Southern Historical Society Papers, Volume 7. (ed. Reverend J. William Jones), An alleged proclamation of President Lincoln. (search)
the Union a matter of impossibility and war an inevitable necessity. While these negotiations were pending, however, a proclamation had been prepared recognizing the fact of the secession of certain States, and virtually acknowledging their independence, surrendering to them stated powers of the General Government over property and places within their limits, and guaranteeing them peaceable possession of the same on conditions specified. This proclamation had the sanction of Mr. Wade, of Ohio, and was in accordance with Mr. Greeley's frequently expressed views. With the appearance of the proclamation was to be an editorial in the Washington and New York papers sustaining the action of the administration. This was also prepared and held ready for use when the occasion demanded it. But the action at Fort Sumter changed all this, and a proclamation was issued instead for 75,000 men for three months to suppress rebellion; and war was thus accepted by an unwilling Government and peop

utant S. H. M. Byers, in a pamphlet entitled What I Saw in Dixie; or, Sixteen Months in Rebel Prison, says: The boys, too, were spreading the conflagration by firing the city in a hundred places. The boys seem to have done that night exactly as General Sherman told General Halleck they generally did, that is, do their work up pretty well; for no one should complain of a hundred separate applications of the incendiary torch as not being pretty well in its way. Seventh. Mr. Whitelaw Reid's Ohio in the war says of this destruction of Columbia: It was the most monstrous barbarity of the barbarous march. This opinion bears upon the character of the act, not upon the question of who did it. Eighth. Before the Mixed Claims Commission scores of witnesses testified to the fact that the soldiers of Sherman's army set fire to the city in hundreds of places; that they carried about torches, kerosene or petroleum balls, and buckets of the inflammable fluid, lighting fires wherever the win

tual — a consummation wished by all save those wretched traders in strife, who, having labored painfully to induce the conflict, surpassed even those toils in their successful efforts to shirk its perils while it lasted and prolong its hates after it is dead — those patriots by proxy, who put the profits of their country's agony in their own pockets, and encountered its perils by a substitute. For myself I find reconciliation easy with him who says, I answered the summons of Massachusetts or Ohio, for I answered the summons of Virginia, and hers alone. Each year this platform of reconciliation will more and more assert itself, as each year the Government will more and more conform to its original conceptions. Even now, with constantly increasing courage and frequency,. we hear the voice of protest against the fatal tendencies of the warengendered theories of American republicanism; and here, in the presence of these heroic dead, I salute every such warning note as a tribute of p
