' ; , ; What has Mr. Davis said that was foolish or untrue?: .Ilia work .on. the war has been -praised by some of the ' ablest papers in the North, 'and nq lably by the im. He may not write or speak what Northern meti- like to hear but. he speaks and writes word of "soberness and truth." " He.voices : the opinions' of; nine-tenths' of ! the mem' who t stood : by the ; South ; in troublous and.'soiil-tryingtimes.; Mr. Davis does not desire another war. No man in the South desir4s another war. But he does riot believe in the demoralizing and degrading doctrine that might makes right, or that the war settled the, great question of the right of the South to withdraw from ),he Union as H.he Constitution taught prior to 1861i2t In mother words, Jklr. pavis belietes ; in i hij 4 soul that ihe South had. a just and righteous pause in; 1861, and he does not believe that the results' of the war destroyed pr impaired1 that justice -and that Hgbteousness. iWe never met a well -lnformed,:-true; Southern man; who did believe it.; ",We do not know one' man w hoi" was loyal to 'the South in 1861; ;wbo:doea not -agree, -with Mr. Javisjin;,13'8'3;fr ;';.";;';' :.
