DAVIS AHfO Parson Brownlow gives a Brief Description of the Rebel Prison, and Expresses bis Opinion of the Chief. Chronicle, Feb. 25. It was hot to expected that the embodiment of treason jind cruelty who, presided over Executive inent of the defunct Confederacy would, remain quiel wh'en there was a chance of stimulating the Confederates in Congress to delend him against the charges made by ex-Speafcer Blaine. That Jeff; Davis is living, is a standing proof of the unprecedented, mercy of the great Republic ugainst which he was- guilty he most heinoua of all crimes.

He be. his country while officially- support it, he- helped organize and 3arry on a war against it, and in pursu- ng the objects- of this perpetrated crime in the decalogue; and hough capturediand entirely within the- jower of our Government at-, a time- Then anguish for the loss of the assassinated Lincoln was mingled, with indignation for the manner of his taking Johnson's proclamation, and he universal distrust of pointed.to Davis as a. probable jomplice, he still'lives to vaunt himself" as a hero, hypocritically pretend, to a. mercy he never exercised, and. abuse- the Government which so tar mistook, ts duty as-to spare his mere than worth- ess life.

In any other Government country OB the face Yf the-globe, he. would have been-as summarily disposed) of as he disposed of the Unicoa bridge-, mrners-of East Tennessee 1 early in the? War, and that he was not raide' an imple of will yet be a.sQ^rpp.'of'.trouble- to the American people, and possibly, necessitate the doin i' of.their work.overr jgain. 1 Of he and his-representativeah in Congress think they can lie in-, the teeth of' history, and, people believe that the horrors of Isle, and AnderSOnville are figinenta of" excited brains, misrepresentations of' the war period, or, so far as true, properly chargeable to the Upited Stntes Government and not to Jeff. Davis and his devilish Winder and Wurz. Davis, in his letter oh Elaine's Speech, has the to to the remembrance of the delegates sent by the Andersonville prisoners to Mr.

Lincoln is to "how willing" he wss to effect 'an exchange. One of these delegates responds in Philadelphia. -'Ledger" that he well remembers with, what cure- and caution they were to broach the subject to President Davis- through Post Commander General Winder, with statements not altogether accordance with facts, the only permitted to go through being that published in the New York "Herald" of September 18, very much diluted milk and water of a state of facts the Rebel authorities would not allow them disclese. The second resolution in that petition that the "mortality among: the Andersonville prisoners generated by various causes, such as change of diet, and want of proper exercise, is becoming truly frightful to contemplate," the writer says would more truly have stated the case, had it ascribed this mortality. unnecessary exposure, wilful neglect in preparing thfe food issued; and cruel and barbarous treatment on the part of' General: Winder.
