Henry Winter Davis Letter.

The most mastery exposition of the recon
struction question, is the letter lately published
in the Missouri Democrat, written by the la
mented Henry Winter Davis in May last Ii is
as follows:
The future of the nation is summed up in the
restoration of political power to the States late
iy IN rebellion.
The Presidents only power over the question
rests 10 his right to refuse permission for any
convention or election 10 be held unless on terms
satisfactory TO him but that power is decisive.
Ii he refuses to permit any election or any con-
venIion to De held, things will await the solu-
ton of Congress.
Ii he permit the aggregate white population
of the South, qualltied To vote under the old
governments abrogated by the rebe lion, TO or
ganize State governments, that Installs the rev.
| olutionary faction in power 10 the States and
fills Congress with their representatives and sen
ators.
That is to place the sceptre in the hands from
which We have Just wrested the sword.
| If the President attempts TO discriminate the
| loyal from the disloyal, and exclude from vot-
| ing all who have given aid and comfort TO the
rebellion, mere handful of the population will
remain, wholly Incompetent to form or MAINTAIN
| d State government, and sure to be overwhelmed

election, which will restore power to the leaders
| of the rebellion. While II stands under the
protection of the United States, 1t will continue
AN odious oligarchy, disposing of the lives and
property of the great mass of their fellow cltl-
zens, without any responsibility, and controlling
the nationsl legislation by the people for whom
| they vote.
This result is unavoidable. The whole mass
of the population of the South has given aid
and comfort to ths rebellion. Inc war was
| made by the accession of the Union men to the
rebel faction. 1t is idle 10 talk of quiesceut
mass OF loyal men overborne oy violence. 1t
was the Union men who passed the ordinance
of secession in Virginia and who made it efec-
tual after it passed. In no State was the
| rebellion dangerous without the active aid oil
those opposed to secession.
| But the United States had no friends in the
rebel States against those States, and they haze
none to day.
| The Union men of the South preferred Un-
ien and peace to disunion; they deplored the
| outbreak of the war, but they never nesitated
| a moment which side to take. Ii there was to
be war, they were for their States and against
the United States. There was no respectable
number of Union men willing to aid the Uni
ted States in compelling submission to the Con
stitution, and there none nolc. I'LL submit
to force. Many are willing to acquiesce IN the
unavoida BILE. AL willing to govern the Uni
ted States again, since independence Is impossi
BILE; but all were also willing to aid the rebel
lion and not an assault and battery was com.
mitted for the United States from the Potomac
to the Gulf of Mexico.
The Union men Of the South did not merely
bow TO overbsaring force, but they hastened t

tbs HIGHEST MOUNTAIN PEAKS OF THE Usr-
TED STATEs.-There is much incorrect infor-
nation in the popul'r mind and in print as to
che height of the principal mountains of the
K pcky Mountain range and of the Sierra Ne

There is general tendency to ex,ggerarion

believe MIR. B1wies, in his volume vf =. Across

data yet ascertained. Sp aking of Mounts
Shasta of California, Hood of Oregon, and
Rainier and Adams in w ashingson Territory,
he says
'' There Is some rivalry among the neigh
bors OF these great snow peaks of the north
western United Sta es as to which is the
highest There are four or five of them from
eleven thousand to fifteen thousand feet each.
and the last one the Traveller bebolds seems so
him not only the highest but the most beam
rlful, so engrossing is the view. But the
most reliable measurements give Shasta the
palm at fourteen thousand four hundred .rd
forty feet, and, until within q year, made il
the highest mountain peak in the United
States. Last season, however, the expIors-
rions of the California Geological Survey
brought TO knowledge series of rare snov.
covered and granite peaks among the Slerra
Nevadas In Southern California and Nevada.
one or two of which, at least, mount higher
than Shasta, and, for the present at least,
may claim to be the highess land in the .a-
ton. One of these peaks was called Mount
ryndali, and Is about fourteen thousand Eve
hundred feet high; and another, the Mrv
highest, is named Mount Whitney, for the
head OF the Geological Survey of California.
