Important Decision OF the Quarter
master General.

The Quartermaster General refuses to
pay for property used during, the war for
military purposes in the Southern States.
The following decision has just been made
in case where vouchers had been given
by order of a commanding genera, for the
use of blacksmith shop and tools belong
ing to a loyal citizen Of Winchester, NTgl-
MIA:
Winchester was hostile town, captured
from an enemy who did not surrender on
terms, but were driven out by force OF arms
everything in it was prize OF war; as at
Atlanta and Charleston, buildings were oc-
cupied for shelter of troops, and for sick
and wounded soldiers. 1t does not appear
that the Military Department should order
payment of any rents under such circum-
stances.
We understand that this decision will APP
ply to all similar cases arising in the South
ern States, even where the claimants pro-
duce evidenes of loyalty.

Prospect of the B.y Goods Trade,

There are already favorable 5 mptoms
of an early and profitable dry goods
trade, evidenced in the inquiry tor jaco-
nets, lawns, light prints, and such goods
as are adapted for an early Southern
trade The movement in dress goods
has advanced prices, though not very
marked as yet, The market is firm for
wooleus, though there Is not much
change in prices. The importations OF
dress goods and other dry goodsjust now
are larger than they have been for some
time. The demand for low silks ls good,
at reduced prices, but they are very
scarce. The Southern and Western
trade. however, is coming into market,
and as the South is reported TO be not
very rich, the demand for low black silks
will be large. The market for colored
silks is very dull. White goods are dear
er now than at any time during the war;
the impression among the people that
there was a very large stock of these
goods in the market being erroneous
Light stocks Of white goods. it 10 said,
exist throughout the West, and as the
demand increases prices will advance,
and a lively time Is anticipated. A.
together, the prospects Ot the dry goods
trade may he said to be very eucouTag-
ing.

DANIEL S. DICKINSON who died in our City yes,er-
DAY aged GO years had been an ardent and active
politician throughout his adult life He had prob
ably made as many partisan speeches as any man
who survives him; had held by election the respon-
sibe posts of State Senator, Lieut.. Govern
or and L. 8. Senator, and died holding by
appointment that of u. s. District Attor-
ncy for this District We Ango-Americans are
supposed to be acrd in politics, and 70 deal IN
personal abuse and dcfamaton yet we cannot recol-
ect that We ever heard or read sentence which I'M
pugned the personal integrity OF Mr. Dickinson.
Though he had been Jealous Democrat TIL oo years
old and has since acted with the Union party nobody
ever suggested that he was brbcd or bought to do
any act or give any vote OF his life. In short
though nearly all Of US have differed with him, at one
time or another, and been pited againsthm in ardent
party strife do not believe il said by any
one that Daniel 5. Dickinson a false, bad man.
These are facts worth bordering. Our State has
had greater men than Mr. Dicknson-more learned,
brilliant eloquent-but son of hers ever
won and kept throughout thirty years, more general
regard and good will.
