Jefferson Davis.

Charles O'Connor, Esq, counsel
for jefferson Davis, arrived in town
to-day from a visit to his client at
Fortress Monroe. He finds Mr.. Da-
Wis health in nowisc improved since
his hist visit, and thinks If anything
he is physically a little weaker, though
his mental faculties continue with
their wonted freshness. From sun
rise to sunset he is allowed full free
dom inside the fort, going whittier
he chooses unattended, he being on
parole; but the returning of the pris-
oner to close confinement when the
sun goes down is what is now Affect
ing his condition more than aught
else. The nights being warm and
close, and, what is still worse, being
away from the society of his wife and
children, ut twilight he feels bitterly
this continued over-anxiety Of his
solitary confinement.
The reports of the congressional
committees regarding Mr.. Davis have
given no cause Of apprehension To
the counsel or client that the latter's
completely in the assassination Of
President Lincoln can be proved.
The visit was in no wise the result Of
that report. When, or whether Mr..
Davis will be tried at all, can at pres
ent be purely a matter Of speculation,
the authorities in no manner giving
the least hint. Mr.. Stanberry, the
new encouragement, will give his
attention to the various papers in the
case rs soon as he shall have ben q
little more conversant with the duties
of his Office ; and before the October
term OF the Virginia United States
district court, the several legal all
visers of the government will hold q
consultation with reference to tho

those | have embodied into the form
herewith handed you, i suggest that
you publish it for the benefit of such
as may approve it. If it shall be
adopted generallyin any.neighborhood,
without material alterations, l think
the contentment of the laborers and
harmony between them and the pro-
prietors will be greatly promoted by
such uniformity.
IF our planters generally, could
agree upon some contract which would
be acceptable to the laborers, the better
course would be-to have the forms
printed. By this means, the contracts
would soon become uniform throughout
large districts, and have no doubt all
parties interested would be more con-
tented, ,asthe Very diversity of contracts
frequently produces discomfort,
