The Hampton Roads Conference.
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
Referring to the correspondence in your
paper of late, and the causes which made
the conference a fiasco, it is well to re-
vert to Lincolns well-known craft and
adroitness to view the matter in proper
light.
have always believed that the propo-
sition to have such a conference was
used as a pretext to get at and inter-
view the Confederate Government re-
specting the possibility of it's having the
disposition to seize the apparent oppor
tunity of an alliance with France; there
were fifty thousand French soldiers occu-
plying Mexico which they had just con-
quered and set up monarchy over in
defiance of the Monroe doctrine. Lincoln
feared that the Confederate Government,
in it's dire extremity. would endeavor to
establish an alliance with France, and
thereby establish itself in the same way
that Washington and Jefferson establish
ed the Federal Government. Blair's re-
port to Lincoln, together with the report
of his Uincoln's) law partner, doubtless
satisfied him that the heads of the Con-
federate Government had no idea of aban-
doning the Monroe doctrine even to save
the life of the Confederacy.
OF course the Hampton Roads confer
ence was farce, as it was intended to be
unless, indeed, a French alliance had
been imminent; in that event we would
have heard much of paying for our slaves
and all other things that might have been
deemed necessary to undo, prevent or de-
lay such an alliance-delay it at any rate
until a counter demonstration by some
foreign power could have been bought
and paid for.
In fact, while the South, through its
official head, was refusing to consider
an alliance with France, the North was
glad to avail itself of an understand
ing with the autocrat of all the Russias
by which it secured a demonstration OF
his fleet in American waters at time
when it might tend to deter the French
from more zealously seeking an alliance
with the South. How far the re-estaD-
lishment Of the Republic with its I'M
peralistic tendencies is due to demon
stration of friendship by the Car is
matter of inquiry for our historians; and
how far the Gar is satisfied with his
work is a question which our statesman
may well inquire into.

sCHLEY's PICTURE In GARRETT.

There is much smallness in men who
rattle around in big places. Smallness
usually defeats itself. The attempt, Off
cial and otherwise, to belittle Schley,
raised up for him troops of friends The
sending of a picture of Schley to the
garrett in the Navy Department is another
piece of fool business. Mr.. VIM. E. Cur
It's writes about it to the Chicago Rec
ord World:
Admiral Hichborn, late chief Of the
Bureau of Construction at the Navy De-
partment, is one of the few officers in
that branch of the public service who
sympathize with Admiral Schley and
year or more ago he employed an artist
to paint a picture of the battle of San
tiago. in which the Brooklyn, Schley's
flagship, appeared in the foreground bear
ing down on the enemy with great vigor
That picture was hung in conspicuous
place upon the wall of Admiral HIGH
born's office, but his successor, Admiral
Bowles, who is not an admirer of Schley
has sent it to the garnet"

GEN. CARRAT DETROIT
He Was Given Ovation at the
Banquet of Loyal Legion.
He Was introduced by Gen. Carirgton Who
Captured Him as q Ragged Private"
at the Battle of Sailors Creek.

The Detroit papers contain elaborate
accounts of the annual meeting of Mich
igan's commandery of the Loyal Legion
We take the following from the Detroit
Free Press of May 3rd:
Patriotism was the keynote of the
splendid gathering at the banquet of the
Michigan commandery of the Loyal Legion
last night and the beautiful dining room
of the Hotel Cadillac was the scene OF
an unusual demonstration. When General
Julian S. Carr, of North Carolina, Con-
federate veteran of the Civil War and the
speaker of the evening, was introduced
the orchestra struck up Dixie" and as
the familiar strains reached the ears of
the assembled banqueters, many of whom
had heard it under different circumstances
on more than one hard-fought battlefield,
one by one they took the song up until
the whole room resounded with generous
chorus. Again as General Carr rose to
his feet the distinguished Southerner
was greeted with a rousing cheer, the
members of the Legion rising to do him
honor.
HOW CARR AND CARRINGTON NET.
In introducing General Carr, the toast
master related how at the battle of Sail
cr's creek he had captured a ragged
starving private, with whom he shared
his shelter and rations, and whom he
turned over to the authorities in the
morning.
Years afterwards / found that private
one of the most prominent men of the
South said he, and he will address you
tonight, in response to the toast, Our
Country.
General Carr is typical example Of
the Southern orator, a4d his eloquence
moved his audience to frequent outbursts
OF applause. In the course of his ad-
dress he said:
:" This is the first time the Loyal Legion
of Michigan has extended such a@ inyi-
tation to one of their old antagonists.
The Western world is under tribute to
your enterprise and your products are
scattered thickly through the Union, but
Michigan has one product of more vliGc
