The JeR. Davis Meeting In New
5 York.

A few days ago, says the N. Y. Bee, the
telegraph gave an account Of meeting IN
New York by the friends Of JEFF. Davis
According to this report, it was maintained
at that meeting that the Southern rebellion
was still alive in different form, and other
declarations were made Of Secession and
5selitious character. ~
This statement was Incredible on its face.
No friends of JEFF. Davis, no well.Wishers
for the Sohth, could speak in the manner al
legged, as they must well know that doing 80
would surround the, late head Of the Con
federacy with greater peril, and draw upon
the latey rebellious Strtes Increased suspi-
cion vile giving to their enemies new pre-
text for retaining them ander rigorous mill
tary authority. The radicals had already
charged that the people Of those States
were moi sincerely loyal, but we're still rebels
10 spirit, and as far as possible in fact, and
therefore not to be trusted. 10 indorse
such All accusation would be q strange dis
play Of friendship.
The while story had the complexion Of
that system Of misrepresenting feeling and
opinion at the South, adopted BY certain
Journalistic aud correspondents in order to
Justify their argument for denying to the
Southern people restoration on terms Of
constitutional equality.
There now seems no doubt that DO such
meeting as that reported by the telegraph
took place A meeting WIS held il refer
ehee to tile trial of JEFF rson Davis and
other prisoners of State, and to it Horace
Grceley,--ayery unlikely presence at So
ccssion and pro-slavery conference, Twas
invited. Referring to the occasion sabse-
aaently in the Tribune Of the 81, sir. Gree
ley said:
Certain citizens were inyited-we know
not by whom--to attend meeting last

ers now held by our Government as prison

attend, having dislike to meetings that
may be termed secret, which have any rela-
ton to public affairs; but we are entirely
and VIGOROUSLY favorable to the ayowed
object of the meeting that is, to securing
to every one accused Of high crimes fair
public, lawful trial. Some one reported to
the Evening Post that this was Secession
meeting, and that Secession sentiments were
openly proclaimed by persons in attendance,
which Peter Y. Cutler and others who were
there enphatically deny. We trust they
are correct Surely, no one not an absolute
fool could utter such sentiments in connec-
tion with the defense Of prisoner Of State
whose fate would clearly be imperiled there
by. Nothing beside would 60 SO far to-
