THE PRISONER EVIDENTLY STAGGER
ED BY THE TERRIBLE NEWS, BUT
MAINTAINS HIS OUTWARD APPEAR
ANCE OF COMPOSURE—A BELIEF
THAT THE GOVERNOR MAY GRANT A
RESPITE FOR THIRTY DAYS.
Richmond, Dec. 7.—Gov Lee today
sent a letter to the Counsel of Cluve-
rius, who is now under the sentence
of death for the murder of Fannie
Lillian Madison, in which he says that
he has given to their statements, and
to all the papers and petitions pre
sented for executive clemency in be
half of the prisoner, the careful con
sideration which their importance de
manded. The Governor then adds:
“The prisoner came from the Judicial
to the Executive Department of the
government marked ‘guilty’ by the
Judges and jury/ Starting at that
point therefore, I have been diligent
ly studying the record while industri
ously seeking information and evi
dence from all other sources which
might conclusively prove to my mind
that the verdict of the court was an
error, • and that, therefore, the sen
tence pronounced by the Court of
Hustings and affirmed by Virginia’s
highest court must be set aside or
commuted. With an earnest desire
to faithfully execute, without fear or
favor, the laws of the State impartial
ly to all; with most profound sympa
thy to those upon whose hearts this
blow must fall; with a clear conscience
that I am discharging my duty to the
people of my State, as God has given
me strength to see it, I write you to
inform you that I have not been able to
reach different a conclusion from that
held bvthe courts, and, therefore, the
case ;o*f'Thomas J. Cluverius is ndt
one, in my opinion to call for execu
tive interference, either by the exer
cise of the pardoning power or by
commutation of sentence.”
CLUVERIOUS INFORMED.
The Governor’s decision was con
veyed to the jail by Judge W. W.
Crump, the Senior counsel, and his
son, Beverly T. Crump, who acquaint
ed the prisoner with it. Cluverius
stood the ordeal with the same forti
tude which has generally character
ized his conduct s nee his arrest and
during his trial. After the counsel
left him, however, it was plainly ap
parent that the awful news he had
heard had a marked effect, and that
it w as as much as he could do to main
tain his wonted composure. Shortly
after the counsel left the cell several
reporters visited the jail and made an
effort to see the prisoner, but when
informed of their object by the “death
watch” Cluverius said: “Ido not want
to see anybody.” He was seated in
an armchair with his elbows on his
knees and his chin buried in his
hands. Seeing the reporters at the
door of his cell he changed his posi
tion and endeavored to appear calm
and collected, but it was evident that
the blow had struck home. The
counsel presented a petition for res
pite to the Governor this evening.
No time was named, as that is left to
the Governor’s discretion. It is the
general impression that a respite of
thirty days will be granted.
CLUV»RIUS RESPITED.
Richmond, Va., Dec. 8.—Governor
Lee this evening respited Cluverius
until the 14th of January next. But
for this respite he would have been
hanged day after tomorrow, the 10th
iust.

THE LONG LOST LETTER.
JEFFERSON DAVIS’ LETTER TO SEN
ATOR VANCE IN ’63.
Baltimore, Nov. 19.—The Sun will
publish tomorrow a letter written by
Jefferson Davis, President of the Con
federacy, to Governor Vance, of North
Carolina, in January 1863, which is
believed to be the letter referred to by
General Sherman in the recent con
troversy, and upon which Sherman
based his charge that Davis threaten
ed to use Lee’s army to coerce the
Southern States. The letter was pub
lished in the Raleigh, N. C., Stan
dard, in January 1863, but has been
eut from files of that paper, and was
given to the Sun by an ex-Confeder-
ate officer, who found it among the
effects of a gentleman recently, deceas
ed, who was preparing the history of
North Carolina. The document,
which is quite lengthy, rehearses the
futile efforts made by Davis y to ob
tain a conference with the Northern
leaders looking to a peaceful settle
ment of the differences, and con
cludes as follows: “I fear ranch from
the tenor of the news I received from
North Carolina that an attempt will be
made by some bad men to inaugurate
movements, which must be consider
ed as equivalent to aid and comfort
to the enemy, and which all patriots
should combine to put down at any
cost. You 'may count on my aid in
every effort to spare your State froip
the scourge of civil warfare, which
will devastate her homes if the de
signs of these traitors be suffered to
make a head. I know you will place
yourself in your legitimate position
in the lead of those who will not suf
fer the name of the old State to be
blackened by such a stain.
Will you pardon me for suggesting
that the only source of my disquie
tude on the subject has arisen from
the fear that you will delay too long
the action which now appears inevi
table, and that by your ever earnest
desire to reclaim by conciliation the
men whom you believe to be sound at
heart, but whose loyalty is more than
suspected elsewhere, you will permit
them to gather such strength as to
require more violent measures than
are now needed.
With your influence and position,
the promoters of unfounded discords
now prevalent in your State would be
put down without the use of physical
force, if you would abandon the poli
cy of conciliation and set them at de
fiance. In this course frankly.and
firmly pursued, you would rally around
you all that is best and noblest in
your State, and your triumph would
be bloodless. If a contrary policy be
adopted I much fear you will be driv
en to the use of force to suppress
treason. In either event, however,
be assured that you will have my
cordial concurrence- and assistance
in maintaining with yon, the honor
and dignity and fair name of yonr
State, and your efforts to crush trea
son, whether incipient, as I believG it
now is or more matured, as I believe,
if not firmly met, it will in the near
future inevitably become. I have the
honor to be, very respectfully,
[Signed] Jefferson Davis.

A Big Splinter.
Washington Critic. *.
The Hon. Tim Tarsney, M. C., from
one of the Michigan lumber districts,
has had some rare experiences among
his muscular constituents. At one
time, when he was -’Squire Tarsney,
he made an enemy, and the fellow
made dire threats against his person
al safety.
“I’ll show him,” he said, shaking
his list and gritting his his teeth dan
gerously.
“Do it,” urged his partner, “he aint
nothin’ but a splinter, nohow.”
“You bet I will,” said the fellow,
and he went off after Tim.
In about an hour he returned, look
ing like he had been caught in a
threshing machine.
“Hello, Bill,” said his friend, “what
the devil’s the matter?”
“Durn your fool soul,” he replied,
“didn’t you tell me Tim Tarsney
wan’t no’moren a splinter nohow?’,
“Course I did; an’ he ain’t.”
“Ain’t he?” said the other man
scornfully. “Ain’t he? Well, you
tackle him once, an’ you’ll fin’ out
' mighty durn quick that he’s a saw-log
with bark on. Go get the doctor.”
The shorter the tunnel, the sweeter
the kiss, but the older the cold the
harder the cure. Dr. Bull’s Cough
Syrup has broken many stubborn
coughs.
Why is it dangerous to go out in the
Spring time? Because every flower
carries a pistol, the grass has blades,
the trees shoot and the bull rush is
out. ^
