A dispatch from Fortress Monroe, dated
on the 2lst, says: .Hat
"Three Methodist ministers, Rev. Drs.
Duncan, Edwards and Burroughs, the latter
formerly of Philadelphia, but now located in
Richmond, arrived from there this morning,
on q visit to Davis. They also entered the
fortress, and had an interview and break
tasted with Davis. In the course Of CONVEX
sation dropped by these gentlemen, after
leaving the fort, it was learned that since
the recent changes and additions made to
the former quarters Of Davis in Carroll Hall
and the removal Of Mrs. Davis and her sister
into the rooms Iarranged for the reception
Of his family, he has become remarkably
cheerful, his health has very much improved,
and he speaks very confidently Of being re-
leased. Relatives and friends from all parts
of the South are constantly arriving, enter.
ing the fort at pleasure, and departing with.
out being scarcely observed, and now that
his rooms in Carroll Hall have been fitted up
and the accommodations for his visitors i'm.
proved, it is presumed their numbers will be
greatly increased.
The Adams Express Company are in daily
receipt of numerous packages, presents to
Davis from sympathizing friends, Of every
description that will induce to his comfort
or minister to his pleasure or appetite. Coal
and wood for the use Of his family are fur,
nished ad lbitum to his servants, and should
his confinement be heightened into spring it
is not likely he will suffer from any of the
discomforts or deprivations, or any Of the
usual concomitants Of prison life."

PATRIOTISM.

s. B. PHNSEY, in his Barnstable Mass

"On Tuesday last the elections took place"
y "How we'll the battle was fought
let the muster-roll tell" "The hearts Of all
Union-loving men beat high, and Democrats
fought to the last ballot"
That "the hearts Of oil Union-loving men
beat high" is not surprising to us, but it
beats the devil to learn from PHNSEYs Pa
triot that Democrats fought to the last bal
lot" when he was in this city worming COM
mission for the collectorship Of Barnstable
ont of the Government. He returns to Cape
God and proclaims, with the assurance of one
in action, "How well the battle was fought
let the muster-roll tell r. Now, it so happens
that the name Of 49, B. PHISSEY" will not
be found upon the '.musterrolp' sf those who
voted at the last election in Massachusetts,,

THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN (Washington)
offers to prove in court that Fernando Wood,
when lately at the capital, declared himself
supporter Of the pending constitutional
amendment We are confident that this is o
mistake. Mr.. Wood is understood to favor
prompt and final settlement of all the is
sues growing out Of or connected with our
late civil war, but we think not on the basis
Of the amendment Y Tribune.
We don't care how confident" the Tri.
bune is, nor what "Mr. Woop is understood
to favor" That is not the question; nor is il
important whether WooD favors or opposes
the amendment" We insist upon our
original declaration, not that it is important
but because it is true, and FERNANDO shall
not wriggle out Of ii.

A Reminiscenee Of the New York
Riots.

The following incident is related by the
New York correspondent Of the Springfield
Republican:
speaking Of politics reminds me Of an
incident of the riots of 1868, related to me
by an eyewitness. You remember the Trib-
une Office had been threatened and was de-
Tended by armed men. The afternoon that
Gov. Seymour addressed the mob from the
steps of the Astor House, one of the defend
ers of the Tribune-a dead shot-stood in
the editorial room window with telescopic
rife aimed at Seymour's head. II the un-
scrupulous demagogue had said anything to
excite the mob, the intention of the riaeman
was to shoot him dead on the spot, and he
would have done it beyond question. For
tunately for Seymour, he sought only to con-
ciliate the insurgents, and SO escaped with
his life. 1t is not probable the crafty politi-
clan ever knew how near he came to having
ball lodged in his skull, and it may be that
his good genius stepped between him and his
natural disposition on that memorable and
melancholy day"
1t is difficult to understand how the bold
riheman in the Tribune office could, at that
distance from the Astor House, have hearG
Gov. SEYMOUR distinctly enough to judge
whether he deserved death for the words he
uttered.

John H. Surratt.

A special dispatch to the New York Herald
of yesterday, dated Rome, Nov. lS, states
that JOHN H. SURRArr, the alleged accom-
plice in the murder of President LINCOLN,
was discovered serving in the Papal Zouaves
under the name OF JOHN WATSON. He was
arrested upon demand Of Gen. KING, but
afterwards escaped. He ran the guard, and
leaped over precipice, and escaped into
italian territory" As the Herald is the only
paper that had the news, it may turn out like
their "meteoric display" nothing but moon
shine

OFFICIAL JoKEs.-Go Sanders and
Chief Justice Kellogg, Of Nebraska, were in
Galesburg, Illinois, on Sunday week, and
in the morning attended Rev. Mr. Beecher's
church. The Free Press says that, as the
sermon was upon the late elections and of q
radical tone, the Judge, being conservative,
was not well pleased, while the Governor
was delighted. The Judge afterward turned
the joke, however, by saying that while he
was somewhat uneasy, Governor Sanders left
the church in perfect rage-for Mr..
Beecher prayed fervently for the Governors
Of all the States, and did not so much as no
tice the Governors Of Territories
