As investigafions progrea in Wasl.ig. ton, 'Richmond, and' elsewhere, man mnttors whilch the so-alled Confederae Government' never inteided eliould be ma'de public. are boilt revealed. One document has beeq found in Richmond, consivting of a bill itroduced into the Confederate Congress by Jabes L. M. Curry. of Alabama, Which denounces the Eirancipation ProclamaIton of President Lincoln and the enlistment of nearoes in theFearaf ..frmies as not ainong the acts of legitimale warfare, but we are properly -classed among'Bsnch acts as the right to put to death prisoners of war without special cause, tho right to use poisoned weapons' and the right to aa. sassinate, and, if- persisted in, will jus. tify the Confederate Go.vernmdut in the adoption of iiensures of retAliation. The bill is supposed to .have been passed in secret session." Another document has bean found i6 Richmond, in which Jeff. bavis gives his sanctinn to secret ehergical composition for the purposp of buruiing t'ederal Ves seli. . In Jeffs indorsement 'of tie docu-. ment lie advibes his Secretary of State to carefully examine the preparation, and ascertain whether it will "overeome he difliculty heietofore experienced.' .hese things do not redound much to the credit of the Richmond 'pewers, to say the least. rAtgsta Chronicle & eane .
