The B,G Bearers BrsY.-Major Eli 1T, Chief
Pavmastcr and Majors Mas n and Barstow have
been busy for the past few days in paying off the
troops. Uncle Sans crisp D US are very wei
come and acccp able-indeed, when were they
ever otherwise The long-eXpected funds were
brought here in the United STATES, an,l the delay
of the Go ernment in meeting the demands OF the
sold ers is to be attributed solely 20 the want OF
change, and the impossibility of issuing NOR;
promptly the po tage currency which ongress
:uthorized for the purpose of relieving that want.
Pa, er money has one great advantage over coin.
It is handled and counted easily, and payments are
made with rapidity One regiment had sixmonths
nav due them cp 10 the 3rSt of August,
and the others four months, so that the
the sum ce.ved by each man amounts to SOM
thing considerable. The suffers and storekccpcrs
:rc having good time in the buoyant state OF the
money market. Pocket books, however, ar. IN
good dem nd and we infer that some cash will be
s.s,lted down. in spite Of the allurements which
the tradesm, n have to offer.
