 Thc letter from Hon. 4. F.. Davis who always knows what he is talking about. will put flea in the ear of our yirtuous con- temporary on Cortez Street.

Had he known his own candidates record on th:s extra pay business, as well as upon the issuance oT wagon road bonds, etc, he would no doubt haze been more careful. We fear however, that our friend MT. Davis has suffered himself to be slightly "hum- bugged" in seriously supPosing the Demo erai's correspondent 10 be a genuine Re publican. An ass. It will be remembered, once pus on lions skin, and when he ran among ;he other cattle they were all ter ribiy frightened, unul he opened his mouth 10 speak, when his voice betrayed him.
