the States would be greatly benefited and faclitat
led if the Banks generally would agree to take the
Treasury notes of the Confederate Government
The patriotic as well as wise example Of one Of the
Southern Banks deserves to be generally followed,
lat least to the extent Of receiving and paying them
out But that Bank goes further: it proposes to
ca in its circulation and pay out the Treasury
notes altogether. There can be 70 risk in this pol

make the Government quiteindependent But apart
from that the moment war is over the ways and

abe the best currency We could have MORE to be

was first rumored that guns were being mounted
at Fortress Monroe, pointing, Mr.. Tyler said
s.at the bosom Of Virginia." the venerable ex-
President called upon Mr.. Buchanan to known If
there was any truth in the report. The latter re-
piled that he knew nothing of the facts himself,
but "would make proper inquiry"
These inquiries resulted In elicting the fol-
lowing facts: The wooden gun. carriages had
been allowed to decay, as the Government lad
determined to substitute those made Of iron The
iron carriages having arrived, Col. Dimmick K
gave orders for the wooden ones to be removed
and the guns to be re-nounted on those of iron
Such is the explanation given Of mounting the
guns on the ramparts, with the exception Of two
howitzers, which were mounted as to sweep
the bridge. From the careless manner In which
the ort had previously been guarded, five hun
dred men could have taken 1t at night The
three gates were always open, and the bridges
over the moat down. Now the gates are closed a,
night and the draws raised, lest evil disposed
and reckless persons should be tempted to seize
the place. The explanation is perfectly satisfac.
tory to Mr. Tyler. whose summer residence

the howitzers.
