Mr.. Dayis's Case.

1t seems that we are never to get at the
truth in regard to the trial or the release
Of Mr.. DAVIS. One day we are informed,
upon what is supposed to be good author-
~, that he is to be released on bail, and
the next day that he is to be left to the
tender mercies of Congress, because the
President is determined not to assume any
responsibility in the case. The last rumor
is telegraphed to the New York World
from Washington. 1t intimates that there
are "strong probabilities that Mr.. DAVIS
may be tried at the May term of the United
States District Court to be held in Rich
mond." This rumor carries with it inter-
nal evidence that it is not reliable; for
there is to be no May term of that court.
Congress last year provided that the
sessions should be in June and November.

The South and the Connec ticut Elec-
tons.
The New York Times gave, the day the
Connecticut elections were held, the fol-
lowing reason for desiring the success OF
the Radical candidates:
Everything indicates disposition on
the part of the South TO make the best of
a bad business, and, by frankly accepting
the terms offered by Congress, hasten and
consummate the restoration of the Union.
4 Democratic victory in Connecticut, no
matter how small the majority, might mis-
lead them into change of purpose. If it
should have that effect, it would be a
national calamity"
The southern people are not so easily
deceived. They intend to try to have
members of Congress in Washington next
winter to assist the libcral-mindcd men,
bers from the North of every party in
lifting the burden Of oppression which
now bears down these unfortunate States.
The negro question must give place to
other questions, and upon these other
questions the southern and western States
are sure to be united, because our inte-
rests and theirs are the same.
