JEFF DAVIS AS A LOVER.
An Old Letter Shows That He Was as

Rlchview, ILL.,, Sept. 13.-The following
is a copy of a letter written by Lieut..
Jeff Davis while stationed in the west to
Sarah K. Taylor, Prairie du Chem. Miss
Taylor was a daughter of Gen. Zachary
Taylor The letter was confscated, among
other papers, by Private spilman Willis
of the Thirty-third Illinois Regiment,
while stationed in New Orleans. Mr. Will

tons. Dreams, my dear Sarah, we will
agree, are our weakest thoughts, and yet
by many dreams have l been lately al

the sleeping imagination painted you not
