We would ask of our readers the care

tions, looking to a peaceful and honora
ble adjustment of the difficulties that now
environ us, which havo two passed
the Congress of the Confeditigto States.
that puritan Abolitionists Will still have
the audacity to assert that the 'people of
the South have never offered to accept a
compromise,wit have not the least
doubt; they hare become so habituated
to lying, that to acknowledge the truth,
seems tole beyond their power, and we
would not be euprised, if, within three
weeks, they should deny that any such
resolutions were ever read, even, in the
Federal Congress. But• let. the 'people
read; let them know . that there is a
chance to stop this wicked, unnecessary
war, on terms honorable alike to both
sootione 0/ Abraham Lincoln and the
Alielition party so will it; and for every
day.thatitis prolonged, for every life
sacrificed—for every dollar that is expen

calling the attention of the committee to the
proposition. In the rebel Congress neared to

received by the Committee with some mis
trust ands bide levity., - •
I, too, am opposed to this Bill ef Conscrip

-government, - , .
1 du not believe it—wEl.ltsise- the army
which you need to-put down this rebellion.
I have indicated heretofore umplan for rais
ing troops for this purpose.
And while I have always been reedy in
this House to vote all the the money
and all , the • means -- called far to
meet and overcome the armed resistance
against this Government—while, after force
was arrayed against the Government, I felt
it to be my duty to resist It by all the force
needed 'fol. its suppression—still, sir, as my
revelations and votes demonstrate, have
also been as ready at all times, at every hush
and pause of thin dread conflict at every pe,.
tied of decided summed to our arms, to meet
with favor any tender of conciliation and
pestle calculated to-restore the integrity of
the Union and the isupremsey or the Gover
nment.
Now; Sir, this proposition made in the
Confederate Congress, and debatedby ,them
in secret sessilm, is Made by Judge,,Wriglit
of Georgia, a former Member of this louse
and a firm friend of • Judge Douglas. If
rightly understood and interposed it is a
proposieion of peace and . kindness, of the
old Union, Disguised as it is by much ver
biage, and hidden under the phraseology
which has become common in' the South,
still it means substantially the return Of the
South to the Government when it says, ."•
new GovenunenT founded upon the equality
and sovereignty alb* States." In the salve
proposition it is declared that "If this can.
trot be done"---That is, if recognition of their
Independence and the formation of such a
"new Governmont" sa above cannot be ao
oompliehed, they are tkeuto sot:eider—lOW
Mark how, by seeming to disguise their real
mooning, they really express themselves in
Dim& of thibld basil. In ease they sienna
be recognized as independent, they would
"agree upon trestle; offensive, defensive,
and commercial, ^ 'Eacaning clearly that if
they do not obtain recognition they are rea
dy to accept under the old, Government such
an accommodation of our difficulties as will
drew ne together, iolitionlly and oommer
amity, as against ail the world Could wp
expect more as WO eta attOtiatiOa
for peace, based on Union? To what would
not negotiations begun in this spirit lead ?
Is it nbt :worth the while to make the expert

One of the most extraordinary military
-orders that has been made'public since the
war began is that which General Dana has
issued from his headquarters at Cavallo,
Texas: Accompaning the order is the
amnesty proclamation of President Lincoln

touched the hurt and inspired the tongue
of every lour of liberty on the civilized
earth. Its burden,",he goes on to soy, "is
pardon and liberty.. Thy sins be forgiven
thee." "Let the oppressed go free." With
far more =thugs= for President Lincoln
than of reversnee for Seared subjects, Gen.
end Dana assures the Tuans that "such
parental care of a people has not been ex.
hibited to the world since the patriarchal
days of old, nor since the Saviour of tun
cried to the Multitude, 'come unto me all
ye that are beaviladen and I will give you
rest !" Alter this lofty prelude, the gener

which the pulite!, and the belligerent are
rather incongruously mixed up—proolods
