Peace Commissioners from the Rebels.

The rebels have appointed Alexander
II. Stephens, II. Nj. T. Hunter and james
II. Campbell commissioners to visit Wash
ington to confer about Peace. Mr. Seward
and his private secretary went on We'd
nesday to Fortress Monroe to meet them.
The affair has created quite sensation,
but few seem TO expect much on either
side. From rebel sources we learn that
Sherman has commenced movement on
South Carolina in three columns, the main
column going toward Charleston, and TAX.

Miss Dickinson at Brattleboro.

We had the pleasure of hearing the lee
ture by Miss Ann Dickinson, at Brattle-
boro, on Tuesday evening. She made
very excellent speech, as was TO be ex-
pected. Her arguments We're strong, based
upon strong facts, and put in strong lam
guage. Some passages, perhaps, were
more fierce, coming from woman, than
the same would have appeared from man.
Her eloquence and pathos were truly
grand, and entirely carried the audience,
and her sarcasm came down with an un-
sparing hand, especially when she spoke of
" reconstruction" as exhibited by the bru-
tai attack Of Field, of Louisiana, upon
Judge Kelley. Severe upon copperheads,
we were glad she did not spare the faults
Of the Union party, declaring that if they
failed 10 do justice in the present crisis,
the democratic party would take it up to
obtain their lost mower ia the nation. She
spoke just one hour, occupying less time,
we presume, than she otherwise would on
account of her voice being effected by a
cold.
The audience was very large. We
don't know how many the car aeious Town
Hall will hold, but it was crowded full,
and most people seemed to think there
were | COO people present, at least. There
were nearly two carloads went down on
the Valley railroad from this place, West
minister, Walpole, and Putney.

FIRE IN WARDsBoRo-A barn be-
longing to DIR. Martin, in Wardsboro, at
the north end of the village was destroyed
by fire on Saturday evening, 2lst uit.-
The people rallied but the fire made such
rapid progress that the barn and its con-
tents, except few sheep and two cows,
were consumed. A lot of poultry sever
al tuns of hay, two horses. and farming
tools were destroyed with the building
The loss is about $500 and partly insured.
1t appears that the Doctor had just re.
turned home, and directed his son, lad of
ten or twelve years of age, TO put the horse
in the barn. After putting the horse in
the stall he went to feed him, and set his
| lantern, filed with kerosene oil, in the
usual place, and while feeding, by some
means the lantern fell and broke, the oil
spreading over the hay which in mo-
ment was in flames.
