HEADQUARTERS FIRST MILITARY DISTRICT !
STATE OF VIRGINIA, RICHMOND, March 81, 1862
All powers conferred upon the chief executive of
the State OF Virginia by Its constitution and laws
and heretofore exercised by the Provisional Gov
thereof under the reconstruction laws OF Con-
gress, are hereby devolved upon the commanding
officer OF the First Military district and will until
fuIther orders by him be assumed and performed.

s. +. CAALFIN, A. A. @.
In another order the Commanding General removes
or suspends MIR. Burgess the radical mayor OF Peters
burg an appointee OF General SchoneId's. AS TO the
probable cause OF these removals there are various
rumors and the utmost excitement prevails in rela-
tion TO the removal OF the Governor on all sides II
Is generally conceded, however, as the probable
cause OF Wells removal that the Commanding Gene
raj thought proper 10 suspend an executive onlcer
who was charged with the crime Of felony In having
been party to the robbery Of the United states mails
rs recently alleged. In this connection the missing
letter. which is charged to have been purlolned by
Wells Co. Is said to have contained an inttmation
that Governor Wells, Judge Bond. the register in
Bankruptcy; General Orlando Brown, late OF the
Freedmans Bureau; L. Edwin Dudley, Clerk OF CIR.
cult Court, and D. b. Parker, special agent OF the
Post ONCE Department, were engaged IN q con-
spiracy to sell out the republican party OF Virginia
TO the rebels; and, further. that Judge Bond and
General Brown IN consideration OF their services,
were to be sent to the United States Senate. The
letter closes with the remark. "Ain't they precious

do. England prolonged our war, and
owes US for at least year of it; our
blockade expenses are largely due to her
action, as is also the destruction of our
commerce, and such debts cannot be dis
charged by paying for fen paltry
ships" This means simply that the
enormous debt which Great Britain owes
us cannot be estimated in dollars and
cents. Nothing but cession Of the
"New Dominion and the possessions
of the Hudson Bay Company, together
with the negro Island of Jamaica, etc.,
will suffice to save the national honor.
Of course this benghted people will not
notice the balance sheet Not an acre
of all this territory is of the slightest
value to Eogland, or any other govern
ment. Yet it will not only suffice to pay
for all "the psltry ships and national
honor" but command a premium, per-
haps, 10 the "paltry" amount of few
hundred millions of dollars, to which,
however, should also be added whatever
our suffering claimants upon England
may manage to swell her mythical in
debtedness. But the scheme is vast !
worthy of It's inventor and carried out
in respect to all foreign governments
which have barren lands to dispose Of,
must needs make Mr.. Sumner the next
President, if the Radicals, headed by
General Grant, shall be able to elect a
successor to the present shcrtsighted
politician.
