JEFFERSON DAVIS. Indicatory LcHcr from I lie I&x-Eoafedcrate Chief. fferson Davis I'.hs written tin* fallowing letter to Judge Lyons, of Richmond, Virginia : Ni: w Oki.bans, J an nary 27. Hon. James Lyons M Dear Friend : Your very kind letter of the I4ili inst. was forwarded from Memphis, and ha- been received at this place. I have Iteen no long the object of malignant .'hinder, and the subject of tinseriipiilo is false hood by partisans of the class of Mr, /ilaine, that though I cannot fay it lias become to mo a matter of indifference, it has ceased to excite my surprise. Even in this instance, when it reaches the extremityol accusing me of cruelty to prisoners, what matters it In one whose object is personal and party advantage that the records, both Federal ami Con federate, disprove the charge, that the country is full of witnesses wlm hear oral testimony against it, ami that the effort to revive bitter ani mosities of the Wat' obstruct* the progress toward the reconciliation of the sections ? It is enough for him if his sell-seeking purpose he promoted. It would, how ever, seem probable that such expecta tions must he disappointed, for only those who are willfully blind can fail to see in the circumstances ol the case the fallacy of Mr. iflaine’s statements. ’I lie published fact of »n attempt to Biiboin Wirtz while under sentence o' death, by promis ing pardon if lie would Criminate me in regard to Andersonville oris*, oilers, is conclusive as to the wish of the Government to make such a charge against me, and the failure to do so shows that nothing could be found to sustain it. May wo not say the evidence of my innocence was such that IL.lt and Conover, wuh their trained hand of suborned witnesses*, dared not make against me this charge, which Wbirz hn ids life «onkl not make, hut which .Zflnine for the Presidential nomina tion, has made ? Now, let us review the leading facts in the case. The report of the Vonlcdeiate Commissioner for the exchange of prisoners, shows how persistent and liberal wcie our efforts to secure the relief of cap ti \es. Failing in these attemnis, 1 instructed Geneial R. E Lee, to go, under a flag «d'trace, and seek an interview with Gen. Grant, to represent to him the firdering and death of Federal prisoner* held by us; to explain the causes, which were beyond our control, ami to urge in the name of humanity the observance of tire eat tel for the ex change of prisoners To this, as to all previous appeals, a den! car was turned. I will not attempt, from nieinoty to wiite tin* report made tome of the incidents of this mis- feii*n. Lea no longer lives to d* - lend tht; cause and counti v he l ived ko well and Mured so efficiently hut Gen. Grunt cannot, ia-tl to ie member vo extraordinary a visit, and llis objecti> .1)s to exeeuiing the < artel art: well known to the public. But whoever may choose to for set eSoils in tins regard, the prt.s oners at Andersenviile and: the del egates I permitted them to send to I’iesiiL nt Lincoln to plead lor the iestimation of the exchange ol pris oners, cannot fail to remember how willing 1 was to restore them to their homes and to tlie comforts of w hich they were in need, provided ihe imprisoned soldiers ol the Cm fedeiaev sh mid he in like manner, released and returned to ns. This foul accusation, though *ls | reeled especially against me, wftV, i no doubt, intended, and naturally i must be,the ai raigioncnl o' Hie,south by whose authority and in whose iie liall my deeds were done. It mav be presumed that the feelings and the habits of the Southern soldiers were understood by me, and in that connection any fair mind would i perceive m rnv congratulatory orders | to the army after a victory in which the troops were most commended I for their tenderness and generosity to wounded and Other captives, as well as the instincts ol persons who issued the order, as the knightly tempers of the soldiers to whom it was addressed. It is admitted that the prisoners in mil' hands were not as well pio* vided fer as we would like to have them, but it is claimed that we , well for tlierr. as we could. f ’an iha otlter side rav as much? To I the bo'-d of Ihe ill treat ment oj the prisoners by o r bide, and tin* bu-ontiw treatment and title' fpiato i,f opponents, it is onlv t| u ,„ |acU . 1 ii't It a 'l'om-o-eports <d the United Stales U’»- |W m , IM . l(t that . though we bikj GbpQti more Fideral prisoners than »,„ v Confederates, ,<SOOO ot yon feileiates <i : cd in Northern piis, , S-Coiul—flic want and buffering «, toon in Northern prisons, C.'ii*etl me to a-k for permission to se.i) out cotton and buy supplies for tv.em Tin* request was grunted, but Oiltj an condition that till* cotton should lie sent in Mew York, ami the sup plies ho bought Ilißeale, U ttv of !st Icll's, wis authorized to purchase and diutvihuto the needful supplies. Our sympathies rose with the occasion, mid responded to its demands, not waiting (or ten years lin n t ) vaunt itself when it could si iV, no good purpose to the suf ferers. Under the mellowing influences of line, ami the oeci-i m il demon, slialions at the North of a desire lb die restoration of peace and goo' will, the Southern people have ho gotten tiliieli ami forgiven much el the wrongs they lure I fit be se among the invaders, it is but another example of die rule, thai the wrong doer is Dss able to for give than lie w ho has suflei e I cause Lss v l ong, D is net,however,gener ally among those who braved the bazar Is of battle that unrelenting vindictiveness is to he toimd—the brave and generous and gentle. It is the skulkers ol the light—the Blaines—who display their flag on an tinteuted field.

When closely confined amFortress Manioc, I whs solicited to add mv name to those of many esleeinv.fi gentlemen, who had signed u peti tion lor my pimtou, and an assur ance was given that, oil doing so, the president would order iny de liberation. Confident of the ju-ticc of Our Cause ami rectitude of my own cunduct, I declined to s : gn the petition, and imi ained subject to the inexcusable privations and tor tures which l>f.

When, alter two \Cars ot close confinement, I was admitted lo hail, a* often as requir ed 1 appeared for trial Under the in dictmeiil fonml against me, hut in whirl) Mr. Blaine’s fi Minns do not appear.
