Operators in Wall street suxously looking for
news by the Niagara, she being fully due at Halifax
with seven days later intelligence. We have idea
shat the accounts will be any favorable than those
by the last steamer. It is highly probable that the
continent of Europe is in state OF hostilitics from
one end to the other and the news therefore, is likely
b be much more interesting than satisfactory. We
shall publish the intelligence the moment it is
ceived.

The agent Of the State Of Indiana Is about making
arrangements for postponing the payment Of the semi
annual interest due the LIST Of January, in each
year. to the first Monday in March. It is proposed
allow interest at six per cent per annum, for the time
thus extended The authority for this arrangement
derived from tho annexed joint resolution passed by the
Legislature at the last session.

The tax payers Of Indiana mainly agricultural
depending upon the annual returns for their produce
which do not reach them until winter; consequently
they cannot conveniently pay their taxes in time to
meet the January dividend, and the Legislature aban
doned the attempt modify the difficulty referred to
above by requiring earlier payment of taxes.
Fearing that these deficiencies might occur, the
State made provision by the law arranging the State
debt to make them up issuing certificates for into

issue Of these certificates and also the evil Of making
