4 NEW DEVELOPMENT OF PEACE PRIN-
CIPLES,

The notorious Vallandigham addressed meet
ing Of his sworn vassals at Sydnes, Ohio, on the
24th ult, in which be urged them to support Nc
ClelIan, and gave them this cogent, and to them
convincing inducement. Speaking of the Presi-
dent, be says, his head, and the heads Of those
around him, would come to the block. .
We have here an undisguised declaration that
in the event of McClellan's election the work Of
Hbutchery is to begin. The President and his inn
mediate advisers are to be the first victims, but
every man who has been prominent in his devotion
Ito the Union may expect to find his name in the
list Of those doomed to the block. This is the Ian
guage of men who talk of peace, and who denoun-
bes as tyrannical an administration that offers no
hindrance to the proclamation ofan era Of murder,
in case the prospective butcher can succeed in the
Presidential election.

PRESIDENT I.INCOI.N's SPEECH.

President Lincoln, in answer to a serenade from
loyal Marylanders on the night Of the 18th. spoke
as follows
II am notified that this is compliment paid
me by the loyal Marylanders resident in this dis
trict. infer that the adoption of the new Con
stitutiou for the State furnishes the OCCASION and
that, in your view the extirpation Of slavery con-
stitute the chief merit of the new Constitution.
Most heartily do congratulate you and Mary
land, and the nation and the worldupon theevent.
/ regret that it did not occur two years sooner,
which I am sure would have saved to the nation
more money than would have met all private loss
incident to the measure But it has come at last,
and I sincerely hope its friends may fully realize
all their anticpations Of good from it, and that its
opponents may, by It's effects, be agreeaby and
pro6tably disappointed.
GA word upon another subject Something said
by the Secretary Of State in his recent speech at
Auburn, has been construed by some into threat
that, if shall be beaten at the election, Twill, be-
tween then and the end of my constitutional term,
90 what may be able to ruin the Government -
Others regard the fact that the Chicago CoRyen-
tion adjourned, not sine ee, but to meet again if
called TO do SO by particular Individual, as the
intirnationof purpose that, ftheir nominee shall
sbe elected, he viii at once seize the control Of the
Government l hope the good people viii permit
themselves to suffer no uneasineess on this point.

This is due to the people, both ON principle

they should deliberately resolve 10 have Immediate
peace, even at the loss Of their country and theiF
liberties, know not the power or the right to re7
Est them It is their own business, andtheyInust
do as they please with their own. believe how
ever, they are still resolved to preserve their coun.
try and their liberty, and in this Office or out am
resolved to stand By them
I may add that in this purpose to save The counF
try and It's liberties, no classes Of people seem sp
nearly unanimous as the soldiers in the field and
the seamen afloat. Do they not have the hardest
of it? Who should quail while they do not ri
God bless the soldiers and seamen, with all their
brave commanders.

In the Rebel Official Report Of Che interview
between JEFFERSON DAVIS and MEssRs. JA-

with the declaration
THAT THE SEPARATION OF THE

In Speech to the Legislature of Mississippi,
Dec. 26, 1862, JEFFERSON DAVIS said
AFTER WHAT HAS HAPPENED the
last two years, my only wonder is, that we con-
sented to live 50 long time in association with
such niscreants. Were it ever proposed to enter

THE INCREASE OF MUSICAL TASTE IN THIS
CoUNTRY.-Within the past few years the public
taste for music has vastly increased in this
country. Whereas but o short time since On
opera troupe could find patronage In no part Of
the country save this city, we now see both
italian and German opera flourish in all our large
towns, even those Of the West. Boston, Pbila-
delphia, Washington and Baltimore now liber-
ally support regular operatic seasons. Concerts
are successfully given in all parts Of the coun-
try, and native artists are a consequences ac-
quiring extended fame. We are led to take
notice Of this great increase Of patronage for
music from the fact that Il is announced that
the Aessrs. Leland contemplate the erection Of
IN opera house at Saratoga. The intention 10
70 make II large and imposing structure
worthy Of the patronage Of those who throng
this favorlte summer resort We hope this de-
sign may be carried out without delay, as Il
would certainly increase the attractions Of Sara
toga and furnish the means for an extended
cultivation and patronage Of the most delight
