The Capture OF JEFF. Davis.

The old adage ''give a lie three days
start and truth will never overtake it,"
may be applied to the accounts we have
received of the capture of JEFF. DAVIS.
Nine-tenths Of the people will believe TO
their dying day that the rebel President
was attempting to escape in hoops and
petticoats. Major HUDSON, who was pre-
sent at his capture, was lionized at the
Chicago FAIR, and requested to relate to
the audience the particulars of that import
ant event. He acceded to the request,
and gave the following account:
JEFF. Davis was captured on the 10th of May,
while he was in bed in his tent. His little
camp was completely surrounded. Mrs. Davis
came out of the tent and asked him (Major
Hudson) if he would give her time to dress her
self, and he replied he would give her any rea-
sonable time to do so. He then posted the
guard, and told them to allow no one to pass
out. After some time the 1st Wisconsin came
up, and being mistaken for the enemy, some
skirmishing took place. In short time Mr.
Davis put on Mrs Davis travelling cloak, with
aportion of it pulled over his head, and came
out. He had no hoops on laughter nor no
bonnet. Renewed laughter. He had o
bucket over his arm, and wanted to go 10 the
we'll to get water. He was accompanied by q
negro servant girl.
A person in the crowd asked how Major
HUDSON discovered that it was DAVIS !?
Major HUDSON said the disguise was so
palpable that there was no difficulty in
making the discovery.

The Railroad Monopoly.

The Chicago Republican publishes q
sensible article, telling Chicago and the
railroads that now the war is over, and
the Mississippi opened, it is about time to
stop the exorbitances by which they have
been getting rich at the expense of the
people of the Northwest. 1t gives time
ly warning to railroad companies for their
injustice in taking advantage of the peo-
pie of the Northwest during the blockade
Of the Mississippi by the war. 1t says that
shippers to the seaboard have experienced
great annoyance in getting freight forward.
The restoration of commerce between the
North and South will enable the North
west, or large portion of it, to send its
products to the seaboard via the Missis.
sippi to New Orleans, and from thence to
New York and Boston at much less cost
and on shorter time than it did to ship
through Chicago via rail last season.

The Fort Smelling Story about Jeff
Davis.

A correspondent fthe New York World
puts an extinguieber on the silly story
printed in the Press short time ago
about JEFF DAVIS:
To the Editor of the World:
Allow me the privilege of correcting the
statement of one j. A. Dickson, furnished to
the st. Paul Press by Captain T. NJ. Newsor.
quartermaster at Fort Smelling, who vouches
tor the reliability of the author. and which was
copied into your issue of this date. wherein
Jefferson Davis is charged with having been
placed under arrest after the battle of Buena
Vista in Mexico, by General Wool of being
chased by the guard, whom he resisted, until
ne was Knocked down. secured, &C., &C.
Inc simple TACT is, Jefferson Davis, who COM
manded the First Mississippi regiment, in the
Mexican war, was severely wounded at the
battle OF Buena Vista, from the effects of which
he was Frustrated for many months afterward,
and was not able to walk for eighteen months
or TWO years subsequently without the aid Of
crutch.

was present on the field when he was wound.
ed, and had occasion to see him daily during
his confinement In private hospital where he
was Frustrated on his back for some three
months, and so painful was his wound that
when he returned with bis regiment to the
United States, he had to be conveyed In an
ambulance from Saltillo, near where the battle
OF Buena Vista took place, to Point Isabel,
where he took passage to New Orleans.

The President has issued two proclama-
tons, the one removing all restrictions
upon trade with the South, except articles
contraband Of war, and removing liabili-
ties and disquali6cations consequent upon
the rebellion in Tennessee.
The other is reconstruction proclama-
ton for Mississippi, appointing Judge VIM.
SHARKEY, Provisional Governor, but in all
other respects the language is identical
with the North Carolina proclamation.
No person is allowed to participate in the
election of members of the State Conven-
ton unless he is "voter, qualified as pre-
scribed by the constitution and laws of the
State of Mississippi in force Immediately
before the 9th of January, 1861, the date
of the so-called ordinance of secession. +"
President JOHNSON has deliberately marked
out policy of reconstruction, that prom
ises the happiest results, and we do not
believe he will be induced to modify it,
even if the radical storm should beat about
his head with ten-fold fury. He will not
lend himself to the mad schemes of fanat-
les, but will allow the people of the States
to manage their own affairs in their own
way, under the constitution, without in
reference or annoyance. No man who
has the welfare of the country at heart,
will refuse to endorse President JoHNsoN's
policy.

SKILLRD LABOR FROM ENGLAND.-The
English papers are noting the heavy emil
grafton from the mining districts of that
country to this; and recognizing it as Of

London Times, Sc to be frequent occur

At What Price Soldiers Can Retain
Their Arms.

Major G. P. KINGSLEY, of the Ordnance
Department, has announced, in accordance
with the decision Of the War Department,

charged on the muster rolls for them as

coutrements Sc 90

who are about to be mustered out of SER
vice, will gladly avail themselves of this
opportunity Of obtaining substantial tro-
ply Of their service.

A Marriage.
From tie Hartford Times.

From tie Hartford Times.
TIE youngest daughter Of Mrs. Harriet
Beecher Stowe was married at st. Johns
Church EpiscopaD this morning, to wealthy
Episcopal clergyman from Boston. The church
was crowded with the friends of the family
the ladies in full costume, and the gentlemen
likewise. The bride was beautifully attired in
white silk, with a veil of illusion and wreath
of orange flowers. Her father and mother
stood up with her; Mrs. Stowe being dressed
in black silk with white bugles, and wearing a
white lace hat trimmed with green feathers,
and white lace shawl. A rich carpet was
laid from the carriage steps across the side
walks to the church door, and young men ar
rayed in bridal favors acted as ushers. The
ceremony was performed by Right Rev. Bish-
OF Clark, OF Rhode Island, assisted by Rev.
Mr.. Doane, Rector of st. Johns.
A reception was held by Mrs. Stowe. at her
mansion, south of Hawthorne street. from -
o'clock to in the afternoon.

Gen. Logan's Speech.

The speech of Gen. LOGAN, which we
printed yesterday, the Herald says was
listened to with marked attention, and
every word that he uttered carefully
weighed. Instead of following the theory
marked out in the resolutions, which were
expressly worded to dictate policy on re-
construction and negro suffrage to Presi-
dent JOHNSON, he boldly announced the
Presidents real policy on those points. He
refuted the theories of the radicals, and
was applauded to the encore at every step.
The reception which he receive n~oved
conclusively that he spoke the Sentiments
Of the people. They paid the closest at
tention to every word that Gen. LOGAN
uttered. His speech, therefore, represents
the sentiments of the meeting. In short,
the politicians attempted to glorify them
selves and dictate policy to President
JOHNSON under the shadow of our military
heroes. But it resulted in their being COM
pletely foiled in the latter-totally eclipsed
and lost sight of in the enthusiasm for the
Generals. President Johnson policy was
fully endorsed in spite of the politicians,
and their radical resolves ignored. Never
were schemes Of politicians so disastrously
spoiled, or the policy of Chief Magis-
trate so emphatically approved. The
managers of the demonstration saw their
notifying defeat and the dilemma in
which they had placed themselves. The
meeting was called under the pretence of
endorsing President JOHNSON, but with the
real intention of debating policy to him.
In this they were most decidedly defeated.

THE resolutions of the New York bank off.
GERS concerning the assassination of Presi-
dent Lincoln, and expressing the sense of
those officers of the national loss, as well as
their coincidence with the family of the de.
ceased, have been engrossed on parchment, in
India ink, and sent to Mrs. Lincoln. The en-
crossing was deliberately and neatly done,
partly in German text letters; and the parch-
ment was mounted on black velvet roll with
silver acorns. 1t was enclosed in an ebony
box, ornamented with silver. At the corners
were inverted torches; while on the lid there
were representations in silver of immortelges
and On plate in the centre these words /:
I'm memoriam. Abraham Lincoln, April Is,
1865. Resolutions of Bank Officers of the
City of New York" The style was in every
respect elegant and appropriate.

Tennessee.

The Senate bill regulating the suffrage
in Tennessee, to which we referred few
days ago, was, on the Sd inst amended in
the House, by substituting for the provis-
ion excluding for six years all who had
aided or abetted the rebellion, section
excluding only those who were excluded
from the rights of citizenship by the Presi-
dents amnesty proclamation. The more
important ex-rebels who are finally to be
allowed to vote are excluded for fifteen
and others for five years from exercising
the right of suffrage.

Gen. John e. Teurtcilottc.

Col. JOHN E. TouRTELLoTrr, Of the
Fourth Minnesota, has received COM
mission of Brevet Brigadier General of
Volunteers, for special gallsntry at Ala
toona last year. This well-merited recog-
milton of the services of meritorious Off
Ger, will be extremely gratifying to all his
friends in the army, as we'll as at home.
Additional value will be attached to this
compliment from the fact that it came
through the special recommendation OF
Major General SHERMAN, and not through
the intercession of politicians.

Capt. Fisk,s Expedition.

We learn from Mr.. BENJAMIN THOMPSON
that Capt. FISK writes in the most encour-
aging terms Of the prospects of his expe-
dition. The number who contemplate
joining him far exceeds his anticipations.
Among the prominent military men who
propose to make the trip is Gen. THOMAS
F. MEAeHER. Capt. FISK will arrive here
on the 22d inst, and the expedition will
start between the 18th and Goth of July.

BREcKINRDGE.-Iti is reported that this
incarnate rebel has succeeded in making
his escape in vessel from the coast Of
Florida. It will be remembered that he
parted company with DAVIS a few days
prior to the latter's capture, since which
time nothing has been heard from him.
The wife of BRECKENRIDGE arrived in Gin
cinnati last week, from Washington, by
permission of the President, on her way to
her relatives in Kentucky. The report of
BRRoKINR1DeE's escape is affirmed by
dispatch from Kentucky, which states that
his friends have information of his arrival
in Cuba.

The Winona Republican has come out
manfully in support of President Johnson's
North Carolina Proclamation. 1t says:
The course of the Administration seems to
have been laid ont with reference to the subject
in hand, deliberately and firmly. In his North
Carolina proclamation, President johnson has
declared himself nnequivocally in favor of the
constitutional method of dealing with the cleo
tive franchise x Much "a we miot
wish to extend the elective franchise to all
classes of persons. we believe that the doctrine
upon which President johnson bases his North
Carolina proclamation is the only tenable one.

In the absence of the Bishop, little dis
position was manifested to engage in the
work of legislation; and by common con-
sent speeches were made short, and the
essential business dispatched before dark.
At night, the Missionary Sermon was
preached by the Rev. E. R. WELLEs, after
which sundry short addresses was deliver
ed, mostly by Missionaries on the border.
The Convention was characterized by
the greatest harmony and concert of feel
ing and action; and but for the sadness
created by the sickness and absence of
the Bishop, would have been one of the
happiest Conventions ever held in the
Diocese. The prospects Of the church
were never so good as at the present time.
