Of the United States and the present con-
tractors, until II assumes the entire control
1T its postal affairs, This courscis render
cd necessary by the utter impnericability
Of mixing the employees of thctwo govern
mcnts in the same service.
The question ms to whether the Govern
mcnt of the Confederate States will assume
any liability to present contractors before
il assumes the control of our postal affairs,
involves the idea of liability, on the part
VI this government, for the obligations Of
tho United States, which cannot be enter
tanned by this department. But il the gov
crnlnent Of the United States should aban-
don the mail service in the Confederate
States, before the Department shall be or
ganized aud ready TO enter into new con-
tracts, am authorized To continue existing
contracts, Professionally, by proclamation,
until new contracts can lie entered into.
Respectfully,

chickens, which we learned, on inquiry, to
be present from that small friend Of ours,
Henry Ruble, Esq, Of Beloit. Charley had
named the cock ''Heenan," and declared
himselfready to pit him against all the roos-
tiers in McGregor. The birds are very
handsome, and, SO far as We can judge, they
are of the first blood Of game fowls-black
as crows, with small, wicked-looking heads.
We value this gift very highly and shall
