Helconsb nod Ja cob- Tho mpson, appeared . t the Falls, on 416 Canada' side, and shortlY after it was discovered that Horace Greeley was on this side and that a correspondence was going on bet Ween the parties. t! Curiosity was on tip-toe to learn the , nature of the oorrespondence, and surmises Were rife as to what was to grog out of it. f Mr. Gree ley gratified th'e public by revealing the correspondenc e . The first letter is from Sanders to Greeley saying that they are "ready and willing to go once to Washington, upon complete and unqual ified protection being given, either by the / President or Secretary of ' War." Mr. Greeley then very naturally inquires : I am informed that you are duly accredited from Richmond as the bearers ofipropositions looking to 'the establishment of, peace, that you desire to, visit Washington in the fulfil ment of your mission, and that i you further desire that Mr. George N. Sanders shall company you. If my informatidn be thus far substantially correct, I am authorized by the. President of the United States k.o tender you his safe conduct on the.jonrney pioposed, and to accompany you at the !earliest time i that will be agreeable to you. 1 'Mr. Greeley then receiveda letter cor reetina the isupresAon that they had been 'accredited from Richmond, 'but stating that they were in n the confidential em piterment of "their Government" and consequently knete its wishes. This changing from Commissioners to individ- 1 eels, of course:joy?lved a change of pro cedure on the partiof Mr. Greeley. ' ,Greeley then inforins the Rebels that he hat telegraphed to Washington for in structions, and shoiely after , receives the following instruotiens, which we copy in full : " Ij I EXECUTIVE M.AXSION, 'WASHINGTON, II July 18, 1864.

Safe Conduct both ways. ABRAHAM LINCOLN. !The letter which terminates the cor respondence is a long letter frees Clay and Holcomb, which they transmit through Col. Jewett to Mr.' Greeley stating - that the document of the President addressed ',whom it may concern," Precludes nego tiation, and proceed to argue in behalf of `their cause. This correspondence has i g l ven the "Cops" an opportunity to bowl about • "rejection of peace propositions" end assert that President Lincoln "desires t 6 continue the war." To thinking men. this cannot but be ridiculous, but with the masses, who many , times take asser tion for argurdent,' this will not seem so foolish, and knowing that the rebels in the North are attempting to create the impression "that if the GoVernment would, they could have peace." How foolish T These men acknowledge that they are! acting in an individual capacity; that theyare not accredited from Richmond, and that if terms of pease, were agreed upon between them and our Government they would then have to prOcure the con sent of "their Government,"—which might and might not be &hie. It looks to me,like an "electioneering dodge" of the Copperheads, the best:way it can be seen. Some weeks ago this Geo. N. l Sanders, a northern renegade, telegraphed to the editor of the Herald that he was at the Clifton House and Wanted to see him. Did he or did he not see him and plan this_trap by which Mr. Greeley, in his earnest desire for the' public good, Should be made the means for an attack ' upon the Administration. If he did not, , it must lie a curious expression that; James Gordon Bennett, wears 'upon his' face to-day. For a lung tiros North! Carolina has been surging to and fro upon the waves' Of the Old Union; the - Corifederacy, and an Independent Sovereignty, in which the old North State should constitute a i tieparate Government. This wriggling , and squirming has cost hee'much trouble. Her last proposition is "individual sov ereignty' in which she shall be neutral, neither for the North or the South. The Richmond papers advise her of the very 'important propositions which it will be necessary for her to pratitically demon strata in such an event. The removal of all Federal troops, from her soil and also file' removal of the civic an4military oroet of the Reltels. V'o Federal or Rebels troops must then (be allowed to , cross her border, or her neutrality would be defeated. She would stand between two fires, either of which Would be strong enough to consume her. !That this posi tion would be einteneble it needs no ar gument to prove. What !will become of the "old North State," the laud of pine knots and tar, it is bard to say. I dropped upon a true disciple of Val landigham the other day. Some one .was telling him that -McClellan 'had made-a r ay speeoh ire which he was reported to have said he was in favor of putting down Ithe Rebellion by force of arms. The old Nebel, very mucle , :exoited, exclaimed : "Then we , must 'have a different candi date, I won't vote for him I" Thus it Igoeti.

The Watchman of Bellefonte), than which there is not a worse sheet north of Ma sores and Dixon's line, proposes to the people to come forth and , resist] by force of arms the enforcement of its provisions.

' 111,. Washington CorrOspondence. WASHINGTON July; 21, 1864. ' DEAR JOURNAL : CoMmencing where I left off, I made a short trip up the Erie road which I could not begin to make as interesting to another as it was to myself, and one up the Hudson which I could easily make infinitely mob so if I chose. Then on one of the hottest of our red hot days I started on my return by way of Philadelphia. After a short but very pleasant sojourn in Baltirnore with some old friends from Potter, . l at last arrived at my respectable lodgings juSt in time to enjoy the "sensation" produced by the , late rebel raid. Gen. Thomas called' out the militia. The patriotic clerks of the different departments had l'flown to arms," and looked a formidable defense of-vt noble city, with their wilted dickeys, stave pipe hats, and smooth-bore muskets. Old secessionists of a mathematical turn of mind were to be seen' on every street corner, multiplying the ;dangers of our situation by two and the number of the raiders by ten The burden of their song was sagely taken up and' passed along until W'ashington was frightened. They deny it now, and say they I were only "making believe." It that is true I ad vise the city to take the ;siage in a body. They "play with great fidelity to nature, Daring the presence of the enemy oni the Seventh, Street road, and in the vi-I einity of Ro3kville, Co., I made frequent excursions in • those directions as far as prudence permitted, mid in one or two instances rather farther: FrOm all the facts I am able to gathei I have set doivn the invading force at about 15,000. All higher estimates, I must regard as exag gerations, all considerably lower, as the outbursts of invidious spleen on the part, of those who would dravv,conselation from the mortification which 'loyal men must feel in contemplating this. audacious and , successful Rebel enterprise. Maryland is the theatre of ivide-spread and.general desolation. There are heavyl hearts covered by long, faceS to be met with at every turn. Their 'whining 'is doleful, especially that of ti* who have net established . sufficient reputation. for; loyalty to throw themselvies upon the syre- , pathy of the Governmeht and its sup porters. To say the truth, the pity I have for them, though kreatr, is not un-' mixed with blame. They have, in nearly every individual instance kept up but a very thin show of surface loyalty; and have ever been ready to give ;information and even more substantial aid to the'en- emy. They have been but too willing to laud the Confederate leaders to the skies and to sneer at the "ne'gro q;vorshipers,". as they have seen fit to name' all loyal men. The consequence's of their perfidy have been visited upon themiwith an un sparing hand,--a friendly &aid withal ! The leaders whose prowess they praise, have they not picked the bones of their chickens"? The '_'chivalric Bost" whose bravery has been the object of their un bounded admiration, has it not stolen their pigs,horses and cows, and plundered their boot, shoe and hatlstores ? I dread thit helpless women and children should suffer, but as far as concerns the men, the pity I feel for them is the same one feels for the criminal, in justice condemned to expiate his crime. Their pleas of friend liness to the Confederate cane were uni formly met with heaviei levies, by way of commutation for the serticesiwhich these "blind leaders of the blind" supposed fr:fnd/y seiri4 should render in the field. The long talked of 'call ifor 500,0001 men was formally made on the 18th•ult., in, accordance With the views expressed by Gen. Grant. Considerable gossip has been had here yesterday and to-day conterning the con ference between Mr. Greeley and Mr. Geo. N. Sanders (Confederate Agent), at Ni agara Falls. The greatest difficulty seems to be that nobody kno4rs how much to believe. There is surely enough said. LCol. .Jaques, of an Illinois regiment; once a preacher of the Methodist persua sion, has actually been ):.o lUchitiond and "talked to" Jeff. Jeff, it is said, was 1 deeply • impressed, and took the quand,ul) - ejder's hand in Loth of his, and squeezed it, nothing more. Ad Edmund Kirk, author of "Among. the Pinea" was along we may safely look for a book telliaz all about , Now as concerns these little bide shows, in this great tragedy; - they should not for a moment distract our, attention frotri the great plot. ;Orkin net in du; ty bound ,to make any peace propositions. We'didliot , propose the _war,, cor even foll 4 it lip sAth-..;oommeddable spirit whirl it was fofeekapoo _No prop°. shier froili 'the 'ediitmy can, be looked for except as a last resort; and-should they come, may be taken as an • easy way of saying, "We are whipped and •we cave in." Let no Mart delude -himself with the :iepe.tWthey wish to live on friendly terms witti-us. ,There_is op() way to end thewar,:yrAglit it out. If we ,back down we shall_be, pursued and compelled to fight. If tie glib them "independence" . • they will want - our territory 'for planta- tions, and our free negroes to stook there with. they , ,will:' want our "poor'tihitert" thrown •ini-and' will keep on 'cleintinding;tintil4ou'refuse, and - then float us again - for 'refusing. This may seern a tolerably l strotig itatemect, but "tlie has'nrit been' told." The ass in the fable' who" '!went' to the , goat's house for wool" was not half as much of an ass as fh6se who prate about "peace" in these times: - 1 _ , Among thenota e•visitors-in town to. day I noticed teary Ward Beecher, and Mr.. Howard of bogus "Proclamation" fame, 'who it is said came in' company. They went 'up to see the President, and curiosity Was busy ,as to what . their busi ness might be. - I bed' thought to say a word at some time talent our last Congress. It was in some respects a remarkable body. Ido not believe the stories of corruption, but I fully recognize the fact that a little more of what we term "pluck"' and what iScotehmen call "manhood," was needed to its compesition. Caution, discretion; policy, are very good qualities for legis lators especially,but nothing in rough and rugged times can -fully dompensate for want of Mental • and moral '"back-bone." I admire the man whom no interest, not even the "whiskey interest" can drive from the support of an important measure. 1 would trespass on your space to add a word concernitig "our member," Hon. 'James T. "Hale. No man in the House has more of the confidence of his co. workers. He iS regarded as a man of very sound judgment, and his' course of con.duct is beyond reproach. A plain man, he lives in plain style surrounded by hiS ownfamily. He is rather too for getful of names and faces to be agreeable; but candor compels me to say that I re gard that as a weakness. of his, and not in the !Coat degree intentional on his part. Lbelieve, he is sincere in his de sire to do his whole duty by his constit. nency. Ido not believe the District can name abetter man, and- in justice to itself it should return him, as its repro. sentative in the next Congress. Weather warm and dry. Crops look ing finely. Market supplied with water melons and little curly peaches nearly ripe. Everyeurs, MERIT. Enrollment; Drafting and Sub- nititutes, - Our enrollment or conscription laws now consist of three separate acts, dating resp'etively March 3,1863, February 24, 1864, and July 4, 1864. In order, there fore, to get at the present state of the laws on the subject of enrollment, draft ing end subststutes, those acts must be taken - and read! together , For the ad. vantage of the public, who are all inter- ested in the present call forrtive hundred thousand volunteers, and ha the draft which will certainly follow on the sth of' September next, wherever the quota is not filled up, we have prepared a concise statement of the law as it now 'stands. THE NATIONAL FORCES consist of all able-bodied citizens of the United States and of all. persons of foreign birth who have legally declared their intention to' become citizens, between the ages of twenty and forty-five years. These terms now include colored men, and aliens who,' although not naturalized, may have voted or held office, as it frequently happens in the new States of the, West. All of the persons thus included iu the "National forces" are liable to military duty upon call of the President at any time withhil I the period of two Years from the first day' of July succeeding the enrollment. By instructions from the Provost Masital- General at WaShington, under the pre-' visions of the Act of February, 1864, the District Provost Marshals have been au thorized to add l to the rolls the names of all those who have arrived at the age of twenty years between the time of the en rollment and draft, and' likewise to erase the names of those who shall have at tained *the age: of _forty-five before the wheel is eet in' motion. They are like wise to add the names of all those ex• empted under the.Aet of March 3'3,1863, and all persons who have been discharged from the army or navy unless they have I servedit least two years. THE EXEOTE are reduced to the fol lowing': _Such persons as are physically or mentally , unfit for the service; all per eons actually in. the military or naval ser— ilee of the United States at the time of the draft; and all persons who have serv ed In the` military' or naval service two! years `during , the present war, and been honorably discharged. These are the 4,0,4 - Persona exempt hi law. The phrase silticti-eleilapta! "all persons actually in eir4f;val service of the United States - at the time, of 'the draft," stands -019Ast of February 24,1864, without qualification. , We,helieqe ) however; it is h,eld - to exclude ,theone hundred days," men, and,"emergeney'l men, though upon what authority , we &rill not able to say. 110130 case of. the "hundred days' men' from Ohio, the exclusion from exemption under the law was upon direct agreement between the War Department and- tki Executive of that State.. Ackii' it . will operate where there is no each: expiess agreement, is an open questinnove believe. COMMUTAtION MONEY, in lieu of sub stitutes, is no longer: permitted, except is of members of religious denomi nations who are prohibited from _bearing arms, by the rules and articles of faith of such denomination. These may be as signed to hospital duty or the care of con trabands, or may pay in each ease the sum of three hundred dollars for the care of sick and wounded soldiers. SUBSTITUTES may be procured by per- sons enrolled, .before- the draft, or' by drafted men•after the draft. In the case of an enrolled man 'who furnishes a sub stitute , before. the draft, the substitute must be one Whcris,not liable to enroll ment. That is, the substitute must be an alien ; or be must have served at least two years in the army or navy during ithie war, and been honorably discharged; or he must be an inhabitant of Virginia, North Carolina, Sauth Carolina, Georaia, Alabama, Mississippi or Texas ; or he must be n - person now in. the , military or naval service of the United States, who has served more thin one year and whose term of unexpired service - at - the time of , substitution shall'not exceed six months; or he.must be a person over forty-five or.' under twenty (if the War Department will accept such). An accepted nob liable substitute front- any of the forego ing classes will exempt his principal for the whole term for which bis substitute is accepted. In the case of a substitut i e offered after the draft for a drafted mafi, the substitute may be selected from those who are liable to draft, as well as those who are not liable, but when the substi tute is liable, the name of the principal is amain entered on the rolls to be subject to future calls, but not until the present enrollment is exhausted. DRAFTING only takes place in ma the requisition, of the president is not filled within fifty' days after the call is made. The tern of service for drafted men is one year`. All colonisers and substitutes down to the day of the draft are to be credited on the quota and to be deducted from the number to be drafted. The number of names to be drawn from the wheel is to be equal to the deficiency of the particular Ward or District with one hundred per cent. added. Drafted men, voltinteers and substitutes are to be placed in the military org anizations from theft own States, 'and asfar as uneticable they are to have thmr choice./ Able seamen or ordinary seamen efire drafted ate to have the privilege Wsting for the same period in the na . And all enlistments heretofore ma the army or marine corps are be -enrolled in the. wards, districts y i o., where they belonged at the time • t 0" enlistment, and are to be cred- Vree quota. " . . II BOUNTIES to volunteers are one hun d dollars for one year,two,hundred dollars for two years, and three hundred dollars for three years; one-third to be paid at the time of muster, one third when' . half the term has been served, and the I remaining 'one third at the time of dis charge. In case of the death of the vol unteer while in service ' the residue of the bounty unpaid! shall be paid to his I widow, or to his children, or to hip moth er if she be a widoW. .„.., t RECRUITING IN ?TUE- REBEL STATES is authorized by the third section of the act of July 4;. 1864, which makesit law ful for the .Executi4e of any State-to send recruiting agents :into Vilginia, North Carolina, South Cdrolina, Georgia; Ala bama, Mississippi !or Texas, to recruit volunteers, to .be ,credited on the quota of the State sending the agent, or on the sub-division thereoc which may procure the enlistment. / This important section will be unavail able to Philadelphia and Penns}ivania unless the authoritihs of both bestir them selves. Already ttie Governor of Massa chusetts' with an alacrity that looks as if he bad the advantage of fore-knowledge of what was coming, has appointed his agents, and they will have the first sweep of the field. We ipress it upon our au thorities to give speedy attention to this matter. Such __ are the p*cipal features of our laws on the subject; of enrollment, draft ing substitutosi as they stand under the three acts above named. F.1141_, YOUR QUOTA 2 Capt. James 11.
