Over due.

--On the 22d of December last, Mr. Wm. H. Seward said, in a speech at the Astor House, that in sixty days the trouble would all be over. This peace draft, at sixty days sight, says the New York Day Book, of the 22d, is to-day just three months over due, and not met yet. It seems to us high time that the people had protested it.

We have protested it down South--have declared it to be a worthless piece of paper, drawn by an insolvent upon a bankrupt — have refused to have anything to do with it, and will not touch it under any circumstances whatever. It is the sole and exclusive property of the North, and they must deal with it as they see proper.
