. f.uIr% u WILMINGTON, Jan. 40
EDITOR HERALD Mr.. Samuel Town.
send's TRADE against jeff Davis in the
Gazette may be correct as far as it conveys
a warning against secession ideas In Della
ware, but the description Of the residence
Of MI. Davis and the surroundings is incor-
rect. Mr.. Townsend has evidently mistaken
the Governors mansion and the Capital
Square for that of the President Of the late
Confederacy. Mr.. Davis residence was Sit
uated six squares distant, on what is know n
in Richmond as Leigh street, and the only
stream of water it overlooks Is one called
Butchers run, not large enough to float a
bark canoe. And even If he alludes to the
Governors mansion and the Capital grounds
he is incorrect in his statement, as there in
teryenes between them and James River the
most thicky built portions Of Richmond ,and
even admitting this was not so, Belle Island
is so far situated from the Capital grounds
that It would take field glass to disting ulsh
objects upon it from the capital.

may prevent the proposed action on the

hour indicated number of gentlemen who
have expressed desire to speak viii be de-
prived Of the privilege Of so doing. The
prospect is that the bill win pass but it
must be confessed the friends of the meas
ure are not altogether sanguinc, Of success.
Much more has been developed against It
than-was expected. The opposition comes
prominently from the strict Constitution
State Rights School Democrats. If on &C.

be reached tomorrow the probabilities are
that there will be session Saturday to
