SENSATIONAL DIsPAroHEs.--The fab
ricated dispatches from the North
which daily come over the telegraph
wires have prevented the Southern
people from reposing much confidence
10 what is sent from Washington and
New York until corroborated either
by subsequent message or mail. 1t
was telegraphed from this city that
the Democratic State Convention Of
Louisiana had refused to endorse the
Presidents views and poIlcy-whllst
the Convention had approved the
course of the President in the most
cordial and emphatic terms. The
correspondence between Mr.. Benja-
min and Commander. Wise with re-
gard to the genuineness of forgery OF
the papers found upon the body Of
the Inflated Dahl gren, called forth a
letter from distinguished Confeder.
ate officer to Richmond paper, Civ
ing strong proof of their authenticity !;
the press dispatch explicitly declared
that Major Borrocke, the officer in
question, states in his letter that the
papers were forgeries. Then we had
The escape Of Jefferson Davis in the
clothes Of negro--a statement as re-
voting as it was unfounded. Now we
have il disseminated that the Presi
dent remarked be had tried to over
wbeIm the South with pardon and
kindness, but from recent events be
had begun to think them incapable
Of approaching his magnanim'ty.
Now, what recent events could have
induced such an expression from Mr..
Johnson7 Is it the hearty good will
and the grateful appreciation which the
whole Southern country exhibits for
the wise, mild and conciliatory
course Of bis Administration Is it
the determination everywhere exhibi
ted ID the South to throw aside seo'
tional prejudices, and prove their 10y
ally by their good deedsa
OF all the Instruments Of human in
genuily, the telegraph 10 the most
available for communicating truth
and knowledge. Those who control
its workings should be the most con.
scientious and fastidions in sending
dispatches nothing should be trans
United except what was scrupulously
reliable, and all gosSiping should be
strictly tabooed.
As the thing is now conducted, it
looks more like an enterprise for stock
jobbiug purposes--for it is fatty de-
clared, in late Northern papers, that
the dispatch not long since forwarded
to all parts Of the country, to the ef-
feet that sales Of wagons, horses and
other military appliances had been
countermanded, was manufactured for
the purpose Of affecting the funds, and
inducing the people to believe war
was imminent with Mexico.
A truce to such fabrications they
will recol upon their originator, and
the temporary benefits they may se-
cure will inevitably be followed by the
obloquy and loss consequent upon
every alteration from the paths Of
truth and rectitude. IN. o. True
