PENSION AaENCY.-The admirable method
adopted by Colonel Greene in the payment OF
pensions was shown this moraiRg during the
continuous storm that prevailed through the
day. Though the crowd was more than ordi.
narily large, few, if any, were forced to remain
in the vet, but by the arrangements perfected
by. the agent all were comfortably sheltered in
adjoining rooms.
This clearly proves the wisdom of the plan,
and will, no doubt, be adopted at other agencies
when its merits are so manifest over the old
method. Colonel Greene deserves credit for his
intelligence in marking out SO easy way OF
getting through such difficult and tedious
business The regular alphabetical list Will be
closed on the oath, after which date all pension
ers will be paid unfortunately. The lack Of
confusion and NOISE which marks the whole
thing, is amarked contrast to previous years.
