The Produce Loan.

We publish this morning the very able
circular letter Of the Secretary Of the
Treasury of the Confederate States to the
Commissioners appointed to receive the
Government produce loan. The opinion
Of the Treasury Department on the.ques-
ton of pecuniary Government aid TO the
agricultural community, based upon their
loans of produce, is one of general inter
est to Planters and Merchants, The
Secretary, as he states, speaks in advance
Of the action of tho Confederate Congress,
and only gives the views Of the Depart
ment. He states tho case so clearly and
forcibly that IL is not easy toadd word of
argument on his side Of it. He shows,
while the great struggle in which we are
engaged must be maintained on the credit
Of the Government, so long as our ports
are closed and commerce and revenue
suspended, Of how vital importance it is
not to strain that credit and thereby reach
the point where the Government currency
would become deprecated. He main
tains that Government issue Of Treasury
notes for the relief Of the planting or any
other interest would be attended by this
risk, and that it might involve fatal con-
sequences to the Confederate cause, and
concludes that there are other modes OF
relief open to tho planters, which he
points out and which are not liable tc
th csc grave objections.

omoial Report of the Battle Of Man
assas Plains.

Gen. Beauregard has made his official
report of the battle of Manassas Plains,
on the Dist OF July, and we observed that it
is generally commended as a document OF
exceedingly rare merit. 1t has not yet
been published, but we find the following
synopsis in letter from Manassas to the
Richmond Dispatch
| have been favored with brief synop-
sis of portions OF Gen. Beauregard's re-
port of the battle Of Manassas, which has
been forwarded to the War Department,
and which will doubtless be published in
short time. Gen. Beauregard opens
with a statement of his position antcce-
dent to the battle, and of the plan pro
nosed by him 10 tho Government OF the
junction of the armies of Shenandoah
and Potomac, with view to the relief OF
MARYLAND and the capture of the city OF
Washington. which plan was rejected by
the President. Gen. Beauregard states
chat he telegraphed the War Department
on the 18th of July Of the contemplated
attack Of Gen. Mcdowell, urgently asking
for a junction of Gen, Johnston'5 forces
with his own, and continued TO make
urgent requests for the same until the
nth of July, when the President consent
cd TO order Gen. Johs.on to his assistance.
Gen. Beauregard goeson to state that his
plan of battle assigned to Gen. Johnston
an attack on the enemy on the left, at or
near Centreville, while lie himself would
commend in front but the condition Of
the roads prevented this.
II was then decided to receive the at
tack of the enemy behinn Bull Run
After the engagement at BIackburn's
Ford, on the 18th, Gen. Beauregard was
convinced that Gen. McDowell's principal
demonstration would be made on oar lett
wing. and he then formed the plan OF
throwing forward a sufficient force by con
yerging roads to attack the eneny's re-
serves at Centreyille, so soon as the main
body of the latter became inexlricably en-
gagged on the left. Late in the day, find
ING that Gen. Ewell, who was posted on
the extreme right of our line, had not
moved forward in acceptance with the
programme aud the special order which
had been sent to him, Gen, Bsauregard

Treasury shall be entitled 10 the benefits
Of such laws as exist in their respective
States for delay in the collection Of debts.
The Legislature have solved that question
20 lar as Alabama is concerned, by do.
claring that such benefit shall be extended
in that State. This looks like q practical
assertion Of State rights under the new
Confederacy, and it was favorable oppor-
tunity for doing 50, where the object to
be attained was one Of such manifest wis.
dom and justice
There should be left no ground Of con
Ftroversy on the question, whether man
Who owes debts both here and at the
North, shall have his property subject to
sale to satisfy the claim Of his Northern
creditor while those whom he owes at
home, may stand by and see him Invested
Of every thing for that purpose, and them
selves debarred by their State laws Of
sharing in his effects. This matter ought
to receive the attention of our own Legis
lathre now in session.
