RATIOS Acr.-The Confederate Congress, at It's
last session, passed an act declaring that all Off
GERS in tho army and navy should be entitled to one
ration, and all commissioned officers in the field and
aaoat in addition thereto, shall be allowed to pur-
chase from any commissary, or other officer rcquir-
ed to issue subsistence to soldiers marines and sea
men, at the prime cost thereof, including transpor
tation, as follows One ration each for officers Of
and below the rank Of colonel two rations each
for officers of the rank Of brigaderg general, major
general and lieutenant general and three rations
each for general one ration each for commissi-
oned officers Of the navy, of and below the rank of
commander; and two rations each for officers above
that rank. That an officer shall not draw or pur-
chase, at any time, more Of the component part Oh
ration than is issued to the private soldier at
the same time. That nothing contained in the act,
or the act TO which is is an amendment, shall be
construed as allowing Communication for ations, or
ns authorizing an officer to receive or purchase ra-
tous, except when herequircs them for his own use

Referring to the Presidents salary, The Mo
bile Register says: If Mr. Davis friends have com
miucl % blundcr in this matter, his enemies have
been guilty of equal indiscretion in the nature Of
their aspersions and comments. Tho Richmond
Examiner allows its caustic pen to be dipped in its
bitcrest gall when writing ON the subject. 1t is
painful to read those angry rccriminatons from the
Capitol, while we are hourly straning our cars and
eyes to learn what progress the enemy makes in
laundering at It's gates The trials of d great
and common cause ought to make us moro churit-

NASHVILLE NlGGERs.-A correspondent Of the
Chicago Times says;
Nashville is great place for negroes, and must
say my experience on Michigan avenue, never led
me intoo sea of lilac kids, silks, broadcoths. pa
tent feathers, watch chains, brcastpins, rings, and
bracelets, as encountered upon Summer street yes
torday afternoon. Little delicate copes. too with
gold heads, were being switched about in the most
approved style, and, for crayats one would think
the dusIy swcs had made them the study of life
time Among these dark skncd gentlemen and
Indies, white men and women have but one adyan-
hge-thaJ ecceutriciy-gi them by dressing so
much poorer aud so far behind the fashion.
