Mozart Hall, Cincinnati, last Saturday
night, which drew from the Cincinnati
Gazette of Monday, the following high,
but justly deserved comp inen'.-
The staid and dignifed old Ga.
zette does not often indulge in such un
qualified praise of any one, and this
fact adds much to the value of its opin-
ion. Thus it refers to the speech and
he speaker:
The prominent feature of Saturday
nights meeting was the speech of Hon
Job. p. Stevenson, which we print in
full. 1t was one Of the best speeches
we have heard and our readers will
agree with US that it is one of tie bosC
that has been printed in the Gazette.
The delivery was excellent; the diction
unpxceptionable and the ideas, which
we're pointed we'll, followed each other
so closely that the attention Of the au-
dience was steadily held.

The tires are now as tight as when put

with oil lis as follows: | use long cast

oil brought to boiling heat, the wheel
is placed on a stick, so as to hang in the

Southern, Peace Movements.

The Charleston Courier, of the 18th,
contains the proceedings Of meeting of
South Carolina troops, in which the late
letter of Boyce, of that State, in favor
of negotiations for peace, is warmly
commended. This meeting was gotten
up in opposition to one requesting
Boyce to resign his seat in the Confed-
crate Congress.
The Savannah News approves of the
recommendation in Governor Browns
annual message, and says: "We are
glad that Governor Brown has taken
strong grounds in favor Of couven ton
Of all the States, to settle our difficulties
with the North. His suggestions on
this subject are wise and timely, We
should be glad, indeed, to zee the ex
pertinent tried. In our opinion it can
not result in any. harm, and may result
in good. IF our Government should
directly and openly ask to have the is
sues referred to such convention, we
don I see how the North could refuse to
acquiesce. OF course the States should
90 into such a convention exactly upon
the same terms that they did in 1887.
We can not see any objections to it,
and are sorry the President has seen ft
to announce himself in opposition to
such measure" .r as
There is evidently "Peace" party
growing up in the South, which before
long may gather strength enough to
make its power felt in the direction of
public affairs. Things are working to-
gother for good, unless We greatly mis-
take the signs Of the times.

In a speech at Providence, r. l., last
week, Gen. Burnside said:
? T"T believe our'Srmies have made se'

Pile to bring about the desired result by
