The restaurant keepers pa}^ these Boston men three dollars per gallon for whisky that costs in Baltimore from ninety-five to one hundred and five cents, and nine dollars per gallon for whisky that costs two dollars and a half to three dollars per gallon. The poor oyster men must have whisky, they think ; some citizens must have, and all the ofiicers and many soldiers will have, let the cost be what it will. THE GAS . WORKS. I think all the holders of gas stock in Norfolk were dis- loyal. About ...the first of July last they stopped making gas ; coal run out, and the officers would not take the oath of allegiance in order to get permits to ship more. They continued closed until December, when General Butler issued his order that all the residents in his district should take the oath prescribed in the President's amnesty procla- mation. In the order it was stated that every person " to have his rights in any way protected must take and subscribe 24 the oath, " &c. The proposition is here plainly inferrahle that if they do take and subscribe this oath, their rights of property shall be protected.
