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

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.

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.

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. ?

A queer tale of love comes to us from
Dulutb, Miuu. 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.
Nkw Laws or tiik Statu.?The county
commissioners, in auditing tho accounts
of trial justices, are new required to make
them exhibit with tho. hill nt costs all the
original papers in each case in which said
com* niivo accrued, ana cncy ?r? torDiddcn

Any person has a right, before paying any
costs in a trial justice's court, to demand
and receive an itemized account of such
costs; and, if it is not furnished, lu is nut
compelled to pay. This itemized account
is to bo receipted by the trial justice when
the costs arc paid*
It is lawful for mechanics, also, when
property is loft with them for repair, to sell
the same at auction, after the expiration of
one year from the time when such property
shnjl have been repaired, and the same shall
bo sold by any trial justice of the county
in which th" wort is done, after advertising
the sale for ten days at three of the most
conspicuous places in his township. Out
of the proceeds the mechanic shall bo paid
for his work, after costs and commissions
arc deducted, and the balance if any, is to
bo paid into the ofliec of the clerk of the i
court, subject to the owner's order.
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. "I aui perfectly
willing," she retorted ; "but it is just sixteen
thousand years since you were here before,
and you left without paying; settle the
old score, and I will trust you on the new."
