgusted with
the. outrages committed that they had
abandoned the cases. "There isno jastifi-.
'cation for it whatcyer except in thc gen
tleman's own. imagination.
Further, in regard to the gentlemen who
were accused of being the advisory, board,
the Senator said that he liad been mform
od that there was ^pi?ot i? the hands of
the Execuf ive--i';thmk that the language
Mr. Edmunds. Evidence in the hands
of thejudicial authorities. I did not say
proof" There is a difference between
proof ?nd evidence.
Mr: Blair. I submit t? the Senator's
criticism. The Senate and the' country
understand what I mean. What I pro
pose- to gay in regard to that is that these
gentlemen cunte nere to-'-Washington city
immediately upon reading the report ol
that debate, presented themselves here,
and^fter consultation gave the statement
.which has been presented to thaSenat* to
day into the hands of the Senators from
South Carolina,'in which they utterly de
li v that there ?3 any such'evidence; or^if
I there is, they say it is false evidence ; they
defy the Government to prosecute them,
and I think'that the Senator, having had
this information,- as I bave nb' doubt he
liad, and reh ?ag upon it, when these gen
tlemen have come forward and- presented
t!;eir statement, knowing thc character of
these men, he should not reiterate the
(.charges he formerly made against them.
If it is-proper for him to do so, it becomes
those who know the merits of these gen
tlemen to state again on the floor of the
Senate and to the country that nobody,
perhaps with the exception of" the Senator
from Vermont, believes any snch charge
against him. Ido not believe you can
find any person besides 'the* Senator who
will give credence ta this accusation ; and
it is evident, because no attempt has been
made to arraign these gentlemen before
che Courts in South Carolina, and no at
tempt has been made to arraign them anv
where u'poa these^charges; and when the
arraignment is made, I venture to say
that they will be able to shbw themselves
entirely free from the aspersion cast upon
them.
Mr. Edmunds. Only a word, Mr. Pres
ident.
The Vico-President. The Senator from
Vermont desires to add a word.
Mr. Edmunds. The Senator from Mis
souri suggests that I madecharges against
. thesejgentlemen. I do not make'eharges
against any one in ' this body unless I in
tend to support them in a manner in which
this body can decide upon them, rn
public debate I did say, for which I am
responsible-I will not say " here Or else
where," for that is rather an unhandsome
term-that I had such information, that
..-there was such evidence. I do not un
dertake to say that that evidence'upon
trial would turn out to be sufficient lo-'
convict them, or would not turn out to be
perjured ; I only said, in discussing a pub
lic question that fiad relation to that sub
ject, that we ought to be careful how we'
took steps until we had information. That
is all. I hope as much as the Senator
that these people when they are tried will
bc found to be entirely innocent, but I do
not undertake to pronounce any opinion,
and I have not undertaken to pronounce
any opinion upon their guilt or innocence.
Nothing would make memore happy than
to find i hem perfectly innocent.
Mr. Blair. 1 am very glad to hear the
Senator say what hr has just ?aid, and I
think it was due to thc occasion that he
should say it to the Senate.
Mr. Robertson. I desire to n.ay one
word.
Th* Vice-President. The Senator from
South Carolina desires io add a'word.
Mr. Robertson. 1 said at the time these
gentlemen were assailed, that in my opin-.
ion they were innocent ; that they were
gentlemen of character and position and
.dncation. I still think so. In a person
al conversation with myself they told me
that they held themselves in readiness to
answer to the laws of their country, and
it is very hard that they should be assail
ed for an act for which they themselves'
claim to disdain. I repeat my assertion
that I think they are entitled at least to
! be deemed innocent until they are prove?
guilty by the laws of the country.
Military Arrests.
Our exchanges from the up-country still'
continuo to chronicle unlimited arrests on
all sides .by Grant's soldiery. The New
berry Herald says:
At a moment of profound quiet und
whilst an over-taxed and dispirited poo
ple are patiently combating th? moral
tates with the weapon of hope, and of
faith in thc future, and essaying to rise
with cheerful elasticity from the shackles,
which bind, and the obstacles that obtrude
an a'barrier to honest success in the ave
nues of trade, and which consequently
impoverish and* blight as. doth the mil
dew, the fiat goi-s forth that arrests are to
be made, and that the terror, uncertainty,
contusion, and interruption which devas
tated some of the upper comities; must
also embarre&s an 1 distress Newberry.
In our sad financial condition, with an
unpropitious reason ; no work done in the
fields; the labor system more or less un*
certain ; and heavy taxes and other liabil
ities to meet, the result of this most un
fortunate state of affairs is obvious-it is
ruin. . And why ? Is it the better, to in
sure Republican elections, or is it for
emolument ? If for either of these, then
from the heart we say carry the elections
and take the gold, but in the name of thc
humanities let our people have peace,
that they may -pursue theepaths of peace;
till their fields; engage- in trade ; meet thc
demaudd of Stat*; provide for helpless
age and infancy ; educute thc youth, and
bind up the broken fortunes.
What can we say, or what can we do,
to arrest the evils that betide ? Words
are as idle as Canute's attempt to stay
the waves. We are in an extremity. Anil
there is no silver lining to thc clouds
about us. Action, other than that of true
moral courage, is equally futile as mur
muring words. We urge upon our perse
cuted people, therefore, the heroism of pa
tience, endurance, forbearance, sympathy,
?i.e., ns the qualities which win in an hour
like tb?, ...
The following are the names of those
who have been arrested so far as we are
able to learn : . . .
Dr. E.. C.- Jones, Dr. Marion Settler,
Charles Sims, John Merchant, CieroLove
lase, Franklin Merchant, Dr. Wm. Kinard,
Frank Loveloce, T. B, Wadlington, Eli

Concerning fhedead matter of Reform
ism, our friend is' heedlessly and intem
perately bitter. * Of course his/'Object is
to warn the people from making another
fatal mistake in thc comingelection, but;
even at this, there is no necessity for him
to degenerate into such splenetic harsh
ness; Mr -Tillman well knows his groat
influence.with the masses in Edgefield,
and much of what he writes about Re
' l'or m i sin to-day ought to have been writ
ten and published'in 1870, but it was not.
It was understood, at the time, that Mr;
Tillman was-decidedly, opposed to the
Reform movement, but we do not re
member, that he spoke, publicly lo the

Nor should our friend beso unreserved
in accusing 'the ?whole press <yf South

. A Brave and Noble Georgian.
j. Af the time of the inception of. th?
scheme of Congressional reconstruction,
when the other Southern-Governors were
dispossessed by the military, it will be
remembered that Gov, Charies J. Jen
kins; of Georgia, stood stoutly on tho de
fensive; instituted suit in th a Supreme
Court of the United States; transferred
I" the records-'of his office and thegreatseal
of the State' to a place of security until
the office'from which he was forced should
see a rightful incumbent; removed'hil
the available'funds o'f*the State from tho
carpet-bag conventions ;-and only yield
ed bis office- in the direct presence of a
force with*whicb he found it impossible
to cope, accompanying bis withdrawal
with a protest against the proceeding as
"a flagrant usurpation," violative cf thc'
Constitution of, the Unite'd'states."
During thc?Radical interregnum, Gov.
Jenkins has kepi the papers ami seal in
their hiding place, and only lately deliv
ered them np to thepresent Democratic
Executive of the State-Gov. Smith. In
his letter to Gov. Smith, a very noble
and striking one, Gov. Jenkins says-:
"The books and papers I herewith
transmit to your Excellency, that they
maj'resume their place ?among the ar
chives of tho State. With them' I also
deliver to you the seal of the executive
d epa rum-nt. I derive high satisfaction
from the reflection that it has never been
"desecrated hy thc grasp of a military
usurper's hand-never Coen prostituted
to authenticate official misdeeds of an up
start pi elender. Unpolluted as it. came
to mu I gladly place it in the hands of a
worthy son of Georgia-her freely clio
S0n Kxeuut ?vf?- my ?rot log-ibitimtc SUC
cessor.". ? c
In commenting upon this letter the
New York World aptly says :
"In these sordid days it is pleasant t .
know that the old sentiments of oflicial
dignity and devotion to principle still
live; and rn'Georgia, where the biston'
which Governor Jenkius recalls has spe
cial significance, it is easy to see willi
what enthusiasm the matter of his letter
Viii be received. The stout 'light made
by h i A Excellency in 1^(37-8 has never
been forgotten, and, from thc .reception
accorded bis account of that contest, it is
not nt all unlikely but ?inu in the regular
election of this fall Mr. Jenkins will
again bc chosen the Executive of the
State."
Thc State and County l av..
As many persons have a very vague
idea of the taxes imposed by the last
General Assembly, (flays the-Charleston
OOitrfer,) wc print the following sum
mary for general information: General
Stale tax Imposed by jojui resolution, 8
mills; County tax,, under same Act, 3
mills ; tax authorjzed by the Blue Ridge
bib, <> mills; total, 14 milla. In.addition
to this, t hero is un unlimited tax on real
'estate, authorized by tho validating bill,
the language used being, "Thc State
Auditor is hereby authorized to levy and
collect.a tax sufficient to pay thc interest
on the debt hereby legalized and made
