However perfect may ho that right, it cannot he claimed to embrace the right to ailed injuriously an}' one connected with a matter published by it. When, therefore; in your publication of a letter of mine to (Governor Vance, you direct attention to it, as "proposing in 18t?f> to save the States by dissolving the Southern Confederacy; the (Jarolinas and Georgia in the same boat," you have done a great injustice. i ^ :a .1:i? i< i% A.. i i .. ? mill IIIHIH! 11 IIIII1UII11 IIM III" lO lllKKVl-Klilllll how, with the letter itself before you and the narrative jr. yen "? 'lit interview - had with mo, of the purpose and intent of the letter to cement more closely I heunion of the seceding States for the successful prosecution of Hie war, it -should ho announced ns "propositi;* to save the States by dissolving the Southern Confederacy." It was because of the conviction present to me and the Governors of other States that causes were then operating which, unless removed, were tending to the disintegration of tin? Confederacy, that there was a conourence in the conclusion to present those matters to the consideration of the President of the Confederate States, and by the removal of them revive the spirit of the people ol the secedi States. Into any detail or discussion of these matters I do not intend to enter. They were and are like the differences in n family, with which it is quite unnecessary to trouble or amuse the outside world. Wether these matters should have been allowed to exist. whether they were unavoidable, whether if they had been removed any other result would have followed than that which ;befell us in the spring of 18<!5, are now no longer necessary, or in nty opinion proper, matters for discussion And withoutenteringinto them more particularly, I may say that none but they who, from their official position, wore cognizant of the necessity that existed for the most full understanding of the condition .of the several States by the I'reMdont of tho Confederate States, coald adequately realize the imperative necessity that re-j quired such undertaking. This was to be done in the preparation of u communication, with which I was charged, 10 be signed by jus many Governor*; of the seceding States as could be reached and who would unite in it, to be forwarded to the President of the Confederate | States, giving him the most full and particular statement of all matters which in our opinion called for his serious cosiderat'.on. It was not the purpose of any "to save the States b'y dissolving the Confederacy," but, on the contrary, ''to, save the Confederacy," by making known | to the President the matters which, it was feared, threatened its continuance j :and safety. These matters constitute in I -part "unwritten history" of thos;> I times. They belong to the past, and it serves no purpose, useful or pi >asaut, j now to recall them. While many and wide were the differences in opinion us to the policy ol the Confederate Government, in matters of public moment, it is due to those with whom I had official or personal communication to say that I did not know one who w is in favor of "dissolving the Confederacy;" hut, on the contrary, that the wishes and minds of :sli were intent or. its preservation, and willing to make all sacrifices for tlint. r?ml Yours truly, a.

The last official act of Governor Porter of Indiana was the pardon of IVtor Crawford, known as ".Jake" Crawfoad, a convict in the Michigan City Prison, where he is serving a life sentence for a murder committed sixteen years ago. When he hud signed the pardon the Governor said : "I feel as though 1 had done an act of justice," and he added to his private secretary. "I want that pardon forwarded at onco. nmi !.?> /> \r.. IUackledKC [inking $50 from his purse,] inclose this with it. Tell him that I would especially request hiirt to keep mo advised as to his movements."' And then the Governor gave a story oT most romantic interest. He said: "The case f>f that man has worked on my mind moro than all the other applicants for pardon that have hecn presented to me during my entire term. I first became acquainted with the case three years ago when he was at Jeffersonville. Wardon Howard called my attention to him while 1 was on a visit to the prison. He had just made an attempt at suicide, and had a frightful gash in his throat, 1 asked him if he hadanv friends who might interest themselves in his behalf, and the question surprised him. He answered that he did not knew a soul in tho world outside tho prison, where ho had been for 13 years. "There is one man." said ho, sadly: ''who may remember ine, if ho is still living, but he ie th? only one 1 know.'' Tho man is a big, fine looking Fellow, not having the expression or look of a criminal at all, ^ and I became greatly impressed with him. lie tohl me of the crime for which he was n prisoner, and referred :no to the man mentioned to substan- ' tiate his story, lie had been employed s o:i a railroad contract, and while resent- ? ing the abusive treatment of the man in 11 charge of the set lit which he was work :l ing. he nsod a small penknife with fatal t'lfect, but wiioont any intention of Kill- 1 ing his adversary, lie was utterly '' Yieudless, while the man he killed ws.: I! ?vel I known, and tiie case was prosecuted with vigor by the ablest lawyers in ' Chirk Comity. The result was his con- 11 victien. and lor 10 years he has been a I1 prisoner, lie was little more than a ' boy, and in time was lost sight of en- " tirely and probably no one outside the prison even remembered that he had v ever had an existence. 1 had him removed to the Michigan City 1'iison. and ' took the trouble to hunt up the man whose name lie hail given. I finally " found him and from him heard the sto- " ry of titc? killing even mere favorably 1 than Cruwfonl had told mo himself. !l There was no one to apply for a pardon ' for him, l?nt the case appealed to in:; so strongly that for three years 1 have been considering whether it was not host to set him free in the absence of any petition. I never had any case to work on my mind as this one did, and it seemed ] impossible to drive it away. The other night as I lay dozing iiti'ully. but enable k !o sleep, that man's figure appeared at 1 the foot of my bed, and 1 cculd see the face as plainly us I see yours now. J shut my eyes and tried to think of something els?\ but. when I opened them ' again there stood Crawford, tin? most beseeching and reproachful look imaginable on his face. And there it remained until I made up mv mind 1 would issue that pardon. Then'he apparition, if apparition it was, vanished. - on my mind as (hat vision. I am lirmiy convinced tli:it that man has snltWod enough, ami therefore I set his:? free.'*? Iter/isfer. A TjANI) COMMISSION FIMl'l> COSTS TH10STATU A IlOl'M) Sl'M.

N The suit was hy James M. Iiowory I 1 c mm f< ' iipumov m, i uum>??i], *toversior, i and others, as Commissioners of the, sinking fund, and was an action to re- |" cover personal property. Messrs. J'ope f . C- I*:i?:lcell represented the plaintiff, and , ! Attornoy-Oencral Miles the defendants. From the exhaustive decision of J'.;<i;re | Cothran, the following facts arc sum-1 mnrizod. The causc was withdrawn J front the jury mid submitted to tho I Court for tho decision of its issues of; law and fact: Tho plaintiff brought suit to recover i posession of two deeds which purported ' i to he conveyances of certain lands in j York County. On the " d February 1870,!? when Charles 1'. Leslie was Ir.isd commissioner of the State, he nej'otiaU'd : . , i | with the plamtiit, Lower)', for tin? pur- j J chase of a tract of 580 acres in York | County, for the sum of $ 1,00-1 cash. Or. ! ! tlie 2d of March, of the *an.e year, he in ! 1 i like manner negotiated wito Lowery for u the purchase of a second tract in York j c County comprising l,.'h">."? ncres, for which i . | the price was to be ijil>?,C?35 cash. Tho i several instruments of sale wore signed;: i and sealed by Lowry in the presence of! ' two witnesses, but were not delivered ! to Leslie by the plaintiff, or to any one ! for him, but were retained by him in his j own possession. Shortly after Lowry j gave tho (b'eds to Mnj'>r \V. 15. (Julick, . I then a bank cashier of Columbia, to hold j * | until the purchase money had been paid | j ILeslie. For tho ostensible purpose j" | of having the attorney-general examine j' i the d e Is in order to ascertain tho validity i .. .. .... , ' 4 i oi mo in.? i.c'sue. liuvugh an emissary. I, induccd Gulick to iivu them up, promising their return tin; next day. They ^ were not returned. When (Julick and ' the plaintiff demanding them, Leslie pretended to have mislaid them, and meantime had them -.urreptitiously re corded iu the registrar's office of York . County. This fact was not discovered until a long time afterwards. Leslie retained the deeds, and they passed from . his hands as land commissioner into the ? possession of the sinking fund commis: sion, the successors of the land commission and tiio present defendants. .Judge Colhran justly terms the transaction a "very crooked" one. A countoi- ( 'claim was set up by Hie defendants, but the .fudge holds that 110 claim of this kind should be considered 11 _set off to fraud. Ho observes: "Kven an uquity .. . mi. tv iiiicti ii|kmi a irnuii, and it j attempted it must porish upon il;j Ktock." t As the sinking fund commission has succeeded in the land cmnmis-don as lite ( heir of this fraudulent transaction, J Judge Cothran decrees thnt the plaintiff rccover from the defendant the tcvo deeds of coiivcvnnco specified and that they bo delivered up by the defendant; and in case this specific property cannot be so delivered up, then the plaintiff will rccover of the defendant the value t thereof?$15,199?as his damages. This is a neat little legacy left the State by 1 the official thieves of Radical days. ^ I A few dollars invested in Window r Glass and Prepared Putty will make ^ your house comfortable for winter.
