A LETTER PROM (1N. LEE. Ro WHites to the Confederate Pre+ident, Favoring a Union with the Peaoe Party of the North. The following letter purporthgg to. have been written by Gen. Robert E. Leo to the Ion. Jefiorson Davis, and dated "IIcadquartes Army of Northern Virginia, June 10 1893," is published In the New York 'IIcrald of Suiday : "Mr. Presidcent: I beg leave to bring to your attention a subject with reference to which I have thought thflt the course pursued by writers and speakers among us has had a tendoncy to interfere with our success. I refer to the manner in which the demonstra tiot .of a desire for -peace at the North hOa been received in our country. "I think that there can be no doubt that journaltsis and others at the South, to whom the Northern people naturally look for a reflection of our opinions, have met these indications in such wise as to weaken the. hands of the advocates of a pacific policy on the partlof the Federal govermnint and give much encouragemnent. to those who urge a continuance of the war". "lRecent political movements In the Ulited States and the comments of in lluential newspapers upon them have air.teted my at tention lar'ticularIly to this subjecot,, which I deom, not unl .,worthy of the consideration ot' your 'xcellcicy n1or inl>ppropriald to pe aid verted to me inl view of its connection with the sitnation of military afl'airs. .''Conceding to our enemies the supe riority claimed by them in iiumbers, -reSonrces and all the means and ap phiamees for carrying on the war, we have no right to look for exemption f'roim the military conse(iuelces of the vigorous use of these advantages, ex cept, by such deliverance as the mercy of leavein may accor(d to the courage of our soldiers, thejustice of our cause anid the coistaicy and prayrl"s of our people. While iiinaking the most we cai of' the means of resislatice we possess and gratefully accepting the measure of success with which Go( has blessed our efrorts as an carniest. of iis approval ia1 lavor, it is ineverthe less the part of Visd'mn to carefully mieasure an1id huhaim our slrengtIi, and not to expect from it more than in the ordinary course of aflairs, it is caplable of accolmplishing. We should not, therefhre, conceal troin onrselves that our 'esources in imen are coln stalhtly diml) inishiig, anid the dispiro porftionl in this respect betwecen 1s and our enemies, if they contiledt ini tliir eflorts to subjngate us, steadily aui huenting. The (ecrease of the aggre gate in this army, as disclosed by the roturns, affbrds anm illustration of the fact. Its eflectiv"e s0,r1ength varies tromt time to time, but th'e fidling oil' inl its aggregate showt's thlit its ranks are growing weaker and that its losses ame.not. supplied by recr-uits. 4"Unlder' t.heCSC cir1eillls'tanlces wve should neglect, no honorable tmeans of dividing and weakening our eneies, that they uay 1cel sonic of the ditlicul ties experienced by oinselves.

Though retired from Ii the field lie was proinoted to the ran1k I of euitetuant-colonel and assigned to t light duty ini Et'-" rear. While thus v einploved lie was called upon by the I people of Spartanburg to represent themn in the State Legislature, which lie did to their entire satistaction. At the close of the war Mr. Evins re.peced his law olliec in the town of Spart:uinurg, aid devoted hiinself closely and sutccessfll Iv to his profes sion thntil 187(, when he was called to a high eri' sphere of honor and useful ness. Yle entered the Forty-fiflth Con gress as the lcpresentative of the Fourth Congressional district of South Caroliin, and served in that capacity, with thithfulness to his itninediate cosi stituents and fidelit.y to the whole couniry, tut1il stricken dowii by dis case.
