MISS, July S, 1881. !
To Mr.. Finlay s.. Collins:
DEAR SIR: 1 have received yours
of the 4th inst. and thank you for
the kind expressions it contained.
The evil influences to which you
refer as causing the bitterness felt
towards Southern men, it may be
fairly expected, will give way to
the sober sense of the people. II
they shall, like yourself. detect
sordid motives for which stimulants
are administered, I will not. Like
the telegram you cite ia regard
to the attempted assassination
of the President, I can say that
III am thankful the assassin
was not Southern man, but I re.
greet that he is an American. The
crime is black enough in itself, but
1t has a deeper dye from the mer.
cenary motive which seems tC
have prompted 1t. I sincerely trust
the President may recover and thai
the startling event will arouse the
people to the consideration of q
remedy for the decentralization
which the wild hunt after Office Ii
creating.
am very respectfully yours,
(6igned) JEFFERSON DAVIS.
