From Our Own Correspondent notes the Bonner stable sale drew a large crowd but grossed under 40000 dollars. Jim Keene bought the top priced horse for 4000 dollars, while most horses sold for three figures. The piece critiques Bonner’s lavish spending and patronage of writers, then shifts to financial and military concerns, including a failed savings bank suit, plans for new forts, and the Seventh Regiment armory project. It also covers grim importation issues of beggars and Italian trafficking at Castle Garden.
