A southern Peace Democrat.

Mr.. W. w. Boycs, member OF the rebel
Congress. from South Carolina. is known
ss leading representative Of the Southern
peace party. He has at various times tried
to induce the rebe, authorities to make
ove.tnres for peace 10 the President Of the
United States. He il one OF the chief u
that class Of peace men in the South TO
whom those III the Northern Democratic
party. who honestly expect any peace and
Union from the election Of q Democratic
Administration, look for cooperation.
M. Boyce has recently been brough. be-
fore his constituents at a public meeting a.
Columbia, which discussed his recent let
ter, and introduced resolutions denouncing
his peace policy. and requesting him 70 re-
sign. Mr.. Boyce was given an opportunity
to defend himself. He thereupon defined
his position, stating that his peace course
was purely diplomatic and designed 70
strengthen the Democratic party and Cii-
vide the North; that lie never attended re-
construction Of the Union upon any basis;
and that in his last letter to jefferson Davis

because !: would be time enough for the
North to learn that the South would accep:
nothing short Of separation when it had
seen Cuped into a convention.
Mr.. Bovce told his constituents in this
moment Of confidence that he had hoped 10
help the election OF Mcclellan because it,
in connection with the Chicago Platform,
would facilitate the purposes Of the South,
and THAT he had aimed al dividing the north
western from the Eastern States, and that
when this should be accomplished he was
in favor Of Offering Inducements to the
Northwest to enter the Confederate alliance
and dsfve the New Englanders into Canada
or the ocean.
In short, Mr.. Boyce shows great fitness
70 cooperate with our Northern Peace
Democrats, and they have lahored dill
gently to carry out the programme ne laid
down. Their policy is identical and they
have pursued 1t by the same means. We
have had occasion before now 10 define the
true intent and meaning Of the .armistice
which the Chicago CcliveEtiop prescribed,
and Of thu: platform generally. Mr.. Royce
fully sustairs this view, and seems 70 show

rebel leaders. OF course Mr.. Buyce is a

Of the cruelty of Capt Wert2, .he rebel
officer having charge Of the prison at An.
jacksonville, all the prisoners speak in I'M
measurable terms. His vindictiveness is
attributed to the fact that during one of
the Union raids in Alabama his property
was destroyed. l; was n common thing
for Capt, Werts to place men in the chain
gang for no greater offense than attempt
ing TO escape, and in two instances the un-
fortunate fellows died while in their letters.

THE BRITISH PEACE MAN1rEsTo.-Ac-
cording to the telegram printed in these
columns yesterday, the Peace Manifesto
lately sent to this country by the British
friends of the Slaveholders' Rebellion, was
urged upon the attention OF the Secretary
Of State by Mr.. Joseph Parker. The name
is erroneously given, either by accident or
design, as the bearer of the Address 10 the
Rev. Joseph Barker, who figured exten.
sively in this country, . few years since, as
an Abolitionist and an avowed champion
OF Infdelity. Mr.. Barker first appeared

oeoate with the Rev. DR.. Berg, Of Phila-
deiphia, on the inspiration of the Bible,
ana MS lectures IN opposition to Christian
NY IN that and other cities, excited some
attent!on. AT length, however, he lost his
standing even among his infidel friends.
