The Times special says: A gentleman
Just returned from the South saws that many
Government agents are acting on the Drin-
! clpal that it is their last chance, soon to be
closed and all the traders are using every
| dlshonest means TO make money. There is |
/ delegation in Washington complaining
that the government agents are exceeding |
their power by refusing to give up property |
| 10 the rlghtful owners without receiving a |
| written acquittance covering not only the |
acts of the governments and its agents.,
whether those acts have been in accordance |
| with the law and in obedience to orders or |
not. What is asked is that the agents be re-
| CURED to obey orders received from Major
General Howard.
f. TREASURY AFFAIRS. .
WAsHINGToN, October l9,-AL statements |
that the Treasury Department has been or
IS paying money to various States, on ac-
count OF their expenditures for war purposes
during the war, are untrue. The accounts
OF the various States are passing through
the Auditors and Gomptroller's Office, but no |
payments are being made to any State
Circumstances frequently occur which
render it-of great interest both to the Gov
ernment and tO;priyate parties to be able TO
trace Government securities. 1t is therefore
very desirable that banks and all persons
using these securities should record
each separate transaction in them, stating
the name of the person or firm Of whom
they were purchased or to whom they were
sold, their location, series, &C.
