The 'Watchman and Reflector" one of the
leading religious journals in the country, in
its issue of June 23d, in abiding to the ad-
vertisement of the California Wine Company,
No. IS Milk street, Boston makes the follow
ing remarks:
'.None but narrow minded extremists will
be troubled with the advertisement in our col
umns of pure wine, and all others will be
glad to see it. We insert it in the interest of
temperance and good morals. There are
times and circumstances in which wine is
necessary and useful wine is needed for the
invalid and for the communion table, and
when the market is flooded with impure. poi
sonous, soul and body destroying compounds.
it is our duty, it is that of every honest news
paper, to let the public know where that which
is pure can be obtained. This is sound po-
sition, and the impracticable radicals are well
come to make all the capital out of it which
they are able 1t is a position which COM
mends itself to every church member who
would exclude vile compounds from the Lords
table. to every honest physician, and to the
public generally. We hope never to be 80
carried away with theory as to lose our COM
mon sense"

principally southwestern companies. Their
payments during the year amounted to the
sum of S3G5,S20 As, but owing to the amount
of interest the entire reduction was only
S5S, 1928 o..
By the act Of Congress of March 2, 1861,
the SUM of $4,000 was appropriated for the
construction of new post In the Valley OF
the Red River Of the North, and $1,000 for
surveys to be made in connection Herewith.
During the year troops have been located at
the point selected, and the construction of the
post known as Fort Pembina proceeded with.
The records of the Department show the
burial, in the national and other cemeteries,
of 1873, 900 persons. In addition to those
buried in the seventy-three national Gene
teries, there are very many soldiers inferred
in private cemeteries, near hospitals in which
they died. Measures are in rapid progress
for carrying out the law which requi e. the
cemeteries to be properly enclosed.
During the year the Subsistence Depart
ment has been enabled in an increased degree
TO purchase supplies near the points where
they are required for consumption by the
troops, obtaining them at much less expense
for transportation. During the year 1869
70 large quantities of supplies were furnished
for the Indian department, for Indians on res
ervations on the upper Missouri river and in
the Indian territory. The expenses thereby
incurred, amounting to $1,000, 900, are to be
refunded and bills therefore are prepared for
presentation to the Indian department. The
number of commissioned medical officers for
duty with the troops on June 80, 1870 was
l47. There were eli military posts, besides
many detachments, each requiring the servi-
ces Of n medical officer. Hence contract
surgeons were employed, the number of reg
ular medical officers being inadequate.
The Secretary's report and suggestions
relative to the coast offences have been pub
ished already. and also his remarks as to the
employment of the army in the Sor tn to main
tain the authority of the United States. In
the ordnance Department the esii mates are
far in advance of any submitted since the close
of the war, for the reason that no appropria-
ton for ordnance or stores was requested or
made for the present year. The expended
balances were placed beyond the reach of the
Ordnance Bureau, and much embarrassment
was caused in procuring supplies for filling
acquisitions and in taking care of stores on
hand. The property of the United States at
Harpers Ferry was sold in November and
December 1869, in accordance with the terms
prescribed by law. it is recommended that
Rome Arsenal, New York; Champlain Arse
nal, Vermont; Mount Vernon Arsenal, Ala

sold, and that the captured lands in Shreve
port, Louisiana and Marshal and Jefferson,

Texas, be also disposed Of
