That such correction is indispensable to the welfare of the country, and is probably attainable under the operation of such a system as that proposed, your committee does not question; and in this connection they beg leave to refer to the following communication, embracing the lucid and emphatic views of one of the ablest financial minds of the State, to whose intelligent aid your committee have had recourse in the progress of their inquiries on this subject: Richmond, October 13, 1863. Dear Sir: In reply to the invitation with which you have honored me, I submit an outline of a plan for the reform of the currency, prefacing it with such remarks as may place it property before the committee.

Or in the event that Congress shall fail, on or before the 1st day of May, 1864, to authorize the issue of such stock, or that the aggregate subscription to said loan shall not by that period have reached the sum of four hundred million, such certificate shall entitle the holder, at his option, to demand the amount thereof either in said stocks or in treasury notes, with interest at six percent per annum from the date of payment. III. That the State of Virginia will subscribe and provide for payment of the sum of fifteen million to said loan, upon condition only that her sister States east of the Mississippi river will undertake respectively to contribute thereto in such equitable ratio as will secure an aggregate subscription by States of at least seventy-five million; and that she will adopt such further legislation as may be deemed proper to secure the co-operation of other States, and to induce the largest possible private and corporate s

The report commences by some general remarks upon the magnitude of the subject, and the difficulties that surround it, and professing to have devoted their earnest attention to the discovery of some means to arrest the alarming process of depreciation in the currency, lay it down as fundamental maxims that the first steps to be taken is to reduce the volume within reasonable limits by retiring so much of the issues as may effect that object; and the second, to put a stop to such issues in future.

From Northern Virginia. --The news brought down by the Central train last night leaves no longer a doubt that Meade has escaped the pursuit of our forces and safely reached his fortifications near Centreville. A large number of prisoners, and no little amount of plunder, are some of the results of this pursuit. The last attempt to force the retreating foe into an engagement was made on Friday last, when Stuart's cavalry chased the enemy's cavalry across Bull Run. An officer, who came down last night, says that we have yet two thousand prisoners to come in who have been captured within the past two weeks. A number of our wounded came down, among them Brig. Gen. Kirkland, who was wounded in the engagement of Wednesday last.
