Opinions Of Mr.. Davis and Mr.. Stephens.

Extract from, the letter of.
President Ddpts to Cor.
Hanee, dated January 81,
1861:
al fear much from the
tenor Of the news I receive
from North Carolina, that an
attempt will be made by some
bad men to inaugurate move
ments which must be con-
sidered as equivalent to aid
and comfort to the enemy,
and which all patriots should
combine to put down at any
cost. You may count on nay
aid In every effort to spare
your State the scenes of civil
war. fare, which will devas-
tate its homes if the designs
of these traitors be suffered
to make head. l know that
you will place yourselfin your
legitimate position in the
lead of those who will not
suffer the name of the old
North State to-be blackened
By such q stain. Will you
pardon me for suggesting
that my only source Of dis.
quietude on the subject arises
from the fear that you will
delay too long the action
which now appears inevitable,
and that by an over earnest
desire to reclaim by coucilia'
tion men whom you believe
to be sound at heart, bu,
whose loyalty is more thar
suspected elsewhere, you will
permit them to gather such
strength as to require more
vi01ept measures than or.
nj sededi With your in,
fdebce and position the pro
moters of the unfounded dis
content now prevalent il
your State, would be pu,
down without the. use of ply
steal force. if you woult
abandon a policy of concilia
tion, and set them at def
ance. In this course, frankly
and firmly pursued, yoi
would rally around you al
that is best and noblest il
your State, and your triumph
would. be bfoodless. II III,
contrary policy ..be adopted
l much fear you will b
driven 70 the use Of force :
repreSS treason. In eithe
event, however, be assure'
that you will have my cords
concurrence and assistance i
maintaining with you tn
honor, dignity and fair nam
of your State, and in ysu
efforts to crush treason

From the eulogy of generals can pass to more
pleasing theme. The soldiers of our army have
covered themselves with glory. More than half of
our male population have taken arms. Many thou.
sands bave fallen on the CORY battle field, covered
with blood and glory, far away from their homes
and all they loved in this world. They willingly
gave their lives to freedoms cause Green be their
graves They are the purest specimens of all that
is modelled on to the sacrifice by no desire for
fame-inoved not by wild lust for distinction and
earthly renown. Nor did they, like Pizarro's rob-
ber-band fight for heaps of gold and glittering dia-
monds. No, they fought for far brighter jewels
ers fought-to be free! Far away from the spot
where they frl-far from the exciting roar of artil
lery and musketry, across many . broad extended
PLAIN ana many lofty mountain whose summit is
first gilded by the golden rays of the rising sun,
many afather, mother BROTHER sister, wife orphan
children mourn their early fall Even amid the ex.
element of, the battle, how keen is the anguish,
when the fallen warrior reflects that his eyes will
never behold his wife, nor his ears hear the pratt
Ting of his babes! ~. -
Nor are the living soldiers less noble than the
dead. Officers may fight for renoxyn or ambition,

The act strictly prohibits the judiciary from their
lawful cognizance Of offenders by appointing COM
missioners, while it vests in the President and com.
missioners the exclusive power to determine wheth
er the party arrested shall be detained If they are
not to be detained but fer probable cause then the
necessity of commissioners does not exist; for the
judiciary would not release, under the writ of ha.
6eas corpus any one against whom facts proved
sufficient to constitute probable cause If the act
is intended to authorize tie holding of persons
merely for the qualification of malice and against
whom there is no foundation for charge, and no
proof amounting to probable cause, the law would
be most inexcusable and reprehensible.
