A REPUBLICAN VIEW OF JEFFERSON
DAv1s.-The Boston Advertiser, an able
Republican journal, says that if it had no
other evidence, the inaugural address Of
the new President of the confederate
States" is proof Of the unusual wisdom
with which the secessionists acted when
they elected Jefferson Davis to that Office.
It credits him with as marked combina-
tion of the qualities most needed for his
work as eny revolutionary leader ever ex-
hibited, and adds:
As the leader of the cotton States in their
movement against the General Govern.
ment, whether the controversy is to be car.
riod on by civil measures only, or by stern.
er methods, to which he processes himself
prepared, though unwilling to resort, this
Government could have no more dangerous
enemy than Mr.. Davis, and this fact, We
believe, needs to be more widely reeogui.z.
zed than it is among our people. Because
Mr.. Davis has led the extreme South, many
have come to regard him as possessing tho
personal qualities and weaknesses Of the
ssfre eaters" But Mr.. Davis is, on the
contrary, cool.headed, far:sighted and not
hasty. What he says or does is not the re.
suit of crazy impulse, but Of cool determi-
nation, and is supported not by the tempo.
rary strength of frenzy, but by real intel
lectual and moral power. In short, he is
an antagonist who challenges respect, as
we'll as the utmost vigor and caution inop-
position, and one whom any statesman might
rejoice to encounter in high national con-
test, were he of any country save our own,
and weie the matter in debate anything ex.
cept the Union. ~. ~ s~s 4a7

A NEW SUNDAY PAPER.

TTNHE undersigned will commmence the pub
l. lication of q new weekly paper on Sunday,
the 3lst Of March, in the city Of Washington, D.
G., to be called the
"SUNDAY MORNING CHRONICLE"
The Chronicle will be entirely independent of
party politics. although strongly devoted to the
Union Of these States. Our object will be to
furnish the reading public such u newspaper as,
while filing up the vacuum created by the ab-
sencs OF a medium of news on the. first day Of
the week, will contain nothing inconsistent with
the Sabbath, and nothing calculated to wound
the sensibities of those who entertain just
prejudice against the reckless and indecent char
acter of some of the Sunday papers of the great
cities. Washington, with q reading population
Of more than sixty thousand, and at many sea-
sons Of the year crowded with strangers from
different parts of the country, Is probably Of
the most interesting fields for the commencement
OF such an enterprise as ours. 1t is at this mo-
ment the market for the sale of large numbers of
periodicals and serials printed elsewhere, and we
entertain an undoubting hope that if the pages
of the Chronicle are well filed with instructive,
agreeable, and elevated reading, as well as with
the latest general and local Intelligence, so i'm
portant at all times, and 80 much sought after
now; its editorial columns presided over with
dignity and ability, and devoted to the discus
sion Of every questlon--domestic, social, politi-
cal, scientific, and literary-it will be welcomed
with hearty reception, and achieve perma-
nent success. To this end we have made ar
rangements with the best journalists 10 contribute
to our columns. Communications have already
been received from number of distinguished
writers, North and South, whose names will be
duly announced in the first number of the Chron-
i'le We have also engaged the best talent for
the collection Of news up to IL o'clock on Satur-
day night, including the action of the various
Departments, the current events of the city and
District, telegraphic dispatches from all parts Of
the Union, etc.
The Chronicle will be served to subscribers at
one dollar and fifty cents per annum, payable in
advance. JAMES b. SHERIDAN co.
