The following Is from ne new Orleans
Picayune:
THE CApTURE OF JEFFERSON DAVIS.
Several old citizens of New Orleans,
whoIhave recently arrived in the city,
giveh very different version of the az
legged capture of Jefferson Davis from
thatwhich has been telegraphed from
the North. The statement youched for
by these gentlemen represents Mr., Davis
as Voluntarily surrendering himself, in
stead of being captured in Disguise
From their relation it appears that Mr..
Davis was escorted from North Carolina
to Georgia by two brigades of cavalry
On arriving at the Georgia line, Mr.. Da-
Wis, having received intelligence of the
surrender of General Taylor, had his
cavalry escort drawn upin line, and at
ter addressing them in a brief speech, or
dered their dispersal to their homes. He
further directed that a small SUI ofgold,,
which he had saved from the allowance
made him by Congress, should b~ediyided
among the men. He then mounted his
horse, and, accompanied by five or six
personal friends, proceeded to Erving-
ton, Georgia. No disguise or evasion
was used by him. He was everywhere
known and recognized az the President
of the Confederate States. On his ar
rival at Ervington, MI. Davis was shown
the proclamation of President johnson
charging him with completely in thetas-
sassination of Mr.. Lincoln. He imme-
diately informed his friends that he
should send to the nearest Federal COM
mander and inform him of his purpose
to surrender and meet the charge made
against him. This was done, and a de-
tachment of General Wilson's command
came to Eryington, and Mr.. Davis and
his aids surrendered to them -.
In our desire to record the facts OF
history with impartial fidelity, we give
these statements as emanating from gen.
tlemen who have been in a situation to
know them, and who have always borne
the reputation of men of truth and hon
esty.
Whether their statements, or those
made to General Wilson by his subal-
terms, be the more correct, will doubtless
soon be made manifest. At all events,
every accused person has right to be
heard in his defense. and to be made ac-
quainted with the testimony of all the
witnesses of the acts which affect him,
whether they form the body of the ac-
~cusations or only tend to render him
generally obnoxious. Arraigned before
the bar of public opinion, it is the right
of Mr.. Davis that all /, the Testimony
should be heard.

Our Claim. upon England.

The tenor of the latest news from Eu'
rope is to the effect that our demand up.
on England for the payment of damages
inflicted by the Confederate privateers,
fitted out in English ports, is not likely
to be complied with. The English press
regards the losses occasioned by the reb'
ell privateers as part of the chances OF
war for which the British government
is not responsible and will not pay
While DESTROYS of %cultivating friendly
relations with the United States govern
ment, they theirdetermination
to stand by what they call their rights
and latly refuse to comply with u de,
mand. What will be the result OF the
matter remains to be seen, but it is high
" improbable that our Government will
insist upon its claim so strongly as to de-
clare war for its enforcement The at.
fair will afford Mr.. SEWARD an opportu'
nifty for inditing numerous dispatches
and bombarding Great Britain with high
flown words and rhetorical phrases but
beyond that there will be nothing else

We call the attention of Aid Sweeney to the
fact that mis- resolution making it the duty of the
clerk to furnish the Union with the proceedings
of the common council has been disobeyed. The
clerk failed to furnish US with the proceedings of
the special session yesterday. We hope Aid.
Sweeney will have the question decided at the
next meeting of the council whether the aldermen
or the clerk run the council.-Union 10th.
The city clerk has not disobeEed the in
struotions of the city council. The city clerk
gave notice, at the Union Office, that he
would prepare an extra copy of the proceed,
ings of each meeting for that paper and ''fur-
nish" it when called for. He did prepare q
copy of the proceedings of the last meeting
but the Union did not send for it.
The city clerk is not an errand boy, and
cannot be made one.-nor will any reasona-
do the errands of the Uaion-especialy when
that paper constantly maligns and traduces
him.
We will state case exactly in point: In
1860 the republicans had the mayor, ma
Iority of the council and elected their paper
as the corporation newspaper. They also
elected one of their party to the Office of city
clerk, and, at a subsequent meeting, directed
him to furnish a copy of the pro-
oeedings of each meeting to the Argus, as we
r Jared to publish them free of charge
* prepared the copy, and said che
Vs. ready TO furnish it when called for, but
he would not be our errand boy. and if we
wanted the copy we must send for it." The
c,5y council iid'not interfere in the matter
and require him to be messenger boy, know.
ing very well that it was not part of his duties
and they could not compel him to do it. II
we could make any arrangement with the clerk
to bring the copy to US that was all well
enough-that was our business. lie would
and did carry the copy to the paper elected
by the city council as the corporation news
paper, but ne would not carry the copy to
any other paper.
That is exactly the case now. Tie 4rgu
has been unanimously elected corporatio
newspaper and is fairly entitled to. all the
advantages of the position. If the Union
wished to furnish its readers with the pro-
eeeding, it could las it said it would do) send
a reporter to the meetings and take mimi ties,
or it could copy the official proceedings from
she corporation newspaper. Itissan advant
age we are fairly entitled to, to have the first
publication of the official proceedings. and
the council inflicted pecuniary injury on u.
by directing a copy to be furnished for the
Union. 1t was exhibition of iberality, on
the part Of the council, towards the Union,
but We are not disposed to find fault about il
nor dove care a fig whether the clerk be-
comes messenger boy for the Union or moi

We understand that the team ''shyed" at a
little fresh earth on the bridge below Lime
hans Saloon and the driver jerked up and
broke the bits of one bride. The horses then
got the advantage of him and ran out of the
road capslzing the hack, killing one man and
badly injuring others. We should like to see
that old pair of bits, and we think the coroner
would do nothing less than his duty to make
official inquiry as to the sufficiency of the
harness and the action of the driver at the
time the accident occurred.

THE onion says the board of supervisors
for this county is ''a republican board" We
can't see it in that light The board is COM
posed of 16 members of whom were elected
by the democrats and by the republicans.
1t Is not a political board, however, as the re-
publicans generously showed by voting for a
democratic chairman. We hope that no
political questions will be presented to the
board and that the affairs of the county alone
will occupy the attention of the supervisors.
