is gaming great power. Our minds are
greatly exercised in regard to this pe.ce
party, and il is the chief topic OF convar-
sa'ion among u.s. We will arxiously
wait to hear of the proceedings Of the

opinion of any man who entertsin,. ~ :

The terms of peace hope TO see enforcad

and come back into the old Union. and If
they don't accept OF these terms. to fgb,
them until they are made to come to our
terms. This eonniviDg to put pesee
