"Shoot Ilfni on the Spot,*' Famous Order During: the "War.
New York, April 24.
From the Now York Tribune. To live nearly eighty one years and be in the public »ervice forty year# has fallen to the lot of tew men in American history. There have at times been t^ose whose woik was more prominent, whose names were sounded further and whose fame will live longer than John A. Dix'a but it would not be eaiv to find men wh06e public careers covered a longer period of time or whose work was done more faithfully and effectually than his. Born ab he was before the last century closed, he entered into the people's service ere he was fifteen years ot age, and among the public places he filled were United States Senator, Secretary of the Treasury, Minister of France and Governor ot New York. He retained his vigor of mind and body until his last days, and among the rccent events of his life was the acceptance of a nomination for Mayor of this city at the hands of the Republican party. To any American wishing to study the progress of politics in hi, own county during the past fifty years this career will furnish much of interest.
The father of General Dix was a soldier of the Revolution, and Ue afterward commanded in the War oi 1812,' He was an ardent patriot and a great admirer of John Adams, after whom he named the crnld that was born to him on July 24, I'/yS, in the Town of Boscawen, N. B. *vt an early age young John A. Dix was sent to the acaaemy at Salisbury and alter ward to that at Exeter, where he was under the care of the well-known Dr. Abbot. In 1811, when only thirteen rears of age, he entered a college at Montieal which was under the direction of the fathers ot the Sulpician Order. He there pursued his studies diligently ur.til the breaking out ot the hostilities with great Britain, when he found itnecessar\ to return home. His father was placed in command at Baltimore, and after a short stay at Boston the son was appointed a cadet in the United States Annv and joined his father'h command. His duties were those of an assistant clerk, and his leisure hours he Devoted to study in St. Mary's College. He had already attained a mark.-d proficiency in the Soanish, Greek and Latin languages. A.t St. Mary's Incompleted his school days, but he did not whoi'V give up his studies afterward, for his fondness for them was always keen. In history, literature and languages he found much employment in later years. He made a translation of the "Dies Ine," which many Latin scholars consider the best of the many that have been made.— Among his schoolfellows who were afterwards distinguished were Jared Sparks, John G. Paltrey and the Peabodys.
In March, 1613, the Secretary of War John Armstrong, of New York, author of the celebrated "Newburg Letters,1', and who had just assumed the office under an appointment from President Madison, offered young Dix without solicitation the choice of a scholarship at West Point or an ensigncy in the army. He chose the latter, and entered the 14th Infantry, of which his father was lieutenant* coloriel,and immediately went with him to Sackett's Harbor. He was now the youngest officer in the army. In 1S13 he was appointed an adjutant in an independent battalion, with which he descended the St. Lawrence river and shared with his comrades in the perils and disasters of that unsuccessful expedition. In the same year his father died, leaving eight other children and the mother living. Adjutant Dix obtained a leave of absence trom his post and devoted his time to the settlement of the estate, which had become embarrassed during the lather's absence. Returning afterward to military dvtv, lie was tiansferred to the corps of artillery •under Colonel Waibach, and remained vith him several years. In 1819 he was attached as an aide to the staff of General Brown, and gave his leisure time to the study of law. neral Brown was then stationed at Washington, and young Dix soon acquired distinction at the Capital for his classical knowledge and literary entertainments. While Calhoun was a candidate lor the Presidency, he in common with most men in the Armv, was his zealous tiiend and supporter. Not long alter the election of Mr. Adams he married the daughter of a wealthy and prominent ctizcn of
New York, and came to the city to reside. Soon after this he gave his support lo the party then in power, and continued ever alter to follow its fortunes until the breaking out of the War of the Rebellion. In 1S25 his health becoming impaired, be sought recovery in a visit to Cuba uttd Europe.

When, in the Republican stale convention of 1872, much difficulty was found in the selection of a candidate for governor, Thurlow Weed, then an old man rtearing his eightieth year, opportunely Appeared in the lobbies with the name ot General Dix, and before the conyention adjourned he was nominated.
AN EARLY ANTI-SLAVERY. The anti-slavery sentiments of John A* Dix: which afterward made him a prominent member of the Republican party, the recipient of distinguished honors at its hands, and a leading spirit in the organization of public sentiment in support of the war for the Union, had been thus earlv manifested. But in the summer ot 1S4S they took on a more definite form. The Texas bill attained, or was followed "by the success of both of its purposes. Mr. Clay was defeated in the election by James K. Polk, who had defeated Mr. Van Buren in the convention This was a decided victory for the Southerr element of the Democracv, bat was tii&?>».*(eful io the Van Buren party,whese sympathies wtie wholly opposed to the exu Vision of Savory. In the convention *ol ic+S thev were beaten again. Mureovt's th? anti-slavery Whigs were rot j^Ui ,ied witn the nomination of Genera.'
Taylor, and these two Free-soil elements met in convention at Utica and nominated Mr. Van Buren for President, and Charles Francis Adams for Vice-Presi-dent. ,A state convention then assembled aPBuffalo and nominated Mr. DJx for Governor, with Seth M. Gates, an abolitionist, for Lieutenant Governor. The National platform declared that "Congress has no more right to make a slave than to make a king." Mr. Dix was defeated, the Whig candidate, Hamilton Fish, being elected, although the Legislature had been Democratic at its last session. Mr. Dix failed of a reelection owing to divisions in the party.
Defeated now for Governor, and his friends out of office, he retired from the public life until the campaign of 1852, when he warmly supported the nomination of Franklin Pierce. He»was offered the position of Secretary of State, but his Free Soil sentiments caused Southern men of the Mason and Slideil school to object to the nomination, and Mr. Dix declined in favor of Governor Marcy. He was afterward tendered the mission to France, but declined that also. In 185he was made Assistant Treasurer of the United States at New York, but on th3 appointment of John F. Mason to the French Embassy he resigned and withe drew from politics, giving his time to the law until 1S60, when President Buchanan appointed him Postmaster at New York. In the latter part of i860, Howell Cobb, of Georgia, resigned the office Secretary of the Treasury. The finan of the government were then in a iaso deplorable condition. It was found impossible to do anything without the aid of capitalists in New York. In a few weeks a delegation hastened to Washington fiom this city and insisted with President Buchanan that the Treasury Department must be placed in the hands of one in whom they had confidence,land avowed that they would not be satisfied unless the appointment fell upon Mr. Dix. In the following Jannary Mr. Dix assumed the duties of the office. Not long after this Major Aderson made his famous movement from Fort Moultrie to Fort Sumter, which so excited the indignation of Secretary Floyd that he threatened to resign if Anderson was not ordered back. Thereupon Mr. Dix at once told the President that the recall of Major Anderson would be a signal for the immediate resignation of himself and Messrs. Stanton and Holt, also members of the cabinet. This decided the wavering executive, and Mr. Floyd left the government.
"SHOOT HIM OX THE SPOT." New Orleans was at that time in virtual possession of the Secession party. Two revenue cutters, the Caro and the McClelland, which were there, the new Secretary ordered to New York. The special agent whom he had sent to bring them arrived at New Orleans too late. The captain of the McClelland, after consulting with the collector of that port, refused to obey, and the other cutter was already in possession of the s'.ate authorities of Alabama. Secretary Dix thereupon telegraphed his agent to arrest the captain, and in ca«e he offered any resistance to treat him as a mutineer, closing his dispatch with the memorable words: "If any one attempts to haul down the American flag, shoot him on the spot." (The original of this famous order may be seen at the Loan Exhibition, furnished by Mr. L. A. Burnett.—[ED. GAZETTE.)
A few years ago General Dix related to a reporter of one of the New York papers the circumstances which attended the sending of this famous order. The authorities in Washington had looked quietly on at the seizure of forts, a/senals and revenue cutters without a word of remon&trancs, and "I confess," he said, "that my blood boiled." When he received word from his agent that the captain of the McClelland refused positively in writing to obey his orders, he went from the White House, where he was staying temporarily, lo
hi6
room in
the Treasury Building, sat down, and "obeying the impulse of the moment," wrote the dispatch. When he had finished it he thought of taking it Over to the President for approval, but "remembering his caution and prudence, especially his paramount desire that if there must be blood
6hed
the North should not
spill the first drop, I concluded to act at once and on my own responsibility." The letter was was given to a clerk who copied it and went with it directly to the telegraph office. Receiving no reply from the agent, Mr. Dix feared his dispatch had been intercepted, and two or three

word to Jones
to have Breshwood (the captain) arrested, to put Caldwell in command, and if anyone attempted to haul down the American flag to shoot him on the spot." The President started, and said, somewhat sternly, with an air of incredulity: "Did you write that?" "No I telegraphed it," was the reply. The President never alluded to the matter again, although Mr. Dix saw him almost constantly until the
5th
of March follow
ing. About a week afterward Louisiana seceded. Captain Breshwood, saying that he acted under the orders of the Legislature, had meanwhile transferred the revenue cutter to the care of that body, and when the ordinance of seces sion passed, he hoisted the flag of Louisi ana in place of the Stars and Stripes. "An ordinary seaman," continued Mr. Dix in the interview, "on board the cutter saw where the American flag was secreted after it had been taken down, and when General Butler reached New Orleans the spirited young fellow hastened to the cutter, took the flag from its place of concealment and gave it to the General, who sent it to me. It is now in my possession. Upon my recommendation the patriotic seaman was appointed a Lieutenant in the Revenue Service where he did gallant work throughout the war. He died a short time ago. The order to Jones, very unexpectedly to me, leaked out through the persons who had intercepted it, and was soon the subject of remark in Washington, where it was accorded a variety of receptions. One day at dinner in the White House, a large number of guests ing present, a niece of the President's turned tudJenlv to me with the question, 'Did y» issue hit order?' She was, I believe, connect49 i"'"¥
1
ed by marriage with a prominent Southern family. At any rate, her sympathies were strongly with the South, and were ardent in the extreme. I answered her very quietly that I did. She straightened herself, and with a bearing of queenly dignity and authority, not devoid of a certain spice of sarcasm, said: 'What.authority had you for doing it?' 'Oh, Madasne,' I replied, 'it was a sentiment*' The President made no remark."
General Dix was nominated for United States Senator in 1S74, but the Legislature being Democratic it was only as a compliment. He took an active part ir« the campaign of 1S76, doing very effective work in the organization of "Boys in Blue."
In the last years of his life his health was well preserved and the absorbing interest he always took in politics did not appreciably diminish with the approach of old age and its infirmities. General Dix was the author of several books, among them "Resourcs of the City ot New York,'' (1S27), "Decisions of the Superintendent of Common Schools of New York and Laws Relating to Common Schools" (1837), "A Winter in Madeira" (1851), "A Summer in Spain and France" (1S55 and two volumes of "Speeches."" In person he was of medium height, with a closely-built, though not robust, frame. His bearing on military occasions was commanding and soldierly in an eminent degree. Late in life his hair became white, and this added much to the distinguished air he wore when on horseback in military dress. He was universally esteemed for his patriotism, which was perhaps the sturdiest of his many virtues, and his eminent services to the country both in peace and war have se cured for his name a grateful and lasting remembrance.
