e honorable position. Mr. Wirt Adams, a citizen of Mississippi, and a commission merchant of New Orleans, and late Commissioner from Mississippi to the Louisiana State Convention, is mentioned now as the next appointee for that Cabinet office. D. P. Blair, Esq., Special Post-Office Agent for Alabama and Northern Mississippi, is also spoken of for the place. I am advised that the Hon. W. P. Chilton, of this city, and Deputy in the Congress from this District, was tendered the office by President Davis. No more competent gentleman for that post can be found in the Confederate States or anywhere else. He possesses a superior intellect, sound practical sense, much experience, enlarged views, pure private character, and is emphatically a working man, and withal is a Christian gentleman. It would prove greatly to the interests of the department and the public interests if he would accept. I presume his large practice as a lawyer, his regard for the interests of his clients, is the bar

y hints at, coercion, that in less than six months you will see a Southern army invading the North under the lead of President Davis in person. I say "my prediction," it is not prediction, and I now tell you what I know, that it will be done, and Vent in your own State, will be in the scrummage. Do you doubt it? if you do, you need not doubt any more. Look at President Davis' Inaugural again, and all men who know Davis, knows he never speaks words without meaning. Seward, if no one else, Davis, knows he never speaks words without meaning. Seward, if no one else, understands him, for he has stripped him many a time of his hellish masks and held him up in his naked deformity to the world. Yes, Seward knows Davis. This war is a game that takes two to play at, and when once commenced it will not be ended on SDavis. This war is a game that takes two to play at, and when once commenced it will not be ended on Southern soil. The people here are just as cool and as dispassionate to- day as if Lincoln had never lived. We are prepared for the most, and the worst, and we now say, "lay on Macduff." Our harbor is filled with vessels, and we notice a large

veto. That Congress has acted on it, as the Constitution requires, I suppose there can be no doubt.--Will the publication of the veto be injurious to the public interests? We must suppose so. I will not tell you what I hear of this veto, because it may be erroneous, and I may thus unintentionally injure the President. The truth must soon appear; for it is impossible that so high an official act can be concealed or suppressed. The Mercury has the following remarks on the veto of President Davis: It is said that the President has vetoed the act recently passed by the Congress to suppress the African slave-trade. The grounds of the veto are not as yet known, but it is certainly unfortunate that there should be a difference between Congress and the Executive on such a subject. Slavery is the immediate cause of the existence of the Confederacy. That differences should already arise concerning it, in its conncils, is very much deplored. That Congress expected no such thin
