The St Louis Times, of Friday, publishes the following letter from Mr. Jefferson Davis, addressed to Col. \V. F. Melleu, a former Confederate officer, touching certain matters in Gen. Sherman's book: M km Pit is, Tonn., May 27. Dk.vu Sir: 1'lease accept my thanks for your kind letter of 10th instant, and the accompanying copy of a St. Louis paper containing an extract from the forthcoming work of Gen. \Y. T. Sherman My absence j delayed the receipt of your letter and this reply to it. The malice that seeks to revive the nefariously concocted and long since exploded slauder which connected my name with the nssassiuatiou of 1 'resident Lincoln is quite in character with the uiau who so conducted his invasion of the South as to render "Sherman's bummers" the synonym of pillage, arson cruelty to the helpness, and murder of uon-combatauts, and who closed his career of arson with a false accusation against (leu. Hampton in regard to the burning of Columbia, S. C. Jiut the question arises, why did General Sherman at the date of his reported eouveylion of 1'resident Lihco/n ? ~ (leu Sherman never was- personally acquaiutcd with uic, and from thoso who knew me, either iu the L'uitod States army or in civil life, surely learned uolhing to justify such suspicion.* In the conduct of the war between the States, despite of many baseless accusations, wejean proudly point to a record which shows a strict adherence to the usages of war between civilized nations. On what then did the suspicion of General Sherman r.?vt. V \V.W il. ...,l il..l . VV . I t?M IV ' ?v vituv, VII VHU rule of judging others by oneself, he ascribed to me the murderous and malicious trails of bis own nature'{ .He reports a conversation with President Lincoln, from which is to be inferred a desire to have authority for departing from the course which as a soldier he must have known was usual and proper towards prisoners of war. Did lie hope to get instructions for the slaughter of the confederacy's President and Cabinet officers, as set forth in the orders of Col. Pahlgreon, when ho made his raid against Uieliuiond ! if the goodnatured, cliarnctcrastio reply of President Lincoln taught hiiutha^murder was uot the approved measure, it seems to have failed to inspire him with thegonerosity and chivalry which ever adorns the character of the true soldier ami gontlemau. Among tlio articles of the surrender of General J. E. Johnson, there was one prohibiting military expeditions in the country east of the ('attahoochio river. That was the best consideration obtained for the surrender of armies, arms, munitions and manufactories in that section, and it was in violation of that article that the brigade of cavalry, by which 1 was captured, was scouring the country and freely taking from the unprotected people tlie little which was left to tlieni for their future subsistence. I From the statement of General Siieniwrj; ne icani mat a story lint! boon tohl to dW> ctlect that 1 was carrying in wagons inilliomi of specie to the South, ami therefore tiro left to conclude, was made that expedition in violation of the agreement of surrender. Though the story of the millions of specie is now admitted hy (jcncral Sherman to have been a fiction, tlie admission is made in sueli terms as would lead the reader to suppose I had been travelling with wagon transportation, and had a few thousand dollars of specie in a valise, llut neither supposition would be true. 1 bad recently joined the wagon train, and was about to leave it when captured ; my only baggage was a valise, which was packed on a mule and if contained no specie. The few thousand dollars of specie were in a pair of .saddle-bags belonging to Secretary Keagan. Whether that money ever readied the I'uitetl States Treasury .Mr lleagan. from whom I it was taken, may be able to learn after lie I shall have assumed his functions as lloprc- J sentative in the I nitial States Congress. Humid the Course of the commanding J general of the army, in attempting at this! late day to resuscitate a defunct slander against the I'resident ofthe late Confederacy, and to which slander not even suborned witnesses could give the semblance of truth, he taken as the exponent ofthe feelings of the army, that arm of the general government would seem to be ill-suited to the task, of late so largely assigned to it, of preserving civil order and of restoring harmony among the people of the I'nited States. For public J considerations it is to he hoped that the in eradicablc malignity of Sherman may be an exception to the prevailing sentiment* ul'the lfnitcd States Army. Again thanking you for your friendly consideration, I am very truly yours. .JKL'TKUSOX DAVIS. Tiik K.nkucy ok tiik Southkhn I'kot'l.K.?A vast amount of nonsense is written about the dislike of the white population of the South to labor, and a great deal of gratuitous counsel is given to the citizens of the reconstructed States, the burden of which is that if they wish to prosper they must go into the fields and do their own work. The Chicago Tribune, iu an exceed ingly Belt'complacent article on this subject, gravely says that iu the cotton States "no white mnu is willing to accept social degradation by working iu the Held," whey it is a wcll-kuowu tact that the most productive regions of several ot" the cotton States are those in which the negro population is small, and the greater portion of the labor employed upon the cotton crops is performed by whites. Of course the effects of the si-.ve system cannot be overcome iu a day, and there is a class of men who, having been accustomed to living without labor, exhibit shiftlossness and want ok energy under the new conditions wbich>govern their life.? 1 ?ut the {Southern people as a mass have shown great pluck and?energy in, adapting themselves to their chahged circumstancn)? the best evidence of which is found hi the rapid recuperation of their industries tyid business interest in those States which have relieved themselves from the plundering rule of the carpet-baggers. If the large landholders prefer to employ themselves in superintending hired laborers instead of going into the field and doing work which they can hire negroes to do lor twenty dollars a month ? r loss, we do not see that they are doing differently from what is done by people who can afford it all over the wjffd ; or why they should bo lectured for conducting their own business in their own way.?X. J. Sun. _ .?. -- llow tuk Jury Stood.?A New York reporter made exhaustive efforts to iret the exact status of the several members of the Boccber-Tiltou jury and believes that ho has ascertained bow each juror has stood on the issue of Bcccher's guilt during iheir pro true ted consultation. It is possible that he has made oue or two immaterial mistakes in classifying the jurors, but the following is gisen as the way they stood last evening. It will be seen that no two of them are supposed to agree exactly, and that their differences take the widest possible range. Without assuming to indorse the report, we give it as it lias reached us: 1. Not guilty?believed so from the start. 2. Not guilty, but must marry the woman. d. Not guilty, but must do so no more. I. Guilty, but entitled to another chance. 5. Bccchcr innocent, but Mrs. Tilton guilty. G. Not guilty, but should stop preaching. 7. Guilty, without qualifications. ?

Two young men loved a maiden fair, of that breezy paradise. She. smiled on both, and, as has happened since, the days of Helen, there was a bloody feud. They had conflicts concerning her until the uuug was getting monotonous, when youth number one suggested an adjustment of 'heir differences upon a commercial basis, lfo offered to take 61<M) and forever thereafter hold his peace. Number two scorned to accept the proposition. The other offered to give this amount for peaceable possession, which was also refused with scorn. Bids were made until the amount of ?1(10 was offered I y the sigh ill** swain number one, in the shape of his note at ninety days, which the party of the second part took, and two loving aauls were united. But when the note became due, and the former lover demanded its liquidation, the fond husband refused payment on the plea of "no value received," and suit has been brought to recovof the amount. The husband sets up the plea that the girl was not worth a tinker's condemnation, and for further answer states that if the plaintiff will take the fair creature off his hands he will gladly pay the note and throw in his lovely bride. So the ease stands at this writing.

A party of wits unco stepped atn tavern. When the feast was over, one of the members called in the hostess. ' Angcliijuc," lie said, "I am going to give you a lesson in astronomy. I lave you not heard cf the great 1'lutniiic year, when every thing must return to its former condition ? Know, then, that in sixteen thousand years we shall be here again on the same hour. Will you give us credit till then?" The hostess, however, had her reply.
