Davis, at one time Gov ernor of Oregon Territory, died lit his res idence in Carlisle, .Sullivan county, Indiana, on tlio 2sd of August lust. Gov. Davis oecnjiied a prominent spnec in the jiuhlic history of the nation. No served several term in Congress, nml in I fS I ." was chosen Speaker of the House of llepreseiitutives. Ho wm subserpifiilly appointed Cowuiis inner to Cliiiui, vlierj'liu remained about year. He was elected President of the llultiiuora National Convention, in is 02, '. which nominated (Jen. Tierce fur the I Yes Meney, nnii in tlic c.ciliii;; :dr;iggl attend ing that noniinalion, camo within one vole: in the caucus of the Virginia delegation of Ileitis their choice for l'n.sMint, a role which decided the iioiniino of the Conven tion. President Pierce appointed liini Gov ernor of Oregon Territory, whieli he re tained hut a short time, becoming disgusted with the low art mid petty trickery of Or egon Democratic politicians. His honest soul revolted ut tlio contemptible meanness exhibited by mu whom lie was obliged to associate with in this country, nml throw ing up a commission in disgust which he accepted to favor President Pierce, he sought a clime where he could enjoy tlic so ciety of men of honor, instead of being con demned toassociatu with 1jIu 'kii'irii.s and jiillinns. Gov. D.ivis liad been in precarious nnd filling health for a long time, niid his de eao was not therefore unanticipated by his immediate friend, lio wan a man of .strict personal and political integrity, anil during u long career retained in an eminent degree the confidence and reaped of his per sonal and political friends. The Indiana State .Sentinel, nfti r r. count ing the prominent events or hi life, says; "John W. D.uis was a good citizen. 1 le was sineem in hi political convictions, and .faithfully maintained them. His 01,,j 1U varied public career, commencing cnrlv in life, nnd continuing until failing health and declining years prevented his participation in public all'iin, is the bet evidence w hich can be presented 0r his worth as a citizen, and the value of his public si rviccs."
