SThe notorious thief or defaul-
ter Geo. n. Sanders, who as Navy
agent at brooklyn, under Buchanan
is a defaulter to. the United States
Government IN the sum of $50, 900,
and one James P. Hoi ;ombe, anoth-
er of Buchanan's officials, with G. c.
Clay rebel being on the British
side of Niagara Falls q few days
since undertook to constitute them
selves agents, accredited by JEFF
Davis to proceed to Washington
on the question of Peace. Horace
Greely happening to be on this side
of the falls, Sanders telegraph ed HIM
to obtain for them including anoth er
safe conduct from President Lincoln.
That other was the notorious defaul-
ter Jake Thomson, Bucha mans Secy.
ofthe Interior, who. allowed $500,
900 of Indian Annuity bonds to be
distracted from his Office. What q
nice party of rogues to be sure
though well worthy of their cause,
The whole scheme was designed
to manufacture capital for the Chi
cago convention oy obtaining some
admission from Pres. Lincoln out
of which they could torture some
thing adapted to that end.
The President however addressed
his reply. To whom it nay concern
DC, not even naming the dirty
hn4ves. Thereupon these beauties
acknowledged them selves imposters
and the matter came to an end.
Rhe Copperheads are now ringing
the charges, on the part of the Pres
idents reply in regard to the aban-
donment of Slavery as one of the
requisites for Peace.
They are welcome to all they will
make of it for JEFF Davis has very
eeeently in a conversation with Jas.
Gilnore, and Gen. jacques declared
they were not fighting for slavery.
E Yet sneaking ours in the North
are still tryiag to keep up an interest
in question, which the rebels them
selves have abandoned. Is it any
wonder the latter "hold their noses
a little" while. the eopperheads crawl
on their bellies, beseeching them
to "hold on. to, the nlgger"

accomplished all without the loss of
