Rebel Terms OF Peace.

Hsaye on our own terms we can accent no
peace whatever, and must fight til doomsday
rather than yield an iota Of them, and our terms
are,
Recognition by theenemy of theindependence
of the Confederate States
Withdrawal OF the Yankee forces from every
foot nf Confederate ground, including Kentucky
and Missouri.
Withdrawal of the Yankee soldiers from Mary
land until that State shall decide by free vote
whether she shall remain in the old Union or ask
admission into the Conte1eracy
10 Consent on the part OF the Federal Govern
ment to giyeup 10 the Confeieraoy its propor-
ton Of the navy it stood at the time of seces-
sion, or to pay for the same.
Yielding up of all pretension ON the part of
the Federal Government to that portion of the
old Territories which lies west Of the Confeder-
ate States
An equitable settlement on the basis of our
absolute Independence aud equal rights, Of all
accounts OF the public debt and public lands,
ana the advantages accruing from foreign treat
les.
These provisions, We apprehend, comprise the
minimum OF what VIC must require before we
lay down our arms That is 20 say, the North
must yield al, we nothing. The whole pre-
tension Of THAT country 20 prevent hy force the
separation OF the States must be ahandoned
