PAY-DAY.-Main Street and Thirc
were pretty well throDged with soldiers
on Saturday, who, being drawn up by
by companies in line of battle, made q
charge on the U. S. Paymaster and came
off the better by $40 plumber. per capita,
and that, too, without any blood shed -
The boys seemed to feel elated at their
victory, which found expression in nu-
merous demonstrations Of good feeling,
not always elegant but generally easy of
comprehension. Uncle Sam pays his hands
good wages, and promptly. while they in
turn are ready 10 do anything and make
any sacrifices for the old gentleman, whose
authority they have sworn shall be res
pected and preserved.
One little bit of advice we will ven
ture to give to the soldiers who have been
and will hereafter be drawing pay for their
services. 1t is too common that the SOL
-diers display an Hawented Hbcraiity which
often runs into reckless and wicked
squandering of their earnings for trifling
trinkets, and gewgaws. at double their
value, and for the mere qualification OF
their appetites, when these earnings might
and should be saved for their families, or
laid up, excepting what is required for
present wants, against day Of future
need. This sort Of prudence will tell in
the long run, and our soldiers ia exercis-
Ing it will be more sober, orderly and eff
Gent in every way.
