jeff Davis Speech at
Selma, Ala.
HI DISPAIRSOP EUROPEAN RECOGNITION.

A telegram to the Richmond Dipdteh Of The
10th gives an account Of JED. Davis reception
at Selma, Alabama. Davis congratulated the
people on meeting them under such favorable
circumstances, and spoke In glowing terms of
the gallantry of Alabamians on every battle
field. He said II the non-conscripts of Alabama
would gather their guns and 60 to the rescue,
by guarding CORTLAND and other points, there
by relieving regular soldiers who are now from
necessity discharging that sort Of duty, such
blows would be dealt the enemy a. he would find
II difficult to recover from. In this way most
effective aid could be given to the gallant men
and officers who are carrying out the plans Of the
noble Longstreet, under the supervision Of the
heroic Bragg. In this way, the President was
confident Rosecrans could be crushed 10 dirt. II
was only by the force of arms that the Yankees
can be brought to reason and their plans for
our subjugation defeated. Selfreliance and
energy was now our duty. Weshould not look
to Europe for aid, for Sieh 10 not to be er.
pectsd non. Our only alternative was to sus.
tain ourselves with renewed energy and deter
mination, and little more sacrifice upon the
part Of the people; and the President firmly
believed that next Spring would see the invader
driven from our borders. Then farmers who
are now refugees could return TO their families
and pursue their business undlsturbed, as
heretofore. In fact, he believed that the defeat
OF Rosecrans would practically end the war.

In New York, to-day, the Wall street bulls
