Even the most barren papers bring something new. Chil dren read or hear the contents, gain intelli gence of the affairs ol'the world, and acquire useful knowledge of more importance to them in life than a present of fifty acres in land. Parents are not aware of the vast importanee ot' a newspaper in a family of children. We have the remark before us, and we repeat it, take two families equally smart and both go to the same school—let one of them have the free use ofa newspa per‘and it would excite astonishment to mark the diflerence between them. Full one half, and an important halfot‘education. as it respects the business of the world and' the ability to‘rise and make one’s selfres pectnble in it. is derived from newspapers. What parent would not wish his children respectable? Who would be willing to have his neighbor’s children more intelligent than his own? Yet how trifling the sum a p‘nper costs? It is even in these hard times absolutely contemptible in amount, and no man ever felt it, except in its beneficial consequences,who paid the subscription reg ularly once a year. A Tuuching Incidznt.—Mr. John Seymour's . part contains many thrilling incidents.— | We extract the following which trampirevl on the battlefield “Gettysburg: A rebel prisoner Asked a clean shirt for his comrade whose fre‘sh. but blood-stpint-d bandages, told ofa recent amputation jug share the knee. Oné of the Sanitary Commission gave the shirt, but. said the boy must first he wawlml. ‘Who will do that." ‘Oh, any of those wo men yonder.’ Akind leaking worfinn from Philadelphia was asked ifshe was willing to wash «rebel iii-isoner. ‘Certainly.’ was the pmmpt reply. ‘l have a son in the Union army, and I would like to have somebody to wash him.’ With bowel and water in a tin basin she cheerfully walked through the mud to the tent. Careful not to disturb thenmputntod leg. she gently removed the old shirt. and "grgun to wash‘him; but the tenderness of mother'l heart was at work, end she be gan lo bry over him, saying that. she imagin ed she was washing her ow‘n ion. This was more than he could bear. Ile,ton. began to weep. and ask God to bless her for her kind ness to him. The scene was too much {or the bystanders, and they left the northern mother and thesouthern ton to their snared grief, wishing that, tears could blot. our. the sin of this rebellion and the blood of this unnatumk war. ' LANCASTER,PA An Aficting Inciderd.—Two ofiieers, woun ded in the battle of the 30th. at Petérshurg, were gomg home last Friday by the Erie mute. When the train neared Oswego A well dressed lady, accompanied by a. child and a. gentleman, entered the car and look aseat in from of them. As the officers talked over the recent engagement at Pe tersburg. informing each. other of various acquaintances who had fallen. one remark ‘ed: .“Tbete was Ueptnin Wnrwick, of.t.he 'lo9th New York, as brave a-fellow as ever lived; he was shot through the head and instantly killed.” The lady relerred to immediately sprang lrom her seat, and, throwing up her hands. exclaimed: “Oh, don’t say that; he was my husband,” and then burst into an agony of tears. This was the first intelligence she had received of her husband’s death. Thachild with her was his :daughter and the gentleman hi brolher.~ There were very few dry eyes in that. car during the rest. of the journey to Elmira. fix“. Glasgow, Scotland, Rev. Henry Ward Beecher had the following put to him by a. canny Scott: ‘ ‘ “Are you fighting for the Constitution with the fugitive slave clause in it? Ifso how doyou pretend to be fighting for liber ty? Secondly, if you are fighting for eman cipation. are you not, fighting against the Constitution, and how do you condemn the seceding South? In reply, he said that was a trap for a. Scotchman to set him. worthy of his ingenuity, but be (Mr. Beecher) was not going to set his foot in it. And he avoided any reply by trying to prove that the Constitution recognized slavery as a {not but not osa doctrine.” of course the /cloar headed Scotchman laughed at the shallowness and impudence of this strolling mountebank. No wonder they pronounced him a noisy shallow brain. How Past W'ars for Coercion and Unily have Re:ulled.—-Holland aeceded from Spain.— The latter tried coercion and Mled.

' To this note Mr.‘ Greeley replien.

In a lone. ‘ and final. letter to MrV Greeley, dated filxl. irL<t..‘ they complain t‘hnt “it prm'nkt‘s as much indignation a: surprise.” and ';is un like any paper which ovx-r before emanated .from the constitutional Executive ofa free I peorvlc." They on on to Eay that— . “It precludesFiegotiaticm. and prescribes in advance thejneruis and conditiom of peace. It returh's tn the nriuinal policy of ‘nq bargaining. no neéntintinnu, no truoes with rebels, except to bury their dent], un-. til every man shall have laid down. his arms, submitted to the governmenthaud sued for mercy.’ ” ** * * * "It is enough for us to say that we have no use whatever for the paper'that has been placed in our hands. We could not trammit it to the President of the Confederate States without offering him an Indignity.’dishon oring ourselves. and incurring the well mer ite team of our countrymen.” * *: 4‘ :IWhilst an ardent desire for pence per va es the people of the Confederate States. we rejoice to believe that there are few, if, any, among them who would purchase it at the expense of liberty. honor and self~res pect. If it‘ can be secured only by their submission to terms of conquest, the gene ration is yet unborn which will witness its restitution. If there be any military nutc-i crat in the North who is entitled to proffer the conditions of this manifesto, there is none in the South authorized to entertain them. Those who control our armies are the servants of.the people, not their mae ters; and they have no more inclination than they have right to subvert the social institutions of the sovereign States. to over throw their established couitituttomraud to barter away their precious heritage ot‘. self-government.” , , Here‘the conference ended, and the par ties separated, each going his own way. PROPOSITIGNB FOB PEACE the Chicago Post saysz7By our telegrni phic despatches this morning the reader ‘ will learn that the rumors of the past two i or three days of the presence at Niagara Falls of distinguished agents of the Confed- ‘ erate Government. empowered to open ne gotiations with Washington for peace. are not without foundation in fact. They have actually asked for safe conduct to Wash ington. in order that they may obtain com munication with their own Government, and act under its instructions. And how have they been met? Why. they have been met by the declazntion by the Presi dent; that ifthey come authorized to accept abolition as one of the conditions of the re turn of theaeceded States to the Union, they shall have safe conduct to Washing tonl This is the miasive with which they are met at the threehhold ! This. they are told, is the only road to any negotiations whatever for peace! They will not be per mitted to come to Wnshmgton unless the! bring with them the negro, freed. enfmn chised, elevated to brotherhoodl Not a word from them will be listened to, save upon prior assurance that their first words Will be that their State: WI“ accept as valid the Lincoln decree of emancipation! It is only the negro that stands in the way of peace. It is for the mgro that the war is to be continued indefinitely. For the negrs hundreds of thousands more or white men’l lives must be sacrificed. hundreds of millions more of. white men'S‘ treasure spent, and the exiatence of this white man’s Government destroyed.

Chase: ‘ ~ ALEXANDER n. s-rn’ttzis' mssrox. It is no longer n necrvt that the precise minion of Alpxnnder ll‘. Stephens, when he was refused pex'miuion to visit Wash ington. as from the Confederate Govern ment. was to prepose first an armistice for a certain number of (luvs or months ; second, the assemblage of a National Convention of all the States; third. an asmrnnce on the part of the Southern lenders that the South *ould hold itself bound to consent to a commercial union with the North—tlmtis, a union which would permit, from commer cial intercourse between the North and South. and would he one nation, so far as their dealings~ with other countries were concerned. As to whether' the North should have th_r- power to pm upon (my question ntfecting the domestic institutions of the South. it was to he left an open ques tion: and if n convention of the States which met could find A happy solution for it. the South would bo bound to accept. it. That this was the burden ol Mr. Stephens’ meisngp was known '3! the time, unollicial ly, by Mr. Lincoln himself. . He did not chose boom] the war then, and Consequently the loss: of life and the waste of treasure which has occurred since than is to be attributed onuv to tho malign influences which surrounded him.

Mr. Cllflse had found in the conduct of 'the finances that the limit of exhaustion was almost reached. and that war for another year on the present 001103531 scale wits sim ply impossible with the honor and financial integrity of the notion. Hence Mr. Cmue wnuin favor of treating the proposition of Jeff: Davis with conuderatinn. But the Cabinet were generally opposed to it. and reunited that. Davis and hid armiesimuat really be in a very bad condition, or the offer would not have been I'hade. They. therefore, determined to try the issue of another campaign. The mmpnign Its» been tried. and its renult is before the country.— The bi-leons waste of life and treamre which has resulted from this prolongation of the war, is of course to be laid to me credit of Abrahnm Lincoln, President 0 the United States. V ‘ . wnn rm mom or! I. 'l‘hoee who claim to haver latiom and alliliafions with the Souther people any that the North cannot expect to have the old Union in its integrity. The changed relations of things, they say. necessitateitf not two' nations on this continent. one no tion in which one section shalthave no re sponxibility or power over the glox stic in— stitutions of the other. They 35mm}; recognition of State rights in a much more mnrked degree than has hitherto prevailed will be essential to re-umon. That if the North will content to Allow each State to have full anthority over all its domestic in stitutions; if, in short: the doctrine of pop ular sovereignty is applied to the States. as the late Senator Douglas desired to,lmve it applied to territories, leading Southern men can see no reagon why the Union cannot be established. Of course these schemes of reconstruction open awide field for speculation. On all side§ it is admitted that M the relations nre changed the resulting Union W 1” difl‘er in some of its material features from the old Union. Both sections perceive that it would be for their interest to have one com: mercinl code; that trade between the North and South should be absolutely unrestrict ed. and that the financial and commercial policy should be such as would build up the nation through mutual concessions and the granting of mutunl privilegm, rather than through mmmercxal reductions and antagonism. It l 5 also admitted that, to maintain the power of the United States. a‘nd make it respected all over the world, it should have a definite foreign’ policy, in which both the North And the’ South should cordially agree. But, so far as thedomestic in’yfitutions and the local peculiarities of each section are cancerned, the Southern people insist my. they shall make Quch laws as they leage, ,and shall be only responsi bro '{o ‘tfiernselveifor their own peculnlr in. ltitutions. “is argued that evenvnlou. .perfect Union thumbs old one—one with Mrfideienm at we sacral 3mm, ali- path-p .without In much «fixiqlond tMrl2l:l IPZCULATI‘ONS TWO DOLLARS A-Y EAR unity in the csntrnl Gnvernmont. wnulll bu preferable to the subjugation nl‘ the South : that in that event the old Union would be gone forcver; that‘the relationawhibh oxiat between the conquering and conquered. province‘s are such that republican liberty cannot lgst; that it would inevitaLly lend to centralized dmpnlimn.

'- Some q'f the holder speculators wish to go even further. They say that not only can the North and South live to‘gether in one nation, but there is no reason why Canada; also should not be allowed to enter intotbe Confed-mtion. The change in the form of government now in action in‘ Canada. will' simplify this matter very much. The Cunn (lions are about to organize 2 Federal Go vernme'nt, composed of three to fi've'Stotes. Whyshould they not become part of the great North American Confederacy, under circumntances that‘ would not make them responsible for our debt, but sharing the great commercial‘advnntagee which would ‘ flow from unrestrained business intercourse throughout the whole length and breadth of the North American continent? We could then build Pacific Railroads in peace, . not only through Northern and Southern territory, but also through Canada, to what ‘ rm- now the Britiqh posseasions on‘ the Pay I cific. In ’time Mexico could come in use part of this great confederation of States:- ‘ of course not while an emperor ’reigns in i Mexico, but under some new form of gtw- } .ernment which would be stimulated into life upon the reconstruction of the United “i States. The late Senator Don has, in one or" his last speeches, spoke quitifovorably of the scheme for a. commercial confederation [ ‘of all the Stotee c this continent. Indeed a he even wished t 2 go so lnr usho include. I also, the nations of South America, based somewhat upon the plan of the Zolverein, I which prevails in Germany, and by which the great German Empire, while divided into separate nationalities, has still one commercial policy. This vast scheme could be realized: umler the new state of thiagsl propagell 1191' the North and the South, should ‘it ever be brought about. SENATOR wsra‘n‘s nauaovaxxnaxr SCHEME. Those who are curious in such matters ‘ are bringing to light Senator llunter’s‘i speech in the Senate immediately after the I secesqion of South Carolina. That Senator, ‘ it will he remembered. advocated a speciesi ofdual government. He said the old Union ‘ was dead. and the North and South. if they eVer came together. would do so under i conditions in which they would be equal Runners. liis scheme was for both It 1 .‘orthern and Southern President to be ‘ elected, and both toserv alternately.

It is no secret that the great political in terests at the South are heartily sick of the ‘ war and eager for its discontinuance. I'ti will he noticed that for the hut two years but little has been heard or the Cohbq. "l‘oombl, Rhetts. llunten. Clays, Yuleea, and that swarm of politicians whowerc wont to figfire so conspicuously in the local poli tics of their States previout to the disrup tion ‘of the Union. will these men—and they were still influential at the South feel keenly how much thry have been over riden by the military element, and hence they are naturally desirouw of coming back ton state of thing: in which they would again be able to maketheir appearance on the stage of mliticnl life. Therefore all [hie classof pohticians are desirous that the War should come to an end. and It is they who are mo=t active in forwarding these volunteer negotiations It will he noticed that it is this class of men that Mr. Vullun (ligham met in passing through the South. and who, he says. declared that the South would willingly come back into the Union if an armistice were‘ declared. There can be no doubt of the sincerity of these per sons, but there is a good deal of doubt whether they nremuthorized to not in be half‘of the Confederate Government. Itis very certain that George Sanders would not be given any scriouq mission to settle any question between the two sections.
