Speech of Jefferson Davis at Rich
The leader of the traitors, JEEFEitsori DAY'S,
after his arrival at Richmond, on Wednesday
last, made a speech to the crowd of Secession
ists who surrounded him, in which he had the
impudence to say, ig I look upon you as the
last best hope of liberty; and in our liberty
alone is our constitutional government to be
preserved.” The basis of all republican free
dom must necessarily consist in the peaceful
triumph of the constitutionally-expressed will
of the majority in the selection of rulers.
The greatest danger to all republics consists
in the disposition of lawless and ambitious
men to attain power by farce contrary to law,
and in the event of their failure to gain su
preme control of a whole country to attempt
by filmy expedients and disguises, or by open
rebellioe, to divide it and to acquire a domi
nance in such sections as possess a majority of
people favorable to their cause. Bad men, in
all ages, have been only too ready to adopt.
devices of this kind, and this is the chief rea
son why so many republican experiments
have failed ; why the people of Europa have
been taught to believe that stable and esta
blished monarchical governments were ne
cessary evils to guard against the machi
nations of turbulent leaders; why the at_
tempts in Mexico and in the South American
States to imitate our example have, in most
Instances, proved lamentable failures ; and
why a large amount of intelligence, of self-con
trol, and of genuine patriotism are considered
absolutely necessary for the preservation
of republican institutions. Yet Jirszasos
Davis, as the avowed leader of the Southern
conspiracy, as the chief engineer of the most
wicked, causeless, unfounded, and malignant
Movement against free institutions and the
cause of human liberty that has ever beep
made since the world began, has still the
hardihood, with the fall knowledge of the load
of guilt that weighs upon him, and of the in
famy of his associates, to tell his co-conspira.
ton that be looks upon them scas the last
beat hope of liberty," and ci the only
agents by whom our constitutional Go
vernment can be preserved." It is difficult
for the imagination to conceive of a more in
famously untruthful position than that whisb
he this assumes. if he did not feel that the
mass of his audience were extremely ignorant
of all true ideas of constitutional liberty, and
so wrapped up in their attachment to the in
stitution of African slavery as to make pro
fessions of devotion to it the only standard
by which all political questions and the status
Of politicians should be determined, he would
not have dared to make so false and foolish au
assertion, even to his most devoted adherents.
Southern Opinions of the North.
A gentleman who hag recently travelled
through the Southern States, and conversed
with many of the people of that section, and
the soldiers connected with tbe Southern
aunty, says that they are 'utterly incredulous
In regard to the reports they hear from the
North in reference to the number of men
who have volanteered to serve the national
abuse, and the money and other resources at
our command. We are not astonished at this.
The masses of the Southern people are at beat
but poorly informed on any subject, and they
have for a long period been grossly deceived
by their leaders about the character and posi
tion of the Northern people. They have been
taught to believe that nearly all our wealth was
derived
At a_ that :the moment she einamr against
what was supposed to be her capacious purse,
oar very existence would be endangered, and
that we could no more subsist without her
lordly and munificent patronage than live
without air or wafers The evident delu
sion involved in this doctrine will, however,
speedily be dissipated, even though the se
verest financial blow we have suffered arises
from the fact that hundreds of milliona of dollars
in merchandise and in Money that the North,
out of her abundance, has advanced to the
South in her thinly-veneered poverty and des
titution, is not now collectable, and that In
reality this haughty traitor section is at this
moment indebted to us for nearly all the signs
of prosperity which exist throughout Its do
minions. .
Another fallacy extensively believed at the
South is that while the chivalry" are all mo
dels of courage, the people at the North are
essentially cowardly, and utterly incapable of
encountering in arms the Southern forces. The
course of events, up to this period, if it could
be well understood in the South, would go far
to destroy this tayorite idea, but a pitched
battle or two are, perhaps, necessary to en
tirely eradicate it. It is said that when one of
the fugitives from Alexandria had retreated
as far as Manassas Gap !unction, he met there
a vaporing South Carolina soldier who ex
pressed an earnest desire for a hand to
baud conflict with five or six of the New York
Zonares ; but his Alexandria friend gently re
marked, "I have seen them, and can assure
you that one would be quite sufficient to mo
=pollee your attention." If brag and bluster
could decide the fate of a battle we should be
completely at the mercy of our antagonist',
but, unfortunately for them, the argument
henceforward is to be conducted with more
substantial weapons.
Mr. Ressurz says, in describing the in.
scriptiona upon the tents of the soldiers who
surrounded Fort Sumpter at the time he was
at Charleston, that the favorite names were
such as , 5 the lion's den," cg the tiger's lair,"
at the eagle's nest," cg Mare delight," &e.
AU of which indicates a threatening brag
gadocia spirit, which would be very effective
in the old Chinese style of warfare of fright
ening men by hideous faces, loud threats, and
terrible noises, but which will be found of no
avail against the well-drilled, hardy, and brave
regiments of our Northern troops.

ly balanced as to whether he was on this or on
the other aide of the river Styx; whether he
bad fallen a victim to his rashness at Charles
ton, during the attack upon Port Sumpter, or
had survived that conflict. Scarcely were
these doubts solved, by'a general admission
that he was still iu the land of the living, be
fore perplexities arose as to the particular
locality he intended to honor with his pre
sence, and what gang of Southern ttdare
devils" he proposed to lead on to destruc•
Sion. One day he was in South Carolina, an
other at Montgomery, on the next he was
certainly known to be at Norfolk, while on
another it was understood he was at Rich
mond, and hourly expected to make a descent
upon Alexandria. One ot the latest and ap
"parently most reliable statements is that on
the 28th day ot May he arrived at Memphis,
to direct operations there, and that hereafter
he will have charge of the movements of the
western wing of the traitor army. Wherever he

given to JEFFMON Davis, but the block
sding fleets in the gulf and along the Atlantic
enlist will be more likely to transfer it Into
New York and Philadelphia, as contraband of
war, than permit it to be bartered in the
streets of Liverpool and Manchester.
Stripped of its rhetoric and nonsense, we
consider this speech of kir. COBB the most
deplorable statement of the Southern rebel
lion which we have read. We begin to un
derstand more fully the true condition of the
Southern people. If Mr. Conles address to
his fellow-conspirators means anything, it
means that their counsels are divided; that
they are trembling 'before the majesty of a
patient, long-enduring, but now a justly angry
/forth; that they haws anters Into a rebellion
without counting its cost and its perils, and,
finding themselves unequi to its presestition,
they are preparing for a desperate and de-
spairing contest. With these troubles at the
threshold, what may these deluded people not
expect in the progrera of the war Which they
have forced upon the nation ? Without
money, without men, without commerce,
without a market for their crops ; with a rest
teas, dissatisfied, and dangerous element of
society in their midst; without the sympathy
of a single nation in tho family of nations ;
with hetdttiney and tear in their counsels at
home; without even a cause to rally the hearts
of their people—it is hard to conceive a
prospect more dismal than that which opens
to the view of the Rebels in the Southern
Gonfederaey.

The Confessions al a Commutator.
It le impossible to rejrits tbs. financial

Lie experievce at Washington, and accu.4.
i ng iy properly appreciate it. Many of his
theories are novel, and must not be too rlgid:y
c riticised, bat, nevertheless, the ex-Secretary
is a very great man. There is but one other
man living of whom he may feel jealous, and
that is Brigadier• General Jona B. FLOYD, ex-
Secretary of War. In the material points of
their relative greatness, we can, of course, de
tect a marvellous similarity ; but impartial
justice compels us to give the laurels to COBB.
FLOYD only stole the moveables,—and did so
in such a bungling manner that we actually
regretted the genius of JACK SHEPPARD. Coma
rose to the demands of the occasion, and de.
pleted the Treasury in such a manner that it
was almost impossible to replace the guns and
ammunition removed by his unscrupulous
partner. These exploits could only meet with
ono reward—and their authors have received
it.
Mr. Cons was last heard from, on the 22d of
May, in the town of Atlanta, Georgia. He
made a speech, which we have before us in a
Southern newspaper. We have no doubt the
speech is authentic, for the is loud cheers"
and gg prolonged applause " are scattered
through it with so much abundance and inge
nuity that we cannot fail to recognize at once
the mastar-hand of the distinguished author.
The most material fact of his address was the
announcement that the Confederate Congress
bad adjourned to meet at Richmond on the
20th of July. Mr. COBB then tells us that the
reason which led the Congress to take this step
was, to use his own poetic phrase: gg We felt
that her cause was our cause, and that if she
fell, we wanted to die by her;" which ex
planation assures us that Mr. COBB is deeply
impressed with the uncertainty of human life,
and the immense resources and determination
of the Republic. The ex-Secretary evidently
anticipates an early call at Richmond, for he
also tells W 3,111 a molo dramatic manner, which
would have made his fortune in a minor thea
tre : 4' When the hour of danger comes, we
will lay aside the robes of legislation, buckle
on the armor of the soldier, and do battle be.
side the brave ones who have volunteered for
tho defence of our beloved South ;" where
upon, of course, there were gg loud cheers."
as The anxiety among our citizens," says
Mr. Cons, " is not who alail go to the wars,
but who shall stay at home." Thls reminds
us of the conscription days of the Emperor
NAPOLEON, when a similar anxiety prevailed
among the people of France, and gives wp an
enlarged opinion of the prudence of the
Southern people. Then we have Mr. Coss in
melo- drama again. "" In Congress, the other
day, I told them that if no other arm was
raised to defend Virginia, noble old Georgia,
proud in her love of independence, would rise
up to a man, and, crossing to the southernmost
bound of Abolitionism, would say to LINOoMI
and his myrmidons, g Thus far, traitor, shalt
thou come, but no farther.' [Tremendous
applause.]" All of which is sublime, espe
cially the gg tremendous applause," and sug
gests a little innocent reflection. Why should
Mr. Conn inflict his Scriptural rhetoric on the
Southern Congress ? Is this boasted unani
m-ty, after all, a deception ? Are the South
Carolinians and Louisianians hesitating about
crossing the James river, that Georgia should
volunteer singly for the fray ? Has Mr. PERCY
Prawn, abandoned his Ideas of reposing in
the capital, and, instead of unfurling the
Palmetto from the White House, are we to
understand that the " heroes , ' of Fort Sump
ter and Fort Pulaski now simply intend to
content themselves with a position on the
the as southernmost bounds of Abolitionism ?"
The confessions of the Secretary make us cu
rious.
Graduallylir. Conn approaches his element,
and we have him at length in the financial as
pect of the question. 44 We not only need
soldiers," he says, a but we must have ties
sure to carry on this war." Very true. Wa
can't have a war without soldiers, and we
can't have soldiers without money, and, ac
cording to the ex Secretary, the South is in
need of both these material elements. It
wants everything, it seems, but officers ; and
yet, amid all its necessities, we see a degree of
magnanimity which can hardly be appreci
.aed. When governments want money they
do not genera:kr.-- .-.-_nniited_expe
rience of human nature has impressed us with
the conviction that a man will take all he can
honestly get, and especially waea
in need. We find, at last that welVe mistaken,
and are under obligations to Mr. COBB for dis
pelling the impression. "Private contribu
tions have been offered to a vast amount," he
says, but the Government does not require
contributions from Individuals. No donations
are necessary." An ordinary mind would quail
before the problem in political economy this
statement presents ; but in i lr. Conn we have
no ordinany mind, and see how readily he
solves it : cs I will tell you what you may do.
Those of you who raise large crops of cotton,
when your cotton is ready for market, give it
to your Government at its market value, receive
its bonds, and let it sell yourproduce to Europe
tor the specie to sustain our brave 'boys' in
Virginia. This was agreed on at Montgomery,
and we promised to throw out the suggestion,
that the people might think about it." ,
This suggestion, which was not received 1
with "tremendous applause," also induces
another train of reflection. Where are all
those enthusiastic rebels who took the fifteen
million loan at par? Where are the faithful,
honest "chattels" who begged to have their
little accumulation of hard-earned gold
changed into bonds ? Then, again, why not
pay the brave ef boys" in Virginia with bonds?
if they are anxious to die for the Old Do
minion, they might easily be persuaded to
receive her bonds, and if the people are so
desirous of enjoying the blessings of a Confe
derate Government, they will surely forego
the privilege of circulating Northern gold and
silver. There is another consideration, also,
which escaped the mind of Mr. COBH. What
is the use of cotton when the South has no
Magnanimity of the North.
One of the sublimest spectacles this world
aa
has ever beheld, deeply fraught with moral
significance, is the exalted and honorable
magnanimity of the Northern soldiery, as ex
kAhtted ~in every step of this memorable na
tionaln - z i t an .. cture. If Southern statesmen
d p
were not hoplesaly abandoned
to a most deplormic, judicial blindness, they
could not fail to discei..;t. and to ground the
weapons of their rebellion, s.a return to their
homes, like good and loyal cltizenb,4, pun,,
the avocations of peace and industry.
Beginning with Fort Sumpter, how patient
and iforbearing was the Government to
wards the misguided Charlestonians, exercis
ing towards them the gentleness exhibited by
an over-indulgent parent towards a wayward
and spoiled child I lied Goverment been so
disposed, the redoubtable BEITIREtunn could
not have laid one stone upon another, in the
erection of his offensive batteries, but the hot
shot and shell of the gallant ANDERSON would
have dispersed him and his rebel band, as chaff
is scattered by the rude blasts of the whirlwind.
The Government, however, forebore—waited
patiently and long, expecting that right and
reason would resume their empire—and, alas I
at last fell a victim there to its own noble gen
rosity.
The same is true of Fort Pickens. It was
in the power of the United States officers to
have broken the egg of danger while in the
process of incubation; and sent the rebels
howling over the sands of Florida. But here,
too, they have been dealt with as kindly as any
fond nursing -mother ever dealt with a per
verse and angry : progeny. So that, if Basco
and his rebel band shall now take Pickens, they
will owe it ten thousand times more to the
generous Indulgence of the United states au
thorities than to any courage or prowess of
their own.
Look next to Baltimore. Bad the South
been in the place of the North, under such
monstrous and aggravated provocationi, her
unofiending citizens barbarously murdered in•
the streets, when they gained the ascendency
they would have raked such a city from pillar
to post, leaving not one stone upon tbe other
to tell the tale. But behold the generous and
humane forbearance of the North! With
entire possession of the city by its troops, and
with Fort ilicilenry commanding its every
street and house, it remains to this hour unin
jured and unmolested. Nay, more than this.-.
It has become the happy recipient of unnum
bered favors from the hands of the very men
whose companions were slaughtered in its
streets! Glorious victory! worth more _than
thousand battles, had they even equalled
Marathan and Waterloo;
Then, again, look to Alexandria. A brave
leader of Northern troops is basely assassi
nated at mid.day, for no other offence than
the removal of a hostile flag under the very
shadow of the Capitol of our country f The
comrades of the fallen hero-martyr, by thou.
sands, hold possession of the city, with its int.
mense public and private resources, and at
their mercy are all its streets of handsome
houses, accommodating more than eight thou
sand MIS. Under such, a provocation, run•
ming like burning liquid over every fibre of
the soul, what would our Southern brethren
have done ? We hesitate not to say, they
they would have reduced such a place, ren
dered memorable by such deeds, to ashes, be.
fore the setting of the sun. But, by the sub
lime magnanimity of Northern troops, of Zeman.
dria stilt stands, and, if its citizens will only
cease from their wicked rebellion, they can
return to their homes, and not a hair of their
heads will be injured !
These displays of the magnanimity and for
bearance of the North, when its brave troops
have had it fully in their power to upturn the
strongholds of the rebels, as with devastating
ploughshares, we point to with feelings of
mingled pride and exultation. With the irre
sistible logic of incontrovertible facts, they
refute the affirmation, so assiduously plied
upon the Southern mind, that the Northern
troops'are nothing more nor less than so many
Goths and Vandals bent upon invading their
country, and plundering and pillaging their'
property. A baser and fouler misrepresenta
tion was never conceived or uttered, and we
must be greatly in error if the masses of the
South do not soon discover how egregiously
their ambitions and designing leaders have
betrayed and deceived them, and if they do
not turn their weapons upon Mem, instead of

THE DEPOT EUILDINgS DESTROYED
WASHINGTON, June 2 —From a messenger Jo•
rived direct from Aequia Creek this morning by the
steamer Anacostia, the following foots are obtained
rotative to the °outwit yesterday with the batteries
at that point.
The engagement on Friday commenced as here
tofore stated, and basted two hours. Yesterday It
was renewed, and continued twioo that length of
time.
The lower or beach battery, which bad been so
eseenttally damaged the day previous, had, in the
meantime, been repaired by the rebels, whose
force is supposed to be about 2 000 strong The
strainer Freeborn yesterday approeobed about two
mile- from the shore, early in the afternoon, and
tired four or five shots, when the Pawnee entered
into the oonlijot, taking a position nodes to the
land.
For the first two hours the fire from the shore
' ,batteriee, was very brisk. but was returned with
more expedition by the Pawnee. Daring the ex.
pedition she fired one hundred and sixty shells,
hone of which was seen to explode immediately
'over the heads of the rebels whe were working the
battery. Tho observer, through a telescope, saw a
number of the rebels °lorded sway in wagons
During that time the movement among the rebels
was exoesdingly brieli. The Freeform lodged
three shells in succession in the beech battery.
perceptibly damaging the works; which had also
the effrot of greatly diminishing the fire.
Tile Freeborn received two shots, one of while&
passed through the cable,damaging some of the
orookery, but not the vesse l, except nicking a pee.
sage through the bulwarks of alight consequence.
The Paunsee received eight or nine shots, but all
too high to inflict much damage. One struck the
maintopesill yard, which was thereby unsinng
Another grazed the 'neiseen meat head, and one
passed through the hammock netting'. It Is the
opinion of the officers on board that had the rebels
'been provided with gond gunners file vessels would
probably hurls been struck. Some of their shots
passed over the mast head to the Maryland shore.
The Anmeostim returned bere this morning, the
Patirnee and Freeborn hauling off beyond the
range of the enemy's fire. '
The tug Yankee, which. went down with de
spatches on Friday, fired a few shots only, not be
ing prepared for a long contest_
The railroad depot and buildings on shore at the
landing are destroyed.
The &aims to the bomb battery is not consid
ered permanent, as the rebels can soon repair it.
It is safe to say that at least ten or twelve were
killed on the part of the rebels, and ills not known
how many may be wounded.
All the officers engaged in the fight concur in
the opinion that the rebels have a rifled Cannon,
and perhaps several, and, in all, it is supposed
thers'are about eight guns mounted.

ALSXANDBIA. June 1 —lt is reported that at
daybreak this morning Company B of the 2d U. d.
Dragoons, Lieut. Tompkins, while reconnoitring
in the neighb .rhood of Fairtax Court Rouse, 12
miles from Alexandria, were fired upon by the
rebels The dragoons charged four theca through
the village and were fired upon by the rebels con
cealed in the bases, Lints. Tompkins and Gar.
don both had horses shot ander them. Three other
horses was wounded, two teen are missing, and
three wounded. it is estimated that the dragoons
killed from fifteen to twenty rebels. The dragoons
captured five prisoners, and left them at the camp
of the 28th New York regiment
These details are furnished by a gentleman ar
rived from the camp.
Waseinaroir, June I.—An engagement certainly
occurred in the vicinity of Fairfax Court Rouse,
in which four of the United States troops were
killed, and twenti.leven of the rebels killed and
wounded, according to the Moist report.

ordered them to halt, when they replied that they
were Captain Powell's cavalry company. Not
deceived by this, the Captain ordered his men to
arms. The dragoons then fired a volley, by which
the captain was instantly killed.
The rebels rushed out in undress and great dis
order, and fired on the dragoons at random. The
dragoons charged through them, and, having fired
three volleys, retreated The rebels pursued them
For a diataii6l. krabsequently, ono of the rebels re
turned to camp with two dragoons as prisoners,
with their horses. Williams is certain that the
number reported as killed in the Waahingten Star
is greatly exaggerated. At the roll call of the
Warrenton Ritlea, this morning, fifteen men did
not answer to their names, but their absenee was
en amount of being on a picket guard and other
duties during the skirmieh.
Messengers were sent to Centreville,Where there

that the dragoons were but the advanced guard of
a great army.

A heavy rain commenced falling OM evening.
There are no andelpatione of an attack. The

reports having

The earnest hope entertained by many at the
North that. Secession would dwindle away before
the United Buttes forces, and loyalty raise its head,
is not reassured by interviews had with the promi
nent °Weans of Alexandria, who express their
grievances in the strongest language. The tames
of the command here exert themselves to the ut.
most to create a better feeling, with only partial
success. The experience gained from this occupa
tion will doubtless lead to great dieorimination in
the future relations of the troops. For this pur
pose. Col. Stone, while in command here, gained
great favor among the citizens, for his efforts to
subdue some unruly spirits among the military,
whose conduct- had an injurious effect on the mo

A only rumor prevailed yesterday, which is un
deratood to have found its way to the rebel (tamps.
It was that Col. Wilcox, of Michigan, the late
commandant here, bad joined the rebels. Another
rumor, today, was that twenty of the Michigan re
giment had been taken prisoners.
One of the ZIGIEVIIII le said to have been shot last
night at Cloud's mills, arising probably from the
occurrence of the previous night.
Lieut. Homer, of Michigan, reports that there
are 200 barrels of flour in Young'a mills, beyond

Tuttle, of Richmond.
A battalion of regular cavalry, and a battery of

The 300 barrels of dour in the mill at Hunting

In conseguence of the alarms every night, the
military are continually on the alert.
The fortifications on Sutter's Hill are progress

There is no doubt they might effectually blockade

but I do think It is vary important that her Ma.

to the dootrine that the United Mateo are to ley

that universal biookade would be recognized by
her Majesty's Government, and that all her Bs•

Which is not piracy by the law of nations, or by

The Northern States, therefore, must not be

they will not be entitled to claim the protection of
their Government—that they are at liberty so to
