EX-PRESIDENT DAVIS.
Anything that relates to the Ex-Pres
ident of the late Confederate States
must possess au untiring interest to
the people of these States. We have,
in onler to gratify, as far as possible,
this commemlahle interest, published
almost everything concerning the fallen
chieftain that tve have come across in
our daily gleanings. From Dr. Craven’s
book we published copious extracts.
Below we give an interesting letter to
the New York Times, which gives an
other and a very different view of Mr.
Davis’ “prison life,” from that given by
Dr. Craven. ,With those conflicting
statements it is difficult to form any
correct idea of the conditions or move
ments of the ex President. We can
only read them and draw our own con
clusions, merely hoping that it will not
be lojig justice will “open wide his
prison doors" and bid the captive go
thee. Hero is the article from the
Times :
Richmond, Vs., Wodnesiliy, July 11.—
Nothing is more difficult than for the news
paper correspondent to gain even a tran
sient view of the inner life at Fortress
Monroe, as the Government has issued
an imperative order for the exclusion of
this class from tho precincts of the Fortress.
The public must bear about tho prisoner
at Fortress Monroe; thoy expeot it, end
demand it at our hands, end not befog
able ourselves to see Jefferson Davis, wo !
aro driven to the necessity of deriving our j
knowledge of him from those who have the j
privilege. A gentleman of this city, of j
the highest, standing snu character, has ;
recently had a very extended interview !
with Davis, having spent an entire day
with him in the Fort, and what X have to
say of the prisoner is derived from this en
tirely trustworthy source.
THE rr.KSKNT COSniTIOX
of Davis is far from healthy. He has that
peculiar sallowness that is the inevitable
result of long confinement, and his nervous
irritability uuder restraint has naturally
enough taken off and keeps off what little
flesh be ever had. Ho has no appetite, and
it was nbtkti tho other day as a remarkable
event, that be ate the whole of a crab at
ono meal. The constitution of the man
seems gone, and Dr. Cooper said as much
when, being asked ,why he did not build
up his patient.promptly, he replied that
there was nothing- to build on. Whether
this state of affairs is a result of bis con
finement is at least problematical. A man
of seriously impaired health for years be
fore he was taken to the Fortress, and a
sufferer from nervous disease, it is the pre
valent opinion that the ruin that came upon
bis ambition would hare brought him to
precisely the same physical condition with
out any confinement at all. He was not
the man to sneer it away, like Benjamin ;
or work it away like Lee and Johnston;
or philosophize it away, like Stephens.
Whatever might have been, the plain, sim
ple truth is that Jefferson Davis is suffering
at Fortress Monroe from tho same nervous
disease to whiuh ho was for years con
stantly subject at Richmond and at Wash-
ington.
The “glaring light” is in the adjoining
room on a small table in its centre. The
bed is thus in the shadow, and the direct
light does not reach Davis at all; and it is
only after it has traversed the half of one
largo room, Iho whole of another, and been
reflected back from tho opposite plain
white wall of his room, that it has any
power to annoy the prisoner. His ejes
are very weak, and the light doubtless does
annoy him more than it would any man
living; but General Miles, conceiving it
his duty to have the prisoner always in
sight of the sentinels, it is difficult to im
agino any plan by which he can make the
light less offensive than it is under the
present arrangement; but the more sensi
ble course undoubtedly would be to dis
pense with sentinels altogether, and leave
Davis at night, as at day, to his parole.
Air. Davis does not complain of being
disturbed by the noise of the sentinels.
By day, Mr. Davis is atentire liberty un
der parole within the limits of tho fortress,
and generally spends the most of his time
in the apartment of his wife, who has had
one of the casemates assigned her. He is
at liberty to receive any books or papers
that anybody chooses to send him, and
in perusing these, aud in conversations with
his wife and with the numerous visitors
who are constantly calling upon him, ho
prevents time from haugiug heavily upon
his hands.
THE CniVEN BOOK.
Although he has never said so in so many
words, he has said enough to show that he
has read the work with decided impatience
and indignation. die thinks it a gr.'Sß
breach of confidence, in the first place, for
Dr. Craven to have written any book about
him at all, as all the information ho pro
tonds to give was derived from the confi
dential and generally considered sacred re
lation of physician and patient. Having
written a book under these circumstances,
Mr. Davis thinks he was doubly bound to
adhere strictly to truth. Generally, Mr.
Davis denied tho accuracy of every reported
conversation in tho book, but as throwing
light upon his thoughts and feelings, I
specify a few of the points he made.
He grew most indignant perhaps over tho
fact that Craven puts into his mouth on
several occasions tho expression, “ Me aud
my people/’ wiiioh he says be never used at
aiiy time or upon any occasion, tho form of
words usod when bo had occasion to refer
to himself and tho Southern people bciug,
** Me and onr people.” In commenting
upon this point, Davis remarked that what
ever he might have been, he had never been
egotistical.
Mr. Davjs repudiates in toto the Crayon
account of tho manacling scene, including
the mock-heroic speeches Craven represents
to have been made on both sides. His ac
count is to tho effect that when tho file of
soldiers entered his room, and the sergeant
had stated in a few direct words the busi
ness upon which they had come, he (Davis)
qnietly and briefly said that he must resent
it to the extent of his power us an insult
• to “mestud oar peoplo." With the view
only of entering this forcible protest, aud
with no intent of engaging in a childish
struggle with the soldiers, ho struck at the
man nearest him, when the soldiers brought
fhetr arms promptly to the position of
“ charge bayonets.” Sergeant -> bnW
ever, Instantly ordered, “ shoulder arms,”
and hml the prisonergeieed and placed upon
the bed. When tberf, Davis struggled for,
a moment with the same indent, but„only
for a moment, and theft submitted without
remark to what he k*»w be ojsuld not avoid.
The sesgesnt (who was the only "officer”
present), Mr. Davis says, performed bis
duty jnst as a soldier would do, made no
excuse for it, and. did not plead orders. In
short, all the details of tbis seen# in the
Craven, book, Including the exclamation by
Mr. Davis, “Oh, tho shame! oh, the shame!"
are, upon tlio authority of the prisoner him
self, merely figments of the Doctor’s imagi
nation.
Me. Davis is particularly indignant over
the fact that ho is made to endorse General
Hunter as a “Christian and a patriot;” and
bo says, truly enongb, that it would hare
been grotesquely ineensistent fur him to
have done anything of the kind after hav
ing, as President of the Confederacy, put
Hunter under she ban as a robber. All
that he ever raid to Craven on the subject
wes, that Hunter was a fanatic, and he
gave as his reason for the opinion, that he
had on two occasions, some years ago, at
tended Hunter in a duel, and that both
times, when all was in readiness for the
word to be given, Hunter kuelt down and
prayed, rising and firing at the word.
Mr. Davis says that ho never uttered a
word upon the question of reconstruction
until May last,five months after Dr. Craven
had left the fort. Then he did, at the re
quest of some of the officers of the fort, ex
press his views, and it is tbis conversation
{hat is attempted to be given in the book,
and is there represented as having been
held with Dr. Craven himself. With the
report made of his remarks, Mr. Davis docs
not find much fault, except that when
speaking of the folly of requiring people to
take oaths, be illustrated it by saying that
when the Fugitive Slave Law was in force,
tho Now England members Cuming to the
bars of the Houses of Congress to swear
support to the Constitution and the laws,
always made a mental reservation against
the Fugitive Slave Law. Tbis illustration,
which he seems to consider of great weight,
is omitted.
Upon one point Mr. Davis rises to tho
dignity of justice, and puts to the blush
those of his self-constituted advocates who
are continually loading Genoral Miles with
tho most opprobrious epithets. Mr. Davis
has none of these for the man whuin fate
has made his jailor, but simply says that to
him Gcueral Miles is au enigma. Ho says
he knows Miles to be a brave man and a
good soldier, and is loth to believe that his
course toward him (Davis) has been pur
sued only for the purpose of adding to his
physical discomforts, or of putting indig
nity upon him, aud prefers to believe that
the man whom he knows to boa good sol
dier has pursued his course from a sense of
duty. Further, Mr. Davis admits that
when he has made complaint of anything
in his treatment, General Miles has rectified
it; and the prisoner’s only further ground
of dissatisfaction was, that it was not doue
at once, tho General taking his own time to
work the reform.
Influence of Smiles. —A smile is
indeed a thing of beauty. Whether
living on the lips of gladsome youth, or
flickering on the dying features of worn
out age, it hold its beauty still. Whether
making loveliness yet more winsome, or
rendering ugliness less repulsive than
its wont, a smile yet holds its nature—
yet it is beautiful. Magic lurks therein,
and sways the human heart as words
never can quickens its quiet pulse, or
soothes and calms the hurried throb as
they may need. And beneath the en
couraging influence of one sweet up
holding smile, the heart itself may
change its mood, may yield its mad
intent, if not cast out forever its evil
promptings and its dark propensities.
And so may the smiles of derision
madden beyond what the utmost words
can do, even as the smile of praise will
spur humanity to great and noble deeds
beyond the approach of all other prompt
ings. Its silent power sinks in the heart,
and heals some new-made thrust, as
sweetly and gently as falls the mysterious
dew from heaven. And the smile of
love 1 It beams in the mother’s eyes as
she secs beauty in her infant's face, and
a silent laugh of unknown joy from her
.darling boy. It plays with stronger and
more thrilling magic, as her heart's idol
meets her far-seeing eye, and draws near
to let her look of love lose none of its
precious value in needless distance be
tween them. And with deeper, purer
joy, it comes to the wife’s glad face when
her husband’s fond gaze tells her how
much is gained since he first called her
wife. Holy, beautiful indeed, is the
smile of fathomless and perfect love—
too seldom indeed does it live, too sel
dom lightens heavy cares and earthly
sorrows.
Too seldom does it have its birth—too
often does it soon leave life’s pathway,
even if fairly born and dearly welcomed
there.
Points Well Put. —The New York
Times makes the following good points:
Progress, with the Abolition leaders,
means, first, Emancipation; next Suf
frage, and finally, Amalgamation. The
first step cost more blood and treasure
than any nation ever shed and expended
in any one war. While the struggle for
Suffrage and Amalgamation is progress
ing, the emancipated negro will perish.
Fair Play. —Was it frank, fair or
manly to ask the Southern States to
ratify the Constitutional Amendments
abolishing slavery, it we intended, after
they accepted that condition, to keep
them out of the Union.
The Government and Union. —Tho
people devoted three thousand millions
of dollars aud a half a million of lives to
keep States in. the Union. Congress
has consumed eight months and other
millions to keep such States out of the
Union.
Why ?— Why, if we are to remain
enemies did we stop the war? While
our armies were in the field we could
have completed the subjugation of tho
South.
