departure from the line Of our duty as
patriots for us 20 give publicity to
| our views upon what we deem TO be
one of the most vital and important
subjects now,beiore the country. We
allude to tho course of conduct on
the part Of some persons, that has a
direct, natural, and unavoidable ten
dency to depreciate Confederate
money. We have learned, with NOR
LITIGATION, aud with the proioundcst
sorrow and regret. that there are some
OF our citizens, Though we are glad
they are few, who have declined to
take Confederate money in payment Of
debts due them.
We are in the midst Of war
waged against US by foe, who's tyr
any, high-hAnded wickedness and total
disregard for the rights Of humanity,
stand without a parallel in the history
OF civilized governments, Of either
ancient or modern times. There have
been heavy draugh,s upon the conn,

not enough to furnish a support 10 q
man who has famil and there are
many, ycathousands, now in our army.
whose individual. earnings furnish the
only means Of support TO the vito and

The government pays her soldiers

These the poor, but gallant and
proud hearted soldier, whdois far
