1@- ANSWER TO a CoRREspoEDEsT.-A
soldier, writing from Grafton, propoundl
the following inquiry: II
You will please inform US through YOU
widely circulated paper, whether there hst
been an order issued to this effect: WilI.a
soldier, having been disabled in the q. 81
service, loose his bounty by accepting hill
discharge before the expiration of his time
and will he be entitled to a pension
whether he serves out his term of enlist
ment or not. Yours respectfully.
IHTEREsTEDs
We are not aware of the existence Of
any such order as that alluded to by our
correspondent. A soldier disabled in tie
service secures his bounty and is entitled
to pension whether he serves out his
term of service OF not. Any order to tie
contrary would be manifestly unjust and
has not nor wilIuot be issued.

Semi-weekly news., 1865-03-23

1t is very difficult to arrive at the
truth when we are so cut of from mail
communicative from the cis-depart-
ment. AS an instance our dispatch-s
published Tuesday, say that the bill
TO put negroes in the army had been
lost, this was under date of 25lh ult. -.
taken from northern papers. Since
then we discover the following para.
graph under a later date, in the Chi
cago Tribune, which has resem.
blance to truth, as it appears to fol.
low in connection with the previous
dispatch we published, and to which
we allude. Here it is "The rebel
House of Representa-, rs has passed
another bill to place 100000 negroes
in the army. In order to satisfy the
objections of Senators, this bill does
not guarantee freedum TO enlisted
slaves, but leaves the question OF
emancipation open" 1t is very dis
agreeable for us to be compelled to
look to northern papers for informa,
tion relative to our own affairs, this
however, cannot well be avoided, and
we must submit to it until the good
old times GENES"
