PEACE PEOPOSITIONS.
They are Indignantly Eejected by the Eeb
el Leaders.
The following extracts from the Rich
mond Enquirer of January 26th, will give
our readers some idea of the feeling existing
arnong'the Rebel leaders, in reference to the
establishment of peace.
"The second mission of Hon. F. P. Blair
to Richmond is ended by the return of that
gentleman to Washington yesterday morn
ing. That nothing has been accomplished
provided we will not dissolve the Union ;
any guarantee for slavery, any constitutional
provision for its protection and extension,
full compensation in greenbacks for all ne
groes that have been carried off during the
war, anything, everything that wo can ask
or think will bfi freely granted if we only
consent to remain with them.
"These may not have been exactly Mr.
blair s terms, but they embrace the sub
stance of his mission, and do not in the least
exaggerate the extremity in which the ene
my find themselves, and shows what they
are willing to concede us if we will onl
return to the Union, but these terms cannot
purchase our liberty. We are not fightin
for slavery, neither its extension or protec
tion. We are willing to give up slavery for
our liberty. We intend to be independent
and free, or to be exterminated. The ene
-my might as well abandon the effort to
bribe us with protection for slavery and cut
off our liberty.
H o admit that there are few recreant
wretches in these States that would sell their
liberty for their negroes, but they arc few
and utterly contemptible. Resolutions may
be introduced into the Virginia Legislature
looking to reconstruction," but they will be
rejected with a unanimity which will forever
damn the wretched traitor that has sought
to bring shame and disgrace on the fair name
ofthc'State. It would be almost mortify
ing to see any such resolution introduced,
and we do earnestly hope that good sense
may prevent their being offered.
'"The second mission of Mr. Blair is the
best evidence we can receive that our peo
ple have only to be true to themselves, and
we shall soon rejoice in the enjoyment of our
liberty and independence. There is a com
promise that yet may open the way to peace.
It. has been suggested that the United
States will acknowledge our independence,
provided a treaty of commerce and league
defensive and offensive for the application of
the Monroe doctrine to all the States of
North America, can be agreed upon. When
that proposition is made, it will be time e
npugh to discuss it. It is not improbable
that it may become a living, tangible propo
sition before many months."
A man named Hezekiah Payne has been
arrested ia Detroit, on suspicion of being one
of the St. Albans raiders. On searching
him sixty-five dollars, in bills of the St. Al
bans banks, were found sewed up in the li
ning of his overcoat.
The Philadelphia Councils have increased
the city bounty to volunteers under the last
call to $400 for one year, $450 for two years,
n4 $400 for three years.
Kansas is declared out of the draft She
has raised her full quota under all the calls.
THE 'WAS IN CLEAEFIELD,' AGAIK. I
If there is one characteristic more promi
nent than another in the editorial course of
Copperhead journals, it is an unscrupulous
dishonesty in concealing the truth from their
readers and palminsrupon them a repetition
of glaring falsehoods, to sour their tempers
and mislead their judgments. They seem
to be conscious of no loftier sentiment in
this day of the Nation's trial, than to spend
what little of brains and influence they pos
sess to bolster up the miserable faction whose
only vengeance for a great national defeat
consists in maintaining a local supremacy to
annoy and perplex the Government. As a
specimen of this kind of journalism, we re-
'er the reader to the reply made by the last
Republican to our article reviewing the
causes of the "War in Clearfield." In that
article the Republican can see no other ob
ject than an effort to destroy confidence in
the integrity of " certain distinguished lead
ers," who have led their followers into the
army and into prison. He has no other
response, than to sound the alarm through
the ranks of his party that the vote is in
danger of being reduced 1 It is said "com
ing events cast their shadows before;"
and they see plainly enough that a dark
shade is fast settling upon the prospects of
the political firm of Bigler, Wallace & Co.
They have too much faith in the intelligence
of hundreds of their own party, not to ap
prehend that they will trace effects to the
legitimate cause, and then abandon with
disgust a class of men who have trifled with
their confidence and plunged them into dif
ficulty, to promote their own aggrandize
ment: Now we submit, whether a cause
that has sunk so low as only to admit of
plain misrepresentation, and a studied sup
pression of the truth, does not merit the
pity and contempt of every honorable and
patriotic man ?
They repeat the accusation that Republi
cans are responsible for the troops coming
here ; while every citizen of the borough of
Clearfield knows that every proposition
made by the Republicans to fill the quota,
previous to the draft, was rudely repulsed by
the Democrats that those propositions were
only acceded to after the draft was made,
and when it wa3 known that the Republi
cans had entered a sufficient number of sub
stitutes to relieve the men of their own
party. Everybody knows that had the legal
claims of the government been met, as they
should have been and as they icould hace
been, but for the controlling influence of cer
tain leaders no soldiers would have been
sent among us. Yet that paper has the au
dacity to assert that these same Republicans,
the editor think that the people are fools
enough to believe such stuff as this ? Who
are the men that have been selling revolvers
throughout the county for the last six months?
W ore they Republicans? Who were the
men that imported arms and ammunition on
the pretense of shooting deer? Were they
republicans ( Who were the men that
have been holding secret oath-bound meet-
mas ciuuuestiueiy in miu-lolts, spring
houses, etc., swearing to vote the Demo
cratic ticket and to rescue each other if'they
were arrested by the Marshals? Were they
Republicans ?
In our article we charged that the meet
ing, held on the 13th of August last, had
demoralized the followers of the "distin
guisLed leaders who managed it. - It
gave
a quietus to all measures, so far as that
party was concerned, for the support of the
government either in men or money. Big
ler told them that he would not give "anoth
er man or dollar. " They took his advice,
given in this significant way, and thus invi
ted a conflict with the lawful authorities.
His object was to make votes by keeping
them at home till after the election. He
succeeded, but at a fearful expense to those
whom he thus deluded. Of the ex-Governor's
speech the writer in the Republican
takes no notice in his reply. He knows it
to be indefensible and therefore thinks it
best to let it be forgotten as soon as possible.
But te may rely upon it that when. every
other speech of the ex-Governor's will be
long forgotten in the county, that of the
13th of August will be fresh in the memory
of the people. -
We charged again that the leaders had
begun the war on the Government by de
claring that it had forfeited their "obe
dience." This is also carefully ignored in
the reply. Those "brave resolves" are un
pleasant things to talk about, whilst the
bugles of the "veterans" are sounding
through the county. And yet he incau
tiously re-affirms the doctrine of those res
olutions at the close of his article. He savs
the people "resolved as they had a right to
"resolve." Resolved what? .To disoUu
the constituted authorities ! If this is what
the "distinguished leaders" claim aright to
do, it proves conclusively that we were cor
rect in holding them responsible for our
present troubles. It proves, moreover, that
the same evil animus that originated the
movement in this county to trammel the
government.still lurks in the bosoms of these
leaders, and only awaits an opportunity to
express itself .in some other form.
We cannot understand what the Republi
can means by complaining that no supple
mentary draft has been made m this county.
Ia hit paper, a week before the article in
question appeared he published a list
of the wpplemeniary draft. We can only
account for this mistake by supposing that I
this fact was not known at IlarrLsburg at
the time his article was written. We sup
pose, however, that they would have pre
ferred to have seen a supplementary draft
made for the deficiency of over four hun
dred that- existed before the troops came.
Fortunately, since their arrival, the defi
ciency has been reduced one half, and it was
only necessary to make the supplementary
draft fr two hundred. Yet, says the Re
publican, there was no necessity for troops
being sent to Clearfield ! T
The Cession of Mexican States.
We were not inclined at first to give cre
dence to the report that the Mexican States
of Sonora, Sinaloa. Chihuahua, Durango
and Lower California had been ceded by
Maximilian to Louis Nenoleon. The idea
seemed not only romantic, but absolutely
monstrous, that this man who .had taken a
solemn oath to defend the integrity of the
Mexican empire, should already be giving
away its most metalliferous provinces to
France. We could readily credit the story
that Dr. William L. Gwin had been created
a Duke, but when this statement was coup
led with the assertion that he had been
made Viceroy over certain surrendered States
for the benefit of Louis Napoleon, we hesita
ted before we accepted the intelligence as
true, although a remembrance of the mode
by which Napoleon obtained Savoy from
the King of Italy made the story not alto
gether improbable. It begins to be tolera
bly evident now that Louis Nepolcon designs
to occupy permanently as French colonies,
these Mexican States. They are. nominally
ceded as a security for a debt, but all Mexi
co was seized under a similar pretense, and
lo ! to-day she is created into a monarchy
for the bcncSt of a r arty to whom nothing
was due. There is a cool insolence and out
range about this whole transaction which is
m'operly appreciated by our people, and
which even rebel papers have considered so
glaring as to warrant a termination of the
rebellion, a reunion with the North, and a
concerted movement for the purpose of ex
pelling Maximilian and cutting up by the
roots this French-Austrian scheme of douii
nntinr nnr continent. It is as clear a3 the
noonday sun that our people bide patiently
the time when they shall be sufficiently dis
entangled from the civil war. which now en
grosses them, to give bold and decisive war
ning to these foreign gentleman to pack up
their trunks and set sail again for Europe
Ih'ttsbnry Chronicle.
Rebel Vessels Try to'Ettn By Our Batteries
A dispatch dated Headquarters Army of
the J ames.
' run past our
of the storm an
of eight vessels of war, and three torpedo
boats. This fleet consisted of the Virginia
r redericksburg, and Richmond, iron-clads
mounting four guns each: the wooden ves
sels, Drury, Nansemond and Hampton, of
two guns each ; the Bedford, one gun, the
steamer Torpedo, and three torpedo boats.
The following are the particulars as far as
they could be obtained from a deserter from
the expedition, who came into our lines about
daylight this morning: The fleet left its
moorings about six last evening, and pro
ceeded quietly until it got near our batteries,
when they were discovered, and immediate
ly the batteries opened upor them, to which
they replied. At about twelve o'clock they
cucceeded in cutting the chains abreast of
our obstructions, beyond the lower end of
Dutch Gap Canal, when the Fredericksburg,
under full head of steam, passed through
the obstructions, completely destroying one
of the sunken canal boats. The Richmond,
Virginia and Drury, in attempting to follow,
grounded, when the Fredericksburg had
to go to their assistance.
The Drury could not be got off and was
obliged to be abandoned, as it was now day
light and they were in range of battery Par
sons. As soon as it became light the bat
tery opened on the Drury, one of the shells
falling in her magazine which exploded,
completely demolishing her, and the remain
der of the fleet again made their way back
up the river. It was supposed that an at
tempt would be made to go through again
to-night, though what their destination
may be can merely be surmised. The only
damage done was the dismounting of one
gun on Fort Brady. Deserters report only
one man killed and two wounded by the ex
plosion of the Drury, and four deserters
swam ashore and came into our lines.
Eehel Desertions Increasing.
The Boston Journal learns from an officer
recently from the Army of the Potomac,
where he is in a position to know the facts,
that the reports of rebel desertions are well
founded. An average of forty deserters per
day come within the lines of the Fifth corps
alone. From one Virginia regiment a hun
dred deserters have come in, and the deser-
tionsbecame so numerous that it was necessa
ry to remove the regiment from the front.
Early m the campaign deserters were main
ly conscripts and those who had been forced
into the army. Now they are generally the
veterans of the rebel army men who have
been long in the service, and who have be
came tired of the war and satisfied that it is
useless to prolong it. The homes of a laree
number of those deserters are with;
lines, and they are glad to take the oath of
allegiance and come again under the protec
tion ol the old flag.

ALL THE. REBEL POETS AND SMITH
VILLE OCCUPIED BY OUR TROOPS.
We take the following extracts from Com
modore Porter's despatch to the Secretary
of the Navy, announcing the occupation of
all the rebel fortifications on Cape Fear riv
er by Union troops. Com. Porter says :
"In my last, I informed you that Fort
Caswell had been blown up and evacuated
in consequence of the fall of Fort Fisher. I
sent Lieutenant W. B. Cushing around in
the Monticello to the western bar to ascer
tain what had taken place, and to obtain the
aid of the officers in command of the Nyaek
and Vicksburg, and take advantage of the
occasion. Lieutenant Cushing did not ob
tain the aid he required, for what reason I
have not yet learned ; but with his usual en
ergy he pushed in his boats and found that
fort Caswell had been blown up. Bald Head
fort destroyed, Fort Shaw .also, and Fort
Campbell, to the westward of Fort Caswell,
had'been abandoned. All the forte n: ount
ed nine and ten inch guns and Armstrong
1 50 pounders. Lt. Cushing then pushed
into Smithville, after hoisting the flag of
the Union over Caswell. The next thing I
saw was the flag waving over Smithville,
which the rebels had left in a great hurry
after they saw our boats approaching, leav
ing everything in the heavy and beautiful
fcrt uninjured, and two 9-inch guns only
spiked in the fort at Deep Water Point.
"In the mean time I had succeeded in
getting one gunboat, th e Tacony, over the
rip upjto Reeve's Point, to disable the guus
at that place, about three miles on the west
side of the river, above Fort Fisher. Thus
twenty-four hours after the fall of Fisher
and its outworlcs, all the formidable chain
of forts on this river and at the entrance,
built to keep out anything we had, have fal
len into our hands. I can scarcely give a
description of these works ; they are certain
ly the most formidable and best built earth
works I ever saw, and do credit to the engi
neer who planed them. One would sup
pose that the whole Southern confederacy
had been at'work throwing upjnud and sand,
and Gen. Whiting, the engineer, had an a
biding faith in the durability of the confede
racy, as he shows his opinion by his works,
which have been four years building, and
been taken in as many days.
"I find that immense q uantities of provis
ions, stores and clothing have come through
this port into rebeldom. I am almost a
fraid to mention the amount but Aero was
enaugh to supply over 60,05o men. It is all

hopes that they will attempt to retake it.
Une thousand men m Fort Fisher, with
the guns of the squadron, would hold this
place a long time.
We find this. a better place to catch

Whether right or wrong we don't know,

liermuda, loaded with arms, blankets, shoes,
etc., came in and quietly anchored near the

The Stag was commanded by Richard II.

ber more were expected, and we will, I hope
catch a portion of them. I entrusted this
duty to Lieut. Cushing,' who performed it
with his usual-good pluck and intelligence.
These two are very fast vessels and valuable
prizes. They threw a portion of their pa
pers overboard immediately on finding they
were trapped. The Charlotte brings five
English passengers, one of them an English
army officer. They all came over, as they
expressed it, on a lark, and were making
themselves quite jolly in the cabin over
their champaigue, having felicitated them
selves on their safe arrival. The Stag re
ceived three bhots in her as she run by our
blockaders outside."
A Narrow Escape. The Berlin journals
relate the following incident which has just
taken place in Prussia: "A pointsman was
at the junction of two lines of r;lilm:ifl lila
fever in hand, for a train was signaled. The
engine was within a few seconds of reaching
the embankment, when the man on turniug
his head, preceived his little boy playing on
the rails of the line the train was to pass
over. 'Lie down !' he .shouted out to the
child, but as to himself, he remained at his
post The train passed along on its way,
and the lives of a hundred passengers were
perhaps saved: But the poor child! The
father rushed forward expecting to take only
a corpse, but what was hisioy on finding the
boy had at once obeyed his order he had
laid down, and the whole train passed over
him without injury. The next day the
King sent for the man, and attached to his
breast the medal for civil courage.

toady? One love3 little bugs and the other
big bugs.

from the very things for which we anger and
