MONDAY, SEPTEMBER l, 1878.

The financial affairs Of the District OF Col
umbia, have lately been attracting considerable
attention. The Washington correspondent OF
the Baltimore Sun says that 'the tax lien GER
tiicates, vouchers of floating Indebtedness of
the local governments, and other forms of
monetary obligation dependent upon the credit
of the District government, are constituting
series of securities of great extent and inpor-
lance in the local money market. There have
been indications of combined effort, based on
New York capital to depreciate the value of
these securities, which has excited not little
alarm among the men of small means who hold
them in Washington. L. is proposed to estab-
lish upon the basis of capital produced by an
aggregation Of District securities, District
stock bank, for general banking purposes, but
especially devoted to dealing in District paper,
and designed as financial center and support
for these bonds. 1t is intended as combina
ton of the holders of the bonds to prevent
them from being crushed in detail. ~
