not having the proper clearAuces from

it seems, are disposed to be lenient with

The tidings from the "Confederated
States of America" forbode trouble in the
military chest, from utI unwilliugness or
inability of the people to take up the IF
teen mil ion loan. The unstable ground
on which the Confederacy has been built,
acknowledging the right of States to Sc
Cede at pleasure and destroy the Govern
ment, has tigbtened the pUrSe-striugs Of
capitalists, and the people who have the
will to subscribe find their private affairs
so involved in the prostrdtion of all man
ner of business that they cannot attempt
to make permanent investments. II is
also well known that the great mass OF
the men of wealth in the Seeded States
were opposed to Secession. and still look
forward to q hope of reconstructieu hence

very liberal in their contributions The

The VIrrInIa Man Agen,s.

There is considerable DISQUALIFICATION in
Virginia at the appointment of several
new mail ngeut upon two or three mail
routes in that State, and several letters
have been addressed to the President and
Postmaster Blair, some of tkem very dis
respectful in style and language. One of
them atleast demanded the removal of the
mail or the mail agent. Under ordinary
circumstances the President would not
hesitate long rs to the course in such
cnse. The mail, not the mail agent
would be withdrawn. But under existing
Circumstances, to give no possible excuse
for complaint, the obnoxious men will be
withdrawn, and new ones, well known in
virginin, will be appointed in their places.
But NO seccssiOnist will lie retained so long
