GEN. WRIGHT, of Chicago, was a
classmate of Jefferson Davis at West
Point, and has been almost lifelong friend
of his, having kept up correspondence
with him, which, rs may be supposed
ceased during tho time of the civil war,
hut was subsequently resumed. lie
has in a recent interview stated
that there was no truth what
ever in the story that Mr.. Davis was
captured in female attire, and that the
only possible foundation for it was that
he was then wearing a shawl, as the
morning was chilly and his health
infrm. On being asked whether Mr.. Da-
Wis had spoken to him on the subject OF
his work on the Confederacy, General
Wright answered, "Not a word," and sub
seauently added: awe could never agree
in politics, and years ago they were mu-
tually tabooed by US" Mr.. Davis has,
however, expressed in the presence OF his
friend his satisfaction at the abolition OF
slavery, and also stated emphatically that
the course recently pursued by President
Garfield in relation to the New York col
lectorship should be sustained, supporting
this assertion BIZ an anecdote which dis
tinctly shows his opinions of the justice
of such action. Before the commence
ment of the civil war, President Buchanan
consulted Mr.. Davis, then Senator from
Mississippi, about a federal appointment
in his state, and he replied that it was
the right of the Executive to nominate
whoever he thought fit, and, If the nomi-
nee was morally and intellectually compe-
tent to fill the position for which he had
been selected, it was the duty of the Sen
ate to confirm his nomination. General
Wright says that Davis was universe
favorite at West Point, remarkably cour
ageous and very tenacious of opinion, anc
also expresses his regard for his old schoo
fellow by saying, "I remember him as my
brave, generous room. mate and compan
ion In arms at West Point, and as ont
who has passed through the most remark
able series of vicIssitudes that has eVel
fallen to the lot of man, and yet, fo
nearly fifteen years, through 1t all, hal
never ceased to call me friend"
