PENSION BILL.

The general pension bill which has
passed Congress makes an important
change In the manner Of paying pen
sions. 1t provides for the payment
quarterly instead of semi-annually,
viz, i'm September, December, March
and June. 1t requires the pension
Agents TO furnish vouchers to each
pensioner, forbds payment To any
claim agent, attorney, broker. or to
any person except the pensioncI; il
reduces the fees OF the Agent to about
one-half the present charge, and the
fees hereafter are to be paid 10y the
Government and not by the pension
ers. The bill will greatly increase the
work and responsibility at the Agen-
cies, but it is, in many respects, an
improvement over the present system,
especially in forbidding the Agents,
under heavy penalties, from recogniz-
ing any "ciaim agents." attorneys,
or "brokers,n in the payment Of the
soldiers due. The money must go 10
the pensioner and no one else. Claim
agents who are accustomed 10 advance
money 10 pensioners, expecting 10
collect the pension with large interest,
will do well to govern themselves ac-
cordingly. .-IndidnIDolis JurRdi.

the man who smoked was the mau

Fortunate il that man who. In the

"a picture gallery of loving faces that

sunny years which includes gentle

MINE AND THINE.

Every wedding. says a proverb.

Never yet was any marriage
Entered in the book of fate
But the names were also written
OF the patient pair that wait.

For the flowers, the feast. the wine;
Thine, perchance. my dearest lady.

Several days before the appearance Of the ar

of the Lecture Committee remark that ii 1t could
possibly be arranged, Gen. X would be engaged
to lecture here, some time between the last ana
the next lecture regularly announced and such
we believe was the intention. As one who earn
estly wishes to hear again the gallant General
tell his tale, we trust the intention may be carried
out, but it hardly seems to US that the course
taken by Plurrmi" IS liable to produce such
a result, and we protest, this time in the name OF
Gen. fitzpatrick, "dcirer as from our friends.

Annexation of Canada.

1t is a fact full Of significance that pub
lie meeting, composed of more than three
hundred French Canadians, was held in Mon
treal on Friday evening last, avowedly to
discuss the question of annexation to the
United States. Among the speakers were L..
J. Papineau and Pierre Blanchet Both of
these gentlemen, to be sure, represent the ex-
IRENE anti-English sentiment Of the Province,
aud have long been conspicuous in their adj
vocacy Of any scheme which looked to the
separation of the country from foreign control.
But nothing is more clearly foreshadowed in
the future than the annexation or ndepen-
dence Of the Canadas Their material in.
feriority is source Of constant aud increasing
irritation to intelligent men Of all classes.
With soil, climate and natural advantages
equal to those enjoyed by the United States,
they find themselves far behind them in every
department Of industry, and in every element
Of prosperity, The idea is continually grow
ing that this iuferiority is the direct result Of
Colonial dependence, and with it is gradually
but surely developing the idea that there can
be no thorough improvement until there shall
be a radical change in the status of the poo.
