J, Milner; pending before Alexan der G. Murray, Register, in this city, two creditors proposed to prove their debts, whereupon, Messrs. Loyal & Nun sails, Attorneys for Bankrupt, objected to said debts being proven, upon two grounds, to wit: Ist. Because tho con sideration of the debt was Confederate Treasury Notes, borrowed in 1863 ; 2d. Because the Bankrupt borrowed from one of said creditors, twenty-five hun dred dollars of Confederate Treasury Notes, with which, he hired a‘ substi tute to serve in the Confederate armies, in the war against the United States.— The objections were sustained by tho Register, End the points 1 were certified Judge of the District Ocvrtif tho United States for the Northern Dis trict of Georgia, who affirmed tho deci sion of the Register. The question is therefore settled, that notes given for Confederate Treasury Notes are void, and cannot be collected or proven in in Bankruptcy in this State. |The following party story, told by a Northern paper, of a Yankee corps in the late war, is not bad : In the Arkansas campaign, the gener al officer found the entire —th grouped Srbund a sew mill‘and weeping like Niobes. “Why, boys," ho asked, “what is tha matter V’ Matter enough," sob bed one enterprising volunteer. “Thus far we have never left anything behind j but we can’t possibly steal this- e*w mill 1" .
