EoUALIzTNG SOLDIERS BoUNTY.-The
men who fought and won the battles of the
Government, and thus maintained it in pow
er, have not been treated altogether fairly
so far as bounties are concerned. The men
who first enlisted feel that injustice has been
done them, in the matter that, while they
served long and faithfully without extra pay,
others who went into the army after the
hard fighting and marching were done, Sc
cured fortunes. In plain common sense
view, the injustice is highly offensive, and the
friends of the soldier, in, as well as out of
Congress, are determined that there shall
at least be an equalization of bounties, that
the men who were willing to meet the first
furious attack of treason, shall be recompen-
sed and paid equally with those who enlis-
ted when the battle was more than half
fought and won. The bill of Mr.. Clarke,
of Kansas, which is now before the House,
proposes to equalize the bounties to soldiers,
by providing for uniform bounty of 500
per year, computing for the whole term of
enlistment The measure is approved as
one which will do justice to all our fighting
men, and We trust that it viii become law
as speedily as possible

THE STATE OF THE CoUNTRY-The Off
cial statements of the conditions and rela
tlons of the country, as given through the
Message of the President and the reports of
the varisus departments and bureaus, afford
most satisfactory exhibit Their influence
is already felt in the increase of public con-
tidence and the strengthening of the nation
al securities Considering the vast respon-
sibilities which have, during the last four
years, oppressed the Government, and the
immense debt which has been contracted
in the war for the Union, every report
which has been given the people is much
more favorable than was expected. Upon
all the great subjects of the present nation
al concerns-the question of reorganization
of the revolted States, the condition and
prospects of the Treasury, and the financial
purposes of the Secretary and of Congress,
and the foreign relations Of our Govern
| ment-the official documents laid before the
National Legislature, speak in a way which
gives ground for entertaining the faith that
the course of the country is toward -domes-
tic pacifcation and international peace, aud
higher measure of prosperity than it has
ever before known.

SERVED EN- RIGHT-Speculator in the
necessaries of life are deservedly coming to
grief. In Chicogo combination of men,
who undertook to monopolize the grain mar
ket of the country, went under with crash,
and indications of like fate to the specu-
lators in produce are manifesting themselves
in the city of New York A similar .result
may be anticipated in other articles. For
instance, large supplies of State and Yves
tern butter are being offered in the Eastern
markets without buyers, the demand for
shipment having been checked by late for
eign advices. There has also been heavy
decline in pork, and dealers are chary about
keeping large stocks on hand There is no
species of speculation that savors so strong
ly of total depravity as combination to run
up the prices of the necessaries of life, and
no one ought to pity those who sustain los
ses by engaging in such wicked schemes
