Soldiers Paw.

A Richmond cotemporary makes the
following very pertinent remarks about
the action of Congress on the different
propositions to increase the pay OF public
Servants-
There have been several bills passed
this session for increase of grade and pay
to different classes of public servants,
civil and military; but the bill for in
crease of the common soldiers pay, which
has passed the House unanimously, twice
over, has not yet been acted upon by the
Senate. Are every ones wants and
claims to be considered before the sol
dier's? While salaries of two thousand
dollars must be increased to three, and
three to five, are the private soldiers still
to be limited to their eleven dollars per
month, which las Mr.. Davis, of Mississip-
pi, Indignantly declares) will buy Just
eleven drinks?" More than this, there
is House bill pending to allow commuta-
tiOn to the soldiers in money for their
short allowance Of meat--not yet acted
on, nor considered. Truly our soldiers
are the most patient and good bumored
soldiers in all the world; they grudge no
wi, hO pVlh' nv plN"uOuS Dup thSl
must be treated like human beings; and
if the Senate has any objections to pass
these bills, all we can say is, it may be
judicious to debate them in secret session.
Ads- Rosencranz has issued an order
prohibiting any officer, soldier, camp
follower or citizen, within the limits Of
his department, from dealing in Confed-
crate scrip. This species OF paper has
heretofore been popular article to traf-
fic. Suffers and Others bought all that
could be procured from soldiers or citi-
zons, and negotiated Its sale in Nashville
at a handsome profit. Rosencrans ar
gues that such persons give aid and com.
fort to the rebellion by making its pa
per an article of trade.
