On sombre wings the aulturetried bis flight; The dove scarce heard his sighing mite's com plaint; And, like a star slow drown!ag In tho light. The village church vane seemed to pale and faint. Tho sentinel cock upon the hill-aide crew— Crew thrice —and all was stiller than before; Silent, till some replying warden blow Ilia alien horn, and then was heard no more. Where erst the Jay, within Uw elm’s tall crest, ode garrulous ‘ “ * ~ young;. - . . And where the oriole hang her swaying nest, By every light wind like a censer swung; Where sang the noisy martins of tho eves, The busy swaHows circling ever near— Foreboding, os the rustic mind believes. An early harvest and a plenteous year; Where every bird that waked Iho vernal feast. Shook the sweet slumber from its wings al a To worn the reaper of the rosy east; All now was sunless, empty and forlorm Alone, from out the stubble, piped tho quail; And croaked the crow through all the dreary gloom; Alone, the pheasant, drumming in the vale.

' Wa refer .to the recent criticism of the military aad political acts of Jefferson Davis by Brig. Gen. Jordan, late of the Confederate aervlce. The simple reference to the circumstances of the party assailed is sufficient to secure a unanimous condemnation of the spirit, intent and. purpose of such nn ill-timed, unmanly and ungenerous publi cation. *« The truly brave Are generous Ur the fall en." 3Sr. Davis’ Is now a State prisoner, closely imprisoned; under an indictment for the highest crime known to the law. He is denied intercourse with the world and his friends—not even his •cl hare .been admitted to him. Neither voice nor ped are allowed him (o justify or vindiekte his acts. He awaits his trial,- aad now that the passions ex acted by the war begin to moderate, and the native love of justice pad the generosity of American char- ir have resumed their sway over the minds of people, there is every reason to believe that his trial will be a just, fair and impartial one. His* friends hare little cause to complain, nor do they eomplaia of the course pursued towards him by the Federal authorities—bearing 1a mind the «stand point from which they must regard his acts. It was, after all. ths most dignified, manly, -courageous course an his part, thus to confront the responsible Ry aad challenge ths judgment of the country and the world upon his acts. We confess that Jefferson Davis, vindicating and defending his acts before ths courts and the law, whose msjtaty he was charged with violating; has higher claims upon our respect than he would have as a fugitive in foreign lands, depending on the elemosynary aid and sympathy of strangers; aad furnishing the ehampions of mon archy aad despotism with an argument and testimo ny, as pot eat against the moderation, the clemency .aad justice of a Republic, as the fate of Kossuth, of Matzini and. Garibaldi has supplied against the Governments of the Old World. We regard it as a new proof the sincerity of his acts and convictions, as well as ef his great confidence in the people and Government of the United States, that Mr. .Davis should act avail himself of the means and foeilities for escape which here at his command. Besides his strong sectional attsehnfents, which for a time overcame and subordinated his once strong attach- •seat te the old Union, there existed^he old feeling ‘ ‘ ’ luce in, the justice, the of respect for, and confidence magnanimity and the greatness of that Republic for which be had ahed his blood, and to which he had devoted so many years of earnest, sincere sAd patrj spiders moved their thin shrouds nixht bv °** c •® # ®*ion and cordial and efficient support.— night, * 1 With the downfall of the Confederacy, his old first lpve cropped out and manifested its existence and strength-by an act which, in so energetic and deci ded a character, can have no more reasonable and satisfactory solution than that we have indicated— his profound confidence in the ultimate justice of i fair, just i ing of all relevant testimony, is an obligatifta ef aU m. .jaby Gen. j In the publication which has 'provoked the: • useful in guidingfstare historians, and in alder 'these cntcl.prnuy, buncombe publications, is than set off by the positive evils of perverting Pleading the judgments and opinions of the !e, and exciting many unworthy an«l unjust The South Carolina ultras never gave Mr. Davis their confidence. .Their original distrust grew and increased with every month of his administration. His every aetVss construed into some * 4 confirma tion strong as proof from holy writ ” of his * latent lovo of tho old Union. Even Ms original friends dt that school, Yanoey and Wigfall; eventually became hostile tq him. Whenever displeased by any of his official acts,' his refusal tb adopt their plans of con ducting the war, or to appoint some'ot their fkvor- • ilea to high position, they always recurred to his ^original unsoundness on the sectional .question, and hia dubious devotion to the eaufo of anriadqpendeak South. Mr. Davis, it js well knowtC Li not a docile or managable man. - He has not hut- temper, his suspicions or his prejudices under good control.— The military temper and habit still cling to him*— He is not the men to eke out (he lion’s skin with the There is'a little too moeh of the Hotspur in his disposition to brook any kind of dietaries, and the ultras were not kept long waiting for the open issue they courted. He did not shrink from thb contest, but calling to his support the great masses of the South, he succeeded in placing himself in a position impregnalle to all the* assaults of politi cians, and ev^n of complaining, generals. No man was ever more unpopular with the politicians thaw Jefferson Davis during kis whole administration.— He made ne effort to please or eondlllate theta,; bot they dared not Oppose, and hesitated long even 10 censure or differ with him, But his .people—the people for whose fate he exhibited in the crisis of his misfortunes such intense- and tearfu^sorrow- forgetting hia own perils and trials, always stood by him and. encouraged and sustained him. It was vain to tell them that htf bad erred grievously in this .and that: that ho had made this and that bad appointment—that he was prejudiced against this general and exhibited an undue partiality and fa vor for the other; that be interfered in plans of campaigns and strategies which, after others .had failed, it was easy gx argue, would certainly hare succeeded. Thousands of unappreciated Madbo- roughs, Wellingtons and Napoleons clamored over the inveterate prejudice which overlooked their great merits. Defeated generals were never in want of an excuse for their lU-luek, when It .was so eqsy - to remind the world of the constant intermeddling of Davis with the conduct of the war aad tho gross incouipctency of his Secretary of Was; Every dis aster could be distinctly traced to-these sources. - If big guns could not be furnished to every small fort; if ammunition.were deficient at any point; if wheal transpertation were not on hand at Bull Ron; If a laj-ge and adequate force were not concentrated at every point assailed, it was ihe fault and imbecility of|Jeff. Davis. The generals and officers who achieved successes were ths only ones who never complained. Those who failed, not only attributed their failure to the imbecility or interference to the President, but regarded the success of those who triumphed as due to his gross partiality and favor. But, in spite of all this detraction; clamor and de- the people of the Uuited States, the.sincere convic tion of kb own honesty, and his unconquerable pre ference for tho flag under which he bad fought and rved over that of any other nation. Wo are sustained in thif interpretation of conduct, which has seemed so strange to many persons, by the allegations, the only just ones we could discov er, of Gen. Jordan’s review x»f tho character and conduct of Mr. Davis. It is truly enough said by thb write*, as if to.east'suspicioh upon Mr. Davis’s sincerity and confirm the opinions oT his incapacity as a leader and ehief, that the late Confederate Pre sident was never regarded with confidence by the acknowledged leader* of the ultra South party. His polities in Mississippi were constantly complained of as too sttongly spiced with Unionism; but a few months before, the commencement of secession move ment no greater offe.noq could be offered to him than to impute disunion;purposes to him.-We have known him on the stump to invite a mortal personal issue with any man who questioned his <fo T otioa to the Union. Tho lots Gen. Quitman, a man of Northern birth aad education, and an enthusiast for secession, declared in public and private that Mbsissippi would never secede from the Union as'long as Jef- feraon Davb lived; and in the political contest of IfcSO, when Gen. Qnltmaa wae nominated for Gov- of Mississippi, Mr. Davis and his friends sue i in expunging from the platform certain res the thread was snapped—her head was riuUona in ° r teet **j on ia certain events; bowed; * whereupon Gen. Quitman declined the candidature, Life dropped the distaff through her hands sereuo;. , Mp * 4. and* in the contest which fob And loving neighbors smoothed her eareful shroud, between him and Gen.

Davis had made JUSTICB TO *t:t/ 1* ?brit for Ms health ty New England, where he flbtorieal and military criticism of the nets and characters of those who'performed conspicuous parts in the recent war, are at present premature, unwise and too apt to be uqjost* .Some months, if not embarrassed, and fib years, must ebpse before Hie events, the eircum- capital Ofhb so-called Yankee predilections''and stmsoM, motives and reasons which controlled and Federal tendencies.

One-half of *11 the colored soldiers in uniform . in East Tennessee have no respect for that uniforms and do not appreciate tts dignity aad importance.— Twp of them in full uniform some time since, upon a narrow sidewalk in this city, knocked tho venter of this article in the gutter, throwing him upoq.his hands and knees. He was trying to get out of the way, and they saw it, but being feeble, and leaning upon a staff, be moved too slowly for th«h' idea^ikf progress.
