PEACE MISSIONS.

We are certain that there can be no truth In
the averments of the Richmond papers that
Mr.. Blair proposed on the part of this govern
ment to give to the rebels ga constitutional
guaranty for the protection Of slavery, and
even to repeal all laws prohibiting its intro
ductlon into the free States, and to pay for all
stolen negroes" &c, provided they (rebs) will
GENE back to the Union; and that proposition
failing, that Mr.. Blair s'suggested that the
United States will acknowledge the Confeder.
ate Independence provided a treaty Of com.
merce and league offensive and defensive for
the application OF the Monroe doctrine to all
the States OF North America can be agreed
upon"
The Richmond papers believe. or affect to
believe, that such was the purport OF Mr..
Blaar's informal proposal to Jef. Davis, and
upon the strength OF it they make haste to build
up for themselves a fools paradise.
The Enquirer is especially jubiiant, and says
the second mission of Mr.. Blair affords the
best evidence that " the enemy are beginning to
understand that the job is too big" and ad-
monishes its readers to stand firm, and we
shall soon rejoice in the enjoyment Of our lib
erty and independence"
Doubtless the Enquirer and other Richmond
papers are now better informed as to the pur-
port OF the Blair mission, ana have dropped
from their feol's paradise; but whether or not
they are still taking announcement from tae
Blair visit, the result Of that and preceding
s'irregular Missions to Richmond has not been
sufficiently suspicious to invite a repetition.
While Lees army remains intact at Rich
mond, the best peace missionaries we can send,
are cur regularly commissioned ones, Grant

advantages which are claimed for it over those
now in use.
These improvements do not require new am

now in use or rendered useless, at small cost,
and at the same time, render them mush more
durable than when first built. A comfortable
which the army ought to be supplied with,
