Nothing can excecd tho charm ot his manner,
which is simple, easy, and most tasoinating. He
conversed with mo tor a long time, and agreed
with liunjamin that the yankees did not really
intend to go tn war with England if ahe reoog*
ni^cij the 8outb; and he ttaid that, when the in
evitable crash came—and the separation was an
acoon]pliah(;d fact—the Scat« of Maine would
probat>ly try to join Canada, as most of th« in-
telUgeat people in that StuUi have a horror ol
bt ing “under the tbunib v>t Mastiaohusetts ” He
added, that Maine iuhabttud by a hardy,
thrilty, seaiaring population, with different ideas
to the pcop'e iu the other New Eaglaud States.
Wbcn I Hpoke to him of the wretched scenes I
had witncs-^cd in his own State (31issis!iippi,) and
of the miserable, almo:jt desperate, situation in
which I had found so many unfortunste women
who had bcou left behind by their male relations,
and when I alluded in admiration to the qoiet,
calm, uncomplai.ning manner in which they bore
their t^uftcrings and their grief, he said, with
much jllng, that he always considered silent
despair the mo!»t painful description of misery to
witiK in the same way that he thought mnte
in.s3-iity was the uii>«t awiut form of madnest.
iic confirmed the truth ot my remarks, that
a Conl’edcrato general is either oooRidered an
Admirablerritohton by tht auldiers, orelse abused
as cvtTything bad; aud he added, the misfortnQf^
^a*? shat it i.i absolutely Becessary, in order to In,

serve this popularity and indaenoe with his men-
who were, however, generally very willing to »o

With regard U> tho black-flag-and-no-quartor
agitation, he said people would talk a great deal,
and ovcti j'o into action determined to give n*»
quarter, ‘-lait,” he added, *‘I have yet hear of
Oonlcilwratc soldiers putting men to death who
have thrown down their arms atul held up their

lie told me that Lord Russell oonfessed that

liacl ]>res.si‘l hard upon the South; and Mr. £>»
vis a.ssert(‘d that the presiiure might have been
eiiualized, and yet retained its impartiality, if
flrcat Britain, instead of closing her ports, had
opened them to the prizes oi both parties; but 1
answeri'd that perhaps this might be overdoing it

When 1 took my leave about 9 o’clock, the
[*r -sident askod me to call upon him again. 1
■dob’t tbink it in po^sibla far »oy onfl tO h&T6 an

Whiie walking home, Mr l>enjamin told me
that Mr. Davis’s military instincts still predomi*
nated, and thnt his eager wish was to have joined
the army instead of being elected President.
Inuring my travels many people have remarked
to me that Jefferson Davis seems in a peculiar
manner adapted for his office. His military edu
cation at West Point rendered him intimately
acijuainted with the higher officers of the army
and his post of Secretary of War under the old
Government brought officers of all ranks under
hia izuiuediute personal' knowledge and super
vision. No man could have formed*a more ao-
ourate estimate of their respectlAe meri tg. This
is one of the reasons which gave the Confederates
such an immense start in the way of generals;
for having formed his opinion in regard to ap
pointing an officer, Mr. Davis is always most de-*
termined to oarry out his intention in spite ot
every obstacle His services in the Mexican
war gave him the prestige of a brave man and A
good soldier. His services as a statesman pointed
him out as the only man who, by his unfliaohing
determination and administrative talent, was able
to control the popular will People speak of any
mistortune happening to him as an irreparable
evil, too dreadful to contemplate.

A Nero Value of Sorghum —The inestimable
value of this troduction is only beginning to be
appreciated by our people. It 'nay not he gen-
orOly kiiown that the grain or seed constitute au
exc iJcnt and prolific brcadj*tuff, A correapoa-
dcnt writing tu uj on the subject, from Pattnns-
buig, says: “I had fifty bushels of the seed whieh
J ruiscd ta^t yc*,;r, and a short time ago 1 took sis
bushels to the laill and got it ground into fiour,
;tuil have been using it in ray family lor bread
for scvi'’-;il dfty>i. It inskos really good loal bread
and tight roliA, luit still bettor batter bread; ia
tiiut Way it can't be beat, if Laked in the ordinary
