First, the Pre sident could not have stood justified to his countrymen and to the world if he had re fused to meet these . commissioners. • And second, having now met them, and listened: to' their demands, he can go before his countrymen of both sections, and before all the nations, upon theincord of the' case. We have .only to go back to the lnitialUnd recent efforts of Mn. GREELEY ) Mr. WBED, Mr. IPLIMP:MID, and others equally eminent, tovee how essential the ripest wisdom is to the adjustment of our national' and inter national complication& These gentleinen, through their three great newspapers, how 'ever opposed on personal issuei,'were too, conscious Of their relations to the American.. people and their responsibility to their Go vernment, ;to , hesitate at any occasion to secure an honorable peace. As they did not fear to act on this. high motive, could the President be Indifferent to the public opinion they aided to cultivate ? They, are neither .brave nor Sagacious statesmen who, in a crisis so terrible and so. unparalleled as this, can stand upon personal ideas, and refuse to move from narrow pedestals. Ours is the period for large thought and sublime magnanimity. Hence, when ABRAIUM aseorst and Wm. H. SEWARD proceeded to meet the , Southern commis sioners, we honored them for their manli ness and their liberality. Although they did not fulfil the lull expectations of the friends of the Union, they nevertheless achieved a substantial victory. Messrs. STEPHENS, Humn, or-Justice CAMPBELL, &c., have before this laid their case before the Southern people:; and these people have heard, or must soon hear, that their leaders would consent to nothing but the recogni tion of the rebellion. We are, of course,, unable and unauthorized to say how much Mr. LENCOI.2I was willing to concede. Suf fice it, the only condition to honorable peace seems to have been declined by the rebel commissioners—that condition being the restoration of -the Federal Union and obedience to all' the laws of Congress. Could a better .picture be laid before the deluded and despairing Southern people ? Could they see the fiendishness of their despots and the eager magnanimity of President Lnicovx in a brighter .mirror ? We assert that there is not a man or a woman "in the South who has ever really believed that ihe people of the free States would agree to make peace on the basis of a separation of the American Republic. What, - then, must they, the fighting Southern men and the starving ' Southern men and women, think of lead ers who refuse to compose our great trou bles unless Mr. Llncorin .agrees to sunder ROBERT J. Hall:Plirga. and surrender the American Union ? The first effect of this decision will be to unite the North and to divide the South. We ob serve that on Saturday, Mr. FARNANDO WOOD, of New York, the' very head and front of the Peace party, said in the Houge, after hearing that the rebels ha insisted on recognition as a - preliminary to a close of the war " Rumor said the negotiation has failed. It was to be regretted. But.ll it failed In consequence of the indisposition of the rebel authorities to return to allegiance and dtitren the basis of the oommon Constitution, they might as well know, ao far as he represented the peace sentiment, that he would not sus. tain them in their position. He was opposed to the war, because he was opposed to dims :du:ion; and it bad been one of his complaints against the Admin. 'stratiOn, that so far from making overtures it had prevented propositions of peace by denying the ad- mittanee of commissioners from the Southern Go vernment. But If the door had now been thrown Open by the President, and if the answer to that WWI that they would accept recognition and separation, and nothing else, then he desired to say, with his humble efforts, he should aid the conquering armies of his country to obtain by force what it has been unable to obtain by peace." We take these words as they are spoken, and believe in them. The Democrats of the free States, whether of the War or the Peace party, however they have felt (as, indeed, some of the Republicans them selves have felt) on the subject of separa tion at the first of this great revolt, are now for fighting this fight to the end, whether that end be bitter or sweet. They now be lieve that the only plvation for the nation is in reunion. In fact, Mr. LINCOLN'S frank acceptance ofthe offers to negotiate for peace has disarmed all party animosities in the free States ; and when it is made entire ly_clear that th only impediment to peace was "a demand for recognition," videlicet, separation and disunion . , on the part of the rebel envoy, the masses of the loyal States will unites one man, and struggle to the last for tEe Government of our common fathers. We do not envy A. H. STEPHENS, R. N. T. HUNTER, and ex-Justice CAMP BELL, when they go back to Richmond with their report to JEFFERSON DAVIS. They de- J. P. COATS. clined what ABRAHAM Lxicoorat was will .ing to accede—not for their people, but from their own personal pride. We will not call them selfish, for we are disposed to consider, their chief as the most conscientious, because the most reluctant of seceders STEPHENS flattered DOUGLAS to stand firm against the intolerance of the Calhounites. Here was the old-line Union Whig coaxing the most loyal Democrat of his age to fight slavery ; and yet he deserted DouGLAs. We will not say basely, but without a de cent apology. HUNTER left the Senate in. a tremor of terror and of tears ; and CAME . - BELL resigned his velvet position in the Supreme Court at a late and somewhat craven hour. And yet these are the men put forward by JEFFERSON DAVIS to stand forth to oppose the restoration of the Ame rican Union before the President of the -United States It was announced that when these same commissioners passed through the rebel lines, on their way ,to Fortress Monroe, they were loudly cheered, and we know they were kindly welcomed by the heroes of the Republic. Shall we ask why ? Because both sides regarded them as mis sionaries ready to show their devotion to `the old Flag and to the old Government, and to accept every proposal of forgive ness from the people of the North, their army, their Government, and their Pre sident. How will they be received when they return ? The eflect of Mr. Lraccam's visit to the front, and the refusal to accede to the ex acting demand of the rebel commmis &loners, will be wholesome. First. It will show that the President of the United States of America,' the sove reign head of the greittest Government on earth, voluntarily treated with the mis guided foes of our country. Second. It will show that he wasready to yield everything for the restoration of the old Union but the abolition of slavery, now constitutionally secured. On this ground we can have a united North, irrespective of former opinion or of party.

M.—The Hampton Roads conference, as It will be known in history, was held between Stephens, Hunter, and Campbell on one side, and President Lincoln and Secretary Seward on the other, with a plenipotentiary from Africa, friendly to both parties and serifleable to each, who came and went with things on a salver. The conference opened, as we intimated oa Tours day that it would open, with reminiscence; or tho old Washington life and inquiries lifter common friends and acquaintances. Stephens was worn; and had a 1.50 k of anxiety and weariness. This Justly should be imputed to the disease which un ceasingly saps and wastes the vitality of the ablest anti bravest of Americans. Hunter was in fine con dition, and lofty and confident as of yore. Camp bell, too, was his old self. All were marked with strength, assurance of the future, and oonsoiousness of power. There was in no one of them a trace of !suppliance ; not cne was in look, word, or carriage a suitor for peace. -- The, salver of the plenipotentiary from Africa bridged the passage ova) , topics of kindly and plea sant talk to a significant 'lnquiry of Stephens how nearly the extension of the Capitol was completed, and the expression of a desire to go to Washington to see. Mr. Seward told him of the condition of the work, and invited him to come and look-at the Capi tol of a reunited Republic. The terms of peace were thus gradually approached.. When fully reached on the rebel side, Stephens took the parole and sur passed all his old exhibitions of persuasiveness, shrewdnees, force, tact, and courage In putting the demands and the rights of the Confederacy. In the midst of them; and at the conclusion of one of his points, Mr,. Lincoln swung forward on the lower hinge of Ids back and interrupted : 6, That reminds me of a story of a man out in Illinois i" Stephens,. Hunter, and Campbell instantly jumped up in a roar of merriment. The interruption caused by this oharaoteristio outbreak, and the apt story-which followed being through with, the rebel Vice President resumed, and pursued to the end his statement of the rights of the Confederate States and the terms on which he thought they would be willing hi stop the war. Recognition was the first of them. The proposition for an armistice was, of course, a logical eminence. It is very certain that Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Seward were surprised at striking this snag in the very outset of the conference, . " The preliminary groping and feeling around by Our pioneer of pease, and his assurances and convictions, had led to the belief that the three envoys had entered our lines to talk of arestored Union and a common country. They had stayed for about two • days at the army headquarters" in conversation& there with Generals - Grant, Meade, and one or two other generals. Stephens professed to love the old Union, to be as flinches ever in nis feelings an A.me rican of the 'United States, and deplored the neces sity which politics placed him and all the leaders of the rebellion in to have something to give to the decimated and impoverished people of the South for their sacrifices. It is understood that they declared at headquarters that If we would recognize them for only a week, or any suitable length of time, to satisfy the pride of their people, they would plep.ge their honor to bring about reunion. Whatever was the precise character of their ad. missions or Intimations, our peace prospectors went to Fortress Monroe on what they felp was a sure thing. Of the whole character of the whole interview the country can judge from what Mr. Lincoln said to a general °Meer on Saturday: " We could not do any thing with them whatever." They stood on-recognition. Mr. Seward considered their claims argumentatively. He kindly and courteously spoke of our larger resources, and of our certainty of victory in the end. They insisted on -recognition. The utter inadmissibility of this demand, and of their other and consequential de mends, was demonstrated. They were immovable— the" stood for recognition.' _ Mr. Stephens, more flexible and point', than his associates, proposed and argued his crafty scheme or a temp orary recognition, repeating at length the considerations he bad aired at Grant's headquar- ters ; but on recognition, absolute or temporary, the three 00M101861011011 stood like rooks. The conference had to be broken off, but it was not without results. As seen from Washington, it accomplished three things : First. The demonstra . Don of the truth that this war,which is God's me chanism for wiping slavery and slaveholdizik aristo cracy out of the United States, has got to be fought through to the end. Secondly. The demonstration of the truth that therebele will not permit a restora tion of the Union. Thirdly. The adhesion of the Peace Democrats to the Government, forthwith, and a union of all parties In the vigorous prosecu tion of the war to put down the rebellion. Fernand° Wood took the war path on Saturday; Oox and other Democrats - will take It to-morrow. Fourthly. The bracing up of the war all over immediately ; the reorganisatien to some extent of the adoption' of economy ; the correction of abuses ; the stoppage of waste; the stiffening of discipline.; In all things a radical preparationtor the renewal of a contest nowhere near Its end. , "All's well that ends well," is the spirit of the change of feeling'in Congress which so greatly dis trusted and reprobated the peace expedition. It is thought that Mr. Lincoln will send In a message to-morrow, giving first-rate reasons for his confe rence with the enemy's envoys, stating its result, and telling the country that the only possible chance or a peace with the rebels le to whip it out of them, and that the sooner we make up end go at the job the cheaper and better it.will be for us. Mr. Blair Sr., In a conversation with a New York representative today, admitted that the rebels he conferred with in Richmond, cheated him in their professions of a willingness to send comrahisioners to arrange for the return of the South to the Union. • MACE.

I 'deem the interview I have had the pleasure to have With General.

That General Lee impreßeed him at once with the idea•that he was in the presence of a man whose soul yetis' filled with every sentiment of honor, re ligion, and patriotism. The subject of the war was barely alluded 'to, ,and in connection with which the old man with great earnestness and feeling re marked that he, did not wish to .leave so cruel a legacy as the war to - his children, and while hie affections for his old comrades and friends had not abated In any degree, lee had but a plain duty under the providence or God to perform, and would be glad to be spared such a necessity by a permanent peace; not only , between the sections, but with all mankind.

It is pretty well un dersttad over Washington, in all circles, that Geri. SingletOn has at least succeeded in bringing abbot the present conference between the two sections.' Mr._ Blair dhad failed in his mission, but such is underafood to have been the earnest appeale of the General to the authorities and people of Richmond to make the, effort fbr peace, and his assurance of the peaceful disposition of President Lincoln, andlds readiness to receive and respectfully con sider any propositions looking to, such a result, 'finally indttoed them to send the commission now in session. A word it 'Sommeet—now that the dove , hair come, with an olive branch from the nettle, the generous ' the always magnanimous South, and now that it has been accepted by our wise President, may peace, flow from it—a peace that will piece the Southern people before the world, under a due aoknowledgMent, as with us equally ennobled; from the unexampled spirit, heroism, and determination they have displayed. President Lin. oolziand Governor Seward have now the important responsibility of peace of Continued war in their hands. May they nee that power under a realizing sense of that responsibility, and the united prayers of the people, North and South, that God will soon restore peace, with returning national prosperity. WM. Comma, .TRIVSTT. WasnminTox, Feb. 4,1886: 17=1VMMTIrrnMT7MMUM,IM7M The folloiring letter, uponlhe amendment to the C6nstitution extinguishing slavery, has been written by Dr. Francis Ideber to Hon. E R. Morgan, United States Senator from New 'York : Six : 'As the election, on the Bth of November last, hae added one of the highest national acts to the history of our time, so the amendment of the Constitution which yesterday passed the Hones of Representatives will be the greatest effect of the present rebellion, if, as we all hope, threelourths of the State Legislatures give their assent. The same year,l7BB, saw the framing of OUT Con stitution and th.e, first cultivation of the cotton plant in Geergia; and in course of time this textile plant 'gave renewed vitality and expansion to Idavery,, fettering in our great polity, until the gangrene broke - out in the deep woe of a wide and bitter . civil war. The year 1866 will cure our sr, tern of this poisonous malady. Seventy-seven years is along Period ; the reckless rebellion has brought grief to all; and anguish to many hearts ; but if the effect of the fevered period be the throwing off of the malignant virus the nation will stand purified, and the dire incobalatenoy. which has existed so long between our bill of rights of the Fourth of July and our fostering protection- Of extending bondage will at last pass sway. The sacrifices which we have made will not have been too great. The amendment which is now offered to the Ame• rican people runs thus : Neither slaver!, nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime, whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to theirjurisdiction.” These are simple and straight forward words, al lowing of no equivocation, ye t, considered in eon. neotion with some passages in e Constitution, they require some remarks, which I address to you, elr, as one of the United States Senators front New T_erk, and ae my neighbour in this city. TheiimenamenVextinguishesidaverylt the whole dominion of the United States. The Constitution as it now stands (Article 1, Section 2, paragraph 3), however, directs that Representatives "shall be ail. portioned among the several States which may be included within , the Union, according to their re spective numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole number of free persons, inclad ing those bound to service for a term of years t and, excluding Indians not taxed, three-fifths of all other persons." If, the,,, "all other persons"—that Is, slaves—are declared free, and the foregoing provision of the Con stitution is not amended, we simply add two-fifths to the basis of apportionment of Representatives lathe Southern States; in other words, the number of Representatives in Congress from the States in which slavery has existed will be increased by the present amendment. As, however, these States, and especially those in which the colored citizens exceed in number the whites, will not give the common suf frage to the citizens of African extraction, (as, in deed, many of the Northern States—for instance Pennsylvania—do not give it, and as other States give the right of voting to colored people on the con dition of possessing freeholds only,) the result of the amendment as now proposed, without an additional amendment, would bean increased number of South ern Representatives in Congress of the same num ber of white citizens. In this case the rebellion, though ultimately subdued at the cost of torrents of our blood and streams of our wealth, would be re• warded with an enlarged representation. No loyal ottizen can wish for such a consummation. How is the difficulty to be avoided I Let ne first remember the following three points : I. In the practice of every State of the Union those citizens vote for electors of the President of the United States who have a right to vote for Re prosentatlyes in Congress. Immediately after the adoption of the Constitution of the United States, the Legislatures of several States sleeted the elec tors; but a more national spirit soon prevailed, and In all the different States of the Union the people elected the electors, except in South Carolina, There the Legislature retained the election of elec tors down to the breaking out of the rebellion, on the avowed ground that thus the State obtained a greater influence, this election of electors in South Carolina always taking place after the eleetion by the people Imo been consummated In all the other States. 2. In every State those citizens who have a right to vote for the most numerous branch of the State Legislature have also the right to vote for members of Congress. S. In every State of the Union it 18 the State itself which determines, by its own Constitution, who shall have the right to vote for members of the State Legislature. These considerations, then, would lead to the sug gestion, that the apportionment of members of Con gress ought to be made according to the nambera of citizens who in each State have tho Fight to vote for the State Legislature, or for Its most numerous branch. This suggestion may be embodied in an amend ment additional to the one. ust passed, in such words as these: . - . "Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to the respective numbers of citi zens having the qualifications requisite for electing members of the mast numerous branch of , the re spective State Legislatures. The actual enumera tion of said citizens shall be regularly made by the census of the United States, but a special census shall take place before the next now apportionment of Representatives shall be made by the Congress of the United States." You will observe that the words used in this pro ffosition of an amendment have been taken, as far as it was possible, from the Constitution itself--arti ele 1, section 2, paragraphs 1. and 3. Believing, as I do, that this subject deeerveB the attention of the American people, I have not hesi tated to make use of your permission: to address to you this public letter, and have the honor to be, Sir, your very ebedient, FitA.woiB Raw YORK, Feb. 1,1885.
