WASHINGTON, February 2.-Ramors Of,
course, will prevail like snow storm, Tor two
or three days. The latest is that the move OF
. President OH our board has been already mt
Nv corresponding move on the Rebel board.
Mr.. Davis is said to be on the peace path to
meet Mr.. Lincolo But among the facts ard
not the rumors, is the significant one that this
whole peace mission business has beer excn
ied from Cabinet consultations. That Mr.
F1ssenden has not been consulted about 1t any
more than Mr. Stanton Indeed, it is under.
stood that Postmaster General DeDnison and
Mr.. Seward only have been let into it, and
advised with. The leading members Of the
COMMITTEE on the Conduct of the War openly
f;enounce the business TO night, and predicC
mat we shall be sold out, and that the peace
We shall obtain if any We do, will dl honor us:
They charge that the negotiations permitted

Of the Democrats.

from the Washington Chronicle

From the washington CAfoliCie.j
It NAV be said that, if Mr.. Lincoln or Mr.
Seward had gone to meet or had been supposed
70 % TO meet the Southern Commissioners,
we DO not think there would have been vote
against the joint resolution aholishing slavery,
10 the House of Representatives, on Tuesday
afternoon, the 3Ist Of January, 1865. And
what is true of the mere organs Of politics is
undoubtedly true of the people Ut course,
there are individuals and classes who Will op
pose any Peace which does not I'LL up their
visions of special beatitude, or their cherish
Ell ideas Of an inhuman vengeance. But the
People Of this Republic are eager to be TRENDS
again. To accom- pish this both sides will
Weld much. There is comon impulse and
on:roline interest which force them to it.
T. S. CONGRESS In the Senate, yester
DIV, Mr., Wilson'S amended enrolment bill
was made the special order for to day. Mir.
Hale's resolution relative TO the lmprlson.
