WASHINGTON, sept. 10.
The National Loan is succeeding beyond expec-
tation. Several hundred subscription agents
were appointed last week in nearly every loyal
State, Including Virginia and Kentucky A
considerable number have already accepted and
sent in their bonds. The others will probably
be all at work this week.
The subscriptions of the people have exceeded
nine million of dollars, and their patriotic CO.
operation will doubtless enable the banks to
take the second instalment of $50 ,0O0, 900 and
supply all the money needed for vigorous
but economical prosecution of the war The
Administration feels the Importance of justify,
ing by vlgor. economy and integrity the conf
dence manifested by the masses. Wasteful ex-
penditure and corrupt contracts by which alone
the security of the working men who invest
their earnings in the loan can DO impaired will
be vigorously repressed.
Mr.. Zasora the Spanish Minister, has called
to assure tho Secretary ofState that the report
from Charleston, that the Governor General of
Cuba has issued proclamation recognizing the
Rebel flag is untrue.
