JEFF. Davis no Prophet.

It has been the custom of leading braggado-
clio Shareholders to instruct and impress upon
the minds of the people of the South that the
Northern people were an inferior race The
lordly STAKEHOLDER, domineering over his ser
wants, fourishing bis bowie knife and revolver,
and chivalric. He was supported from the
national treasury, and held the principal Offices.
As the Northern laborers filed the cofer
of the Government, the Southerners denounced
them at an carly day as ''pedars and peds-
gogues;" and still later, as "m1dsills and greasy
mechanics" The North was COOL calculating
and but reluctantly entered against the rebell-
ion. JEFF Davis, king of the Confederacy,
with other leaders, still continued their argu.
ments Of superiority, and considered it plainly
demonstrated that one ''Cbiv." was equal to
five "mudsills :" and the North could be easily
whipped into submission to their dictation.
When the fight had just commenced, Davis
prophesied to his people In speech in Ala
bams, in 1861, be said:
Your border States will gladly come into
the Southern Contederacy within sixty days,
Is we will be your only friends. England will
recognize Us, and glorious future is before Us.
The grass will grow in the Northern cities
where the pavements have been worn by the
trade OF commerce. We will carry war where
it is easy 10 advance, where food for the sword
and torch await the armies iu the densely pop
Mated cities
The greasy mechanic and mudsill" has
proved more than equal in the contest with the
"buy chivs.," and by sword and fire have
washed away, by Southern blood. the differen
ces and distinctions of the race, that were at
tempted to be made. And TO the falsity of
Jefs prophecy. Never border State come
TO the Confederacy, and England dare not rec.
ognize the attempted Government of the boast
full oligarchy, through fear of the "mudsills" OF
the North. The "gorius future" spoken of,
has come, and the arch traitor will experience
his at the end of the haDgman's rope. He and
his fellow assassinatiousts rquire crown OF
king Cotton" upon their heads in order that
they cannot butt out their brains, and that
they may see and feel the glorious future -
Our "densely populated cities" have escaped
the sword and TORCH and our trade in com
merce" Increased almost beyond human calcu-
lation.
