Important TO Soldiers.

The following letter, with the annexed
endorsement with which it was returned
contains Information important to sol
diers at this time:
WASHINGTON, d. c., Mar. 81 30.
Sir:-In the Washington Chronicle of
this day I find the following
THE LATE BOUNTY DECISION.-A
correspondent asks us to state the exac
purport of the decision recently given
by Mr.. Justice Swayne, of the United
States Supreme Court, in the case of the
United States VS.. Hosmer. The decis-
ion referred to is. if we rightly compre-
bend it, to the following effect: Hereto
fore soldiers have been required to prove
that they had served two years before
they received the 500 bounty. The
decision of the court remOves this pro-
viso, and now ii is to be understood that
all those men who enlisted under the
calls for volunteers which promised 500
bounty if they can show an honorable
discharge, no matter how short their
term OF service, are entitled to the 500
bounty"
Will you please inform me whether
you are authorized by this decision to
pay bounties to all soldiers without ref
erence to length of time they were in the
service, who a show an honorable dis
charge. Very respectfully.
JOHN BEATTY.
Hon L. B. FRENCH,
Second Auditor, Washington, D. C.
lENDoRsEMENT.1
Respectively returned. The newspa-
pers have given the Office a vast amount
of trouble by misstating the action of
Congress, the courts and the accounting
officers subject of bounties. The enclosed
on the article is one of this class.
The first call for three year men by
the President was made May 5, 1861, for
1904 officers and volunteers. On the
4th of May 1861, General Order No. Is
wa issued under that call, in which GER
tain pay was promised, and in addition,
when honorably discharged, one hun
dred dollars.
No other call for volunteers was made
until after the passage of July q, 1861,
which authorized the raising of 800, 900.
and promised q bounty of q hundred
dollars to each soldier when honorably
discharged, al he shall hare served for a
period Of tUo gears Or during the 1gar, II
sooner ended" With this exception, the
provisions relating to pay and bounty
were identified with the orders of the
War Department. As there was no
legal authority for the call of May Sd,
1871 or the General Order No. Is promis-
ing bounty, the act of August 6, 1851,
was passed; approving and legalizing
them; yet 1t was held that the act Of
July 2, 1861, was retroactive as well as
prospective, and bounty was denied 10 \
soldier discharged for disability. who
enlisted under the call of May 5, 1861.
Vhe had not served tlDo years.
The court holds that soldiers enlistinp
under the call are all entitled to one
hundred dollars, if they have not recei-
we'd it, SO that the decision only applies
TO such soldiers as enlisted on or after
May 4, 1861, and prior TO the passage of
the act of July ., 1861, which presented
a different condition.

The Fires.

During the past week our city has
been visited by two fires. The first
occurred on Thursday, about noon, and
caught in the roof of the residence of
Mr.. John Spear, on South street. For
tunately the fire was discovered before
it had made much Roadway and was ex-
tinguished by the vigorous application
of water with buckets, before any great
mount of damage was done. The in
surance on the building will repair all
damages.
The second fire, occurring on Saturday,
at y NJ, was of a more serious nature.
resulting in the total destruction of the
dwelling house of Mr.. James Culbertson,
on the Bazetta road, The fire was first
discovered upon the reof of the build
ing, and is supposed to have been caused
by sparks falling from the chimney. The
day was warm and dry, and the flames,
famed by a strong wind, spread with
great rapidity. The fire department
came to time as promptly as the distance
and proper water facilities would admit,
but before the engine got fairly into
operation the building was nearly con-
sumed. Strenuous efforts were made
by the citizens to save the household
furniture and other goods, but they
were driven back in every attempt by
the devouring element, and but a few
articles were saved. There was no in
surance upon the property and conse-
quently the loss falls heavily upon the
aged couple, who have the sympathy of
the entire community.

Clothing.

This week we give publication to sew
eral clothing advertisements, each of
which promises to clothe the naked at
fabulously low prices. The competition
in this line of business, in Warren, is
great, and hence the natural result is
that ready-made clothing a be pur-
chased cheaper here than in any other
city. These advertisers are all men of
experience, and to speak favorably of
one more than another, would be an act
of injustice. We herewith give the
locality of the paper in which each
advertisement may be found, so that
that those anticipating a purchase may
know what they say, and where they can
be found. D. NJ. Lazarus, first column,

The American BrOiIer.

This new article of household ware has
been introduced into this city by James
Reed Sons. The achievements claimed
for this culinary invention are browning.
It is a plain and unpretending ~utensil, as
simple as a pot or skillet. 1t is claimed
that it will broil a steak owe an average
fire in from seven to eight minutes, re-
tanning all the juices and flavor which is
lost by the old method, and is so adapted
that it can be used on any sized stove or
range opening. 1t can also be arranged
to toast bread, bake potatoes, eggs, APP
pies, pop corn, and roast coffee more
evenly and with less attention than by
any other method.
