NEW YORE, Fm. 7, Munro.
The New York Times gives the following particu-
lars of the peace conference at Fort Monroe, which
are supposed to be derived from official sources.
Attar President Lincoln and Mr. Seward re-
turned to Washington a cabinet meeting was sum-
moned, and the following leading pobita cif the con-
ference submitted.
Mr. Seward on his arrival at Fort Monroe in-
vited the Commbeioners loan interview. The Com-
missioners informed Mr. Seward in reply of their
desire to proceed to %Allotted to diseus the
question of peace with the Pret. Mr. Seward
said that the President desired that the interview
should take place at Feet Moores, and was
there for that penmen', The Commissioner
for leave to visit Washiegton, alleging that
Confederate government only consented to send
them in consequence of Mr. Blaira assurance that
they could have a personal interview with President
Lincoln. Lincoln's arrival wen afterwards an-
monad ; whereupon he and Mr. Seward had an
interview with the Commissioners on board
• Federal vessel. The interview was friendly
and good-tempered throughout Lincoln prinei-
pally conducted the conversation on the
Federal side, and Mr. Hunter on the
Confederate, Mr. Stephens occasionally taking part
in it. no Commissioners spoke solely and exclu-
sively on the part of the Confederate government,
and declared at the outset and throughout the con-
ference their entire lack of authority to Hake, re-
wive, or consider any proposition looking to an
end of the war ex
t on the basis of the recogni-
tion of the in on of the Confederates as a
preliminary on tion. Lincoln presented the sub-
ject to them in every conceivable form, suggestieg
the liberal and considerate modification of whatever
in the existing legislation or action of the Federal
government might be regarded as specially
hostile to the rights and interests or wound-
ing to the pride of the Southern Reopie,
but in no single particular could he Indus
them to swerve for a moment from their de-
mand for recognition. They did not present this
constitutionally as resting on their own convictions
and wishes, but as a condition which their govern-
ment had made absolutely indispensable to any
negotiations or discussions coucsramp peso!. Pre-
sident Lincoln informed them et every point that
sub recognition was utterly and totally out of the
question. The United States could stop the war
and arrest the movement of the armies even tempo-
rarily upon the condition precedent that the na-
tional authority be recognised and obeyed over the
whole United States territory.
This point oonceded, be assured them that upon
every other matter of difference they would be
Vested with the utmost liberality, but without the
recognition of that authority the war must continue.
' All the conversation came back and turned upon
this irreconcilable difficulty. Neither side could be
swerved a hair's breadth from its position, and the
attempt at negotiation wastherefore an utter failure.
Upon separating it was distinctly understood,
and explicitly stated, that the action and at-
titude of each government was to be pre-
cisely what it would have been if this
interview bad never taken place. The cabinet re-
ceived these explanations as satisfactory and com-
plete. The feehng was unanimous that the country
must now arouse itself to renewed efforts, and pre-
pare to make fresh sacrifices in defence of the in-
te&"of the Union.
Fernandoi Wood's resolution, declaring it to
be the duty of the President to maintain the Union,
has panW the House of Representatives.
