SYMPATHY FOR JEFF DAvIs.-Somc
one of the editors of the Springfield Re
publican is greatly exercised in the fear
that jeff Davis or some of his associates
will get abused by the government
Every few days it has articles of which
the following are specimen paragraphs:
Whether Davis is tried for treason or
for completely with the assassination plot.
the government can hardly refuse to try
! Clay for his connection with the aSsaSSins.
He gave himself up for this purpose as
serting his innocence, and if really inno-
cent, he ought TO have chance to prove
it. And besides the country will not rest
content with the evidence given before the
military tribunal. The government has
openly asserted that the rebel chiefs were
privy to the plot, and it is now incumbent
ON it to make the assertion good by a fair
and impartial trial before civil court. or
else to withdraw the charges. If all
accounts are true, the government is using
Il great deal of unnecessary harShncss and
severity III Its treatment of Davis, Ste
phcns, and the other rebels. and there is
a very general protest in the papers,
There is nothing to be gained by such a
policy, and we trust it will be speedily
changed.
1t seems to us that there is very little
danger of our government being lmneces-
sarily harsh with these great villians-in-
decd we think the danger is all on the
other side. The Northern people are not
vindictive, and even now, at this early
J day, we are sorry to see a disposition in
certain quarters to overlook the great
crime committed, and receive the wolf
back into the fold. Indemnity for the
past we cannot have, but security for the
future demands that traitors should be so
punished, and treason become so odious,
that no desperate characters shall ever
again attempt to subvcrt the government.
To show how silly and untrue is the
twaddle about the harshncss with which
Davis is treated, we copy from the For
tress Monroe correspondent of the Phila-
delpha Inquirer, printed two days before
the extracts above clipped from the Spring
field paper:
1.-The arch rebel has much improved in
health during the heated term, thanks to
the care of DR.. Craven, who exercises 2
continual supervision over the health of
the prisoner lie is determined that he
shall not suffer physically while under
his care. The doctor had to submit to
some pretty sharp criticism by some visi-
tors at the fort the other day for feeding
Davis with food from his own table; but
insisted that he was detailed as military
officer to preserve the health of Davis, not
to punish him for his notorious misdeeds. ~

proposition was at first favorably enter.

Vermont troops could not without injury

garrisoned by them in the South, and al
the earnest request of Secretary Stanton,

Dram q Prize.

1t beats all what lucky fellows printers
are Some g unintercsted friends have
been trying for several years to have us
buy a package Of tickets in their lucky
lottery" but never until now have we
drawn a prize But now we have drawn
something Misunderstanding less than a
$4,000 prize, and all we have GOT to do to
get it is to send so to Thomas Boult Il
Co., who will forward it at once OF
course they will, for we have their letter
before us in which they promise to do it.
Seriously, the flood of lottery circulars
which fill our country, indicate that these
SwindIers find plenty of dupes and if re-
ports are true some of the hardest work
inc mechanics and young men of our COM
munity are among them.
Another species of Swinlling now quite
popular is the distribution of gifts of jew
elry and other articles on tickets. The
Boston Joumai tells of Il man who in
vested 5000 in one OF these benevolent in
situations which distribute gold articles
and such things at 81 each. He got
watches and other jcwclry Which purport-
ed to be worth $500. bat on sending his
prizes to the United States assay office to
be melted. he found that there was Just

Gen. Grant for Negro Suffrage.

The following sentiments of Gen. Grant
are given in the Chicago Tribune, and
clearly indicate that the Lieutenant Cen
eral comprehendS the situation of affairs
in the South, and foresees the "political
necessity" that will compel the govern
ment to infranchise the blacks. When it
comes to the point that "Me government
and people hare to choose bet,reen keeping a
standing army of 100000 men, at an e.
pense of slOO,OOO,OOO year, to support
the chde minority IN the South against the
rhite rebel majority, or Of eafiuncl'sing the
JIacks, and thereby enabling them to support
the rAate loyaltt,'' we believe the people or
government should not, and will not. be
long in making the choice. But to the
extract above referred to:
Gen. Grant in conversation with his
friends, says that it is too soon to declare
that the loyal blacks in the South shall
not be allowed to vote. Aside from the
abstract right and the legal problem of
what authority can confer or withhold the
franchise-whethcr 1t be congress or the
states-the question may assume the shape
of a political necessity. The government
and people may have to choose between
keeping Il standing army of 100000 men
at an expense of 500, 100000 year to
the tax payers, to support the white mi
nority in the South against the white reb-
ell ajority, or of eniranchising the blacks,
and thereby enabling them to support the
white loyalist> Gen. Grant toreSees that
the suffrage question may take this form -

Adlutant General Washburn of Wood
stock has forwarded us a list of the Yer
mont soldier, who have died at Anderson
Vile, Ga. and whose graves are marked
and numbered. This record was kept bv
A. H. Blake of Milton, who was detailed
to take charge of the " Death Register ;"
by the rebel authorities. This record is
imperfect. although the fullest and most
reliable Of any yet made public. BY this
we learn that Geo. l.. Fairchild of St.
Johnsbury died Nov. II, 1864 but there
is in this no record of the death of l.. ID.
Farnham. although his brothers death is
given.
From this register we learn the awful
fact that 236 Vermont soldiers died in
that pen, of starvation and exposure
Yet there are Northern men and North
ern newspapers that are continually fret
ting because, as they say, the government
is using undue severity in retaining in
close custody some Of the rebel leaders and
chief criminals. The Springfield Rspub-
Hcm was quite savage the other day be-
cause jeff Davis was denied the society of
his wife and children. Such talk in a
Northern paper is outrageous. There
ought to be one of the returned Anderson
Vile prisoners to shrek in the writer's ears
till he could be decent.
Below we copy some of the deaths in
this slaughter pen, Of soldiers who formerly
live,l III this vicinity. We shall keep the
list in our office for reference should any
one wish to see it to find the time Of a
friends death or the number of his grave
