The daily exchange. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1858-1861, 1861-02-28


The Peace Congress has at last adjourned. At
the eleventh hour it has adopted the GUTHRIE
propositions, and what is known as the FRANKLIN
amendment as the basis of a compromise between
the sections. We publish these resolutions else
where, and it is therefore unnecessary here to re-
capituate their substance. As it was very gen
orally supposed the Congress would agree on some
plan OF adjustment, no one is surprised to learn
that they have done SO, but all will be disappoint.
ed to find that the conclusion which has been
reached is, apparently, little satisfactory to
those members of the body whom it was
all important to concate. majority
of the Virginia and North Carolina del
egations are said to have voted against the re
solutions, while the delegations from New York
and Missouri seem to have been divided How far
these facts will determine the people of those
States to accept repudiate the action of the Con-
gress, remains yet to be seen. But supposing that
no difficulty on this score will exist, and that the
people of the Border States will be satisfied with
these proposed amendments to the Constitution, it
is very questionable whether a sufficient majority
in the Federal Congress can be induced TO sanction
them In case OF such refusal, the labors of the
Peace Congress will, in all probability, come
to nought, for neither Virginia nor Kentucky is
likely to remain quiet if the North, through its
representatives, deliberately rejects the Just and
reasonable propositions which are thus recon-
mended. The border slave States have manifest
ed Willingness TO surrender by far the larger and
richer portion of our common Territories to the
people of the free States, and they only ask for
some assurance that the incoming Administration
Will recognize the rights of the STAKEHOLDER in the
Territory South of the old Missouri line, and that
the Constitution shall be so amended as to protect
him for all time to come. This assurance the
dominant party in the Federal Congress can and
ought to give speedily and cordially. The COM
promise which is now suggested would be. we
believe, satisfactory to Maryland, and we sim
cerely hope it may be generally approved
elsewhere, and endorsed by the Senate
and House of Representatives We are
bound TO confess, however, that the pros.
pect of an adjustment is far from promising.
The votes of Mr.. SEWARD and most of the other
prominent Republicans in the Senate, on the mo-
ton to refer the resolutions to a special Commit.
tee and the tone of the report of the House Com
mlttee of five, in relation to the South Carolina
Commissioners, indicate little disposition on the
part OF the Republicans for compromise or concil-
latlon In few days, however our doubts and
Tears Will be set at rest, and in the meantime we
are willing to hope for tht best.

The vote of Mr.. WINTER DAVIS, yesterday,
against both the CRIrTENDEN and the KELLOGG
Resolutions, must settle the question forever, we
presume, as to whether that gentleman represents
the State of Maryland. We do not believe that a
meeting, of any responsibility. has been held with

his reasons, which the future will disclose, for
