Confiscation of Mason and Slidell's Real Estate as against English Purchasers
--A Washington correspondent says:
Mr. Slidell is believed to be seized of real estate in Louisiana.
This he could convey to London bankers, and no act of confiscation of our government subsequent could attach.
Such a conveyance would not diminish our complications with England.
Perhaps an investigation of the records of the General Land Office would throw some light on supposed purchases of government ers

Furlongs.
Editors Dispatch:--I take the liberty of communicating what has always seemed to me the very clear object of the law of furloughs recently passed by Congress.
The difficulty of reconciling the two portions of the section quoted," grows out of the erroneous idea, I think, that it was intended to make sixty days the minimum as well as the recruited of the furlough.
My interpretation of the law is, that while in no case more than sixty days shall be given, the War Department shall arrange a discriminating scale, curtailing the time in proportion to distance to be traveled — i. e. suppose, merely for illustration, such a scale as this:
Texas volunteers, 60 days.
Louisiana and Mississippi volunteers, 55 days.
Alabama volunteers 50 days.
Georgia volunteers, 45 days.
South Carolina volunteers, 42½ days.
North Carolina volunteers, 40 days.
Virginia volunteers, 38 days
