Vivid Description Of Sea esgight.

The Wilmington Journal, whose editor
must have ''beeh there DefoFe,'' gives a
graphic and consoliug account of the sea
encounter with the Yankees off that port
He says:
cit is said the land forces under Butler,
who came along with Porter to close up
our port, got awfuily sea-sick. They laid
down on their backs and on their stomachs'
they grunted: they groaned; they cursed;
they prayed; they cast up accounts; they
paid tribute to Neptune; they threw up the
coats aDd the waistooats Of their stomachs;
they threw up their boots; they became
cataracts; they. said New York they
cursed their fathers and their mothers
likewise Beast Butler. whom an Irish gen
tleman denominated the baste they had
a high old time; and if they spoiled oul
Christmas, it is some comfort to know that
they were as miserable as human nature
could well be. Blu. Ter himself was off bis
his grog, and the black soldiers looked blue
and green, diversified by n1ott!od yellow
4 sea-sick niger brigade is a sight for
gods and men. # any of them did sink,
We have no doubt they hailed it as a prov.
idensinl deliverance from their woes, which
! were intolorable. An ugly coast is this

There is great gulf that rolls between

Mr.. Francis ?. Blair, ST. left Richmond
on Saturday, on the flag of-truce boat, for
Grants lines. AS tho end, and object.
and results, Of his mission have furnished
the theme for endless speculation and dis
aussion, we are glad to be able to relieve
public curiosity BY laying before our read
ers some facts concerning his interview with
the President He called upon the Pres
ident on Friday morning. The meeting,
especially upon the part of Mr.. Blair, was
marked BY degree of cordiality that was
IS refreshing as it was unexpected. Tie
shook the Presidents hand warmly, assur-
ing him at the same time of his undimin-
ished regard ana esteem. The first com
pliment over, he requested a private con-
ference with the President, which was in
me3iately accorded him. After private
conversation of an hours duration, Mr..
Blair took bis leave, expressing himself
highly gratifed with the reception he had
met and the results Of the Conference
Some time after his departure, the Presi-
dent wrote him note, stating that as he
CIR. Blair) would, peril APPS like to have
in writing what he (Mr. Davis) had said to
him, he had written to report that he was
willing, as he had ever been, to appoint
commissioners to meet commissioners of
I'Mr. Lincoln, with view to an adjustment
of the difficulties existing between the two
countries. It is understood that Mr.. Blair
| told the President that he came in no Off
cial character, but simply with the knuwl-
edge and consent of MIR. Lincoln. He
expressed the opinion that Mr.. Lincoln
would certainly appoint commissioners to
meet the commissioners appointed by our
President
The same boat that carried Mr.. Blair
down the James river brought back Gen.
eral Singleton. an Illinois Peace Democrat,
another unauthorized peace commissioner.
This peace commissioned business is fast be-
coming ridiculous. Eorthe benefit Of whom
it may concern, wewill state that General
Singleton is at the Spotswood Hotel, where
he has been called on by number Of citi-
zens.
We should not be surprised to see old
Horace Greeley next, flying around in
Richmond as peace commissioner.
Hon. Henry S. Foote, of Tennessee, is
still at Fredericksburg, the House of Rep
resehtatiyes not having yet decided what
action they will take in his case. Persons
who came down from fredericksburg yes
terday state Mr. sFoote was very indignant
that he shold have been arrested, and de-
manded to be brought to Richmond imme-
diately and when this was refused him,
he wrote to Judge Halyburton, petitioning
for writ of habeas corpus.
