The New York Tribune publishes the
following as coming from Washington,
and says it IS ''startl ng:"
The rebels have made two propositions
OF peace to the administration. The one
contemplates the complete recognition of
the Southern Confederacy, with a treaty
OF commerce and friendship, and perhaps,
an annual subsidy of $1,000, 900 from the
United States for giving US their protec.
ton against foreign aud domestic enc
mics.
The other, which is still under consid
Grafton, consents to n suspension of hos
Utilities, II laying Town of arms, and exten.
ton OF the line Of sc deg. 80 min. to the
Pacific"
The National lnteligencer, however, of
yesterday announces evidently semi,ofiis
c:aIly, that there is no ground for the ru-
mors in circulation that the Confederate
authorities had made any peace or, other
propositions.

they would cease their insane rawlings. But
IL appears that the progress they have
made las only made them moro bold, and
instead of calling off the dogs of abolition
ism, they gather new hope, and assume
new insolence, 10y the swapping asunder
Of link after link of the chain which
bound Our happy Union together, ard
eVince determination not to stop until
every hope of the Union is gone and ev-
cry vestige Of our Revolutionary memor-
les wiped out; or until they have huggcd
to their hypocritical bosoms every Sambo
and Dinah i'll the South. Shame, shame
on the wretch who so far forgcts his duty
to his country and his God as 10 hurl forth
such foul political cpithets, under the
guise OF a sermon as did this hing called
Presiding Elder. How strangely does
1t contrast with the example once given
by those who were called to preach the
blessed doctrine of Christ and Christ cru
Cited! When We revert to that time,
when, in the dark Lour of the Revolution
the pulpit was by high souled men made
radicnt with prayers for the preservation
OF the country, and contrast them with
the little, mean nd dirty effort of this
would be great man, my heart sickens
with pure disgust at the spectacle. There
was Il time when our Union was never
spoken of but as bond of strength, and
as thing to be perpetuated as the love of
promise over-reaChlng the whole land ard
giving presage of glorious future to al!
we hold most dear on earth; and when
peril seemed 10 threaten it every thing
was forgotten and one united prayer was
offered up to the Throne of Grace for its
preservation. But how changed The
father of his country-the mini,te ters of
God in the time Of the revolution-the
CONSIDERS and friends of our hnliss.arved
army did not know their duty, or were
too dishonest to do il and it was reserved
for these latter day saints, of whom this
man Crauthers is contemplate speci.
men, to enlighttn the people and traduce
the glorious memories of the immortal sa-
ges of the times that tried mems souls. "
But why waste time and paper Oh the
insane rawlings of a stupid, ignorant ire
Iig!ous fanatic like this cheat of prea, h.
er. We all know that such men are Il
necessary evil, aud that they have only
been born into the world to assist in de.
stroying the public peace, and in the end
to advance the cause of the devil and his
semi-sanctfed imps. But one thing it
might be well for Mr.. c. to remember, as
well as any other person, that the repeat
ing o! such obnoxious sentiments will be
regarded as sufficient oouco for tho st"i''-
gent enforcement OF mob law. We
are in earnest, and hope he will profit by
it. Creatures who we know would not
hesitate to cruelty our Lord and Saviour
to carry out their helish designs can find
no sympathy in this community, VIII
the Rev Presiding Elder, Mr.. Bombastus
Crauthers, please make note of it?

are intense and vehement; that the
troops Of the Confederate States consist
largely of planters SONS, accustomed to
the use of firearms and to fatigucs, and
are excellent soldiers. The people of the

connected with what you justly style the
present "ingorious, aud i: may be, bloody
war" has been received. That opinion

" set forth through the press or by speech
and vote in the House Of Representatives
last winter, and reailirned in a card "a

after the commencement of the war. But
inasmuch rs never had occasion to dis
cuss this particular question at length, |
beg leave to adopt the following admlra.
bic summary OF the case in an extract
from carefully prepared and exceedingly
able speech of the Hon. S. A. Douglas, in
the Senate of the United States, March

to peaceful disunion; and | prefer it n
thousand times to civil war. If we can
adopt such amendments as will be salts

plan Of pacilication which will satisfy
them will create Union party in the cot.

majority of the people in those States, and
bring them back of their own free will

and perpetuate the glorious old Union for.

BEArREGARD EREcrING MORE WORKS,

BEAUREGARD ERECTING MORE WORKS.
Fa!Uar Coootb Va, June 2S.-The en-.
eIuy have recently erected defensive
works upon the road between Fairfax C,
II. and Albert Wilcoxen's, II miles 10 tho
north OF the Court House. Also near
Flint Hill school house, on the road from
Germantown TO Georgetown, and about
y miles from Fairfax Court House.
All along both these roads they have
felled trees across them to render them
impossible to our troops. They have for
some days PAST been impressing all the
negroes in this neighborhood on whom
they can lay hands TO assist in this work.
This looks as though they entertain no
ldea OF advancing any considerable BODY
of troops towards Washington. Else why
obstruct all Il roads by telling trees
across them and digging impossible pits
upon them?
They have recently cut new road tbro'
the woods from Germantown back to Cen.
treviIIe, and improved unto a road) q bri.
die path from Fairfax Court House back
to the same point-to Centreville. This
looks as though they alc prepllng to re-
treat rather than advance,

Ten million leagues Of crinoline

Sick trembling, weary, worn and weak,

His footsteps sought that rest of old,
For Clouds OF skirts soon tillcd the plain;
And hid the mountain in their fold.

from the candid nd considerate.
While the welkn still rings with euo-
gums on the departed Douglas, and so
many vie in their efforts to do honor to
his me mory, this letter of Mr. Vallondig-
ham is eminently well timed, in SPREAD

stitute the gem which will most adorn his

Northern journalists should be exceed
ingly careful what they wlite row,a>days.
We notice that Virginia and other Border
State secession journals are publishing
the rawlings and outrageous utterances cut
from rabd anti.sllvery journals. The
TiJ,nG is now, we verify believe, raising
more men for the South than the North
1t is quoted down there as the Republican
organ, and all its most violent, and savage,
and innuman paragraphs are freely pub
lished throughout the South. Reliable
letter writers say that that, an other like
intemperate papers, are having IA very,
very bad effect on Union mec in the scce'
ded States. They frankly confess morc>
over, that if the objects Of the present war
be such as ABOLITION sheets are beginning
to represent that then they have nothing
left Uut TO Join the secession ranks. To
be sure, il Is unfai" to make the North re-
sponsible for what rabid and foolish edi-
tors say, more frequently merely as meno
aces, but still it is done. Take for in>
stance, the following senten~e from one
of Greeley's editorials, and j1dge, if you
can. its effects in the South where it is now
current.
