 "THE CONFIDENTIAL LETTER. "-After all the statements and retractions about the production of General Jacksons confidential letter before the cab net in July l918 Mir Monroes letters, published by MT Calhoun, go far to confirm MT Crawford's state ment

 In the conclusion of Mir Monroes letter to Gene ral Jackson dated Dec. 2lst, 1els [printed in 1s3O by mistake, in the pamphlet] MT Monroe thus speaks of this confidential letter:

 "Your letter of January G. was received while was seriously indisposed. Observing that it was from you, handed 1t to MT Calhoun to read, after reading one or two lines only myself. The order to you to take command in that quarter, had before then been issued. He remarked, after perusing the letter, that it was confidential one, relating to Flo rida, which must answer asked him if he had forwarded to you the orders of General Gaines on that subject. He replied that he had. Your letter to me- with many others from friends, was put aside in consequence of the great pressure on me at the time, and never recuned to, until after my return from Loudoun on the receipt of yours by MT Hambly and then on the suggestion cf Mr Calhoun" | Now, when did Mir Monroe return from Loudoun and when was the letter by Mir Hambly receivedi MT Calhoun has given us the evidence to show.

 In one of his notes he tells us, that "the first (ca bne meeting on that subject took place on the 18th and l6th of July, 1618 MT Monroe having returned on the 14th, from his residence in Loudoun."
