Important to Soldiers and their Families.
Welearn, says the Cincinnati Go1cte, that many
persons not only in this city and State who, hav-
ing taken out the +" internal revenue license" as
claim agents, represent heirs of soldiers of the
war of 1912, that they can procure for them
"bonnty and patents for 100 or 800 acres of land,
charging therefor from S25 to $50 in each case:
whereas these agents only procure exemplifca-
tions of the original patents, fram the record
therefor; and these copies are almost entirely val.
ueless, as the premises embraced therein have
been either sold by the orignal patentees or their
Immediate heirs, t. have been forfeited for non
payment for taxes.
The General Land Office, we understand, fur
nishes these certified copies to all whom it is be-
l:eved are bona file applicants, at cost of 81 As,
as required by the act OF Congress, approved July
2 1855, which took effect July 2, 1865, which
amount is paid into the Treasury Of the United
States, and aids so much in the extinguishment of
the public debt.
We trust that after this explanation, none of the
parties interested will subject themselves to the
payment of the extortionate fees required by the
so-called claim agents

A Dash at the Catholics-A Failure.

There was a conference Of pastors of various
denominations at st. Pauls methodist church in
New York, one night last week, to see ifa union
OF proestants to arrest the progress of the catbo
lie church could be agreed upon.
Rev. DIR Bacon sent an essay that was read nv
his son. He thought christian union one of the
most feasible things in the world The conpre-
gational platform was large enough for all crea-
tion and all the sects had to do was to come on To
that platform and all would be one They could
not give up infant baptism, and SO could not the
baptists could not give up the right to ordaiu
their own minister, therefore could not accent
the episcopacy; could not give up the indepen.
dence of the churches, and therefore could not
be presbyterians. But all these could become
congregationalists easily.
DIR. Vermilye represented the PRESBYTERIAN
and Reformed Dutch element He regarded his
sect as holding the middle ground between the
extremes of congregational indepedencv ard epis-
copacy. He stated distinctly that it was folly TO
talk about a christian union while the baptists ex-
cluded christians from their communion table be-
cause they were not immersed, and episcopaiaus
excluded ministers from their pupits who were
ordained by a presbyterian.
DIR. Western spoke for the baptists. He said the
basis of christian union was: "0ne Lord, one faith
on baptism" One Lord and one faith they already
had. Now let all have the one baptism-in other
words, become baptists-and the union would be
complete. He said IL was no part of the duty of
oaptists to sacrifice their views on that question.
Bishop Cox represented the episcopalians-
The feebeness of the protestant church consis ted
n Its being in squads and not an organized army.

.coNTEMPTIBLE QUIBBLE.

few DAYS since, the Union charged that'
uuder Buchanan's administration, 'cooanes
officers stole the national arms" Mr.Stanton'
of Ohio. a republican member of republican
congress, as chairman of a select committee
to investigate this charge, reported to con-
gress, on the 18th of February, 1861, that
the charge scas false IN ecery particular, ana
CONGRESS adopted his report. The Union is
thus condemned by its own party-yet 1t has
not the honesty to retract the charge, but now
attempts to sustain itself by quoting where
and when the rebels captured arms, after the
avar had commercial Was ever bubble
more contemplate? Were they cabinet OH
csrsf Was there musket or any other ar
ticle of war stolen from the United States by
cabinet officers under Buchanan's administra'
tion2 Not one. Had Buchanan any cabinet
officers after Lincoln was inaugurated p
None. And republican congress, having
investigated the matter, decided that no arms
soere stolen by anybody, during has adn''''s-
tration that the southern states received
less instead of more than the number they
were entitled to by law; and that three OF
them, North Carolina. Kentucky and Miss
lssippi) received none, simply because they
did not ask for those to which they were law
fully entitled! Yet, the Union, instead Of
frankly and honestly retracting the falsehOOd
resorts to the contemplate bubble of show
ing how rebel armed forces not as it first
said, "Cabinet O6icers') captured, not stole,
arms,-a different charge altogether. And
it adds to its infamy by falsely saying that
'the argus comes to the defence of the reb-
els" The republican party may well ask
somebody to come to its defence from such
mouth-pieces as the Rock Islaad Union.

THE IOWA GREY BEARD REGi-
MENT.

The 37th Iowa Volunteers known as the
Grey Beard Regiment) composed mostly OF
old men who were enlisted to do guard and
garrison duty, but who have been put IN all
sorts of hard and dangerous and tatigulng
service, has, at last, been mustered out. Our
readers are pretty familiar with the history
of the regiment, and the shameful manner
the old men have been treated by their held
officers. Quite a number of the men have
called on us within the past few days, to
thank us for advocating their cause and CIV
ing publicity to their reasonable complaints,
and from them we learn that Col. klncade
found it convenient to skedaddle Tor home as
soon as the regiment arrived in Davenport,
and has not been seen since, and IT is their
opinion that he dare not meet the men when
they are discharged and can meet him on
equal terms as citizens. They have suffered
great wrongs at his hands, and the hands OF
some of the other officers, and they say 1t
would not be safe for some of the late should
er straps to come in contact with the indig-
nant and sturdy old grey boards. The 1t.
Col. (Westl and the chaplain, they say, were
hooted ct and insulted in various ways, and
barely escaped mobbing, On account of their
bad treatment of the men.
They also say that, in the early part of
their service, while stationed at Alton, they
were paid S25 each, as one-fourth payment
of the 500 bounty promised them when they
enlisted-and now that S25 is deducted from
their pay, and they get no bounty at all +;
and that many of the men have not the
means to purchase decent clothes and reach
their homes. There is something wrong
about the matter and it will be strange in
deed if the state of Iowa does not see that
justice is done to these old men and faithful
soldiers.

Prentice on pettIcoats and Old Women

JEFF Davis is generally weil-mannerd man,

like termagant.
JEFF Davis wore a petticoat and it is said that
he was at the same time in great hustle.
JEFF Davis took female dress, but not fash

his person to be in the height of fashion. JEFF
always was modest.
JEFF. Davis put on the petticoat and his cap
tors would't tolerate the deep damnantion of
its taking off,"
We wonder whether JEFF. Davis, when he put
on the petticoat. called in the aid OF cotton to
give voluptuous appearance to his bosom.
Five hundred dollars is offered for the petticcat
that JEFF. Davis ran away in. Petticoats have
risen.
1t is said that JEFF. Davis, whilst fleeing in pet
ticoats, had concealed pillow upon his stomach
to excite the sympathy of his pursuers By making
them think that he was in an interesting way
But they saw at glance that he was to old for
anything of that sort.
