ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS THE
Much has been said In the papers OF the
country, since the arrest Of JETTERsoS DA'
Wis, upon the subject Of how and where he
would and should bstrisd. II has been sev-
eral times positively asserted By Washington
telegraphic correspondents to some Of the
leading papers in the North and West, that
the Government has decided 10 try him In
one Of the civil eourts-tho District Supreme
Court being, in several instances, named ~
the appropriate and positive tribunal Itts
pcrhnPs, not improper to say thnt the Go'A
srnment has not only not decided 70 try him
before the Supreme Court Of the District O.
Columbia, but II has not yet decided TO ~
cord him q trial before any civil tribunal.
There Is wrong idea prevailing that i
would not be proper 10 try DAVIS before
military commission. We must confess thHt
wo entertain very little respect for this op'n-
ion, omanating, as II almost invariably docs,
from rebel sympathiEers and eopperhendf.
No good reason can be given why JETTERscN
DAVIS should not be tried by military court
martial.
The only reason We have heard advanced
is that we should try 10 show the world how
strong We are, and that the moral ehest
ab"ond would be good. This masniheep +
humbug. The answer to all this Is FT".
Thai the world already knows hO'0 strong fe
are II II does not, II can easily hnd out.
Secondly. We are not striving to produce
moral effect "abroad, " but upon traitors nt
home, TO the end that when they Violate IN
oath which they have taken to support the
Constitution and Union Of the United st"te',
and enter upon the reasonable work Of de-
rtroying the one and dividing the other, that
they shall be summarily dealt with by court
martial and executed as traitors, and not be
dignihed with trial In eir" court. A
civil court Is no place to deal with such un-
civil scoundrels rs JEW DAVIS and his in
famous crow have proved themselves to be-
Tne most ignominious way 70 dispose OF

A YOUNG LADY'S SOLILOQUY.

What was born for? ''For Somebody S wife,

And then, as for temper and manners, tbs plain,
He who seeks for perfection will seek here in vain
Nay in spite of these drawbacks, my heart is per-

And should not feel grateful, ''for better or

TO take the first BOBBY that graciousy came
And offered those treasures, his home and his
name.

But why shonld think of such chances at all?
My brothers are all of them younger than |,
Yet they thrive in the world, why not let me try +?
know that in business Pm not an adept,
Because from such matters most strictly I'm kept.
But--ths is the question that puzzles my mind
Why am not trained up to work of some kind !?
Uselessy aimlessly, drifting through life,
Why should wait to be Somebody's wife?'

Come braid a GARLAND ere the leaves

greatest determination, fifteen minutes
elapsed before the mistake was discovered
The firing in this skirmish was the first
warning Davis had. The captors report
that he hastily put on one of his wifes
dresses and started for the woods, closely
followed by our men. They at first
thought him woman, but seeing boots
while he was running, they suspected his
sex at once. The race was short one.
The rebel President was soon brought to
bay.
He brandished bowie knife and showed
signs of battle, but yielded promptly to
the persuasions of Colts revOlvers without
compelling the men to fire.
He expressed great Indignation at the
energy with which he was pursued, saying
that be had believed our government too
magnanimous to hunt down women and
children.
Mrs. Davis remarked to Col. Harden,
after the excitement was over, that the
men had better not provoke the President,
as he might hunt some of them. "Regan"
behaves himself with dignity and Iesigna-
ton. The party evidently were making
for the coast. ......... -.-.-.-..
