The PcnsIon Bill.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE
SIR-The bill recently introduced in Congress designed
to cut off the pttance from which the pensioners derive
meagre support, (from of whom signing himself
'Chepultepec, was glad indignant protest in
your coumns) has passed the senate BY majority of
two votes and 10 consequently awaiting the action
Of the House The smallncs Of this majority furnishes
significant criterion of the character of the BILL less
than do the names recorded against its adoption Among
these find such names Shields Everett, Badger,
Petit, Adams and other Of established reputation.
This contrast may be easily understood The states
men who opposed tho passage this of reform
(save the mark knew it to be bantling of the admin
israton whose sole object is to make good at the
pense of the old soldier part of their wlfu mis-
management and corruption. But they should have be-
gun home. The Gardner claim, and the Gads
den affair should engage the attention of Messrs Hunter,
Pearce, Dent, &c. in the work of retrenchmen 1t Is
not what il doed out TO the helpless and toerng vete
who indicated at the peril of his life and at the
price of his health the honor OF his countrys flag that
they should begin try their hands in this prascworhy
line AS for the prevention Of frauds which they say is
the object OF the BILL the assertion to those acquainted
roiculous The bill must fail to have any useful effect
because IN not leyeed ut the real abuses which have
he- origin in the once iisee....
If the Pension bill now before Congress could prevent
or check these 1t would deserve the thanks of the
munity. But it is not designed, and the defects Of
the present system are usual to be visited on the
poor old soldier.
Have not right to complain of such unjust and
cncsided legisation BY the recent war territory
the value of millions acquired to this country the
