Highly Important frem Richmond
Peace Negotiations Resumed.
We have the information direct from Rich
mond that President Lincoln is there actually
engaged upon the business Of peace; that on
Tuesday evening last he had private confer
ence with Judge Campbell, one Of the three
rebel commissioners in the famous Hampton
Roads conference. Judge Campbell, it is I'M
derstood, by and with the advice and consent
of JEFF. Davis, with the rebel evacuation Of
Richmond, remained behind to see what could
be done in behalf of his despairing rebel asso-
ciates and followers in treaty of peace. We
are further informed that Wednesday last had
been appointed as the day for q more formal
meeting between the President, General Welt
eel and one or two others on the Union side,
and Judge Campbell and some other prominent
rebel leaders on their side, and that high ex-
pectations were entertained that peace would
speedily follow.
We attach the highest importance to this
intelligence; for we accept 1t as substantially
true. II is altogether probable that Davis may
have come to the conclusion that if he desires,
in behalf Of himself and his ruling confederates,
any abatement or Communication of the pains
and penalties of treason now is his only time,
while yet he maintains something like
respectable show of resistance in the field.
That Judge Campbell is hopeful Of some liberal
concessions from Mr.. Lincoln, for the sake of
immediate peace, we are fully disposed to
believe. But what can the President do, with
the laws Of Congress restricting him to fixed
line of action? Sworn to see the laws faith
fully executed, can he 60 beyond them? lie
cannot; but he can promise some notifications,
so far as they may be attainablsethroush
message to Congress, with the meeting of an
extra session upon the subject. He may 60
still further in the exercise Of his military dis
erection, which in such war as this cannot be
regulated by Congressional enactments.
We know nothing Of the purposes or views Of
President Lincoln in connection with his visit
to Richmond; but we do know something Of
his mmane disposition, and shall be somewhat
disappointed If we do not receive before his
departure from Richmond the announcement
of q proclamation which will finish the disarm-
ing Of the rebellion, and win back the masses
Of the Southern people to the blessings Of the
Union and of peace.

The HERALD CIRCULATION AND ADvERrsING.-
of the HERALD had reached on the previous
day the immense number of hundred and
thirty-one thousand five hundred and twenty
copies 1920, exclusive Of the eleven
thousand which we usually supply to the Army
OF the Potomac every day, but which have, OF
course, been suspended since that victorious
army commenced its movement in pursuit Of
Lee and the remnant of the rebellion. We
have to announce to-day that the circulation
has since advanced TO hundred and thirty
three thousand two hundred 133,2 00). When
the Potomac army comes to q stand, 80 that
will therefore be hundred and forty-four
thousand two hundred copies q day. We have
not tme--so late does important news arrive
to work off more than this immense issue with
our present machinery and space. Our adver-
Using business is in the same plcthoric condi-
days past to leave out one, two or three COL
umns of advertisements each day, and some
tines moro, for want of room. This may be a
disappointment 10 some of our advertisers; but
il was an imperative necessity. We shall soon
have to adopt the systematically in practice in
the London Tmes-of letting advertisers take
their place according TO number-frst come
iirst served being the rule. We see no other
plan of discriminating as to the surplus adver-
tisemcnts which cannot find o place In our
columns.

From the bombardment of Sumter to the cap
ture of Richmond and Petersburg, this corps Of
correspondents have enabled us to present
to the public the earliest and most graphic pic
lures az battles, marches, siegcs, scouts and
skirmishes, and have displayed an intelligence,
o quickness and oloseness Of observation,
capacity for literature and for business, an
anxiety to state facts and ON appreciation Of
the Importance of their positions which cannot
be too highly commended.
Now that the war Is nearly over, doubtless
these correspondents are asking themselves
what we intend to do with them. We
shall send them as our ambassadors to
all the great capitals Of the world-not
to the capitals of Europe merely, as is
the present style of foreign correspondence,
but to the capitals OF all the Powers great
enough to have interesting news. Just as there
is HERAID's Headquarters" tent with every
army and HERALD bureau at Washington, SO
there shall be HERALD legation in all the
chief cities from Melbourne to Spitzbergen.
Using the Atlantic cable and the Russian tele-
graph, these correspondents, who have &C
qured experience, tact and vigor in the school
of this war; will send us every item of intelli-

news of revolution in Pekin or the discovery
of Sir John Franklin at the North Pole before
the event happens, if allowance be not made
for the difference in time. Let those who re-
gard this project as utopian compare the pres

in 1776; the present position of New York with
its position thirty years ago; the HERALD of to-

ENGLAND GETTING SHAKY.-The glorifcation
of jeff. Davis has given way in the British
Parliament to apprehensions Of war with the
United States. If her Majesty's Cabinet would
avoid the danger of such rupture they can
not too soon declare the revocation Of "the bel
ligerent rights" which were so hastily conceded
to JEFF. Davis at the beginning of this struggle,
and which still remain unrecalled. Lord Pal
merston was apparently so happy in the oppor-
tunity of this quasi recognition of a Southern
confederacy that he could not wait the arrival
of President Lincolns representative, Mr..
Adams. That was the first and most grievous
of all the offences of England towards the
United States in reference to this domestic
struggle of ours. That offence calls for some
atonement, and we are quite sure that it will be
to the advantage Of the offending party to
make atonement without further loss of time.

4 MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIREcrIoN-A
Day Dock FoR EvAxsvrLLK.-We are
glad to see that there 10 a project on foot
to build Dry Dock at this city for the
convenience of steamboats,, and we hope
to see such assistance aud encourage
ment extended to. the undertaking as
win insure its success. e hHa
Messrs Lavender and Lee, both old
steamboatmen builders and excellent
mechanics, the latter now engaged in
building steamboats, here, propose TO
build dry dock sufficient to dock any
steamboat that can pass the locks in the
canal at Louisville.
They propose to make joint stock
company, and estimate the cost of the
dock at $24, 900, of which they will take
$1,000, or about one-taird of the whole
They desire that the citizens Of Evans
Vile shall take the balance of the stock,
and of course share in the profits OF the
enterprise. sz
The importance fsuch an enterprise
to the city Of Evansville must occur to
every one at once. Steamboats, instead
Of being compelled TO go to Madison,
Louisville, or Cincinnati, or to Paducah,
or Mound City, could be repaired fully
here, and would give employment to our
mechanics for labor, and to our mer-
chants, feundrymen, lumbermeu, &c,
and thousands Of dollars would be cir
culAted in this city which now goes
elsewhere
During the past year several nice
steamboats, have been built here, all of
which are q credit to the place, aud the
business in this line of industry would
be vastly increased By having a good
Dry Dock. There 10 less risk to those
investing in this enterprise than in some
enterprises in which our citizens have
very, properly and very wisely engaged,
for ifsthe Dry Dock does not receive
patronage sufficient to sustain it, it can
be sold for . vharfbeat or for usa As =
Dry Dock for some other place Gen
tIemen having steamboats, running in
the lower Ohio, are interested in this
matter, and We suggest that meeting
be called to consider the matter. The
true Interests Of the city are to build up
manufactures and other industrial en-
serprises, and so conduct them as to
attract custom from abroad.

JEFF. DAvIss CAPTURE Under this
caption the Vincennes San of the 26th
publishes an article from the New York
NesCs relative to the capture, intro
ducing it with few editorial remarks,
accepting as true the Ners's version of
the story. The information comes from
Confederate officer and contradicts, in
every particular, the official dispatches
Of Col Pritchard, and the coroborative
evidence of all the loyal correspon-
dents.
This Confederate officer positively de-
clares that Mrs. Darts soas not scitk
her husband, having gone to Mississippi
q month or more previous"
my informant" says the correspond
ent, did not see or hear of her up to
the time they reached Augusta. Il is.
therefore, unlikely that she was With Mr..
Davis at the time of his capture. In
the opinion of this officer, Dayis made
little effort to evade capture, as he
seemingly travelled at leisure. He ia
reported TO have said, in reference to the
allegation that be was concerned in the
assassination of Mr.. Lincoln, that he
challenged an investigation"
1t is well known that the New York
Neaos is an undisguised rebel sheet. or
at least it has done all it could 10 aid
and comfort the rebels, and this has,y
endorsement Of the spacious lie, by the
SuR, shows exactly where il and its edi-
tor stands. It's publication BY the San
is evidently for the purpose of molIify-
ing the wounds of disappointment the
capture of Davis inflicted on the editor
of the Sun and his rebel friends.
Here ia what the Sun says:
"A Washington correspondent of the
New York Neacs gives the following re-
lAtiye to the capture of Davis. twill
be seen that it does not confirm the alb
surd stories going the rounds of the
press in regard to the affair. The fact
that Mrs. Davis was aot with her hus-
band destroys the effect of the romantic
pictures and illustrations gotten ND for
the occasion"
1t will thus be seen that the editor of
the san places a higher estimate on the
word of Confederate Officer than on
the official reports Of Federal officers.
