By direction Of the secretary Of war. the
following extract from an opinion of the
Encouragement of the United States is
published for the information ofpeople who
do business in the Indian country:
In my opinion a post trader at Fort Gus
ter, in the Indian country, has no right to
maintain . traffic in goods with the Indians
unless he be properly licensed for such trade.
Post traders can be authorized only for
military forces or when made for the &C.
commodation of emierants, freighters and
other citizens. I know of no authority which
permits the military authorities to allow
trade at such establishments with the In.
dians.

The Finances.

The most sensible article We have for
some time seen in the " Gazette" ap-
peared last evening in which it was
stated that on the first of January there
would be balance in bank of at least
$25, 900. This assertion completely con-
firms all that We have said from time to
time about there being floating debt
at the end Of the year. The Gazette"
will not deny that there is balance Of
s29, 400 left of the $l45,0o0 allowed to
bs raised by the sale CT bonds and
which balance was to have been uded in
the payment of city obligations which
are yet unsatisfied. This amount which
of course should not have been used for
any other purpose, it will be seen has
been withheld from its legitimate OBJ,
ject and has been applied to meet the
current expenses Of the city which
should have been met by a higher tax
rate than $1.15 on the 500. We are now
told that at the end of the year there
will be $4,000 in bank which OF
course is part of the balance
referred to and that the whole balance
with $4,40o additional will make
floating debt at that time of $34 900.
Then add to that bills due and not paid
for the month of December, and it will
be seen that $40, 900 will not be an ex-
travagant estimate Of the floating debt
that will have accrued by the first of
the year. Had the appropriations been
sufficient to have held out to the end
of the year, the $29, 400 balance from
the sale would not have been touched
and the city could have commenced the
new year with clean sheet, the water
rents by careful economy running
it up to July 1880, when the taxes for
next year are made payable. These
are facts we'll understood by those ia
miliar with city fuances, and all repre-
sentations to the contrary will only
delude people who do not want to know
the truth.

A PIECE Of nonsense is now going the
rounds of the State papers. 1t states
that the Republican leaders in Will
mington met last week and agreed to
commence the reorganization of the par
ty for 1880. They propose to have U.
8. supervisors appointed to superintend
the election, to prevent using repeaters
and committing other frauds and also
to have every Republican voter in the
county assessed and his taxes paid fol-
him. 1t also states that, for this pur-
pose good deal of money will be need
ed and two thousand dollars were
pledged upon the spot. 1t is said that we
have to 60 from home. to get the news,
and that is emphatically true in this
