TIE resolutions submitted in the rebel Con

North Carolina, and supported by his col
leagues on the floor, embrace the boldest and
mcst significant peace proposition that has yet
appeared from any responsible rebel source.
Of the slave States, at an unguarded moment,

that they are ready for peace uron the basis of
the constitution of the United States.
Stripped OF its supeafucus .verbiage, such is
the peace proposition submitted in the rebel

purpose OF strengthening the arm OF Tho

the President, in his speech at Macon, Georgia
(the speech OF J Jefi D,ys, in which he declared
that two-thrds Of his soldiers were descIters
or abscrtees without leave), and more cffec,u-
ally strengthened by the Governors OF the
Confederate States and the President, when
they recommended the use Of negroes as sol
diers in the Confederate army. I offer them
because am satisfied that my constituents,
both citizens and soldiers, desire an honorable
peace; because am satisfied that the prayers
of Christians, statesmen and patriots have been
poured out for peace, and that the great heart
of the nation is pulsating for peace. / offer
them because / know that war is relentless.

make alive, and reaping where he has not
sown." He further declared that he did not
offer this proposition to discourage their heroic
soldiers, for he believed that it would "arouse
them to know that they are fighting for some
thing more dear to them than the negro"
Here we have point blank evidence thst
North Carolina is wearied Of her terrible suf
ferings and drudgery in the hopeless cause OF
JEFF. Davis, and Is anxious to make her
escape; that her people regard this war
on the part Of Davis as war for
the negro, and that they have had enough
oft, and would gladly return to the good old
ark of the Union from the terrors of the
deluge which secession has brought upon
them. The march of Sherman across the State
OF Georgia has smboldened North Carolina TO
speak out plainly. Her representatives at
Richmond sec the handwriting on the wall
against JEFF. Davis They have, doubtless,
been brought 10 the painful suspicion that
Sherman will flank Lees army, Davis and his
whole rebel concern out Of Richmond, aCd
that then, in default Of treaty Of peace, the
work OF dcaolaton which has blackened the
soil Of Old Virginia will be visited upon North
Carolina, and that she will be eaten out and
