c. c. Clay, who has become sick He is
not suffering from any particular disease, but
is laboring under general physical prostra-
tion or debility John Mitchell is morose and
gloomy. He makes no attempt to converse.
He smokes silently, and scowls fiercely upon
his guard. jeff Davis thrives on his fare
He is becoming robust. He is disposed to
open communication with the guards. though
no notice is taken of his overtures. DR.. Craven
has become the recipient of his meel schaum.
Davis Low smokes an ordinary bciar root
given him by DR.. Craven. Remorse for his
missdoings, or anxiety for the retrlt ntion in
store for him seem alike foreign to the re-

Beauregard A rain.

The man wLo bombarded Fort Sumter,
and who made during the war so many vio-
lent speeches against the United States Gov
ernment, charging it with the most diabol-
ical intentions and crimes, has lately had the
assurance to settle quietly in the city of New
Orleans, as if he had done nothing within
the past four years to forfeit the protection
Of the flag. He was included in the terms
of Johnston's surrender, and may be pro-
tected thereby but if this be so it viii be a
matter for profound regret. Amongst some
papers and personal effects lately captured
in Florida is private telegram from this
same Beauregard, addressed to rebel Con
gresham advising the passage Of lill for
the murder Of all Union prisoners taken af-
ter January, 1868. Surely some sort of
process against this man is within reach of
our Government, and we hope it will soon
be brought 10 bear upon him.

The rise in cotton and the immense influx
Of money to pay for il, had caused such a
