From the Washington Sentinel.
Jefferson Davis, ESQ.

Our readers will remember that in our issue OF
Saturday We corrected certain rumors as to the
views of the Secretary of War relative to the New
York difficulties and his feelings towards the prom
inent men engaged ff them. We used these words
ave have heard it confidently stated that Jeffer,
son Davis, Esq, has made expressions hostile &c
Messrs. Bronson and O'Conner, and in favor of the
freesoil faction in New York. We cannot believe
that any one of ordinary intelligence would give
credence to such senseless report but if there be
any such, we have the most direct and positive
thority for saying that they who have attributed
such expressions to the Secretary of War have viii
fully and designedly misrepresented him.
Mr.. Davis feeling that there is still room for mis-
apprehension has addressed US the following note,
enclosing a copy of letter he has written to a
friend, defining his position with more exactness.-
We lay these communications before readers
and invite special attention to them:
WAsHINGToN: D. c., Oct. g. 1853.
B. TUCKER, Esq:
of misrepresentation of my position towards Messrs
Bronson and OConner of New York. which appear
ed in this mornings Sentinel" yet I cannot but
apprehend that the manner in which the correction
is made may lead to further misapprehension.
The present confusion in the use of old names,
and the difficulty of reconcling present positions
with old opinions, render it necessary to be very
precise in the of terms.
do net consider those who stand firmly on the
platform of the Democratic convention of 1882 to
be treesolers, though they be opposed to the dis
tingushed democrat named by you in the artisle
referred to. d
AS the most certain mode of showing to you my
position in relation to the New York controversy, |
handed to you the duplicate of private letter had
written to friend in New York and Though net
intended for publication, now send you copy of
that letter, by which YOU may best be able to show
my position in reference to the quarrel of the Dem
ocratc family of New York. as long as it retains the
character of dissension among those who in common
support the Administration and uphold the avowed
principles of our party. If, in the progress of the
campaign either division should array itself the
side of the enemies of the Administration become
the agitators of questions which the Democratic par
ty is pledged in all time to prevent from revival,
then shall look upon them foes of the Democ a.
cy and disurbers of that peace and fraternity
tial to Union and such, to be opposed by all
who entertain the views and are influenced by the
motives which govern my conduct.
AS ever your friend,

matters passed between them as pleasantly as could
be desired, until days snce when to their utter
surprise, the first husband of the lady made his ap-
