The Daily Dispatch: October 11, 1864., [Electronic resource], Vice President Stephens's views upon peace movements. (search)
e President Stephens's views upon peace movements. The following letter from Vice President Stephens, giving his views upon "peace movements," was written in answer to a letter addressed to him by several gentlemen in the interior of the State of Georgia: Crawfordville, Ga., September 22, 1864. gentlemen: you will please excuse me for not answering your letter of the 14th instant sooner. I have been absent nearly a week on a visit to my brother in Sparta, who has been quite outg to a peaceful solution of the present strife. The war, on our part, is fairly and entirely defensive in its character. How long it will continue to be thus wickedly and mercilessly waged against us, depends upon the people of the North. Georgia, our own State, to whom we owe allegiance, has, with great unanimity, proclaimed the principles upon which a just and permanent peace ought to be sought and obtained. The Congress of the Confederate States has followed with an endorsement of th
Confederate States district Court. The October term of Judge Halyburton's court commenced yesterday. The following cases were taken up: Morgan J. Wilson and his surely were each recognized in the sum of five thousand dollars for the appearance of the former at the November term to answer an indictment for misdemeanor. James H. Pollard's petition for a writ of habeas corpus was continued till today. H. D. Stephens was discharged from service, under a habeas corpus petition, on account of his being a justice of the peace of Georgia. The court afterwards adjourned till eleven o'clock this morning.

unds, such horrors of genuine and bloody war, would resemble the senseless gibberish of a congress of demented old women. Mr. Stephens is, we consider, greatly betrayed in his idea that the Northern peace party is born and grown of the peace propositions of the South, to which he alludes. He is, moreover, mistaken as to the strength of that party. The peace party of the North is the bantling of our brave armies, and his growth is impeded by our partial reverses. A victory here and in Georgia will make him grow like the green gourd after a refreshing shower; but without triumphs in the South, Mr. Stephens's song of peace is like the feeble strains of the lute amidst the northeast gale at sea. President Davis, in his speech at Montgomery, without having Mr. Stephens's letter in view, (for it had not been published,) made the following pertinent remark, which is about all that need be said on the subject: "Mr. Davis spoke of the horrors of war and the sufferings of the

The Federal have taken a town in a State hitherto inaccessible to their armies, and can boast of an army quartered in Georgia. One of the great objects of the campaign in Georgia, as well as in Virginia, was the destruction of the Confederate army, and that has not been attained. General Hood remains in command of a force, which, though it is not a match for Sherman'sost an army, nor any considerable quantity of munitions or stores.
