"WEsrwARD Ho!" exclaims the Buf.
fa 10 Commercial Advertiser. and then ].
says: "The general unsatisfactory con-
dition ofmercan'ile affairs. and the cloud
OF uncertainty which has hing. and still
hangs. over the business future. has caused
many to relinquish their business connec-
tions in the older States of the East. and
to seek new fields for enterprise. 10
most cases where . change of location
has been resolved upon. it has resulted
in Q selection of the States and Terrific.
ries in the far West. From appearances.
we have reason to believe that the tide
Of emigration to the trans Mississippi
country will exceed that Of any previons
year. The present movement is not
caused BY undue excitement. nor BY ex-
aggerated rumors, bnt is tho result Of
nsturs reflection. and an honest effort to
secure new homes, at once desirable and

Is Discharged for DisabiIify''-zm.
pOrlant 10 Soldiers.

The decision rendered this week in the
Supreme Court, in the case OF the United
States against Hosmer. is one of more
than ordinary interest to a large class OF
persons who are the last to find out their
own rights, and too often the FRS. to be
imposed upon by their attorneys or
agents. The Supreme Court, after consid-
erable delay. now decides squarely that
soldiers who enlisted in 1861, for three
years or the war, and were discharged on
surgeons certificates of disability within
two years. are entitled to 500 bounty.
equally with those who were discharged
for wounds, or the heirs of those killed.
This decision. too. is final. and ends tie
m after. The case arose ON an appeal
from the Illinois Court Of Claims. A
Judgment was given by that court for the
claimant for 500 honn,y for enli,tment
under the Presidents call for volunteers
in 1861. he having been di>charged for
disability upon a surgeons certificate.
The question was whether. under the act
Of Congress ratiiying the act OF the Ex-
ecutive, the claimant could ever recover,
the act providing that two years. service
should have been rendered to entitle the
soldiers to the bounty. unless discharged
for wounds. MIR. Justice Swsyns deliv-
cred the opinion Of the court. holding
substantially that the proclamation Of the
President and the general orders Of the
War Department stipulsting to pay
500 for each volunteer, followed by the
enlistment Of the claimant. constituted
valid contract between the Government
and the claimant. upon which he was en-.
titled to the bounty. affirming the judg-
ment of the courts below.
We trust the widest publicity will be
given to the decision through Union pa.
pers. posts OF the grand army. and by all
friends OF the soldier There are large
numbers Of invalid discharged soldiers
who will come under this decision. and
their claims have been so long deferred
that probably the greater part Of them
nave long ago given up oil hope or ex-
pectation of getting snything.-Phiadef-

TEXAS CATTLE. Texas paper points
out change which has taken place in the
BUSINESS of fattening and killing Texas
cattle for market. 1t observes:
For long period Chicago was its
great centre. bnt now few herbs. are lat
tened there. This trade has removed
westward into Missouri and Kansas
Consequently. great cattle route has
sprung up through onr northern counties,
and the Indian Territory. and it is be-
lieved that when the Kansas and Texas
Railroad shall be completed it will take
the bulk Of the cattle trade from our State.
Already the farmers in our northern
counties find that they can kill and sell
their calves for nearly enough money to
buy beef from the southwest. This,
fed during the winter with their rough
feed and corn that has no other market,
brings them iu the spring large price
from the Kansas dealers. When the
Railroad communication to Northern
markets becomes open to them, Northern
Texas will share much more largely than
it does now, with Kansas nnd Missouri.

our far Western prairies.

THREE SENATORS MARY Clemmer
Ames remembers this OF Senators Revels,
Brownlow and Drake: There was one.
now a Senator Of the United States. who
eight years before asked for an obscure
seat in the Senate gallery in vain. He
could not pass its doors because his skin
was a shade darker than the door-keeper:
though his mother was a Scotch won an
and his father free man. There, quiv.
ering with palsy in every limb. sat an
other. who few wears ago prayed that
II he dad at the North his coffin might
be m ade open at one end, 40 that he could
crawl away from the abolitionists. There
was smother man. shaking hands with
the Senator of darker face, who, few
years sgo. presented bill to the Legis-
lature of Missouri that all free men OF col
or in that State shonld bs sold into slav-
cry. which bill would have included that
Senator with whom he was shsking
hands. These three men are all friends
to-day. Well. the old earth moves!
