GaoI TempIars.

U0Ou rem pt1re.
We are pleased to learn that the order of Good
Tempars in this city, is in prosperous condition.
Many of the difficulties encountered during the first
year of its existence have been surmounted. The
order has now all the usual equipments-has pleas
ant room, suitably furnished, and is not only free
from debt but has sufficient funds in its treasury to
meet all prospective contingencies. Some OF our
most earnest and active young men and women are
enlisted in its behalf and determined to lift up
the standard of temperance in this!commnnity. Alb
stinence from intoxicating drinks, is safe princ-
pie for any young man to adopt. While there can
be no substantial argument in favor ofits use as
beverage, past experience furnishes an overwhem-
ing weight of testimony against it. Those among
us whether old young, who profess to be friends
Of the temperance cause, would do well to encour-
age the Good Templars, especiaya this is the only
temperance organization in this city.
At meeting ofthe order fGood Templars held
on Tuesday evening Of last week, the following Off
GERS were elected for the ensuing quarter: Frank T.

another Fire Thee alarm of fire was raised
on Monday afternoon last about five o'clock. that
brought fremen and citizens out in
a trice. The fire was found to be issuing
from N. R. Aliens woodshed, few feet in the rear
of his dwelling. Those who were first on hand took
the wise course of forming bucket line from the
mouse to the harbor, and thus kept continuous
stream pouring upon the of the house
the burning shed. The shed WIS partly filed with
dry stove wood, that made q tremendous hot fire
but fortunately there but little wind, and what
mere was was In favorable direction to blow the
flames from the house. The firemen had their en-
gines out with their usual alacry and it took but
few minutes after they were in position to subdue
the fire. The shed with its contents was mostly de
molished, but fortunately there was no other dam
age.
The origin of the fire at the present writing is no
certainly known. Mr.. Aliens family at the TIM
were away from home and it is supposed that SOM
small boys were playing with fire or matches in tn
shed when it accidentally took fire.

Soldiers pOrtant Deeis


The official act of Congress, authorizing
the payment of additional bounty, publish
ed in General Orders No. 55, from the War
Department., removes all ambiguity from
the second clause of the bill !; and clearly
defines the object of the section. Section
Is provides that every soldier who enlisted
after April 10, 1861, who served faithfully
for two years, was honorably dischar ged
and who was not entitled to receive more
than 500 bounty from the United States,
shall be paid the additional bounty of $50.
The form of an application to be made by
the heirs of deceased soldiers to the Second
Auditor, to obtain the additional bounty
thus granted, will be the same as that hith-
erto used in applications for arrears of pay
and bounty, except that the number of the
previous settlement should be given. 1t
should be stated that the object of the ap-
lication is to recover the additional bounty
provided by the 18th and 18th sections of
the act of Congress, chapter 1,178, approved
July %, 1866, and the claimant should
make an oath as to identity, and to the fact
that the discharge papers have not been dis
posed of in any manner whatever by the
soldier who received them. 1t is not believ-
ed that payment of the additional bounty
can begin for some months to come, as the
funds for the purpose have not been placed
to the order of the Paymaster General and
still further, the rules and regulations to
govern the payments, fixing the amount
OF evidence that will be necessary to estab
lish claim, and providing system upon
which the disbursements will be made, are
yet to be adopted by the commission ap
pointed by the War Department for thai
purpose. This Commission is now in session
and is composed of the following officers
Major General Candy, Brevet Major Gene
raj Barnes, and Brevet Major General Blu
chanan, Colonel of the First United State:
