thc Colonel would lip at his if he stood be
fore Ctesur, and I replied :
"We thank you, Mr. Davis. It i3 not
often that you meet men of our clothes rind
our principles in llichmond."'
"JSot often, not so often, as I could wiah;
nnd 1 trust your coming may lend to n more
frequent and n more friendly intercourse be
tween the Xorth nml the South."
"We sincerely hope it may."
"Mr. Benjamin tells me" that you have
asked to see ute to "
And he paused, ns if desiring we should
finish the wentenee. The Colonel replied :
"Yes, Sir. Vc htive asked this interview,
in the hope that you may suarest some way
by which this war may bo stopped. Our
people want .peu:'e, your people do, nml
your Congress has recently said that yon do.
We have come to ask how this can be
brotiol,' about."
"In a very sitnplo way. Withdraw your
armies from our territory, and peace "will
come of itself. AVe do not seek lo subjugate
you. We are not waoine; !Ul ui'ciwvo war.
i except, so far us it is tilfeiisivc-deleii-ivc,
that is, so lar us we arc loiced to invade you
to prevent your invading us. Let us alutie,
und peace w ill come at oi.ee.
"Jitit we cannot let you ulone so long us
you repudiate the I nioii. That is the one
lliing the .Northern people will not sur
render." '1 know. You would deny to us what
you exact for j ourselves the right ol self
government." ".No, Sir," I remarked. We would deny
you no natural right. J tut we think I t.i.ni
essential to peace; and,. Mr. Davis, cor'
two people, w ith the same language, separa
ted by an imaginary line, li e ai. pi ace with
each other f Would not dispute-constantly
ari.-e, ami cause almost constant war be
tween them ("
"L'ndoubtcdly, with this generation.
You have sow n such bitterness at the Sm th;
you have put such an ocean of blood 1 it went
the two feet ions, that 1 despair of seeing
any harmony in my time. Onr l i.ildrui
may forget this war, but we connot."
"1 think the bitterness ou spi ak of, sir."
and the Colonel, "does not really cxi-t. We
meet ami talk here as friends; our soldiers
meet und frateini.'.e with cat li other; and 1
feel sure that if the I'nlon v. ire n store'!, a
more friendly feeling would uri-t: between
us than has existed. The war lias ma le r.s
know nml respect each other Letter than be
fore. This is the view of wry many South
ern men; 1 have had it from many of them,
your leading citizens."
"They are mistaken." replied Mr. Davis.
"They do not understand Soiitlu :n senti
ment. How can we feel any thing but bit
terness tov,aii;.- men who deny t'.s our rights; ;
If you enter my in -use and drive mo out of
it, am 1 not your natural enemy I"
"You put the case too strongly. But we
cannot liirht fur ever; the war must cud nt
! sonic time ; w e must linally agree upon some
thing; can we not agree now, und stop this
frightful carnage i We are bo'Ji Chri-tian
nun, Mr. Davis. Can you, us si Christian
I man, leave untried any means that may lead
I to peaccf"
I "No, I cannot. I desire peace as much as
I you do. I ileplore Jilooii-lit 1 as much sis
yon do; but I feel that not one drop of tl.e
, bloodshed iu this war is en my hands, 1
i can look c.p to my Cod and i ay this. 1
! tiieil all in my power to uvirt t'u'.s war. I
saw it coming, and for (v iive earsl work-
ed night nml day to prevent il. but I coi.'d
'not. Tin: North was mail and blind; it
j would not let us govern ourselves, and so
ti e war came, and now it luus: go on till

"Anil there tire, at let-!, f '.tr i.i.d a half

, a decided sneer.
"We have no w ish to o.u i m lo yon,"
