MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1865.
THE rebel commissioners have returned
to Richmond with this assurance, that the
Government of United States will not
make peace with the insurgents unless they
submit unconditionally to the Union. The
responsibility of the war remains with the
South. The President has done for peace
more than could have bden asked of him ;
by a personal conference with the rebel
commissioners he has made it impossi-
ble that. the enemy should misunderstand
the terms upon which the war may be
ended at once, and has again proved to
the world the sincerity of our wish for
'peace. It has been objected that the Pre
sident lowered the dignity of his'office in
consenting to meet subordinate officers of
the Confederacy ; but none of its officers
, are recognized by the Government, and to
the President of the United States JEFF
DAVIS and ALEXANDER H. •STEPaENs are
alike insurgents, and nothing more.
Though the rebel commissioners did not
come with authority to offer the submission
of their fellows, it is certain that their ex
press object was to learn positively from
the Government what submission means.
They desired to be informed how far the
existing laws and acts of Congress pro
viding for the punishment of rebels, the
confiscation of their property, etc., would
be modified by an immediate acknow
ledgment of the authority of the Union.
They have their information, ,and may
act upon it. It must not be forgotten
that the . Government of the United States
does not recognize a Government at
Richmond representative of the South ; it
acknowledges simply an insurgent pow
er, with -any part of which it may make
peace. It may make peace with Georgia,
and continue to coerce South Carolina ;
With STEPBRNB, and continue the war with
DAY'S. It is bound to offer generous and
just terms to any portion of the rebellion
which expresses a desire to submit. Thus
' much for; the theory of such negotiations as
those at Fortress Monroe. As for the fact,
it is plain that no partial restoration of peace
was discussed with the rebel commissioners
but the complete abandonment of the re
bellion.
The Government has done its part. We
have now to await the action of the men
Who have control of the rebel armies. In
the meanwhile the war continues. : Let it
go on with redoubled energy.

a lively interest in the great improvements of the

WASHINGTON, Feb. s.—lt is ditlioult to procure de
tails of the conference between the 'President, the
Secretary of S tate and the rebel commissioners, but It
is asserted that the President throughout the con
versation insisted that he should continue the prose
°Mien of the war on the principle heretofore de
clared, narsely i of compelling obedience to the Clon,
etitution and on the basis of the Union, and ad
mitting peace only on these terms. With him
there was to be no deviation from this course,
so the commissioners were left in no doubt
Whatever on this material point. The conversa
tion was conducted in the most courteous and re
speotful manner, and the commissioners returned
to Richmond thoroughly understanding the views
expressed by the President. Therefore, if anything
further is to be said on this sabjeot, it must come
from the Confederates themselves. As has here
tofore been stated, there was no agreement upon
any point at issue. It le asserted by the intimate
friends of the President that no conclusion or pro
mise was made by them In the least degree yielding
the position, as above stated, and which he has, In
public and private communication, maintained.
Whatever may be the speculations as to peace
movements- In the future, it is certain that there
will be no abatement made in our miLltary-opsra-
Hone, but that the effort will be to prosecute the
war with additional vigor, so that our successes may
procure an early peace.
The Chronicle says: "The blind fatuity - Whit%
possessed the rebel leaders, at the outset of the re
bellion, rules them inexorably still, and the sword
of justice must execute the work which the folly of
blinded leaders would not accord to the arts of paci

WASHINGTON, Fob. 4-10 O'CLOCK P. M.—Nuoh
surprise was eel:fastened this meriting by the- early
return of, the President and Secretaryof State, and
it was not long before many conflicting reports were
circulated regarding the result of their mission.
The antagonistic positions of the two Govern
mente were known on the return of Mr. Blair from
Richmond—the one desiring 'peace on the basis
of separate Independence and recognition, and
the' other en the basis
...of unconditional sub
minion to the Union. It was clear that the
rebels themselves did not anticipate a ready
compliance with their demands, whilethore was an
earnest feeling on the part of the President to do
all that was compatible with his honor and public
expediency in the premises, and he evinced not a
little anxiety to induce an accommodation.
It was briefly announced by telegraph this morn
ing that President Lincoln and Secretary Seward
had returned to Washington after a oonforeice
with the rebel commissioners, which resulted
in no change of the attitude of' either the
Government' of the rebels. Private telegrams
have since basin received making inquiry as to the
truth of thie statement, bemuse the whole truth
bad not been stated with regard to the prospeetive
and immediate results from Richmond. Now, that
brief telegram is reliable, and was obtained from
the best authority. No details have yet been made
known, nor is it probable that they will transpire,
the President and Secretary Seward being the only
party present on our side, and the conference being
entirely informal—more in the character of _ a
general conversation to elicit the views of all
who composed It than a grave diplomatic dis
cussion. Beyond this, whatever may be said must
be mere Speculation. The conversation did not re
sult In an agreement. The main feature, involving
the questions of separation of and submission to the
Union having been left undecided, of course those
of a minor character could have no existence, and
so the parties separated. As far as San be -ascer
tained nothing was said as to future meetings, and
the issue relents to be left preciselfwhere it was be
fore the conference. There is no verification or the
report circulating today that•they had agreed upon
a general eiehange of prisoners.

SPEECH OF GEN. BITTLER AT BOSTON
The Conistitutional Abolition of Slavery,
EVERY NEGRO MUTE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN
Massachusetts Unalterably Opposed to the Colo-
(Special Report for Tb• Prem.)
BOSTON, February 6, 1884
At the public meeting held at the Music Hall, in
this city, last evening, In honor of the passage by
Cm:grass of the Constitutional amendment pro.
hibiting human slavery In the United States, Major
General B. F. Butler delivered the following
speech:
Alnicet ninety years since, amid the radiant
glories of midsummer, our fathers assembled to
congratulate each other upon a declaration of
human rights which has since been claimed to be
a charter to the white man only. Soventy.soven
years ago, in midwinter, Massachusetts debated the
accept ance of the Constitution of the United States
the solemn compact of assurance to those lights—the
most, perfect form of government ever devised by
man, but which left uneared for and unprovided safe.
guards of freedom and equality of right to all men,
irrespective of color. Oar fathers believed that the
clear Interests of the rising nation would protect it
from the receding weight of human slavery. Bat,
alas I a single Massachusetts Invention—the ootton•
gin—opposed the present Interests of the individual
to the future good of the State, and made the bur
den—greater than that of the Pilgrim Christian—
teem eternal. From that one deleet of oonetitu
tient' law has arisen the most gigantic national
eln, followed by the most terrible national retribu
tion with which the Divine will has seen fit to afflict
the children of men. • The nation brought to a sense
of justice by its chastisement, we are now met to
congratulate ourselves upon the first step taken in
supplying this omission of the frame of govern
ment of 'M. Released from all constitutional obli
gations to protect slavery, acting upon the frame of
government itself, throe-fourths of the loyal • people
of the country will have no difficulty in erasing from
their fundamental law this the last blot upon their
civilization. Amid the joyous scones of this triumph
of the right which animate. the hearts of all good
men, even now and here, it may not be nein to
psalm for a moment to consider the duties and obli
gations under which we and ourselves to this class,
constituted and declared by this change in oar
organic' law. Laying aside all prejudices, giving
up all theories, putting away all predilections ;
we should approach the subject as one ealflog for
prompt, active, and efficient justice; at least to
make amends for former long-continued wrongs.
By the final passage of the amendment which we
celebrate, every negro slave is made a citizen of the
United Storms, entitled as of right to every political
and legal immunity and privilege which belongs to
that great franchise. He may well say: "I am an
American citizen." If he may notioroudly proolaim
with the apostle, " I was born yet he can truly
Maim as did the chief captain, o ith a groat snm
obtained / this freedom." Of theae rights or elther of
them, no man, and no combination or confederation
of men, oan with justice deprive the negro. As a
nation he is of us, with us, and a part of us, equal
in right under the law. To the men of Massaohn.
setts, in this so clear and eelkivident proposition
there seems no difficulty. Since nee the colored
man in Massachusetts, tinder the laws thereof,
modified only by the laws of the United States, has
eijoyed the rights and privileges of every other citi
zen of Massachusetts, The Child goes to the same
school. The man partakes' of She same employ
ments. The same learned professions, medicine,
the bar, the pulpit, are open to him, and, more than
all, he carries to the election of his rulers and Rain
ing of the laws the equal ballot, which,
In other sections of the country, the mind warped
and twisted by theinfluenoe of the system of slavery
whose funeral obsequies we are now attending—
does net at once comprehend these truths, and admit
the force of the inexorable logic of EQUAL InORTS.
lien otherwise just and good have beau brought to
believe that the negro can have no practical rights
as a citizen ; no claims to be considered as an inte
gral part of the inhabitants of the Country, and is to
be treated at if he were an alien—nay, more, as if he
were a beast, and a dangerous beast beside ; either to
be sent tut of tho country or to be herded and
penned as such in some remote or unhealthy corner
thereof, as not fit to live on the soil which gave him
birth, and to which h 6 has every right, and 13 held
by every tie and attachment which binds a man to
that portion of earth which he calls home and coun
try: It has been, therefore, proposed to send him
away—to herd him in rice swamps or cotton islands
—where alone he may listen to the sad music of the
roar of the ocean surf, not more relentless and un
dewing to him than the wrongs of his fellow-man;
there to prevent any white man or white woman In
the missionary labor of love to visit him ; unedu
cated, to put him beyond the pale of education ; to
allow his child never to know tne bepetlt of the com
mon echool. Just released from a Worse than Egyp
thin bondage, to make him a colonist without the im
plements of colonization or fostering care on the part
of the mother country. To any such illogical and
unjust treatment of the negro it need not be said
that the people of biassachneette will never consent.
Our materiell interests, the interests of the Country, op
pose it. For two hundred and fifty years at least
we have been importing the laborer, because we
needed labor in this country. The necessity for la
bor here has caused it to be Imported; even to beem
ployed in the wasteful habits of slavery. Shall we,
now that four millions of strong hands and willing
hearts are made free laborers, trOductive and prod.
table, take them from the ands which they have
tilledl from the homes in which they have been
reared 1 from their hearthstones, as dear to them
as our roof tree is to us, and send them away to
some foreign land, or shut them up in some
corner of this, whore their labor, if not wholly nu
prodnotive and lost, must be unprofitable? Our
settle of justice denies it. They have taken up arms
freely and willingly in our defence, and we have
given them their freedom and rights as oltizene.
What just freedom is it to them to be penned in a
corner, or to be shut Up in a rice swamp and not be
allowed to see the faces of their white follow-citi
zens, except it may be of a soldier sent as their
guard? What true citizenship is it to be deprived
of their equal rights in the land their arms have
helped to rave from the fiery furnace of rebellion,
and to be put upon such portions of It only as are
not thought to be well habitable by their white fel
lovesoldiers 1 What fair division can it be of the
heritage acquired in part by their blood, to give
their white fellowsoldier one hundred. and sixty
acres of land, to be located where he chooses—
"the finest the sun e'er shone upon " — to .. him
and his heirs forever, while to the colored.soldier,

water 1 llnder such inducements, under such pm
pilage; with such restrictions, and ivlth such hopes,
even our hardy Anglo-Saxon fathers, who landed at
Plymouth, would not have thriven. How , mach
lees, then, is the negro, by our wrongs untaught, un
cultivated, and without the habit of selfdepeadence,
fitted thus to take care of himself I The precepts of
our holy religion forbid it. Evers' benevolent Chris

into which no Christian minister or Sabbath-school
teacher, upon their high and holy mtlision, shall pene
trate, if ft is their good fortune to have a white face.
I repeat again : Massachusetts is unalterabLy'opposed
to any proposition of coionizatirm or segregation of
the American citizens, made so by this amendment of
the Constitution. No ! We propose, on the other
hand, simply to let the' negro alone ; that he shall,
in fact, enjoy the right of selecting his place of
label'', the person for whom he will labor, if not for
himself ; to make his own contractor his labor ; to
determine its length and its value ; to allow him at
least the enjoyment of the primordial curse, "By
the sweat of thy fan shalt thou eat bread ;" re
strained only by the laws applying to him and to all
alike ; as the rain falleth upon the just and the un
just...We else accept the fact, that by oar injustice
to him and his race ho Is thrown upon the Govern
ment, °bused to care for himself, unfurnished with
the means of beginning life anew. And we agree
that it is our duty and the duty of the Government
to remedy this injustice, to see to it that he is
taught ; that he Is gradually brought to a state of
self-dependence and independence of others ; that he
shall have a lair Share of the lands that he and his
fathers have wrought upon ; that he shall he left
in the several States where hie labor is needed and
is productive, and that he is furnished at first with
the means of beginning that life which justice,
equal laws, and equal rights have for the first time
opened op to him and his ohildren forever. And
when this is done, we believe our duty is done, and
that thereafter, solar as Government interference
goes, the negro is to be let severely alone. We
believe that he shall work as -every man must
work, or become a vagabond. We believe he must
be taught, as every man must be taught, to be a
good citizen. We believe he must be furnished
with the moans of beginning life, either with educa
tion, habits of self dependence, or with the fruits, of
/ancestral earnings • and when these are given to
him, we have repaired, in part, the wrong we have
done MM. We may then hope to reoelve the par
don of the Almighty for the sins we and our fathers
have committed toward him. Patting in this. our
duty, we may fear still further ohastisement from
His hand who has sustained um as He sustained
our fathers because the bitter cup of perinoation
and chastisement has not yet .been suffered to
pass from our lips. As a nation we have taken
the first step in the right direction. We have
bowed to the first principles of eternal justice.
If we go forward with no halting tread, tatting
no step backward, we may look with hatable
confidence that hereafter our political sky shall
be so healthy and so pure that no thunder-storm
and torrent will be Sent to clear the national atmoi •
phere, and to wash away with blood the sins of the
eople. 'Unless we do justice how can we hope for
justice 1 And, although the poolshment for na
tional wrong and national sin islometimes, in wis
dom, delayed, and wickedness seems for a time to
escape punishment . , yet althougef
Amid Our joyous notes of ;congratulatory tri
umph, may we not also panse,for a single moment
to torn our memories to those pioneers in etie
cause of justioe of whom we dm say, Would they
had lived to have seen thi day? I need not
name them. Their memories, are still green in
our hearts, but the names -of two flash before
us, Parker, the divine whose lips ever defended the
cause of freedom in thislllann the teaoheri a
pioneer of education to an oppressedrace. It shall
not hereafter be said that Massaohusetts is migrate•
ful, for to the latter, at least, we look forward to the
hour when his statue, gracing the front of our Le
glelative halle,shall do honor to him and to our
rionsmonwealth—the two statues overshadowleg
the broad entrance to our capitol, making together
the full oompliment of a Miteastohnsetts statesman-,
one conservative, who wisely expounded the Oon
stitution as it was; the other progressive, who
dared to look forward to the amendment of -a mate
rial defect of that great instrument whose passage
now brings liberty and equality of right to the
world.

Mr. FRRNANDO WOOD,. of New York, after op.
posing the amendment. said: This bill appropriates one
bandrrd and, forty Ave millions of dollars, against
eighty Ave millions last year, and, as against thirteen
threemillions o hundred thouesn d the year immediately
preceding the commeneement, of the war; and to meet
this expenditure It was proposed to take the eighty, five
Millions of Mental revenue collected- up to the Elth of

they might as well know that, so far at he repremmed
the peace sentiment, he would not sustain them it
their position. He was opposed to the war because he
was opposed to the d1109:411t100 or the Solon, and It had

Mr. PIKE, of Maine. opposed the Adinlialty.liwd
amendment, instancing tlee practice In halliard as being
of a corrupt and effete character. He mama , nal that
instead of the Secretary. of the zr*VIY being censured as
be had been by the gentleman from Maryland. ( eft.
Davie.) that officer was entitled to the gratitad_e of the
country for what he bad done in building op RIM giving
each marked entrees to the navy. In the course of le
remarks be spoke of the efficiency of our verisels, and as
to the don hle-enders. they were of such a character as to
destroy a vessel unarmed of the enemy while they could
escape from those which are armed. He totally die..
sewed from the argument of the gentleman that our
navy to not of sufficient strength to cope with the ships
of a foreign foe.
Hr. OfitriWOLD. of New York. also replied to the
gentleman from Maryland, who had. he w eak er •
taken to advertise to the work that we have a and
inefficient naval establishment. and then answered the
01..4 etli ne of lar. Davie to eeveral of the classes of res
eels which had been ander review.
Mr. BLAIN ir,of Maine. said. if the amendment should
be voted down it would be eignilloaut of toe fact that
the House will not advise the navy Department, brit
were contented that its affairs should be coodacted in
the future as in the past, and that an additional ten
millions may be spent for twenty vessel. which pill
not Scat.
Mr. ItIOIL, of Massachusette, denied the truth of that
report,
Mr BLAINE replied 'hat it was a matter of public no
toriety that the vessels would net lost.
Mr PIER, of Maine, said it wag never intended that
there vessels should be sea-going.
Mr. STEVENS remarked that be had been told that
these vesaele would not float until 4124. COO shall be ex
pended on them.
Mr. SLAIN X esid it could not be denied that out of
the ninety steamers overhauled and captured. only
twelve bare been captured by the vessels or the new
navy. The others were eaptuted by purchased vas
sals.

Mr. PI KR and Mr. BLADIR indered iaa brief but
loud eollrquy, mime
Mr. ELIo.RIDYM of Missouri. inquired whether it
was in order for (oral Republicans to (Pierre among
thernardres.
Mr. STAVE fB. Our enemies are so nearly crushed
that we can afford it. ILetrbter. 3
Mr. BLAINE remarked'that the once should esy by
voting fur the amendment that it la not &vilified w ito
the Navy Department. If they followed the lead of the
Duval Committee it would go forth that the Iloara ap
proved of the course of the Department •
The amendment to establish a board of admiralty wan
repued—yeas 43; nays CO3.
The most important amendment made to the bill was
Increasing the appropriation for the completion aid re
pair of vessels of the navy to 4i24.600,0111, thus addlog
titres millions to the amount coaled for by the bill, as
.ztrodeoed.
Mr. DAVIS. of Hazyland. Main offered his amend

GIGANTIC OIL ENTSUPHIAII.—.The Pittsburg
Cliroridcle says: A gigantic enterprise is now on foot
at Titusville, and one which wilt settle many clues.
Hens now in dispute in regard to the oil t meri. A
company of reliable capitalists has been organized
for the slaking of a shaft at same point not yet de ,
termined upon, for the fall and complete develop.
ment of the geolcgleal peeallaritiet andracts of the
oil stratification. The capacity of the proposed sha ft
is to be seven by fifteen feet and it is supposed that
the drippings of the rook, as the shaft progresses,
will nearly, if not quite fully, compensate for the
labor of this great undertaking. This and
will involve a greater degree of mining skill than
any now practiced, as appliances will have to ba
made use of to keep the 'WOI*. free qT Datrolelini gay,
"Ph!!! '!‘.3 hot, come Within the ratigd :".1 ordttlaze
class of ventilators ; and these appliances will have
to be so complete and effectual In their operation,
that no ordinary skill can Invent them. Of course,
alter the shaft has reached a proper depth, to fully
carry out the plan, it will be necessary to run leads
and drifts at angles from the main stem, which will
eventually create courses or successions of caverns,
which will become receptacles of oil, to be raised to
the surface either by means of pumps or by hydrau
lic pressure.

makes a god of his epigastrlnfm, and yet we cannot
help thinking that he who does not show a decent
regard for gustatory enjoyments has had an impor
tant part of his education sadly neglected. There
is a happy medium to be observed on the eating
question that cannot be violated with impunity.
Gentlemen of taste and culture shown practical ap
preciation of this truism by dining st the popular
Saloons of Mr. J. W. Price, southwest corner of
Fourth and Chestnut streets. The spacious addi
tions made by Mr. Price to his dining facilities, from
time to time, and the tasteful improvements he Is
constantly making for the comfort and convenience
of his patrons, display an aptness for the catering
profceslon that can never fall of success. Strangers
from other cities who visit Price's are lavish in their
encomiums upon the sumptuous manner in which he
feeds them, the prompt attention which every guest -
receives, and the order and general attractiveness
that characterise his Saloons. From the fact that'
our city is benefi tied by such substantial and credi
table resorts for temporary sojourners as this,We are
proud of Mr. Price's establishment, and ibel war
ranted in Baying that the large number of gentlemen
who now habitually frequent his saloons evince a
