Without the sanction of their Government.

you on tTia su'ject of your mission, with
the promise of a like address from him.
This correspondence shall go to the
public, and v;iH find its way to the country,-a
class of the citizens of which yon
claim to represent. It will, perhaps, int?-r
flit the Govornment and the soi disant
"loyal men" there to know, under the
sanction of your name, that th? "leadinjr
anti-slavery men in America"~are nronared
to negotiate with the authorities of tho
j Confederate States (or n restoration of
peace ?nd ihp independence of the South,
I on a pledge liiat the Abolitionists and
nnti-nlavcry leaders of the Northern States
shall immediately oppose the further prosecution
of the war on the part of the United
States Government, and nince thoy hold
the balance of power, will certainly causa
the war to cense, by the immediate withdrawal
ot' every kind of support fronfit.
As some reward, however, for ibis interesting
disclosure, your inquiry whether
the Confederate States will content, to
emancipation on the terras stated, shall not
go wholly unanswered. You may lie assured,
(hen, and perhaps it may bo of val
ue to your constituents to assure thoni,
that the Noriliern S':?t*s will n^ver be in

nor will t!io Southern States ever be in
