Jeff Davis in Canada.
,
A Montreal correspondent of the Chicago
_Min/Miran has the following in regard to
Jeff. Davis :
Jeff. Davis ^and his family live here, on
Mountain street, with his mother-in-law, Mrs.
Howell. They formerly lived in a plain, un
pretentious house on the same street, but they
recently rented the fine mansion of Bev. Dr.
Wilkes. Last winter, before the release of
Jeff. Davis, the Howells were considered
rather "hard up," except when Mrs. Jeff
came there, when they appeared to have
plenty. It is said that they used to be
reduced to such straits that they had to
borrow wood and other fuel; weeks at a time,
from their next• do& neighbor, who, while
he detested Jeff.. Davis and all his crew,
could notsee his children suffer, and there
fore he lent them all they wanted. But this
neighbor bad his patience rather severely
tried one day when lie was informed that the
junior members -of Jeff.'s family had been
chastised for associating with his children.
They were ordered not again to be seen play
ing with any such' "low trash of children."
This was rather mortifying - to Jeff.'s neighbor,
a very respectable family indeed, and whose
children are fit to be the associates of those
of the best families in the country; but it de
monstrates the spirit which actuates the
Southern chivalry—borrow from you, and
then spit in your face.
AN INTERESTING COLLOQUY BETWEEN JEFF. DA-
TM'AiiD A SCOTCH LADY.
But, as I stated, Jeff Davis and his family,
with the Howells, now reside in an elegant
house on the same street; and the other even
ing at the Ottawa House I heard a good
story with regard to him. It appears that
his next door neighbor is a worthy Canadian
merchant, who has a Scotch wife of consider
able pluck and spirit, and both = take a great
deal of pride in a beautiful garden which is
attached to their house. Since Jeff and his
family came to reside next door to thenti,
the young members of Jeff's family have par
tially clmtiniyed this garden. by tearing down
beautiful trees, trammeling over flower beds,
&c.,much to the grief and annoyance of all the
Fundy. About two weeks ago, however, Mrs.
took the law into her own hinds. The
circumstances are as follows: Jefferson Davis
Jr.. was seen to climb the fence and get into
the garden, and was quietly engaged in pick
ing strawberries and stuthng himself with
them. when• our Scotch lady immediately
preceeded to, the garden, picked up a birch
wand, and gave young .feff a sound thrash
ing—letting him go with, the admonition that
the•dose would' be repeated eyery time he was
thundihom unihvited. Of course the youth
went home , bellowing from the application
of birch to his hips. and the whole family of
the "President" was up in arms, and an im
mediate demand was made by the female por
tion of the family that Jeff. Davis himself
proceed to the neighbor's house and demand
.satisfaction. He accordingly 4 proceeded,
rang the door-bell, which was opened by the
lady herself, after which the following collo
quy took place:
Jeff Davis—l desire to see the lady of the
house.
Scotch Lady—l'm the leddy o' this house.
What may I ca' you, if you'll excuse me for
speerin' ?
Je Dania--(Hesitatingly)—l am Presi
dent-Davis.
Scotch LadyL—Ou'l; so you're Jeff Davis,
are yron? You're a neebor o' ours, aren't you?
Jeff. Davis—l am.
;Scotch Lady—(Rather snappishly)—And
%tat may be your bisness wi' me?
Jeff. Davis—l came to intorin you that
one of;your servants abused my son Jeff in
a most shameful manner. •
Scotch Lady—(Rising to the dignity
which attaches to a true matron)—Pimua de-;
ceive yoursel, Mr. Jeff. Davis; it was nane o'
my servants that gave the callant a Hokin'. I
did mysel', and what's main, if ever I find
him in our garden again, I'll gi'e him a double
dose.
Jeff Davis—This is outrageous conduct to
both my family and myselt. I will appeal
to the law and have you arrested.
Scotch Lady—(Getting her mad up)—
Arrested? Jist try that. I suppose ye think
you're in the Confederacy and still President
of it? You'd put me in prison, would ye?
Hoo did ye like ityersel'—it's no sae lang
W
since ye got out? eel, you're a pretty man
to talk of arresting onybody—jist after ye es
caped the halter wi' the skin o' yer teeth!
At-this juncture Jeff. Davis beat a hasty re
treat,leaving our Scotch lady still talking,and
when the latter saw he was leaving, she
slammed the door after him.
.TEFF. DANIS'S STANDING AND POSITION.
A tua
Notwithstandip Jefferson Davis has a
large n --- i - --, . irers among the Eng
lish and sorne:Otte rich Canadians here, he
is not generally liked by the people. He
very seldom walks out, and when he does,
it is in the cool of the evening. His lank,.
lean body, shriveled face, prominent mouth,
the grin which constantly envelopes is coun
tenance, his sunken eyes, and hawk-like ex
pression, are not calculated to make the
people reverence or respect him. But
above and beyond all this, the memory of
"Andersonville" still adheres to him, to blast
and wither his reputation wherever he goes.
Go where he likes, he is a doomed man—
infinitely more so than Aaron Burr -or Bene
dict Arnold. Educated at the expense of his
country, he embraced the first opportunity to
head a rebellion to destroy it. It is not
strange, therefore, that the report should be
correct that he will shortly leave here to take
°- "up his residence somewhere in the state of
Georgia.
A Funny Escapade.
The village of Somonauk, 111., has, during
the past few weeks, fomented, and come
near overflowing the bounds of law and
order, to the disgrace of a - part of its resi
dents who helped the row. The trouble, as
near as can be gathered from rumors, was
this: A couple were united in marriage some
time in May, and after short bridal tour
went to reside with the parents of the hus
band. How happy the honeymoon passed
rumor with not, but soon after the
Fourth of July the bride, who,
it appears, was jealous of the young sister of
her husband, thinking all the love bestowed
on her by the otherwise devoted husband was
so much robbed from herself, commenced to
use words of bitter reproach. At last, dur
ing a "Caudle lecture," the unhappy man
retaliated, using rough, ungentlemanly words.
Thereupon the high-spirited bride arose,
saying that she wished to' get some water,
left the house, and hid in the tall grass
growing near. The husband fearing
that some ill had befallen her, soon
commenced searching for his wife,
then aroused the neighbors, and finally
started for her friends. It seems that after
.the coast was clear she walked a mile in her
night-dress, without bonnet or shoes, but
gleefully musing overtire fright and punish
ment she was giving licr "worser half." Soon
after daylight she appeared at the home of a
sister, who afterward sent for her clothes.
To cover the disgrace and ridicule of the
midnight escapade, her friends reported all
manner of improbable stories of abuse to
which she had been subjected. With the
help of these rumors, they succeeded in stir
ring up the mob part of the population to
such an extent that for a time the life of the
deserted husband was in danger.
—The Colorado Register says there, are few per-
Fone in that Territory whose incomes are loss
than one thousand dollars a year.

The deinand for money this week has been more
active and the rates continue 5®53¢ per cent. on Go
ventments and 6®lo per cent. lor mercantile obliga
tions of undoubted character.' Business is improving
slowly.- There is a general Impression to the effect
that the fall trade will be active and brisk, and, also,
that there will be a general reduction in prices. This
opinion is chiefly founded upon the prospect of a proa
perons harvest, and it is probably, to some extent,well
founded. The bountiful crops secure us a plentiful
supply of food_ and, avert the evils of a scarcity, the
effects of which would have proved most disastrous to
every interest at the present time. The Stock market
was steady and firm this morning at about yesterday's
figures, but not very active. In Government securities
no sales were effected. 111% was the beet bid for the
Coupon 6's, 'Bl ; 113 y, for the '62's; 110% for the '64's;
110% for the 6's of '66;108 for the Policies; 102% for
the Ten-forties; 107% for the February, and 107% for
the June and July Seven-thirties. The movements in
Canal stocks continue of a limited character. The
only sales were in Schuylkill Navigation Preferred at
30. Railroad stocks are quiet. Reading Railroad was
firm at 52.66. 12734 was bid for Camden and Amboy
Railroad. Philadelphia and Erie Railroad changed
hands at 27%, and Northern Central Railroad at 44.
Bank securities are but little sought after. The only
sales were of North America at 239. In Pareringer
Railway and Coal stocks but little doing, but prices
are generally without change.
