This includes the additional pay voted by
the Thirty ninth Congress, which lasts for two
years from July l. 1866.
For every five years. service as an officer in
any grade an addition of $109.50 per annum is
made. officers who are not ON duty with
troops, or who are not furnished with quar-
ters in kind, receive in lieu of them a certain
sum per month"; which varies in different
localities. The amount is based upon the rate
of rent and the price of fuel.
About one-seventh of the officers of the
army, by the nature of their duties, receive
the latter allowance; and in large majority
of cases il is found to be not an equivalent to
the quarters and fuel furnished BY Govern
unconstitutional LnteIhgencer.

EDToRs OF THE INQUIRER

claimed in behalf of our board Of school d.

Quoted into serious difficulties by scheming

others. The history of this conflict cannot
be given in brief newspaper article. Suffice
il to say, that the grave error committed by
the board, was the exercise of legislative pow
ers, forgetful Of the fact that they are only an
executive body, and should simply carry into
effect the school laws as furnished by proper
authority.
Political feeling unfortunately was allowed
to exert an undue influence in the selection
OF teachers. Instances Of partiaIiiy and in.
justice, alas were but too plainly apparent
One-tourth Of the schools in the township
thus far during the season, have been arbitra.
rly deprived Of teachers, contrary to the de-
sire Of citizens, and the remonstrance Of our
county Superintendent. The districts thus
deprived Of schools, it is said are relieved
from taxation for the purpose Of paying teach

has also levied what is regarded by many as
an oppressive tax (13 mills on the dollarl for

ANOTHER ATLANTIC CABLE The public
have for some time been aware of project
to lay another ocean cable between this
country and Europe The line is to start
from some point on our coast-say at Cape
Charles-running thence to the Burmuda
Islands, from that point to the Azores, and
finally landing at Lisbon, in Portugal. The
company have made their contracts for a
cable Of superior construction and material.
1t is claimed that the laying Of the line be-
tween the points mentioned involves much
less labor, expense and risk than that Of the
British company. That there is but little
danger Of failure in this respect is evident
from the fact that established companies
agree to complete the work taking the re-
sponsibiiity of failure Another advantage
in this line will be that if one section Of the
cable is broken the others are not rendered
useless The company have also completed
their arrangements with the governments
in authority in the islands forming the way
stations. and also with that Of Portugal, so
that the work of laying the cable viii soon

A REnAakABLr punsUlr AND CApruRE

A REMARKABLE PURsUIT AND CAPTURE.
The Dchrer Aeies gives an account OF one
of the most remarkable pursuits, resulting
in the eventful capture of the runaways,
which Il recorded in criminal annals!
On the 7th of November, 1865, two men
Dr. Hamilton and Eugene Hamilton with
numerous aliases, robbed Rockwell d Co.'s
bank at Elkhcrn, Wisconsin, Of aboCt $3.50,
600 in money and bonds Last summer
they turned up in Colorado, and we're in
and about Denver Tor some two months
By some accident, a Mr. Van Trees, a de
tectiye Of Denver, got track Of them, and
they becoming aware Of it, left. Mr. Van
Trees and Mr. Cozzens then began the
chase which lasted FIVE months when the
criminals were overtaken and arrested at III
Paso, Mexico In Texas they we're rescued
by mob, but recaptured On their way
up, at Los Pos Pinos, New Mexico, woman
who was with them claimed to be the wife
OF one Of the prisoners, attempted to poison
Mr. Van Trees but failed
The Hamiltons we're safely confined IN
Denver for few days but are ere this on
their way to the East, where their captors
will receive a rich reward for their successful
pursuit and capture.

Dep opuiation OF the south.

According to the ofIaai census of Ala

eighteen thousand lcsshan it was in 1860
From the time Alabam was admitted into
the Union, IN 1919, upo 1860, the popula
ton had been steadily Icreasing at the rate
Of about five per cent pr annum, at which
rate HcIe would have2cen now 200, 600
inhabitants, Instead 4 which the census
show, only q45,00 he total loss to Ala
bana- according to te above figures, is
about quarter Of a tilion-the present
population being so mrh less than it would
have been had not thcwar Interrupted its
growth. SuppoSing the Southern States
70 have been subiectedo the same depOpu-
latine influences, the aggregate loss ofpopu-
latioH would amount over two millions;
and this estimate is ather probably under
the mark than over it. The causes for this
filling off are yario. Many men were
killed in battle, many migrated to Canada
and Europe, and notA few who had gone
South from the Northreturned here on the
approach of war. There, too, immigration
has been almost suspended for the past SIX
years; anl even now the Uncertain condition
of political affairs in the South prevents
many emlgrants from choosing that country
Tor their home. This causealone mast keep
