Jefferson Davis, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the Confederate States of America. He made his advert into Richmond at 25 minutes past 7 o'clock yesterday morning, havinough brief, were to the point, and convinced every one who heard them that Jefferson Davis was the man for the occasion.

But we profess to be governed by laws and a written Constitution, which takes away the power of confiscation for treason or a we must obey the laws of the Union, especially its fundamental laws contained in the Constitution. Are not those at the North who seek to subvert it as much traitors as the secessionists at the South?" Is not this exquisite? The idea of "Davis and his cohorts" confiscating property! And the New York Herald talking about "the Constitution," which every one knows is an unparliamentary phrase in the North. If Bennett is less ferocious than the open robber Greeley, it is only because he
