assertion of our cotemporary that the letter
speaks the "popular sense" Of the country. 10
the letter the following remark appears-"rHE

The Albany Epsniag Journal of Monday
contains guarded statement with reference to
the letter Of Judge Campbell to Mr.. Seward,
communicated BY JEFF. Davis 10 the Southern
Congress, some days since, In special message.
This statement, which must be regarded ss Civ.
log Mr.. seward's views touching the affair, is
not fully explicit, but implies that the Judges
reputation for candor and frankness would suf-
fer, could the real facts concerning the inter-
course between the parties be Get forth. While
is is not denied that Mr.. Seward copversed
freely with Judge Campbell. or that he may
have intImated that Fort Sumter was TO be
evacuated, The Journal says that such an inti-
NATION was founded on knowledge OF General
SCOTS advice, and was the expression of the
profound conviction that thsmoye-i
