DiD JTFFFERSON DAvIs 8.tvA AN n)tLw JoifNsuNs JIE?-Had Prosi dent Johnson a special reason for sparing the life of Jefferson Davis and dolaying his trial till popular excitement had in a measuro sub sided? This question the Atlanta Uonstitutin in a recent issue puts and undertakes to answer, adducing documents copied from the original in Presi(len t Johnson's possession. The first is a letter to the President from Humphrey Marshall, dated April 26, 18(6, and inclosing tho statmeont i roi Alexander G. Green wood, of Now Orleans, then on gaged in the service of a Now York firn, but during the war a colonel in the Confoderate army. He was not a frietid of Mr. Davis', consider ing that ho had been unfairly treat e(d by him during the war. This statemuent wa to the efrect that a coispirncy had been entered into at Bristol, Tennessee, in 1861, to hang Mr. Johnson on his return fromn Washington, the peopl being infuriated because o(if his great Union speech mado in the Senate, but that President Davis, hearing of the danger that threatened, warned Greenwood of it, and ordered him to run the train on to Jonesborough, thus baffling the lynchers. In inclosing this Mr. Marshall wrote to Mr. Johnson : "I know, wero I in your place and such facts were connected with me or a crisis in my life, and he who had so served me were situated as Davis is, I should like to know the facts. I write this, then, more in kindness to you than to your State prisoner." A RELC OF T1m1 PAsT .-Few indi vi(itals of the prosent generation can conceive the immonse impulso given to business by the original in, volition of Whitnoy's cotton gin, and yet it is comparatively a few years sinco it vas generally introduced in this country. It will be remembered as a Georgia invention, patented about tihe close of the eighteenth century, but the principle of the gin saw was in use in a rude form on many ia Southern farm before the patent was issued. It was ab.iout the year 1790) that a relative of M. B. Wallace, Esq., an esteemed citi zen of Mecklenburg county, living about six miles south of Charlotte, went to Camden, S. C., whore he saw one of these old fashioned cot ton gins in operation. On his re - turn home ho constructed a saw gin, the saws being made of ham, moured sheet iron, hardened to the p)ropeOr condition. A part of this old gin is still on Mr. Wallace's farm, anid is troasuredi by him as a relic of the dim and shadowy past. Ukarlotto Obscrve)r.
