Washruardu, Dee. 28, 1868.=- - -The last am.
nesty, proclamation of President Johnson, in
which he wended to pardon Jeff. Davis; Breck
ir.ridge, and all the other leaders of the rebellion
has created considerable discussion as to its pre!
else effect upon the-case of Davis. It Is argned
by some gentlemen of acknowledge.d legal talent
that the President cannot pardon Davis by, a
yeneral proclamation, as. Jeff. has .been indicted
und is awaiting trial before a competent Court,
and that if the President pardons him,
it must be by a special pardon, as in the
1.'2513 - of scores of counterfeiters and other con
'timed felons whom Johnson has let loose upon
the community by his wholesale exercise of the
pardoning power, The Democratic secesh friends
of Davis are considerably exercised upon this
point, and they are already suggesting that upon
the reassembling of the , Supreme Cogrt in -Jan
uaryrthe sureties-of-Davis - shotild - surrender -him
te the custody of the Court, have him, temporarily
committed, and then they propose to apply for a
writ of habeas corpus, to get an opinion from the
Court as to how far theists amnesty proclamation
covers the case of the , arch traitor. They
are considerably exercised about it, and
do - not by any means feel assured
that he will be, released underfthe last "linperial
ukase." They are anxious, hoWever, to get a de
cision front the Supreme Court at as early a date
as possible so that lilt should be decided that the
terms of the proclamation do not' apply to him,
they will then have time' a procure a - special par
, don from Johnson_before-hlti_term Office ex
pires,`so as to'ciure all defects. -
Theiriendn of the President are very anxious
to make it appear that the leading Radicals cor
dially-approve,:of Johnson's last act of -forgive
nees, in pardoning Davis, but from', diligent in
quiry, I am forced td the conclusion that
the ' , leading — Republicans" who ap- •
prove of this • act , - are, myths, for
I have yet to meet one whodoes not denounce it
as a fitting close to Johnson's infamous truckling
to the leaders of the rebellion, in order, to assist
him in his asplrationa hereafter. He ;:was the
man who proclalinci that"treason should be made
odious;" bat instead of doing this' he has done all
In his power to make it respectable and honored,
and would now sooner take to his bosom the red
banded leaders of the rebellion than lie.would the
men who did all in their power to crush the
traitors; and by a singular,infatiation - hc now
considers the Dolma men as "traitors," and, the
rebel leaders as "estimable, law-abiding citizens,

The N. Y. Times ap.yos: • - • .‘
The:death bY tktilelde of- the - repitted widow Of-
Mr; Augustus Mama, breaker of Charles Dick
ens., at CideagOOß rpPorted by telezraph. We:
believe that the wife of Mr. Augustus Dickens
,:la
in England, and has been:supported
by Charles Dickens ever since her husband came'
to this country, in. company with the lady whose
deceaseis announced.
The Chicago Republican of ...veatetilAY contabis
the 1011ov/fog:
Among the many gifts possessed by Charles
Dickens es a wondrous delineator of. the various
phases of humanity, the one of a ll others in
which be pirticUlarly Atcelis perhaps,_ the por
trayal of scenes In which the wearied soul of
some fired earth weinderer, breaks from its mor
tal fastenings and floats to its rest. The lifting
of old Betty Higden "as high as heaven," the
beautiful touching style in which the death of
Little Nell Is depicted, and the thrilling manner
with which. Sidney Carton is represented as freely
giving his young life to save the husband of the
woman he loved, are all notable instances of the
great novelist's descriptive powers in the line men
tioned. It is stated that he never wholly invents
any of his characters or scenes; that they are all
merely altered representatives of people; hat ac
tually exist, of events that have really transpired.
If such is the case there is a possibility that had
Mr. Dickens been suddenly dropped into Chicago
Christmas morning, he might have found all the
materials ready at bend for an excellent story in
his own peculiar vein, without having to go very
tar outside of his own family. The incident in
question would hardly have furnished him the
requisite points for a Christmas carol; a favorite
theme of his just at, this season of the year, for
no less a subject than the death; under very pe
culiar circumstances, of his brother's widow,
would have here claimed the attention of his fer
tile fancy and facile pen.
Al the lime of Mr. Dickens's late trip to this coun
try it was generally announced through 'the pub
lic journals that he had a sister-in-law residing in
reduced circumstances in Chicago, and, although
the assertion was often deniee by the greater por
tion of the Eastern press, it was stills fact, and
when the distinguished literary visitor turned his
fuce toward England again, almost the only blot
upon his conduet in America was his steady ig
noring of his Chicago relative, and his persistent
refusal to visit her.
Mrs: Augustus N. Dickens has resided with her
three daughters for the past two years at No.
ass Clark street, and although not living in an
absolute condition of penury, It has been well
kno on that sbe-has'nct had the necassavy means
to sustain herself In the position she held in so
ciety prior to her husband's decease. For over
eight;months she has suffered severely from acute
neuralgic - pains in the head, end has been in the
habit of taking large doses of morphine to pro
duce-her requited amount of sleep.. Last Thurs
day, she was observed to be in great depression
of spirits, and in the evening requested one of
ber friends, a Mrs. Barnet, to step to a drug
store and procure some morphine forher, claim
ing to be hi great , distress from her old ma
lady. The drug' was obtained and on
retiring It , seems that she swallowed a much
greater quantity of it than usual, for at about Ii
o'clock the next morning she was found lying
dead in, her bed. The body was discovered by
Mr. Barnet, husband of the lady already men
tioned. 'He entered the house through the back-
Israyat - the — re - qttesrlitrii..
of — Dickenss child - tin;
who bad just returned from spending the night
with'ome of-their young friends, and being
able to get into their home through • the front
door, had applied to Mr. B. for assistance.
An Inquest was-held upon thq remains yester
day forenoon by Coroner Cleves, and 'a verdict
rendered to the effect that the deceased came to
her diath by an overdose of morphine adminis
tered by her own: hand. •

it will bo generally conceded that I have as mach

do so with the most unflinching determination

need not fear nut that I will bring him to a trial

rested arid locked up "Samuel Bowlea, Esq., of

DRAMATIC ACID
—Mrs. Scott-Siddons' re-engagement began auspi
ciously at the Academy of Dig; is last night. Much
Ado A bout Nothing was played to au audience larger
than hoe attended since the lady first made her ap
pearance. Mrs. Scott-Siddonif"Beatriee" was more
eatisfactory many respects than her_"Rosaliqd."
The part is not so difficult intrinsically, and there are
Precedents upon which an actress of ordinary powers
can model her performalice. Mrs. Scott-Siddona did
not depart in any measure from the conventional in
terpretations of the part. She has not genius, and
anything less than that could not contrive , to give
"Beatrice" the zest of novelty. To he sure. Mrs.
Scott-Siddons did venture upon two or three innova
tions, bnt they were not suggested either by excellent
judgment or gcod taste For ImPance,in the mameer
ade eceno with "Benedict," the chose—and he sec
onded the choice—to make it appear that "Benedict"
knew that she had penetrated hie dis"uise . So. Instead
of quietly enduring the pain of .her keen thrusts, as if
he did not know the victim,the young man who played
the' part last evening dodged chord the stage as if en
deavoring to escape, while she pursued, still torment
in; hfm is , novel; perhaps' it is ingenious, but it
is entirely contrarylo Shaaspeare's intention, for the
action is contradicted positively, both before and af
terward, by the text. In the chapel scene also, after
the wedding scene, where "Beatrice" urges "Bene
dict" to kill "Claudio," Mrs. Scott-Sikidons took
strange liberties with the text. "Benedict" kisses her
hand and then swears to challenge "Claudio." "Rise_
it again." says' Mrs. • BcottSiddons, extending her
dainty dexter hand. Then she strides toward the
door; she halts, turns around, and exclaluis: "Signor
• Benedict kill hint—dead!" Tbis may all be very nice
as a bit of heavy effect,, but it le very unjustifiable
egging.. If Mrs. Scott-Siddone will only master
Shakespeare's text as it is written, - she will do very
well. It is highly probable that William knew exactly
ashat he wished to have said. and with all due rever
ence for Mrs. Seott-Siddons' talent, we venture to ex
pees the opinion that she cannot Improve the text by
melting additions to it. If it is attempted in the fu
ture, however, vve hope there will be 'an avoid-trice of •
such tautological expressions as that given above.
. a man iff killed, ho is "killed dead ." If the mortuary
bueinees can be done 'titer any other fashion, the fact
has not be en made public. • • -
Mrs. Seottlilddons' reading of the part was some-
what better than that of her ••Rosallnd." In,the latter
portion of the play, particularly, was the improvement
marked. But there is a vast deal of room yet for the
accomplishment of better things; • She speaks too rap::
idly oftentimes ; her enunciation is not as distinct as
it should be, and, as wdhave said before, she fails
most invariably to empluwize the proper words in eon
tencee, and thus she robe them of teen force, and does
not amerced inlirinitingprittheir_trne repaning_SheL
