When we go into mourning, instead of wiping our eyes over the fallei. fortunes of Jeff Davis, w« ‘shall turn our attention to the thousands of young mo* lio sacrificed on tho alttir of his unholy ambitipn. There wo can truly mourn, but for Davis we have not a tear to shod.— Griffin ( Qa .) American (Alton. Tb© above precious morgeau is from the Amtriean Cnion- —a sheet published in the State of Georgia! We can scarcely believo that any man in his sound sensos would utter sueh sentiments. Much less can wo believe that a Georgian—“ Unionist” though he may have been even through tho war— can bo the author of them. Wo ask our selves, “can such things be and overcome us like a Summer's dream?” Well does the editor of that delcotable Southern jour nal know, that Ex-President Davis was but tho servant of the people—one of those who joined the cause of the South after the right of secession had been exercised; and eailed to the Presidency of the Confederate Government by tho united voice of his people. Well does ho know that Mr. Davis was not the author of “the Rebellion” (so called), nor was he its self constituted ]eader. Rut it matters not what were his political faults. 110 has more than expi ated them in a martyrdom which will ren der the name of Jeff' Davis glorious and mcifforable, while it leaves a blot upon tho honor of our nation that ages cannot efface. That martyrdom bus extorted sympathy even from his most relentless enemies—and hard indeed must be that heart which cau withhold a tear of regret that so brave a man, so noble a spirit, should bo singled out to suffer for the faults of millions of others equally as guilty as himself. Such a heart, is fouud iu tho State of Georgia! Callous to the dictates of humanity, unmindful of the feelings of those who nourish and warm it into existence, only that it may sling them with his venom in return for their kindness, it utters its disunion sentiments under a Vaviug National banner, with the motto, “United, wo stand ; Divided, we fall.” “The star spangled banner in triumph doth ware O’er the land of tho free and the homo of the brute /” We ask no tear for Mr. Davis from such a source; no tears for the gallant soldiers who havo gone to “slumber in tho dust” beneath tho garlands woven and deposited there by tho hand of beauty and inuocenco. All wo ask of him is silence—respect for the feelings of those whose hearts are crushed with tho calamity of national woo and individual loss. Notice.— A.
