The piradcal: proclamation Of jeff Davis
has reused the New York merchants and pop
ulsce to fury. 1t aims blow at the heart OF
the city. The Times thus comments on 1t:
Jefferson Davis might as well have thrown
lighted match into q powder magazine, as
menace the commerce Of the North with
:priyateers. The effect Of this proclamation
upon our community has been only to deepen
and make tenfold more intense the hatred
and dignation OF the public. Our people
begin to Tealize the real character of the foe
with whom they have to deal AL the Illusions
they have hitherto cherished about fraternity
and kindly feeling towards their sister States
have been rudely dispened. Those whom they
had looked upon as brothers prove to be
pirates. The men whom we have associated
with ourselves, as sharing with us the glo1ies
and blessings Of our comm on country, turn
out to be tie assassine Of the Republic. They
cannot even make war in the spirit Of civil
Ized nation, but go back to the habits and
practices Of the barharism Of hundred years
ago. tbs Jirst seizr.re Of an american tessa by
one Of his pTiyateers soit let zoose upon the So,tt
xqoTe John BFoson's than he can hire pirates in

Invasion upon the people Of the Southern
States, Gov. Wise can enlighten his mind upon
