Rebel Vice President Wants Peace.

Philadelphia, Oct. IA.
A special despatch to the Bulletin 10.
day says North Carolina paper of the
9th inst. states that letter was hourly
expected from the Rebel Vice President
Stephens, defining his position and views
on the Peace question now sgi,a,ipe the
public. They also contain the follow.
ing remarkable statements: Vice Pre.;.
dent Stephens has told gentlemen in
haleigh that his views incline strongly to
an immediate effort for peace By neeotia.
tion. Mr. Stephens is represented a. saw.
ing that the time bad come for the peo.
pie OF the South to make known to those
OF the North, especially the peace party
OF that section. that they are ready to set
tie upon the sovereignty of States and TO
restore the old Government should the
North guarantee the right of property
and the majority Of the people so declare.
The gentleman who furnishes the news
IS man OF high character. He saw and
conversed with the Vice President. and
would not be likely to misrepresent.-
There are many who can hardly cred;,
the story. Mr. Stephens has written \
letter Tor publication, and the matter will
soon be put at rest. The same paper also
says that there is powerful and grow ing
desire In Georgia 10 stop the war now
We have no doubt Of it, but We hardly
expected such gentlemen as Stephens and
u ". Bfown 10 lend themselves ia favor
oi reconstruction upon any terms.
