The Scandalous Report About
Mr. Davis,
We have heretofore given our rea
ders the card of Mr. Davis upon this
subject; also the explanation of the
Louisville Commercial, in which the
slander first appeared.
We now present what the Memphis
Appeal says editorially—it being pub
lished in the city of Mr. Davis’ resi
dence—in reference to the same scan
dalous charge. It is in these words :
Wc both deny and disbelieve the accu
sation made by"the correspondent of the
Louisvillo Commercial. Wo believe it
originated in malice alone, and that it is
ns false ns it is infamous. This sarao in
dividual, wo nro iuformed, visited Mr.
Davis for tho purpose of interviewing
him, and was expelled by Mr. Davis
from his office only tho day or two be
fore. lie was a correspondent of the
New Yolk Herald, writing for so much a
lino in the Louisville Commercial; and
immediately after his expulsion, we liavo
been told, in tho presence of two or more
gentlemen in this city, he said that he
would get even with Mr. Davis He has
essayed to do it by this slander. Ho was
expelled for using publicly the contents
of a letter marked private and confiden
tial, written by Mr. Davis, lie woo too
degraded to know, or too vile to refrain
from on infamy impossible to honorable
men. It is not strange that such a crea
ture should be a little sore nud becomo
malignant from the touch of Mr. D. ’s boot,
nor is it strange that one copablc of vio
lating the confidence among gentlemen
should also be capable of any slander ne
cessary to gratify his revenge against n
man ho had injured. To such n reptile
tho motive was irresistible, and no possi
ble testimony from him is worthy of ga
thought, or could receive attention from
any not tho enemies of Mr. Davis.
“Men of as high character as live in
tho world are to bo found here, and
throughout tho Stale of Missr'sstppi
whoso voucher in behalf of the distin
guished statesman, soldier, and ex-
Prcsidcnt goes back for forty years. Wo
have ourselves had more or loss acquaint
ance with his public and private reputa
tion sinco 1835, and living before 1840
four years in tho same county with him,
never heard a breath to sully his famo
from that day to this, notwithstanding
tho readiness with which, as a Whig an
tagonist and editor, we may then be sup
posed to have welcomed charges against
n political opponent. If a private life
liko that of Jeff. Davis’, known intimate
ly by millions, is not to go unscathed
among men, then we despair of finding a
faultless gentleman.
“The card of Mr. Davis appears in an
other column. He has never been sus
pected, much less accused, of falsehood.
The whole story originated with an igno
rant negro. It was readily gobbled up
by this revengeful correspondent, who
may have cosily instigated tho negro to
the slander, and probably did so. No
respectablo citizen will give it counten
ance; that will bo loft to tho enemies of
Mr. Davis, who are numerous aud pow-
ful enough, aud the enemies of the
Southern peoplo as well.”
Til addition to this, we subjoin what
the Lovisville Ledger says upon the
subject in its issue of the 24th inst.
TUB IBIt. PA VIS SCAN DAP.
Let it rest, henceforth and forever, in
that silent oblivion to which tho just and
generous heart of Col. Kelly has con
signed it. It is all the more gratifying
to the friends of Mr. Davis that the very
spot of its origin should bccomo the
place of its sepulture. The Commercial
first gave it publicity—tho Commercial is
tho first, with a generosity and fairness
unequalled in the annals of Radical jour
nalism, to deal it a prompt aud manly
death-blow.
We commend tho Commercial's article
of yesterday, on this subject, to the care
ful perusal of all good men, of every
shade of political opinion. Alen of all
parties ore too ready to oirculate uu
founded and gratuitous scandals against
the conspicuous men of the other party,
and the < 'ommercial has set an example
which tho editorial profession may be
proud of. Tbo CommerciaTs article docs
credit to onr common humanity. None
hut a bravo, manly, and generous heart
could have conceived it, and to utter it j-imoiliul paste. .

courage which defies all that is little nnd ,.... that paste is very adhesive,

political opponent and tho sly, dastardly, I live.
From tho Gridin Middle Georgtzn,
It bos been our unpleasant duty to re
eord an instuuce of barbarous cruelty that
would aliock the nerves of a Hottentot.
Tho author of this cruelty, is one Pink
Dupree, of Pike county, aud the victims
of lus brutality are bis two children, one
8 years of age, and tbo other 10. Brutes
will not maim tlieir offspring in tho in
human manner to which this fiend re
sorted.
Ho commenced his work of dovilment
by first taking these children from their
grand-parent iu Mississippi, (to whoso
pecial care they had been given by a
dying mother to raiso and educate) with
tho understanding that ho would carry
them to a town near by and maku them
somo presents, and return with them.
But instead of returning with them ho
bronght them to Georgia, where they
liavo been the special recipients of bis
cruelty. It would seem that in bis lieurt
was concentrated the evil of all mankind,
and that bis soul is but an embodyment of
tho evils common only to tho lower order
of the brute creation.
These two boys were brought into our
office. We examined thorn. The tips
of tlieir thumbs aud fingers bad tho ap
pearance of being mashed. They were
blue from bruises, and tho nails of sev
eral had come off. Tho boys on being
asked tho cause of these mashed fingers,
replied that their father bad split a pole
and put their fingers in the split, and
pulled out tho wedge, leaving them in
tho clamp. One of them hail a peculiar
mark on his nose that had tho appear-
anco of having been in a place similar
to that in which the fingers were clamped,
and the little boy did not hesitate to as
sert that his father had placed his nose
in the clamp. The other ono added that
ho had placed his tongue in tho clamp,
and showed it to the crowd. A piece
had been cut out. Tho scar of the clamp
could be readily seen. Besides these
marks of brutality,two great, gaping scars
on the breast of one, and a back, black
with bruises, was shown us, together with
scars and knots on the head.
Bruises, scars, lacerated sores, told a
talc of cruelty too horrible to be repent
ed, and all perpotrated by a devil of a
father upon tbo persons of unprotected,
defenceless, puDy orphan children.
This “fiend in human form,” confessed
that ho had cruelly whipped tho children,
aud that ho could not otherwise control
them. But the children know no such
a werd as “whip.” Stinks, hoe-handles,
the fist, “beats,” but never ‘whips.’ A
broken tooth in tbo mouth of ono of the
children, and an almost broken arm of
tho other, together with tales told by
neighbors, attest moro than words can
express.
The step-motlier of theso children is a
most worthy lady. The children say that
she wns kind to them on all occasions.
The man Dupreo was arrested on a writ
of habeas corpus, by the grand-father of
tbo children, who desired to carry them
to Mississippi, and rather than that the
case of cruelty should bo ventilated, set
tled it. The grand-father left for Missis
sippi with them yesterday. There is no
law wlioso penalty is commensurate with
the crime committed by Dupreo. We re
gret that such a state of cruelty should
appear in our columns to disgust somo of
our readers of tender sensibilities, Such
on 1 rage should not go unpunished.
Law and humanity cry out against it; the
icoplo deplore it, and as an organ, pub-
isliod in tho interest of tbo people, ir<
/enounce Hie outrage.
A Monster of tlic Deep Cnugltt
by a Fishing Party.
Tuesday afternoon, a fishing party,
consisting of Dr. Postley, Messrs. Wm.
Areston, G. Buckingham and Hudson
Williams, accompanied by Bovcral ladies,
while amusing themselves near Wilming
ton Island, taking such specimens of tho
finny tribe as accommodated them with
a nibble, wore suddenly surprised by a
very large inhabitant of tho briny deep,
that seized upon the bait, nud was actu
ally booked on tho small tackle they
were using at the timo for catching small
fish. Finding they had a whale, or some
thing else of huge proportions nnd pro
digious strength and activity, they ilis-
continued tlieir efforts to take nny more,
devoting their skill and attention to the
unknown monster.
They “played” him for a long timo.—
Finding it impossible to adopt harsh
measures, they humored him for tho pur-
pore of gettiug him into shallow water,
which they at last succeeded in doing,
whon they found that they had caught a
huge saw-fish. The anehor-ropo was
thrown over his head and caught be
tween the saws, or teeth, which, being
exceedingly largo and stout, onablcd his
captors to drag him to tho shore on the
beach of the Wilmington Island. The
fish was found to bo twelvo foot iu leDgth.
The head and saw measured four feet,
which were cut off by the party and
brought to tho city. The saw has
24 teeth on each side, varying from
one to two inches in length and from a
half to two inches apart. Tho saw was
taken to tho office of Dr. Postley, on
Congress street, where the Doctor lias
them on exhibition for his friends aqil
otliorH who are disposed to think this a
fishy story.
The saw fish is not generally so large
as this ono was; their ordinary size is
under ten feot, and a fish of from twelve
to fifteen feet is considered a very largo
ono. They reacmblo the shark in appear-
ance, tho saw is a largo cartilaginous con
tinuance of the upper jaw. They, like
tho sword fish, are said to be very de-
atmetive to whales.—Savannah Heirs.
A gentleman asked a clergyman

The following story is told con
cerning tho celebrated Koh-i-noor
captured in India; “ The Koh-i-noor
was obtained in this cheap way: In
1849 that well known diamond be
came part of the spoil of the Anglo-
Indian army, on the conquest and
annexation of the Punjab, and being
then estimated at (1,250,000, there
was great joy over such a prize.
Without consulting the army, Lord
Gough and Charles Napier, chiefs in
command, nudaciously presented the
great diamond to Queen Victoria in
the name of the combatants. It was
not tho General’s right to rob the
army by bestowing the greatest of its
spoils of war upon tho Queen, nor
ought she to have accepted it without
seeing that the soldiers had been paid
for it. From that time the Indian
army have not rcoeived a shilling for
their capture of the Koh-i-noor, and
Victoria has retained tho gem asjicr
own personal property, instead of
placing it among the crown jcwelB
belonging to the British nation.
