1eff. Davis Preparing for the Worst.
It is evident, from the established fact Of
Jefferson Davis's sending large sum Of his
own money within the last few. weeks to be
deposited in Cuba, that he is preparing to
eyacuate the country as Santa Anna upon two
or three occasions eraeuated Mexico. But
Santa Anna was always too shreEd to make,
in anticipation Of defeat, such manifestations
Of his plans. Why doesn't the rebel govern
ment impeach Jcd. Davis for showing, almost
before the end Of the first year Of the rebel
