Movements or Jeff. Davis-He n Not
10 Reside Upon the Niagara Selects

His Trip 90 the West or Canada fox
Good Of His Health, &c.
CHIFFON, CANADA WEST, June As my
dispatch informed you, JEFF. Davis left Nj.
agara on the morning OF the Sd for Toronto
While on the Niagara Mr.. Davis took q few
quiet strolls along the stream In company
with Mason. He avoided observation from a
wish to be let alone, and not made the object
Of any attentions or demonstration. Davis
has really made this trip to the West for
recreation, Of which he very much stands
in need, for he looks wretchedly. Some
people think he cannot live, that his ner-
vous system has received too great shock.
The Toronto people, who are thoroughly
filled with southern sympathy, would make
much Of Mr.. Davis, but he has the good
sense TO avoid their attentions as far as he
can do so with civility.
The southerners living in Toronto have
created good deal Of bitter feeling to-
ward he United States, saying that the
Government of that country desired to kill
him. First in rank among these is Jubal
Early, late lieutenant-ge general in the Con-
fcderate States army, who has written a
book giving an account of his operations
in the Shenandoah valley. Early speaks
slightingly of Sheridan, saying that the lat
ter is "no general that he had Al, 900 men
against his (Early's) 5000 only; and that
if Sheridan had been anything of a general
he would have overpowered his enemy
sooner than he did. So overpowering was
Sheridan's force, says Early, that ito use
his own words) it "fairly ran over" his
two weak divisions. Early will not even
speak to an American of the North.
The other southerners in Toronto are
Mason, large, massive, stern-looking
man; Hallam, an ex-major Of the Con-
federate States army, who lives on Church
street, and has made Mr.. Davis his guest ;
and few other persons, including General
Winder.

Speech Of Governor Orr. OF South

Speech of Governor Orr, OF South
Carolina.
AUGUSTA, June 7.-Governor Orr to-day
addressed the citizens Of Anderson dis
trict, S. C. He earnestly insisted upon
the acceptance of the plan of reconstruc-
ton now proposed as the only means of
preventing the administration of the affairs
of the country from passing into the hands
exclusively of the ignorant, and conse-
auently the barbarian aand tyrant, and
as the only hope of making this country
even tolerabe. lie showed from the
census of 1860 the great preponderance OF
colored over white voters in the State,
and the utter inability of the whites to
defeat convention or protect themselves.
Whenever an issue is made with the CO.
lored people, there are 10000 colored yo-
tiers in the State, and only 10000 whites.
1t is true, perhaps, there are not now
as MANY colored men as in 1860, but it is
sure the proportionate decrease has been
greater with the whites than the blacks
since the commencement of the late war.
Governor Orr insisted upon the cultivation
Of the most cordial relations between the
two races and the formation of no alliance
with the two great political parties of the
nation.

was grateful for this manifestation of kind,
ness, but regretted that his public engage.
ments compelled him to decline the de.
sired sojourn for day, as business required
his immediate return to Washington.
The large concourse at the hotel re-
ceived the party with repeated cheers,
and the President, having been called for,
made few remarks, in which he said he
had tried to discharge his duty faithfully.
He had made conscientious conviction his
courage, the public good his aim, and the
Constitution his guide; and by these he
would stand. He expressed his gratitude
for this reception, and the hope that when
he came here again it would be under
more favorable circumstances-with the
country whole, and peace and prosperity
everywhere prevailing. He was heartily
cheered.
Secretary Seward, in response to calls,
merely said that they had heard from the
President exactly what he would say
were he to make speech.
Postmaster General Randall was re-
quired to speak, and he briefly admonished
all to forget the strife Of the past and to
unite for the future in all the country's
prosperity.
AS the party remained an hour in Pc
tersburg, they were handsomely enter
tanned with supper, and were the recipi-
ents of marked attention.
The party will remain at Richmond to-
night, and leave for Washington tomorrow
