f the cause, he naturally feels himself at liberty to make as many blunders as possible, assume the military control, put incompetent generals in positions of vital importance, and sacrifice Confederate armies to death and captivity. We differ from General Sherman in one thing. We never heard before that it did any good to pray for the Devil. Certainly, such a Devil as Jeff. Davis is past all possibility of salvation. We would much better pray for such saints in the flesh as Lincoln, Seward, Sherman, Turchen, Butler, Hunter, etc., who, though the salt of the earth, have their little imperfections, and are not quite angels; at least, we see, as yet, "no signs of wings sprouting from their shoulder-blades."

It is generally conceded that the refusal of Mr. Seward to grant the request of the Confederate committee was just, and to have been expected, although it is thought that he miMr. Seward to grant the request of the Confederate committee was just, and to have been expected, although it is thought that he might have couched his refusal in language somewhat more palatable. "John Bull" dislikes being snubbed so ungraciously, and the severe taunts in that now famous epistle, well merited as they were, somewhat disturb the equanimity of that irascible old can find but too many recipients."
