statement: 49, 4tH @sAsr'f
1--WE heretofore stated upon reliable au-
thority that the stay law would not be extend
ed, and we now repeat, for the benefit Of all
it may concern, that the laac aoiu not be ertends
ed. A general order suspending sales of per,
sonal property till the lst Of May next will
soon be issued, but executions may issue after
January LIST for all debts, under Which lieLs
may be acquired at once on personal proper
ty and sales made of it on and after May 1st
and real estate may be provided against after
January lst as if no stay law had been pass
ed. This is entirely reliable and we take
occasion to say that the military commander
has made just and beneficial discrimination
between real and personal property under
the operation of the law The order will
probably contain special provision for the
protection Of widows and orphans
