Hon. Jefferson Davis has written
a letter 20 Judge Lyons, of Virginia,
vindicating himself from Blaine's
onslaught. Mr.. Davis acted IN
wisely, for what he can say will not
convince single-man of his enc
mics, and his friends who know the
facts needed not his deposition to
strengthen their belief in the mat
ter. His letter can only give wider
notoriety to the nasty aspersions
Of Blaine and keep up the flame
and stink that was beginning to
subside. But then Mr.. Davis was
the man assailed and he has a right
to be heard in his own defense.
