A VISIT TO AND INTERVIEW WITH SENATOR
STEVENSON BY A HERALD coRREsPoNDENT-
WHAT SECRETARY OF LEGATION RUSH RE-
MEMBERS.
PHILADELPHIA. May II, 1874
However II may be VITA the date Of NAY 20,
I775 in the history OF North Carolina, there IL at
least no doubt May 81, OF the same year. tAs
MeckienDurg people put forth declaration OF
their position in regard TO the mother country,
and in that paper sketcned an outline OF Q civil
polity Tor themselves, 10 be nlled out a. events
might determine. There IL as little doubt that
the Engilsn government vas fully informed OF tnls
az the time, and that Martin, the Royal Governor,
sent forward to the Colonial once In legitimate
discharge OF mis- duty, published copy OF the
paper thus issued. with his own report
OF the circumstances ana possibly bis comments
Attention i naturally turned to that report In
the hunt Tor evidence regarding the history OF the
20tn or MAY Tor IL seems but rational that writing
within so few days OF that event ne should also
refer 70 II, and to the declaration then made, or
10 some previous report OF mis- own on the subject
WHERE Is MARTINS RRPoRrs
Naturally. therefore. the Royal Governors re.
port or the occurrences attending the issue OF the
paper 81 May p, becomes or consequence 10 thIs
inquiry. But where Is itS 1t has slipped out
OF sight. II mas disappeared from lie ap-
propria,e corner 10 Ine Bri ism Record once, and
no 81 Is seem sharp enough 70 say where 10 now
lies nidden-wnetner in the forgotten fubbish or
some garref whether reduced to asnes ana scat
tered years since In some unremembered conna-
grafton, Or whether carefully treasured By some
sy gatnerer Of the secrets OF the past. II appears
mat TINS document was in the archives or the Brit
lsa Colonial once down 10 the time when our gov
eminent was represented 10 London by Andrew
Stevenson, o. Virginia, VINO held the post OF
CnIfed states Minister from 1890 10 ls4i.
Ii was Withdrawn wnile Mr.. stevenson was our
representative, and tue records OF the Colonial
once indiclte that was issued az the request OF
the Minister or to some person whose Application
for IL bad received his support. Apparently the
usage or tue ONCE required that some guarantee
OF that sort should De gwen for the SAFETY or doc
umsnts 80 Withdrawn. the Record once contem-
plating that papers thus issued were construct
lively in the custody or the Minister and holding
him responsible for their In this view the
honor or the stevenson family Is implicated 10 the
loss OF this very precious document.
HFRALD CORRESPONDENTS SEARCH.
Mr.. stevenson was not IN active politics. for the
remainder Of MS life after bis return from London
and IL has been generally thought that his papers
had renamed to the present time untouched IN
tRe boxes in which they came with him across
the Atlantic. Perhaps tue lost report was In one
Of those boxes. II was certainly there n the paper
wiihdraWn from the Colonial once was wItndrawn
for the Minister'S use; WINE lift was Withdrawn
