OUR CAss ExAcTLY.-The Petersburg Va, Express furnishes the following sensible talk to newspapers correspondent, which suits our case exactly: ''One word to very numerous class of individuals in this little Southern Con- federacy of ours. We allude to those who, through great kindness, occupy three end four pages of foolscap to nominate some friend for place of honor and emolument, and then forward to us with the invariabe remark, presuming that you need something to fill up your valuable paper,' etc We do not wish any assistance whatever in filling up.' The truth is, we have more than enough to fill up' every day, and our foreman is puzzled every night to decide what articles will lose most
 in interest by delay. All nominations of friends to office, obituary notices, and indirect puffs to individuals who never gave Us cent for advertising or anything else, must be paid for They are never needed to fill up.' We wish this distinctly understood"
