Gold and Peace.

Gold is declining again, caused, no
doubt, by the rumor of peace propositions
to be made to the Confederate Congress.
1t is a noticeable fact, that no victory
which the Federal arms can achieve, caus-
es any sensible dimunitiOn in the price OF
the precious metal. Even the splendid
victory of Sheridan in the Valley, did not
add anything to the value of greenbAcks.
while every rumOr of peace. however slight
the ground on which the rumor is based
bsgets a tumble in the gold market. The
reason is obvious. 1t results from the
convictions of the sharpest-sighted men in
the country. that the Government is to be
saved, snd our trouble to end by negotia-
ton, and not by battle.

Liberal Terms Of Peace 20 be
OneFeGI

The telegraph this morning amAzes the
public by the announcement that liberal
terms of peace will be offered to the Con-
federates in the ensuing month Of Decem-
Der. This takes us wholly by surprise.
1t indicates total change of views in the
Administration; an abandonment of the
bloody and remorseless policy which has
hitherto been the sole test of loyalty; and
the adoption of the wise policy SO long
advocated by MeSsrs. VALLANDIeHAH,
WOOD, and the whole Democracy OF the
North. Hereafter we trust that men who
advocate peace, will not be denominated
"peace scoundrels;" for surely if it bt
laudable in Mr.. LIooLN to offer "libera
terms" of peace, il was none the less 30 IL
Democrats to recommend suck an etier
But there is more of this to be considered
This offer of "liberal terms of peace" i
a confession that the war has been wha
the Chicago Platform proclaimed tito be
viz: ga failure" -Four years Of war hsv
proven Failure" aud at last We lear
that liberal "terns of peace" are to be OF
fared. which if rendered in the beginnin
would have aVerted the bAttioS, the blood
shed, the agony and the bereavemeu
which for SO long time have transforme
this fair land into a "PsndemOnium.
But better late than never. II such term
are offered, we shall most heartily suStai
and approve the proposition, and thos
who make it; and if not accepted, "
shall quite as heartily condemn those VIII
make the refusal.

On Saturday night lady knocked at the
door Of a professional gentleman, residing on
Sixth street, aud begged him to afford her ac-
com modations for the ight, as she was des.
titute, and had no place to stay. The lady
was accompanied by large dog, which re-
maiued at the outside door, and while his mis-
tress was solicitsting aims, the brute bit gem
tleman who was passing along the street.
Several years ago this lady kept large
boarding house in the city, and the profess
ioual gentleman was one of her boarders. The
dog was great favorite with the landlady,
who petted and fonded him like q child, and
fed him on the daintiest food. In the course
Of time the dog took the mango, and became
an object Of disgust to everybody about the
house, except the owner The gentleman
earnestly advised her to send the dog away,
and told her il she kept him he would be the
means of driving her into the street as beg
gar. But she had sentimental fondness for
tho dumb brute, having heard the song OF
"Poor Dog Tray" and other famous members
of the crnine family and rssolutely refused
to part with him This NANCY dog was al
ways in the way of the boRrders, and soon be-
came so offensive to their olfactories that,
ene by one, they sought other lodgings, and
the lAndady WAS left with her dog as her only
boarder. She sold of a portion OF her iurn'
iture aud renting & smaller house, obtained a
sufficient number OF boardsrs to enable her 10

professional gentleman, and asked him Il

she still retained the dog, the gentleman re

her that he would do nothing for her as lonl
as she kept that dog. The lady said she love-
the dog like child, and could not think O

sides bills for printing which exceed $2e6, 900
though involving slight discrepancy OF
$34, 900, OF some such trife, there is a charge
of nearly $50, 900 for refreshments and snn,
dries, consisting in large part of stimulants to
assist members of the Convention in their
severe labors
First we have $4l4 for ice to keep them
cool; but it was too much they were too
cOol-nearly frozen; hence, we have $9,42l
