J tHE BEAVER ARGOS. Iff-k? February Bth, 1865; •k-%6 - ■ ~ TSli© Constitutional Amendment. HI The passing of tho" Cdnstiiultional Amendment, abolishing slavery, by |ho lower house of Cdngross.lastjweek, jras unexpected. It was believed the requisite two-thirds vote could" not be obtained, and'" the Amendment jwould have to lid over until the next.session of Congress. Lb unlocked fop, pas page by more than the required j ber of Votes, sent a thrill of joy to ev ery patriotic heart,and the North was ©wept as by a'whirlwind of rejoicing. Fourteen Penidcratk, amohgwhom | were Coffrcth and McCalhster, of Pa., [voted for it. They have ‘ barred [ for themselves a proud ' and noble plaqe inthe history of this country, that will reflect credit on them: and tbieir posterity forever; while those who against | tho amendment have placed their names on a roll of infamy, lasting as time. It requires two-thirds of tho States to ratify the 1 'I amendment before it is engrafted into land bkcomoa a parti of thle Cobstitus tionof the country. It is thought a sufficient number of States will be obtained without difficulty. The time r t hey are to ratify is not limited ji'ri the : Constitution,,‘and it may be in one, five or ten years. Congress bus dis charged its duty, it. now remains for < the. States tq,complete the good work.

Then we i shall have, neither slavery ncir invql uiuary Vcrvitudo, except,, for crime,' i throughout the length and breadth of tile land. -Then shall tho President [ ‘'proclaim Liberty through|mtaU tho j 1 lanti to.all tho. inhabitants , thereof.”; ;[ The blighting", cursing, destroying sin ' 4»f slavery will bo wrpeld away ‘ and I tho nation released from a burden that j.i i was dragging it to nun, shall [riao’pu |i 1 rifled into newness of life, and attain j; ! unrivalled power and splendor. It is.a -time to rejoice, and wo 1 love to hear : tho roar of tho cannon mingled with, ' the shouts of the people pver the land, proclaiming the glad tidings. Awa kened by the visitations of the Al 1. - mighty to a: sense of the National wrongs, honest patriots sought f and v 'liavo effected -the removal!, of this curse. Wo,bl,ess : God in the fullness of our hearts lhpt while ho chastised ho did not destroy .and that wo in ay now [; '/ expect national blessings • and pros-, -rr pority from Iris-bountiful hand; N°>’- I er, since tho day the old State House j, ■ hell rang out the glorious npwqof Lib erty and Independence,bas ; any event of equal importance happened to the country. The'passing of thjs amend inept by Congress was the greatest victory of tho war. and will bo fol lowed by the grandest results.

Recent dispatches give 'the sabatance of the jntoiview, and it appears no ternts yte re proposed bj the rebel coinmissionors that could ieven bo entertained by oar Govern ment. They insisted upon recogni tion as the only basis. of 'Compromise, while President Lincoln insisted upon I • 1 * r i! submission, and upon their doing that, p romised liberal terms in settling and removing all jdifficoUies. the conference adjourned; and , the war must go on. Wo expected no. better 1 results at present, yet wc believe gdod will/ollow from the effort, The South’ will uow know wo. are disposed' to .Compromise, io yield something lor the sake of peace; that we are' ndt bent on subjugation and extermina tion, as they were taught to. believe, The peace party of the South,already strong, will grow stronger, while fjar peace party must grow weaker.

Negoti ations were ppnding but the war went op. Victories inlho field paved ibo wgjf to negotiation,and victories must epiP^yill insure submission. Davis and all the leading rebels know ; that establish their independence is soinal - and. political death to thorn, and wpilo there is a prospect of suc ceeding they never will submit. , The war must go on until the masses of the Smith demand peace. . The ers have tos much at stake ; now to submit. The negotiations have closed and we rrjust have, war until a peace is conqucrcdi| Both sides arc'prepar ing for renewed activity.
