A Charlottesville correspondent suggests, if the threat of confiscating Senator Mason's property in Philadelphia be carried out, that Monticello, the home and grave of Thomas Jefferson, now the property of Commodore Levy, of the Lincoln Navy, be appropriated by this State. If confiscation is to be begun, the South can play at the game as well as the North.
