"Oh ye JtIorcd--come home"
And art thou sorrowful, beloved, that am Far
away,
From hearth, and bower and summer grove
where we were wont t. stray
While youth rung ont its joyous notes Of mu-
sic and of gcc,
And our linked hearts were pangless as az an
gels heart may be.
Yet will | come, but ere that hour the hand Of
time may trace
The line ofcare upon my brow, the iurrow on
my face;
But changeless as th-t chongeless star that
shinea forever on,
Shall bs my heart. nor shalt thou miss one
young affection gone.
Then weep not, love that for awhile we twain
ars thrown apart,
But keep thy tears 10 nourish still my memo.
~ in thy heart;
For, sister, will yet return, though now
cannot come,
80 light tho smile Of gladness up, in that ex'
pectant home:
For in the silence Of the night the passion Of
my soul,
When mono was near, save one, to llst words
that knew 10 control,
Two vowed that ere my foot should turn TO
where life's race began,
The spurners of the humble boy should court
the honored man.
Then, sister, do not stay too soon the wander.
er's high career,
And send not forth thy chiding voice so sad up
on his ear,
Lest in the weakness of its love his pride Of
heart he bowed,
And he forget mid thoughts Of home the VOW
that he has vowed.
But pray for him AS thou wouldst pray for one
to battle tipwn,
With thy warm kiss upon his check, thy heart
beside his own;
For what is life bu, ono wild lapse Of warfare
and Of fears
And who is he gone forth p. alas, tho mate Of
thy young years!
And no may fall--perchance before the victo.

But hold--for who would wish TO reDd Tate s

multiplying frauds committed on the pub
lie, by various mixtdrea in imitation of this
well known medicine, is alone satisfactory
evidence of It's superior Virtue, without any

the genuine Panacea will hereafter be sold

REVOLUTIONARY PENSIONS.
DEPARTMENT OF War, I
December 26th, 1928. {


SIn:-The present practice Of your Office, in
the law Of May LIST, 1920, shall disqualfy a
person from receiving pension, is deemed to
be unequal in its operation on dHeren, class
e. Of applicants: To correct which inequality,
the following rules will hereafter be observ-
ed:-
The object Of the pension law is to provide
for the absolute wants Of the poor but merito.
rous soldier Of the Revolution; and the high
est rate of pension is supposed to be the small .
es, sum that will afford comfortable support
to an individual In accordance with this
principle, the following rule has been adopted
by The Department, and is hereby continued,
viz: ls:. When he whole property Of the a2-
olicant consists In a yearly or fixed income.
(such as an annuity for life, bequest, rent or
charge upon lands, or any other incorporeal
righ,,) which is not convertible into capital, he
shall not be deprived Of pension, unless such
yearly income exceed the full yearly pension Of
a soldier.
In addition to which the following rules,
corresponding in principle, are hereby es,a-
blished 2. When the applicants property
consists in money, stock, houses, lands or such
other property as he Can at pleasure convert
into money or capital, il shall not deprive him
Of the right Of pension, unless its yearly pro-
ceeds, estimating them at ten per cent. OH its
total value, shall be equal 10 the amount of a
full pension.
8. When the applicants property is mixed,
and consists Of both species, he shall no, lose
his pension, unless their aggregate income, es-
,ima,ing by the preceding rules, shall amount
TO a full yearly pension.
AS the Pension Laws of 1918 and 1920 are
no, predica,ed on any pre- existing engagement
OF the Government, but were Intended as a gra-
tuiious provision for the support Of aged indi-
viduals, for he time being, the two last regu.
lations will not Sc considered as re,ros pee ii,
in their operation.
10 obtain the benefits arising from the fore,
going regulations, in every case where claim
has been rejected under the former regulations
rev declaration is now deemed essentially
necessary, in order TO show what is The pre-,
sent s's'e Of the claimants properly, and to
prove his identity.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
P. b PORTER.
JAMES l.. EDWARDS, Esq. Pension Office.

The last Maryland Republican contains the
account IT public dinner given 10 the Hon
JOSEPH KENT, the late Governor Of this State
by numbe ~ the members OF the General
Assembly, at Annapolis, on the 9TH inst. The
Committee Of Invitation consisted Of Charles
S Sewell and Benjamin S. Forrest, Esqures,
OF the Senate, and Richard Thomas, Archibald
Lee, and William Done, Esquires, Of the House
Of Delegates.
The Governor on being toasted rose and re.
turned thanks for The honor conferred on him in
neat & appropriate speech, in which he brief
ly though felIcitously remarked upon the pc
culiar natural advantages Of Maryland-her
inexhauslible resources for the prom otion Of
objects connected with Commerce, Agricul
ture, and Manufactures-he expressed All ear
nest wish for The success Of our Rail Road en-
terprise, and very Justly observed, that every
part Of the State was more or less interested
in The prosperity Of Baltimore. In this sem
timent every liberal and enlightened CITIZEN
will coincide, and we trust the day is near at
hand, when it will be responded 10 by all who
take pride in being considered Marylanders.
He then dwelt upon the necessity Of erecting
more permanent works Of defence, for the pro,
lection of Annapolis; and stated, that looking
10 tho facilities which its capture would afford
TO an enemy, Of conducting the operations Of
predatory warfare, upon the various assaila-
BILE points in the Stale, as well as against the
National Capital, he had taken early occasion
to direct the attention Of the general govern.
ment to its security; and hoped tina, it would
not be longer delayed than the FIRST class Of for
ti6catons shall be completed. He cpngratu-
lated the company on the improved condition,
and Aat,tering prospects for the agricultural
interests, and concluded, BY invoking The men,
bers of the legislature 10 harmonize in the dis
charge OF their official du,jes.
Gen Thomas Of the Senate presided at the
table, assisted BY the Hon. John G. Chapman,
Speaker Of the House of Delegates.
