IMPORTANT REBEL PROPOSALS,

Rumored Oncrs Of General Kirby Smith
and q Mississippi Rebel Quartermas-
ter-Ail the Rebel Government Cotton
under their Control 60 be Delivered In
side the Union Lines, sc.
sr loULs Jan. IL, 1884.
The Republicans Memphis correspondence says that
two important propositions have recently been made BY
the rebel authorities to the federal government.
The 1rst Ia from quartemaster Of the rebel army At
HERNANDEZ acting by authority Of Richmond officials. he
has offered TO sell to General Gurbut or 70 the United
States government all the cotton remaining within
certain district yet outside OF the Union lines. This
offer embraces Is 900 bales all rebel government cot
ton. and greenbacks will be taken for H. II is said that
General Hurbut fayors its purchase and has recon.
mended that the proposition be carried into effect.
The second proposition Ia stated 70 ne from Kirby
Smith, who recently sent an authorized messenger to
Washington propose the Union authorities to fur
nish every requisite authority TO get out all cotton In
that portion of the Red River and wachta district within
rebel control the money for the same TO be paid TO that
class Of officers excepted from the amnesty offered By
President Lincoln they TO retire from the rebel army
and 60 to Mexico.
The Republican says. edorialy OF the correctness Of
this informatonwe have doubt OF It, for it comas
from sources likely TO have the best Of nforma
tion Also that this would involve the complete dis
bandment of the rebel forces in Arkansas Mississippi
Louisiana and Texas and the immediate OF those
States to the Union"
