friend. TO make the .folisEipg extracts from the
Mobile Register and Advertiser, just received
here by deSertar who came in from Bragg's
army. It will be remembered that this paper Is

I'VE thank God from The depths of our hearts
that the authorities at Washington snuhbed Vice
President Stephens in his late attempt 60 confer
with them ON International affsirs, without form
or ceremony II has long been known here
that this gentleman thought. if he could get
to whisper into the ears Of some men about
Washington, the result might be terms of
peace on some sort Of union recOnstraction.
he seemed 70 forget that Douglas, with whom he
used to serve. is dead. and notwithstanding his
mantle bv dividisg INTO. four pieces upon Rich
ardson and Voorhees, yAllandighams and ,Pueh,
still the Democratic party is not in power now,
and we may thank God for it. The prospect
looked gloomy to the Vice President. whose in
trinity of body no doubt casts a shadow over his
spirits. and he said that one OF the two things
must be done; either some terms must be made,
or the whole militia of the Confederacy must be
called oct and am immediate alliance proposed
with foreign powers President Davis gave him
full powers to treat on honorable terms, and
started him of 10 the kingdom of Abr lham.
But Father Abraham told him there was an i'm
passable gulf between them. and the Vice Presi-
dent had to steam back to Richmond little top
fallen. We hope this will put a stop forever 10
some croakers about here who intimate that there
are people enough friendly TO the South, in the
North, 70 restore the Union as It was. And We
also hope tha; the Government at Richmond will
not humiate itself anv more but from this time
will look only TO the one end Of final and substantial
independence The North il not less set on a
purpose of final separation than ee are. The
Republican party are no, fighting 10 restore this
Union anv more than the old Romans fought to
establish the independence of the countries they
invaded The Republicans are fighting for con-
quest and dominion, We for liberty and indepep-

There is ONLY one party in tse North who
want this Union restored, but they have no more
power-legisative. executive, or judicial-than
the paper we write on 1t is true they make
show Of Union and strength, but they have no
voice of authority. We know that the Valland-
isham school waits the Union restored. for he
told us 20 when here in exile partaking OF such
hospitality as we extended to a real enemy TO our
struggle for separation--banished TO eur soil br
announcer enemy hho Is pract3caliy more our irleno
than lie. And ii Vallanjigham should. by acci-
dent or other cause. become Governor of Ohio.
we hope Lincoln viii keep his nerves to the pro
per tension. and not allow him 20 enter the con-
fines Of the State His administration would do
more TO restore the old Unbn than any other
power in Ohio could do, and therefore We pray that
he may be defeated. Should strong Union
party spring up in Ohio. the third State in the
North in political importance, it might find a
feint response in some Southern States. and give
US trouble But, as long as the Republicans
hold power, they viii think of conquest and do
minion only, and we, on the other hand. will
come up in solid column for freedom and indie
pendence, which We will be certain to achieve.
with such assistance we may now (affer the
refusal of the Washington Cabinet to confer

North get in power again, aud come whispering
in our ears, Union reconstruction, Constitution,
concession and guarantees Away with all such
stuff. We want separation. Give Us rather men
like Thadeus Stevens, and Charles Sumner.
They curse the old Union and despise it. and so
do we. And we now promise these gentlemen
that as they hate the Union and the "accursed
Constitution et them keep down Fslandigham
and his party in the North, then they shall never
be troubled by with such whining about the
Constitution and Union as they are sending up.
