The same features that lave given to the

pose to so fill its

An ANECDorE OF MAcREADY.-One OF
the very few anecdotes relating to the life
of Nacready, the actor, is the following
printed in the London Orchestra: Halt
century ago, while playing in Birning-
ham. England, AIacready passed burn
ing house i'll u poor neighborhood.
while the smoke and flames assembled,
says the narrator, "a cry arose that there
was child asleep in one of the upper sto-
ries, but no one tried to save it. The
representative of C0rioianlas. Firgiaius
and R0iIa instantly dotted his coat, which
he gave III charge to a bystander,
and rushing into the burning dwelling
returned in few moments with the al
most suftocated infant. Nobody knew
him, and the event would probably have
been forever concealed had not the hol-
der of the coat disappeared with it. An
act so noble succeeded by theft so dis
graceful found its way into the BirmlnS-
ham newspapers; and while the whole
town was ringing with the praise Of the
rescuer and calling for his name. public
e1ecration was directed against the mean
thief. While curiosity WIS at its height.
the thief entered y pawnbroker's in the
town for the purpose Of pledgiDg the
garment. Happily the person to whom
it was rendered, having seen an account
of the fire, examined the coat infinitely.
and discovering something to fix the own
ersnip, detained the posessor OF the sto-
len property; and thus the good Samari-
tan stood revealed"

The steamship Alabama from Glasgow

says she came directly into Us, striking us
little on the port beam and little abaft OF
the bark's fore rigging. The time from the
collision till the bark sank could not have
been more than five minutes. We lowered
the boats 10 search for the survivors and
threw overheard buoys. Three men were
picked up. The boat continued in the vici-
nifty of the wreck two and half hours but
discovered nothing more of the crew. We
steamed slowly around the wreck till m
of the 9TH but nothing of the wreck being
n sight we proceeded on our voyage.

JEFF DAVIS,
A High Estimate OF Southern EN-
GuFance.

A High Estimate OF Southern En-.
RICHMOND, IVA, Aug. 18.-Jeff Davis
addressed the Southern Historical Conven-
ton at the White Sulphur Springs to-day.
In speaking of the late war he said: We
have b ,en more cheated than conquered by
the declarations of the Federal President,
Congress and Generals; for there never
could have been surrender, had We anti
cipated what followed, and we would to-day
have been free.
He still had hope of the South, because
whatever the men might be, he never yet
had seen reconstructed women, and while
the men of the day are mightier than the
principles for which they had struggled,
they yet hoped the children who succeeded
them would perpetuate them and redeem
all we lost.
I Mr.. Davis remarks contained no senti-
ment of hostility to the Federal Govern
ment.
A resolution was offered by Admiral
Semmes that His Excellency President
Grant be requested to permit the Secretary
of this society to examine all the papers
and archives OF the government captured by
the Federal forces from the Confederates
during the war, and to make copies of such
of them as he may think fit. TIE resolu-
ton was adopted.
