VIII. The frequency with which horses
and mules are stolen in the vicinity of this
Post by marauding soldiers and yagrant
negroes, calls for the most stringent meas
ures for the suppression Of the crime.
Soldiers are hired and paid to fight, and
not to trade in horses and mules. The
offering of horse or mule for sale by
soldier, is in itself an offence, and is prin,G
facic evidence of his having come in pos
session of il by felonious means; and any
citizen purchasing it, becomes an accomplish
of his guilt.
Any soldier selling, or offering for sale, a
horse or mule, or any citizen purchasing
the same of soldier, will be arrested and
punished.
No negro will be permitted to sell or offer
for sale any horse or mule without special
permit from this Office on proof of ownership;
and any citizen purchasing horse or mule
from any negro without such permit, will
be arrested and punished.

which vill be effected by tie Get. But We
have not over estimated the amount o. cur

,,,nht that the Z feet Of the act will be to re
,,nc., 4 snf,icieutly. Even Ii there shall have
,,,en Issued eight hundred aud forty millions
~ Treasury notes By the 6rst Of April, the
tax on property viii REFUGE this amount by
two hundred aud fitty millions, leaving ave
hundred and ninety millions; and onethird
deducted from this amount leaves but three
hundred and ninety-four millions. or about
one huodred and atty millions above what
we suppose to be necessary, to be retired BY
The Investment Of the one hundred dollar
notes in four per cent. bonds, which shall
not be paid in for taxes, aud in the ak per
cent bonds authorized by the act, and which
are exempted for oil time from taxation
That this amount Of Treasury notes will be
so invested we do not doubt. And the effect
of the whole operation will be to enable the
holders of Treasury notes which, after pay
iug the tax, will be sixty six and two-thires
cents in the dollar, to buy property at price
regulated by q currency equal to less than
one-third of It's present amount. Ihat ls'
whilst the holders Of Treasury notes have
lost by theta but one-third OF their an oun',
and therefore hold two thirds, they will bay
property and employ labor at less than one
third of its present prices and the hSlders
of property after paying the taxes assessed
upon it, will sell it at one third OF its present
prices. This, we believe, must be the true
operation of the act, though at the present
moment the opinion seems to be general thai
ANYTHING is more valuable than money.
