MEssRs EDIroRs:-I notice in the issue of the
Wilmington Dispatch of the 18th inst, an article
signed by Thomas j. Curtis of this place, that re-
fleet SO severely and we think, unjustly, upon
the Commanding Officer of this Post, that mas
much as, from his position, he is debarred the
privilege of replying to any article, however
severe, consider it my duty, as an ex-of1cer, to
correct the gentleman on some points, and to
disabuse the public mind of the erroneous i'm
pressions this article has conveyed.
The article is commenced by stating that
"ninetent of the citizens of this place, think
he was removed as much for murder or arson, as
for the cause alleged" The fact is the gentle
mai was removed by order of Maj. Gen. Sickles,
dated on the 18th of May, seven days after the
arrival of the Commanding Officer and his COM
mand, and for refusing to take any action in
quelling riot, wherein freedman lost his life
by shot from one of the rioters. And although
1t was p very aggravated case, 1t was out of all
character for the Mayor of the Town to give coun-
tenance to mob law by inaction. For this he
was removed.
In the next clause, the gentleman speaks OF
restraining Maj. Gen. Sickles and his petty subal
terms In the exercise of despotic and unlawfM au-
thority. We think that man who had not the
stamina to put down a mob of 40 or so men in
q small town like this, will have but little influ-
ence with the general government and the Con-
gress of the United States in restraining officers
of the ability and standing of Maj. Gen. Sickles,
and the "petty subaltern'' alluded to.
must say That the attack upon the Command
ing Officer of this Post, was out of all character
ungentlemanly and uncaled for, as Mr.. Curtis
must know full well, that the commandant had
nothing, whatever, to do with his removal. The
Colonel has always spoken in the highest terms
of Mr.. Curtis, and continues to do so. We do
think it was, Ito say the least of it, unkind and
ungenerous.
AS for the remark spoken OF, that no g North
ern man could get justice in the Courts" we
would refer the gentleman to the case of Capt.
John Fry, who was wayiaid, and an attempt to
murder, made by two men, where the prisoners
were released on $500 bail The only provoca-
ton given for this outrage was Legitimate COM
petition in business; and when the United States
authorities attempt to bring them to justice they
cannot be found, but lay concealed for months.
Members of juries have openly stated that in case
a Confederate soldier was interested, they could
not conscientiously convict him. SIS this not
enough said upon this point" we ask?
As for the remark, that every man that SYM
pathized with the rebellion was disfranchised,"
would say that the Colonel has openly, and in
my presence, said that the " Registers would be
appointed, and receive all orders and instructions
from Maj Gen. Sickles, and as they would re-
ccive all orders from headquarters, he would have
none to give.
.-.L- I am, sir, very respectfully,
I Fayetteville, June 10, 1867. 81 A..

TINE 1sDKRsosvILLE LEAGUE.
DAVIS 70 BE KILLED IF FOUND on UNITED

DAVIS 10 BE KILLED IF FOUND ON UNITED
A Washington correspondent of the Enc
tRa.) Dispatch writes US as follows, which pc
sayshe can testify to:
When it was found that Davis was to go
on bail, matter which every one there looks
upon as a virtual discharge, the excite
ment amsng the .veteral soldiers knew no
bounds. The result had been published days
before, and, half expecting it, meeting
was privately called, at which some sixty
discharged soldiers were present, who bound
themselves saeredly together under the rame
of the ''Andersonyille League" every mem
der subscribing to a solemn oath that II JUS
tice failed in its duty they would take JUS
tice in their own hands ~
This brotherhood no man was qualified
to enter but those who had suffered either
from wounds or Imprisonment in the rebel
pens during the war 1t now extends to
New York, Philadelphia and Boston. While
the bail was being arranged by the court at
Richmond on the day set for the trial, a pa
per was handed in to Davis counsel, Charles
O'Connor, of New York, warning him OF the
existence Of such league, and naming two
men in the court room as members
~ The men were seized as soon. as they left
the room on mock charge and taken to
Jail, and were not released until week after,
when Davis was in New York It will be
remembered that Davis arrived in New York
during the night; that he kept secluded as
much as possible while at the New York Ho-
tel, no one being admitted but those who
were personally known to some of the par
ty; that he was suddenly removed one night
from the hotel to Brooklyn, where he re-
manned until his departure; that he left
New York alone and in disguise for Mon
treal, his party and family Following only
when he had telegraphed to them of his
safe arrival When it is understood that
the brotherhood were upon his track, and
that he was conscious of it, this strange con-
duct is easily accounted for. = According to
the oath, as long as he remains on foreign
ground he is safe, SO it is hardly probable
that he will again set foot upon the soil of
the United States; at least not until he feels
easier in his mind than at present. lA
