New York, October 1.-The following
is from Washington special of the LIST
to the Tribune: ~.
The Commissioner Of Pensions has
decided to accept the proposition OF the
Treasury Department to furnish checks
TO be used in payment of pensions.
These checks will be furnished at cost,
and are to be printed on chameleon
paper, which, it is claimed, cannot be
counterfeited or altered, thereby insur-
ing greater security to the Government,
as well as to the pensioners. They are
to be engraved on steel, and will be sim
liar to the ordinary Treasury check.
About two hundred and twenty-five
clerks in the Government departments
here will soon take their ten days leave
to 20 to Ohio and vote. A still greater
number will have the same number OF
days to 60 home to vote in Pennsyl-
vania. gI
The agents of the Hamburg and Amer
lean Steamship Packet Company, in
New Orleans, have written to the Post
master General informing him that they
have decided to resume the running of
the line of steamers between New Or
leans and Europe, touching at Havana
and San Salvador, and ask for the privil-
eye of carrying the mails for Havana and
Spain, which privilege it is probable the
postmaster will grant
The following is from a Washington
special to the Times: ides
The Southern Claim Commissioners
will resume their sittings in this city
during the present week, During Vaca-
ton opinions have been prepared by the
members on about one hundred and fifty
cases, and the decisions will at once be
rendered.
