eTtheless during the conference, which lasted
four hours, the several points at issue be-
tween the Government aud the insurgents
were distinctly raised and discussed fully, IN

the insurgent party seemed chiefly TO favor
was postponement of the question OF separ-
alton upon which the war is waged, and a
mutual direction of the efforts OF the GOV
eminent, as well as those Of the insurgents, to
some extrinsic policy or scheme, for season,
during which passion might be expected to
subslde, and the armies be reduced, and the
trade and intercourse between both sections
might be resumed.
1t was suggested by them, that through
such postponemcnt we might now nave I'M
meoiate peace, with some not very certain
prospect of an ultimate satisfactory ADJUST
ment of the present political relations be-
tween the Government and the States, section
or people, new engaged with it. The sugges-
ton. though deliberately considered, was new
ertheless regarded bv the President as one OF
armistice or truce and he announced that we
can agree TO no cessation or suspension OF
hosti!It;es, except on the basis OF the clsoanC-
Tent OF the insurgent forces, and the rest"ra-
ton of the national authority throughout all
the States in the Union. Coliaterallv, and in
euooi oiifallon 10 the proposition WHICH Was
thus announced, the anti slavery policy OF the
United States was reviewed IN all It's bearings,
and the President announced that he must not
be expected to depart from the positions he
had assumed in his proclamation of emanci-
| patton and other documents, as the positions
were reiterated in his annual message. The
President assured the other party tina, while
| he must adhere to these positions, he would
| be prepared, SO far rs power is lodged with
| the Executive to exercise it literally.
! The Richmond party were then informed
| that Congress had, on the 3lst uft., adopted

/ ton submitting to the several States the pro
| position 10 abolish Slavery throughout the

will be accepted by three fourth. of the states

| law. The conference came to an end by mu
| tua acquicscence. without producing AT

The Peace Conference.

The message Of President Lincoln re-
lntins to the so-cailed peace conference IN
Hampton Roads, near Fortress Monroe,
has been sent to the House of Represent
stives, and is now before the public. The
result of that conference has proved be-
yond question that the leading rebels
have not received q sufficient amount Of
chasti.e.nent to prepare them for strict
obedience TO the laws. 1t will be seen
there was no backing down on either side.
The position of President Lincoln, that
the restoration Of the National authority
throughout all the States, submission to
nj the laws, and the disbanliug of the
rebel armies, were Indispensable to peace,
will meet hearty approval from all loyal
mon ercrywhers To these terms Davis
& Co. are not yet prepared to submit
Their desire for 4 peace conference has
evidently been forced upon them by the
sentiment of the masses in the South, and
they hope by this pretended effort for
peace 10 re-unite Southern sentiment and
Southern enthusiasm to such q degree rs
20 enable then. to prosecute the war still
. little longer
We think President Linco' acted wise
" in consentins thus to meet the commits
sioners from Richmond in an informal
manner, and communicating to them IN
person the manner in which they can have
peace: in letting them know that there
can Re but one cessation of host;lites and
that final one The dismemberment Of
the Union will mover be consented 10 by
abe people of the North, and if that is the
only condition upon which the South will
submit, now Is the time 10 make it known.
If the late reverses to the South are not
sufficient to open their eyes that the North
is becoming in earnest q few more cam
paicn. like that of Sherman through
Georgia and his present opera tons in
south Carolina will tend TO convince
them of their error If determination is
their only condition Of peace, there are

The Richmond papers confirm the re-

Sherman's forces, and also renew the re-
port of the evacuation Of Charleston by
the rebe's. We doubt the latter report,
but deem its capture at no distant day a

The capture of Branchville cuts of the

sition to work either wav. as he chooses.
