HORACE GREELEY AS JEFFERSON
DAVIS' BAIL.
It is alleged that Horace Greeley,
of the Netc York Tribune, went to
Washington, and Richmond, for the
purpose of using his influence in fa
vor of the release of Jeff. Davis, and
proffering himself as security, in case
Davis was released. While Mr. G.
had a perfect right to do this, so far
as we are concerned, and an equal
right to make a fool of himself in
any other way, we trust he will take
good-naturedly any comments or
consequences, which this action pro
vokes. For ourself, we always tbo't
Davis should be hung, not because of
any spite, revengeful, or even unkind
feelings we entertain towards him,
but because public justice, and fu
ture security demanded it. Aside
from the fact, that the pardoning and
releasing of all the leading rebels,
invites to another rebellion, it has a
tendency to demoralize the whole
public sentiment of the nation to
wards the government. We hung
Mrs. Surratt and three other poor
wretches, who doubtless, all deserved
their fate ; but would the hellish plot
to murder Mr. Lincoln have been
concocted, and carried out, by these
parties, had it not been for Jeflersou
Davis' rebellion ? Was it not enter
ed into for the purpose of aiding the
rebellion, and as such, part of its
devilish work ? Who doubts this ?
Who does not know, that if, through
Booth's assassin hand, the union had
been overthrown, that every member
of the conspiracy would have been
immortalized by the rebels ? Now,
the immediate cause of this conspir
acy against the life of the President,
is released on bail, as a prelude to
his final acquittal, while his poor
dupes, because they were poor, and
not half so criminal, were hanged.--
This lesson is before the country, and
does any one doubt that it lessens re
spect for a government that will hang
poor but acquit rich criminals of
crime ? During the war, many poor
people complained that their rela
tives were wounded and killed, while
the general officers, and other promi
nent ones escaped ; but after the
death of the President—when the
highest of the nation had fallen a
victim to the fell spirit of the re
bellion, the complainers were recon
ciled ; and so it would have been in
regard to the rebellion itself, if its
chief had been punished as he should
have been, and that he is released,
is probably more owing to Horace
Greeley than any other man in the
country. We have said that Mr. G.
had done as he pleased in the prem
ises, for a man may burn down a
house, or murder his neighbor, if he
chooses to abide the consequences to
himself ; but we do object to a man's
bringing odium upon his country,
and weakening it shold upon the peo
ple, by exposing it to ridicule and
ceusure. This be has done in this
business. Nor can he release him
self on the plea of magnanimity.—
Must his whims on this score be
, gratified at the expense of the na
, tion? And, we think he will be
greatly disappointed in the supposi
-5 tion, which no doubt has led him on,
i that he will be applauded by the lib
eral minded of the land. He has be
come the apologist of the greatest
1 criminal of the age, and why ? Not
because this criminal needed his as
-1 sistance. For all the bail, and all
the money Davis could use were pro
ferred besides, and he could have se
cured it by his own means, had it
been needed. And if Davis had been
poor and despised, would Greeley
have plead for his release, and spent
. his own money in going to Richmond
. to offer himself as surety ? Who be
■ lieves this ? Why did he not go and
help Mrs. Surratt, who really needed
help 1 His magnanimity was out
then. He could get no notoriety
there. Oh, poor humanity, how its
greatness leaks out through its weak
selfish promptings !
ftfir Reports from the Southern
States to the Union Republican Con
gress Executive Committee, says the
Washington correspondent of the
Tribune, give a flattering statement
of the work of organizing the Re
publican party in those States.—
Louisiana, from all accounts,is ahead
of the other States in the good work.
This is attributed to the determined
and judicious course of Gen. Sheri
dan, who is showing no mercy to
Rebels, and is using all the means
placed at his disposal by the Recon
struction act. Virginia is behind the
other States in organization, but the
Radical Union politicians write that
they have full faith in Gen. Schofield,
who is moving slowly, but in the
right direction. The Committee is
daily receiving contributions from
the North, and continually sending
agents South to aid in the organiza
tion. Gen. Banks is now here, and
the Committee is trying to have him
make a political tour South. Anna
Dickinson has also been invited by
the Committee to make a tour through
the Southern country. The Commit
tee agents state that the negroes in
and around the large cities and towns
are almost entirely Radical Republi
can. Those in the back country and
around large plantations are more or
less controlled by their masters.
JEFFERSON DAVIS.
The city dailies have given us
long and thrilling* accounts of the
passage of Jefferson Davis from
Fortress Monroe to the city of Kich-
mond, whither the arch-traitor was
called by a writ of habeas corpus, is
sued by Judge Underwood. The
boat was crowded with curious and
obsequious people, and every place
from the point of startingto the land
ing crowds gathered to see his Sa
tanic majesty. Two bridal parties
went up on the boat in order to get
a little notoriety, and add eclat to
the liberation of the grand criminal.
Some of the rebel ladies, dear crea
tures, shed tears when they saw the
pale, haggard look of the dishonored
chief. We suppose some people
would cry, if Beelzebub was releas
ed, after he had been chained a while.
When the name of John M. Botts
was called out in the Court House,
as one of Davis' bail, a great buzz
went up, because, we suppose, Botts
had not been a true rebel. There is
no accounting for tastes, or the queer
whim of people. We are surprised
at one piece of great disrespect, and
want of feeling, on the part of Glen.
Burton, and his subordinates, who
had Davis in charge, (and we should
not be surprised if he was instantly
dismissed from the public service
when it gets to the ears of our wor
thy President,) and that was. that
the Stars and Stripes were hoisted
and allowed to wave over the boat
during its passage up the James,
with Davis and William B. Reed on
it; and it is surprising that these
worthies would remain on it under
such a standing insult. Hope the
Government officials will make hasty
and due apologies for this grevious
offense, and suggest that the Honor
able Edgar Cowan be appointed on
a special mission for this purpose.—
Mr. Doolittle goes to Russia, and
why should not Cowan go some
where on a special embassy ? Davis
was released on bail, and is there
fore, now at large. The result we
anticipated more than a year ago ;
and what a pretty farce Johnson's
reward of a hundred thousand dollars,
which he offered, and paid out of the
public treasury, for Davis' arrest,
turns out to be ? The arrest, im
prisonment, and mock trial, which he
is to have, costing not less than half
a million of dollars, all of which
could have been saved if Davis had
been suffered to flee in the first place,
and this should have been done. For
then, besides saving this waste of
public money, the nation would have
been spared the dishonor which the
pusillanimous conduct of the admin
istration has brought upon it in its
management of the great criminal.
From this out Davis will be a hero.
The great martyr of a great cause.
Had he been left to flee all this dis
grace would have been averted.
ftgr Despatches from Europe state
that the conference of representa
tives of leading powers which had
assembled in London to try to recon
cile the Luxemburg difficulties be
tween Prussia and France has been
successful. The terms of the settle
ment are the guarantee by the great
Powers of Europe of the neutrality
of the Grand Duchy of Luxumburg,
which is to remain, as heretofore pro
vided by the treaty of IS3 ( J, under
the rule of the King of Holland. In
order that these provisions may be
effectually carried out, the fortress
of Luxemburg is to be razed to the
ground, the Prussian troops are to
be withdrawn, and no army is to re
main within the territory of the duchy
except such a limited force as may
be required for the purposes of
police.
&eu)s of tl)e tDeck.
—Mexican News byway of Ila-
Tanna through Imperial sources represent
that the Liberal forces beseiging Queretaro
have been defeated ; that Miramon, instead
of being dead, is pressing the Liberal forces
to the v ail. It is further stated that Maxi
millian had entered the City of Mexico with
8,000 men, and had defeated Diaz, captur
ing all his artillery and 1,500 prisoners, the
latter immediately joining the Imperial
forces. The messenger, sent by our Minis
ter. Hon. L. D. Campbell, to Juarez, has
just reached New-Orleans, and brings news
which contradicts the above. He reports
Escobedo at Qusretaro with 35,000 men, and
in possession of all the roads but one.—
Maximillian was in the city with 15,000
men, and it was confidently believed that he
would speedily surrender. The Liberals
feel very bitter toward Maximillian and his
native officers, and it is doubtful if Juarez
can save their lives in case of their being
taken prisoners.
—The lightning played strange
freaks in the house of Mr. Joshua Jeffries,
Trenton, Mr. J., May 13. It entered the
house on the roof, by the side of the chim
ney, shivering one of the rafters, and knock
ing down a quantity of the ceiling of the
upper bedroom. It then passed down the
frame of a large mirror hanging against the
chimney, shivering the frame, thence down
the iron support of a small centre-table, then
along the floor, ripping up the carpet and
[ tearing out pieces of the flooring, and so
out of the side of th e house. From this
point it passed along between the tin roof
ing and the wood of the kitchen roof, and
followed down a tin water pipe into the
ground, tearing up the bricks and milking a
hole about a foot in depth. No one in the
house,was injured, although a servant girl
was badly scared by it.
—On Sunday last while a largo
number of people were visiting an Indian
encampment near Auburn, Mo., David L.
Stetson, a white man, got into a quarrel
with a colored boy named Jackson Lewis.
During the quarrel Lewis stabbed Stetson
in the back with a pocket-knife, inflicting
seriouabut not lutal wounds. Lewis was
arrested.
—A man named Robert Tayli r, of
Cutakill, was shot and instantly killed by
James McGuire, in a grocery-store at Stuy
vesant Landing, on Tuesday night. They ,
were both intoxicated, and getting into a
(piarrel, McGuiro drew a sietol and shot
Taylor, he says, in self-defence. The ball
penetrated the brain of the latter, causing
instant death. McGuire, who belongs to
Peekskill, where his parents reside, was im
mediately arrested.
—The ship-builtliug interest of
New-England is now suffering greater de
pression that it has experienced for years,
and many of the yards are silent and desert
ed. Only about sixteen vessels are now on
the stocks in the entire State of Massachu
setts. Iu New-Hampshire and Maine the
business is somewhat brisker, though com
petition with the -hiit-builders of the Brit
ish Provinces is difficult and discouraging.
—At Bradford, Mass., a spiritual
ist named Smith, held a scennce at his house
on Tuesday night, which was disturbed by
some young men of the village. This en
raged Smith, who rushed out with a pistol
and shot one of them, named Samuel Web
ster, dead. Smith then surrendered him
self to the authorities. Webster leaves a
wile and family.
—On Thursday evening the body
of an unknown man was ionnd in the woods
near New-Brunswick, N. J. There was noth
ing about his person to indicate who he was.
The evidence before the Coroner's Jury
showed that he was killed by a pistol ball,
but whether fired by his own hand or that
of an assassin could not be determined. He
was about thirty years of age, had dark hair,
and had been dead five or six days.
—A member of one of the Boston
churches, who has been laboring among the
fallen women of that city, has persuaded
twenty-three to return to their homes, seven
of whom have been converted, and five
others were furnished homes in Christian
families. By his efforts one notorious
house of ten inmates has been closed.
A party of gentleman out fish
ing on Thursday afternoon on the banks of
the James lliver, a little below Roeketts,
discovered a box on the bank in which was
contained the body of a man, and in a clump
of bushes near the water the naked form of
a female, partly decomposed. The faces of
both were past recognition.
—The bodies of five persons who
died violent deaths were recovered iu Chica
go between Saturday and Monday mornings.
The body of a man burned to death was
found in the ruins of a hotel, a woman was
bailed to death in a brewer's vat of scalding
water, and three persons were drowned. Oi
the latter two were suicides.

THE HISTORY OF THE
AMERICAN NAVY
DURING THE
GREAT REBELLION,
BY THE
REV. CHARLES B. BOYNTON, D.D.
Professor at the U. S. Naval Academy,
and Chaplain of the House of
Representatives.
To be complete in two elegant octavo vol
umes of about five hundred pages each,
! embellished and illustrated with some ten
full-page Engravings in ehromo tints, and
with the same number of full-page Wood
j cuts, Portraits on steel of Distinguished
j Officers, and Numerous Vignettes from
Sketches made by Commander M. B. Wool
' sey, U. S. Navy, and with numerous Maps
! and Charts from Government surveys and
i official plans, furnished for this work ex
i clusively.
No purely fancy sketches will find a place
I in the work, but all rhe engravings will rep
resent actual scenes and objects of interest,
; and will thus have an historical bearing and
importance, while they will executed in the
' highest style of the engraver's art, and will
| prove in every way an invaluable acquisi
i tion to the work, and not mere embellish
! ments.
| Among the objects of great interest that
I will be represented are the following :
The various New Eorms of Ordnance,
! and the Type Ships of our Navy ; so ar
; ranged as to show the Wonderful Progress
! made in Naval Warfare since the breaking
' out of the Rebellion.
| The Harbor and River Obstructions.
The Torpedoes in various forms used by
! the Rebels for the Destruction of our Ves
sels.
Rebel Casemates destroyed by U. S. Gun
; boats "Baron de Kalb " and " Louisville."
1 The dam made across Red River to re
| lease the Fleet of Admiral Porter.
I Fort Morgan ; showing from actual mea
| surement the place where every shot and
j shell struck, and the effect of eaoh.
Every desired facility has been extended
Dr. Boynton by the Navy Department for
obtaining information from original and re
liable sources, as will appear from the fol
lowing letter from Secretary Vv'elles :
NAVY DEP'T., WASHINGTON, 9th Dec. 1865.
, Rev. C. B. BOYNTON, D. D :
DEAB SIR : —I have been made acquainted
| to some extent with the plan of your pro
| posed History of the Rebellion, with spe
: cial reference to the part taken by the Na-
I vy in suppressing it, and with pleasure
j give you access to the official papers and
i records of the Department, so far as it is
proper to make public use of them. The
1 fullest opportunity will be afforded you to
| gather information from original sources,
j as well as to verify such facts as have al
| ready been published.
Very respectfully,
GIDEON WELLES,
Secretary of the Navy.
" The author undertakes the work in the
i earnest hope that it may aid in setting the
| work of the Navy in its true light before
! tho public,—to show the people how much
I the country is indebted for its triumph and
| present security to those who organised and
directed the operations of the Navy, and to
those who so successfully guarded our long
coast-line and communications, and fought
our battles upon the rivers and the sea
while the publishers are determined to car
ry out the most liberal views in its produc
tion. They intend to spare neither pains
! nor money to make the work all that the
1 most ardent friends of the Navy could de
sire. It will be printed on beautiful paper,
j ol excellent quality, in large clear type, and
i handsomely bound in various styles.
