Vice Prrtiilrnl Nirpliroii' View* upon I’/ac. Itlerrmcal*. The following letter from our worthy Vice President Hon. A. II. Stephens, giving his views upon “l’eaci Movements,” will be read with great interest. It vi a written in answer to a letter addressed to him by sev eral gentlemen in the interior ofthe State CavvvFoRDvtt.LE, Ga., Sept.22d, 1864. Gentlemen :—You will please excuse me for not answering your letter of the i4tli instant sooner. 1 ‘tave been absent nearly a week on a visit to mv broth er in Sparta, who has been quite out of health for soim time. Your lettter I fotinu here t>n my return benu yesterday. The dflay of my reply thus occasioned J regret. , vVit.iout further explanation or apology, allow im now to say to you that 'no person living can possibly feel a more ardent desire for an end to be put to this unnatural and merciless war upon honorable and just terms than I do. But I really do not see that it is i: my power, or yours, or that ot any number of persons in our position, to inaugurate any movement that wil, ■ven tend to aid in-bringing abo.ita result that we and no many more so much desire. The movement by nm Legislature at its last session, at the suggestion of the Executive, on this subject, was by authority properly constituted for such a purpose. That movement iii my judgment wus timely .judicious, and in the right di rect ion. Nor bus it been without resu.fs. The organi zation of that party at the North to which y ti refer may justly be claimed as a part of the fruits of it.— These it is to be hoped will be followed by others of a moie nmiked character, if ail in both Sections who* sin cerely desire peace upon correct terms will give that movement thus inaugurated all the aid in their power The Resolutions of the_ Georgia Legislature at its last sessiou, upon the subject of peace, in my judg ment embodied and set forth very clearly those prin ciples upon which alone there can he permanentqieace between tiie different sections of this extensive, once happy and prosperous, but now distracted countrv — The easy ami perfect solution to all ourpresent troubles and those far more grevious ones which loom up in prospect ami portentously threaten in the coming fu tute, is nothing more than the simple recognition of the fundamental principle and truth upon which all Arneri- an Constitutional liberty is founded and upon the GEORGIA.

Georgia, our own St at, to whom we owe allegiance, has wiUi great uuammitv proclaimed the principles upon which'a just and per- imnent peace ought to be Bought and obtained. Tin 1 Vngress of the Confederate States has followed with an endorsement of these principles. All you, and 1 and others in our position therefore can do on that line it this time, is to sustain the movement thus alreadv inaugurated and to the utmost of our ability to hold np their principles as the surest hope of restoring soundness to the public mind North, as the brazen serprtit was held up forthe healing of Israel in the Wilderness. The chief aid and encouragement we can give the Peace Patty Rt the North is to keep before them these great fundamental principles and truths which a loro will lead them and us to a permanent aud lasting peace with the possession And cnjoymuMt .of Constitutional Liberty. With these principles or.ee recognized the futiiPe would take care of itself. There would be no more war so long as they' should be ndheare to. All questions of boundaries. Confederacies and Union ot Unions would naturally and easily adjust themselves according to the interest ofthe parties and the exigon cies of the times. Herein lies the true law of the bal anceof power and the harmony of States. Yours Respectfully, Alexander. II. Stephens. I.iciit. General Hardee.

'The Macon Telegraph, in referring to the parting between Gen Hardee and his late corps, says : We b ave been informed by parties who were pres ent at the parting between the General and his veteran poops, that the ovation was the most touching and complimentary ever gi-fen dining the war to any sol dier of the Confederate army. The General and Field officers came first during the afternoon to pay their respectH and say good bye to one, whom during a period of more than three years they had learned to love and serve.

It is dors flying as a token ol admiration and respect for their beloved commander. Amid cheers for 1 Old Reliable"—cheers long, loud and enthusiastic, the General came forward to make his farewell remai ks. His bronzed, warrior face seem e»l calm, though Wie convulsive t^vitehings of the mouth and the deep ’out tremulous tone of the voice, told the deep feeling that lay in the soldier’s-heart. Hejold them it was n sad tiling for him to part with men who had been the brave arid faithful soldiers they had always proved themselves to be ; but that he felt happy in leaving them in the hands of such a tried and efficient officer ns General Cheathams and under whom, he did not doubt, they would fight as well, and achieve as much success as they hud under his own command. He told them the commanding General would in a tew days, cross thearmy over the Chattahoochee on an offensive campaign, the plan of which he knew to be. excellent, and iie promised them that if they would but do their duty and give him a cordial and hearty sup port, and do such fighting as lie knew they eould and believed they would do, that the greatest success of the war would undoubtedly be drawn from Atlanta. His speeeli was received throughout with the wildest expressions of enthusiasm, and upon bidding them an aflectiouate farewell the crowd rushed towards their loved commander, and thousands of the old heroes from Arkansas, Alabama.

General Beauregard being loudly called tor, came torw aid as soon as the music had ceased, and was received with t‘e w ildest enthusiasm. For a few moments the gallant soldier stood motionless and silent, the cynosure of all eyes, and then as the crowd hushed into pet feet still ness, proceeded to return his thanks ter the kind reception tendered him—a reception, however, lie could not but think mine a homage to the cause than a compliment personal to himself. After tiie eloquent speech'of the president, lie .would not attempt more than a few words to say- that he was ready’ to go wherever the President should see tit to order him, and to fight the enemy on every sin gle foot ofthe ground. He had fired, he contin ued, the first gun at Fort Sumpter and hoped he should live long enough to lire the last.— (Ttemen- dous cheering ) In war we must expect occasional reverses—lately some had befallen ns—but with our people presenting one solid ftoui to the enemy, success must be ours. Heeouidnot believe theta was any so base as to bo a slave to the Yankee, and for himself he would say that he would worn r lay down his life, see his family perish, and his property lost forever than live under Yankee rule. (Euthusiastic applause.) «EN. HARDEE’S SPEECH. Amid loud cries for him, succeeded by cheers at his appearance, General Hardee proceeded to say he was (turning to the President) no orator as Brutus was (applause) and eould not , make much of a speech, nor did he take the warm welcome he had met, prefering to believe with General Beauregard, it was more the due of the gallant men he had so lately commanded.—Some curios- ity might be felt as to how things were going on at the front,, aud that curiosity, he having just come from there, he would endeavor to satisfy. The General then proceeded to give a resume of the operations attendant on the fall of Atlanta, and concluded by saying he had had a conversation with the General commanding a short time before his departure, in whch that officer told him that on Tuesday (to day) he hoped to lay his claws upon the State Road, and having onee fixed them there, it was not his intention to let them lose their hold. In closing. General Hardee also de clared it was not onr fault, only our misfortune, that at Jonesboro’we were unsuscessful, and that now, though few would think so, he cou d declare that Macon, Augusta and Montguuieny were far better covered by the present position of tiie army than before.

Commissioners’ Schedule of Prices. The late meeting of the Ccmmissioneis, under the Impressment Act, from ike States of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina ami Tennessee, in the city of Montgomery, will havo a most salutary effect, we hope, on the prices of produce and army supplies. They have establish ed it uniform schedule of prices tor the States, which considerably reduces the prices of leading articles of supplies in Georgia.

He re ports that General Ewing had concentrated his troops in front of the rebel position. The enemy planted a battery on Shepard Mount and were tbiowing shells into the fort, doing some execu tion. 1 he i edetal fo/ee under Colonel Uitla at Mir.e- eral Point were attacked last night by a largo body of rebels. The enemy were repulsed, but our troops subsequently withdrew to Desoto. Potosi was captured by the rebels last night — General Smith’s headquarters are still at Ponto, where he re receiving reinforcements. Gtn. tal Ewing was ordered to evacuate Pilot Knob, but the rebels cutlcs communications before he could get away. About twelve thousand militia arc upder arms, which, with the independent citr/.Oii companies, make quite a formidable torce.
