Wo will suppose, then, that tho President is guilty of conduct which, while it docs not mike him obnoxious to an impeachment, is stili highly njurious to the counlry, and should be reformed' and the professed object of these, papera is to ef .f ct this reformation. Tho question iben antes aud u questim of vital importance-is the course pursued by these papers tho one likely to effooi tho proposed ebj.ct ? L? it sueb MS ordinary pru dence and discretion would dictate? What is the ease ? "You see a man doing wrong-you believe that his ceuiso is iiighly injurious lo himself and ihe C 'untry-r-you desire to turn him from tho er ror of his way-and wba't course do you adopt? What is the coursa that a wiso mau would ado?.t ? a this cuse, if ho truly and honestly desired to romedy Ihe evil ? Ile would gu to thc mun alono, or, if a personal interview was not practicable, he would io some primate way appeal to th's man,'s i good sousa and good feeling; in a frunk, kind and respectful insnner, point out to him the errors of his course, and tho reusons for altering it.-* This he would be careful to do in such a wny as not to excite the erring man's passions or p'?yu diues, because it is known to all who have escaped 1 the nursery, that you have no influence with a man after you have excited his displeasure and prejudices.

Mr. Dlvis will be induced by vituperation to change hist curso? Wc fear that theso gentlemen ai o putting themselves in an awkward position be fore thc world. The jincha ?table public will bc apt to conclude that they arc sadly deficient in ' ihe iioccss.'.rj' sagacity to accomplish their end. if that end bo tho public goo l : or tbat the means used constitute really tho end in view-namely, the denunciation of thc President That Mr. Davis has made appointments cf in competent tnen to office, wu do not at all-deny : but it may bo that be bid bo better tuan to -put in the place, and it is not surely expected tl at ho .will create Generals if there uro none in the coun try, or admitting that be had Lotter men, them wo stiy ibat no ono supposes Mr. Davis to be infalli ble-and donuneiaiioa will hardly mike Um so. Wo now make boid to express tho opinion that Mr. Davis has adiuiuisicred the Government with great aud signal ability^ wo eveu presumo to doubt if any of bis dcfuuiers could bar? conduct ed it with moro wisdom. Ho . entered. upon his office with an empty treasury', without a soldier or a ship, with everj- port in his Govercmont blockaded, without guns or ammunition, without i shoes or clothing, or medicino, ur proper fond for his army. Aud in this statu of preparation, ho found himself engaged in a war of extermina tion with ono of the most powerful, unscrupulous, i blood-thirsty nations on euria. He has fought tbo.cnemy two years and a bali; bo has now a va liant and veteran aruiy, fully equipped and able to meet the enemy upon any field; bo has erodit i in Europe; wheo be asked for hf leen million Kng 1 lis h capitalists subscribed 75 million dollars ; he 1 hu already upon the high teas four war steamers, and before January .viii havo throe times that number. His Irlands may proudly ask : Are these tho indica ti JU.S of a wea?, aud imbecile Chief Mag istral? If wc look to Europe, vbero wo may expect un Impartial judgment, whatdo we hear? It was barely two months ago that L.?rd Campbell Spoke of President Davis kl thc House of Lords, iu tcru,s which would have been a high eulogy upon ?ny living mun. Such is tho cammoo Opinion of Mr. .Davis in Europe, as expressed by the Press, holli of England and France. But the most sprious consideration it tho fact that this deuunciatiou of thc President by tho Press Is doing our country au incalculable injury. We have shown that this denunciation cannot re form the errors of the President, bulls laying tho j axo at- tho root of our* strougtb. There is ono j thing, and but one.thiug, thatcau-couquer us, and ' that is d intenti JU among ourtelvet. So long as we remain a united people, we have nothing to fear; wo can fight the enemy weeessfuily for a genera tion'. But the effect of these continuai assaults by newspapers upon tho President, is calculated to uncottl tho public mind, J ad to beget distrust and want of confidence'in the Government This leads to doubts und.fears of our'abiiity to conteud with ! tho enemy, and finally to despair on tho part of ' out peopio-and thou mbmittion.

Dui if Co Prcidionl U thu.; gullly, tho Curstitu tiou, we believe, points out thc mode in aliie'tr-be s'raL bc dealt with. If, then, -theso gentlemen iiavo ovidonoe of Mr. Davis' Built, ?et them give luioTination, ned let. bim' bo impeached and tried before the constituted authority. No man in this country is beyond inc reach of thc lawfttndwe pledge ourselves that our*, feeble uid shall out bo a-itbbeld in bringing Mr. Da-vis* io ths bsr of jus tice, and m.iking him answorabl? for his crimes( whenever he is properly'indieted. Wo presume, howevor, that ibero is uo enc who seriously be'i.ercs that the President ha? made himself liabie to an impoanhm nt ; but it maj be said that his offoncoit, while they do not warrant an) impeachment, are yo' ?f such a ;*ri ous charactor as to demMidj. sou." notice-that they are injurious to the eoun'ry and ought tn be reformed. TLis may or mny not he true:'but let us ndmitfor a moment .it? truth, and then see huw^ir this fact invy justify the coursa of Mr_ Davis' assailants. ? Wo will ?Uppum, then, that the President is guilty of conduct which, while it docs not m?kc him obnoxious to .in impeachment, is stilt highly njurious to the country, and should be reformed i and the professed cbjeet of these, papers is to ef .f ci this reformation. Tho question ibeu arhes aud u question of vital importance-is tbe course pursued by liieso pap ors tho one likely to effoot the proposed ebj.-ct ? L< it such ns oidinury pru dence and discretion would dictate? What is tbe cafe ? You see a man doing wrong-you believe that bis couiso is bichlv injurious to himself and the C 'untry-^you desire to turn him from the er ror 01 his way-and wba'i course do you adopt? What is tbe coursa that a wise man would adopt <n this case, if he truly and honestly desired to rom?dy the ovil ? He would go to tho man alono, or, if a personal interview wu.? not practicable, he would io some primate way appeal to this maia's good souse and good feeling; in a frank, kind |_ and respectful manner, point out to him tho errors of his course, and tho reasons for altering it.-r This he would be careful to do in such a wny as not to excite the erring man's passions or p'??ju dioes, because it is known to all who have escaped the nursery, that you have no influeneo with a man after you have excited his dipploasure and prejudices. This statement must be self-evident to every enc. How does it apply to tue c*?o we are considering-President Davi?r and his assail ants? What course are thc/ pursuing, ahd-with what likelihood of doing good to tho eoun'ry? They undertake to reform tho errors of tbs Pr?s ident. How? By private and friendly remon strance ? By fr.<nl:. kind and respectful appeals ibrbug'i the press? N-Uber-anything ei.-e ou the contrary. Fierce, bitter, unmeasured denun ciation is tbe moana they adopt to refortut he Pres ident. Injustice, imbecility, obstinacy, want of uraje. uni wont of intellect, are tfc? mildest terms they apply to bim. Now wo would seriously ask, do editors pursu g this course," really expect to effect any good by this denunciation? Do tb;-y thin", thu; Mr.' Divis will be induced by vituperation to change his tcurso? Wc fe.ir that tbeso gentlemen aio putting themselves in an awkward position be fore thc world. Thc jinehaiitable public will bc apt io conelude that they ure sadly deficient in the nuccis.'.ry sagacity to accomplish their end. if that end bo tho public goo l : or that the-steans used constitute really tho end in view-namely, the denunciation of tbe President. TUat Mr. Davis has made appoinimesTts cf in competent men to office, wu do not at all-deny : but it may ba '.hat be lixil uo bttter Mian to J>ut in the place, and it is not surely expected tl s.t bo will create Generals if there arc none in thc coun try, or admitting that be bad belier uicu, than wo sjy that no ono supposes Mr. Davis to bo infalli ble-and donuneiaiioa will hardly ai ike ld ia so. Wo now make boid to express tho opinion that Mr. Davis has administered the Government vtitb great and sigual ab-lity? wo eveu presumo to doubt if any of bis defuuiors could bai e conduct ed it with moro wisdom. Ho . entered. upon his oflieo with an empty trea.iury, without a soldier or a ship, with every port in his Government blockaded, without guns or ammunition, without shoes or clothing, or medicino, or proper fond for bis urtny. Aud iu this stalo of preparation, he found hiniself engaged in a war bf extermina tion with ono of the most powerful, unscrupulous, blood-thirsty nations on earth. He hos fought thocnemy two years and a half; bo has now a va liant and veteran aruiy, fully equipped and able to meet the enemy upon any field; bo hos crodit iii Europe; when beasi.ed foriifieenmillion Eng lish capitalists subscribed 75 million dollars; he hos already upon the high seas four war sleamors, and before January will havo tbrto times that number. His mend:? may proudly ask : Are these tho indieiitions of a weals, and iuiboeilo Chief Alag istraro? If wc look to Europe, v,hero wo may expect an Lnpartialjudgmenl, wba'.do we .'tear? Itwasbarely two months ago that Lord Campbell spjke of President Davis in thc House of Lords, iu terms which would have been a high eulogy upon ?nv living mun. Buch i? tho common opinion of Mr. Davis in Europe, as expressed by the Press, both of Bnglund and France. But the most sprious consideration is Ibo fae? | that this denunciation of thc President by tho Press ls doing our country au iac.leuiabio injury. We have shown that this denunciation cannot re form the errors of the President, but is laying tho axo at- tho root of our" struugth. There is ono thing, and but one-thing, that cauxouquer us, and that is dissension among ourselves. Bo long as we remain a united people, we havo nothing to fear; wo oan fight the enemy we'oessfuily for a genera tion. But the effect of these continuai assaults by newspapers upon tho President, is calculated to unrettl tho public mind, r^nd to b?get distrust and ?3 ' Correspondence ul th'? Ad ver ti e r.
