HoUsE.-The House considered the
Senate bill providing for the pay of GER
tain persons over forty years, who en-
tered the military service.
Holman offered an amendment to in
crease the pay of soldiers 81 per month,
and pay those who are honorably dis
charged before the expiration of their
service a proportionate amount of the
bounty
During the discussion, the justice Of
such Legislature was urged, while on the
opposite side it was contended that if
soldiers were wounded, they receive hos
pital attentions, besides being placed on
pension rolls.
In addition to this, many Of them had
State bounties, and it was necessary to
pay debts already contracted before in
