Gen. Grant made a requisi-
ton on the Navy Department
for a Government vessel to be
used for pleasure excursions
with his family. The complai-
SAINT Secretary recalled the Tai
lapoosa from the Gulf, and
placed it at the Presidents dis
posal. The cost to the Gov
eminent is about $1,000 a day
by the conversion of ship of
the navy into a ''royal" yatch.
They did things otherwise in
MIR. Buchanan's time, who was
a fearful "old fogie" on such
questions, compared with the
magnificent Grant. When the
Harriet Lane" was completed,
and was ready for a trial trip
down Chesapeake Bay, Secre-
tary Cobb invited a number of
Notwithstanding those of For
eign Ministers, to 60 with him.
Among them was the Presi-
dents niece, after whom the
vessel had been named. They
made an excursion OF a week.
When they came back, Presi-
dent Buchanan held that the
Treasury ought not to be
saddled with the expense, and
gave notice that all the bills in
excess of what was proper for
a ship actually on duty, should
be sent to him, and he would
defray them on bis own private
account, making the entertain
ment one given by himself.
Mr.. Cobb, Secretary of the
Treasury, heard of the Presi-
dents decision, and anticipated
him by paying the bill himself.
The Government paid only the
actual cost of working the ship.
New ideas grow up with new
rulers, and and we have now a
President and Secretary of the
Navy who appropriate the ships
OF the navy to the private uses
OF the head of the Government
as pleasure yachts. The Har-
rlsburg pa Patriot gives pub
licity to this statement, which
is certainly very creditable to
the officials of the olden time.
but, by contrast, not so credit
able to their successors.-[N.

Latin Prescriptions.

The New York Journal of Com
merce is urging a change in the
method of writing medical pre-
scriptions
Amy one who has examined
these extraordinary productions
of practieing physicians (says the
editor must have been surprised,
not that mistakes are sometimes
made by which the lives of I'M
fortunate patients are sacrificed,
but that the majority are served
with the medicines which were
intended in the order. The re-
form we propose consists of a
change from the dead language
to ordinary vernacnlar. The OBJ
lection to this is that it would do
away with the mysterious pre-
scription, and the patient by ex-
amining the order could learn for
himself what he was expected to
swallow. We still insist that this
would be an Incidental advantage
instead of a serious objection, and
we repeat our recommendation
that all prescriptions to be CON-
pounded by the druggist be writ.
ten in plain English. AS some
of the doctors will object the Leg
islature should require it under
heavy penalty. If any patient
still wishes to be kept in the dark
let the physician compound the
dose himself, or have it done by
his verbal order; but let all pre-
scriptions in dead language be
absolutely prohibited. There has
not been case Of fatal error in
reading a prescription, which has
come under our notice, where the
miStaks would have been at all
probable if the rule we propose
had been adopted. In our former
discussion, we cited many illus
trations. The recent sad death
by an overdose of ammonia is an
other added to the list. The ply
stefan ordered: Aq. Calcis, Tinct.
Opii, Aq. Canaan. Had he writ
ten 'lime-water, laudanam, and
cinnamon there would have been
no room for the fatal error. Those
who practice on the homeopathic
system furnish their own medicines
to the patients at their bed-sides,
and this is not, after all, a bad
precedent for the allopathists to
follow. At any rate if they must
risk the compromising by unknown
parties. the least they ought to be
compelled to do for the public
safety is the writing of the order
in plain English.

listing laws, for an increase of
pension and was replied to by
G. S. Trevitt for the Commits
sioner, Hon. John Van Aernam.
In this reply he was informed
that sit is necessary that the
loyalty of the fonr physicians
who have given testimony
should be clearly proved be-
fore their affidavits can be re-
ceived."
Thus, in this land of fraterni-
ty and equal rights, under the
best Government that the
| world has ever seen, an aged
| pensioner, who is entitled by
his services to the beneficent
care of the Administration, is
informed by the agent of the
Government that his case can
not be even so much as consid-
cred until he establishes the
loyalty Of the four physicians
who have testified in his favor.
He is not required to prove that
they are men of honor, truth
and yeracity, but to prove that
they are 'loyal!"
Heretofore it has been a rule
of law that all men were con-
sidered innocent until they
were proved to be guilty. My
Lord Coke used to say that that
which is not proven is not
"What doth not appear is not
in the law and it doth not ap-
pear judicially until after judy
ment." Under this ruling,
which is indeed the ruling of
common sense, all citizens must
be regarded as loyal who have
not been regularly convicted of
treason. To exclude men as
witnesses from courts of JUS
tice, because of their political
opinions, is a most gross and
hagrant act of usurpation.-
What has a mans political
opinions to do with his compe-
tency Or credit as a witness
In the case at issue the rul-
ing OF the Commission is in eff
feet a denial of justice. The
petitioner is an old man. He
would have to travel a hundred
miles in a mountainous region
in order to reach a pension sur
geon. This he cannot do. The
other physicians are regarded
as sufficient, if their loyalty be
established: but, as it has never
been properly attacked, and as
the proof of a negative is al
ways difficult, this poor old
broken soldier must, we sup
pose, go without his pension.
When the prejudices of a
pension agent are to furnish a
higher, law than recorded stat
utes and constitutions, it is
time for lis to pause and en-
quire-Whither are we tend
lndY Be it remembered that
under the ruling of the pension
Office all men in the South, par

Where Lillian, the baby, slept,
Softly the father stopped to lay
His rough hand down in loving way,
When dream or whisper made her stir,
And huskily he said Not hertz

And one long ray of lamplight shed
Athwart the boyish faces there,
In sleep so beautiful and fair. oil.

And kissed him as we hurried by.

Still in his sleep bore sufferings trace.

He whispered, while our eyes we're dim.
Poor Dick bad Dick our hayward SON
Turbulent, reckless, idle one
Could he be spared Nay, He who gave,
Bid us befriend him to the grave;
Only mothers heart could be
Patient enough for such as he
"And So said John, Il would not dare
To send HIM from her bedside prayer
Then stole 'Se softl,, up above,
And knelt by Mary, child of love
Perhaps for her twould better be"
said to John. Quite silently
He lifted up curl that lay
Across her check in willful way,
And shook his head. NAY, love, not thee
The while my heart beat audibly.
Only one more, our eldest lad,
Trusty and truthful, good and glad
Solike his father.-"No, John, no.;
cannot, viii not, let him 60"
And SO we " rote, in courteous way,
We could not give one child away
And afterward, toll lighter seemed,
Thinking of that of which We dreamed.
Happvin truth, that not one face
We missed from its accustomed place
Thankful TO work for all the seven,
Trusting the rest to One in Heaven.
