THURSDAY lYIXOo, AUGUST M, iSU. Tn-PoroBTO JLbmisticb The tefefraph fare a brief account of theJong editorial of the New York Herald, proposing to Lincoln to offer an armistice of six TOcntbs, to be followed by a Convention of States with a view to p-ace. The Herald's own ar ticle, or at least the material portion of it, is now received, and proves to be only a war measure, a mere BcheO to get the advantage of the Confede racy, by continuing to hold such parts of our terri- tory as are now m -tnejr possession ana oy conun- uing the blockade, thus exhausting our means and resources, whUst they would, employ the period cl the armistice in preparing for the contest after its expiration. As evidence of the aim of the Herald, we copy the following paragraphs:. . : - , nen. wiereiorv. we urm ppoB wwi'"-"- unkiw w ate BBnotfaK. a4 -call cewveatica Of Statpx. we urge It as a war measnre, ab4 we regard it as the Iwstwar measure yet broneht forward." . CSuppow that the rebel leaders accepted the armistice an3 agreed to the Convention of States. In that event, the Union would either be restored or the war rewd. Accept the latteehypotbes's. and what tfcfnl Why we sboulfi resume the contest w'th armies reorganized and reinforced. The South on the contrary, would be weekened.

The Herald seems to be quite sure that a Conven tion of States would result in a restoration of the Union a result which is clearly impossible and goes on to Bketch a programme of other wars into which the country is thereupon tobe plunged. Hear it: ; . . ! . - "With a restored Union, prosperity would oiks more bless the land. If any bed blood remained on either side it would soon disappear, or be pmrged lv m foreign wor. With combined veteran army of over a mil J Ion of mn, and a fleet more powerful than that cf any European power, we could ordr France from Mexico, England froi Caanda, and pin from Cuba, and enforce our orcs if they were not obeyed.

"We would much rs.tb.cr fight the malignant yankees who have done us a thousand fold more wrongs than ever France and Soglacd and Spain have done. PxAca Stmftoms. A correspondent of the New York Herald, writing from Bedford Springs, P.enn., comnlaina bitterlv that a derided maioritv of the guests at the Springs are seceusfonfstaby lood and sympathy, and that they browbeat and misuse th loyal minority. They had a ball on Lincoln's Fast "Day, by way of showing fiontempt foTuWr : - The New York Tribune, says that Wro-thirds of the Democrats of b free States are manifesting open and deadly hoetiEty to the further prosecution of the war. They take the side of the rebels with regard to exrhanges, killing negro soldiers, army de vastations, and almost or quite everything else. Three-fourtbs of the Democratic journals we open would be read with i delight in .Lee s camps by all who can read at all. The; oppose the draft; they discourage invertmcnta in the National loans; they magnify etcry Union reverse and belittle every Union euccee?. rf.ving the mass of their readers to understand ijhat Jeff. Davis is fighting for Union and Liberty, against tbe usurpations and atrocities of be Lincoln. Tney clamor for peace, protest against the further prosecution of tbe war as useless butch ery and denounce the increased taxes as iniquitous and "oppressive." . On Lincoln's Fast Day a "Peacer Flag," with a white ground, and a dove in the centre; was raised on the Cooper Institute, bearing an inscription, "Peace on Earth; Good Will towards Men." ' When an advocate of peace raised it he was told that a mob would pull it down; but it floated alt day no mob mojested it, but it was greeted with evident signs of satisfaction. At night it graced the stage Of the Institute when Lindley Spring, Esq. delivered a Peace Lecture. YIkkib Dxsxbtkks The difficulty of disposing of yankee deserters, real or pretended, has so affect ed their treatment within our lines as no doubt very greatly to diminish their number. To allow them to go at larsre, or to put them in the service as sol diers Or workmen, was but to hold out inducements to- spies to come among ua, get information, and carry it away to. the enemy. They hawe therefore usually been committed to prison, where they Were a useless burden upon cur government. At last a very ju dicious plan has been adopted of sending them out of the country, by which we get rid of t their support and at the same time deprive Lincoln of their seryi--coe as soldiers." It wiU be recollected that some months ago the yankee goyemment caused Lincoln's proclama - tion offering pardon to those who would lay down their arms to be sprinted and circulated among .our troops. We believe that the expected desertions from this movement were never realised, for our peo ple are fighting for their rights and property, which they are not apt to abandon. It is different with the yankee. army, which is made up in large part of foreigners who have no interest in the matter, no rights and property to fight for, and who were in very many cases kidnapped ioto the service when drunk. Our government has wisely addressed ''Gen eral Order No. 65" to all auch, offering to receive protect and supply them with subsistence until such of them as desire it can be forwarded to some con venient point on tbe border, from which they may return to their homes. The example of the yankees should be followed by circulating this General Order throughout their camps a measure which would have been disgraceful if tbey had not resorted to it first. We think that in this way a vast increase in the desertions may be secured, aided by the constant wnrppings and terrible slaugnter tne yanxeea are experiencing. - , . Dbsbbtxrs CArToaKD. -Some dozen or two' of deserters have been captured and sent through this place to the army within tha past week or two.

From which we nasi infer , that England does not consider Richmond the capital of a nation. Never mind, a day of reckoning will come. Thb Militia.

"They have fought Eke veterans. - Their conduct in battle has elicited the warmest approba tion of the commanding ' General And even this battle-scarred soldiers, the heroes of a hundred fights, have been struck with admiration by their cool, unflinching valor." Something of this is doubt less owing to the fact that they art commanded by Gen. G.

Hereafter we shall study them mora tloaelr. We beg, however, to suggest, that when Gen. M. agala whips two corps with two brigades, his dispatch would not be considered at all prolix if it mentioned the little circumstance Rickmo4 Wktg. Perhaps the General's reticence may be explain able: It was only North Carolina Brigades, or rather one .Brigade, (Lane's,) and small portions of two others, that whipped the two corps, and killed and captured more than their own number. It is not even pretended that Gen. Mahone was present ia persoa at the fight. If. it had been the troops of any other State, especially of Virginia, or if Gen. Mahone had led them, would not the country have been ringing with the gallantry of the deed! We believe that the Whig has not, any more than Gen. Mahone, or in deed any Richmond paper except the Enquirer aad the "Dispatch, (the latter very briefly,) yet stated what treops i was that did this work.- The General falls into the habit of the North Carolina troops of award them their due praise; and what is every body's I boaa gully of capital (akales against the Uvea aad pro business is of course nobody's, not eves the General's.

As no newspaper has a right to claim anybody's "patronage," so all should feel themselves too independent to ask it either by direct applica- j tion or undignified cOmp!ain Such is the present ! attitude of the Baleigh Standard and its echo. Time has been when the Standard for years enjoyed a mono poly of National and State patronage; it never then complained of this aa unjust. The Observer, with a circulation always about equal to the Standard's, never had such patronage and never sought it, and would have felt a sense of degradation wt the idea oi complaining that it was not given to 'it," The presg is a power in the State just so long as it .chooses to 1 maintain its true status; but becomes eoatemptibla when it whines after patronace.. rrowls when tha bone is not bestowed, aad wage its tail whea it is.
