Tm DpArT.- The dnit will not take place in

IN properly arranging the credits ane getting the
machinery in good working order. This delay
is fortunate, indeed, for those wards which arc

We ere informed, meet the approval o. tue Mayor,

That is, a volunteer receives S5i2 for one year

When before I'm The history of the whole world
was such pay given 20 the soldier! Besides tli'

The above facts should be kept constantly
before the UcOpe, Men are now more needed
than ever; and, in view OF this fact, the authori
ties arc willing 20 pay for them. Let our def
