Henry Winter Dios.
fftor the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
. ,
Winter Davis is dead. By many he was
esteemed the foremost arnong,the_ young
statesmen, of America,. - By all, he was re
.
gard
e(' as neither a suspicious friend or a
timidloe. By. Some he will be charged with
being arrogant and ambitious. Bat that
sentiment' cannothe Censured with such a
,
name which leads its possesser, stubbornly
conViiidecl in the • depths of a mind of no
ordinary powera of the correctness of a
political principle, to adhere to that principle
with relentless tenacity through victory and
in defeat._ Such was Winter. Davis. When
defeated as a candidate for renomination in
1864, as is commonly supposed, by the Blair
inilaence, I paid to' him in his place in the
House of Representatives, " -
"I suppope you care little for a return to
Congress ?I' , • .
His reply was characteristic of Winter
Davis. "Yes," he said, with a- Ouch of
sadness; did care to be'returned.to Con
gress; because I believed I could be of ser
vice to the 'Republic." • . • •
Froni , that hour roes:43d to regard Henry
Winter Davis as the bold and defiant leader
of an opposing faCtion inside of a'deminant
majority, but. I begin: to look at him with
sympathy; appreciation- and tenderness. He
declined the proffered honor-of-being a can
didate for'Vide - President; inlB6o.
He bad been schooledunder the influences
of slavery, 4?-talt* system' which can clasp
the Bible with •handetiffa and festoon the
Cross of Christ with chains, wasnot, at first,
powerless in. its influence over a mind with
too much sensibility, and too susceptible to
the inexorable power of the ionic of common
sense to fesist the advance. of Ideas founded
in reason, rich! in enthusiasm and a part of
the elemental foundation" of the. Republic
itself. Henry Winter • Davis, was, like all
men' true to nature, a strong man. He fol
lowed•wherever the principle leadhina, let
the personal consequences of that fidelity to
principle - be what they might. _ '
Do you tell me ne •was ambitious? Not
that ambition thotigh; which kneels before
power witkbaited breath and whispering
humblan,ces:
His mind was not an utter stranger to
that last infarmityof noble minds; but he
was ertlyamlaitio n s in this that he loved to
engage in, and to achieve distinction, in a
great cause;hut more for the sake of-the
cause than for the sake of hime!3l..f. - In this
consisted his greatness. , He aspired not to
places of power for the sake of poWer. He
sought power that he might accomplish
great things for his country and his age.
In the battle to emancipate Maryland,
Henry Winter Davis was in the fore front
of the - fight, and her peoole_ welcomed . him
in the:words of the Knightly Andalusian
King:
"Take thou the !eliding of the vah
And charge the Moors amain• '
There is not such a lance as thine
In all the hosts of Spain."
When New Jersey wheeled into line with
free Maryland, Winter Davis sent me a
word otwelcome (it was only yesterday,
for it was thelwentieth of December). But
in his letter,was also a word of warning.
He Says - speaking of the States lately in
rebellion :
"The''State governments of these States
ceased to exist in law, by renouncing the
constitution,and in fact, by being expelled
brarms.
"These States are in the Union—else we
are only bound to guarantee republican
governments. They have not republican
governments and that alone gives Congress
jurisdiction to control the restoration under
the power to . guarantee. _
"Sumner :s getting - right on that point..
Congress looks fret. but it must be wise as
well as firm. If it go before the people next
tall on a negative issue, leaving-President
Johnson's ggvernments in possession of the
States and simply_ refuse to admit them to
Congress we will inevitably be beaten.
Congress must annul Johnson's govern
ments, formally prescribe universal suffrage
as the condition sine qua non of recognition
and propose to amend the Constitution,
making it the supreme law of the land for
all the States, and go to the country on these
measures."
These were not the views of a day. The
Wade-Davis manifesto on reconstruction
did the country some service, for it caused
Mr. Lincoln to tell. Montgomery Blair that
his "time had come." •
In October Mr. Davis .wrote to me (the
last letter of his bearing a frank as a mem
ber of Congress) that he had expressed these
views in a letter. to Robert Dale Owen which
would be published if any New : York paper
could be found:,to print it.
That letter has since -been- published in
the Nation.
From Henry Winter Davis; utterances on
the great and absorbing questions' of the
4ay, there never came an uncertain sound.
There was a muscular morality about the
man which made him the most agreeable
of eompanions, and this, with the added
nerve and Consciousness of the power to say
the right thing, and that lie, had the pluck
to say it, come what might, made him one
of the most, remarkable men of this or any
other country. How noble his voice rang
out for the rights of mankind at
_Chicago on
the 4th of July.
Here are the concluding sentences of that
oration, which goes to the foundation of
those everlasting but simple principles of
impartial liberty, a due regard for which
will, save the Republic, and an utter disre
,lard o 4 which may yet leave it nothing to
boast of but its "reins audits demagogues."
Viten to the dead ()rater - , in his last pub
lie., utterance of an immortal truth.
"And when it (the 'amendment;' aganist
slavery) shall have received the assent of
three-fourths of those now recognized as
States and represented in Congressilet Con
gress instantly , proelatin it as the funda
mental. law of the land, valid, and binding
as the Constitution itself; ofwhich-they will
thus have made It a part; under which they ,
sit, of which no State.caprice, no question of
political parties, nothing, in the future, eX.
cept the-'triumph;of slavery over 'free
institutions, can 'ever ahake or , call in
question. .[Applause.], _Then all the pro
clamations., of the' Declaration , of Inde
pendence will be, executed; this.
Gavermnent will rest on the rights of indi
vidual liberty, - and on the right of every
man to- a share in the- Government of
the country,whose /aW he obeys, and whose '
bayonet in the hour of danger he. bears.
Andthe petional freedom which the dark
children of the Republic have lion:by, our
blood and theirs,will not be a vain mockery,
exposed to violation at the caytiee• ,c,v. their
masters ) enthroned in thelegmlature,on the
bench, and in the executive chamber, but,
secured by the bayonet, they hold, and the
ballot they cast tea/ be Liberty guarded by
.Poiver."
Winter :Davis was born in 1817, and was
nearly 49 Yeara of agnmhen he died. He
served eight :years in Congress, and his
naiad' will go down with• the history of the
American conflict as one of her most accous.
plished orators and one of our meat cultured
statesmen. He was eloquent in saying just
what ought to be said-and no more.
Voltaire says that the. "life of genius is
activii'lwarfare. - " The career ,of Winter:

his conflicts 'are- over.

NEW; TEAMS DAT AT WASEUNGTOIir.
The PresiidenTh Reception.
[From the Washington Star of Yesterday.]
The first public reception was given by
President, Johnson 10-day. It was hoped
that, previous to adjournment, Congress
would appropriate a sufficient sum for re•
furnishing - the White House, but it was
found • that 'the ,thirty thousand dollare
which WaS appropriated for that purpose,
- barely sufficed to pay offdebts accumulated'
dining the previous occupancy of the Ex,
ecutive Mansion, !leaving nothing for pre
sent improvements.' The East Room is
particularly defaced, and was unfit for a
reception, but by the efforts of Mr. W,illiam
Slade, steward of the White Haase, it was
placedin a tolerably presentable condition.
The worn carpet in this apartment as well
as those in the Other rooms, was covered
with'atneat spread, for the purpose of pro
tecting it from further injury by the crowd,
and the most soiled furniture was removed.
The carpets in the, ante-rooms ,were taken
up leaving the oil cloth, which is always
laid doWn under them.
A. platform was built from the windciw of
he hall in which the staircase. ascends, to
111 e 'pavement, so as to enable the crowd to
pass outWithoutobstructingingress, and the
doors'of the vestibule were removed, thus
giving free access to the reception room.
In the Blue Room, where the President
receives his visitors, elegant bouquets
formed of White and variegated camelias,
heliotrope, lilies and mignonette were
placed in gilded flower stands, and on the
abquered tables of Japanese workmanship.
At an early hour this morning the United
States Marshal, Mr. Gooding, his deputji,
Mr. - Phillips, the Commissioner of/Public
Builcngs, Mr, French, and Mr. Richards, '
Superintendent of Metropolitan Police,were.
in attendance at the. White House, coni-h
pleting the arrangements for the ceremonies.
The detail of police consisted of sixty-seven
men, who, in their new uniforms and white
gloves, nresented a very creditable appear
ance. Forty were'assigned to the Executive
Mansion, under the command of Sergeants
Hurley and Skippon. Twenty of them were
stationed in thevarious apartments through
which the guests were to pass. A number
of police were also placed on duty at the
rcsidenc:es of the Secretaries.
The Marine Band, under Prof. Scala,
was seated in the principal ante-room, and
during the reception performed the follow
ing airs: Hail to the Chief; Coro and Aria--
Roberto it Diavolo; Overte—William Tell;
Aria--La Favorite; • Settimino—Ernani;
NValtz—Dream on the Ocean; Liberty
Duetto—l Puritan'; Duetto—La Traviata;
Cavatina—ll Furioso; Aria—Ernani; Ca
vatina—Harold; Grand March—Tanhauser;
Star-Spangled Banner, Hail Columbia, and
Yankee Doodle. The gates leading to the
grounds of the Executive Mansion were
closed, and guarded by a detachment of
Veteran Reserves.
Sir Frederick Bruce, British Minister,
was the first of the Diplomatic Corps to
arrive, and Secretary Stanton the first of the
Cabinet. The others included in the 11
o'clock reception rapidly followed, and con
sisted of the members of the Cabinet except
ing Secretary Seward, who sailed for the
gulf on Saturday, and who was represented
by the Acting Secretary of State, (Mr.
Bunter,) all of the Diplomatic Corps resid
ing in the city, Chief Justice Chase and the
Associated Judges of the Supreme Court,
and Judges Olin Cartter, and Wylie, of the
District Court. Most of these dignitaries
were accompanied by their families. A
large number of Senators, including the
President of the Senate, Mr. Foster, and
Senators Morgan, Harris, Johnson, Sauls
bury, Stewart, Ramsey; Foote, Morrill,
Howard and Stockton, and members of
Congress with their families were also
present.
A few minutes before eleven, the Presi
dent, accompanied by his daughters, Mrs.
Patterson and Mrs. Stover, and two'young
ladies from , Nashville, guests of the family,
entered the Blue Room. Col. Robert John
son, son of the President, was ill, and un
able to be present. The other attaches of
the Executive office, CoL Moore, Col. Rives.
Major Morrow, and Major Long, were in
attendance, and entertained many of the
guests who lingered in the reception room.
Mrs. Patterson was dressed in black velvet,
elegantly trimmed, and was ornamented
simply by a white japonica in her hair.
Mrs. Stover was attired in black silk, and
also without ornaments. Each lady held a
beautiful bouquet of mignonette, heliotrope
and japonicas.
Marshal Gooding stood on the left of the
President and nearest the entrance to the
reception room, and the Acting Secretary of
State on the right, the latter presenting the
members of the 'diplomatic corps as they
entered the apartment. ' The Commissioner
of Public Buildings, Hon. B. B. French,
presented the guests to Mrs. Patterson and
Mrs. Stover. After the members of the
Cabinet, the Foreign Ministers, the Judges
of the Supreme Court of the United States,
Senators and Representatives in Congress,
and the JudgeS of the Supreme Court of the
District of Columbia and the Court of Claims
had been presented, a few moments were
occupied in mutual congratulations, the
distinguithed guests completely filling the
Blue. Room, and forming a most brilliant
assemblage.
At half-past eleven the officers of the
Army, Navy and Marine Corps were re
ceived. General Townsend presented the
officers of the Army, who were preceded by
Lieutenant General p Grant and staff, and
included Major Generals Augur, Gilmore,
Meigs, Ingalls, "Fessenden; Mott, Vincent,
Hardie, Seth Williams; Brice, Barnes, How-,
ard, and others, and a large number of
Brigadier Generals and subordinate officers. ,
The officers of the Navy were not so nu
metope. These were presented by Captain
Fox, Assistant Secrebtry of the Navy, and.
consistedprincipallY of subordinate officers,
including those of the Marine Corps on duty
in Washingtan. "
At 12 o'clock the gates of Site President's
grounds were thrown open, and the cid
z i en's reception commenced.." Carriages an

On the wintry snow !
Whea the north winds blow
On their pinions strong and high,
And the tempest shrouds,
With Its sullen clouds.
The arch of the pleasant sky,—

Like a mantle ligut,
-It falls on the hill and plain.
Where the flowerets gay
In the summer day.
Were gemmed in toe soft bright rata.
The gladsome child.
With Its laughter wild,
Looks up in the frowning sky.
and the huge anew drifts.
And the wreaths and rifts,
Be hails with a gleaming eye.

Is'the tempest white,
When the Inds of w!nter blow!

Hr* vv's Ores srso M'srTS.RT.A.ritSl7.NT.—Heller. the
prince of mystery as well as of music, opened Weltering.
of performances at Concert Hall last night, to a' full
house. The seats were all occupied, and the Interest
manifested, and the applause bestowed upon the sue•
cessinl pertormance of the several tricks, snowed that
the audience were well pleased. The "Cabalistic
Clock," the "Witch's Pole,' and "Lucifer's Punch
Bowl," are truly wonderful exhibitions of the art of
deception. They are performed without the usual
machinery and accessories which are used by magi
cians and conjurers, and are, therefore, the greater
objects er amazement to the beholders. The musical
portion of the entertainment is a rich treat, especially
the burlesque musical illustrations. Second sight or
h 3 per -natural vision is a performance which must be
seen to be appreciated. There will be a grand matinee
given by Mr. Heller on Saturday afternoon, and on
Monday evening, the Sth, an entire new programme
will be given. We hope Heller will never omit from
his programme his exquisitely funny musical and pan
tomlmfe sketch of a boarding school miss practising on
the piano. It is worthy any comic actor in the land.

An affecting scene in court is described by
Mr. Jenkins. As Judge Olin, of the Circuit
Court, Washington, was sentencing the
venerable Joseph H. Bradley to pay.one
hundred dollars for eplling him (th e J u d ge )
a liar on a previous occasion, both himself
and Mr. Bradley were affected to tears!
Lawyer Bradley seems to be a common
court crier. He cried over Miss Harris, and
now he cries his own fines.
