Upoo tbif diviaion of bia aobject, he J laid among other thinir Nov, g eatleaien, Virginia'feU aerioualj in thi matter, and called cpoo the eight remaining uoraer otateaand tne rree States to aend Com m flsionera to Waahington to aee what new rnr- aateeaand eecnnUee conld be obtained for the . righta of the Soathj Virginia, tbe State of Wash iagtoa, Jefftfreoa and Madiaon, tbe mother of stateaaea, had atill a heart of love for the Union; she appealed to the States, aad thej answered their eel', and at Waahington, though te-enty-one . State' were represented, there were but seven slave State, as Arkansas did not send delegates; at Waahiatos we met thea. That was a noble appeal of Virginia o the States that had elected Lincoln, it was an appeal to their justice and their love of tbe Union, and it was not made in vain. New J r sty responded favorably, so did Pennsylvania through five out seven of her delegates who all had voted for Lincoln; so did Ohio by five oat of seven, all of whom, hot lie, voted for Lincoln. Oor neifhborins: States of Indiana sent ft e Republicans, and it did not seem to me there were any Democrats higs or Americans on that s do of tbe river, still ten of tbeae vera r-e lf to rrant concession to the Suih and tbe State de!gati-n finally decided not to vuteoo tbe propositions IIlinoiLthe State of the President, Mr. lj-ucoln. sent nv delegate, all of whom had nt d for him, hot three of these maintained that tbe booth r Stales were entitled to. n w gnarHBteea in the new condition of thing, and Die of them said to me that bo aaenbee was too - great far the preservation of the Union. Kanea was divided, but there were two noble apiriti from that State who said we were entitled to additional guarantees and they were ready to give them. The great State of Nrw York seat dele gates by her Republican Legislature and fi'aogt of the eleven were for concemuon and giving as of lh Soeth oar jast rights. North we had some , bard hargaios. They wanted to know what they had done that this thing should happen f They were told that they bad taken the abolitionists to their arms and ased them aetU we eonld no loo beliive that oar iastitatious were safe, and that there had been a great opbeaminc at the oath owing to their platform and theia Republican or ators and that against the doctrines thus proclaimed there were no free people nf proper spirit thai would a tt rebel when their righta and inter-: 4ta were about to be saerifieed. - The Peace Conference passed -thirteen articles amendatory t'i tbe d"titotion, and aent them to Conrress But Washington was the worst place in the Union and it was a great mistake that the Conference met there where the fiercest partisanship raged in tbe Senate and House, to pet down tbe Dem-oc;,tio party, and get control of the office and Government and the anoaI diatribation of one handred millions of revenue In patronage. W felt their influence in tbe Peare Conference, fier tiey set their nen to mingle with as, and wheu we aeet ear work to Congreaa to be carried out, after all kinds of p0'M'tinalion it was 1. jx to their successors, sod noi referred to the States the people eaiht rote directly upon our proposi K ent. I say hers to-aight that I verily believ thai a majority in the Free Slates ae eady to Eire oa all required gaaraatees and hold the Taioo together whenever the people have, an op-frunitr to speak aad make their voices heeid through the ballot box. They will change their rulers aad representative men and elect those who will be willing to grant as all w desire. Bat it will take time ; their members of Congress . stad. essay of. their Legislatures, and impracticable men were set to the Peace Conference, aad what we obtained we obtained from many grudgingly. How should they have responded to the noble act of Virginia appealing to the North, wfcea she knew that Border Slave States were shorn of their strength by seven seceding States going oat of the Union? They ahould have recognized the action of the Peace Conference, granted free It what we asked, and referred jt to the people. The delay was unfortunate, bat the iisse will come when tbe people will have an ooertanttr Co speak, aad when the North does peak, aad sVe rr to speak, it will be ia favor of the Union and the. flag of oar country, the Cag.of Liberty. rmccT or cxctssxov ad th dctt or kkstvckt. Un!er these heads, Mr. Gatbrie remarked : . Th act of Lo nisi ana in goiog out of the Union was bold. There are now in the valley of Mississippi tea . millions inhabitants, and she has laid ont her scheme for taxing all their ont'going aad iacoming trade for all coming time, la twenty years that ralley will have twenty millions of inhabitants, and io fty years more than fifty millions ; will they submit to these exaetiona 7 I say that act was a bold thing, and, until these quesuooa are settled, I am for committing Kentucky to the Sonthera Confederacy, and nntil th - free Elates say what are they going to do if tbe aaotttl) of th Zlissiatlppi river is shut op to them ftsil their export and their import are to be taxed.

LiaeoU. in the meanwhile is not going to make war ott the Sooth ; Con gress did not pass a force law; he baa no army and no means or authority to raiaean army ; te can t collect tbe revenue on tbe ocean, for lb lawa do not aotborvzi it. end even hie own par? ia Congreaa did not furbish to r. means, or n on ey. or authorize the collection of reveohe in e ceding ports, to bring on anvil war. His bands were tied; tie was bound to keep the peace and listen to the voice of tbe American nation, which criee out, "peace, no blood!" It is interesting to know why the Fore Bill and the law for the collection of tbe revenue were not passed. 'The Democrats and old line Whigs of Connecticut held meetings and demanded peace, and in Pennsylvania also, both parties recommended pacific measures in their conventions, and so the Force Bill and coerciva measures were arrested and postponed in deference to the popular Sen timet la for peace. I know many men who voted for Lin cole who are for peace, and opposed to war as otneb as I or any other man in tbe land can be. Mr. Lincoln is an honest man from all I learn ; he was net tni candidate, and if God lets me live, I will never rote for a sectional Presidential candidate; a man mnst be all for the Union, and march ander the flag of the. Union and far i be Union, before be get my vote. But Mr, Lin- cola will be restrained, evea if be were otherwise inclined, by the voice and will of the American people, and there will be no war unless they die- re-rard all law and Constitution, and are the most bloodthirsty wretches in the world, which I do not believe. Wby arm ther. end put the Slate to great expense ? ; There is going to be no civil war ; the North and the Sooth are aot goirg to fight each other ; we are not going to fight the seceding Stab and they are not going to attack ua.

I have far from exhausted this subject. If sympathies were with the South when aaectional party first came into power, but my judgment is against hast and - inconsiderate svetioa, and against striking bands with thos who deserted s when we wete assailed. Where we may go eventually I cannot say; political idea combined with matetial iatereete always govern a country. I shall leave our Ueioa1 flag with 'regret,' bat we may be brought to it, though I trust not ia my day. I was born under the Constitution and desire to die in th Union.

The state of the atmosphere at the time was rather aa ab normal one- .About nine-tenths of the sky wss covered by a thin, gsozy film (sirrie atraittt,) nearly obscuring the ray of the sun. The wind was very light,, blowing a gentle breeze from outh-wesU Thermometer 66 6 Fahrenheit : barometer (reduced to freezing . point) 29,90 nohes ; relative humidity 39,9; fore of pressor of vapor 0,179.

The Richmond Jis? pitch also remarks : As to the threat of hanging now so common in coercive circles, .let it never be forgotten that bemp grows in the South more abundantly than in the North, and that hanging is a game at which two can play. For every Southern privateersmsn hung without Judge or Jury, two Sons of the Pilgrims will 'be up like dried codfish at the first convenient lamp post, oak tree, or yard-arm. Let them inaugurate their blockade as soon as they like, and initiate at once the brutalities with which they threaten any attempts at resistance and reprisal. We venture to predict that if they dare to mete out an measure to Southern privateers which they would themselves consider : unjust and inhuman if inflicted by European men of war upon their owa private armed marine,- the prisoners of the South will be made to pay an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and a life for a liGs, till they are sick to the soul of "hanging Southern privateers without Judge or Jary." - - ' ' - .

A gentleman was eogsged to . watch on night, hi doty being to wake the nurse whenever it became necessary to take the medicine. In th course of the night both watcher an 3 'nars fell' asleep. The maa with the mump lay watching th clock, and saw it was tittrV to give th favr patient his portion. He wa naabl to speak aloud or ' to more any portion of at body except his arms; but seizing a pillow b managed to strik th watcher ia the fee with it. The suddenl awakened, the watcher sprang from bis seat, falling to th floor and awniening both th nurse and th fever pa tient.
