The Government here will give all possible support to the State at the earliest moment practicable. Very sincerely yours, J. Holt. Gen. James speed, Frankfort, Ky. Washington, Sept. 12. dear sir: The late act of Congress providing for the confiscation of the estates of persons in open rebellion against the Government was, as a necessary war measure, accepted and fully approved by the loyal men of the country.
