THE CONFEDERATE TREASURY.
Lincoln's Bro:her-in Law Tells How tho
Last $4,000 was Divided.

CFrom the Atlanta Constitution.
Or. c. r. G. Todd, of Darnweil, s. G..
a distinguished surgeon Of the Confede
rate army and i brother-in-law OF
Abraham Lincoln, rs we'll as a connec-
ton by marriage with the Breckiu.
r;ige family Of Kentucky, during his
younger days was often thrown with
Abraham Lincoln, who married his
sister. Thus, by family ties and by
association, lie is closely connected with
Breckinridge and Lincoln, who were
both Presidential candidates in 1860.
DR.. Todd was in charge Of the Con-
federate hospital AZ Charleston under
Gen. Hardee, and was with the party
Of the fugitive Confederate Cabinet
when it dishanded. He describes the
division OF the last money of the Con-
federate treasury, matter much dis
cussed in the newspapers a few years
ago.
"a great deal has been said about it,"
said he, "but, so far IS I know, no de-
scription OF it is on record. I was there
il the room when the money was paid
out, and saw the whole proceeding.
Indeed, am partly responsible for the
division of at the time. I had been
with the soldiers coming down, and I
heard the Kentucky and Virginia

troops saying they were going to have
some Of the money or have blood. l
told Breckinridge, who was the Secre-
tary of War, what I had heard, and
said that there might be rioting and
! bloodshed.
There may be rioting,' said he, 'but
no bloodshed.' I then suggested to
him the propriety OF division Of the
money among the soldiers, and he re-
piled: We will see about it, In the
party were the Confederate Cabinet
and the officers Of the four brigades Of
troops which were with US when we
crossed the Savar nah River. We had
the last money Of the Confederate trea-
sury-s70, 900 in gold and silver, besides
some gold belonging to the Bank Of
| Richmond. The money was in charge
of Col. Morgan, brother Of the famous
John Morgan. We crossed the Savan-
nah River on pontoons and went on
the road towardWashington, Georgia.
When we had gone two miles from the
river we stopped at log cabin on the
south side of the road, and there the
$4,000 was paid out. Mr.. Davis had
gone on about four miles ahead Of US
with his staff.
"In the cabin were Johu G.. Breckin-
ridge, Secretary of War; Judah P. Ben
jamin, who looked as scared as the
devil and appeared to be panic stricken;
Gen. Bragg, commander of the four
brigades, and Col. Morgan, who had
charge of the money.
"The division was made by caucus
of the men. Those present were
Vaughn's Dibrell's, Basil Dukes and
Humphrey Marshall's brigades. Mar
shall was then under arrest, and bis
brigade was in charge of Col. w. c. P.
Breckenridge. The census of the sold
iers was the reverse of Porter's. Some
Of the brigades returned fictitious
names in order to get more money.
The division was $26 25 for each man,
officers and common soldiers faring
alike. Some of them, by stuffiing the
census, got as much as $36 head.
Divide $4,000 by 26! and you will see
how many (2666) were returned by
the census of the four brigades. In the
paying out We finally came to a keg OF
silveringots--pieces three by four inches
square.
"They opened box Of gold belong
ing to the Bank of Richmond. 1t was
about eighteen inches long and ten or
twelve inches wide, and. contained
purses of gold. They made a rough
estimate of the value of that golG and
of the keg of silver and exchanged
them. In that way I got some gold.
Then they carried the Bank OF Rich
mond money to the bank at Washing
ton, Ga, and deposited it. They took
none of it, except little box, for which
they substituted the keg OF silver in
gots. While the money was being
divided out Col. Morgan paid a man
five dollars an hour to guard it. When
we got through Morgan took the re-
naming money and drove it away in
the dark. Thence it landedin the bank
at Washington, Ga. know only by
hearsay, but am satisfied that the in
formation was correct, that the Bank
of Richmond sent for its money, and
on its way the men guarding it were
attacked by marauders. The guard was
temporarily dispersed and the marau-
ders got some of the money before they
were driven Off"

GOING TO THE NORTH POLE.
The Daring Voyage Proposed by Col.
". II. Glider Of New York.

Col. VI. II. Glider, who, with
Lieut.. ScAwatka, won fame in Beh-
ring, is nack from the Northern
regions, and gives information re-
specting Franklin and his expedi-
tion. He again proposes to make
a journey to the North, this time
at the head of a party to make a
magnetic survey Of the region i'm
mediately surrounding the northern
magnetic pole. The American
Geographical Society of New York !:
the National Academy of Science
at Washington, members of the
United States Coast Survey, and a
number Of scientific men, are in
terested in the proposed expedition.
Although some funds have been
pledged for fitting out the party
and for carrying on the work, no.
thing definite has been determined
on in the way OF plans, money re-
quired, the exact route, etc.
The American Geographical So.
ciety, with Col. Glider, has taken
the Initiative in the matter, and for
the purpose Of discussing the ex-
pIoratlon the society held a spec al
meeting on May 2nd in New York.
Prof. Trowbridge said that as a
result of the expedition the mag
netic power might not only be def
nitely located but the whole world
of terrestrial physics benefited.
He said that in his opinion all
magnetic surveys on land should be
prohibited, as the true importance
and benefit to be derived were en-
the sea alone for the mariner who
is dependent upon his compass. He
looked forward to the time when a
station might be established in the
neighhorhood Of the magnetic pole
and telegraphic communication be
made between it and the rest of the
world.
Prof. Meyer explained that one
thing it would be sought to estab-
lish at the point where the needle
assumes the vertical position, was
whether the so called pole was fixed
O. moving. he was enthusiastic
in his approval of the proposed
expedition, and expressed the hope
that America would take the lead
in definitely fixing the magnetic
pole and flying the star and stripes
upon it,
Gen Greeley briefly outlined the
magnetic surveys that had been
made about King Williams Land,
where Col. Gilders journey will
lead. He spoke of his own jour
ney north and the valuable geo
graphical work he WAS obliged to
leave undone because Of the re-
quirements of his special mission.
No doubt, he said, could exist as to
the practica5llity of the journey,
and it would be comparatively safe,
the party passing through a coun-
try fairly we'll peopicd and well
supplied with game.
Col. Glider PORTED on a map the
exact position Of the supposed pole.
and briefly recounted the journeys
of various expeditions about King
Williams Land. He is confident
that the mission can be carried out
safely, and will meet with success.

JACKSON'S LIFE AND LETTERS.
A Saint Of the Old Cromwell Type-The Con
federacy Perished with Him.
Washington Public Opinion.

Washington Public Opinion.
This a very attractive and unique
volume. incidentally it is the life OF
Mrs. Jackson, the author, as well as
that of her distinguished husband, who
was really one of the very unusual hg-
ures of the late American war. Stone
wall Jackson was a saint Of the old
Cromwell type. All his victories, yes,
the healing of a broken finger, he takes
pains to attribute the kindness OF his
Heavenly Father. God said before de-
seroying the cities Of the plain, "Can l
hide these things from Abraham"
And so we have often thought that be-
fore God could give the ultimate. trl-
umph to the Union arms Stonewall
Jackson and his prayers had to be elm
mated srem the contest. Chancellors-
vile, as field of defeat, was morti'y-
ing to our army and especially to the
commander of the 1lth corps. But We
could we'll afford that defeat il 1t re-
suited in removing from the contest
the military genius and the ardent zeal
Of Stonewall Jackson. DR.. Dabney has
given the military hero his due al q
general. Mrs. Jackson has skillully
delineated him as tender and afec-
tionate husband. The story of his boy
hood and his life at West Point as q
student, as we'll as his career in the
Mexican war and his character SIS q
military instructor at Lexington; his
activity as a Christian, bis interest in
giving religious instruction to the COL
osed people; and then, his unfagging
devotion to the cause in which he had
enlisted, are all very attractive ele-
ments in this book. So long time has
elapsed since the events described that
a treatise can be judged with more ths n
impartialisy. From his great-grand-
mother, sterling Scotch iassie more
than six feet tall, who apprenticed her
self to get over fron Scotland. and who
found her husband on board the ship
which brought her here, Stonewll Jack
son doubtless derived the great moral
qualities for which bis career was dis
tinguished. The book may be read
with pleasure and profit, whether the
reader be North or South. And OH
either side there wss no more distinct
lively Puritan character than this man,
though natiye-born Virginian. He
belongs to the true American series Of
which all Americans may be proud.

GOVERNORS OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
An Interesting Scrap of History Cut this
Out and Keep 1t.

At the present time, while the can
vass for the Governorship Of South
Carolina is attracting so much atten-
ton, it may he interesting to know who
have heretofore filled the gubernato-
rial chair of the Palmetto State.
From the date Of its settlement in
1870 up to 17l9, South Carolina was
governed by an English company,
known as the Lords Propri. tors, under
. grant from Charles II Of England.
1t may be stated as matter Of interest
not generally known to our people,
that the first revolution in South
Carolina took place in l7l9, when the
colony threw off the authority of the
Lords Proprietcrs and declared itself a
royal colony under the direct authority
of the King.
There are therefore three periods in
the history Of South Carolina. First
as a proprietary colony from 1870 to
l719; second. as a royal colony from
1719 to 1776, and third, as an inde-
pendent State from 1875 to the present.
We have accordingly classified the
Governors under these three heads.
PROPRIETARY PERIOD.
Col. William Sayle, l670-71
Col. Joseph West, l67l-72
Sir John Ieamans, l672-H
Col. Joseph West, l674-s2
Governor Morton, Col. Joseph West,
Gov. Kyrle, Gov. Quarry, Col. Joseph
West filled short terms from 1852 to
1855, but their terms of service are not
definitely known. The other Gov
ernors Of the proprietary period are as
