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.

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.
