The Washington Chronicle, noticing the failure of the late "peace negotiations," says: After considerable correspondence between the parties, it was concluded to refer the whole matter back to the two Governments for reconsideration. All negotiations having been terminated Mr Greeley, in company whit Mr Ray, Private Secretary of Mr Lincoln, catted upon the Commissioners at the Clifton House, on the side, where a protracted and pleasant interview was held, and the various questions under consideration were discussed at length.

Boston this morning. After eating a hearty breakfast they took a steamer for Annapolis. The weather at last exhibits symptoms of a change for the better. We have had no rain as yet, it is true, but there is, a fair promise of it.--An hour's "heavy wet" would be worth millions to the farmers in the country round about, and millions more to the consumers of vegetables and other country produce that are held at exorbitant prices in anticipation of a short crop, owing to drought. General Dix, you will see, has justituted proceedings against the editor of the Newark Mercury, for a treasonable article in its issue of yesterday, counseling resistance to the draft. It would not be at all surprising now it similar proceedings should be instituted, for like offences, against two weekly papers published in this city. Both have been for some time past publishing ferocious articles against the draft, but if proceeded against at all, it will probably be by civil process. Another

We fear Col. Jacques will accomplish little of the purpose he has at heart. --But he will at any rate have to say that he visited Richmond under somewhat remarkable circumstances.--N Y Evening Post. Kentucky and the Quota. The Washington Chronicle, of the 22d, has a very bitter article upon the conduct of Governor Bramlette, of Ky, in protesting against the enlistment and removal of the negroes as soldiers from that State. It makes the following extract from Bramlette's letter of June 25, (which was immediately followed by a proclamation of martial law in Kentucky:) To increase the obstacles in the way of raising volunteers, immediately succeeding the draft of a county, the Provost Marshals and other recruiting agents were set actively to work to induce all the able bodied negroes in such counties to run away and enlist; thus withdrawing from the growing crops the labor absolutely required to perfect and secure them.
