TIE ARMY BILL.

There is no measure that has been success
fully carried through tine present Congress,
which affords us more qualification than the bill
to increase the pay OF the officers Of our small,
but gallant Army. Our qualification, however,
would have been much increased, had the bill
also provided Tor some addition to the pay now
received by the privates Our army, small as
it is, has been found equal to every emergency !;
has emblazoned our Aag with victory after vic
tory, such as have few, il any parallels in his
tory, and no legislation having for its object
its elevation and improvement, can exceed its
services or merits. We rejoice then, that this
tardy act of justice to the officers of the army,
has been consummated, but we would have re-
joiced still more had the poor soldier been inclu-
ded in the bill. The act only requires the sig
nature of the President to become a lava
signature which will not he long withheld An
act 50 eminently just and proper will no doubt,
command the appreciation of'the Whole country.
No class Of public servants have been SO made
1uately compensated for their services, as our
army officers. The bill just passed fixes the
annual pay Of the several officers as follows:
