Jer Davis, First sweetheart.

There is living in Detroit, says an ex-
change, venerable and respected lady,
who, to those who knew her, is the her
oine of strange story. She may be
seen almost any day on the streets, hur-
rying from her tour of shopping back
to her pleasant little home, where, over
her needle and thread, her fancies have
full play and memory is supreme. She
is woman of rare intellect and great
cultivation, charming conversational
ist and an exemplary Christian. She
has been twice married and twice a
widow, and now, as time is drawing
his silver tracings through her hair,
she moves alOnel The loved ones OF
the past are gone. Her interests and
her affections drew her towards the
world of spirits. She was, in her young
days, the betrothed of Jefferson Davis.
Why they never married is not known.
She treasures toe dearly the casket of
the past to open it to other eyes. 1t
[ may be that to her near and dear ones
she tells the story. / am not among
them, and do not know it. 1t is GER
tain, however, whatever may have pre-
vented the consummatiOn of their early
plans, she and the rebel President have
never lost their regard for each other.
They still exchange letters and watch
over each others welfare. Two such
lives, running in such different chan
nels, and yet having the sympathy of
heart and interest, must have much to
attract each other. His has been life
of splendid achievements and ignoble
failures-full of excitement and thrill
ing episodes. Hers, having its own vi
cissitudes, borne like woman, has
been quiet and unobtrusive, but perhaps
as wonderful as his. When l pass her
on the street, or see her in church, l
feel like running to her and asking for
her story. l know it would be interest
ing. The sweetheart of jefferson Da-
Wis! Who would not like to go back of
his plottings for power and his struggles
in behalf of treason, and learn some
thing more of his boyhOOd, and how he
acted when In 1--we

The ChoIera at NASHVILLE.

No city of America perhaps has ever
suffered from any scourge or epidemic
as Nashville has suffered from the re-
cent visitation of cholera. The mortal
ity has been greater than ever was
known before In this country for the
same time. We are happy however to
believe that the pestilence is now rapid
~ abating. 1t reached its highest point
last Friday, when the death list num-
bered nearly or quite hundred, taking
In the suburbs. Saturday it COM
menced TO abate, Sunday there were 80
deaths, Monday 81. Private dispatches
and rumors report the disease still
abating Tuesday and Wednesday, but
the recent change i'm mail trains has de-
prived us of later information than the
above. Gallatin has suffered almost or
quite equal to Nashville according to
population, while Lebanon has not es-
capped. These towns are nearly depopu-
lated by the flight of their citizens to
the country. The pestilence is spread
ing on towards the north and branching
east and west, but nowhere has it been
so bad as ut Nashvillea and Gallatin. We
hope and believe it will not visit us.
LATER.
1t was unoilicially announced over the
wires yesterday evening that the deaths
from cholera in Nashville on Tuesday
were thirty-fve. Capt. Townsend in
formed us just before going to press that
the dispstches yesterday evening indi-
Gated the continued abatement of the
disease. No definite results can be as
certained.
