Pension. for soidiers-prompt Action.

We are pleased to learn that
the Government has already paid
pensions to many families of our
soldiers who fell at Stone Bridge.
Believing that the facts regarding
the receipt of pensions will be
useful to our brave volunteers who
are enlisting to serve their coun-
try, we have obtained the follow
ing authentic information:
Under the first section Of the
act of July 4, 1886, soldiers of the
volunteers or militia service, and
tle widows Of soldiers dying in
battle, or from injuries or disease
incnrred while in service, are en-
titled to the full benefit of the in.
valid pension laws. Volunteers
f1r more than six months are es.
pecially provided for by an ac'
passed at the last session Of Cong
ress, similar in advantages, ex
cept emitting the hundred dollars
bounty upon honorable discharge.
The invalid pension laws, give the
wounded soldier an annual stiped
proportioned to his disability, viz.
If totally disabled, the pay to
which he is entitled while in the
service, if half disabled, (as certifi-
ed by examining surgeons,) then
nan pay and so on for less disa-
bility.
Widows Of officers or soldiers
dying in the service, or by reason
ofinjury or disease incurred there.
in, are entitled to a pension am.
ouning to half the pay received
by their husbands. Minor child
rem under sixteen, (where ther,
Is no window, are entitled TO thi
pension, Ito be equally divided
there is more thau one child) TN
