Francis P. Blair, Br., went on his sec
ond Mission of Peace to Richmond on
Saturday. His son, Montgomery Blair, i
did not accompany him. Pksfiea from
the Confederate authorities—civil and
military (delay in the receipt of Which,
at Grant s headquarters, had induced
Mr. Blair last week to return to Wash-,
ington)—had been transmitted to him
kete, and will enobfo him to oentinue bis 1
journey to Richtnohd without interrup
tion. He is doubtless in that city. It is
known here that Mr. Blair will , propose
to the Davis Government a scheme of
pacification, resting fubdamentaHy on a
return of the Rebellious States to the
Union. Whatever political and moral
advantages may be derived to us from
this tender of the olive branch, no hope
is entertained hero that Mr. BkirVmis
sions will have the success of initiating
negotiations for peace. The condition
,of reunion will be fatal to Ids dr any
other envoy’s labors.
George D. Prentice- of the Louisville
Journal, who has been in Richmond for
over a month, the envoy of live treacher
ous Unionism of Kentucky, on his arriv
al here through our lines, of which he
seem, to have the run, reported to Ken
tuckians in the house of his own sympa
thies, that the Jeff. Davis Government
had conclusively resolved to free and
,arm the Slaves; that 200,b00 of them
would soon be equipped and put into the
.field to fight us, under the stimulus of
the promise of their own liberty and tliat
of their wives and children, and of a
proprietary interest in the soil. In this
desperate war policy,intelligent men hear
Jeff Davis's reply to Francis P. Blair's
proposition for peace.
