Some believed ^ audria ; tubers supposed he was moving in the direction of Manassas; while the recent cross ing al Fredericksburg conGimed every one in Richmond, that the Yaukee trader was conceal ed behind tbe 'hills of SiotlorJ, ready to follow bis advance to his old battle ground. In tbe meantime General Lee kept bis own counsels, and tbe result; as announced in bis modest tele gram of ihe !hb, haa filled our entire communi ty, officials and all, with no less surprise tbau admiration. II- this rare facnitv of divining the movements df an enemy, and keeping bis own counsels does nut constitute the great secret of Napoleon’s wonderful success as a military leamrr, 1 have read history to no purpose.. In my last I adverted to a question that has arisen between some of Our military officials and tbe accepted bidders, under the new mail .ci tings. Several rases have already come up in whi-.h tbo Colonels commanding have refused to discharge tbe conscript, who had become a con* tractor, «n tbe ground that tbe act of Congress exempoifg contractors from tbe performance of military duty in tbe armies of the Confederate Slates, "from and after the passage of this act, dating tbe time they aiesuchcontractors,” was intended to be prospective in ita operation and applies only to such persona, not in tho military service, as may hereafter become mail carriers. The practical effect of such a construction would be a complete nullification of the law itself. For example A, puts in a bid for a mail routJ, either At a regular < rur_ This reaches the ears of the conscript officer, and A is immediately enrolled, and hustled off to the Camp of Instruction. In the mean time, the bid reachee tbe Depsrtment, is considered, accepted, and all the conditions required by tbe Postal laws to constitute a contractor, except ex editing tbe bonds have been fulfilled. The lat ter condition becotuea impossible. Howl By the act of At . By no means; for he has been hurried off, perhaps, to a distant State, though both he and his guarantors have already become responsible to the Department to tbe extent of all damage tbat may enauo by reason of his fails ure. It is by the act of the conscript officer who enrolls and thn Colonel who detains-a regularly accepted ‘‘contractor for carrying the mails of the Confederate States;’’ and ibis in the Itce oi an act of Cong revs, wbi'O, without aoy words of limitation as to past, present or future, so far a* Ihe date of mupllment in the military service is concerned, expressly declares that contractors for carrying the mails shall bp exempt from mil* itary doty, “from and after the pissage of this act, daring tbe time they are anch contractors.” With so plain and intelligible a'lxw to guide the enrolling officers and commandants of camps, A would have the most ample redress at tbe bands of any court and jury in tbe Confederacy. The great mistake of tbo military officials is, that they cannot comprehend that this law, protect ing mail contractors, ia merely an additional, special section to the general exemption law, and as such operates upon all who come under its guarded and.Umiled provisions, whether they be already'ift tbe army or not. I base this moment seen a discharge granted by the Colonel ot a North Carolina regiment, to a sergeant who bid been in the army two years, but, who under the late lettings, had become a contractor’ It merely recitee that having exhi bited evidence of bis being a contractor, he is hereby discharged from the service, under an act ot Congreis. Bidders need entertain no fears.that the Postmaster General will permit nay infringement upnn tne privtfegs of exempt ions granted by Congress to those who may be come contractors for carrying the mails. After quite a lengthy investigation before the Mayor. James A. Edie, bite principal clerk ol Jas. H. Taylor tf Charleston, who absconded with eighteen thousand dollars of his employ er’s money was discharged from custody on the ground tbat tbe offense, under tbe lews of South Carolina, was only a beach of trait, and did not amount to a felony. Edie has been living here like a prince, patronixiog the fashionable soirees and making money fly generally. CHEROKEE. FROM TIVOLI.

On these grounds tbe President haa hith erto steadily resisted all inflneuces which have been exarted to induce him to exact of foreign consuls that they should ask an exequatur from this Government as a condition of tbe continued exeroise of their functions. It was not deemed compatible with tho. dignity of tbe. Government 16 extort, by enforc ing tbe withdrawal of national protec tion from nentral residents, such inferential recognition of its independence os might be supposed to be implied in the request 7ot an exequatur. Tho consuls of foreign nations, therefore, established within the Confederacy, who were in possession of an exequatur is sued by the Government of the Unitod States prior to the formation of the: Confederacy, have been maintained and respected ia tbe exercise of thoir legitimate funotions, and tbe same protection and reepect will be accorded to them ia future, so long as they confine themselves to the'sphere of their duties, and seek neither to evade nor defy the legitimate authoriiy of this Government within its own* jurisdiction. There hss grown up sn abuse, however, the result ot this tolerance on the part of tbe Presi dent, which is too'serious to be longer allowed.

The refuse of Chinese sugar cane or sorghum is said to be very destructive to cattle, when given to thetn for fliod. The outer coating or tbe cane is very hard, and contains silex or flint; and when this is broken up by grinding in the mill, ar.d afterwards taken into the an imal’s stomaoh, it operates like broken glass, producing violent inflammation. The Inde pendent Quardtass, of Iowa, gives an acoount of Bevcn head of cattle, who were destroyed by eating this refuse sugar cane, after the juice was extracted'. A post mortem examination nf the stomach revealed this as tbe eanse of their death.' It is r highly important that tho far mers who raise sorghnro for making sugar, as well as those who grow it merely for fodder, should give attention to this subject, and see whether any foots within their own experience warrant the assertion that the Chinese cane is tLui deleterious to live stock: If it’ b so, the information should bs circulated as wide ly as possible, ia order to prevent a serious destruction < of property.—Carolinian, Yank** Operation* on oar Coa*t.
