"voics 10 0till fsr War;"
Je6 Davis has turned mp again. He has H.
sued . proclamation from Danville, and big
"voice i still for war" The reader win find
that proclamation In another part Of this paper.
II il savage, sanguinary and defiant, from first
to last; but 1t was issued upon the false pre-
sumption that, though he had lost Richmond,
General Lee had escaped with bis army. This
absurdly bs!ligsgsnt saisi y ast:d Danville,
April s, several days before the surrender Of
Lee, and doubtless before any information had
reached Danville Of the accommodating and fatal
disasters Of his awful retreat
Under this delusive idea, however, that he
still had Lees army TO support him, Davis de-
aantly falls back upon the strategy Of Ben
Wood. "The finest army Of the confederacy,
under is ablest military leader, had been
greatly trammelled,D he says, "by the necessity
Of keeping constant watch over the approaches
to the capital" and thus II had been "forced
to forego moro than one opportunity for
promising enterprises" In other words General
Grant lad driven this "Anest army Of the con-
into Richmond, and had turned the
kew on II TIL ready 70 draw General Lee ont
and run linn Avw.. Dut, although Davis

agrees with Ben Wood lat his arDiss, "now ~
