THE PEACE CONFERENCE, c

--THE PEACE CONFERENCE, called at the
suggestion of Virginia, after session OF
fifteen days adopted the Guthrie plan of COM
promise as modified or explained by Mr..
Franklin. We notice no material difference
between the one adopted by the Conference
and that given in The Wing last week as the
"Gu,hrie Plan," with the exception of an
article which provides for the payment of the
full value of fugitive slaves in cases of rescue,
the acceptance Of which payment to preclude
the owner from further claim to the slave
The action OF the Conference now goes to
Congress, when, if it receives vote of two
thirds of both Houses, it is submitted to the
Legislatures Of the several States for Iatfca
ton, according to the forms Of tine Consitu-
ton.
The House OF Representatives, on
Thursday morning, by a vote Of 1873 to IS,
adopted what is known as the Corwin Report.
which provides that no amendment sha II
hereafter be made to the Constitution which
will give Congress the power tc abolish or
Interfere with slavery in the States.

The Presidential Hegira.

An intense excitement was created through.
ont the country, on Saturday morning last, by
the announcement that the President elect
who was expected, according to programme,
to arrive in Baltimore on that day by the
Northern Ccntrsl K. r.. had passed through
Baltimore by the Phil, vii. & Bait. r. r.,
in the night train, and had arrived in Wash.
ingten Oh Saturday morning at Go'clock..-
The reasons assigned FOR this unexpected
course were various, but almost all pointed to
the alleged existence of plots for the assasi
nation of - Uncle Abe" by knife, pis toll
hand grenade or distractions on the track of
the Rail Road by which he was expected to
travel between Harrisburg and Baltimore. -
Some of the rcpnrts. however. alleged poli,i-
cal reasons. alone, as the cause. Mr..
Lincoln's immediate presence in Washington
being considered of lEomcntous importance in

ofexisting difficulties by the Peace Confer

EDUCATIONAL INTERESTS IN ELKToN

EDUCATIONAL INTERESTS IN ELKToN,
Our town was never, perhaps, more highly
| favored than now with educational advan-
| tages. The Public School, under the able
| charge of Mr.. NJ. Johnson Rhodes, and his
female co-Iaborers-Miss Shippers and Miss
Brock, in connection with the judicieus
supervision of the Commissioner Of Public
Schools of this district,-F. A. Ellis, ESQ.,, is
succeeding admirably, and gives promise of
much usefulness, as was shown by a recent
quarterly examination Of the pupils conducted
in the presence Of number of the friends and
patrons Of the School.
| The Annual Academy exhibition, which
took place on Wedncs day night last before
densely crowded audience, in that miserable
| place tor such pnrposes-the Court room,
attests, in connection with the Annual Report
of the Principal read at the close of the per-
formances, the yea and ability of Mr.. T.. F.
NJ. Fachtz, and his corps of lady assistants, as
| well as the liberal management Of the Trus-
tees OF the 1nsIitu ion in providing for, and
encouraging proper spirit of emulation
among the students. Tho exercises of the
exhibition were quite interesting. The
oratorical display was very creditable, a
number Of the boys giving evidence of adj
vanccment much beyond their years. The
original compositions, including the Latin
Salutatory, and tho Valedic,ory, by the
Senior department were carefully and ably
written, and the singing, by the female pupils,
was excellent. and reflected much credit upon
the accomplished lady Of the Principal, to
whose instruction in vocal and instrumental
music the young ladies' are so much indebted.
