AR DAVIS' FUTURE. I understood it, to be Mr. Davis' intention in duo time to give to the world his version of the polit ical affairs in which he so pro ininontly figured. lie will employ a phonographic amanuensis to facilitate his labors, and as ho has already accumulated a goodly store of materials, its )ublication may not be long delayed. Mr. Davis is blamed for many things rospoetigir which it will be inter esting tobear him in his own de fence. 1 know he is consurod by many in the South for the pro. longation of .the war. I have again and again heard it said by Southerners that after the battle of Gettysburg, General Le urged measures of" comtipromise to the end of obtaining peace, which Mr. Davis persistently opposed. The fain ly of Ar, Davis is still in Eng land. Of his own futuro he did not speuk positively_ IIis friends believe that the United States will be his future home, and that he will not ret.urn to Europe, save to bring home Mrs DAvis and his children.

'l'ho conclu'tsive proof of the identity of Francis and Junius is as follows: Upon the publicalion of' the fae similes of the fitmous ''feigned hand" of Juntiius, at Mirs. Ring (nee Giles,) of' Youngsbury in Es sex, at once recog;nized it as the handwriting of' au anonym OuS note which sho had receivod in 1770 at Bath, with a copy ot' ve' ses closed writt.onn in a different and unknown hand. From va rious circunstain.e4, she had al ways believed and stated that this noto caem from Philip Francis; but as the cveidence on that point i'as not satisf4ettory, the Story at tracted no great att tention. *Up oil the publication of' the ".Lilb of Sir Philip Francis," about two years ago, however, two lines of the verses in question were found qloted in a letter from Richard Tiiglnina, of Philadelphia, (elder brother of the late Chief J sltice Tilghman) to Fi'raicis, dated Sep toiber 29, 1773, in i manner plinly implying that 'nneis would r'ecoguize them. T1his led to a renowed examination of tho origimal papers, wvhen it, was fbunld that the eopj' of Vel'ses wa. i Til qh tt. a I' s riandwr'itinq! Now, Til'iiman, As appeartS from1 the 'I ifb of Ft'ancis," while a law stu ent in the Temple in 17G9 and 1770-the two most i)portalt years of tie Jtilus perio'l---was the itilatio friend of' Francis, who wahs is near relition, and was with Iii in at Bath at the time the verses wveru deliv'ere'd. '.l'hose facts led to a most cltroful exami liation, by the first exports in London. of tho original note in which the versos were enveloped, and they unhesitatingly prononnee it to be, beyond all doubt., written in the "foigned hand" of' Junius. It follows that Junius was the writer of' the note. Iis friend Tilghman wrote the verses (no (loubt copied t.hom forl' Francis;) andl wih en, three years aftl;'war1, we find him quoting the verses in a letter to I"i'ancis, the conclusion is il'repressiblo that one of the two wrote the note which enveloped tlhem. But the writer of the unto was Juni8us, which Tilghman could not. have boen, because, among a thousand otherl reasols, the J ulins letters began before his arrival in England, and 'onitinuled after) his reotur1n to Amerciiea. It fbollows, thieref'ore, that Francis was tihe wr'iter ; and thus, -after t,ho secret has heeln kept inl im)poe-trablo my0oryfo julst aCI ctiiry, a tr'iv ia? aceiden t has led to itsi d iscov cry and t.o the absoluto demon.. stration that, Fraisiii was 1Juiuls.
