First canto ftiiior Geneml Miles holding tlm arm ot Sfr. Davis, who was dressed in a suit °fP llil >Cou- fedcraic gray, with a gray slouched hat—always thin, amr now looking much wasted uud very haggard. Immediately after these canto Colonel Pritchard accompanying Mr. Clay, witha guard of soldiers in ‘heir rear. Thus they passed through tiles of men in blue from the i.nginoor’s Landing to the Water Battery Postern; and on arriving at the casemate which had been fitted up into cells for their incarceraUon. Mr. Davis wiia shown into casemate No. 2 and Clay into Na 4, guards of soldiers being stationed In the cells numberctl one, three nml five, upon each side of them. They entered; the heavy doors clanged behind them, and in that clang was rung tho final knell of the terrible, hut now ex tinct rebellion. . i- . Being ushered into his inner cell by Geneml Miles, nml the two doors leading thereinto from the guard-room being fastened, Mr. Duvis, ufter surveying tlie promises for some moments, and looking out through the embrasure with such thoughts passing over his lined and oxpres- sire face ns mny be imagined, suddenly seat ed himself in a chair, placing both bauds on bis knees, and asked ono of tlm soldiers pacing up uud down within ills cell this significant ques tion : "Which way docs tlie embrasure face?" The soldier was silent. Mr. Davis, raising his voice a littlo, repeated the inquiry. But again dead silence, or only tlie measured footfalls of tlie two pacing sentries within, and the fainter echoes of the lour- without. Addressing the other soldier, ns if tlm first had been deaf and lmd not beard him, tlm prisluor again repeated bis inquiry. But tho second soldier remained silent as tlm first, a slight twitching of ids eyes only fnti- maling that lie hud heard tlm question, lmt was forbidden to speak. “Well," said Mr. Davis, throwing hlel ami breaking into a bitter laugh, “I wish could have been taught your discipline!' 1 and then, rising from his elinir, ho commenced puc iug hack and forth before tlie embrasure, now looking at tlie silcut sentry across tho moat, and anon at the two silently pucing soldiers who were Ills companions in the casement. liissolu reading mailer, a Bible and Prayer- Book, his only companions those two silent guards, Ids only food the ordinary rations of bread mil beef served'ouf to the soldiers of tlie garrison—thus passed the first day and night of the cx-Presidcnt’s confinement. SEWARD AND STANTON DISGRACE AMERICA—AH INVALID IN IRONS. On tlie morning of tlie 2!id of Mny, a yet bit terer trial was in store for tlie proud spirit—u trial severer, probably, than has ever in modern times been inllictcd upon any one wlio lmd enjoyed such eminence. Thu morning Jefferson Dari* im* thaekled. It was while all the swarming cantjH of tlie ar mies of the Potomac, of Tennessee and Geor gia—over two hundred thousand bronzed nml i wroled veterans—were preparing for the grand review of tho next morning, in which, passing la endless succession before the. mansion of tlie President, the conquering military power of tlie nation, which was to lay down its arms at tlm feet of Civil Authority, that tlie following scene was mauled at Fortress Monroe; Captain Jerome E. Tillow, of the Third Penn sylvania Artillery, entered the prisoner's ceil, fol lowed hv tlie blacksmith of tlm fort and his as sistant, tlie latter carrying in his hands some heavy and Imrsldy-raltllng shackles. As they entered, Mr. Davis was reclining on Ilia bed, fe verish and weary after a sleepless night, the food placed near to him tlie preceding day still lying untouclied on its tin plate near ills bedside. “Well!" said Mr. Davis, os they entered, slightly raising Ids head. " I have au unpleasant duty to perform, sir," said Captain Tillow; and us he spoke the senior blacksmith took the shackles from Ills assistant. Davis leujiod instantly from his recumbent at titude, a tiii-li passing over his face fora mo ment, and then his eountenaneo growing livid and rigid as death. lie gasped for breath, clutching ills throat with the thin lingers ol his right liuuil, and limn re covering hlmscll slowly, while his wasted figure towered up to its full fright—now appearing to swell with Indignation, anil then to shrink with terror, as lie glanced from the captain’s fuco to lie shackles—lie said slowly, and with a labor ing chest: “My (iod! You cannot have been Bent to iron me: ‘‘Such are my orders, sir," replied the officer, beckoning the blacksmith to approach, who stepped forward, unlocking the padlock and pre paring the fetters to do their office.

Ou 'the 'morning of'May 84th,-1 was sent for about hull-past eight 6*<Slo<5ki' by. Miripif' Gdlierat Miles';. was told that State-prisoner Davis com plained of being ill, and that! had been assigned' as his medical attendant. Calling upon the prisoner—the first time I lmd ever seen him.closely—he preaented,a yyry mis erable rind rifflfctlng asprict. * Stretched'upon^ hfs pallet nnd vory niudi emaciated, Mr. Duvis aj>- penred a mere fascine of raw and tremulous nerves—iris eyes restless arid fevered, his head —|rom siclo to aide for a cool s|>oton the pillow, and his case clearly One in which intense cerebral excitement was the first thing needing attention. He was mttreuiely dc- siKindcnt, his pulse fhil and at ninety, tonguo thickly canted, extremities cold, and Iris head troubled with a long-established neuralgic disor der. Complained of his thin camp mnttress nnd pillow slutted with lmlr, adding, that ho was so emaciated that Iris skin chafed easily against the slats; und, ns these complaints were well found ed, I ordered an additional hospital mattress and softer pillow, for which lie thanked mo cour teously. “ But I four," he said, as, having prescribed, I was about taking my leave, accompanied by Captain Evans, Third Pennsylvania Artllleiy, who was officer of tlie day, " I fear, Doctor, you will have a troublesome and unsatisfactory pn- rtcut. One whoso case can reflect on you littlo credit. There arc circumstances at work outsida yournrtto counteract your art; nnd l suppose there must be a conflict between your reelings ns n soldier of tlie Union, and your mules as a heal er of the sick.” This last was said with a faint smile, and I tried to cheer him, assuring him; If ho Would on ly keep qulut and endeavor to cel sonic sleep, .wtitcn my prescription wns mainly addressed lo obtain, that ho would be well in a few days. For the rest, of course a physician coiild have no focllngs nor recognize uny duties but towards Iris patient. Mr. Davis turned to the officer of the day, nnd demunded whether lie had been shackled liy spe cial order of the Secretary of War, or whether General Miles had considered Iris violent course essential to his safe keeping f The Citptuln re plied that lie kuew nothing of tlm matter; so our first interview ended. On quitting Mr. Davis, I at once wrote to Ma jor Church, Assistant Adjutant General, advising that the prisoner he allowed tobacco—to tlie wutu ot which, after a lifetime of use, lib bad referred ns one of tlie prohnhle causes of his Illness— though not complniiringly, nor with nny request Hint It lie given. Tills rccommcndntinn wus up- •roved in the course of tlie day, uud on calling it the evening brought tobacco with me, nnd Mr. Davis tilled iris pine, which was tlie sole article he had carried with film ftom the Clyde, except tlie clothes he then wore. “Tills is a noble medicine," he snld, with some thing as near a amlle os was possible for hUlmg- furu uud shrunken features. "1 hardly expected t; did nut ask for it; though the deprivation lias been severe. During my conflocracnt here I shall ask lor nothing.” lie wus now much calmer, feverish symptoms steadily decreasing, pulse already down to sev enty-five, his brain less excitable, and his mind becoming more resigned to his condition. Ho complained that tlie footfalls of tlie two.sentries within his chamber made it difficult for him to col lect his thoughts, but added clieerfolly Hint, with this—touching fils pipe—he hoped to become tranquil. Tills pipe, by tlie way, wns a large nnd hum!- somo one, made of meerschaum, wills an umber mouthpiece, showing by its color that It hiul seen “uctive service" for some time—as indeed wns tlm case, having been his companion during the stormiest years of bis late titular Presidency. It is now in tho writer’s possession, having been {Ivon to him by Mr. Davis, and its, acceptance insisted upon us tlie only thing lie had left to oiler.
