pledge ourselves that our* feeble uid shall fiat bo
withheld in bringing Mr. Davis do ths bHr of jus
tice, and nuking him answorabl? for his crime?i
whenever he is proporly'indicte.d.
We presume, bowevor, that ibero is no enc
who seriously believes (but the President ha?
made himself Hubie to an iiapoanhni -nt ; but it
may be said lhat his offences, while thoy do not
warrant nn? impeachment, are jo' ?f such a ??>ri:.

they are injurious to the coun'ry ?nd onght tn be
reformed. TLis may or may not he true : but
let us ndmitfor a moment .it? truth, and then soc
-huw^ir this fact invy justify tthc course of Mr,
Davis' assailants. ?
Wo will suppose, then, that tho President is
guilty of conduct which, while it docs not mike
him obnoxious to an impeachment, is stili highly
njurious to the counlry, and should be reformed'
and the professed object of these, papera is to ef
.f ct this reformation. Tho question iben antes
aud u questim of vital importance-is the course
pursued by these papers tho one likely to effooi
tho proposed ebj.ct ? L? it sueb MS ordinary pru
dence and discretion would dictate? What is the
ease ? "You see a man doing wrong-you believe
that his ceuiso is iiighly injurious lo himself and
ihe C 'untry-r-you desire to turn him from tho er
ror of his way-and wba't course do you adopt?
What is the coursa that a wiso mau would ado?.t
? a this cuse, if ho truly and honestly desired to
romedy Ihe evil ? Ile would gu to thc mun alono,
or, if a personal interview was not practicable, he
would io some primate way appeal to th's man,'s
i good sousa and good feeling; in a frunk, kind
and respectful insnner, point out to him the errors
of his course, and tho reusons for altering it.-*
This he would be careful to do in such a wny as
not to excite the erring man's passions or p'?yu
diues, because it is known to all who have escaped
1 the nursery, that you have no influence with a
man after you have excited his displeasure and
prejudices. This statement must be self-evident
?o every enc. How does it apply to tl?o caso we
are considering-President Devi* and his assail
ants? What course ara thc/ pursuing, ahd-wi;b
what likelihood of doinjj goo*! to tho cun'ry?
They undertake to reform tho error* of the Pres
ident How? By private and friendly remon
strance? By fr.<nl;. kind and respectful appeals
thr?ug'i the press? N-i th er-anything eise on
the contrary. Fierce, bitter, unmeasured denuu
ciation is the means they adopt to reformt he Pres
ident Injustice, imbecility, obstinacy, want of
oouragc, and want of intellect, are tbs mildest
terms they apply to bim.
No?v wo would seriously ask, do editors pursu
ing this courso,' really oxpeet ti, effect any good
bj* this denunciation ? Do tbi-y thin? thu*. Mr.
Dlvis will be induced by vituperation to change
hist curso? Wc fear that theso gentlemen ai o
putting themselves in an awkward position be
fore thc world. The jincha ?table public will bc
apt to conclude that they arc sadly deficient in
' ihe iioccss.'.rj' sagacity to accomplish their end.
if that end bo tho public goo l : or tbat the means
used constitute really tho end in view-namely,
the denunciation of thc President
That Mr. Davis has made appointments cf in
competent tnen to office, wu do not at all-deny :
but it may bo that be bid bo better tuan to -put in
the place, and it is not surely expected tl at ho
.will create Generals if there uro none in the coun
try, or admitting that be had Lotter men, them wo
stiy ibat no ono supposes Mr. Davis to be infalli
ble-and donuneiaiioa will hardly mike Um so.
Wo now make boid to express tho opinion that
Mr. Davis has adiuiuisicred the Government with
great aud signal ability^ wo eveu presumo to
doubt if any of bis dcfuuiers could bar? conduct
ed it with moro wisdom. Ho . entered. upon his
office with an empty treasury', without a soldier
or a ship, with everj- port in his Govercmont
blockaded, without guns or ammunition, without
i shoes or clothing, or medicino, ur proper fond for
his army. Aud in this statu of preparation, ho
found himself engaged in a war of extermina
tion with ono of the most powerful, unscrupulous,
i blood-thirsty nations on euria. He has fought
tbo.cnemy two years and a bali; bo has now a va
liant and veteran aruiy, fully equipped and able
to meet the enemy upon any field; bo has erodit
i in Europe; wheo be asked for hf leen million Kng
1 lis h capitalists subscribed 75 million dollars ; he
1 hu already upon the high teas four war steamers,
and before January .viii havo throe times that
number. His Irlands may proudly ask : Are these
tho indica ti JU.S of a wea?, aud imbecile Chief Mag
istral?
If wc look to Europe, vbero wo may expect un
Impartial judgment, whatdo we hear? It was barely
two months ago that L.?rd Campbell Spoke of
President Davis kl thc House of Lords, iu tcru,s
which would have been a high eulogy upon ?ny
living mun. Such is tho cammoo Opinion of Mr.
.Davis in Europe, as expressed by the Press, holli
of England and France.
But the most sprious consideration it tho fact
that this deuunciatiou of thc President by tho
Press Is doing our country au incalculable injury.
We have shown that this denunciation cannot re
form the errors of the President, bulls laying tho j
axo at- tho root of our* strougtb. There is ono j
thing, and but one.thiug, thatcau-couquer us, and '
that is d intenti JU among ourtelvet. So long as we
remain a united people, we have nothing to fear;
wo can fight the enemy weeessfuily for a genera
tion'. But the effect of these continuai assaults
by newspapers upon tho President, is calculated to
uncottl tho public mind, J ad to beget distrust and
want of confidence'in the Government This leads
to doubts und.fears of our'abiiity to conteud with !
tho enemy, and finally to despair on tho part of '
out peopio-and thou mbmittion.
No people over carried on a war successfully !
j without confidence iu their Government, and thu .

Mississippi elong the Railroad fruin Jackson to
tbc Alabama Hue looks like 'Ibu middle secti'-n of

long leaf pino abounJ. Meridian is frequently
mentioned in tho pupers. Il is lOO miles West of
Selma, Ala, und at tho point where tho Mobiie

intel sect cueb ether. Selma, on thc Alabama
River, is us" largo as Columbia, and almost as pret
ty. Tho Li o-, .rumen t fun ntl rio?, aud uiuchino
shops here aro extensive, and iu a state of effi
cient operution. Montgomery is queen of the
Western Cities, and so situated as to be suscepti
ble of the finest embellishment, ami also of indefi

Legislature was in Sosrion. The assembled wis
dom of Alabama looked rospect.iblo, dignifu-d,
oomposcd, and quite comfortable in red plush
Si'ats nnd io summer -costume. As there was
nothing oa f/t? tapi* but local-iBills, I hud no
chmice lo witnets a display of either oratory or
Parliamentary tec-ties. By nu racuns should thc
tourist fail to go up into thc cupola if the Alaba
ma Capitol. For as ho takes in uf a glance the
panoramic view of city, river, vaillcy, cliff, and
the blue horizon of bills, aud mountain peuks in
the fur distance, he will feel bi* soul filled with
new aspirations, and his heart made moro capablo
of enshHuing and reverently keeping* "Love's'

Tbe 2nd Gent pia regiment arrived b*>relaat

ihem, numbering about 100, rank and file,
beaded by their Colonel, moved in soldierly
order and passed tbis telegraphic statio.u to

President Davis and hts Assailants.
We regret much to Sue a groking disposition
01 the part ?f many of jour papers to assail Pres- I
i lent Davis, ?Bd to destroy tho confidence of the
people iff his .idun?'.raiion. We m >st rcspcet
filly a:d dlspaasi .aately -pp^-wi to the geuthiai-n
OOudUCiilig these u>pors,'un J .vk what gool .be,
e^n reasonably expect io aneoujp'Lsh by ibis
course*.
Let us cmrider fif?t, what uro the eb.rgos
a,':iitf t ike Pr?sident, and ?rLat the evidence to
,u'.stanUile ih??>eharga?. Juugirg from thc
v...'loree .ir.d 0OC4'mUoUS raiur?. pf ibrsi at?.-cks-,
oat? would tuppos. tbat Prosith-u! "Davis *ns sure
ly guilty of high Crimes ai d misdemeanors against
.ho Constitution: If. in truth, he hns been guilty
.? violating biu oath of offiee, artd betraying thc
trust rep lied i:i bim by the ouuntry, wo shall ba
*-cond to none in demanding his punishment.
Dui if Co Prcidionl U thu.; gullly, tho Curstitu
tiou, we believe, points out thc mode in aliie'tr-be
s'raL bc dealt with. If, then, -theso gentlemen
iiavo ovidonoe of Mr. Davis' Built, ?et them give
luioTination, ned let. bim' bo impeached and tried
before the constituted authority. No man in this
country is beyond inc reach of thc lawfttndwe
pledge ourselves that our*, feeble uid shall out bo
a-itbbeld in bringing Mr. Da-vis* io ths bsr of jus
tice, and m.iking him answorabl? for his crimes(
whenever he is properly'indieted.
Wo presume, howevor, that ibero is uo enc
who seriously be'i.ercs that the President ha?
made himself liabie to an impoanhm nt ; but it
maj be said that his offoncoit, while they do not
warrant an) impeachment, are yo' ?f such a ;*ri
ous charactor as to demMidj. sou." notice-that
they are injurious to the eoun'ry and ought tn be
reformed. TLis may or mny not he true:'but
let us ndmitfor a moment .it? truth, and then see
huw^ir this fact invy justify the coursa of Mr_
Davis' assailants. ?
Wo will ?Uppum, then, that the President is
guilty of conduct which, while it docs not m?kc
him obnoxious to .in impeachment, is stilt highly
njurious to the country, and should be reformed i
and the professed cbjeet of these, papers is to ef
.f ci this reformation. Tho question ibeu arhes
aud u question of vital importance-is tbe course
pursued by liieso pap ors tho one likely to effoot
the proposed ebj.-ct ? L< it such ns oidinury pru
dence and discretion would dictate? What is tbe
cafe ? You see a man doing wrong-you believe
that bis couiso is bichlv injurious to himself and
the C 'untry-^you desire to turn him from the er
ror 01 his way-and wba'i course do you adopt?
What is tbe coursa that a wise man would adopt
<n this case, if he truly and honestly desired to
rom?dy the ovil ? He would go to tho man alono,
or, if a personal interview wu.? not practicable, he
would io some primate way appeal to this maia's
good souse and good feeling; in a frank, kind
|_ and respectful manner, point out to him tho errors
of his course, and tho reasons for altering it.-r
This he would be careful to do in such a wny as
not to excite the erring man's passions or p'??ju
dioes, because it is known to all who have escaped
the nursery, that you have no influeneo with a
man after you have excited his dipploasure and
prejudices. This statement must be self-evident
to every enc. How does it apply to tue c*?o we
are considering-President Davi?r and his assail
ants? What course are thc/ pursuing, ahd-with
what likelihood of doing good to tho eoun'ry?
They undertake to reform tho errors of tbs Pr?s
ident. How? By private and friendly remon
strance ? By fr.<nl:. kind and respectful appeals
ibrbug'i the press? N-Uber-anything ei.-e ou
the contrary. Fierce, bitter, unmeasured denun
ciation is tbe moana they adopt to refortut he Pres
ident. Injustice, imbecility, obstinacy, want of
uraje. uni wont of intellect, are tfc? mildest
terms they apply to bim.
Now wo would seriously ask, do editors pursu
g this course," really expect to effect any good
by this denunciation? Do tb;-y thin", thu; Mr.'
Divis will be induced by vituperation to change
his tcurso? Wc fe.ir that tbeso gentlemen aio
putting themselves in an awkward position be
fore thc world. Thc jinehaiitable public will bc
apt io conelude that they ure sadly deficient in
the nuccis.'.ry sagacity to accomplish their end.
if that end bo tho public goo l : or that the-steans
used constitute really tho end in view-namely,
the denunciation of tbe President.
TUat Mr. Davis has made appoinimesTts cf in
competent men to office, wu do not at all-deny :
but it may ba '.hat be lixil uo bttter Mian to J>ut in
the place, and it is not surely expected tl s.t bo
will create Generals if there arc none in thc coun
try, or admitting that be bad belier uicu, than wo
sjy that no ono supposes Mr. Davis to bo infalli
ble-and donuneiaiioa will hardly ai ike ld ia so.
Wo now make boid to express tho opinion that
Mr. Davis has administered the Government vtitb
great and sigual ab-lity? wo eveu presumo to
doubt if any of bis defuuiors could bai e conduct
ed it with moro wisdom. Ho . entered. upon his
oflieo with an empty trea.iury, without a soldier
or a ship, with every port in his Government
blockaded, without guns or ammunition, without
shoes or clothing, or medicino, or proper fond for
bis urtny. Aud iu this stalo of preparation, he
found hiniself engaged in a war bf extermina
tion with ono of the most powerful, unscrupulous,
blood-thirsty nations on earth. He hos fought
thocnemy two years and a half; bo has now a va
liant and veteran aruiy, fully equipped and able
to meet the enemy upon any field; bo hos crodit
iii Europe; when beasi.ed foriifieenmillion Eng
lish capitalists subscribed 75 million dollars; he
hos already upon the high seas four war sleamors,
and before January will havo tbrto times that
number. His mend:? may proudly ask : Are these
tho indieiitions of a weals, and iuiboeilo Chief Alag
istraro?
If wc look to Europe, v,hero wo may expect an
Lnpartialjudgmenl, wba'.do we .'tear? Itwasbarely
two months ago that Lord Campbell spjke of
President Davis in thc House of Lords, iu terms
which would have been a high eulogy upon ?nv
living mun. Buch i? tho common opinion of Mr.
Davis in Europe, as expressed by the Press, both
of Bnglund and France.
But the most sprious consideration is Ibo fae? |
that this denunciation of thc President by tho
Press ls doing our country au iac.leuiabio injury.
We have shown that this denunciation cannot re
form the errors of the President, but is laying tho
axo at- tho root of our" struugth. There is ono
thing, and but one-thing, that cauxouquer us, and
that is dissension among ourselves. Bo long as we
remain a united people, we havo nothing to fear;
wo oan fight the enemy we'oessfuily for a genera
tion. But the effect of these continuai assaults
by newspapers upon tho President, is calculated to
unrettl tho public mind, r^nd to b?get distrust and
