no one can tell. Before him are the bay and the

Yenteraey Divie requested permisalen for
a chaplain to one him. Tint Le the second re
quest of this kind he has made since his arrival.
Chaplifn A'erfeed has :sent to his cell, He
greeted the chaplain with warmth. "It Is to
'ion end to this took" (holding the Bible In his
Mind." "1 mast look," he said, "fdr consolatlon
now." The chaplain talked to him of hie spirit
uel condition, read. to him passages from the
Bible and pla yed With him. After the chaplain
left, Davla appeared to be le much binder spirits
than he bee
h een in, for some time past.
He rest% the Bible morning add evening.
Recently, I am told; he protracts. these reidtnge
much more than at the commencement of his
imprisonment. He confesses his ballet in the
Bible; and prof:MAU to 'have made it the ruling
guide of his life. It Is evident that he does not
fancy being confined exclusively to reading the
Ekviptures, for he sometimes clamor* for a dif
fermi% style of literature; but Ida request in this
regard thus: far has not been complied with.
This refusal to extend his reading privileges,
and not permitting him to write to his wife or
am letters from her, have formed the burden of
his complaints.
Ii permission wee given him to have all the
books he wished he could not Lead mud: him
self. and for the Comfort' derived from them
would heiVe to rely mainly on others reading to

Life ,in prison Is ueeessmily ,isionotonons,,_
With few it has ever been more so than with
Davie. He' rises petty early, usually at fivo,
o'clock in the morning. He takes a bath the
IBM thing, using salt water first, and wiodlog
TIP with fresh water, His bathing facilities are
limited, consisting lof a• common washtub half
filled with salt water, a wash basin of Nish
water; comae towels and soap. An army blan
ket he converts Into a temporary screen, and I
bedlies behind this. lie is not very particular
abhet his toilet, the fashion of combing his hair
and all that, but is enact upon the subject of
cleanliness of his nodereloteing, sheets, towels,
fie. Bath and toilet completed, he reads his
Bible and at half-pant eight has his breakfast.
i
This s served him from Dr. Craven's table. The
statement In some 'of the papers that a daughter
of Dr. Craven brings him his food Is incorrect.
A soldier brings his meals to him. Tea, toast
and an egg or two, or broiled steak, usually
make up his breekfant. His appetite is very
variable. General Mlles may call in to see
him and pass a fop words, or the officer of the
guard may have something to say; for only
these two, except his phydleian and Craven, and
the chaplain, of Men.. when he calls, are al
lowed to speak to him- la eouversation he has
betrayed an anxiety and even determination to
discuss, the subject of the impossibility Of ever
convicting blm of treason. He sh.cows himself
back upon the question of State rights as Old
main point of defense. For some time, finding
that all the discussion was on his own side, be
has kept silent on the subject. Except these in
terruptions in the tray of conversation, welch, It
will be understood, are not daily by any means,
he passes most of isle time till half put three
r. sr., his dinner hour, in looking at the window.
'Be -smokes his pipe occasionally, but Is no great

hltn too nervous. After dinner be puree the

as perhaps he knona it would do no coed If he
did.
In previous letters T have described Mr. Davis'
.. qp.artris and the gbard pieced over 111. a.
eantiena the 6216h0:88 at drat. He bas been or
gent to have the guard in his own room, the
rear room of the easemate--two are kept con
stantly in both trent and — back room, and an
cillicer with them--, , removed arid kept in the front
room. But his entreaty was of no avail. Nazi
he desired that theguard In blame° room might
be allowed to stand instead of being kept walk
ing, but here, too, his request has not boon com
plied with.
There is every reason to believe that the ere-
Cullen of the assassination conspirators In
Washington has been communicated to Davis'
within the past three or four days. It is cer
tain that a great and marked change has come
over him, and to iris undoubted knowledge of
this execution the change is attributed. His
food Is of the best quality, ha has ahtmdattee of
pure air, and there is no special lesson other
wise accounting for present gloominess and de
creasing health.

TBE EXECIFFION OF MRS. SITRRATT.
ERRONEOUS STATEMENTS CORRECTED
THE FACTS IN THE CASE STATED
Wetartscrron, July 33.—The hzent of the As-
racists+ Presi, referring to the special dispatch
to the Now York Tribune flops Washington, of
the 16th inst., publishes In the Issue of that
Journal of the 18th, relating to the circumstances
attending the issue of a pass to the Rev. Mr.
Walter to attend Mrs. Barrett,- says: I beg to
aisle the facts lathe case, which are as follows:
On the 6th inst., the Rev. kr. Walter called at
the War Department and asked for a pass to
visit Mrs. Barrett in the military prison, saying,
if I am not mistaken, that she had expressed
a desire to see him. I submitted the request to
the Secretary of War, who at once:
raid that a sass might , 'be given.
Neither the Rev. Mr. Walter nor - myselfthen
knew of the approval of the sentence or the
Military Commission in. the case of Mrs. Bar
rett. I sent Mr. Walter a pass, but afterwards
Paring that therms signed by myself might not,
under the circomstancea, be accepted by the
Meer in charge of the prison, and In order that
there might be no possibility of dissppointorent
In the admissloe of a clergyman to aff ird the
ecessary spiritual cervices, I sent Mr. Barry, •
clerk in my since, to see the Rev. Mr. Walter,
and to tell him that It would be better not to go
an the pass sent, but that I would again see the
Ekcretary of War, and as be hal assented to the
v telt of the clergyman to the prison, would get a
pass signed by himself, as otherwise there was
possibility of his being put to the trouble of go
ing to the prison without being enabled to secure
admission. .
It was also a part of my deal= that Mr. Barry
should.impress upon Rev. Mr. Walter the no
eessiiy of good faith in the use of the pass.
When replaced after thus sending Mr. Barry to
Father Walter, I went to the Secretary of War
and asked his own signature to a pass, as re
ferred to above, when upon his signing which, I
i
said to him that I was con Ildeot the pa s would
be need strictly for the purpose for will la It woe
asked—a professional visit to lminis •
ter the sacraments anft to prepare the
person to be visited for death.
When Mr. Barry, my messenger pr the
Rey. Mr. Walter retnrued, he Informed me of ths
violent and excited language of Father Waiter,
with regard to the trial and its result which
be, Mr. Walter. bad heard after leaving rho War
Deparimint. On hearing this I went rayedf to
see the Rev. Mr. Walter, to caution him, as his
well.wisher, and as a friend of the Church,
and In my Private capacity entirely, with recard
to the nee of language anpiementory ms that
which he bad Indulged in at this tlmo of omit
public excitement. I Introduced the conversa
tion by pointing to the fact that what he had just
said bad made an lenpresaion upon my messen
ger, who had repeated his remarks to me. .
I explained to him, as I have said above, that
there might be a possibility of Ala not zettliig
Into the prison upon my pass,_ and that I there
fore bad asked the Secretary of War for a pass
slimed by himself, on giving which, I had said
that I was confident that it would not be used
for any other purpose than that for which It was
&eked, and I wanted him, (Mr. Walter,) to be
eu govErned so that I would be safe In the user-
Von I had made. Mr. Walter had displayed so
much excitement and temper that It was a duty
o enmity on my part; In view of all the &cum
!Plaices, to endeavor to Induce him to pursue a
more disereet course, and to counsel him to be
silent. as became his place on these topics. I
aiked him in a friendly and kind way to prom
ise me that be would desist from talking about
the matter.
Mr. I'Vealter's convictions as to the innocence of
the prisoner. or the use of any proper efforts, be
hoving her to be innocent, to arrest herexecutionl
were not made matters of objection. It was to
the inflammatory character sad effect of his ob
servations at this period when the public mind
was agitated, that my attention was directed to
the unnecessary, Idle and angry discussions and
harangues that could not but be ofischievtou.s,
just at this moment; and sines It had appeared
%hat Mr. Walternoutd sot approach the Subject
with temper and taken:Lim:, it was better lie
st•ould let it alone.
This was a confidential conversation between
niQ self and Mr. Walter, as hat. been seen. The
yisitjwas not at all official, bnt entirely as that
bili`private individnal. My m.itives were land
aide. rhey were to restrain Imprudent and mis
chiecleus discussions, end to ensure the use of
pass to be given in ties faith intended when It wee
slimed, and to make my promise aped. The viatt
was not suggested by the Bee'y of War, or even
know,, to him, till at the present time. 1-donot
know what Mr. Walter couht have understood
ae 'Aug prompted by instructions in my con
versation.
I u re, lying to me. Mr. Walters was very sirs
lent; the range of hie conversation aim quite
wide. He harangued upon the administration
aid the rcbtillon, and dwelt with bitterness
upon what he called Military tyranny He said
rcohatly all to is riorcatatai 13 hare sail In
tie fourth paragraph of the article to tiation,
at d vary much more than a prudent, loyal eit
her, or a man of sense would hay,: said.
runag all thin time I was endeavoring to
anmeel him to be moderate In his rzora.sions.
I did not till Father W. that be should not
hove apses If/Indic] cct promise to say nothing of
hirk. 'IS =maim Annoyed by what he had
raid. 1 wee about, however, to leave the room
and to defer‘tving him a paae, remarking. "I
will fend you wore as to the pam In two boars,"
when he chid "I promise." I Intended using
the two hours to sea wbst the Secretary of
War wt old say. I we• convinced rifler what had
taken piece that Mr. W. was not in the
proper frame at mind to be a eatable adviser,
scd upon the circumstances another priest
should be procured for her Instead.
Mr. Walter said he promlresi r which satisfied
me he would not emit to be governed by the con
sideration of prudence I had suggested, and he
lloing that he would perform what be said, I
gave a pa,s. When I designed to withdraw from
Father Welker without elvirg him a pass, I by
any swans did not Intend that his eels shordd
d• vire the prisoner of the services of
tart clergy. My view on the question was only
that some other prim Micald ho; in fact an
other priest did go. It has been my fortune to
be the means of sendmg clergy to attend to Uni
ted States a; idlers, and I won't throw a straw in
the way of clergy s of any denomination visiting&
patient. loyal or disloyal, living or dying, when
bis services were called for. I could not see or
know of a person of my creed dying without
giving soy assistance In my power to procure
the sursitlon of a priest.
With r,gard to the denials of the passes to Mr
Wolter to cleft the prisoner whoa ill as referred
to in tie last part of the - article in question,
Fai her Waiter stated to my, messenger that he
had been requested by Mrs. tibirraWstiortly eb
terahe was arrested, and since, tod

that be bad refined to do so, notwithstanding,
not desiring to .have his name connected
with It till the trial was over. I did not sort to
meddle with Mr. Walter's convictions as to the
Innocence of Mrs. Starrett, nor did I attempt to
restrain him from the use of any proper efforts
to bring Ma convictions to notice In quasters
where bin representations might toe of avaiL
So far from this being the cue, an hour of
two after the ertiventation referred to, when he
called uyon me at the War Department and told
me that he-could not gain admittance with the
daughter of the prisoner to the Executive MA/I

a card to the acting Military Secretary of the

A Mooted Question Probably Settled
It bas long been an nadeelded rinestion,"Who

of "Braddoik's Fields," and v4en

miles distant from
theb occupied only by a
.en for protection against the savages, has
grown into a large and opulent city, the answer
to the question is only traditionaL It has been
the geterally received statement that General
Braddock was not killed by an Indian, as some
Istorints say, but by one' of his own men. In
couirmation of this we have the statement of
en udetly lady, and wile
of Mirka Coutch, residing near.Fredericktowa,
Wrollington county. This lady—who, by the
way, we may state, sent four sous to help put
duwo the rebellion, and expressed regret that
her fifth son was too young to Join them—
says. and we give her own language:
"I am a grand-daughter of Henry Vanmeter,
who came over the mountains with Cul. (Gen.)
Washington and Gen, Braddock. I :member
n.y grandfather well, and have often heard him
say .hat Gen. Dradtiock was allot by one of bin
own men. He said that, Gen. Eraddock, seeing
a soldier step behind a tree to load his rifle, and
thinking the net a cowardly one, rode up and cut
him down with his Sword. Sam atter that
Bradde.k foil a few feet from where my grand•
father stood. Braddock sant for Colonel Wash
lrgton, and told him he was done for, and to
take command. After the battle was over, my
erendfather said Inquiry was made about who
shot the General. and a limn spoke up and said,
'I don't know who killed him, but I know he
krlied my brother, andi know I have a good
ride, that I took a good also, and fired, and I saw
Gen. Braddock fall."
