Jeff dal hang on a sour Apple Tree,
Wo have met with the suggestion
in a popular journal that Taff Davis
'be hanged on a gibbet made of the
wood of a "sour apple tree." This
would be a significant and coinciding
;finale to the career of the traitor Jeff.
that, in our opinion, would be felt
as a -lesson :more effectual than any
thing more novel that could be de.
wised. The people once inspired by
:the-sentiment of the song "we'll hang
Jeff. Davis on a sour apple tree," ask
nomore than to have the suggestion
now carried; into practice. Jeff has
been caught, Jeff -will be tried; and let
the fiat of the tribunal be to bang
the identical Jeff on a sour apple
tree. Ho it was who soured the sen
timent of the Southerners against us;
he it .was who soured the nation at
large With the bitterness of war, and
what more befitting death would it
be than, to hang bim on a sour apple
tree. Let us meet the leading traitors,
one mil all. with the utmost bitternc,sa
as far as justice will extend, and make
their end . symbols of sourness. To
live up to the letter and spirit of the
song in questiori, it would be equally
.appropriate to "drown General Lee
in the Chickahominy," who now
rests unmolested under the protection
or our soldiers, and is fed by
our Government. The Chickahom
iny would be a fit resting place for the
haughty chieftain who has slain many
a patriot near its banks. Lot the
traitors all, be . gathered in, and suffer
the death.that would by its typical
similarity, add,increased and prolon
ged disgrace to their names and deeds
of.villainy and perfidy.

„T F. SOLDIER'S RIGHT ARM.- In
more senses than one, the soldier's
musket is his right arm, and . we aro
glad to meet the proposition -that - he
be allowed to retain it when he is mus
tered eat. It requires no great amount
of 43entgirneut to perceive the relations
between the soldier and the musket he
has fought with, his trusted compan•
ion, night and day—almost his better
half. , The war being over, and the
sailer mustered out, it seems hard to
take it from him, and not permit him
to: carry it bome to be Its possessor,
the perpetual token of honor, and per-
haps the solace in his old ago, with
which to fight his battles O'er. Let
the veteran keep his musket, say we.
He has a clear title to it ; the govern•
merit can afford it.

A Washington dispatch says: The
demongtrative indignation of Jeff. Da•
vie on being placed on army rations
was the cause of his being placed in
irons.
Seven white men and one negro were
captured in Florida recently. All gave
fictitious names, but it is supposed the
traitor Breckinridgo is one of the num

The Vederar prisoners confined at
Taylor, - Tex.is, are allowed to escape

that when all the prisoners are gone
they will have nothing to" do, and can

[For the Globej
That "Sour Apple
Ho was a wise man who said he
oared not who made the laws of . a peo
ple if he made their songs. By the
national songs of a people and tho pa
triotic feelings they inspire, a fair es
timate may be made of their virtue
and.love of . country. How many wa
vering,' desp3nding hearts have caught
now inspirations of pstriotism from the
inspiring strains of the "Star Spangled
Banner," or the "White, Red and Blue,"
as sung by the fair daughters of liber
ty to cheer their brothers and lovers
as they went forth - to do battle for that
Government, for which their ancestors
suffered so much. Political demo..
goalies have embarrassed the Govern
ment at• every stop by factious oppo
sition in every form,- creating distrust
of our rulers among the people until
the misled and deceived masses hardly
knew who to trust or where to look
for safety. Whenever 'or wherever the
tho civil or military authorities laid
_a,
heavy aniTtiiir - ebiilii - TO - ith, or their
sneaking allies North, the howl of un
constitutional and tyrannical measures
resounding on all sides; and some
times it seemed as if treason's cause
should finally prevail,hut the voice of
the Poet touched the national heart
with • • •
“Rally round the flag, boys,
Bally once again,
Shouting tho battle cry of treadoni,”
and suddenly the voice of the copper•
bead was drowned in the mighty
chorus of
..The Dnioreforarer, hurrah, boys, hurrah!
Down with the traitors, and up with the stars,"
as a million voices took up the immor
tal refrain and as many hearts swore
eternal fidelity to its starry folds, as
they marshalled under it for the bloody
strife. With, what uncomplaining for
titudo under disappointment and dis
aster; with what heroic veto]; on many
a bloody battlefield; with what sublime
faith in the justness of their cause and
its ultimate success, these citizen sol
diers have followed the varying for
tunes of the old "Banner of Glory"
through defeat and victory to a most
glorious consummation of their highest
aims„and hopes! How well they have
made good their patriotic vows, let
their shouts attest, as the victorious
legions of the Republic march in tri .
umph through Richmond, "homeward
bound." And, now, as tho mighty
host of battle-tried veterans of Grant
and Sherman march in review before
their leaders and before the heads of
Departments, and in presence of the
Representatives of foreign Courts,
through the National Capitol, and hear
the acclamations of tens of thousands
of grateful people whom their valor
has rescued from destruction, they
may well look up to their torn flags
with emotions of pleasure. To them
as well as to us, "'tis no banner with 'a
strange device," but the emblem of the
national authority, the symb . ol of the
"powers that be," ordained and estab
lished of God, for the protection of the
weak, and the punishment of "evil
doers." As we believe in the flag and
the cause it represents, so •we believe
in tho war songs of a patriotic people.
They are part and parcel of our po•
litieal_ereed, they are the crystalized
sentiments of the people. We have
made the "Star Spangled Banner" to
wave in triumphrover the last strong
hold of treason,
'We hare rallied round the flag, boys,
And rallied once again;'
And now it only . remains. for' Andrew
Johnson to obey We Post's injunction
and
. "hang Jeff: Davis on labor applo tree.'

remain on board the steamer Clyde,
and ills supposed will'he sent South
this evening, as orders have been
sued by the War Dephrtmont, prohib

parting between Jeff Davis and his

an extremely affecting nature, (hiring
which the foeli figs of the onceam hi Lions
and: desperate, rebel leader were, corn•

the fortress, have been issued, and all

Jeffs Toggery.
On the morning of the 25th in the
presence of a number of distinguished
gentlemen, Colonel Pritchard, of the
Fourth Michigan Cavalry, presented
to the Secretary of War, the water
proof cloak and shawl wora,by Jeff. at
the time of his. capture. The cloak was
claimed by }Ars. Davis, after her hus
band was taken and was worn by her
during the voyage. The shawl, Col.
Pritchard said, was worn by Davis
as a hood, to conceal the masculine
appearance of his face. Under those
`articles the Rebel Chief wore a full
suit of drab, With his trowsers tucked
into a pair of cavalry boots. Colonel
Pritchard stated that for several days
after the capture, Davis seemed down
hearted, but that ho 'then becarne
quite buoyant: When ho was first
separated from his wife ho was much
affected, but finally became composed:
that Mrs. Davis from the first, showed
much indignation:and Was very sar
castic,. embarrasing the captors as
.much as possible Mrs. Clay was
also defiant.
The Secretary thanked Col. Pritch
ard for the activity ho had manifes
ted in his pursnit of tho arch traitor,
saying that the reward should be di
vided among the •mon 2ntitlod to it,
and a medal of honor given , to. each
ono who participated in the capture.
Jeff's Toggery will be forwarded
ed immediately to Chicago, for exhibi
tion at the Northwestern Sanitary
and Soldiers Home Fair.

THE GRAND REVIEW,
The Army of the Potomac in Line.
Moat Glorious Pageant in the National
Ristory.
Washington, May 23
Thousands of persons, including
many from other cities who have spe
cially come to see the pageant, lino
the sidewalk from the capitol to the
Executive Mansion, a distance of a
mile and a half, while the windows
and balconies are.erowded; including
the house-tops, which were occupied
by deeply interested spectators. All
business was suspended and there was
a general holiday.
The Capitol bears the • Motto, in
large letters, "The only national debt
we can never pay, is the debt 3VO owe
to the victorious soldiers." At the
North of the Capitol, at least two
thousand school girls wore assembled,
neatly dressed, and there was much.
pleaSant excitement - among them; in
pressing.forward to present flowers to
the. soldiers and sing patriotic songs.
The immense column moved in the
following order: Headquarters Army of
tho Potomac, Gen. Meade, command
ing; general Staff: Headquarters Squa
dron Ist:Massachusetts Cavalry, Capt.
Flint, commanding Major General
- Merritt, commanding, general Staff.
:Headquarters and escort 58th United
States Cavalry, Major General Custer,
commanding; This officer was voci
ferously cheered at numerous points
of the lino, and was somewhat encum
bered by wreaths and boquets, which
had been presented him. Other o'ffi,
cers were similarly greeted with
cheers and the waving of handkerr:
chiefs by ladies.
Next the 2d and Ist Cavalry Divi
sions, commanded by General Davis
and General Devins, the horse artille
ry brigade, the Provest Marshal Gel:l
-er:Ws brigade, and the engiolecr's
brigade. -The ; troops comprising
these bodies wore compoSed, in large
part, - from Now York, Conneeticift;
Ohio; NeW Jersey, Massachusetts and
Michigad„
The 9th Corps,; General Parke Com
manding; the Ist Division, command
ed by General Wilcox; the 3d Division,
General Griffin, and the divison by
General Curtin. These 'droops were
from Wiscobsin, Michigan, New York,
Pennsylvania, Ohip, Maryland, Massa
chugetts, Now joreiey, Rhode Island,
New Ilanipshil*TermOnt and Maine.
Next followed a division of the 19th
Army Corps, Brig. Gen. Dwight, inclu
ding an artillery brigade, the troops
bein,g Irani Maine,, New York, Ver
mont, Connecticut and Massachusetts.
The Fifth Corps, Gen. Griffin comman
ding. • The First division was com
manded by Gen. Chamberlain, the
SecOnd DiviSion . by Gen. Ayres, and
the Third Division by Gen. Crawford.
Those troops were composed of men
from New York, -Michigan, Massachu
setts, Maryland, Delaware and Missis
sippi.
Next came the 2d Corps, Gen: lltim
phries, commanding. The FirSt Di
vision was commanded by '''brevot
Brig. Gen. Inmsay, the Second by
Gen. Barclay, and the Third by Gen.
Mott. The troops were principally
from New York, Pennsylvania;Michi
gan, Now 'Hampshire, MassachusettS;
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Delaware,"Ohio,
West Virginia, Now Jersey, ,Con
necticut, Maine and Indiana.
The troops, as they moved along
Pennsylvania Avenue, presented a
grand appearance, all arms of the ser
vice being represented in full force.
The occasional insertion of it body
of artillery ,. servedto'relieve the same
ness and gave a fine effect. Looking
up Pennsylvania avenue there was a
continuous moving line as far: as the
eye "could reach of national, State, and
division; brigades. Although flags of
some of them were new, the stars of
gold glistening in the sun, and these
contrasted strongly with , the flags
borne in the proeession with the
names of the battle-fields where victo
rieS wore won:by s these horiies. The
(lags were draped with flowers. The
troops were all very cleanly dressed,
and their fine marching excited enthu,
siasm.
The Executive Mansion was draped
with flags and at various points wore
inscriptions, Atlanta, Stone • River,
South Mountain, Shiloh, Vicksburg,
Savannah, Richmond, Petersburg, and
Cold Harbor.
This stand was occupied by Presi
dent Johnson, members of the Cabin•
et, Generals Grant and Sherman, and
other, distinguished army officers. On
the left were members of the Depart
ments, and the Diplomatic Corps.
Tickets were provided for the purpose,
among which were Geo. Bancroft,
and the following named Governors of
States: Andrews and Curtin;
Gen. Custar rode a horse who was
restite, and at times unmanagablo.
When near the Treasury Department,
the horse madly dashed forward to
the head of the lines. Tho General
vainly attempted to cheek his courser,
at the %tilt° time. endeavoring to re
tain the wreath of flowers which had
been graccfnly placed upon him.' , In
tho flight tho General lost his ,hat.
lie finally conquered his. horse, end
regained his column = passing.by the
President's stand, he made a low bow,
and,was applauded by the multitude:
The troops occupied six hours to
review, ' from 9A. M. till 3P. M. The
review is' Spolen of as the greatest
which has ever.taken place on .this
continent. It was a grand affair, and
suggestive. of the trials and victories
of the Army of the Potomac.

review. A fresh crowd this morning
swelled the already large number of
strangers who have visited Washing.
ton, to witness the grand parade.
The tastefully decorated stands near
the Executive Mansion were again oc
cupied by President Johnson; Mem
bers of the Cabinet and Lieutenant
General Grant; together with disting
uished army and navy officers, chiefs.
of executive bureaus, the diplomatic
corps and families and others.
The vicinity of the reviewing point
was densely crewded over a larger area
than yesterday; this locality ing the
most attractive. The Army_ of the
Tennessee moved•from the Capitol at
9 A. it. proCeeding toward the Execti
tive Man f3io li. At the head of the col
umn rode Major General Sherman,
whowas victoriously cheered all along
the ine: The greeting of this hero
was in the highest degree of enthusi
asm.
_He had been presented with
two large-wreaths of flowers; one of
which had been placed arourfd his
horse's neck, the othor being upon
his own shoulder. Major nerd
Sher Man was accoinpanied by Maj. Gen.
ticiward, next followed Major Gon.
Logan and staff and escort. Ho yes
terday assumed command of this army.
Major General Logan appeared at the
bead of the command. This corps is
composed of troops from Alichgan„
Missouri, Indiana, Minnesota, Illinois
and Wisconsin.
The Seventh Army COrps was pro:
ceded by its commander. Major Gen.
Blair, with his staff followed by head
quarters
,escort. The troops of ; this
corps , arc from Ohio, Illinois,. Now
York, Wisconsin, Indiana, MinneSota,
and Michigan. ' • •
The next in review was the army
of. Georgia, Major General Slocum
.commanding.. The Twelfth.. Corps
was commanded by Major :General
MOwer, and composed of -voluntesis
from Connecticut ; Pennsylvania, New
York, , Wisconsin,-Massachusetts,
Delaware, Indiana and Michigan.
'This was ,succeeded ,by the Four
teenth Army Corps, Brevet • Major
General 3: C. Davis Commanding. It
was composed of volunteers from Wis
consin,' Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michi
gani,Now York, ,Minnesota and-Ken
tucky. The respective commanders,
of the armies, divisions and brigades,
bore uppri their persons a profusion of
flowers, and as they passed along the
line cheers wore given, and flags wa
ved.
The armies represented all branch
es and divisions of service, caval
ry, artillery and infantry, with suffi
cient variety in the trimming and ap:
pointments to relieve the general
sameness of uniform, and several reg
iments of ZonaveS contributed to pro:,
duce the effect: Sections of pontoon
bridges and ambulance Stretchers ; and
even heavy , wagons, were features of
the procession. There was also a fair
representatien Of_ the spade and axe
departthetit; the implements being Car
ried on the shoulders of both white and
colored soldiers.
Very much enthusiasm was oc
casioned by a display of pack horses
and mules. They were all heavilyload
ed with commissary supplies, including
chickens, a coon, a dog and -a goat
, were comfortably fastened to three of
the saddles. These were the pets'of his
soldiers. Two black sOldiers of the
largest size, riding very small mules,
their feet nearly: - touching the ground.
was regarded as a. comic scene in con
nection with this part of the display,
and occasioned general laughter.
An interesting feature in the parade
was the exhibition of flags and banners
of various patterns, some of them en
tirely new. ' others were carried torn by
bullets and reduced to shreds, while
others, entire as to
to
fad
ed by' exposure to the • iveathar or
blackened by the smoke of bade. Sev
eral staffs were carried from which
the flags had been shot away. _All
the spear heads Were ornamented
with flowers. It was remarked as in
contrast to the army of the Potomac
that the troops composing the armies
of Georgia and Tennessee wore . the
Wide brim felt hats, regulation pattern., ,
Their appearance in all respects was
equal to that of the army of the Poto• -
mac, notwithstanding they had perfor
med more marching service. Their
applauded. mo'fainnts were much admired and
The:commander of each army corps
and division, attended by one staff
officer, dismomated after passing the
General-in-Chief, and joined him until
his army corps or division had passed
the reviewing stand, when he joined
his command. •
. Brigade bands or consolidate field
music, turned. out and played as their
brigade, passed. One band to each di•
vision performed during the march
from - the Capitol to the Treasury build
ing.
After the troops passed the reviewing
officers, they wore marched to their
respective quarters, Secretary Seward,
notWithstitriding his severe physical
affliction, took a deep interest in the
review. Gen. Augur made him cord-
Portable, and furnished him with a good
position at the. Headquarters of.the.
Defences of Washington, that ho might
witness'the graind military display.
The armies of Tennessee and Geor
gia occupied .six hours in passingole
same length of time required yesterday
for review of the Army of the Pete
