From the time they were reported at Charlotte till

of my command lu audi a manner as lo render the
1 11 pi mo uiorany certain, as reported hy Ueneral
Winslow, rumors came In from all directions, but by
carefully weighing them the truth becamesu Jlclently
manliest to enable me to act with confidence. It is 10
vtj ii sniuru now, oowever, tuat the hnrrv or events
freciuded tbe use ol written orders. In nearly every
nstnoce my Instructions were given verbally to the
division commauderi, and by llieoi la turn verbally
10 their subordinates, fciiich written despatches and
orders as were given are preserved In the records per
taining to the cavalry corps, MHilary Division of the
Mississippi, now on lilo In the Adjutant-Ueneral's
ouice.
Jn pursuance ot my Instructions to General Crox
ton, hirotolore recited, Dleuienaut-Colonel Henry
liamdeis with three o.tlccrs and ono hundred and
Ii Hymen of the 1st Wisconsin Cavalry, lell Macon,
Ga., n the evening or May 6 and marched
rapidly via Jeflpraonvllle towards Dublin, on tbe
Oconee river. At Jertersonv lite Colonel ilamdiMi left
one officer aud thirty men, with orders to scout the
country in all directions for reliable information lu
regard to the route of Davis' flight. With the balance
of his o nimand he continued the march all tiluht
and the next day about 7 P. M. reached Dublin.
During tbe night and day he had sent out scouts and
small parties on all the side roads In the hope of find
ing the tiail of the party for whom he was looking.
Nothing of Importance occurred until alter he
had bivouacked lor the night. The white Inhabitants
ot that place expressed entire Ignorance and In. infer
ence in regard to the movement of important Kebeii,
but were unusually profuse in their oifers of hos
pitality to Colonel llamdeti. This, together with the
conduct of the colored servants, excited his suspi
cions, (hough he gained 110 valuable lntelllgancs till
about midnight, at whloh time he was Informed by a
negro man. who went to his camp lor that purpose,
thai Davis. with his He and family, had passed through
Dublin that clay, going south on the river rod.
Tbe negro reported that the party lu question had
eight wagons with them, and that another party had
gone southward on the other Bide of the Oconee
river. Ilia Information seems to have been
of the moht explicit uud circumstantial character.
He had heard the lady culled "Mrs. Davis."
and a gentleman spoken of as "President
Davis," aud said that Mr. Davis bad not crossed the
river at the rogular ferry with tbe rest of the puny,
but had goue about three mllos lower down aud
crossed on a small Hat bout, and rejoined the parly
with Hie wagons near the outskirts of trie town, aud
thai they had all gone towards the South together.
The colored man reported Mr. Davis as mounted on
aline bay horae, and told his Hory so circumstan
tially that Colonel Uatuden could ijOI help believing
lu . The l-rryiiian was called tip and examined; but
either through stupidity or design succeeded lu with
holding wbalever he kuew lu regard to the case. Mut
In view of the lacts already elicited, after detailing
Lieutenant Lane and sixty men to remain at Dublin,
audio scout the country In all tlireo.lims, Colonel
iiamden at an ear.y hour In the morning bean
the pursuit of tbe party Just meuiioned. Five miles
south ol Dublin he obtained Information fro a wo
man which loll him no room to doubt that he was on
the track of Davis In person. He despatched a mes
seneer to inlorm General Croxton of his good fortuue.
and j oshed rapidly in pursuit. Toe trail led south
wa'd through a region ol pine forests and cypress
swamps, almost uninhabited, and therefore atfurdlug
no food for either men or horses. The rain began to
lull, and as there was no road, the tracks of the
wagon wheels upon tbe sandy soil ware soon obli
terated; a citizen was pressed and compelled to act as
guide till the trail was again discovered, The pur
suit was continued with renewed vigor, but as the
wagon tracks were again lost In tbe waters of the
swamp bordering on Alligator creek, the pursuing
party were again delayed till a citizen could be found
to guide them to the road upon which the trail was
aguiD visible. Colonel JIamden reports this day to
have beeu one of great toll to both men and horses;
they had marched forty miles through an almost
trackless forest, much of tbe way under tbe rain, aud
luwa erupto their saddle-girths. They bivouacked
alter durK on the borders of Gum Hiraiup,
and during the night were again drenched with
ruin, lit'fore daylight ot the 9th they renewed their
march, their route leading almojt southwest through
swamp and wilderness to iirowu's Ferry, where they
en. t d to tbe south side of the Ocmulgee river, in
his anxiety to feiry his command over rapidly, Colo
nel Hau den allowed the boat to be everloadeU. A
plai k near the bow was sprung loose, causing tbe boat
to leak badly, and us no means were at hand wltu
wnlch to make repairs, lighter boatloads had to be
carried. This prolonged the crosslug nearly two
hours. Colonel llumden learned from the ferryman
that the parly he win pursuing hud crossed about 1
o'clock that morning, and were only a few hours
ahead of Mm ou the road leading to Irwlnsvllle. At
Abbeville, a village or three families, he halted to
feed, and Just as he was renewing his march he met
the advance party of the 4th Michigan Cavalry,
Lieutenant-Colonel B. D. Pritchard commanding,
moving on the road from Hawklnsvllle. Order
ing his detachment to continue Its march,
Colonel Hamben rode to meet Colonel Prlictiard,
and gave him such In formation in regard lo Davis'
niovemeuls as he had been able 10 gather. This was
about three P. M. After a convention between the e
ollicers. the precise details of which are variously re
potted, they separated. Colonel Hamdwn tort-Join his
command, already an hour or more In advance, and
Colonel Pritchard continuing his inarch along the
south side of the Ocmulgee, it will be remembered
that Colonel Pritchard had bet;un his march from the
vicinity of Macou on the evening of May 7, under
verbal orders given him by General M loty. In pur
suance of my Instruction. His attention was par
ticulaily directed 10 the crossings of the Ocmulgee
river, between Hawklnsvllle aud Jacksonville, near
the mouth of the Oboopee, with the object of Intur
cepllng Davis and such other itebel chiefs aimlht
be making their wuy out of the country by the
roads In that region. He had not gone more
than Hire miles nefore be obtained such
additional Information In regard to the
parly as convinced him that it was his duty to
Join in the pursuit. In this he was clearly right, and
had he done otherwise would have beeu censurable
for nigligeuce and want o' eulerpilse. Colouel Hum
den 1 avion Informed him thai he had force enough to
cope with 1 avis, Colonel Pritchard determined to
march another road, liuQInir to Irwlnsvllle hy a more
Clroul ru r ute. Why he did nol send a c jurler on
thi-rall pursued by C lonel Hauidun to notify the
lutler or hi intention', ha not bteu explaiued This
would probably have prevented the collision 'which
altei wards occurred between his regiment and that of
Colonel Uamdeu, and would uol have renaered the
capture of Davis le-s certalu. This Is not lutemled to
reflect opou the conduct of Col' liel Pritchard, lor it Is
believed that this owlaxlon was hlinply aa oversight,
which might have occurred 10 any couddent aud
zealous ofiicer. Id currying ou' the plan which
be had adopted. Colonel Pritchard selected
from his regiment seven ollicers and one
hundred aud twenty eight men, and at four
o'clock beuan the pursuit leaving the balance ot his
taxlment under command of t'apluln Hathaway,
wlibordars to picket the river aud scout the country,
lu accordance with previous Instructions. The route
pursued by Colonel Pritchard led do vu the river
nearly twelve mllcsjlo a polut opposite Wilcox's mtll,
and thence' soutuwest for a distance el eighteen
mlies. through the plus forest to Irwlnsvllle. He
reachrd Ibis pla' e tt 1 A. M. olthe 10th, and by repre
senting bis command as the rrar guard ot Davis'
f aity, be succeeded in learning from the clllzs s that
he party be was searching lor had encamped that
night at dusk uhout a mile and a half out
on tbe road towards Abbeville. Having secured
a legro guide, be turned the bead ot his column
towards that place, aud after moving to within a

Just then they were confronted by three men under

persons as Davis, advanced carbine, and dematidod

As the friends ot Davis have strennmisiv H1mi.1i
that he was dtsviiised as a woman, it mav not h. im

ton. 4th Michigan Cav-alry, who published an account

Confederals grey, had on a -ludy's walor-proof
(cloak), gutheied at the waist, with a Bhawl drawn

( olonel Pritchard says In tils olllniai report that he
lecuved Irom Mrs. Davis, on board the steamer Clyde
oil Fortress Monroe, -'a water-proof cloak or robe''
which was worn by Davis as a disguise, and which
v. as idem ilied by the men who saw it on him at the
time or the capture. He secured the balance of
thedtfgulse uextday. It consisted of a shawl, which
was identified in a similar manner by both Mrs Davis
and tbe men. From these circumstances there seems
t 1 he uo doubt whatever that Davis sought to avoid
capture by assuming tho dress of a wouan, or that

Arrangements had been already made, under In

rrgiment. was directed to aeuver ins prisoner surely
Into the custody of the Secretary of War. I also
placed In his charge the person of Clement C. Clay,
Jr.. tor whose arrest a reward had also be?u offered by
the President. Mr. Clay surrendered himself to me
at Macon, about the llth of May. having Informed
me by telegraph from Western Georgia the day be

If every cilizeu Is edticuted, each one is a living and
intelligent member of the body politic. As masses
are composed ol alums, so communities are comp sed
of individuals, and their powers proceed from tne
people. To take care of each citizen is to take care of
themselves. It is their strength to Improve each one
of llitir component particles, and thus Increase the
aggregate power. Let each Individual bo made Intol-
iiL'cni ana virtuous, and tue community, which Is lbs
.urn of ludlvldtiuls, cannot tall to i,e so.
"So far tho Northern ueonle. whose svmnithies
wero with emancipation, have cheerfully borne the
cost of such Instruction as oouid be given; slender, it
Is true, in amount, and irregular and ephemeral In
its character, but of inestimable value to tbe Ireed
meu when they were thrown upon their owu re
sources lor Hie first time. Itnl It Is fell ilnu, wiln tho
return of strength aud settlement, the Southern com
munities will not only be able and willing, but will
iilso take a pride in caring for themselves, rather
tliivii rely upon Northern aid. Reddeg. the educ tllon
now Imparted is necessarily partial, meagre, and of
mixed wystems, whereas a common school law would
be systematic in lis operation, thorough and uni
versal. "Furthermore, we would respectfully represent that
new, of all others. Is the time to act; no, while a
ludlcal change Is being made In the State Govern

We therelore earnestly entreat you to adopt such
provisions as will secure free schools. We urge you,
not as those would who have a private interest to
ceive but we petition you as those profoundly In
terested, morally, in tbe class who most neml the
hencUts ol these schools; we petition you in the name
of humanity, for the good of your Utates and our com

measure ol the soundest policy. It will develop the
