JeG. Davls's proclamation.
Special to Herald ]


HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoToMAc,
Feb. 14.-Nothing special to report in
this Department | have received Rich
mond dates to the 10th inst. The follow
ing is jeff Daviss proclamation to the
rebel army:
Soldiersl you have achieved many
noble triumphs; you have won glorious
victories over vastly more numerous
foes; you have cheerlu!ly borne priva-
tons and toll, to which You are unused;
you have readily submitted to restraint
upon your individual WILL that the citizen
might better perform his duty to the
State as soldier To all these you have
lately added another triumph, the noblest
of human conquest, victory over your
selves. As the time drew near when
you who first entered the service might
well have been expected to claim relief
from your arderous labors, and restora-
ton to the endearment of home, you
have needed only the call of your suffer
ing country. Again you come to tender
your noble defence, a free offering which
only such patriotism as yours could make,
a triumph worthy the cause to which you
are devoted. / would in vain attempt
adequately to express the emotion with
which receive the testimony of conf
dence and regard which you have recent
lyaddressed to me, to some of the first re-
ceived separate acknowledgment was
returned, but it is now apparent that q
like generous enthusiasm pervades the
whole army, and that the only exception
to such magnanimous tender will be Of
those who having originally entered for
the war cannot display anew their zeal
in the public service. 1t is therefore
deemed appropriate, and it is hoped will
be equally acceptable to make a general
acknowledgment ins'ead of successive
special responses Would that it were
possible to tender my thanks to you in
person, in the name of our common
country as we'll as in my own, while
pressing the hand of each:: war-worn here
to recognize his title to our noble graft
tude and admiration"
