return of Captain Hine to that city from
Arkansas. where be has been for three
months. His description Of the condi.
ton of things is gloomy. No prepara-
tions have been made for raising crop

war absolute famine is to be added,
Crowds of ragged and woe-begone people,
whole families, men, women and children
besiege every steamboat for passage,
willing to go in any direction to escape
the desolation and misery Of their homes.
Many leave their families, cattle and
household goods, to be appropriated by
the first conner, anxious orly to escape
with life. The country is over-run by
predatory banes of guerrilGs, who plum

The Currency.

Our new Secretary of the Treasury has
commenced his administration by the
adoption of a measure which, we think,
will improve our currency. He has au.
thorized the Dcpositories to receive cur
reucy on deposit on call at per cent.
interest. 1t has been suggested that our
Banks should now loan all their surplus
funds to Government, and utterly refuse
to discount for spectators, and we shall
soon see fall in prices; or, at all events,
check to any further advance in the
nccessaries of life.
If Congress will amend the Tax Act
at its next session, so that the tax should
attach to the coupons of the eight, seven
and six per cent. bonds, instead ofto the
bonds themselves, as the law now pro.
vides, the Treasury will receive 2 much
larger revenue from this source. We
believe large amount of the bonds are
leaving daily for Europe, and nothing
but taxing the coupons will ever enable
the Government to realize the tax on the
bonds. England, when she pays tine
public creditor or holder of her bonds,
keeps back the amount of the Income
Tax. We might advantageously follow
her example in this matter.

The Exploits of the Florida.

No sooner is the Alabama at the bot
tom Of the ocean than the Florida com
mences to fill the Yankee mind with
dread. The New York papers are tuIl
of accounts of her exploits. The barks
Greenland, General Berry, Goconda,
Belinda, and the schooner Margaret
Davis, have been burned by her since
the 9th. The schooner Howard was bon
ded. The officers Of the Florida are dcs-
cribed as very gentlemanly in making
their captures, but very saucy,--one of
them having sent bis love to Abe Lincoln
by one of the captured crew. The cap.
ture which has created most sensation is
that of the Electric Spark-an 500 ton
steamer-runniug between New York
aud New Orleans, With an assorted cargo
with 100000. She left New Orleans
Saturday, and was caught by the Florida
the next day about o'clock. 1t is sup
posed she has been taken to Nassau.

An Incident of the Line.

An amusing incident occurred on the
lines in front of battery No. %, on the
afternoon of 18th of July. A large New
foundland dog was seen to come out from
the enemy's line of battle in front ofthat
point, and run up and down in playful
manner between the two hostile lines.--
Picket firing having ceased by mutual
consent, the men on both sides fockcd
out to witness the spectacle, and as the
dog would approach near our lines or re
turn towards the Yankees he Was greeted
with loud cheering. In this manner the
spirits of the Confederates and Yankees
we're exbilerated to high degree, and
eventually the bands began to perform.
The band of our battery struck up
"Dixie," aud was responded to with
yankee Doodle" from the Yankee
lines. All this time the dog was hunt
ing up and down the lines in full sight.
He was whistled to at last by some of
our troops, and assarge tin canteen ap:
pended to his tail. Vie. was then turned
loose amid loud hurrahs. and laughter,
and sent on his way at 2.4O speed back
to the companionship of his Yankee
friends, who celebrated his arrival with
equal gusto: The. incident is said to
have afforded avery amusing diversion.

3. BY the abolition and confscation
Acts every vestige of Union feeling in
the South has been blotted out, as Dun

4. The nations wealth is about twelve
thousand millions of dollars. Three
thousand millions of that has been des.
troyed and wasted. So We are that much
poorer. Its place is supplied by IRE.

5. The whole country is one vast pest
house of sickness and disease, consequent
upon congregating men in large bodies,
and then scattering them throughout the
land.

we hear the voice of mourning, and see
the weeds of afflictin. Well might the

4 financial rumor was the on dit du-
ring Friday aud Saturday last in Rich
mond. 1t was said that the distinguished
gentleman who has recently been eleva,
ted to the Secre taryship of the Confed-
crate Treasury, with his coadjutors, has
a grand scheme on foot for the purchase
of all the Government cotton aud tobacco
in the Confederate States, throwing upon
the market as its equivalent upwards OF
eight million pounds sterling, or forty
millions in gold. The stupcndous wealth
of the parties said to be interested
makes the suggestion possible, if not al
together probable.
