Capture of JEFF. Davis.

We have the inexpressibo qualification Of chrou.
telling this week, the capture of lPrcsidentll Davis
Throughout the civilized world there will be re.
joicing over this event The capture of the great
est criminal the world ever knew A-wretch who
deliberately conspred for the overthrow Of the best
government ever instituted by man, tho only re
publican government in the world, and labored for
the establishment Of an oigarchy, whose Corner
stone WAS to be the infamous institution of slavery
This may be regarded the faality of the great re-
beon which has filled the land with new made
graves, and reduced TO orphanage several hundred
thousand children A rebellion with less iustifca-
tion than any which has afflicted humanity since
Lucfer led his cohorts Of apostate angels against
the throne Of God
We have no space this week for comment upon
the Importance of this event further than to express
The hope and firm conviction that jeff Davis will
expiate his crimes upon the gallows, where the
leaders Of this rebellion should perish.
Andrew johnson will be false to his declarations
and the cause of free government unless he hangs
Davis. This wretch will be detested and despised
through life by all honorable men, and then
For thousand years,
slt a pale ghost upon the Stygian shore,
Reading his own acts by the red Hight Of He'll
