ZZi DEFENSE OF SIMTM Against the Insinuations of Senator Sherman Undertaken by A MAX TVEO HAS ALL THE PAPERS. Hon. George C. Gorham Quotes an Old Let ter of the Senator's TO PROVE THAT STAXTON WAS RIGHT "Washington, April 10. Hon. George C Gorham, as custodian of the private pa pers of Secretary Stanton, and now ensa;ed upon his biopraphy, has written .the.follow' ing open letter to Senator sShernaan. It deals with a striking portion of the Sena tor's recent address and embodies sundry important historical documents not hereto fore published: Hon. John Shrrmac United States Senate: Dear Sin In your recent address In New Tork on the character and public services of your illustrious brother, General TV". T. Sherman, you made the following reference to the terms nroposed by him for the sur render of the forces of General Joseph John ston anil other commanders at the close of the civil wan General Sherman believed In and sonsht to carry out the policy of Mr. Lincoln. Thetcrms'of surrender were tentative, and the conditions were entirely subject to tho supervision of the executive authorities: but instead of Vielne snomittcd to the generous and forjrivlns patriot who bad fallen they were passed upon in the shadow of a sjreat crime by stern and relent less enemies, who would not have consented to the conditions imposed by General Gmnt upon General Lee, and wrho would have dis regarded them had not General Grant threatened to reslan upon their refusal to carry out his terms. When tlie nrranRe rnentwlth General Johnston was submitted toiresident Johnston and Mr. Stanton, it was rejected, with the Insulting Intimation that It proceeded from either cowardice or treachery. The old cry asainst General Sherman was again started. It wa even imputed that be would attempt to play the part 01 a t-romweu or a military usurper. The generous kindness of Grant came to his relief. Xew terms were agreed upon and the war elosed." Purpose of the Senator's Attack. Ton would have it understood by this that while General Sherman was engaged in a praiseworthy and purely military act, which President Lincoln would have desired him to perform had he lived, be wasset upon and insulted and his arrangements set aside by President Johnston and Edwin M. Stanton, then Secretary or War, in a mean and nar row spirit ot revenge, because of the as sassination of Mr. Lincoln, and that at this Juncture the generous kindness of General Grant interposed between him and these alleged enemies, and that the two generals agreed on new terms and ended the war. Ton state this as though you had approved General Sherman's course. Whatever policy Mr. Lincoln might have recommended to Congress for tho restora tion of the Confederate States to their rela tions with the Union, none knewbetter than you that he would never have undertaken or usurped the powers of Congress on the sub ject, much less to allow a military subordi nate to guide him in the work by an author ized arrangement made under the super vision of Jefferson Davis and his Cabinet. Mr. Lincoln left no room for doubt on this point, for he gave the following direction to General Grant a fortnight belore the Sherman-Johnston negotiations: Lieutenant General Grant : "The President directs me to say to you that he wishes you to have no conference with General Lee unless it be for the capitu lation of Lee's army, or on .solely minor or purely military matters. He instructs me to say to you that you are not to decide, dis cuss or comer on any political question; fcuch questions the President holds in his own hands, and will submit them to no mili tary conferences or conventions. Meantime, you are to press to the utmost your military advantages. "Edwik M. Staktox, "Secretary of-War." dierznan deeded No Admonition. Ton will say that General Sherman bad riot seen this order of Mr.Lincoln's when he made his arrangement with Johnston, but it is none the less absolute proof that he (Mr. Lincoln ) would have disapproved of the arrangement. The General needed no snch admonition to teach him that the discussion of public policies in a military convention was an invasion of the civil authority, and wholly outside the powers and duties of a military commander. He frankly admitted this, and in a letter to Secietary Stanton, dated April 25. the day after receiving the Government's disapproval of his terms, he said: "I admit myfolly in embracing in a military convention any civic matters." You represented General Grant as coming to General Sherman's relief, from which those not acquainted with the history of the case would sunuose that he anDroved the agreement. W hen you made this statement you must have known that General Grant condemned General Sherman's act before consulting either President Johnston or Secretary Stanton. He wrote to General Sherman, acknowledging the receipt of the agreement, and said: "I read it carefully before submitting it to the President and Secretary of War. and felt satisfied that It could not possibly be approved." In the same letter he states that upon his sugges tion a Cabinet meeting was called, the re sult of which was "the disapproval by the President of the basis laid down and the disapproval of the negotiations altogether, except for the surrender of the army com manded by General Johnston, and an order lor the termination of the armistice and the resumption of hostilities." Grant to Secretary Stanton. I have before me while I write the original of the following note from General Grant to Secretary Stanton: "IIEADO.TTARTEBS 1 Armies or tue TJkited States. "WASniJ.GTOX, D. O, April 21, 1S65. ) "Hon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War: "Sin I have received and Just completed reading the dispatches brought by special messenger from General Sherman. They are of such importance that I think im mediate :iction should be taken on them, and it should be done by the President In council with bis whole. Cabinet. I would re spectfully suggest whether the President should not be notified and all his Cabinet and a meeting take place to-night. "Very respectfully, your obedient sen-ant. "V S. Grakt, Lieutenant General." General Grant started immediately after the adjournment of the Cabinet meeting for Ibtleigh, X. C, and arrived at Sherman's headquarters on the 2ith to execute the President's order. Under this order Sher man gave notice that hostilities would be resumed, whereupon Johnston's army was surrendered upon the terms accorded by Grant to Lee. As a matter of prudence and necessity Sir. Stanton telegraphed to General John A. Dix. then in Xew York, with permission to pub lish the same, a copy ot the Sherman-John-mod agreement and its disapproval by the Government. To it was appended the reasons for its disapproval. These reasons were as lol!ow: A L-ng List oriteasons. First It was an exercise of an authority not vested in General Sherman, and on its face shows that both he and Johnston knew that General Sherman had jio authority to enter into any such arrangement. Si-cond It whs a practical acknowledge ment of the rebel Government. Third It undertook to re-establish the rebel State Government that had been over thrown at the sacrifice ot many thousand loynl lives and an immense treasury, and placed the arms and munitions of war in the liand or the rebels at their respectix e capi tals which might be used as soon as the ar miesot the United bratcs were disbanded, and used to conquer and subdue the loyal Slates. Fourth P.y the restoration or rebel rmtl'oiity in their lespective States they wc mid be enabled to re-establish slavery. , Fifth It iniht lurnish a ground of re sponsibility for the Federal Government to pay the rebel debts and certainly subiect the loyal natives of rebel States to debts contrite. eu ny reueis in mo state. Mxth It would put in dispute the exist ence of loyal State Governments and the new State of West Virginia, which had been recognized bv every department of tho United States Government. seventh It practically abolished the con fiscation Ian sand relieved the rebels of cvM"y daree who had slaugntered our peo ple, irom all pains and penalties 'for their crimes. Eighth It gave terms that had been"delib eraicly, repc-ttedly and solemnly rejected by President Lincoln, and better terms than the rebels had ever asked in their most pros perous condition. "" Ninth It lormed no basis of true and last ing peace, but relieved the rebels from tbo pressure of our victories and lett them in condition to renew theircflbrts toovcrtbrow the United States Government and subdue t c ioyal Slates whenever their nlrength was recruited and any opportunity "was offered. Ills Publication Tfas Demanded. The publication . of these ' reasons was absolutely demanded in the Interest of tho public safety. The expectations which Gen eral Sherman had raised in the minds of tho army and the people that our soldiers only awaited the President's order to return rejoicing to their homes could not bo real ized under his terms, consistently with the dignity of sarety of tho country. This bad to bo made evident to the people and the army, to prevent serious and perhaps dan gerous discontent. Hon. Jacob Collamer, then a Senator Irom the State of Vermont, in a letter to Mr. Stanton, dated June 1, lS66,expressed his opinion on this point as fol lows: "General Sherman promulgated to his army and the world his arrangements with Johnston. Indeed, the armistied could not in any other way be accounted for, and the, army was gratified with the expectation of an immediate return nome. j.o reject mat arrangement was clearly necessary, and to do It without stating any reason for it would have Deen a very dangerous experiment be tween tho public and the army. Indeed, many had serious apprehensions of its effect on the armv, even with the con clusive reasons which were given. Should not this view be. presented In any and every true manifesto of the case?" It is not "necessary here to discuss the terms. No one in his senses will question tho good intentions or General Sherman in agreeing 'to thein, but it is the troth of history that they were rejected by Union people of tho country at the time as unani mously as they were by the President and the Cabinet. Old Letters Sometimes Inconvenient. In conclusion, allow me to quote one more authority in support of Mr. Stanton's view, and In condemnation of General Sherman's fearful mistake. The authority will not be seriously questioned by you. It reads as follows: "Clevxlasd, O.. Anril 27. 1863. "Mr Deah Sib I am distressed beyond measure at the terms granted Johnston by General Sherman. They are inadmlssable. There should now oe literally no terms granted. Wo should not only brand the leading rebels with Infamy, but the whole rebellion should wear the badge of the peni tentiary, so that for this generation at least no man who has takenpart in it would dare lustify or palliate it. Yet with these views I teel that gross injustice has been done f AnAwnl d a wMn nri annarilnl I T rtTT th A press. The most that can be said about him is that he granted the rebels too liberal terms. The same may be said, but In a less degree, of Mr. Lincoln and General Grant, in their arrangement with Leo. General Sherman had not understood tho political J bearing of that agreement. It is his mis fortune that he believes the promises of these men, and looks upon the whole con test in a simple view. He thought the dis- uanumg oi tneir armies is ine eno. oi me war, while we know that to arm them with the elective franchise and State organiza tions Is to re-form the war. "I feel so troubled at this matter, follow ing so closely upon the death of Mr. Lincoln, that I was inclined to drop everything and go to Raleigh, but I promised to Join the funeral cortege here, and on Saturday we have agreed to deliver a eulogy of Mr. Ltncoln at Mansfield. This over, I will gladly .go to Washington or anywhere else where I can render the least service. "I do not wish General Sherman to be nn Jnstly dealt with, and 1 know that you will not permit it, and especially I do not want him driven into fellowship with the Copper heads. His military services have been too valuable to'the country to be stained by any such fellowship. If you can in your multiplied engagements drop me a line, pray do so. You can, If you choose, show this to the President, or, indeed, to anyone. Trnly vours, Joes Sexkuuh. "Ho:". E. M. Staktoit.Y No Reference to Any Insult. I do not find in this letter any reference to the insult with which you now assert" that General Sherman's terms were rejected by President Johnston and Mr. Stanton. But I do find in It an assurance from you to Secretary Stanton that you knew he would not permit General Sherman to be unjustly dealt with. You could not have said this had you thought Mr. Stanton himself had already dealt unjustly with bim by publish ing the treasons above quoted, and which had been in print in every leading newspa per of the country four days before you wrote your letter. I honored and admired General Sherman. I knew him personally, and enjoyed the honor of his friendship. No more patriotic American, no braver or more faithful sold inr ever lived. Bnt I also honored and ad mired Mr. Stanton, whose biographer I have . unueriaKen nnu wnose private papers are in my keeping; and I cannot remain silent when one of the greatest and wisest of his official acts is brought forward, misstated and perverted in a useless effort to show that General Sherman was right, when he, himself, admitted with the concurrence of Senator Sherman) that be was wrong.
