The following is copy Of the letter from

SIR Notwithstanding all possible exer
tions on my part to provide means Of salts
fying the just demands of public creditors,
and notwithstanding the actual payments,
averaging nearly million and q half doiars
each day, the arrearages have largely accum-
ulated, and has caused great Inconvenience,
and in some instances serious trouble and
distress. Those creditors, especially those
who have furnished supplies, arms and trans
portation, urgenly require payment, and
ought to have il. The delay effects not
themselves only, but through manifold ram
ifcations, large numbers OF others, not to say
whole communities. The amount Of un-
satisfied requisitlons from the several depart
ments is $26.430, ,557 83, OF which $2l,281,

The Con pscript.


Ia tha wars Of tl, great Napoleon,
thousand, Of Fsenea soldiers were raised
by e7n-.ri irtioa-ihat is, taken by lot
lra.a til. working classes.
Titsl cou,aript, though they generally
made good soldiers, often went with great
uuwillmgu,s, aud even sorrow from their
humble homes AMI their loved ones, to
eulaee the hariships of weary cam
paisn,, to risk life and limb in desperate
battles, for they scarcely knew what, with
people agaiust whom they had no Ill
will
Ga cloudy morning in early May, a
company Of conscript> were marched away
from a pleasant little hamlet in the south
Of France. For some distance on their
way, they were followed by loving friends,
some weeping, aud some brayely striving
TO cheer them up.
At last, these fell off, and the con-
scripts pursued their march in melancholy
silence. Ga the brow of hill, their
road passed the gates Of an old chateau,
the seat OF the lords OF the manor, the
Counts De Lorme. The present Count,
an old man, had lately been permitted to
return from exile in England, to his half
ruined estate; but in acknowledgment
for this act of clemency, he had felt
obliged to offer to the service OF the En-
peror his only son, who was now cap
tain in the grand army.
Just outside the gates, on this morn
ing, stood Count De Lorme, evidently
awaiting the conscripts. He addressed u
few words to the sergeant, who brought
his men to a halt, and called forward one
Jean Moreau, tall sturdy young man,
with frank, honest face, now sadly over
east.

kindly shaking the conscripts hand, you

conscript came home.
He had borne his misfortune very
checrfully at first, but now at every step
he grew gloomy and lost courage. To

confdcd his trouble.
1t was fear that maimed and dis!igurel

This fear grew so strong on him, that
when they came in sight of the dear old
cottage, he paused in ar olive grove, and
sent his friend forward to prepare his be-
trothcd and his mother for the sad change
they must see in him.
Jaques found Marie leaning over the
gate, looking down the street. She was
always looking out for returned soldiers
now. She seemed disappointed that Ja-
ques was not Jean-but greeted him
kindly, and soon drew from him all he
had TO tell Of her doubling lover. Call

Dec, 2lst. 1851.
\ few days since, in the House, some
member unknown to the writer, undertook
to establish the position that the present
war was waseI by the Federal Government
to restore the Union, and to maintain the
Constitutional Liberties of the whole coun-
try, and not for til, purpose of destroying
the institution Of Slavery. And this young
member lab red with zeal worthy of a
better cause blinded by his inordinate love
of the . peculiar institution" to press upon
the House the importance OF bis logic. And
thus is the precious time Of the House vast

image alone his eye seems to see rel cted

FRO7i NORTH CAROLNA,

NEwBERN, n C., Oct. 3.
All the able-bodied negroes in East
North Carolina are now being seized by
order Of the rebel Secretary of War, and
carried into Virginia to work on fortifca-
tions.
Gov. Vance has called council Of the
leading men of the State for the purpose
of taking President Lincsln's recent proc
lamation into consideration.
Union war meetings are held daily in
the adjoining counties, for the purpose of
filling up the loyal North Carolina regi-
ments, which are addressed by Hon. C. b.
Foster, the Administration candidate for
Congress, who has thus far met with great
success.
Six new companies for the famous 1st
North Carolina have been sworn in, the
brave Colonel Potter commanding, who has
recovered from his wounds received in the
