AN IMPORTANT MEASURE.

ON Thursday last bill wac passed by the
House of Delegates of Virginia, appropriat
ang the sum of 81 ,0o0, 900 for the relief of the
Efamilies of soldiers within the lines Of the
3enemy. We have not had an opportunity OF
examining the bill, but understand that 1t
the distribution OF this fund 10
the counties overrun by the enemy, through
agents to be appointed to represent the
county in tie matter. A proposition was
made to prevent the exchange of Confede-
rate money appropriated under this bill for
other currency at less than specie value,
which was properly. In our Judgment, op-
posed by Mr.. Monroe, of Hampshire. upon
the ground that 1t would render the appro.
pr,ation entirely useless in the very portions
of conutry where it was designed TO be ope-
ratve and effective.
The passage of this bill will doubtless ex-
ert a sanitary influence upon those gallant
men who have left their homes and families
within the enemy's lines. Even If the OBJ
Iects Of the bill are not attained to the cx-
tent contemplated, its passage will go to
show that the State Of Virginia is not un-
mindful of the welfare OF those who have
sacrificed all for the accomplishment of
Southern independence.

Department OF the Confederate Government,
few days since, of twenty nine pairs OF;
pants, three jackets, six pairs of shoes, one
box OF candies, and six litter sheets. At
previous examination, 1t was proven that
the articles alleged to have been stolen were
found in room in the house occupied by
Trama Constant. This room, Constant as.
serts, was rented to Mrs Annie Dobson
alias Maloney, with whom the prisoner ia
said to be staying. 1t was denied by Mrs.
MalOney at this examination that the room
was rented by her but the proof being
plain against that denial, she was remanded
to appear for trial before the Court of Hus
tlngs in February. Maloney also refused
to acknowledge knowing anything about
the room in which the stolen articles
were found, but, from some cause or other,
he was not brought into the case till yes;er

things out OF the room, and thereupon ar
rested him.
Miss Martha Brook, young woman of
nineteen summers, quite handsome, AID
neatly attired, being called as o witness,
made oath that yesterday morning Maloney
came over and, unlocking the door to the
room in dispute, took from it several things:
afterwards he searched the yard for some
chickens which he said belonged to him
This witness was positive as to bis having
entered the room, and knowing such to be
the fact she called in officer Morris and in
formed him of it. She also stated that
there were still two or three chickens In
