sure thing that they will bring him.
He may as well give himself up ct once;
for, although be may battle pursuit fol
awhile, yet bis final capture IS only Q
question of time. jeff Davis, the leader
of the rebellion, and one of the greatest
villains that ever disgraced the earth, has
at last been captured. with his mother,
his family. an number of his devoted
followers. Thus the whole breed may be
aunihilated at one stroke. The follow
ing is the official announcement of the
important event -

A later despatch says that JEFF. was
captured in bis wife's clothes. Irwin

boundary of Georgia, in which region the
Andersonville bone-yard is located; and
he was evidently making for the Okefe.

Florida, where his great but more noble
aad honorable prototyps, Billy Bowlegs.
found refuge SO long.
They have got JEFF, and will doubtless
carry him securely to Washington. They
will try him on the charge of completely
in. the murder of Lincoln; if that fails,
they have sure thing on him for treason.
We hear many persons "wonder what
thy will do with him." There is no
one who doubts what ought to be done
with him, and, if Andy johnson takes
the responsibility, what yN be done with
him. 1t can be briefly summed up in
the words used upon memorable occa-
sion of old-"Orucify him! Cruelty him"
Or, we should prefer to express it in
more modern. forcible and poetical Ian
gusge, in words intended for his especial
