vigorous and continued prosecution of the

A Communication from Robert Tyler,
Register of Treasury, published in the
Sentinel, says the whole amount of Treas
ury, notes issued since the Government
went into operation, is exactly six hum
dred and twenty-four millions of dollars.
Three hundred and twenty-six millions
have been funded in bonds and stocks
About one million have ~beencancelled. The
whole public debt, including European
loan, does not quite reach eight hundred
and forty millions, against which must
be charged all cotton and other assets
now held by the Government. The en-.
tire interest of the public debt does not
exceed twenty three millions.

CIRcULAR.-The Educational Assoeia-
ton of the Confederate States of Amer.
lea, at its meeting, in April, resolved to
hold its next meeting at Atlanta, G eorgia,
on the first Wednesday in September
The state of the country, very different
from what it was anticipated, at that
time, forbids the expectation of a gener-
al attendance of the teachers and the
trends of education; and many OF them
have expressed the opinion that the pur-
pose of the Association would he hest
subserved by postponing the mesting.
Concurring in these views, and believing
that they express the general Judgment
| deem myself authorized to announce
that the meeting of the Association is
postponed to some future day, of which
due notice will be gwen in the nublic
prints. j. L. REYNOLDS. ID,

THE VERY LATEST NEWS.

The hr ng of the Parrot guns upon
Sumter ON the Goth, was exceedingly
heavy, but not so accurate as heretofore.
ABOUT noon the flag was shot away, but
soon rep aced. No casualties reported
Coi. Alfred Rhett. commanding, and gar
rison are stout-hearted.
\ battery Of Parrot guns is distant
from Sumter two miles, five eighths.-
Inc missiles used are 200 pound balls,
eight inches III diameter and two feet
long, with fat head of chiled iron. Shells
OF the same dimensions are also used.
UP to Wednesday night, the third day
OF the attack, nineteen hundred and sew
enty-two of their missiles struck Sumter,
and including to-day about twenty five
hundred have struck.
The damage of course, is considerable.
and tor the last two days all Of the guns
OF the South face have been disabled
Yesterday, about four o'clock, the IRON
clads formed in line of battle to renew
the attack on Sumter, but the Fort open
co at long range from the East face and
they retired without attacking. To-day
the lronsides and two Monitors kept up
the fire on Wagner at intervals, and the
Yankees sappers have begun to make
approaches on that battery from their
nearest work. A shot from Wagner dis,
abled one of the Parrot guns, and The
James Island batteries, under Lieut.. Col.
Yates, exploded two of the enemy''s am
munition chests.
RICHMOND; Aug. 2O.--Several trans :
ports, loaded with troops, passed down
the Potomac a few days since. Their
destination is unknown NJ doubt Mead's
army has fallen back towards Washington
where it will probably remain until re.
cruited by conscripts. ~
A flag oftruce boat arrived at City Point
on the 10th, bringing ten officers ana SIC
p~rivates of the Confederate army.

A HELLIsH OUTRAGE By YANKEEs.-By
a letter which reached this city yester-
day from Wetxel county, Va, we learn
the particulars of a most revolving outrage
committed by ome yankee iends upon
the person of the wife of Mr.. L. S. Hall,
member of the State Legislature from
Wetzel, and one of the first advocates of
secession in his section.
Mrs. Hall had her clothing tied over
her head, ana in that condition she was
thrust into the street of New Market
vile, her husbands place of residence
Report says that an outrs &c, to which
death is preferable, was perpetrated up.
on her person. The yankee hell hounds
afterwards burned down Mr.. Halls out
houses, and ransacked his house.
Richmond Examiner,
Any n who is willing to go back I'M
der yankee rule, may make up their
minds to have their mothers, wives, is
tiers and daughters subjected to all man
ner Of outrages by their brother yankees.
If they are ready for this, let them con-
.tinue the cry for peace and union.
