Gold. --Gold is quoted at forty in Houston, Texas. Now; as gold is the same thing there as here, and the Confederate currency which circulates there is the same as that which circulates here, is it not a plain case that gold, instead of being a measure of value, is now simply a commodity, and commands twice the price in Texas that it does here because there is a better chance to invest it in blockade-running? Governor Brown's reply to General Sherman's "Negotiation" Proposition. As much has been said about the informal message sent by General Sherman to Governor Brown, Vice-President Stephens and Senator Johnson, inviting them to visit the General in Atlanta, for a conference in reference to the state of the country, with a view to negotiations for peace, and as the public mind has been interested upon the subject, we copy from the Confederate (Ga.) Union an account of the interview with Sherman's messenger, derived from Governor Brown himself: The Governor stated

inciples of the Declaration of Independence of 1776, let him recognize the sovereignty of the States and agree to leave each sovereign State to determine for herself, by a convention of her people, whose delegates shall be fairly chosen by the legal voters of the State, without military interference or intimidation, what shall be her future connection — whether she will remain in, or if out, return to the old Union, or adhere to her present league. There may be doubts whether Kentucky, Missouri, and probably other States, desire to continue their connection with the United States, or to cast their lot with the Confederate States. The only just mode of solving these double is the one above indicated. If these or any other of the Southern States should, in solemn convention, decide to go with the United States, neither the Confederate Government nor the other States can object. We cannot govern Kentucky, for instance, against her will, unless we can subjugate her. This we have no

The fact must not be overlooked, however, that while Georgia possesses the sovereign power to act separately, her faith, which never has, and, I trust, neve Confederate sisters, or she will sink with them in one common ruin. The intelligent people of Georgia already understand; and our enemy will soon learn, that the independent expression of condemnatnd disloyalty to our sacred cause is another, and quite a different thing. While the people of Georgia think for themselves, and will not blindly applaud the mismanagement of their rulers, they will

erfully go at the expense of any inconvenience or personal sacrifice which the trip might cost me. To the remark that General Sherman does not wish to be compelled to overrun and desolate more of the territory of Georgia, I reply that no compulsion rests upon him to attempt this, unless it be the cruel orders of his Government. If he makes the effort, he will find much greater difficulties in the way of his advance for the next hundred miles than those encountered during his march from Dalton to Atlanta. Georgia may possibly be overrun, but can never be subjugated, and her people will never treat with a conqueror upon her soil. As a sovereign State, she had the undoubted right to dissolve her connection with the Government of the United States, when the compact had been violated by the other States of the Confederacy, and to form a new compact, which she has done.
