President Davis.

The departure of President Davis for the seat of war affords a grand contrast to the conduct of Lincoln, Seward and the other Black Republican leaders. They who have caused all this peril and disorder refuse to share its dangers with their countrymen, but leave their wretched dupes to bear the whole brunt of the tempest. The Southern President repairs to the battle-field with the first gun of the invading army, encountering the perils of battle and the more terrible hazards of capture, with all the heroism of a great, generous soul. We should think that even the Northern people would blush at the contrast which Lincoln presents.
