forward his views. In no other respect did Colonel Jaquess receive any support from the President, neither was their given to him, by any of our authorities, any warrant whatever for official negotiations. It was simply a private mission of the Colonel, with which the President saw no reason to interfere. Accompanied by Edmund Kitke, the Colonel proceeded to Gen Grant's headquarters, and having been permitted to pass our lines, they started for Richmond by the northern bank of the James river. They found no difficulty in entering the Confederate lines, and, in fact, every courtesy was kindly extended to them as they journeyed toward the capital, which they reached on Saturday last. How they were received. As soon as Col Jaquess arrived at Richmond he requested that he might be placed under guard, which was done, although the entire freedom of the city was immediately extended to him. He was assigned elegant apartments at the Spotswood House, the best hotel in Ri

Regretting a delay, which I am sure you will regard as unavoidable on my part, I remain yours, truly, Horace Greeley, [Messrs Holcombe and Clay to Mr Greeley.] Clifton House. Niagara Falls, July 19, 1864. To Hon Messrs O C Clay, Jr, and J P Holcombe, Clifton House, Niagara, C W. Sir: Colonel Jewett has just handed us your note of this date, in which you state that further instructions from Washington will reach you by noon to-morrow, if there be no interruption. --One, or possibly both of us, may be obliged to leave the Falls to day, but will return in time to receive the communication which you promise to morrow.

I rely on the Constitution for protection in expressing freely my views. The Government thus refuses the only possible means to peace. I cannot understand a policy that forever excludes negotiations. Not only is it the desire of the South to treat for an honorable peace, but all Europe urge it. How just and noble the position of the South to negotiate independently of a condition for independence or jurisdiction over slavery, submitting disputed points to a fair tribunal — to Switzerland, or to an international Congress or otherwise. I see only a determination of the Administration, in pursuing the present war policy, to revolutionize the North, with the entire destruction of republican liberty. Wm. Cornell Jewett. A Semi-official intimation.

continued their journey to this city. It is understood that Col Jaquess will soon publish an official account of this visit and the object connected with it, and whatever may be thought of the Colonel's proposed, means of reconciliation, there can be no doubt both of his honesty and unswerving loyalty. [George N. Sanders to Horace Greeley][private and confidential.] Clifton House. Niagara-Falls, C. W., July 12, 1864. Sir: I am authorized to say that Hon Clement C Clay, of Alabama, Prof James P Holcombe, of Virginia, and George N Sanders, of Dixie, are ready and willing to go at one to Washington, upon complete and unqualified protection being given, either by the President or Secretary of War. Let the permission include the three names and one other. Very respectfully, George N. Sanders. [Horace Greeley's reply] Niagara Falls, N. Y., July 17, 1864.

President of the Baltimore Convention, is here. He preceded Greeley about ten days, and had a five hours" interview with Prof. Holcomb, who is his cousin, and, it is rumored, entered into the spirit of the occasion. Is there a weakening of the knees of the faithful brethren or what is up? There are some very queer events transpiring here, and you need not be surprised at anything that you hear from this quarter. Greeley has got the lead in the negotiations now in progress. "Colorado Jewett," a silly monomaniac on the subject of peace, who has been the laughing stock of the North for the last two years, sends the Herald the following dispatch: Cataract House, Niagara Falls, July 19, 1864.--Distinguished representatives of the South are in Canada, urging peace.

ree score years and ten. He still remains blind in one eye, but sees very distinctly out of the other, which is quite evident from the manner in which he has managed the rebellion. He who waits for the rebellion to cease through the demise of the rebel President, had best cease such hopes, and join the Union army as a speedier method with which to terminate the war. Visits to prisons and hospitals. During Col. Jaquess's stay in Richmond he visited the prisons — Libby and Belle Isle. He was very agreeably disappointed to find our men comfortably situated and as well cared for as was possible under the circumstances. Only the desperate cases of our wounded are retained in the hospitals at Richmond. Our brave boys were bearing up cheerfully under their sufferings, and were receiving all needful attention, and everything possible was being done for their recovery by the surgeons and attendants. This will be cheering news for the many anxious mothers and w
