THE SOUTHERN PRISONS.

AS Dr.. CRAVEN reports him, Mr.. DAVIS
vindcates himself completely from all &C
cusations of cruelty and inhumanity to
prisoners. He represents the difficulties
in the way of feeding the army as well as
the prisoners in the south, and his persist
ent efforts to effect an exchange of pri-
soners, which the Federal Government as
persistently rejected. Prisoners of war in
all countries and all ages have had cause
of complaint. The Confederates at Look
out and other northern prisons were nearly
starved, though full rations, he doubts not,
were ordered for them. Mr.. DAVIS ordered
the prisoners to have the same rations with
the guard. The policy of the north in OPP
posing the exchange may have been pru-
dent, though inhuman; but he protests that
he shall not be held responsible for evils
which he could not avert, and to escape
from which almost any concessions had
been offered.

Mr.. DAVIS speaks kindly and anxiously.
He does not think he will die out, and be-
lieves that he may be useful as laborer.
He attributes the present irregularities "
of the negro to the meddling abolitionists
and philanthropists, and fears that he may

Speaker COlfax.

The New York Times thus discourses
upon the speech lately made in Indiana by
Speaker Colfax:
So far us our opportunities Of studying
Southern sentiment extend, we discover
nothing TO warrant the opinions expressed
by Mr. Colfax In his yipdication of Congress.
II is possible, no doubt, hers and there to
find in the South newspaper or noisy
politician full of the nonsensical disloyalty
which forms the staples of Vallandgham's
harangues in Ohio. But viewing the
Southern press as whole, and the public
men Of the South as class, we trace spirit
which has no affinity to that of which Mr..
Colfax speaks. There is q degree of mod
Grafton which should silence slander, and a
declared readiness to abide by the situation
and its results which should satisfy every
national Union man. There are complaints
about the course of Congress; there are al
legations affecting the good faith Of the
General Government in its treatment Of the
South; there are illusions to the principles
Of the Constitution and the rights II confers
upon the individual States; but these are
presented temperately, and in manner to
which none can fairly object.
Better evidence upon this point cannot be
had than that which has been furnished in
connection with the choice of delegates to
the Philadelphia Convention. The list up to
this time received from the South is not with.
out flaw or blemish. II embraces some names
that will not add weight to the proceedings.
But as q whole II is eminently creditable TO
the good sense and moderation Of the South.
ern people. The delegates are for the most
part men Of character and standing in their
respective localities, and there are reasons
for believing that they will enter the Vonven-
tion impressed with the conviction that they
will best serve the South by acting discreet
ly and in a spirit of forbearance and con-
ciliation. Everywhere determination ap-
pears to have been felt TO leave demagogues
at home, and to send prudent conservative
delegates. In some cases delegates have de-
cined the appointment on the ground that
their presence might lead to misspprehen-
sion; Governor Brown, Of Georgia, being Of

GEN. SWIFT AT HOME.

In Roxbury, (Mass.) on Monday evening,
the citizens Of that city in favor Of the policy
of the Administration assembled at Institute
Hall to choose delegates to the State Con-
vention which was holden at Faneuil Hall
yesterday afternoon for the purpose Of elect
ing delegates to the National Union Con-
vention which is to assemble at Philadelphia
on the l4th inst. After the delegates were
announced, the chairman read the following
dispatch from Gen. JOHN L. SWIFT, who was
en- route to Roxbury, where his family resides:
NEw YoRK, August o.
Tell my fsllow-citissns Of Ro1bury that regret
my inability to be present with them tonight. Say
to them for me, that q the American soldier fol-
lowed the old flag for tho sake of his country and
by the authority Of the Constitution, to put down
rebellion In the South by the bullet, so the Amsri
citizen must rally to-day In the same spirit and
for the same purpose, 10 put down the same radical
ism OF the North by ballot, country, flag, and
liberty will perish In this Republic.

We have no doubt that Gen. SWIFT spoke
at Faneuil Hall yesterday, and made such
notice Of the recent speech Of that notorious
demagogue and political Blondin-HEsRY
Wnsoy-as his low, billinsgate harangue,
delivered in temple dedicated to religion,
"for the instruction of colored preachers and

DR.. DOstie's speech-A True and
Correct Report.

We have been furnished, by gentleman
Of unquestionable respectability, o truthful
abstract of the remarks Of DIR. A. p. Dostie,
at the mass meeting on Friday evening last
(27th ult.) This speech was delivered from
the platform in front Of Mechanics Insti.
tute, to the large assemblage Of negroes on
Phillippa street, and must not, therefore,
be confounded with the still more violent
and incendiary address made by him, about
an hour subsequent from the City Hall
steps, to colored crowd which followed the
band ofmusic from the Institute. The citi-
zen to whom we are indebted for the report,
which is appended, is willing to take OATH II
necessary, that it contains nothing but the
tr,.th.

THE DUTY OF PATRIOTS.

We have endeavored for. several months
past, by various methods Of illustration, to
convince our readers that the time has not
yet come for patriotic citizens to lspse back
into the ruts and sloughs of old-fashioned
partisanship; that the Republic is not yet
saved, in complete historical sense; that it
is saved with . proviso.saved SO far as the
army was concerned; that II Congress had
mot turned its back upon American princi
pies, set up golden calf for worship, and
denied the faith Of LINCOLN and SKwARD Of
1861, and, indeed, Of all the Cabinet and all
sensible statesmen everywhere, IL would be
completely saved, politically, morally and
historically. Congress has gone back upon
itself; gone back upon our national history;
smelt the aesh pots Of Egypt sfar of, and,
TO use Western phrase, skedaddled, de-
serted, ran away. ~.
Congress, according TO the common under
standing Of our people, represents the people.
1t has betrayed the people and the Republic.
II goes for monarchizing the Constitution by
amendment and the forms Of its admins
tration. 1t goes for obliterating all State
rights. That everybody knows who compre-
hends the import Of its recent measures. By
its recreancy it has imposed new and an
extraordinary duty upon the Administration.
Something must be done; we are in danger
again. What ought that something to be 7
President LISooLs's method Of action in
1861 was to call upon the people, without
party or partisan distinctions, to come to the
rescue. President JOHNSON; has not made
such q call in form. But the Philadelphia
Convention call means precisely that thing.
1t means that the country is in danger and
that the Government needs an army Of civil
ians, who are willing to accept the past as
enacted and disposed Of matter, to come up
to the rescue and to.assist in the work Of
completing the restoration of the Union.
This brings us to the substance Of this en-
tire matter. In consequence Of the recrean.
cy Of Congress to cardinal principles-ro
THE GREAT AND NOW PARAMOUNT PUBLIC INTER,

ly necessary to reorganize political parties
SO far as to bring the conservative element
Of the country together under the folds Of
the national flag. The Philadelphia Union
Convention is called for that object 1t il
simply common way in this ,apuntry ol
bringing public opinion to bear upon great
public interest.
President JOHNSON has an oath, which he
respects, registered in Heaven, to restore the
broken relations Of the American Union II
he can. The Secretary Of State, the Secretary
Of the Treasury, and the Secretary Of War
and the Secretary Of the Navy, who stood
by President LINCOLN to his death, stand as
firmly by him in this undertaking. They
stand by him because he stands by the coun
try. We call upon patriotic men every
where to do the same.
