irUf" A Council of State was Fiolding in
Berlin on the 15th instant, and engaged in
the consideration of the question of the re
aneexation of the States of Southern Ger
many to the German Confederation.
NIo More Yielding.
An exchange happily remarks, that timid
ity no ui'To act ieves success in politics than it
does in war. The struggle for the Union
which is living inaugurated hy the bonServa
tive patriot*, mu*t be carried on with the
most vigorous measures of offensive warfare.
The Radical whale (Dust have a fresh har
{tot'n UHten intS him everytime he rises to
blow, until he tinges the waves with the
bliM and of his death struggle, and his floating
bareass is safely moored alongside the ship
of State. The opposition has been heretofore
too mealy-mouthed in dealing with cuch a
deadly, mischievous foe to the! peace of our
country, and the purity of our institdtiods
It (bill net do td deal ierdferly vdth a wild
ahd furiotls beast, or a venomous reptile.
American history futnishes no parallel to
such a party as that with which we have to
deal. The chivalry and courtesy which we
used to characterise the bontesta of the
YVhigs and Democrats caanOt be imitated
in a contest with Radicalism. We rhu*t fight
not as if we were bontendiUg Uvith Paladins,
but with savages, wclvbb, hyenas, and mad
dogs. The arrogance fihd brutal ferocity
of such a foe incrbaec just in proportion as
he thinks he inspires fear. Wait not for his
lines to be formed ; charge upon him while
he is in disorder. Get him frightened at
the outset ; nj keep him so; he is cowardly,
and as soon as he finds the Conservatives
are brev -and in dead earnest, he will flee and
bjwer beneath the blows that fall upon him.
C mediation may do from a strong and
m g i.mimous enemy towards a brave and
fitl en foe, hut it will gain us nothing from
.-itch an adversary as the Radical party
We have tiietl the conciliatory policy, and it
failed miserably. Let us now try what po
litical pluck will do- We would as soon
think of meeting with conciliation from a
murderer trying to cut our throat, or a burg
lar breaking into our house, as a Radical in
a political contest.
J eff. Thompson—Characteristic
Letter. —Jeff, t hompson, late a General in
ihe Confederate army, wrltfcs the following
let'er to the editor of the Messenger at Mc-
Kinney, Texas;
Dear Sir Your paper ot 'he 13th ul
timo has just reached me; ands observed
the card of my house, and al*o the editorial
notice. I suppose some friend or acquain
tance instructed you to iusert our card, anti
I have no doubt you meant to do me a kind
uess by your Compliments; whether you
have, however, done so or not, is a question,
If you ind your paper have been fairly,
sqtiar ly, and honestly consistent for the
past five years, then sud may bent fit me;
but it you have been one of those miserable
creatures that were neither “ ram, lamb,
sheep, nor mutton,” during the bite lerrible
war which has so ficroly desolated my coun
try, then your Unionism is not Worth a cop
per, and your notice will injure rather than
serve me among the brave Texans who were
truly Southern, and with whom only I ex
pect to deal
F'or the Federals who met me in battle,
and showed their “ faith by their works,” I
have respect, but for the >. ould-be-wise men
of the South “ who knew the cow would eat
the grindstone,” I have the most supreme
contcmnt.
Jeff don’t say “ the Yankees beat liitn
fighting.” Jeff, don’t “ say that he has
been most gloriously whipped by the Union
troops,”—hut General Thompson says, that
by overpowering numbers in front, and ene
mbs in disguise in the rear, the Confed
erate troops wet.; Compelled to surrender,
and that following the example of his great
lead' rs. he is di-posed to be an humble citizen
of the United States, without sacrificing one
jot of his •* pluck ” or honor.
Believing that you mean to do me a favor
hy your nolice, I thank you for it, but not
knowing your antecedents, l fear you have
done me no good unless you were an honest
Federal soldier.
“Jeff.” will be pleased to sec hin Teias
friends When they visit this city, and he will
try to make one part of your notice true by
selling them all the groceries they desire.
I am yours, most tespeetfully,
>J. Jeff. Thompson.

IS* Daniel Griffin, a prominent and higl

Jefferson Davi*.
From the Constitutionalist of Soiiday morning.
Jt-Ber»on Davis is said to be gradually go
| ing down to bis grave in a deep decline. A
writer iu a Memphis journal observes •
“ Mark my prediction 1 The Only trial that 1
Mr. Davis will ever have, will be at the bar
of Eternal Justice.”
It the United States Government dees not
wish to incur the fearful responsibility of
Cold-blooded murder, it will do one of two
things very rpeedily—either bring 31r. Da
I vis to an immediate trial, or release him from
| prison ! If the President had not cofiituit- 1
j tfi d himself to the work of “ making treason
j odious,” we believe he would long since
, have Said to the illustrious prisoner, “ go j
| free.” But it is ndw, <Ve fear, too late lor
the lleased work of clemency. \Vo ask,
j then ouly for justice. Give Mr. Davis a
i *pcedy trial. And file Southern Represen
tatives in the Philadelphia Convention, if ad
mitted, should not return to their constituen- \
cy Without making one unanimous appeal to ]
thb Chief Magistrate for justice —if the more J
darling attribute of mercy finds no lodging
pluOo in his bosom.
All the good the Conventim can do for
the South, will be nil, nihil, if Jeff. Davis is
left to linger in prison, without some sympa
■ thy in his behalf by his late compatriots !
What a chance is here for A. 11. Stephens
to immortalize himself! Will he ri“e to the
occasion.'’— Macon Doily Georgies Citizen
i Amen, brother A, to every word of it.
| Jefferson Davis lought gallantly for these
United States when they were indeed !
linitcd. lie sat an honored statesman, in
lhat same cabinet chair that Stanton now
defiles, and he spake, as an orator, iu those
halls wheie Sumner traffics hi fils Chariie.
He was once the President of v great, though
unfortunate Republic, aud commander ot
armies whose ill fated valor makes even
Glory weep. Once lie Was feafed dnd re
spected by bis eucuiics, and once, too. be
was trusted asd beloved by his own pcftuliar
people, Europe sounded ouce upon a time
with his praise. From the Warm homes of
England, and from the sunny slopes of
France, there came tributes to his virtues,
and Ood'3 blessing on his cause. Napoleon
addressed him as his equal, and Pope Pius the
Ninth poured forth upon him his august
benediction.
And now that man is dying for our sakes.
At? theec very lined arc written, wolfish eyes
are on him—eyes that have watched his
daily crucifixtion, and will watch him until
that stubborn head shall bow. Think of it,
yc'tt who read—you man or woman, who
this day have walked abroad in freedom, or
worshipped as you would in tho tern; les of
: the living God, that a thoimn 1 tuileS away
j there is murder doing this very hour upon
Jefferson Davis. A-k yourselves if, hy do
ing nothing, if hy saying nothing, if by not
ofiering up at least one prayer fur the S >ul
of a brave man, you are altogether guiltless
of that most enormous sin. Feeble an you
may be, S itfiething tan be done. The wo
men can pray in the churches, and the cler
gy can osier at least one set petition to the
throne ot Grace. And the men, doing this,
tan seek human aid also. They cjn de
mand that those who are in Philadelphia as
delegates front this pun of the country, shall,
if admitted within that Convention, make
some organiz 'd effort to assist our fallen,
outraged, and panting leader. Why, how
would it read in Eutcpe, that T7e had scram
bled into the very tents of* the enemy, like
so many hogs, intent only on getting the
largest share possible of benefit for ourselves !
And yet that is the way they would righteous
ly post us to the infamy of all coming time.
Who thinks that Austria would leave her
Franz Joseph to perish in a Prussian dungeon,
without one single word of remonstrance, or
appeal lor mercy 1 And who does not remem
t er how France rose up as a Gercc flame, de
manditig that the ashes of her great Empe
ror should be brought back from exile, to re
pose on the banks of bis well loved Seine ?
And yet we call the Austrians a sluggish
race, and assume to stamp the French as
fickle—we who have managed, in little over
a year, to almost forget our President, and
are now as stupidly intent on a push-pin Con
vention as we were once nobly on fire for s
Southern Republic. We should demand
some action in behalf of Mr. Davis. We say
demand, because Wo Would never have been
invited to Philadelphia, had nototlr presence
there been deemed of value, and if ol value
let us put a price on our participation. If
they want us, let them pay for us, and let
the price he A speedy release to the Honorable
Jefferson Davis—God bless him—or an in

Jto*- Voltaire’s description by Macauley
will give the reader a good idea of Stevens
and the whole gang of Radical leaders in
and out of Congress :

—he has bequeathed to us not a single
doctrine to be called by his name—not a

Queer Country is China— A country
Where roses have no frsfgrancfi and women no

the roads bear no vehicles and the ships
no keels ; where the old men fly kites and

Dostie —This wretch whose righteous
death at the hands of a mob be had incited
to bloodshed, was once a Chicago birbef,
and subsequently a quack dentist at New
Orleans. For intemperate language in 18(11,
he was kicked out ol the city. After its
I capture, he returned, ami heapttdevery itnag
| inable in-alt, during a reign of vulgarity, up
l on its citizens. He used to frequent negro
meetings with a licentious crowd of whites,
as depraved as Lituself. On one occasion
| he appeared upon the platform, hugging a
mulatto wench, and preaching miscegenation
When in public office, he was accused of
malfeasance and removed. With the ap
pearance of Andrew Johnson as President,
he and the cabal he represented were pros
-1 (rated. A loss of spoils was too bitter for his
j greedy and leprous soul. To recover them
he hesitated at no infhtny, and has reaped
[ the whirlwind of his own sowing. One vi
per is extinguished, but otFiers remain all
over the South Let the fate of this Chi
cago reptile warn them ere it is too late.
