SENSE FROM ASOUTHERNER.-Now here
is the wav our people reason about the
matter. They say, I'VE have got to start
life anew. We want peace; we want that
kind of peace which will be permanent"
You all have not felt the war here like we
have. Our homes are desolate. Our land
is nearly waste. Our children are nearly
upon the point of starvation, aud, there
fore, it behOOves US to look about and see
how we are to avoid such troubles as these
for the future. We want q permanent
peace. We know we cannot have per-
manent peace while negro slavery exists,
and we know more than that, that we cam
not recover from our misfOrtunes 1T once,
if slavery remains there. We want, first,
q permanent peace, and second, that kind
Of peace which will enable us the more
readily 10 recover from our misforiunes.-
We put no question Of humanity into the
scale. If you want TO say that it WAS tho
only say that slavery is dead. Say tho
abolitionists killed it if you please; say
what you like, only help US bury 1t forever.
In order to recover from our mi>;ortunes
the sooner, we must open up cur country
to the whole world, and in order to do that
you have got to take up the remains OF ne
gro slavery, and open the land TO white la
Dor from every part of the habitabie globe.
We want the Government restorea-re-
stored peaceably, rapidly and permanently;
and tell you now tonight, solemnly be-
fore heaven, there is but one way 10 restore
this Government, and that is TO press your
columns forward. Do you suppose that l,
Southern man, would implore you to send
the dagger to the heart of my people-born
and reared in their midst, with every i'm
pulse Of my heart throbbing with theirs?
No, sir, but l do not want to see this war
dragged along and new loads Of woe, and
anguish and sorrow weighing that people
down, but ! want them relieved at once,
l want a keen, sharp, strong, powerful
blow struck, in order that the whole thing
may collapse. And when you talk about
peace on any terms, or about peace con-
ventions, or about missions 70 them, and
about eiecting a peace candidate Tor the
comfort. whether you intend it or not
Gen. can't.

ANovEL CYPHER.-An interesting chap
ter in the history of these troublous times
might be written on the strange meaning
given to words and sentences in the cyphers
used by the stock -jobbers in New York and
their agents here to notify each other of inn
portant events affecting the gold and stock
market. For instance, a young man want
ed to tell Wall street broker yesterday,
that the Committee on Ways and Means
would authorize Secretary Chase to put
several millions of dollars in gold III mar
ket. He ran to the telegraph office and
communicated his knowldgeto his employ
ers in the following dispatch: "My wife
died yesterday. Send q metallic collin
The reader viii be puzzled to find out The
analogy between the death Of a mans wife
and heavy gold sale by Mr.. Chase, but the
STOCKHOLDERS understood it perfectly. An
other gentleman conveys similar piece Of
news over the wires through the following
dispatch-"My sister Eliza was married
last june" Thus it will be seen that diff
lererA causes, like results produce the de-
cease OF wife and the marriage of a sister,
served the very same purpose, and seem TO
VA nave been equally feiicitous events in the
we OF TWO different persons.

THE news from about Richmond is highly
favorable. Slowly, but surely, Grants tight.
ening his iron grip on the doomed city. He
gains a little in every movement, and holds
all he gains in spite Of the desperate and oft.
repeated attacks OF the enemy to dislodge
him. So closely is the city invested that
many of the residences in the suburbs are
now in the Union lines. Our advance is
only some four and half miles distant from
the heart Of the city. Our forces establish.
ed themselves on, the north bank of the
James, capturing Fort Harrison, and on Sat.
urday Of last week the rebels made desps-
rate, but unavailing effort to retake the posi-
tion,-losing not less than Eve thousand men
in the contest. On the South side Of the
James our forces made movement which
though not quite as successful as the one OIL
the north bank, still secured us an important
and advantageous advanced position. The
rebels are said to be almost panic stricken
over their inability to beat back the steady
advance Of the Union army. Men not con.
sidered to be over sanguine predict that Rich!
