Spirit of Jefferson. [volume] (Charles Town, Va. [W. Va.]) 1844-1948, 1870-06-14
BRIGADE Association,

We have heard mentioned by number of
the old members of the Stonewall Brigade the
propriety of forming society for the purpose
of keeping alive the memories of the deeds of
valor, and the cultivation of kindly feelings
among the survisors of the celebrated corps,
and hope that the suggestion may be carried
into execution. 1t would be great satisfac-
ton to meet once year our old comrades, and
revive in social intercourse the memories of
the times when we marched and fought with
jackson, Ewell and Early. Let some one
call meeting of the survivors, and let all
attend who possibly can. R.
We have conversed with several members Of
the I'd Regiment, Stonewall Brigade, on the
subject of an association such as is referred to
above. This renowned Brigade is too scatter
ed to expect meeting of its surviving men,
bers except by delegation. The only way
such an association can be formed is to form
regimental associations first. AS five COM
panies of the I'd were from Jefferson, two
from Berkeley, one from Winchester. and two
from Clarke, Charlestown would probably be
the most appropriate and central point for the
meeting of such an association. 1t is due to
the history of our Confederacy, our dead, and
ourselves, that something should be done to
rescue the records of our Regiment and Bri-
gade from oblivion. We hope the pitiful cry
of inexpediency will not be raised against
this suggestion. What ought to be done is
always expedient.-U Clarke Courier.
Spirit of Jefferson. [volume] (Charles Town, Va. [W. Va.]) 1844-1948, 1870-06-14
Judge Black on Wilson, the Eulogist
of Stanton.

Judge Jeremiah S. Black, Attorney Gen.
eral, under President Buchanan, and doubt
less the ablest member of his Cabinet, ex-
poses with a master piece of criticism, the
utter falsity and fimsiness, the eulogy of Hen
ry Wilson, pronounced upon the patriotism
and character of Edwin NJ. Stanton, late Sec
rotary of War, under the Lincoln Administra-
ton. Much that has been involved in mys-
terry concerning certain acts Of Stanton and
others, at the commencement of the war, is
unearthed.
The evacuation of Fort Sumter, which
many believed, would have prevented the war,
is shown by Judge Black to have been pre-
vented by Lincoln, and not the double dealing
Of Seward, as supposed. 1t was known at
that time that Mr.. Seward promised to evac-
uate Fort Sumter as step leading toward re-
Cancellation and settlement of the difficulties
between the sections Mr.. Seward gave the
assurance from the unanimity in favor of the
measure that existed in the Lincoln Cabinet,
being six to one for, but Lincoln opposed it,
and since these facts have been made public,
was more to blame for the war and its mise
ries, than all the public men at that time
In regard to this matter, the South has always
attached the blame to Seward, and charged
him to trickery and deception, but it seems
u0 HOI ddNloeu 14luCOlu u eNaCuale, Dub
supported it in Cabinet. Montgomery Blair,
it seems, was the only member who sustained
Lincoln. Judge j. shows Stanton to have
been most violent secessionist up to late in
1861, and never changed positions until he
was offered a seat in the Cabinet Wilson
says Stanton entered Buchanan's Cabinet with
the sole purpose to expose it to its enemies
and applauds his conduct. Judge Black says
that Wilson would sink the man he processes
to hold up to the American people as model,
as the basest of hypocrites, by showing to
them his treachery, venality and deception,
that his character was such, that while pro-
Tossing friendship, he would stab his bene>
factors to the heart. Jouge Black defends
the Administration of Mr.. Buchanan with
ability, and an earnestness commendable. and
demolishes the fimsy accusations of Wilson
so completely that one actually feels for the
spitetul and Insignificant creature.
