BRE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. ry ———_—_ | JEFF. DAVIS' MESSAGE: | | More Men, Twe Mil urther ence Cenference—The last ho; settlement by means of a Peace ence Destroyed. | Richmozd papers, containing a messaRe of Jeff. Davis to the rebel Congress, have — received. The message is gloomy in the ex-— qfeme, and calls upon Congress to furnish at once material, men and money to relieve them from their peril. Troops must be raised, he says, by & more vigorous conscription, and every means ap- plied for increasing their army. With meal at $50 per bushel and flour at $700 per barrel, they ‘were flooding the country with turrercy which they could never redeem, and destroying the confidence of the people, and he insists that Gongress must, without delay, secure two millions of dollars in gold. | He aico states in relerence to the late peace conference at Fortress Monroe, that upon as- certaining that the United States Government would rot confer with the Confederate Gov- | ernment or any of the Uontederate States upon the subject of peace, it was proposed by the Richmond commissioners to hold a conference of the military commanders of both armies, and that after the return ot Messrs. Stephens, Hunter and Oampbel!, Gen. Ord senta com- manication by flag of truce to Gen. Longstreet intumating that such a conference might be held. This communication was referred to Gen. Lee, who addressed a letter 10 Gen. Grant, inform- ing bim that he was authorized to treat for | peace, receiving, in reply, 8 communication | stating thac he (General Grant) had noanthor- | ity to confer with the Confederate ofncerson | ADy evbject except military matters. This, Davis says, destroys the jast hope of a settle- | ment of the difficulty by means of peace con- | ferences, and he urges that Congress should | take some vigorous action without delay to | avert their impending calamities. The question of arming the negroes is briefly Feterred to, the message simply stating that the | efficacy of the measure had been greatly im- paired by the delays of Congress. Davis urges tne suspension of the writ of Aabeas corpus, and asks to be invested with ab- | solute power, claiming it to be an unavoidable necessity in order to conduct the affairs of the | Contederacy; in fact, virtually demanding to be mage dictator. ORDERED TO THE FRONT. Major General George L. Hartsuff, recently on court-martial duty in New York, has been ordered to report in person to Lieutenant Gen- eral Grant, and has left for the front. It will gratify the numerous friends of General Hart- | suff to know that bis valuable services will be | given to the country in the grand finel cam- paign. | SANITARY SUPPLIES, No more sanitary supplies will be sent to Wilmington or Newbern, N. C., at present. ‘There is quite a large stock on hand there—it is believed sufficient to supply any demand that nay arise while the base of operations is | in that State, which is not expected to be long. GErMAN OpeRA.—Owing to the illness of one of the artists last night, the opera of « Mi- Treille” was not performed. “Martha,” how- ever, was substituted, with Carl Formes in his | ereatrole of Plunkett, and meta most flacter- | ing reception by the audience. To-night, | + Faust,” with Hermann in his unrivalled im- | personation of «« Mephistophiles.” | Dry Goops Avctions.—The sales to day Were noticeable for another terrible siaughier, especially of domestics. The sale at Wilmer- dings & Mount’s surpassed anything in the | ‘way of depression seen since the war. The Prices obtained were scarcely one-half what they have been. The attendance could only be called a multitude assembled to witness the massacre of cotton goods. A good many du- plicates were esgerly obtained at the sac: ficing rates. The sale was for cash.—JN. ¥. Commercial, 17th. SYMPATHISING WITH REBEL PRisoners.— During the passage of a large number of rebel prisoners through our city yesterday, Miss | Grace and Miss Jane George, residing No. 162 Nerth Howard street, were arrested by érder of Lieut. Houston, of the provost guard, | charged with attempting to affurdopen sym- | pathy to the rebels. Miss Grace attempted to force the guard and hand toa prisoner a hand- kerchief.

Mysterious Movements ef the Enemy— Visit ef Secretary Stanten Information from the Army of the Potomac shows that our trocps are in the best possible condition, and are ready to move at any time occasion may require. Rumors continue to prevailin camp that the rebels contemplate evacuation. On Thursday pnd Friday the enemy along the centre of the line were very busy moving troops from point to point, at one timé massing at one place, and in a short time thereafter at another, thus ne- cessitating the utmost watchfalness og our entire line. Secretary Stanton, accompanied by his wite and several other ladies arrived at headquar- ters Thorsday afterneon, and soon after pro- ceeded to the left of the line, where the Fiftn Corps were reviewed by him and Gen. Meade. The party returned to Uity Pointona special train, whence they would soon start for Wash- ington. ss FROM THE FRONT. Preparations for Battle—A Tornade—Great Explés: near Petersburg. The steamer City Point, Uapt. Tolbert, ar- rived here this morning from City Point, with the mails and passengers. She reports the roads drying rapidly, and much activity existing in the army. All the sutlers haye been sent to the rear, and the surplus baggage of the officers is being sent to City Point for storage. Many of the sutlers had Iaid in large stocks, anticipating heavy sales tothe troops, whe are now flush with greenbacks, having recently been paid off. Allday Wednesday and Thuraday the rebels Were in active motion in front of the 9th corps. Camps {were struck within their iines and large bodies of troops conld be seen from our signal stations to be moving toand fro. They kept up an unusually bold front, at timescom- pletely swarming Cemetery Hill with men, and frequently opening upon our troops with eannop, which was promptly replied to. It ‘was believed that they were endeavoring to hide the evacuation of Petersburg, from waich allthe people have been ordered away, as heretofore intimated, for the purpose of talling back to their new line of works on the nortk side of the Appomatox, with their right resting on the Lynchburg road. Thursday night a severe storm prevailed at the front, which blew down tents, uprooted trees, &c. A number of men of the 37th Wis- consin regiment were killed and wounded by the falling trees. A heavy explosion topk place on Thursday, which shook the boats on the James and Appo- mattox rivers. It appeared to be in the direc. tiun of Petersburg, and it was reported at Uity Point that it was occasioned by an attempt of the rebels to blow up Fort Hell, which bad been previously evacuated by our troops, knowing that the rebels had undermined it. Senator Wilson and lady, who went down to City Point with the excursion party which lett here a few days ago, came up from Fortress Monroe on the mail boat as passengers, PERSONAL.—Vice President Johnson is st in Washington, stopping with Francis P. Bla Sr. He will return soon to Tennessee to settie up his business as Military Governor, and also to be present at the inanguration of Goy Brownlow. SaLEes OF SEVEN-THIRTIES.—The sales og seven-thirties by Jay Cooke & Co. amounted to $6,091,200 y THE MESSAGE OF JEFF. DAVIS. ln the message of Jeff. Davis to the Confed- erate Congress, on the 13th instant, (noticed in our first edition,) he says amongst other things showing the desperate strait of the rebels: ‘The capital of the Confederate States is now threatened, and ia in greater danger than it has heretofore been during the war. The fact is stated without reserve or concealment, as dune to the people, whose servants we are, and in whose courage and constancy entire trast is reposed: as due to you in whose wisdom and resolute spirit the people have confided,for the adoption of the measures required to guard them from tbreatened peril.” * + * “I have heretofore, inaconfide' message to the two Houses, stated the fact. ¢hict in- duced me to consider it necessn.y that the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus should be suspended. The conviction of the necessity of this measure bas become deeper &s the ¢ vents of the struggle have been developed. Congress has not concyrred wifh meir opinion It is my duty to say that the time has arrived whe the suspension of the writ isnotsimply advisa- ble and expedient, but almost indispensable to the successful conduct of the war. On Congress must rest the responsibility of declining to ex- ercise a power conferred by the constitution as @ means of public safety to be used in periods of national peril resulting from foreign inva- sion. If our present circumstances are not euch as were contemplated when this power was conferred, I contess myself at a loss te imagine any contingency in which this clause of the constitution will not remain a dead let- ter. « Witb the prompt adoption of the measures above recommended, and the united and hear- ty co-operation of Congress and the people iu the execution cf the laws and defence of the country, we may enter upon the present cam- paign with cheerful confidence in the result. And whe can doubt tie continued existence of that spirit and fortitude in the people, and of that constancy under reverses which alone are needed to render our triumph secure! What other resource remains available but the undying, unconquerable resolve to be free. It has become certain, beyond all doubt or ques- tion, that we must continue this struggle toa successful issue, or must make abject and un- condi'ional submission tosuch terms agit shail please the conqueror to impose on us after our surrender. If a possible doubt could exist af- ter the conference between our commissioners and Mr. Lincoln, as recently reported to you, it would be dispelled by a recent occurrence, of which itis proper that you should be in- formed. “Congress will remember that in the confer- ence above referred to our commissioners were informed that the Government of the United States would not enter idto any agreement or treaty whatever with the Confederate States, nor with any single State; and that the only ossible mode of cbtaining peace was by lay- ing.down our arms, disbanding our forces and yielding unconditional obedience te the laws of the United States, inclading those passed for the confiscation of our property, and the constituticnal amendment fer the abolition of slavery. It will further be remembered that Mr. Lincoln declared that the only terms on which hostilities would cease were those stated in his message of December last, in which we were informed that in the event of our pertinent submiasion, he would temper justice with mercy; and that the question ‘whether we would be governed as dependent territories or permitted to have a represenja- tion in their Congress was one on which he could promise nothing, bat which wonld be decided by their Congress after oursubmission bad been accepted. “It has net, however, been hitherto stated to you that, in the course of the conference at Fortress Monroe, 8 suggestion was made by one of our commissioners that the objections entertained by MrrLincoln to treating with the government of the contederacy or with any separate State might be avoided, by substituiing for the usual mode of negotiating through com- missioners or other diplomatic agents, the methcd sometimes employed of a military con- yention to be.entered into by the Commanding Generals of the armies of ihe two belligerents. This he admitted was a power pessessed by him, though it was not thought commensnrate with all the questions involved. As he did not accept the suggestion when made, he was afterwards requested to reconsider his concla- sion upon the subject of a ipension of hés- tilities, which he agreed to do, but said that he had masnsely considered of the plan, and had determined that it could not be done. “Subsequently, however, an interview with Gen. Longstreet was asked for by Gen. Ord, commanding the enemy's army ef the James, daring which Gen. Longstree, was informed by him that there was a possibility of arriving ata satisfactory Adjastment of the present uo- happy difficulties by means of a muitary con- vention, and that if Gen Loe desired an inter- view on the sthject, it wonld not be declined, provided Gen. Had anthority toact This communication was supposed to be the conse- uence of the suggestion above referred to, and en. Lée, according to instrnctions, wrote to Gen. Grant on the 2d of this month, proposing rjeo' bat he was vested with the requisite Gen. ergs cer stated that he actede to the proposed con- bor! ference, that “f extended only to mak- ing acon n Om subjects purely of a mili- tary.obaracter, and that Gen. Ord could only bavé meant that an int@rview would not be re‘used on any subject of which he, Gen. Grant, had the right t act. + It thu appears that meither with the (ion- fecernte authorities, nor the antnorities of any State, nor through the commanding generals, will the Govern it of the United States treat or make any terms or agreement whatever for the cessation of hostilities. There remains, then, for us no choice but to continue this con- test to final.issue; for the ple of the Uon- federacy can be but little jown to him who supposes it possible they would gyer consent to’ purchase, at the cost ef de; ation and slavery, permission to Ifvein a country g&rri- soned by their own negroes, and governed by officers sent by the conquerer to rule over them.” THE REMARES OF VEN PRESIDENT JOHN: There have been various statements to the ef- fect thatthe remarks of Vice President Joun- son made in the Senate, on the occasion of be- ing sworn into office had been, or would be, “guppressed” in the official report, but we find it in yesterday's Globe published in the regular order of the proceedings. As the public idea of his address on that oc_ casion has been gathered mainly from detached sentences picked out by letter-writers to make up & piquant report and which do not rea'ly giver 1 idea cf the address as a whole, we pub- lish it entire as subjoined: The Vice President elect, (Hon. Andrew John- son, ot Tennessee,) said :—Senators: I am here to-day as the chosen Vice President of the Uni- ted States, and as such, by constitutional pro- vision 1 am made the presiding officer of this bedy. I therefore present myseli here in obe- dience to the high behests of the American peo- ple to discharge a constitutional duty, and not Fresumptuousiy to thrust myself in & position so exalted. May I at this moment—it may not be irrelevant to the occasion—advert to the workings of eur institutions under the Consti- tution which our fathers framed and Washing- ton approved, a8 exbibited by the position in which I stand before the American Senate, in the sight of the American people? Deem me not vain or arrogant; yet I should be less than man if under such circumstances I were not prond of being an American citizen,for to-day one who claims no high descent, one who comes from the ranks of the people, stands, by the choice of a free constituency, in the second place in this Government. There may be those to whom such things are not pleasing, but those who have labored for the consummation of a free Government will appreciate and cherish institutions which exclude nope, however ob- scure his origin, from places of trustfand dis- tinction. The people, in short, are the source of all power. You, Senators. you who consti- tute the bench of the Sapreme Court of the United States, are but the creatures of the American people; your exaltation is from them; the power of this Government consists in its nearness and approximation to the great mass ot the people. You, Mr. Secretary Seward, Mr. Secret:ry Stanton, the Secretary of the Navy, and the others who are your ssseci- ates—you know that you have my resp and my confidence—derive not yeur greatuess and your power alone from President Liacoln. Humble as I am, plebeian as I may be deemed, permit me in the presence of this brilliant assemblage to enunciate the truth that courts and cabinets, the President and his advisers, derives their power and their greatness from the people. A President could not exist here forty-eight hours if he were as far re. moved from the people as the autocrat of Rus- sia is separated from his subjects. Here the popular heart sustains President and Cabinet oflicers; the popular will gives them ail their efength. Such an assertion of the great prin- ciples of this Government may be considered out of p'ace, and I wili not consume the time of these intelligent and enlightened people much longer: butI could not be insensible to these creat truths when I,a plebeian, elected by the people the Vice President of these Uni- ted States, am here to enter upon the discharge of my duties. For those dutics I claim not thé aptitude of my respected predecessor. Al- though I have occupied a sea. in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, I am not learned in parliamentary law, and I shall be dependenton the courtesy of those Senators who have become familiar with the ruies which are requisite for the good order of the body and the dispatch ofits business. I have only studied how I may best advance the interests of my State and of my country, and not the technical rnles of ord@r: and if LerrIsbhall appeal to this dignified body of representatives of States for kindness end indulgence. Refcre I conclude this brief inaugural address in the presence of this audience—and 1, though a plebeian boy, 4m authorized by the principles of the Government under which I live to feel proudly conscious thet 1am a man, and graye digni‘aries are but men—before the Supreme Court, the representatives of foreign Govern- ments, Senators andthe people, desire to pro- claim that Tennessee, whose representative I bave been, is free. She has bent the tyraut's rod, she has broken the yoke of slavery, and to-day she stands redeemed. She waited not for the exercise of power by Congress; it was her own act, and she is now as loyal, Mr. At- torney General, as is the State from which you came. Itis the doctrine of the Federal QGon- stitution that no State caw go outof this Union; and moreover Congress cannot eject a State from this Union. Thank God, Tennessee never been ont of the Union! as It is trne the operations of her government was for a time interrupted; there was an interregnum; but she is stillin the Union, and I am her repres- entative. Thisday she elects her Governor and her Legislature, which will be convened on the first Monday of April, and again her Senators and Representatives willsoon mingle witb those of her sister States; and who shall gainsay it, for the Constitution requires that to every State shall be guarantied a republican form of government? I now am prepared to take the oath of office and renew my allegiance tothe Constitution of the United States? LOCAL NEWS. . — <> Navy YARp—Arvival of the Montauk (Mon- ttor).—The monitor Montauk, which was re- cently engaged at Fort Fisher, and struck by over two hundred shot, was towed up as far 4s Alexandria last evening by the Juniper, (of the Potomar Flotilla,) Capt. Sheridan, and the tug-boat Young America, and she will be towed up to the yard to-day, where her guns will be exchanged for 15-inch ones, and some slight repairs made to her turret and machinery. Last evening 8 draft of about 200 sailors ar- rived at the yard frem New York, and to day they are on their way to the flotilla, the King Phillip, Capt. Frank, takiag them. The Juniper brings no news from the lower river, other than the prevalence of the smail- pox on tae Uieur de Lion, Capt. Morris, which is now lying at quarantine below St. Inigoes. Nearly all the officers and’crew have had a touch of this disease, anda few of the men have died.

Nickerson. There are at present six double engines in progress of construction at the yard, affording work to alarge number of hands. Tne ma- chinists, under Mr. George R. Wilson, now number nearly 250 men—a larger number than has ever been employed before at any time— and the work is fully up to the high standard of the best work in the country, and it will be done in time to place in the new vessels now being built. The iron founders have just cast a large condenser for one of these engines, which is regarded as a fine piece of casting. It weighs over twelve tons, and was cast under the direction of master founder Bland.

GREEN & WILLIAM, Aucta., Affair Pustro Sorvoots. istribe Fad Mers.—YVesterdny, in Souspiiane in te av er of the of Guardians, the two pri- mary schools under the instruction of Miss Hannah and Mrs. E A. Ijams, met in the school Bouse at the junction of High and Market streets, for the purpose of witnessing the dis- tribution of cards to ritorious scQolars in these schools. The building is well adapted for school par. Externally the building is an ornam to that section of the town, and the cleanliness Of the interior and the care taken of the excel. lent school furniture, are highly creditable to the ladies in whose care the schools are placed as well as to the guardians, who exhibited excellent jadgment in the selection of a site, the adoption of the plan of the building, and ia providing the furniture. The Board ot Guardians was Fopresented by G. W. Beall, Esq, President, Df. Cragin, a. Hyde, W.C. Magee, Joba Marbury, Jr., and W.L. Dunlop, Esq., and among the visitors we noticed Jenkin Thomas and W. H. Oraig, of the Common Council After some well performed exercises ta read- ingand vocal music, the cards of merit were distributed to scholars of the male school. By the rale of the Board the ratio was one card to one of every six scholars, and the tal- lowing Were named 8s the meritorious ones :— Willie Sword, Willie French, Albert Small, David W. McNair, Gustave Nedormins&! Henry Small. James Sword, Frank French, Eddié Hule, and Onarles McKeever Dr. Cragin, with 8 few appropriate remarks to the children, urging them to cherish those testimonials of their conduct, distributed tl cards to the little fellows, who exhibited much Bdeasure upon theoccasion. Then follewed some more musical exercises, concluding the programme tor the male school. The programme for tbe female school was then entered upon, commencing with reading and musical exercises, atter which the Presi- dent snnouneed the distribution. The number of cards toe be distributed was eleven, but almost all the young ladies of the schoo! merit a card, and so, after selecting the eleven to re- ceive the cards, & number were designated for honorable mention, viz:—For cards—Alice Dixon, Margaret Biincoe, Mary Small, Ella Sullivan, Sarah R. Sullivan, Bertie Allen, Kate Fletcher, Sally R. Ritter, Clandia Dixon, Mattie Beall, and Mary Dana. Honorabiy mentioned:—Mary ©. Goodman, Lavra Marcy, Lizzie Fletcher, Amelia Halse, Emma Keiser, Mary Johnson, Charlotte D. Tracy, Anna Harrison, Anna Alien, Anna Koarman, Johanna Collins, Alice Collins, Anna Thoma: Laura Thomas, Julia Hough, Mary E. Adam- son, Susannah Davis, Sarah Goldstein, Alize Burdette, Ciara Chamberlain, lda Chamber- Jain, Sarah Payne. The cards were distributed by Jenkin Thomas, Eeq., with a few appropriate re- marks to each of the recipients. The musical exercises were then resumed, and the programme, by request, was concluded with the «Lord's Prayer,’ chanted by both schools. The music was under the direction of Prof. Daniel, musical instructor of the schools: A. Hyde, Esq., presiding at the melo- deon. The company retired highly pleased with the entertainment. Tue CAnaL.—The canal has been repaired to Dam No. 4, 55 miles from Georgetown, aad last night the water was let into Georgetown di- vision, opehing navigation to all the depots within that distance. A rumor is abroad which has a color of truth, that the aqnedact at Ccnococheague Creek has been already trunked and made passable for boats from above. This is the aqueduct seid by the oficial informant of a Baltimore paper, to be 2 feet high, bat which is abont 30 feet high from the water to the top of the parapet. Bf this ramorts cerrect it re-opens the way to the oanal trade, as the trnnk 1s large enough for the passage of the boats, and at the same time leaves the masons ample opportunities to repair the stone work. The boats at the depots above have cut loose, and are now eoming down. One boat, the McCullough, iaden with wood, arrived this morning. The boats arriving are principally Government boats, light. Tue Riyrr’—The water in the river is high and the current rapid. The drift wood indi- «ates bigh water ip the western tributaries of the Potemac, but the high water causes nv@in- easiness on account of the canal or to the mer- chants here.
