For the FrtcmIn
Astronomical Expedition to COrdOVa'

Dr. B. A. Gould of Cambridge, Mass,
ex- President of the American Scientific Asso-
citation, some time since received call from
the Argentine government to organize and
establish an Astronomical Observatory at
Cordova, S. A. Being a personal friend OF
the President, Mr.. Sarmiento, he accepted.
DR.. Gould left recently, ria Europe, to en-
ter upon his duties. The Equatorial Tele-
scope and the Observatory buildings, together
with some other Accomplishments, were made
in Cambridge, and will be shipped direct to
Cordova.
DIR. Gould has selected four assistants to
aid him in his labors, three of whom are
from Pennsylvania, and one from Vermont
The latter is c. L. Hathaway, A. B., for
merly of Calais, and graduate of the Nor
wich University, Mortified, Vermont. He
graduated with honors in the class of 1869.
The expenses of the expedition will be de-
frayed by the Argentine Republic DR..
Gould and party are going for a term of three
years, but they will probably remain longer,
as the Observatory is to be permanent one
under the government
These are the main facts in regard to the
expedition but that which interests us
NOES - che national pride with which our
hearts are stirred when We think that from
New England, science and civilization are TO
extend their blessings, and be transplanted
into the untitled soil of the great Argentine
Republic. We are glad, too, that our Green
Mountain State will be so ably represented
in the expedition by one of her most prom
ising sons.
Mr.. Hathaway, who is now visiting his
friends in Mansfield, Will leave about the
18th inst, for Cordova ria Buenos Ayres
lie regrets leaving his native country and
State; but feeling that science holds the
first claim upon his time and talents, he has
consented to e1patriate himself for a season.
1t may be of interest to state that the
city of Cordova is the capital of a state of
the same name, and the second city in the
Republic. 1t numbers some % 900 inhabit-
ants. 1t is quite an old city, and has, I'M
derstand, some fourteen acres covered with
Catholic edifces. In them may yet be seen
the instruments of torture used by the in
QUESTION some 200 years ago. We trust
this expedition in behalf of science may do
something towards check mating Impractical
workings of the Papal InfallbiIity dogma in
that far-of and somewhat benighted region.

worn, emaciated bodies which died, Scared
and mangledI by the grim enginery OF
war, but rounded, perfect bodies, OF which
Christ's perfect risen body was both type
and pledge.
Strewing these flowers on the graves thus
is an expression also of the sympathy and
heart-interest which we soldiers, when down
there, 80 much needed. 1t was not musket
and cannon, shot and shell, valor and disci-
pline alone that won the victory. Back of
these was the deep under-setting current of
heart-power at the north, together with the
prayers of those who could not, for their
sex, 90. AS the river that forms the sound
ing waterfall, or drives the multitudinous
wheels of industry, would soon be dry, be-
coming useless for these things, unless fed
by the rilIs, brooks, and springs from
thousand hill-sides so unless the soldiers
had been sustained by the many kindly
thoughts, acts, wishes, prayers of those left
behind, the victory had not been ours. How
it did the heart good, the sympathy shown
by the presents through the Sanitary and
Christian Commissions, the little reminders
of the love of the people at the north. Be-
sides all these things were the letters sent
down there, letters from loving ones at home,
coming by the wagon load.
And the love which prompted these things,
now that the smoke of battle rolls away and
the scars of the conflict are less tender, puts
bouquet above the grave of the father, son ,
husband or lover. Let it still be done,-let
it be link binding the past and future
gently, yet firmly, together. 1t is well that
thh children do thIsS With them are-ths
issues of the coming age. 1t will foster a
spirit of patriotism, and keep before their
minds wildly the sacrifices their fathers
made for them. We speak proudly of our
fathers being in the war of 1872, or in the
Revolution. So coming generations will
revere the memory of those who fought or
fell in this greater struggle for truth and
freedom.

Pensions for Soldiers and Sailors
the War of 1872.

The following is an abstract Of the bill. r.
ported by Mr.. WILLARD from the Committee
on Revolutionary Pensions and war Of 1910.
and passed by the House of Representatives
recently;
The first section provides that the Secreta-
ry of the Interior be authorized and directed
to place on the pension roll the names Of the
surviving officers and enlisted and drafted
men, including militia and volunteers. Of the
military and naval service of the United
States who served, consecutiveiy, three
months in the war with Great Britain of
1917, and were bonorably discharged, and
who are in circumstances which render them
dependent upon their own labor, or who are
dependent upon others for support, and who
at no time during the late rebellion against
the authority of the United States adhered to
the cause of the enemies of the Government.

the functions of any Office whatever under
any authority or pretended authority in hos

!4lity TO the United States, and who shall
take and subscribe an oath 20 support the
Consultation of the United States.
The second section provides that this act
thall not apply to any person who is depend
~ apon Others for support, in pursuance OF
Contract for such support based upon
valuable consideration, nor to any person who
is receiving pension at the rate OF eight dol
Jars or more per month, nor to any person
|receivinga pension less than eight dollars per
month, except for the difference between the
pension now received and eight dollars per
month. Pensions under this act shall be at
the rate of eight dollars per month, except as
herein provided when a person is receiving u
pension of less than eight dollars per month,
and shall be paid to the persons entitled
thereto from and after the time when their
names are placed upon the pension-rolls for
|and during the term of their natural lives.
ahe third section provides that before the
pane OF any person shall be placed on the
pension-rolI under this act, proof shall be
made, under such rules and regulations as
the Secretary of the Interior may prescribe,
that the applicant is entitled to a pension
under the provisions of this act and any
person who shall falsely take any oath re-
quired to be taken under the provisions of
this act shall be guilty of perjury and the
Secretary of the Interior shall cause to be
stricken from the pension-roll the name of
any person whenever it shall appear, by
proof satisfactory to him, that such name
was put upon such roll through false or
fraudulent representations as to the right of
such person to a pension under the provisions
of this act. The loss of certificate of dis
charge shall not deprive the applicant of the
benefits of this act, but other proof of Ser
Woes performed and of an honorable discharge,
if satisfactory, shall be deemed sufficient.
The fourth section provides that the pro-
visions of sections twelve and thirteen of an
a-~A----.sAlsd- - An -a0t supplementary TO an
act to grant pensions" approved July 4,
1864, and of sections two, three, and four,
of an act entitled f" An act supplementary
to several acts relating TO pensions, approved
June 8, 1866, shall be applicable to the pen
sions granted by this act.
The bill was amended in the House, so as
to include the widows Of soldiers married
prior to or during the war. 1t passed by
nearly unanimous vote, and it will probably
pass the Senate whenever the Committee of
that body reports it.

Nearer one still,
And a dearcr one,

will be stroked no more. But the first poig-
nant grief of other days has given away to a
recoucilement to the ways of Him who doeth
all things well.
No offering would now be appropriate,
with our chastened sorrow, but flowers.
Hence the effort to make the thirtieth day of
May a national holiday is to be deprecated.
We don't want it to be another Fourth of
July, for the swapping Of fre-crackers and
roar of artillery. We want a quiet day
one on which we can 90 to the graves of the
martyred boys, drop tear there, and with
subdued sadness laya bunch of flowers above
their last resting place. Anything ostenta-
tious would smite harshly,-anything noisy
would seem out of place. If the brave fell
lows now know what we do, it must surely
be more pleasing to them to see this exquis-
tie way of showing our regard for their
bravery.
Besides this, the flowers strewn on the
graves are emblcmatic of the resurrection of
the dead. Last year they grew, blossomed
in beauty, gave way to the ripeninS seed, the
upright stalk decayed and sank to the earth,
so that there seemed nothing lefs. Through
the frozen winter, cold and dreary as it was,
there was no sign of life, and but for the
knowledge of the processes of nature, one
would have said that all was passed with
| them. But it was not so. In due time there
came sunshine and rain, so that the frightened
grasp of winter yielded to the joyous spring
The damp mold grew warm under the rays Of
the sun, the subtitle forces of nature began
their work, the seeds became swollen, burs,
their covering, and sought the light of the
sun that was calling to them so lovingly from
above. Then the leaves grew, the stalk shot
upward, the buds appeared, and the blossoms
which we have used in so loving way were
quick to show their beauty.
Something like this will it be with those
we have honored this dedication season
Their strong, manly, stalwart forms fell be
meath the blighting touch of disease, by the
fostering wound of the shot or sabre-stroke
or were torn into bleeding, quivering frag
ments by the screaming shell. During tn,
long dark night, the dreary winter of death
their bodies will lie here and there in the
earth, some at home, some on the many
battle-felds of that sanguinary struggle
thousands beside the prison-pens of Salisbury
and Andersonville. Everywhere they will
mingle with the dust. Age upon age may
roll its ceaseless round, yet all will not have
passed with the silent sleepers. Gods eter-
nal spring for them approaches, the resur
reetion day. And they will rise, not tn,

The Soldiers Graves.

Laying flowers on the graves of the depart
ed ones is a most beautiful expression of re-
gard for the memory of them, as they lie
beneath the growing grass, their bodies be-
coming dust again. The dead have gone to
God. and the flowers are q constant reminder
of that God,-so beautiful are they, so ex-
quisite, the incompatible work of the Maker
and Master Artist. Though plucked from
the stem, the flowers give forth fragrance
though crushed by the foot of the passer-by,
they still are sweet to the smell and so the
memory of those soldiers who gave up their
lives for our good, who were trodden down
by the iron heel of war, is still fragrant to
us.
The Persians have beau tiful couplet :
- Thou hast gone, but regret for thee is left
in our hearts as the ashes of the fire of the
departed caravan in the DESERT We would
not wholly Danish regret for those brave ones
who fell in our country's defense, and surely
cannot Danish thought of them Times
changes, which wear the marble tombstone,
effacing the name carved there, or which
chips grain by grain the granite monument
till il is smooth, have been blotting from the
page of memory many bright hope, expe-
rience and reality; or, 1t may be, blotting
from that page sorrow, disappointment, grief.
Time has taken away some of the sharp sting
of grief that we felt as they told US that the
loved ones were dead lis we'll We would
not always brood over those things that hurt
us: would not clasp tighter the gnawing
viper. We would not be forever casting
thought backward to the sorrows or Joys
either, of the past. A present, earnest, live,
big with passing events, is upon US.
The gone ones are missed indeed, always
will be, but the keen sorrow is past. The
empty chair is no longer set to the accus-
toned place at the table, where it was for
months and though it still is empty, and
ever must be, it is put back in the corner Of
the room. The manly form is no longer seen
in the household the buOyant step is heard
no more but there is not that " restless
unsatisfed longing of the days when we frs;
knew they never more would be seen OF

head, over which mothers, wife's, OF
