UNWRITTEN WAR HISTORY. A Proclamation that It fs Sald President Lincoln Prepared, but Never Issned. Washington Letter to Neo Fork Sun (Dem.), 1o the dark and uncertain daya preceding the outbreak of the Rebellion, there was much donbt In the mind of Mr. Lincola regarding the disposition of the people north of the recog- nized dividing line between freedom and slavery to sustain sggressive measures for the preservs- Uon of the Unfon. Btate after State had seceded, and no demonstration had been made at the Nurth to counteract the force of such movements st the South. On the cootrary, there were publle men who openly advocated & division of the Union into such parts as would it geographical lines and their own Intereata and ambition, Notabiy, Mr. Hendricks favored a Northwesiern Confederacy; some New Yorkers saw In the coufusion of the times an uyporulnll.y to make their city the Venico of America; and _some Californisns thought a Republic on the Pacific,iwith Ban Frandisco for its commercial and political Capitsl, would de- velop into niighty proportions before the end of the century. (forace Greeley had advocated in the Tvilune pesceable separation, and boldly proclaimed: ~*Let the erring sisters 10 in ace.” ‘The Indlanspolis Journal in the Wost, [napired by an ambition to *take a position,” occupied thessme ground. The Northern States seut Peace Cominissioners to Wasbington Lo plead with the Bouth for a pesceable sotution of the ditliculties and s maintenance of the Unlon. ‘The Government under Mr. Buchanan did nothing to repress the military preparations making in the South, and when Mr. Lincoln was fnsugurated there werc nine States defytog his authiority, sud ready for war, His Administra- tion hat s most formidable opposition tn the two remaluing Bates that seceded, and in those also that attempted to do so. 11 upport st the North, In the event of war, he regarded as uncertatn, sud anarchy appesred fnevitabie. Ia this coudition of affairs, Commisstoners ap- pointed by Gov. Plekens, of Bouth Carolina, ap- pearud on the scene, and throug Judge Camp- bell, then late of the Bupreme Court, who bad restimed on the secession of Loulsians, com- menced 8 negutiation for the surreader to that Btate of the Government forts and property within s Jimits, The Cummissioncrs were also aldued by Dr. Todd, of Kentucky, a brother of Mrs. Lincoln, who was io harmony with the viewn aud actious of the South Carolinlans, He wus 8 temporary habitant at the White fouse, atd acyulred tuformation fo & private way that nu one tould bave obtatucd 1o an otlicial capaci- ty, atd which wus made use of as time and clr- cimstanves required. ‘I'te nexotiatious of Bouth Carolina with the Government failed, nol breause of an indlanosition to eotestala the proposition submitted, but on acount of the precipitate action of South Carolina troups in bombaniiog Fort Sumter. This made & pesces- big dissolution of the Union a matter of fnpos- sibility nud wer au fuevitsble necessity. Whilc these nevotiations were peuding, bow- ever, & oroclamaton hud been prepared recog- Dz the fact of the secesalon of certain States, and virtually acknowledging thetr independence, surrenderior b them atuted powers of the Gen- e Guvernment over property and places within their limits, and guaranteeiog them reaceable posseasion of the sswe ou conditions specitiod. This proclamation hed the sanction of Mr, Wade of Ollo, avd was in accordsnce with Mr. Greeley's frequently expressed views., With the appearance of the prociamation was tu be an editorial 1 the Washington and New York papers sustaining the actiou of the Ad- miuistrstion. ‘This was also prepared snd held ready for use when the oceasfon demanded L But the action at Fort Sumter changed all this, aud & proclamuation was issued {nstesd 1or 75,000 men for three months to suppress rebellion; aud waur was thus secepted by an un- willing Government sud people. The proclamstion calling fur troops s s mat- ter of hustory; that previously prepared luok- ing 1o peace Is wot, sud Its existence muss ba sroved from other sources than officixl records. ‘he cvidence on which it rests s the following statemant: Mr. A, T.

Pickens to Mr. Cavis, and by the Jatter published o his paper, the South Carulina (uardn 1o the burnjug of Columbla by Sherinan’s troops the oftice snd flles of tho Guardian were destroyed, sud there s no copy of the paper cxtant coutaining these documents.
