Once on time traveller journeying to q
far country, fell In company with another
traveller by the way. Finding, ON mutual
explanation, that they were destined to the
same place, they agreed to proceed together
After some days Of progress, the first men

rockets of the dying man of all the money
and articles of value he could find. Dis
covering, however, that the body was not
quite cold, in order to make sure OF his
booty, he thrust his dagger into the breast
of his companion and left him for dead IL
so happened, however, that the point OF the
dagger did not touch vital part but that
the wound caused a dow of blood which re.
stored the yenous circulation and revived
the man, SO that he soon recovered and was
able to proceed on his journey. Not long
afterwards he CHANGED to meet with his form

APPLICATION.
The political morality of the domi-
nant party which practices upon the
maxim that "the end justiies the
MEANS" is illustrated by this fable.
Legislators who devise measures
really for the public good have regard
for the means, as well as for the end.
They do not seek to establish reforms
upon the subverted rights of any por-
ton Of the community, and in viola
ton of the rules of justice and COM
mon sense.
But the fable may be considered as
illustrating more particularly the prov
idential supervision Of human af
fairs which frequently overrules the
desires of wicked men for wise pnr-
poses-which brings good out of evil,
and which renders those who seek on
ly to crafty their own bad purposes,
and guilty passions, the executors of
their own punishment Thus Hannah
was hung upon the gallows which he
had erected for another. And thus
may we not hope that the measures de-
vised by the intolerant northern major
ity for the punishment of the South
will be the ultimate means of enhanc-
ing her power in the councils of the
nation, and precipitating their own
overthrow.

| EFFORT TO SUBoRN WITNESSES
AGAINST Mr.. JEFFERSON DAvIs.-It is
anrfng the incarceration of Wirz and
Major Winder in the Capital Prison,
they occupied adjoining cells, and en-
joyed facilities of communication, one
to the other by word or writing,
through an aperture not observed,
doubtless by the jailor No one was
permitted to see either, unless by
special privilege from the Secretary of
War. On the night previous to the ex-
ecution of Wirz three men entered his
cell, of course by permission of Stan
ton, and proposed to him, that
if he would agree to implicate
Mr.. Davis in the alleged conspiracy,
to starve the Northern prisoners con
fined at Andersonville, his life would
be spared. Wirz replied that he would
not save his own life by sacrificing
that of another innocent man. The
parties thereupon left the cell, and
Wirz Immediately communicated all
that transpired to Major Winder The
Major sometime after met Mrs. Davis
in New York, and revealed to her
what is here stated, backed it up by
an affidavit, which he gave her, and
which she now holds.
