ment Of JEFF Davis's willingness b negotiate for the
benefit Of two countries. lie had been sent TO Rich

Two theories prevail as 10 Mr. BlaIs missions The
one is that they were set on foot FOR the needs of Mr.
Lncons inaugural address in which is said that the
President will declare TO the world that he has honestly
and humsnely endeavoIe persuade the Rebels to lay
down their arms and terminate the By arrange.
ment full of clemency while preserving the national
unity; that his Offers and solicitations had been
jected and that alternative is LEFT to him but Wig
prosecution OF the to the total crushing out
of the Rebellion The other theory is that Mr. Blairs
impulses in the direction OF peace guiding his genius
for political arrangement took him 10 Richmond an
eand Of pacifcation which the President felt might do
good and could not DO hurt but which Mr. Lincoln put
restrictions on, prevent is being personally mis-.
chievous 10 himself embarrassing TO bis adminstra.

II is said that he exceeded these powers on his first
mission that he rendered concessions TO the Rebels and
held ont promises which Ny Lincoln disapproved Of

PHILADELPHIA, Friday, Jan. p, 1865.
The following is a special dispatch to Tht
EceRiag Ttltgrgph:
WARRINGTON, Friday, Jan. q, 1865.
is now definitely known that Mr.. Blair's mission 70
Richmond has been crowned with complete success.
Mr.. Davis pledged himself TO send Immediately
three gentlemen 10 Washington, to confer upon terms
Of peace.
Mr.. Davis stated distinctly TO Mr.. Blair that he
would conclude peace and return to tie Union upon
terms that would be perfectly satisfactory to Mr.. Lin
coin and Congress.
Dir. Blair also had interview with Gen. Lee, who
ayowed himself DESTROYS Of ending the rebellion by lay
ing down their arms and returning to the Union.
Mr.. Blair also conyersed with majority Of the Rebel
Congressoen, who Represented themselves as IN favor
Of abandoning further bostilites.
There can be 10 doubt that in a day or two at
fnrthest Commissioners viii reach Washington 10 bring
from the rtpentant Rebels renewed allegiance 10 the
Union, the Constitution and tie Laws.
Mr. Blair experienced tie kindcst OF treatment at
the hands Of the authorities and reports that since
the reduction of Fort Fisher entire reyusion Of pub
lie opinion has taken place.
The most extreme advocates OF fighting it ont 10
the bitter end" now admit the hcpeessness Of their
cause.
The probability Of an early peace was heeiy dis
cussed in leading social and political circles in Rich
mond, and general feeling Of joy and relief resulted
from the rapid circulation Of The Information.
