Sessions offered him $4,000 to vote
for Depew, and Sessions swears that
money was never mentioned. One
of these men have sworn falsely, and
Bradley;s story does not impress one

Sessions is an unmitigated fool, a
thing we have never heard charged

much like trick and transparent

JEFF, DAVIS BOOK.

Lue OoOk JuS6 puDIiSHous Dy zLue
Appletons for Jefferson Davis, cons
tains some disparaging statements
in reference to Gen. Joseph E. john
ston, who ranked next to Lee for
military renown in the Confederate
army. Gen. Johnston was inter
viewed by a Washington correspond
ent of the New York Evening Post,
last Saturday, who reports him as
follows:
Gen. Joseph E. Johnston tells me
to-day, in reference to the disparag
ing statements which Jefferson Davis
has made Of him in his (Davis) re-
cent book, that he has not seen the
book yet, but only such extracts as
some papers have published, as well
as the report Of Gen. Shermans re-
marks in Hartford. He said that he
did not think that when he came to
read the book he should feel it neces
sary to make any public statement in
contradiction of anything that Davis
might say regarding him. He did
not believe that Davis could or would
say anything rejecting on his per-
sonal character. He, however,
was quite willing to make
such hasty and informal denial
of Davis statements as q
brief interview would allow. In the
first place, in regard to the charge
that he ought, after the victory of
Bull Run, to have taken his army into
Washington, he said that that came
of the hue and cry raised at the
South, little after the battle. Davis
knew very well that it was impossible
for him to have done it, because
there was q river a mile wide which
it was necessary to cross before the
city could be taken. This was SO
palpable fact that the idea entered
neither his head nor that Of Beaure-
gard, and if Davis thought of it, be
said nothing of it in the forty hours
he was at Manassas. In addition,
the Confederate army was in no
shape to undertake the task. The
mass of the Confederate army sup,
posed the war had ended with that
battle, and were disorganized. In
regard to another charge, that he
had yielded the command to Beaure-
gard, General Johnston characterizes
it as absolutely false, and added that
if Davis had made such a statement.
he made one which he must have
known was incorrect.
Touching the charge that he had
violated Davis orders and refused to
invade East Tennessee, he said he
did receive such orders, and at time
when it was absolutely impossible to
execute them. He was in North
Carolina with an army of 10000 men,
and his orders required him to pro-
vide wagons, horses, provisions and
other means for transporting an army
| of $4,000 men. In order to get these
| necessaries, most Of them must have
| come from Atlanta and beyond.
Sherman was at Chattanooga with
his army, and 20 would have pre-.
vented the execution of this plan.
Johnston informed his superiors that
the onl y way to invade East Tennes-
see was first to receive Sherman's at
tack in the neighborhood of Atlanta,
defeat him. and then undertake the
invasion. He moved his army to-
ward Atlanta, prepared for battle
and before an action took place was
superseded by Hood, and when HOOD
subsequently evacuated Atlanta
Johnston SAID that in his opinion the
end OF the war was near at hand.

GEN. MAURY ON GEN. SHERMAN

In the Knoxville Tribune, of last
Saturday morning, there appeared q
communication in reference to Gen.
". L. Sherman, written by Gen.
Dabney II. Maury, which is so utter
ly unjust, misleading and so far from
the truth, that we feel called upon to
correct it. The General of the Army
is held up as unmanly and cruel, and
as having prosecuted and insulted
defenseless women. We have no
taste for discussions of this charac-
ter and do not propose to engage in
them. IF, in this case, General
Marry had confined himself to a
mere expression Of opinion, we
should have taken no notice
of it, conceding his right to ene
terrain whatever opinion he chooses,
however erroneous that opinion may
be. But he charges General Sher-
man with having enjoyed female dis
tress, deserving his little son in A
cowardly manner, on one occasion,
and again with having insulted lady
in ST. Louis. For proof he refers to
Sherman's memoirs, written by him
self. We have taken the trouble to
compare what General Maury says
General Sherman wrote with what he
really did write, and we find that, in
some respects, at least, he has
grossly misrepresented him. In
proof of Sherman's incapacity OF
enjoying female distress, and his
pleasure in quickening it," General
Maury refers to "page --" of hi'
narrative. AS page -" is
a very indefinite sort of refer
ence, we have not beer
able to verify it by comparison. But
we have read every word and line O.
that narrative" and we have n(
recollection of anything that iusti'
fies the statement made. Besides
the writer of this served more thai
twelve months in Gen. Sherman
command, and knows nothing what
ever Of disposition on the part 0
the general to wantonly insult O.
Cypress women. We never heard 0
such thing before.
And the generals story abou
Gen. Sherman having insulted e lad,
III st. Louis, and abandoning hi
own little son in the face of danger
is not at all as Gen. Sherman write
it up in his memoirs. The contrar,
is true. His insult to the young lad,
to which Gen. NJ. alludes, con
sisted in giving her information tina
the Confederates at Camp jackson
where she had a brother, had sur
rendered to General Lyon. Onl
this, and nothing more. It is true
as he says, that she slammed tn
door in his face" but the provoca
ton consisted in conveying to he
the news as above given.
It would be something astonishin:
if in the exercise of his duties q
commander-in-chief of larg
army, General Sherman should no
have done some things that appeare,
harsh, especially to those On tn
opposite side, but if General Maur
would make him the monster O
atrocious cruelty which he seems tt
believe him, he must be more careful
