In our last issue, wc published the. rebel overtures of peace, sent to cettain North ern Democrats by Dr. Harney. It may be a ((mod of the first water, but wc arc in- t-nneti to iicnevc mere is some mini in it. The declarations of Harney, corroborated by the public assertion of the infamous Wood, give them tho semblance of truth. Then the persons to whom they are sent is another corroborating ciioumslance. We would naturally expect that such overtures would be made to such persons. " Hy gones are to bo by-gones ;" " a general am nesty for civil nnd military rebels is to be proclaimed ;" nnd the Government of the United States is to "assume the rebel war debt ;" and then all will be well again ! 'I'inlfi linn 1t1im-.il unit frmiii-iiia io il lint 9 iiiij I. uv., iitiimi mm (iiiiiivn.i, in i. ..... . Do the rebel sympathisers out this way nc cept? Speak out, gentlemen, and let us "know. You have been bawling for pence until you arc hoarse, und now, how do you like the proposition 1 And then, if wc tin--derstnnd you aright, you are slightly op posed to co much taxation ! How would you like to thribble it ? While you pay a littlo federal tax, would it be solacing to pay it good deal Confederate? How do you like the idea of not only letting the bur glur go free, but of remunerating him for his time, expense and trouble, in breaking into your house? This is a progressive age! What next? lint while we may bo in doubt ns to the action of the sympathisers on tho proposi tion submitted to them by their " Southern brethren," their is a point on which wc nrc dciir: Uncle Abe's proclamation litis com menced to work ! 1 f this rebels go on, they loose- ell. They never were in greater straits than now. Their entire coast, with the exception of two isolated spots, is in the possession of I lie Federals. They are walled in on every side with gleaming bay onets and floating iron-clnds. Their flnnnces nrc disordered, and their supplies decreas ing. The tiecessark'8 of life nrc nt starva tion prices. They have exhausted their en ergies, and urc now staggering under the weight of their accumulated difficulties. In the meantime, the First of January ap proaches a day big with interest a his toric day. That tho Government will sup . jiress this rebellion is a moral certainly. The rebels know and feel it 5 und wc doubt not but that they lire anxious to extricate themselves from the consequences of their '.nadness, und yet preserve slavery. Hut, bow to do it ? is the question. We expect to eco nti effort mudu by them and their northern sympathisers for a cessation of! hostilities, and an extension of the time for emancipation to go into effect, so that the " institution " may be saved. Ye who talked so flippantly about the proclamation being of no eU'ect, what think yo of the signs of the times ? The rebels laughed when the proclamation was issued, but they do not seem to be so mirthful now. PlCKINO W THK PkKSWKNT's Ol.D C1.0TUF.S. Nothing is more couimon than to henr men who are opposed to the Pre sident's Emancipation Proclamation tri umphantly talking about the Pope's issu ing a " Hull aguinst the comet." The quoted words are part of a question ad dressed by the President to tho Chicago del egation previous to the issuing of his cele brated Emancipation Proclamation. The question is a characteristic one, and was o'sked more to receive their solution to a dif!R6ult question, than to indicate any con viction of his mind in the affirmative. If the question indicated a' doubt in'lhe mind f .lie President, hia subsequent action iimnii t I altows that that doubt was rcmovcU. The President (ioes not say that nti emdnclpd Hon proclamation lasted by hlrh wotild bo as futile us tho " Pope's bull Against the cornel." Nor does tho question, taken in connection with his subsequent proelnrnn lion, show n chnncc of mind. Let us illus trate: Our friend " O " moy, nfler n full investigation of nil the chances, have made np his mind to invest 510,000 in a certain i ..i. .:..

IHTIMI(J HIS II II Mil J I "II (lie street, nnd having confidence in his financial ability, and wishing for various purposes to ascertain his reasons for or against the investment, might nsk him the question, " Do you not think, sir, that it would be n dangerous investment ?" This question would give no indication of the convictions of the. person asking it. Jf he should subsequently invest, would it be proof that he hud clmngrd his mind on the policy or justness ol the speculation? t is a little remarkable, that tho best argu ments used against Lincoln's Proclamation arc made out of old, icomont intellectual clothes. MvsTimious J')i.Ai'i'KAi.Nct:. "Win. M. Kvans, of Hrowntown, Josephine county, under date of 7th Inst., has sent us the fol lowing for publication : " Georgo M. Corn wall, nn old expressman, well known ns 'Portland George,' has mysteriously disap peared. The last that was seen of him was upon Althottio Creek, in the afternoon of November 21st, near the claim of Trimby & Co. He is supposed to hive ntlemptcd to cross the mountain to Waldo, and, be coming lost, perished during the cold nights of Hint period. A fruitless search has been made for him. Any inlormntinn of him would be thankfully received here. Mr. Cornwall was from Portland, Maine, nnd had Wen an expressman here ever since 18r2." Kxi'KNMTl'UKS OK TIIK GOVKUXMKNT.

Wc con stantly hear them talking about tho Gov ernment running into debt nt the rate of live millions per day. Will they correct their assertions by the publication of the fads ? To usk the question is to answer it. Truth is not their forte ; figures not their study. " CutTee" is their theme " Abolitionists" their hobby. Stand from under and let the worshippers of " Ouflee" pass by ! Tin: Puw.io Dkiit. Mr. Chase Srcre Inry of the Treasury, in n letter to Hon. Sam. H. Walley, President of Iho Rev. ero Hank, in Hoslon, snys that the public debt on tho 7th of October, 18C2, was 6010,000,000. This is much less than gen erally supposed by Union men even.
