The New York Times publishes letter
from gentleman who was private secretary
to one Of the most influential members Of
JEFF. Da.is' Cabinet, which throws good
deal of light on the character Of that individ-
ual during the last days Of his government.
Il appears that the leading rebels thought
lightly Of his capacity to govern and deemed
him an incubus on their cause. He was ut
terly selfish and obdurate. and his Cabinet
and Congress were merely the tools Of
his insatiabledes for power. He was rudc-
ly intoleraut of any difference Of opinion,
hated men of independent judgment-in fact,
was perfect despot. His manifesto to Con
gress in November last, assuming a singular
cheerfulness, did not serve to hoodwink the
leading rebel politicians, and steps were open.
ly and privately taken to induce Davis to
agree to terms Of peace with the Federal Gov
ernment, on the ground that further efforts
on the part of the South to continue the
contest were hopeless. DAVIS refused, and
the dissatisfaction with him increased. Wig
fall of Texas was ut the head OF party who
aimed at the deposition Of Davis and Steph.
ems, but the sudden calamities which over
took the rebel cause confounded the conspir-
ators, their scheme and their victims. Ac-
cording to the writer's authority, the Confed-
crate military strength before the capture OF
Richmond. east Of the Mississippi, was about
one hundred thousand men. all told. Davis
and his fellow iugitives had but $500 900 in
their wallets on leaving the rebel capital, and
this sum was mainly insilver, which accounts
for its bulk. The principal portion OF the
rebel treasure, 1t seems, was in foreign hands
IA fact which ut least shows. that, in spite
OF all the buster and brag to the contrary.
the necessity Of an early flight had been an
ticipated, and in part provided for consid-
cradle time before the military surrender.

DEEDS AND IDEAs.-The lecture on this
subject. on Saturday evening, before the
Ladies Military Aid Society, was fully at
tended. The title oil the lecture, however
gave not the slightest indication OF what its
contents might be. Some half dozen sub
Ject5 were discussed, or rather touched up
on, Of nature quite diverse nom each
other. Many Of the thoughts presented
were very fine, but the subjects we're 50 nu-

a philosophical exposition of the connec-
ton between ideas and the deeds which
grow cut Of these ideas, the lecture fell far
short Of our expectations. The speaker
made the deeds Of the hero 10 come first,
and after that the history, poetry, sculpture,
music and painting by which these deeds
we're celebrated, were the ideas; but the
great idea which Is the source Of all great
deeds, and which causes the hero and the !
genius TO perform those deeds. he did not
touch upon at all. Yet the distinction be- /
