PROPOSALS FOR FURNISHING MAIL
LOCK& feeT ormen Datsawerserer.{
Apri199.2851. t
Sealed Proposals for furnishing MI Looks and Keys, of
new kinds, to he substituted for the looks and keys now
used on the United States Mails, will be received at
this Department until nine o'clock A. M. the tenth day
of July, 1861.
It being desirable to obtain looks and keys of a new
construction, and invented expressly for the exclusive
rise of the 'United States mails, no model ixprescribed
for bidders, the Department relying for its selection on
the results of mechanical skill and ingenuity which a

The Advocates of Peace.
There can be no peace until it be firmly,
definitely, and finally settled that we have a
Government. This is the issue, and it must,
be met without faltering, without hesitating,
without wavering ; sternly, vigorously met,
and decided now and for all time. No com
promise now ! no holding back the sword, and
extending the olive branch I Is it barbarous 1
is it brutal is it bloodthirsty to speak thus
Gall it such who may, so do not we. It is the
only policy that can save this country and .
this Government from ruin and destruction. l
Nor 18 it with vindictiveness or bitter hatred;
against one single human being that so we:
speak ; but with none the less determination
—with astern, unyielding, unflinching, fixed,
and settled purpose, that the majesty of the
law, the divine right of government, shall be
upheld and maintaided at all hazards,-and at
every sacrifice of blood and treasure that net
cessity requires.
What use to talk of peace and compromise
now ? Peace and compromise were offered;
nay, more than offered—urged upon those now
in rebellions arms against the, Government,
until wet were taunted well-nigh as cravens.
And these otters were made in good faith, with
unparalleled forbearance, in the very face of
acts of the most unblushing treason and plun
der towards the National Government. But
the first gun which, with hostile intent, sent
forth its missile of death against Fort Sumpter,
changed, as with the touch of a magician's
wand, the whole aspect. The deadly hatred
of the South to the North—deep-seated, long
smouldering, concentrated, and envenomed by
its very repression—had burst forth at length
without any guise of concealment. And it
has spread like the blast of the death-ang l e
over the length and breadth of the Southern
States, until its poisonous infection has well
nigh stifled the common feelings of humanity.
Is this mere rhetoric ? Is it the production of
a heated imagination? What say the facts?
One example shill suffice.
We know, through a lady but recently from
the South, that a lady of Charleston, S. C.,
pretending refinement and delicacy, expressed
the barbarous and revolting wish—and Ms
without any personal or peculiar = reason for
hatred 7 —that every fly in Charleston were in
. ,
the hospital at Fortress Monroe, to batten and
feed on the festering sores of the soldiers sick
there with the small pox. Talk of hatred and
cruelty i Why, the wish for the whole North
to have but one neck, that some delicate lady's
arm might exterminate them all by one blow,
even asJUDITII smote off the head of HOLOPOIL;
NES, is mercy and tender compassion in com-
parison.
Gentlemen then may cry, is Peace! Peace I"
but again we say, "There is no peace." What
peace will they have? Will they have a Peace
Congress—a Peace Convention ? That has
been tried without effect. What greater effi
ciency can such a measure have now? What
oath, what treaty, what armistice, what truce:
what solemn obligation, can we rely on now,
after the baseness, the deceit, the utter, disre
gard and violation of the most sacred ties and
bonds from which we have already suffered Bo
much, and whose disastrous effects we still
feel?
Will any alteration or amendment of the•
Constitution of these United States satisfy the
traitors? None! Their rebellion waited not
even an attempt to procuro such amendment
by legitimate and peaceful means. The found
ers of the Constitution, it seems from Mr.
Vice President " SrarnEss, had erroneous
views on slavery. Upon bow many more'
points are these new lights in the science
of government to discover that WASHENOTONt
JEITERION, Mentsos, and HA)III.TON were
mistaken? Mistaken, not in points of detail,
as to the length of terms of office and the like,
but in principle, in deep-lying essentials of a
free republican government. If we yield to
a demand to nationalize slavery and bow
dawn ourselves' to King Cotton, dragging
his enslaved millions in eternal chains, how
long will it be before we shall have another
King, or other Kings, to reign over us ? The
Constitution affords every just gnarautee and
protection to all the rights of life, liberty,
property, and the pursuit of happiness of
each and all the inhabitants of these United
States; whether as citizens thereof or of any
individual State. Shall we be " paprqd " into
its amendment now ? ;fever l NO n letter

cc i " dotted under the threat of coercion.

Life Insurance Companies and the.
Home Guards.
PHILADELPHIA, June 28, 1861.
To THE EDITOR. 07 THE PIUS-air: The
writer of this is one of the Home Guards ; he
is a merchant of this city, and is at present
reduced very much in circumstances, though,
he has never yet failed in meeting his obliga
tions. His business is utterly prostrated at
present, 'and, indeed, if matters continue long
as they are, may be pat to straits to support
himself and family. He has an insurance on
his life in one of our good companies; but un
derstands from that company that, unless be
pays five per cent. annually on the amount in
sured, ho is not to be considered- insured, if
be die in consequence of belonging to the
Home Guards.
New, in drilling in a field drill, he is ex-.
posed to certain dungers—of sun-stroke, dist-.
Ames, cold, &c. i and although he might die
in his bed, still the company might construe
his death as occasioned by, or in consequence
of, his being a member of the Home Guards,
and refuse to pfiy the insurance to those sur
viving. Now, the Home Guards are protect
ing the very assets of the various life insurance
companies, and a payment of five per cent.
per annum is very onerous; and it seems to the
writer that to pay for the privilege of defend
ing the assets of the compeny, besides the
ordinary premium and efpeno of uniform,
&c., is very unjust. The very hour that we
need the benefit to Do derived from our pro
vision in our days of prosperity is rendered
hopeless, and the moans we have employed
to enrich these companies aro now useless to
our families.
Do you think a refusal on the part of these
companies would be sustained, (except in
case of actual conflict with the enemy ?)
On the 4th proximo we will ,shew what a
force we are willing to use for defence of tbe
city, and think that the directors of liberal
lite insurance companies, as spectators, must
1
blush ler the provision in their policies.

'Buolt, then, are the practical measures trhich the

its power ?" It would be equally - fair to ask a
phyitiolan what he would do, if milled in for the
first tithe, to a person nine days gone with a ma.
lignantTevei, set on fire by poisoned liquors. If
he could not arrest the tury of the disease in such
a case, would It tell against his professional skill
and . ability ? That fa a parallel' to the Wise of the
friends'of peace in the present crisis... It would,
indeed, be diffioult for them to prescribe a rigirus of
conduct when the pulse of the nation is at the rate
of 150 a minute with the excitement of the conflict.
Bat, in the normarconditioe of the public mind, or
even so late as four or • live years ago, it would
have been easy for a friend of peace to suggest a
practioaimeasure which -would have intercepted
and prevented this terrible oriels.
It is patent to the world that slavery is the only
cause cf the present conflict. All other sources of
differences have paled to its extinction before this
,fearful antagonism. It is the steady growth of fifty
yeiiiiis› Nothing Wise squall or.-resembles-it. No
thing else Is even next . or second to it, in its capa
city of alienation. The prejudice attaching to race,
color, language, or religion, is a slow and even re
pugnance; no stronger one year than another.
Bat the conflict between freedom and slavery is
not only "irrepressible," but geometrically pro
gressive in its intensity. li'or half a century, emi
nent men, both North and South, both anti-slavery
and pro-slavery in sentiment,thave bad a fore
boding.tbat the system, some time or other, must
involve the nation in a fearful 'catastrophe ; that a
servile insurreotion would desolate the South, and
bring immeasurable disaster td the whole Union,
or that the two great sections of the oonntry'would
drift into civil war before -the quick head currents
of swelling antagoniam. The experience of the
last ten -years, ending with 1860, clearly proved
that nothing but some praotiaal plan for the utter
extinction of slavery could save the nation from
the worst of these apprehended calamities'
In view of these feote of the past, and aspects of
the future, some of the friends of pease, a propma
moat, and on their individual responsibility, la
bored for several years to bring before the Govern
ment and people of this country the proposition to
provide away for the gradual and ultimate extinc
tion of -slavery which' should be Safe, jest, and.
equitable to the Smith, and magnanimous and bro.
tberiy on the part of the North, and which, by its,
spirit and working, should unite the two sections '
by bonds of sympathy and interest wbioh never'
before existed between them. The plan developed
and presented at public meetings, in most of the
considerable towns and villages( in the Free States,
may be described in these simple words: " %than
ever any State in which slavery exists shall abolish
the, system by its own free will 'and act, it shall
reoeive, out of the national treasury, a fair and
honorable compensation for the emancipation of its
slaves.".
it was tinged that this overture would be the
strongest. and most satisfactory guarantee Oen
grass could give the South that ato sovereignty
over the 'system! of slavery, within its own borders,
would never be overridden nor undermined by
any Congressionel Majority the North might ever
attain; that even if It should be able,• at some
future day, to array fifty flee against fifteen
slave States, the standing proposition would
limit the anti-slavery action of each a majority
to the offer and -carrying out of compensated
emancipation. Nothing could have been more
timely, just; generous, and graceful than this offer •
on the accession of the Republican party to power.,)
I think it may truthfully be said, that there was
considerable ambiguity or misapprehension, both "
North and South, in reference to the anti slavery
aniserua and lotion of that party, on assuming the •
helm of.the Federal Government.• For more than a
quarter of a century it had been a widely-extended
opinion in both sections, that unites slavery Could
have a continuous emission of new territory:lit
would die out ; that if it should be eontintid td its'
present area, two converging Conditions would
terminate in its deetrnotion. In the first place,
the lands tilled by slaves would become 'exhansted
and worthless; in the second, the elaves'would in
crease on those exhausted lands until their labor
would'not feed them, and their masters would be
obliged to emancipate and send them off, or to
run away themselves, leaving the negroes to atilt
for themselves on the lands-the had ihiportrished
by :their unrequited ' Now,•• then, when •
great'politioal Party . their the field'under the ban
ner of non•ealension, it received the heartiest
eupport of nearly every man . in the free States
who had prayed and labored for the abolition of
slavery. It WI made all clear to his mind that
the restriction of slavery to 'its present area,
by exhaustion of the Boit, -and—increase of the
slaves, would soon become compression, compres
sion plethora, -and plethora. death. This result
was as Olear and inevitable as reason could make
it. 11,e believed it folly; so did every pro-sla
very man in the Smith; 'One had just as much
reason to fear it as the other to ho eat. Neither
the hope of the one nor the fear of the other bad
any reason to be a whit diminished by the solemn
and energetic declaration 'of the leaders of the Re
publican party, that wben in power, it would not
lay its little finger upon' the system of slavery
within the States in whioh,lt existed. Those as•
sevemtiona were understood in the same sense by
all the really anti-slavery men of the North and
the pro-slavery men of the South. To both par
ties, they meant what the good Quaker expressed
when he thrust the head 'of a highwayman, who
bad assaulted him, into a stream by the roadside
"Friend, I will not kill thee, but I will hold thy
head under this water until the breath departeth
thy body." To thousands, and tens of thousands,
North and South, restriction ogolpreseion, end
plethora, were drowning it of 'hanging
slavery. The issue to be feared by one party and
hoped by the other was the same, What was in•
volved in that issue to the Southern States ? Why,
two tremendous disasters combined in ono over
whelming flood of ruin. All their lands to be ex •
banned and worthless ; all the pecuniary value of
their slaves to be annihilated, and oat of both uni
versal bankruptcy, anarchy, and flight of whites,
'or blacks, or both.
Now, I repeat, it would have been equally just
to the great anti-slavery and praelavery commu
nities of the country if the Republican or non-
Extensionist party, at the commencement of the
lent Presidential election, or at its accession to
power, had made the Overture to the Southern
States of oompentotted emancipation. For it would
have been offering them a safe and generous al•
ternative, by which they might escape the great
calamity they so honestly and justly apprehended
from the triumph of the restrictive policy. Then
it would have fully satisfied all the really anti
slavery oonstitnente of the Republieen party, be
cause the offer proposed would atm directly at the
ultimate and utter extinction of a system which
they had labored so long to abolish. For one, I
sin confident, and many, both North and South,
are, doubtless, of the same opinion, that such an
offer, at the time suggested, would have operated
as an effeotivo preventive a the present oondition
of affairs.
Thus, in rep ly to, those, who ask almost taunt
ingly 'of the friends of,peace, Whit would you have
done, if called in to prescribe some remedy for the
great and terrible evil impending over the coon
try I would venture to suggest tbe pearly mea
sure so partially described. In doing this, I would
not commit tbe Peace Society, nor any other mem
ber of that association, even to an indirect respon
sibility for the proposition, or to Say sympathy
with the foregoing view. and sentiments. Having
labored a good many years in the cause of peace,
and having had, for a longer period, the fall assu•
ranee of belief that this great nation must be rent
some day or other, by an internecine war. that
never had a parallel in history, unless slivery
should'his'abollshed by the joint and generous act
of both sections, I have labored long to solicit the
aerviees and practical attention ,of the , public
mind to the foregoing plan for extinguish

The Loss of the - Steamer Canadian.
The fallowing, being c portion of the protest of
the officers of the steamer Canadian; who re
cently reached St. John, contains the narrative of
the loss of that vessel:
They experienoed favorable weather, .without
anyy thing of note occurring until early on the night
of. Monday, the 3d, at whieti time they were abreast
Point AMour, at the west end of the Straits of
Belle Isle, when the weather set in thick and hazy,
with wind blowing light from southwest, and at
same time they mot a considerable quantity of foe,
wbioh Induced them to heave the ship to, and so
continued for the night. At daylight proceeded
through the Straits, passing numerous icebergs and
quantttlesef field ioe, but sufficiently open to allow
of their steering without much difficulty. At this
time the. weather was becoming very think, with
wind blOwing a strong gale from southwest, at
tended' with rain. At about half past eight
o'olook A. M. were abreast the south end of Belle
Isle; at about ten A M. mane up with heavy
field ice; when the engines were immediately I
stopped; but about a quarter of an hour after
ward were amt.on at 'Blow half-speed, with the
chip's bead turned 1:4;4 toward the Straits in or
der to wait fur a change of Weather abip going
at from four to five knots an hour. That at about
11 35, while taming between two pieces of Ice, the
ship struck below water under the fore-rigging,
the place lying on her port bow, but apparently
with snob a slight effect as not to give any uneasi
ness to the commander, who was on the bridge at
'the time; or hie officers; that a minute or so after
ward one of the firemen game In great haste to the
commander and stated that water was running in
underneath his (the fireman's) room, and the•le
cord officer was at once despatched to ascertain
the cause, but had acaraely left when the first inn..
&tenger was followed by, a second, a seaman, who
stated. that water was running into the steerage,
upon which the commander left the bridge, and
on going forward found the lower hold full of
water, and steerage fast filling from below, after
which he went into the forecastle and found the
fore-compartment dry. That from the great quart
tity of water which had, in Mich a very short
time, entered the ship, it became evident, that
no means could be applied to keep the vessel
from sinking ; and without a moment's delay pre
parations were made for the safety of the passen
gers, by having the boats in readiness to lower,
and at the same time full speed was set on, with
' the .hip's head direoted toward Cape Bauld, the
nearest land in sight, distant about eight miles, in
the hope—which, unfortunately, was not realized
—that it could be reached before the water had
entered 'so much as to compel them to take to the
boats. A few minutes tater this, Borne vessels
(which afterward proved to be French fishing
oraft) were 'seen dodging under 'the land, where •
upon signals of distress were made and guns fired;
but, apparently, without being observed until
some time had intervened,during which interval
the water gained rapidly, for in less than a quar
ter of an hour after striking the foe the 'steerage
was full, and forward octal bunker fast getting so ; ,
and, although the doors which communicated
through the bulkhead, between the bunker and
stookhold, had been closed and ataunahioned off,
the water notwithstanding rushed through the
openings BO fast 113 to compel the firemen in a
short time to leave the forward stockhold, and soon
alter the water had se far increased as to enter the
engine-room through the stockhold hatchway,
from - width mums , the -thip rapidly sunk by the
heed, and heeled over very mush to starboard.
That when matters had reached this stage, which,
of course, destroyed all hope of reaching land with
their ship, the engines were stopped, and as
soon as the ship's way through the water was
gone, the boats, filled with people, were
:lowered . - but in the not of so doing, boat No. 8,
under charge of Quartermasters Ewart and Fran
cis, capsized under the quarter, and all on board,
supposed to be about twenty, untortunately pe
rished. That when the boats bad all been lowered,
and apparently every one else had left the ship,
the commander swung off the bridge into boat No
' push off when the ship
I '
went down in about forty fathoms of water, and
struck the bottom with moth force that the main
and foremast were knocked out That from the
manner in which the vessel mink—almost perpen
dlaularly—the stern was the last part of the keel
seen, and lust before disappearing, the poop deck
was force off by the pressure of confined air: and
almost altuultaneously several persona were ob
served floating in the water, many of whom quickly
disappeared, and were not again 'seen ; the mail
master, Mr. Paxton, and second °Meer, Mr Davis,
being among the number, the former having re
mained behind, using the most strenuous exer
tions to save the mails, in whioh he partially
succeeded, until too late for the boat, and the
latter, who, after entering a boat, had, unfortu
natetY, returned for a moment to the ship. That
moment or so after. the dimtppearanoe of the
wreck, the boilers exploded, and produced such a
violent eruption of the ' water that everything
floating within its range disappeared, but, luckily,
all the boatel were at that time lleyoud , its reach.
The vessels before referred to had .by this time
arrived on the spot, and .wore instrumental in
saving some four or five persons who had remained
clinging to floating portions of the Wreck,' after
which all hands promseded — on - bbard; and were
soon landed-at Quirpon Harbor; a swill fishing
station on the northeast extremity of the island,
but in which, on that date, there were only two
families residing, the French vessels hiving only
a day or so before arrived on the coast. .That,
without delay, arrangomenta.were-enured into
with Captain Maori, of the French bark J:edes, for
bringing forward the shipwrecked passengers and
crew to this port, for which' service, exclu
sive of tbe cost of provisions, ho was -to re
oeive' four -hundred pounds sterling, and on the
morning of Friday, the 7th, with . the exemption of
those hereinafter named', all left for this port ; a
part of the cargo of the bark having in the interim
of three days been discharged for the purpose of
making roam: : That before leaVing Quirpon,' the
fleet and - fourth °Mara, with five men, were die
patthed In one of the boats to Fortean, on the Lab
rador Shore, for the purpose of intercepting some of
the steamers; passing through the straits, and by
them to convey to Eogland'OT Canada intelligence
of the disaster. That on the morning of Friday,
the 14th of this month, after experiencing a great
deal of privation and suffering on the voyage from
Quirpon, owing to the limited accommodation and
inferior diet afforded by the French bark, they
succeeded in making this port, and without delay
intelligence MB telegraphed to Montreal; but, as
none of the ship's papers were saved, it is impos
sible to . .state 'with correctness the names of the
persons unfortunately lost, but the number there
of, passengers and crew combined, is Supposed to
, be about 30.
