If Texas leaves us, so may Louisiana-and the giganti are prepared to expect some heavy blows before April. The revelations in the intercepted dispatches captured with Mr. Sanders, whose father is a notorious political adventurer, may be most unfortunate. They not only show that we even were negoinet-and receives $6000 salary. There is much indignation expressed by the street talkers against Mr. Benjamin and Mr. Sanders, in the matter of the intercepted dispatches: against Mr. Benjamin for casting such imputations on Napoleon and his consular agents, and for sending his dispatches by such a messenger, in the absence of the President; against Sanders for not destroying the dispatches.

This addition has been made to guard against capture or loss of the certificates on their way to Europe, and also to give an official supervision there. I now send, by Mr. G. N. Sanders, one thousand certificates for the Gulf ports and five hundred for the Atlantic. In order to have the payments put in proper form you had better deposit the certificates with our depositaries, Messrs Frazier, Trenholm & Co., at Liverpool, directing them to receive the money and deposit the same to the credit of the Treasurer of the Confederate States. This will place matters in a business form and relieve you of the necessity of keeping accounts. In order that you may act unders
