We have published two schemes, one OF Mr.. Hunter

circulation as currency to hundred and FIFTY millions
This we believe, is pretty much in accordance With

Imnressments.

We have received dozen more communications,
complaining of the system of mpressments pursued by
Governments agents. We take this method of inform
ing the writer's that it = impossible to publish them
Nor is it important The subject is now before Con-
gress and the Legislature and it is to be hoped, that
some measure may be adopted, which, giving just COM
pensaton for all property impressed, will give satsiac-
ton to the country The army must be supported, and
if mpressments are necessary the matter should be
regulated by law Our persuasion is strong that there
will be no necessity for force if equal ami just sys-
TEN is established by Legislative authority The people
will of themselves cheeruy supply whate they may
have TO spare over and beyond their necessities
The House of Delegates has suggested the county
courts as f. and fair tribunal for the assessment Of

such a suggestion and that Congress will incorporate it

THE EXEMPTION BILL.
The House then took up the special order in Commit
tee of the Whole (Mr. CURRY, of kla in the Char)
being the bill to declare what persons shall be exempt
from enrolment for military service The pending ques
ton was on the amendment of Mr., GARTRELI, OF Ga,
providing that person shall be.enrolled who has a
substitute in the army furnished in accordance with
ders heretofore issued by the Secretary Of War.
Upon this amendment the House was addressed by
Messrs CLARK, of Ga, and DAVIS AT the conclusion
of Mr.. DAvIs's remarks the committee rose, and the
Chairman stated that conclusion upon the subject
under consideration had been reached.
On motion Of Mr.. KENNER, of La, the House then
went into secret session receive a report from the
Committee of Ways and Means.

Frannh Mediation.

The New York papers give conflicting accounts OF the
probability of French interference Their Paris cor
respondents say the Emperor Napoleon has determined
10 act by himself if England persists in refusing; while
washington correspondent avOwedly on the authori-

of mediation thought OF by any Foreign Power. The
E.,ald notwithstanding this Washington authority, ar
CUES through column to prove that France and England
are both bitterly hostile to the Union and will unite in

Government to make Preparations at once to meet the

The action of Foreign Governments becomes every

"Four or five Yankees brought a sick negro to the
bank Of the river Other day and forced him into the
water, telling him TO swim or die; the negro begged
hard but the Yankees were memorable. One Of them
gave him plank, however, and thep6or wretch, after
pulling oil his clnthes forced into the river. Our

Of the water they discovered that he hghtu;ly
