Mrs. LINCoLN's PENsIoN.-The bill
which has been before congress for
some months, granting a yearly pen
sion of $4,000 to president Lincoln's
widow, passed the senate on the 18th
inst, by vote of % to 90. What
will the widow OF many a poor soldier
who lost his life in battle or persisted
miserably in hospital, say to this, as
she ekes out a suffering life on her
pittance of 500 a year? And what
should the constituents of those con-
gressmen who voted for the granting
OF this pension, say? No greater
outrage than this has been perpetra-
ted upon the people-no deeper insult
to the sorrowing and suffering wild
ows Of dead soldiers. How can the
lips of such speak a prayer for the
welfare of the nation while they can
not well smother the rising curse in
their hearts atthis species of legisla-
tion? What has Mrs. Lincoln done
for her country that it should grant
her this annuity? During the war
she was strongly suspected Of treason,
and Of giving information to the reb-
els that would have caused the hang.
ing Of humber citizen. Why this
friendship for her? Her husband
left her in aifluence. Why then arc
the widows and orphans of worthier
ones robbed to fatten this Babylon.

Death from Delirium TremenS.

On Friday morning, at four o'clock,
Prof. ?. 5. koontz, an inmate Of the
Dauphin county PENN prison, died
in all the horrors of dclirium tremens.
The history of this man and his case
is remarkable one. He was born
Of staid and reputable parents, in the
vicinity of York Springs, Pa. At an
early age he was sent to Europe to
finish an education, the basis of which
was already well laid. He exhibited
unusual talent, and graduated with
honors from several institutions Of
learning in the old country, having
studied law, medicine, and finally the
ology, his intention being to become a
minister of the gospel. In this coun-
try he held professorship5 in several
colleges-one at Gettysburgh-being
a proficient in the languages, speaking
thirty seven different tongues.
During the last two years his ca
recr had been downward. He had
taken to the intoxicating bowl, and all
his relatives could do to reclaim him
was in vain. He spent patrimony
Of $4,000 left him at the death of his
father. His mother spent $4,000 or
$4,000 upon him in her efforts to save
her son from ruin. His sister con-
tributcd her share of a distributed eS-
tate, $4,000, in the same cause. All
this money he drank up in liquor
On the 9th of this month he was
elected from a prominent house in
Harrisburg, having become perfect
nuisance. He then had fits of delir-
ium tremens, and was placed in the
county Jail for safe keeping.
On last Saturday week he was dis
charged and went into the country,
promising to behave better in the fu-
ture. No sooner had he again freed
himself from prison than he bound
himself in rum. Entering tavern he
drank four glasses at the bar before
he could be checked, and in few mo.
ments afterward he fell in fit on the
floor, having forty spasms in success
sion. Here he lay for a day or so in
a very precarious condition. Thus
he existed, drinking and suffering, for
days living upon the charities of the
country people. He was quarrel
some, slanderous, unbearable; and
the community had him arrested and
committed to Jail again on a charge
of common drunkenness and SANDER
The case was settled, the prosecutor
paying the costs.
No sooner was he liberated than he
went back to his country haunts and
recommended his drunken, vitupera
tive crusade. The spasms continued
and it was deemed necessary to pu
him in confinement, and on Friday
week he was taken for the last time
and reincarcerated in the county Jail
Everything that could be done TO give
rest to and restore the unfortunat,
mans nervous system was performed
with care. The patient was wild ant
incorrigible. Demons, ho5-goblins-
anything and everything horrible
haunted him. He tore up his cot
crept under it, over it, struck at tn,
wall, and, indeed, experienced all ;
human being can feel in the horror
of delirium tremens. He died afte
spending the night unconscious, abou
30 years of age. His eyes protrude'
from their sockets, the result of frigh
! and overstraining of the muscles.

The Oregonian says: at is now evident
that if the Republicans throughout the
state had been perfectly united and har-

have succeeded. The majorities against
them are very small, and they have lost
the Legislature, when less than fifty addi-
tional votes, if they had been secured where
needed, would have saved it."
