! New York, Feb. 4th.-It was brief y
announced by telegraph this morning
that Lincoln and Seward returned to
j Washington after a conference with the
rebcl commissioners, which resulted in
no change Of attitude, OF any movement
on the part of the rebels.
/ No details are yet made known. nor is
/ ii probable they viii transpire, the
! President and Seward being the only
/ parties present on oRr side, the conference
being entirely iofornrai anI more in
| the character Of a general conversation,
| TO e!ict views Of all who com pOsed it than
| grave diplomatic discussion.
The conversation did not result in
anything p'atsriai--the main feature
Involving a question of separation ii
| States and Reconstruction, having been
LEFT undecided. ofcourse, thoSe,of mission
character could have no existence, and so
the parties separated.
| As far as Gao be aScertsined, nothing
was said as to future meeting.
! The issue seems to be left precisely
/ where it was before the conference.
| Washington Feb 4th.-SENArE.-~
