JEFF. DAVIS ON PEACE NEGoTIATr0Ns.-When
JEFF. Davis wrote his lannon's letter on peace
to the Georgia legislators 1t was on the rth Of
November, 1864, and his tone was correspond
ingly stiT and uncompromising. Since then
Hoods army has been battered and shattered
by Thomas into q nonentity; Sherman hos
swept Georgia as with bosom, and captured
Savannah, and Fort Fisher is ours. Now that
Wilmington is also ut the mercy Of the Union
army, we wonder what are Jeff.'s opinions on
the peace question January IL, 1865.
The New York herald., 1865-01-23

The REBEL LOAN IN EURopE.-The last chance
of the rebels to maintain loan in Europe has
gone with the capture of Fort Fisher They
depended entirely upon their exported cotton
to raise gold 10 pay the interest on the loan. and
now that Wilmington is effectually shut up the
loan must go to the dogs.
The New York herald., 1865-01-23

WHAT Will. BECOME OF THE FLEET OF
BLOCKADE RUNNERS tit is curious to specu-
late upon what Is to become Of the block
ade runners now There are at present some
dozen or fifteen of them due at Wilmington,
from Nassau, Bermuda and Halifax. Their
captains of course, ore still in happy ignorance
of the state Of affairs at Wilmington. II is not
improbable that Admiral Porter will let them
slip in, as they arrive, and then grab them all.
Five of them have already been entrapped.
There will be fearful panic among the rebel
agents and sympathizers in Europe when the
news Of the fall Of Fort Fisher reaches there.

ton to obtain their request II they pleased.
This they decided 70 do, and accordingly .
deputation was appointed TO wait ON Mr.. Lin
coin. These gentlemen were to have como
North on the Fulton, but, owing to some failure
In the time Of starting, or making connections
between Hilton Head and Savannah, they were
delayed, and viii probably arrive here by the
next steamer
They rest their claims, It appears, upon the
statement that this cotton Is the property Of
loyal men; that they saved 1t from falling into
the hands Of the rebel General Hardee, and
that Its seizure by the government will not
only prevent more cotton being sent to Savan-
nah from the country, but that 1t will induce
the rebels to burn the cotton stored at Mobile,
Wilmington and other places. This is the
argument Of the Savannah merchants; but the
government argues that it has right to sell,
and will sell this cotton, turn 1t into gold, and
allow the owners to put in their claims after
wards, and prove their loyalty il they can.
The idea that the holders of cotton at Mobile
or Wilmington will be induced to destroy the
article, If the Savannah cotton is not restored,
is absurd. The adjustment we have suggested
will have the very contrary effect The cotton
owners are not so deluded as to prefer hand
full of ashes to a fair price in greenbacks for
their material. They will prefer letting itgo
into the hands of the government, and sending
their claims, properly authenticated, to the
Treasury Department at Washington. The Sa-
vannah committee design to wait upon our
Chamber of ofCommerce,, and ask the interference
of that old fogy concern with tho government
in behalf Of their mission. The Chamber Of
Commerce can exercise no influence in the mat
ter, and the probability is that when these Sa-
vannah gentlemen proceed to Washington
they will find that the question will be settled
just as we predict.
The New York herald., 1865-01-23


free to 60 in any direction; but, instead Of re-
suming bis search for "some sequestercd spot"
be forthwith returned to Richmond and to his
seat In that Congress Whyi Because during
his absence that Congress had undergone re-
volution-n had turned against the despotic
designs Of Davis; and becanse, from the move
ments Of General Sherman and the fall Of Fort
Fisher, there was . revolutionary commotion
in Richmond which promised to General Foote
successful and speedy issue, with resump-
tion Of bis labors for the overthrow Of Davis,
and in behalf Of negotiations for peace.
The extraordinary individual in this case
may go for what he Is worth. II is the incident
Of his return to the rebel Congress that serves
our purpose, as it marks the changed condi
tion of affairs at Richmond. General Foote
evidently thinks that great events are at hand;
that the day Of peace Is fast approaching, and
that 1t will be to his advantage to be in at the
downfall and political death of Davis. The
term "servile" win no longer apply to his two
houses of Congress. They denounce his incom-
potency; they meet his threats with defiance;
they are resolved to supplant him and to place
the destinies Of the "confederacy" In the hands
of man who will know what to do when fight
ing will only invite destruction. Davis has
been reduced by his troubles and disasters to
raging and senseless fanatic. He would arm
and liberate all the slaves within his lines; he
would risk the horrors Of servile revolt; he
would turn over the Southern States and people
as colonies and subjects Of England, France
and Spain; he would see them oil destroyed
and their homes given up to the flames rather
than yield to the penalties of his crimes by
submission to the Union. General Lee, on the
other hand, is an unselfsh soldier and man Of
cool reflection; and We regard the movement
Of the rebel Senate in his favor as movement
for submission and peace.
The test will probably come with the urgent
necessity for the evacuation or surrender of
Richmond. Rumors are again aioat of prepa-
tions for an evacuation, and the removal OF
the rebel concern-Davis, Cabinet and Con-
gress--under the escort Of General Lee, to some
safer place further south 1t is evident that
such an evacuation cannot be much longer de-
layed. Wilmington, if not already abandoned,
is no longer place to the rebels worth defend
ing; Sherman is heading in that direction, and
Grant is on the watch in front of Lee. The
game of the latter is blocked, except in re-
treat to Lynchburg or Danville; but in falling
back to either Of these places he will retire
only to the "last ditch" On the other hand, as
the abandonment Of the rebel capital by the
enemy must now inevitably complete the de-
moralization and confusion, and precipitate the
dissolution of the "confedeacy," we shall not
be surprised If the peace party at Richmond
succeed in revolution, under the wing Of Gen.
Lee, which will save the honor Of his army and
yet secure the inevitable Union ultimatum Of
treaty Of submission and peace.
