@-The N Y Tribune graciOusiy talks of
peace. 1t assumes that peace might revisit
the estranged and warning States through
either of three ways:
Ist. The entire subjugation of the South
by force of arms by the North, and the re-
establishment of the authority OF the Federal
Government unquestioned in all the rebel
lious States
End. 4 compromise with the South, by a
concession on the part of the North, of all
the rights claimed by the South as cOnstitu-
tional.
3rd. The recognition of the Independence
aud nationality of the Confederate States.
The amiable writer in the Tribune states
that the two last are wholly inadmissible,
and insists that the first is the only mode to
be considered or acted upon, and proceeds to
e1patiate on the entrance of peace through
that aperture to his fancy.
We substantially agree with the Tribune on
the alternative presented as the conditions
of peace, as far as it goes. 1t never, perhaps,
occurred to the Tribune that, in the possibili-
ties of the future, the North, instead of the
South, might be suhjugated by force of arms,
aud peace cone through that door way. Ii
this should ever occur, however, the COnfed-
crate flag would never seek to symbolic the
nationality of people who have shown them
selves capable of throwing away liberty and
prosperity, and choosing a despotism and
general ruin in their stead. New England
could not, if she would, enjoy the advanta-
ges of the Confederate Government.
Still, the Tribune has stated its terms of
peace-to wit: the entire subjugation of the
South. 1t is not our present purpose to dis
turb the sacred happiness and repose which
it and its disciples may enjoy in the belief
that the South can and shall be Frustrated
in the dust Of defeat. Bnt it is our pleasure
to say that until that is done, We are privi-
legged to consider of the conditionsOf peace as
well as our enemies. On the second alterna-
tive we agree. There can be no patched up
compromise. The North spurned our offers Of
compromise until they forced US into war
with them, and now we cannot yield what
the term com promise would imply. The
long and short of it is, that we cannot live
in the same government with the North. We
cannot be whipped into subsection, and re-
ally the alternative of subjugation implies
our humiliation. Our enemies, if the Til
bune represents their intents, had as well make
clean work of it as they go. And before
they attain success, they must rely on seeing
the present generation pass away, and make
up their minds TO transmit the present war
from, Generation tn paneration for an indef-
mite period Of years.

GEN. ZoIIieoffer and the Governor of
Kentucky.

The following despatch to the Governor of
Kentucky was submitted to the Legislature
last Monday, aud referred to the Committee
on Federal Relations:
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 18th.
To his EIcelZeney, B. MAGoFFIN:
SIR: The safety of Tennessee requiring,
occupy the mountain passes at Cumberland,
and the three long mountains in Kentucky.
For weeks l have known that the Federal
COMMANDER at Hoskins' Cross Roads was
threatening the invasion of East Tennessee,
aud ruthlessly urging our people to destroy
their own road and bridge. postponed this
prec 4utiOnary movement until the despotic
Government at Washington. refusing to re-
cognize the neutrality of Kentucky, has es-
tablished formidable camps in the center and
other parts of the State, with the view, first,
to subjugate your gallant State, and lien
ourselves. Tennessee feels, and has ever felt
towards Kentucky as twin sister; their
people are as one people in kindred sympa-
thy, valOr and patriotism; we have feft, and
still feel. religious respect for kentucky's
neutrality. We will respect it as long SIS
our safety will permit. If the Federal forces
will now withdraw from their menacing po-
sition the force under my command shall i'm
mediately be Withdrawn.
Very respectfully,
E K. ZOLLICOFFER.

ahe TWO Cars. EzAsszz

A day or two ago We printed a letter from
Gar ALEXANDER, of Russia, TO Car LINCOLN
of America. The former says TO the latter
the civil war in this country is an unfortu-
nate sffair. In this ALEXANDER Is unques-
tiouabIy right. But why should ALExANDER
volunteer this opinion SO early as the 10Th OF
July. when he could not have heard OF any
thing of our war except The bombardment oil
Sumter. the proclamation IF the blockade
and the call for troops? May it not be that
these facts reaching St Petersburg convinced
the Gar that he had found a man on the
Western contine Mt with whom be could min
gle unreservedIy his despotic symPathies'
We shall not undertake to say
But, we appretend that the real ohJect Oh
ALEXANDER was to convey the lnumatlon'
which be did, and call 10 the mind OF the
despot at Washington the idea. closest to his
own interests and preroga'iyeS, OF Inc po-
IitieaI eouflibrum'' of the world He Is dl-
rectIy interested in American affairs tie
Ia. nossessions on our Northwest, which may
he of great Importance to himself or bis
sncces=ors- He has never been remaI kable
for interfering in affairs that do not concern
his mower and dominion. Ia the affairs of
Italy he was silent So was England. Eng
land is not unmiudful of her vital Interests
in the productions of the S1uih, however she
NAV feel towards our institutions, and she has
also possessions lying side by side with those
of the Car in America. The published eX-
uressions of British statesmen aud English
journals have been OF character not to en-
courage the belief that she would, in any
event take an active friendly share in the
fortunes of the North. Between British in
terest and Southern interests, with the pow
ers of both combined for the Accomplishment
of a common purpose, it might reasonably
enter the mind of ALEXANDER that Ihe.'e quill
brium- in America might be 50 far disturbed
as to send him out of the continent with his
finger in bis mouth, or "a fl a in his ear" At
all events, we are inclined to think be had
some object in writing his letter to the
American Car LINCOLN
We are bound in honesty to admit that we
have fOregOne the pleasure up to this time
of perusal of ..ArmageddOn;" but We have
understood that something Is therein said OF
a great battle TO BE- fought in the Mississippi
Valley, in which Russia would play an i'm
portant part. We would not say the letter
of the Russian Gar indicated prOximate
fuIflment of that Interpretation of prophe-
CIV. But we do say that letter indicates that
ALEXANDER is disposed to consider the war
in this country as destined to have an i'm
portaut bearing on the so much coveted ''pO-
litical equilibrium in Europe. We will not
call him fool, but will await with exempla-
~ patience his next letter and future deyeI-
Opments.

An Electoral Ticket

The Memphis Appeal suggests, that, in view
of the shortness of time and the engagements
of the people which will prevent them from
holding meetings to appoint an electoral
ticket in the various districts, "the duty OF
forming an electoral ticket be left to the Gen.
eral Assembly which conyenes" in this city
on the 9TH proximo. The Appeal says it does
not propose this as precedent to be follow
ed in the future, for as such there are insu-
perable objections TO it," OF course the Ap-
peal is for DAVIS and STEPHENS. We cannot
see what the General Assembly" has to do
with matter of that sort, as such. If the
members, as individuals, should feel inclined
to do so, they could probably, for this occa.
sion, reflect the popular sentiment as fully
and as accurately as any other body of men
likely to assemble between this time and the
day of election, upon the subject of an elec.
toral ticket. Under the peculiar circum-
stances of the case, we see no reasonable eb.
lection to the suggestion of the Appeal.
