Proclamation hi 4 Pesirt L
In (lie i'liilndclphiu Pre** of Mon
day, F. A. 15urr gives si loug and in
teres ting account of his last interview
with Judge lJlaok, in which the latter
referred at length to Jell' 1 )avi*' attack
upon him. From Mr. Burr's account
of what Judge Black said we make
the following extracts:
"It has taken Mr. Davis more than
20 years to bring me to the block. His
effort is as amusing a- were the antics
and sayings of Ilip \ an \\ inkle to
the plain country people among wh an
he awoke after his 20 year- slumber.
He brings news to the American p<o
pie in the charge upon which he ar
raigns me. It, as he says, | violated
inv oath of otliee because I denied the
right of secession, urged the pr> -blent
to protect government property in the
south and put i.-h all "H'emler.- against
the laws of the land, I am glad of it.
I should do the same thing again, if
called upon to net in a like emergency.
But what does Mr. Davis say of his
acts? If they can now meet the ap
proval of his consider cc he niu-t have
an elastic one. He was a senator of
the United States while he was ia the
conspiracy to destroy the government.
He was pleading tor peace while he
was planning war. It is too late now
for hini to exhibit his ingenious argu
ments in the senate for a peaceful solu
tion of the difficulties while he was
playing the president withpernici us
advice and endeavoring to influence
hiai to disregard the constitutional
obligations. His judgment must have
entirely let go its hold on his pa—i >n
wdien he penned that charge, or he
may have been trying to he funny. 11
it was a violation of my oath, or • von
a straining of the proprieties <>! my
position, that I fought by night and
try day the schemes of the Sei i --ionists,
Mr. Davis has done me a great -> rviee
by proclaiming it. I wi-h I c ail 1
bring some charge against him, touch
ing his conduct in that ori-i-, that
would be as much to his credit. It his
conclusions in this his last paper were
a- sound his attack upou me i*
vicious, 1 might say he i- a great and
g iod man. lie has struck so wildly,
however, that

"If there was anything at that time
that illustrated the supreme impudence
of the Secessionists, it was their de
mand that Major Anderson should
not lie permitted to lerve Fort Moul
trie. He acquits the president of the
responsibility of granting permi--ion
to Major Anderson to occupy Sumter
in c.-se his judgment so dictated, and
lays the charge at my door. I father
the responsibility, if responsibility i
ncceasary, as cheerfully now as I did
in the heat of that controversy. It it
was an insult to the people >d" South
Carolina for the executive to strength
en the hands of that little hand of
federal soldiers in Charleston barb r,
I cannot see it so. Whether the presi
dent intended that the orders to Major
Anderson should lie so framed as t i
give him the right to move into Sum
ter, I cannot say. But when I wrote
the order, such was my intention, and
I have no excuse to offer for that a< t.
If it provoked war, as Mr. Davis de
clares it did, it was because those who
were then wilfully menacing the Feder
al government made it a pretext for
the crime of revolt. In the mighty
events then chasing each other in rapid
succession, I played no part which lias
the more cordial approval of my con
science to-day than in framing that
order that carried Major Anderson
from Fort Moultrie to Fort Sumter.
What Mr. Davis says about the com
missioners from South Carolina pro
ceeding upon some sort of assurances
from the executive, is ridiculous. The
president had no right to treat with
these people as the commissioners of u
state and he declined to do so. They
were simplv three respectable gentle
men whom the president treated civil
ly, and they assumed an importance
never justified by the facts.
"It will not do at this day for Mr.
Davis to write about the '[teaceful in
tentions' of himself and his fellow
Secessionists. Their assault upon the
government was deliberate and prede
termined, and their cries of pace,
while they were for war unless they
could have their own way, were only
the vapor with which they hoped to
envelop their real purposes. Mr. Davis
began earlv after Mr. Lincoln's elec
tion to urge his views upon the presi
dent and he was recognized among the
Secessionists as their most important
agent. Cobb was one of the worst
Secessionists I ever knew and one of
the ablest men. Thompson, a south
erner, a man of integrity and superior
powers. Floyd had little influence.
Mr. Davis was called to Washington
from Mississippi by his southern friend*
in the cabinet, that they might have
their most potent advocate near the
executive while the message was being
prepared. He did the work of his
elan most faithfully, and because he
did not succeed he assailed the presi-
dent after the message was read, and
never until now, that I huvo heard of,
appeared as his defender. That Mr.
Buchanan wus strong enough to resist
the appeals of Davis and his fellows,
bravo enough to defy their arrogance,
and clear headed enough to escape the
traps with which they surrounded him
is to his lasting credit. Tliev did him
1 great injustice then, and they have
I never repented that I know of. They
j enveloped him in an atmosphere and
j gave a coloring to some of his acts
that the facts did not justify. They
furnished the 'ammunition by which
ihe has been successfully slandered
from that da}* to this. Mr. Davis
calls him.-clf the old friend of Mr.
Buchanan. This, indeed, is the acme
of sarcasm.

"Just after the election of J8il(t —
, even before any southern statu had
taken it decided -top toward -eceision,
one of the senators frun. South ('aro
linn left the capitol in a hull", dt dar
ing the election of Mr. Lincoln meant
civil war,and that be would no longer
serve in the senate. This was the first
significant act pointing to .-ec< .-ion,
and it made an impression upon Mr.
Buchanan's mind. Very soon alter it
occurred he took occasion to say to
me :
"'Judge, have tin-e people any
right to secede '.' I>o you find any
warrant in the constitution for a state'.-
withdrawing from the Federal I tiioli
"'None on earth,' I replied. 'This
1 nion can never lie destroyed, except
. by lire ami -word.'
"'I tim glad that your opinion i- in
i xaet accord with mine upon that sub
ject,'-aid lie. 'I have been giving
this matter a great deal of thought,
and n iw that you ngr< ■ with nu I am
convinced that my conclusions are
sound. The 1 niou i- indi.---bible."
"' 1 hi- union,' -aid 1, 'is perpetual.
<)f course it may be broken up by
revolution, but not lv |ieacci'ul un-th
i ds. It there i-anything -etthd by
argument it i- that the compact be
tween the state- is in no sense 1 ik-- a
. business partner-hip, that may h- dis
dved hv th>- ac ti i of ither party,
or by appeal to a court of equity.'
"We disctl—ed the Huh'ict in this
vein tbr a few minutes, and Mr. Bu
chanan expn--- I himself with great
fraiikiic-s, all the time a—uining that
the peaceable -• <• --i >u of a -late was
not possible, finally he turned to me
and -aid :
"'Ought not iho executive to state
hi- conclusions upon this subject, -o
that the |eople limy know the exact
attitude of my ndmini.-trnti n?'
"'M'.-t n-suredly,' 1 replied, '\ u

severely oppo-td to -eeo—ion.'

"'ln the mes-agc' was my respitise.

wa- that it would he more, dignified t<>
deal with it in the im --ii and -• I

it himself the result would have been

the tir-t line to the last would hav

and would have stated conclusion- so
powerfully as po--ib!e to have stayed
the madm-- ot -ece—ion, then in its
infancy. I d > not say that it w.uld
have altered tli* cour-c of the leaden,
but it might have had a -triking i tb-et
upon their constituency. The people
then would not have puhed nor veti
followed them. I did not discover the
breadth of my nii-take until it was
too lnte. When I aid 'ln the mes
sage' I had not weighed the powerful
influence that was to surround Mr.
I Buchanan for the balance of his term. J
i I do not mean to say that the influence
I was strong enough to alter his views
upon sect—ion f>r temper hi- fidelity
to the t nion, for he was as honest a
patriot ns ever lived. But the Sere---
ionists were ever able and alert. They
lost no opportunity to ply the presi
dent with their sedition* art*, and
when he cntne to write that feature of
the message which dealt with the
southern question they had possessed
him with the idea that he should argue
questions that had been settled since
the foundation of the government, in
stead of stating conclusions that the
humblest might have read ami under
stood. Sound though his arguments
were, they were liable to misconstrue
i lion, and the force of hi* views was
i lost, as finally presented in the message.
" They became a two edged sword,

' }' on - H was a serious misplay of
judgment, both on hi* part and mine.
I was not respmsihle for his final action
r for I did my licst to induce him to
pronounce judgment upon the heresy
• of secession rather than fill his state
pa|icr with,profound arguments which
i the pcoole would not read nor appro
i ciate. 1 was at fault, however, for not
! taking the hull by the horns by advis*
• ing a proclamation. Huch a document
; would have reached the people, who
i nowhere at that time favored secession.
I The message reached only an unwilling
congress and those who had already
determined upon rebellion. It wo* an
error of judgment rather than of
I heart; hot 1 do not phnd that in *tny
jof execution. The administration
should have rendu d the American
! people through a (<ingle blunt on the
