Tlio Peace Qucatloa.
Hon. Francis P. Uiair, sr., has rc.urDcd
from liia pelf-appointed peace minion to
ltichmontl, and the result ot his labors
may bo summed up in few words. He
has succeeded in accomplishing absolutely
uothiog. Jefferson Davis assured Li.n
lliat no peace was attainable except upon
tho basis of the recognition of the Con
federacy, which is an ultimatum our gov
ernment can never consent to. Ve em
barked in this war with the deliberate
purpose and determination of preserving
the Union inviolate, and to even suggest
any other possible consummation than
this, particularly at the present time, when
the rebellion U acknowledgedly on its last
legs, were to insult the patriotism and in
telligence of the American people. The
tvar must go on Jefferson Davis bath
decreed it.
It is to be hoped, says tho Fittsburg
Commercial, that, whoever were the origi
nators of the Dissolving Views of Peace,
wherein Mr. Blair figures so conspicuous
ly, they are by this time satisfied as to the
character of tho speculation. It is hardly
to be supposed that Mr. Lincoln belonged
to the set, but that he yielded to their
persuasions so far as to allow them to try
their hands at what has ended, as his
judgment assured him it would end, in
complete failure. It turns out that Davis
13 no more disposed now to accept the only
terms on which the North will end the
war, that is, unqualified submission, than
at any former period. At least such is his
attitude, and it i3 by that, not by the sur
roundings, that he must be judged.
Mr. Blair is preparing a statement, or
report, of the result of his labor, the
points of which are understood to be: First,
that Davis demands the recognition of the
Confederacy : whereas, Mr. Lincoln re
quires submission. Second, that if Davis
appoints Commissioners of peace, a cessa
tion of hostilities for ninety days must
take place : whereas, this cessation, altho'
the Commissioners might not, as they
probably would not, get withiu a thousand
miles of peace, would .be of immense ad
vantage to the rcbel, at least postpone the
end just so long, and score up a u-.eless
bill of ezpeuse for us from fifty to one
hundred millions.
Here the Peace Views dissolve, we
trust never to take shape again, except in
the permanent reality which wo believe
to bo rapidly approaching.
Considering how the South have fought,
and the resources they have displayed, it
may be as well not as yet to conclude that
they are incapable of prolonging the war.
It ought to be remembered that the lead
ers have every motive for prolonging the
last stage, for protracting the final epoch,
wherein their personal fortunes are so di
rectly involved. In considering their
ubility to do this, it ought not to be forgot
ten that they have absolute power ; that
though dissatisfaction exists on every side,
and the Southern people generally have
lust cocCdcnce, the leaders have upwards
or a hundred and fifty thousand men in
erms j that llichmond is defended by an
intrenched army that may be reinforced
by nearly the entire force ot the Confeder
acy not already there; that while there is
ro reasonable doubt that this force will be
finally overcome, there is little or no pros
pect if immediate surrender. States may
ceate to co-operate, and the great body cf
the Southern people may practically cease
to war against the Government, yet the
r.iiii:ary power of the rebellion, represent
ed by ih army, must be broken and
tlesirojcJ, before the leaders will give up,
and peaco be restored.
It is this view of the case that enables
i to comprehend how near wc are to the
doe cf ti e war. It is full of encourage
ment, for it throws the government on its
jwn resources as tho sole means and
pr.eedlo-t method whereby peace can be
i.'btaiued. Wc come back, therefore, to
the point that the war will cease when it
is fought through to the end, and uot an
hour before. U fvr 'iy reason it was best
another view should have a trial, the fail
ure of it only the moru firmly establishes
this conclusion.
The leaders of our armies are the only
Peace Commksioners to depend on. It
is to them only we can look with confi
dence. In iit judgment, we have lately
been too much disposed to cultivate an
acquaintance with llichmond, to strain
after reports from the rebel capital, to de
lude ourselves with false hopes in conse
quence cf them as though there could
bo some other road to peace besides that
opened by our armies. If all this has
como to an end, and if the North settles
back solely on its own resource?, the
trial illustrated by the Blair mission and
failure may prove to be not without its
good results.
Tlio licr Unity.
- The National House of Hepresentatives,
by a very decided vote, has reduced the
tax on printing paper from 20 per cent, ad
valorem to 3 per cent. This is a just meas
ure. By keeping up the present duty,
the Government is virtually placing a tax
on knowledge, which the people have to
pay in the shape of increased prices for
the newspaper they must have, the books
and magazines they read, the schoolbooks
their children use, and in the numberless
other ways which will commend them
selves to a thinking mind. Under the
existing state of affairs, foreign paper is
completely cut out of the market, and our
domestic manufacturers have us at their
mercy. They have formed a gigantic mo
nopoly, with the object ot extorting mon
ey out of our necessities. The result of
their combinations is seen in the extrava
gant price to which paper has advanced
of late a price which is based on nothing
so much as overreaching cupidity. The
sooner this monopoly is broken up, and
the embargo on literature and knowledge
thereby removed, and the sooner tho pub
lishing interest is rescued from the hands
of our paper-manufacturing Shyloeks, the
better for tho interests of tho nation.
When the agitation of this question was
begun, the papers of the ountry almost
without exception advocated the repeal of
the duty. Latterly, however, the New
York journals have veered around to the
other side, and, in long dissertations" on
political economy, are now endeavoring to
prove that the duty is eminently just and
proper, and should remain as it is. The
secret of their sudden conversion to that
way of thinking i3 to be found in the fact
that they have )ccw loujlit for a price by
tho paper monopolists, which price con
sists in a reduction of paper rates to them,
and to tJiem only, from 27 to 20 ceat3 per
pound. The New York papers see in the
accomplishment . of this underhanded
scheme the realization of their long wish
ed for hopes of crushing out the country
press, and hence oppose the repeal of the
duty.
The Senate has not yet taken the mat
ter into consideration. When it comes to
act upon it, we hope it will so act aa to
subserve the interests of the people, and
not those of greedy, grasping speculators
and monopolists.
We have received the ''Tribune A.lma
nae" for 18G5. Besides a comprehensive
Astronomical Department, it contains a
Political Department covering fifty-one
pages, wherein is condensed a vast fund
of valuable political information. No one

52?" As an instance of how easily spies
from the enemy come and go through our
lines, a Washington correspondent cites
the following, which recently came to his
knowledge: No less a spy than "ex-Judge
C. S. Terry, the murderer of Broderick,
and now a General in thu rebel service, has
passed through our midst, and is now in
Canada. He first visited Washington,
then passed on to Baltimore, where he
doubtless received the kind attentions of
the secessionists of that city. Passing
northward, he ruminated in Philadelphia
and New York, and finally made a sale
visit" to Canada, where he was seen by a
Government detective net over a month
a-'O.
Egi.Thc Pope's late fulmination, in the
i r k iit ..: 1 - -
fciiape or an rucyenvm j-zoner, is ..uucmu
ed all over Europe, not only by the Prot
eatuuts, but also by the more liberal
members of tho Roman Catholic Church.
The journals ot Germany show that the
impression . produced by the Encyclical
Letter in those countries has been the
j same as in France. All agree in regarding
it as u manifesto hurled against modern
civilization.
C31.It has been observed that every
seventeen vcars the Ohio river rises to a
great flood. The last two floods were in
lbuli and 181S. Another period of sev
enteen years terminates this year. As an
immeu.se breadth of country is now covered
with snow, it is not at all improbable that
one of these gnat periodical floods will
visit us during next month.
CAn English paper announces Lee
is to be Jeff. Davis' successor.
The Anti-Davis Feellngr in the
South.
Sinco the Southern papers have found
courage to speak out against Jeff. Davis,
they have grown bolder and bolder, and if
the press is any indication of public feel
ing, there is a terrible storm gathering
about the head of that Southern autocrat.
The Charlottavillc (Va.) Chronicle says
that "if Davis and the Court were only
going to dash their brains ou we might
rally from the calamity j but they are
dragging the whole secession fleet after
them:" and denounces Davis ic round
terms ior all the calamities that have come
upon the Confederacy. The Charleston
Mercury is furious. It says :
"Patent follies and their disastrous con
sequences have brought despondency upon
the people, and license has thinned the
ranks of the defenders of the country.
"Instead of aiming at radical changes
in the causes of the effects under which
we suffer and arc endangered, men are
found who propose the mad remedy of
driving cut quiet negro producers into the
war, and forcing them to fight. They are
to understand that the Yankees are getting
the upper hand of us, and their time of
immunity from war is over; they are to
choose between fighting with us, the
weaker party, or with the stronger party,
our enemy. They are to fight for slavery
(or for individual freedom) on our side, or
on the side of the enemy, for total and
general emancipation of their families, race
and people, allured by all the fancies and
luxuries of nothing to do. Independence
of law, independence of principle, indepen
dence of our institutions tho proposition
appears to us as desperate in its absurdity
as it is reckless of everything else. Can
Congress find no remedy for the incompe
tency and mismanagement which is riding
us down to ruin V
In another article the Mercury says that
there are about 100,000 effective men ab
sentees from the rebel army, and who are
absent because they have lost faith in Jeff.
Davis. It adds :
"It is the incorrigible, intermeddling,
mischievous dictation, malignant prejudi
ces, and petty partizanship, which makes
sacrifices apparently endless and useless.
It is these things which weigh like a pall
upon the heart of the country. It is these
things which infuse inefficiency everywhere
and inspire selfishness and indifference. It
is these things which are destroying U3,
and which must be eradicated by the
action of Congress."
In the following sketch it presents a sad
picture of the Confederacy:
"The path we now are treading leads
straight to destruction. The crisis of the
Confederacy has arrived in fatal earnest.
The result ot the next six .months will
bring the Confederacy to the ground, or
will reinstate its power. Without reform
we are doomed.' There is more than one
department of government in which reform
is important.. , Bac reform in our armies
is essential, is vital. Without it the
death-knell of the Confederacy is already
tolled. We want no 'more Jeff. Davis
foolery ; we want one atom of brains, one
spark of nerve; we want no more of I3u
hamism ; we want no mermaids with heads
of monkeys, and fishy attachments at the
nether extremities we want men, real
men, earnest men North Carolina, Geor
gia and South Carolina are in no mood for
trifling. They have had enough of this
sort of thing. They don't intend to have
much more.
"A most onerous but imperative duty
devolves upon the commander of this de
partment, whoever he is. This duty this
first and most essential duty is to cashier
and shoot. Without it nothing -can be
done, and Sherman conquers us With it,
he is a coward who succumbs at heart.
Everything is at stake everything that
is in the way must be faced, and trampled
upon. The man who commands here must
put his heart in his pocket, and his sword
in his hand. He must know nothing but
the good of the Confederacy That he
must do, regardless of official weakness.
The end must be radical reform. It is
folly to talk of red tape now we want the
tiling we must have it reform, shooting,
cashiering, order, subordination, soldiers
not runaways, ragamuffins, ruffians. We
want, and we must have, brains and pluck
in commanders, and implicit obedience and
order in subordinates and soldiers. Six
paces and a steady aim will do the busi
ness, if repeated sufficiently often, especial
ly among the commissioned officers.
"If, however, commanding officers will
not do their duty in this matter, let all
men shut their books, for the end will
have well nigh come. The time is short,
will it be improved ?"

A New Counterfeit Greenback.
A counterfeit United States Treasury note,
of the denomination ot five dollars, has
been lately "shoved" on the public, which,
although very coarsely executed, may
deceive many persons as it is a very
common practice to take anything in the
shape of a greenback, without waiting to
scrutinize it closely. The counterfeit, as
we have stated is very poorly excuted, the
engravings being quite coarse and rough
in appearance. The "Goddess of Liber
ty," on the left hand end of the note, and
the ground-work around the figure "5" on
the upper right hand corner, are very
poorly engraved, and present a dim and
mixed appearance. Tho green on the
back i3 of an indifiefent shade, and unlike
the genuine. The engraving is shorter
thau that of 'the genuine, by about a
quarter of an inch. Good judges of mon
ey will have no difficulty in detecting this
fraud at first sight, but many unsuspecting
persons may bo deceived by it. The
fraud is a dangerous one, and tho public
Ehould be on tho look out for it.
Volunteers Wanted !
Authority having been granted the
Governor of Pennsylvania to recruit fifty
new companies, to count on the draft, the
following proclamation has been issued
with regard to the subject. With only
twelve days intervening between the date
of the proclamation and the time when
the new troops must be mustered into the
service, unequalled celerity is certainly
required to make good any . expectations
that these fifty companies will really be
forthcoming at the appointed time : -

Evacuation of Richmond. In one
of his reports, Admiral Porter says: "We
picked up a telegram from General Lee
paying that if Forts Fisher and Caswell
were not held, he would have to evacuate
llichmond." The3e forts, together with
all the fortifications in the neighborhood
of Wilmington, are in our hands, and the
telegram of Lee discloses the vast impor
tancp of the captures. It i3 not impossible
that those who argue that the unsuccessful
raid by the rebel gunboats down the James
was but to cover an important back-door
movement by Lee, (who planned it,) may
be right. Concerning this, however, Grant
is doubtless well informed, and a corres
ponding movement by him would be heard
of. It is well known that the Lieutenant
General does not wish to have Lee leave
llichmond, but that he should remain to
be taken with the rebel capital, when, in
the fullness of time, Sherman and the
the other co-operating Generals shall have
swept the other points, and united their
forces with Grant. Although Hichmond
may not be evacuated, Lee, no doubt, by
this time feels the power of Grant's plans
contracting around him.

The recent cowardly and unrighteous
attack on Maj. Gen. Butler, by one of the
Representatives in Congress, from New
York, Brooks of the New York Express,
has ended as every honorable and sensible
man in the land anticipated it would, in
the complete discomfiture of the assailant,
his slanders recoiling on his own head,
and the very means he sought to ruin
Gen. Butler, becoming instrumental in
the hero's vindication. The old story
about the seizure of gold in New Orleans,
by Gen. Butler, rankles in the heart of
every traitor, North and South. It was
hoped by the traitors, that that seizure
would embroil the country in a war with
Europe that it could be turned to good
account against the Government, but the
result having proven so entirely different
from what such traitors as Brooks and
his associates in and out of Conp-ress
anticipated, they have now combined in a
common crusade of slander, to overwhelm
Gen. Butler with disgrace by stigmatizing
him as a gold robber. The debate in
Congress established the fact that Gen.
Butler had regularly and scrupulously
accounted for every dollar in money and
property he had seized while Military
Governor of Louisiana that the Secretary
of Wrar had approved his entire action
and that his accounts with that Depart
ment and the Treasury, were audited and
settled, the Government having never
lost a penny by the action or the adminis
tration of Gen. Butler. Yet in the face
of these facts, Brooks persisted in re-iterating
his charges, so that Gen. Butler has
demanded an investigation at the bar of
the House, where his foul-mouthed traitor
assailauts will have an opportunity io
prove their charges or expose their hate
in the disgrace of their failure. These
repeated assaults from Democratic legisla
tors and journalises, on Benjamin F. But
ler, constitute really the best standard of
copperhead sympathy for treason we have
in the land. As a copperhead hates and
vituperates Butler, so in proportion he
loves and lauds treason and traitors, as
Butler is only antagonized because he is
to-day tho most strenuous opponent cf
treason in the country.
Gen. Grant and Philadelphia. A
committee of citizens of Philadelphia
have formally, by letter presented to
Lieut. Gen. Grant the title deeds of a
magnificeut dwelling, No. 2,000, Chestnut
.street, which i3 no.v being furnished.
Gn. Graut in reply to the committee,
George II. Stewart, James Graham and
others, says :
"Through you the loyal citizens of
Philadelphia have seen fit to present me
with a house, lot and furniture in your
beautilul city. The letter notifviug me
of this is just received. It is with feel
ings of gratitude and pride that I accept
this substantial testimonial of the esteem
of your loyal.citizens. Gratitude, because
it is evidence of a deep set determiuation
on the part of a largo number of citizens
that this war shall go on until the Union
i3 restored. Pride, that nij humble efforts
in so great a cause should attract such a
token from a city of strangers to me. I
will not predict a day when wo will havo
peace again, with a Union restored. But
that that day will come is as sure as the
rising of to-morrow s sun. I have never
doubted this in the darkest days of this
dark and terrible rebellion, until this
happy day of peace does come my family
will occupy your magnificent present. But
until that I do not expect nor desire to see
much of the enjoyments of a home fire
side." Important Legislation. A bill is
now pending before our Legislature which
is calculated to restrain evasions of a
pending draft.
It declares that all persons who may
leave their homes or enrollment districts
for the purpose of avoiding military ser
vice, or who may conceal themselves or
refuse to report after having been notified
of their being drafted, shall be deprived
of their citizenship within the Common
wealth, and "shall be incapable of inher
iting any estates under the intestate laws
of the Commonwealth, or by contract
acquiring, possessing, or disposing of any
real or personal estate withiu the same.
Any offieer of election knowingly receiv
ing the vote of any person so escaping
military service shall be liable to indict
ment for misdemeanor, and on conviction
shall be fined in a sum not less than one
hundred dollars, and be imprisoned for a
term not less than one month. Any per
son advising, assisting, harboring, or in
any manner aidiug in the escape or con
cealment of the persons described and
