The Indian Controversy,
PIIIIADELPIII.A, Jan. 4, 1869. —Editor of
the y Evening Bulletin: Major-Gen. W. S.
Hancock, in a letter to the New York Time+,
of Dec. 22,1868, says that I was unwarranted
in implying that he committed a breach of
faith in his intercoursewith me at the time
of the destruction of the Cheyenne villages
on Pawnee Fork, April 19, 1867. He also
states that his action in the matter met the
approval of his commanding officer, Lieut.-
General Sherman. The following is an ex
tract from the report of the Indian Peace Com
riliiasion, signed by Lieut.--Gen. Sherman,
One Of the members of that Commission. In
referring to (len. Hanoock's expedition, the
Commission says:
"The expedition left Fort Larned on the
13th of April, and proceeded up the Pawnee
fork ot-the Aikansas, in the direction of a
village of a thousand or fifteen hundred Chey
ennes and Sioux. When he came near their
camp, the chiefs visited him, as they had al
ready Pone at Lamed, and requested him not
to approach the camp with his troops, for
the women and children, having the remem
brance of Sand creek, would certainly aban
don the village. Ou the 14th he resumed his
march, with cavalry, infantry and artillery,
and; when about ten miles from their village,
he' was again met by the head men, wuo
stated that they would treat with him there
or ekewhere,but they could not, as requested
by him, keep their women and children in
camp if he approached with soldiers. He in
formed them that he would march up. to
Within a mile of the village, and
treat with them that evening. As
be proceeded the Women fled, leaving the
village, with all their property. The chiefs
and a part of the young men remained. To
some of these, visiting the camp of General
Hancock, horses were furnished to bring
back the women. The horses were returned
with word that the women and children could
not be collected. It was then night. Orders
ware then given to surround the village and
capture the Indians remaining. The order
was obeyed, but the chiefs and warriors had
departed. The only persons found were an
old Sioux and an idiotic girl of eight or nine
years of age. It afterwards appeared that the
persOn 'of this girl had been violated, from
which she :soon died. The Indians were gone,
and the report spread that she had been a cap
tive among them, and they had committed
this outrage before leaving. The Indians say
that she was an idiotic Cheyenne girl, for
gotten in the confusion of digut—and if
violated, it was not by them.
"The next morning. General Custer, under
orders, started in pursuit of4the Indians with
his cavalry, and performed a campaign of
great labor and suffering, passing over a vast
extent of cuuntry, but seeing no hostile
Indians. I'Vhen the fleeing Indiana reached
the Smoky Hill they destroyoda station and
killed several men. A courier having brought
this intelligence to tieneral Hancock, he at
once ordered the Indian village, of about
three hundred lodges,together with the entire
property of the tribes, to be burned."
' The above plainly proves that Gen. Han
cock, with a large command of infantry, ar
tillery an& cavalry,
marched up to the Indian
village, catsing the flight of women and
Children then surrounded the village with
his troops, for the purpose of capturing all
which it contained—which meant killing what
Indians were there, for - no Indian will he
taken prisoner—and afterwards pursued them
with his cavalry. What means, ptcreuit

JEFF. DAVIS.
A True and. ilenest Account of .Hlo
Flight-new kite nabbed the frets,.
bury-How File Kept at Abbeville-
Mr Alexander IL Morticing Insults
alms
In the January number of Packard's
Monthly, Mr. Edward A. Pollard has a
"true" sketch of the flight and capture of
Jefferson Davis, We cut from it the fol
lowing extracts, which are of more than usual
interest:
PREPARATIONS FOR FLIGHT.
While Grant and Lee thundered before
Petersburg, Jefferson Davis fled from Rich
mond, without a word of explanation; with
none of that benediction or encouragement
which a great leader is expected to impart to
his people in such a catestrophe—escap
iug with the ignominy of an ob
scure, mean fugitive, if not positively in the
character of a deserter. Some explanation
has been offered of his singular neglect on
this occasion of those who, in his day of
power, he was accustomed, after the affecta
tion of a fond and paternal ruler ,
to call "his
people," in the statement that the Govern
ment at Richmond had no expectation of
Lee's disaster, and was thus painfully hurried
in its evacuation of the capital.
The statement is untrue, and the excuse is
unavailing. The writer well knows, what
has not heretofore been imparted to public Cu
riosity,that Jefferson Davis had, many weeks
before Lee's catastrophe, made the most care
ful and exacting preparations for his eseape.
The matter had been fully consulted with his
Cabinet in profound secrecy; and it had been
agreed that, to secure the escape of the
President and hie principal officers, the
Shenandoah should be ordered to cruise off
the coast of Florida, to' take the distinguished
fugitives on board, who had, selected the coast
fox-their exit from the confederacy and their
extrication from its falling fortunes. These
orders had been sent to the confederate
cruiser many days before Lee's lines were
broken.
It was calculated that the President's
party might make an easy and deliberate es
cape in the way agreed upon, as the comma
nicutione with the Florida coast were then
scarcely doubtful, and once on the Shenan
posh, a fast sailer, the most valuable remnant
of 'the Confederate Navy, they might soon
obtain an asylum on a foreign snore. Other
preparations were made for the flight; all the
papers of the government were revised and
marked for destruction, abandonment or pre
servation, according to their contents ; and
even Mr. Davis's private baggage was put in
order for transportation. Of course the public
knew nothing of these preparations; and it
did not even suspect them. Mr. Daniel, of
the Richmend Examiner, had repeatedly
said, with bitterness, that whatever the event
of the war, whatever its misfortune, Mr.
Davis would be certain to provide for his per
sonal safety, above that of all others; and in
deed this journal had suggested that, for this
mean reason, the President had invariably
blanched at any retaliation upon the enemy
involving the penalty of death.
But many people resented this thought of
the Examiner; they persisted in believing
that President Davis would stand with the
army when the Confederate flag was lowered,
and accept a common lot: with them and the
people; and they called to mind his heroic
worps, spoken to the troops in Virginia in
186 1., at the beginning of the war, "When
the last line of bayonets is leveled I will be
with you."
After having safely bestowed his important
papers, and by this measure consulted to
some degree his personal safety, it might be
supposed that Mr. David would be prepared
to leave Richmond with some appearance of
self possession and dignity.
But after all the provisions for his flight,
the signal I' Tr it, was so sudden wad dramatic
—announced to him in Lee's dread telegram,
while he sat in St. Peel's Caurch, with the
sunshine of a calm and beautiful day pulsing
through the windows—as to have some effect
of surprise at hurt; breaking down his equa
nimity, and reducing him to that condition
of fluster and tremulousness with which the
weak man receives the news of misfortune,
no matter how long he has vaguely expected
it, and practiced against the inOinent of its
announcement.
TIE ROBS THE TREASURY.
He nervously prepared at his house his
private baggage, assisted by Mrs. Davis, and
be never ventured in the streets until, under
cover of the night, he got unobserved on the
train that was to convey him from Richmond.
He did not forget tho gold ha the Treasury;
that, amounting to less than forty thousand
d( llsrs, it had been proposed some days be
fore, in Congress, to distribute as largesses
to the discontented soldiers; but Mr. Davis had
insisted upon reseiving.it for exigencies, and
it was now secured in his baggage. He did
not forget his sword. That, a costly present
from some of his admirers in England, had
been sent to the Richmond Armory for some
repairs; it was abandoned to the fire there.
The last seen of this relic of the Southern
Confederacy was a twisted and gnarled stem
of steel, on private exhibition in a lager beer
saloon in Richmond, garnished with a certi
ficate that it was what remained of Jeff.
Davis's sword,and that the curiosity might be
purchased for two hundred dollars. Whether
the retailer of lager has yet;disposad of his
treasure we do not know.
HE 'WEEPS AT A BEET ILRE .
Mr. Davie reached Abbeville on the Ist of
May. So far be bad been accompanied by
the fragments of five brigades, amounting in
number to less than one thousand men, and
reorganized into two battalions, at the front
and In rear of the long traiu which signaled.his
flight and - foolishly obstructed his effort at
escape. There were already painful evidences
of the demoralization of the escort,,and the
story told almost at every mile by stragglers
from Johnson's command was not calculated
to inspire them. At Abbeville Mr. Davis re
solved upon a council of war. It was com
posed of the five brigade commanders, and
General Braxton Bragg (for the year past the
"military adviser" of the President) was ad
mitted to this last scene of Lhe deliberations of
the LOST CAUSE,
In the council Mr. Davis spoke with more
than his accustomed facility and earnestness,
inspired by hope, but without volubility or
extravagance. He made a statement of sur
passing plausibility. The South,he declared,
was suffering from a panic; it yet had re
sources to continue the war; it was for those
who remained with arms in their hands to
give an example to reanimate others; such
an act of devotion, besides being the most
sublime thing in history, Might yet save the
country, and erect again its declining resalu
tion. "It is but necessary," he said, "that
the brave men yet with me should renew the
determination to continue the war; they will
be a nucleus for rapid re-enforcements, and
will raise the signal of reanimation for 4o
whole country."
No one of the• council answered him at
length; the replies of the commanders were
almost sunk to whispers; the scene was be
coming painful; and it was at last agrees that
each in his turn should announce his de -
;.: ; , ,Each anawerea sleAtir,
'
Arit tlie negative; the onlsrzaroida adds •or,eie
thaft k bkingh they considdlen the war hive
lesatolhey would not disband their men *ail
they :bad guarded the Pyesident to # place of
aafety.:
"No," exclaimed Mr. .`Davis, passionately,
"lowill listen to no propel/Mon for my safety.
I appeal to you for the eause of the coun
try. ' Again he Arged , the '.oMmanders •to
accept his views.
"We were silent," saYa - 'General %Basil
Duke, one of the council, "for we could not
agree with him, and we respected him too
much to reply."
Mr. Davis yet stood erect, raised his bawls
to his head; as ir in pain, and iiiiddenly ex
claimed, "all hope is gone!" added haugh
tily, "I see that the friends of the South are
prepared to consent to her degradation;" and
then sweeping the company with a proud and
despairing glance, he attempted to pass from
the room.
But the blow was too much for his feeble
organization. His face was white with anger
and disappointment, and the mist of unshed
tears, was in his eyes—tears which pride
struggled to keep back. The sentiment that
all was lost went through his heart like the
slow` and measured thrust of a sword; as the
wound sunk into it, it left him speechless,
loose and tottering; he would have fallen to
the floor, bad not Gen. Breckinridge ended
the scene by leading him faltering from the
room. In a dead and oppressive silence the
deserted leader, the fallen chief, secured a de
cent retreat for agonies which , tears only
could relieve.
lIE IS INSULTED
. . .
The cruelest neglect or insult of his misfor
tune happened in passing through the small
town of Griswoldville,the home of Alexander
H. Stephens. Mr. Davis, now an.,object of
sympathy, worn, deserted, remained two or
three days in Griswoldville. He might there,
at least,have expected that one who had been
so near him in office as the Vice.Presideat of
the Confederacy, would , have visited him, to
tender some hospitality, or to offer an honor
able condolence. Mr. Stephens never came
nearhim; never sent him token or message, to
his shame be it mentioned; for surely a mean
nature is never more despicable than in its
treatment of misfortune, and its cowardly
refuge, on such occasions, in old resentments
or in selfish calculations.
RE BECOMES AN EMIGRANT.
On leaving Griswoldville it. was determined
that Mr. Davis and his family, whom he ex
peeled soon to overtake, should thereafter
travel as an emigrant party. Mr. Reagan
was still in his company. General Breckin
ridge had left outside the town of Washing
ton, taking with him forty-five Kentucky
soldiers—a straggling remnant of Moron's
old brigade. Ten mounted men had offered
to escort Mrs. Davis, and although they had
accepted their paroles, justly considered that
they might protect a distressed lady from
marauders. All tokens of the President's
importance, in dress and air, were laid Wile;
covered wagons, a pack mule and cooking
utensils were provided at Washington; and it
was designed that Mr. Davis, his wife, and
his wife's sister should pass as a simple
country family emigrating from Georgia, and
having fallen in with straggling soldiers for
Uieir protection.
Mr. Davis's dignity was laid aside without
much clinically. Carlyle says: "A king in
the midst of his body-guard, with all his
trumpets, war-horses, and gilt standard bear
ers, will look great though he be little ; but
only some Roman Carus can give audience
to satrap embassadors while seated on the
ground, with a wooden cap, and supping on
boiled peas, like a common soldier." Mr.
Davis, in the dress of a_country farmer, had
none of those traces of imperialism which
cling to those "born to the purple." His
features, just and handsome, without being
remarkable,were those which might command
by assumed airs, or might be practiced to
particular expressions, but scarcely those
which could assert superiority without an ef
fort and at a glance. He incurred but little
chance of detection in the dress ha had as
sumed of an honest, well-to-do emigrant.
But the last device of the distinguished
fugitive, the only one in which he had shown
any ingenuity, and had confessed his real
anxiety for escape, was in vain, and he was
captured three days' journey from Washing
ton. He had 'scarcely expected to fall in
with an enemy north of the Onattahoochee
river, the boundary of the Department of the
Southwest, and there he had designed to part
with his wife, and to commit her to her jour
ney to the Shenandoah. He was overtaken
by a small body of Federal cavalry,originally
sent out to post a skirmish line through that
part of Georgia leading to Augusta, but now
diverted to his pursuit.
'MAT WICEED fiVIRY.3
The wicked and absurd story that Mr.
Davis was captured disguised in female at
tire is scarcely now credited. He was
aruused in the early gray of the morning by
a faithful negro servant (the same who has
since attended his brohen fortunes) who had
been awakenedby the sound of &mg in the
woods. .
The President had not laid off his clothes,
and, in a moment, he had issued from the
tent where he had been sleeping. Toe woods
were filled with mounted troops,ill-dedned in
the mist of the breaking morning, and noti
cing that they were deploying, as if to sur
round the camp,_he quickly imagined their
character and design, and returned within the
tent, either to alarm hire. Davis or there to
submit decently to capture. She besought
him to escape and, urging him to an opening
in the tent, threw over his shoulders a shawl
which' be had been accustomed to wear. His
.horse, a.fleet and spirited one, was tied to a
tree at some distance. He was within a few
steps of the animal that might have borne him
out of danger when a Federal soldier halted
him, and demanded to know if he was armed.
A Letter from Gen. Washington.
A Rome correspondent of the Utica /her
ald furnishes that-paper a copy of a letter
from George Washington, in 1783, to Dr.
Robert Cochran, director, at the time, of the
military hospital at Newburg, in New York.
The correspondent says:
The signature to the letter is in the :*bwn
proper hand of the Father of his Country.
The letter is written on a sheet of coarse or
dinary foolscap,in common use in those days
and was folded in an oblong shape, as was
customary before envelopes were in vogue,
and .was fastened with sealing wax. On the
upper right hand outside corner were the
words, 'On public service;" after the super
scription, and at the lower left hand corner,
was written again, "Go. Washington," in the
own handwriting of Washington. It was
presented many years ago by Dr. C. to Judge
Wardwell, of this place, in whose possession
it now is, and by whom it is carefully pm
served. A copy is appended:
Recxv HILL, 4th March, 1783.—Sir: The
troops in Pennsylvania and to the southward
of it (except the garrison at. Fort Pitt), being
all discharged by _a proclamation of this day,
it appears to me no longer necessary to keep
in service so many officers of the Hospital
Department as are included in the written
copy of the subsistence roll for this month,
lately transmitted to roe.
I am now to desire you to transmit to me,
as soon as possible, a list of such of the offi
ters of your department as it will be abso
lutely necessary to retain for the troops which
remain in service, and to acquaint the rest
that their services are no longer necessary.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
Go. WASHINGTON.

CITY BULLETIN.
THE. RILL HOHICIDE.—SiEtS. TwITCHELL'S
TRlAL.—Yesterday, in the Quarter Bessions,after
the Grand Jury had been called, and the Petit
Jury had been discharged, and the Court was
about to adjanro, Wm. B. Mann appeared before
Judge Allison and called attention to the case of
Mrs. Camille Twitchell, charged with the murder
of Mrs. Bill, and asked if ary day had been fixed
for her trial, and suggested that an early day be
named.
District Attorney Sheppard stated that no day
had as yet been decided upon. The Common
wealth had no desire to delay the trial, and with
out assigning a definite period, would say thtit it
bbetild be tried at as early a moment as was con
sistent with public justice in the case.
Mr. Mann—l can recognize In her case why
the Constitution prescribes a speedy trial. What
ever evidence she may have as to her inncceuce
is liable to fade away. She has been in prison
ever since November last,a month in which more
homicides were committed than could probably
be tried in four months.
Judge Allison—There should be a more definite
answer than that of the District-Attorney. The
counsel are entitled to know when the trial will
come off, but if this is to be an application for the
fixing of a day it should be made when there is
3notber Judge on the bench, who can be brought
in at any moment, and then, ll the District-Attor
ney cannot assign a day, the Court will consider
what Is a sufficient time to prepare for trial.
It was then agreed that a formal application
should be made this morning, Judge Allison
ordering Mrs. Twitchell to be brought up from
prison so as to be present.
ASSOCIATION FOR TEE RELIEF OF DISABLED
FIREMEN —The 35th annual meeting of the &sm.
elation for the Relief of Disabled Firemen was
held at the Hall of the Fire Association, corner
of Fifth and North streets, last evening. The
annual report of the Board of Trustees was road,
showing that the income of the Association for
the year was $4,011 06, and the expenditures
$2,771 50. Of the latter sum $2,186 19 was given
for relief of 53 persons, 10 of whom were widows
and orphansof deceased firemen, making the to
tal amount expended for relief since the date of
the institution $35,979 36. The capital stock of
the Association has been increased during the
year $1,239 56, and now aggregates $36,599 17.
The report contains some practical suggestions
in relation to the necessity of a rigid enforcement
of the law regulating hatchways in storehouses.
The Trustees denounce the practice of fast and
reckless driving of steam Ere engines through the
streets, and reaffirm their determination not to
grant any relief to a driver, or engineer who may
be hurt by reason of the reckless driving of a
steam engine on which he may be riding. The
following persons were elected Trustees to serve

The Frigate Bird.
Day reappeap and I, see a small blttp point
in the heaven. ; ,:;Nappy, and .Serene region,
which has rested in peace far above the hur.
ricanei In that blue ,point r and at an eleva
tion ofi ten-thousand -feet; royally floats a lit-
tie bird with enormous pens. A gull? No;
its wings are black- An eagle? , No; the
bird is too small.' It is the little. ocean-eagle,'
gist and chief of the winged race, the daring
navigator who never furls his sails, the lOrd
of the tempest, the scorner of all peril .,-- 'the
man-of-war. or frigate bird.
' We have readied the cnlminatine - point of
the series commenced ,by the wingless bird.
Here we have a bird which As virtually
more than wings; scarcely any body--barely
as large as that of the domestic cock—while
hie prodigious pinions are fifteen feet in span.
The [treat problem' of 'flight is solved and
overpaesed, for the power of flight seems use
less. ra bird, naturally r anst allied by
such supports, need but allow himself to be
borne along. The storm bursta; he mounts
to lofty heights, where he' finds
tranquillity, The poetic - metaphori
untruewhen applied. ; to any,
other bird, is no exaggeration when applied
to him; literally, - he sleeps upon *the - storm.
When he chooees to oar his way seriously,all
distance vanishes; he breakfasts at the Sens
gal ;7' he dines in America. at, If lie, thinks
tit to take more time, and amuse himself on
the way, he can do so. He may continue
his progress through the night indefinitely,
certain of reposing himself. Upon what ?
On his huge motionless wing, which takes
upon itself all the weariness of the voyage; or
on the wind, his slave, which eagerly hastens
Observe, moreover; that this strange being
is gifted with the proud prerogative of fearing
nothing In this world. Little, but strong and
intrepid, he braveiall the tyrants of the air.
He, can despise, if need be, the pygareue
and the condor; those huge'.•. nnwieldly crea
tures will with great difficulty have put
themselves in motion when he shall have
already achieved a distance, of ten leagues.
Oh! it is then that envy 'seizes us, when,
amid the glowing azure of the tropics, at
incredible altitedes, almost 'imperceptible in
the dim remoteness, we see him triumphantly
sweeping past es—this black, solitary bird,
alone in the waste of heaven; or, at the most,
at a lower elevation, the snow-white sea
swallow crosses his flight in easy grace ! Why
dolt thou not take me upon thy pens, 0
king of the air, thou fearless and unwearied
master of space, whose wondrously swift
flight annihilates time ? Who, ,more than
thou, is raised above the mean fatalities of
existence? P
One thing, however, has astonished me:
that, when contemplated from near at hand,
the first of the winged kingdom ehoald have
nothing of that serenity which a free life
promises. His eye is cruelly hard, severe,
mobile, unquiet. His vexed attitude is that
of some unhappy sentinel doomed,under pain
of death, to keep watch over the infinity of
ocean. He visibly exerts himself to see afar;
and if his vision does not avail him, the doom
is on his dark countenance; nature condemns
him, he dies.

which seemed their sanatorium, levying con
tributions upon the young noddies, their vas
sals, and nourishing themselves on the results
of their fishing. Hut in the vigor of their
prime they do not rest on earth; living like
the clouds, constantly floating on their vast
wings from one world to another, patiently
awaiting their fortune and piercing the infinite
heaven—the infinite waters—withimplacable '
glance. The lord of the winged race i 9 he
who does not rest. The chief of navigators
is he who never reaches his bourne. Earth ,
and sea are almost equally prohibited to him.
He is forever banished. Let us envy nothing.
No existence is really free here below, no
career is sufficiently extensive, no power of
flight sufficiently great, no wing can satisfy. ,
The most powerful is but a temporary sub- '
stitnte. The soul waits, demands, and hopes
for others:
"Wings to soar above life;
Wings to soar beyond death."
