respondent of the Baltimore Gazette, writ
ing from Hampton, Jan. 18th, says:
We hear occasionally some news of Mr..
Davis, and some lately which is authentic
lie has twice been very sick wit3Iin the past
six weeks. suffering from erysipelas, aud at
one time was at the point of death, so near
to it that he gave to his physician many fire.
well messages to his wife and family, and
expressed wish that the world might know
through him (the physician) how pure and
dsintercsted his motives had been in all that
he had undertaken. This same physician
has been removed from his place, aud order
ed elsewhere. 1t is presumed that he show.
ed too much sympathy for his suffering
patient. The guard over Mr.. Davis-always
very heavy-has been recently doubled, and
the officer, who remains in the same room
with him, is not allowed to speak, read,
smoke or sleep during the twenty -fo1r hours
Of his watch.
The name of General Miles is not among
the number of general officers lately mus
tered out, and it appears that he will be re-
tained TO take charge Of Mr.. Davis, since he
SO literally carries out his instructions from
the Secretary Cf War.

slender, graceful. with a very white skin, a
good deaf Of color. large, linred blue eyes,
and an amazing head Of light hair, which
she wears in eight massive braids, wound
round and round her head, forming = mar
nicent Gia,iem Ci ;r;,iir, such as very few
women could match from their own rcsour-
ces. She is also said to be highly accom-
plshcd. She speaks all the principal tongues
Of Europe, and is particularly fond of the
English language, which she speaks as per-
tect!y as though it were her native dialect.
She is an excellent musician. paints and
draws extremely we'll, and is Que OF the bold
est and most skiIFul hurscwomcn of Austria.
She possesses a stud Of very valuable horses,
and Il pack of splendid hounds; and she is
said tC take the warmcst interest in the racing
and hunting Of all Europe, and to know by
heart the names Of the horses Of the turf.
