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.
