PENSION DEPARTMENT,
w AgtrrNnnnN1 N n

MADAME: Your claim, No. 6000l002.
0030O0i, Navy Mothers, has been before
this department some eight or ten
years. If you were eighty-four years OF
age then, you must be ninety. four now,
and it would be manifestly unfair, not
to say impracticable, for this depart.
ment to deal with woman of ninety
four as If she were woman of eighty.
four. The Information furnished this
department is so meagre that we can
not proceed even to consider yourclaim
without further proof. AT present we
simply know that your son was killed
in service and you need a pension. OBJ
viously that's too thin. Permit me to
call your attention to the enclosed que
ries, and TO remind you that perjury
is one Of the greatest vices.
Respectfully, your obedient servant,
j. III. BUNCoMBE,
Commissioner.
Well, the old lady put on her specs,
ard lid, too, and we read as follows:
1. What was the name of your sou I?
.. Who was he named after, and did
he give him a silver cup? If yes, let
this department have certified copy,
in duplicate, Of the receipted bill if
not, why not?
3. How old was he?
4. How happened he to attain that
age without being married?
>. Did he leave you any effects? no
books, no jewels, no Etruscan vases, no
costly silver service, no piano? fyes,
where did he get 'em? If no, this de-
partment is sorry.
6. Have you assigned this claim TO
any agent? If yes, don't you see
you've broken the law; if not, how can
you expect to get claim through with
out an agent?
7. Please send this Department, in
triplicatc, proof that you have a bona
.Jlde interest in this claim, and that no
maiden sister is to share it with you,
and thus live surreptitiously on this
Department.
8. 1t is necessary for you to come to
Washington in person. If you do, you
will be told what it is necessary to
prove; if you don't, this Depart ment
is absolved from further interest in the
premises.
When | read this to the Old lady, she
took snuff, turned her face TO the wall,
hauled up her knees, vowed she didn't
care cuss for the pension anyhow, and
gave up the ghost.
Then / wrote the Commissioner that
she was dead, and he wrote me that he
was sorry, but he really didn't see what
that had to do with her claim. He said
her heirs must carry it on. 1 replied
she had no heirs. He said he wanted
proof, in triplicate of that fact, and sent
me string of que tstions to answer about
my name and birth and circumstances,
evidently hoping to make me crazy.
l sent them back, and hang me if he
hasn' just sent an officer here with in
structions to arrest me, unless 1 can
prove that
l. / was vaccinnated before l first
sent on the old lady's application.
.. was Of full age when l married
and
3, l am not the old lady herself in
disguise, aud endeavoring to swindle
the government out of S. a month.
Consequently, advise all old ladies
who have hopes, TO relinquish them,
and advise all young men who have
old ladies to get rid of them.
Yours truly,
Hon. NJ. II. JUGG, ESQ.

A Thoughtful Boy.

A precocious youth of Altoona, Penn,
having surreptitiously obtained pack
age of powder and cigar stump, the
other evening, soon realized the fact
that the way of the transgressor is hard.
While smoking the cisar-stump, he
saw his mother coming toward him,
and at once slid the cigar, into the pock
ct containing the powder. His hand,
the cigar, and the powder got out Of
that pocket "quicker'n blazes," and
the youthful hero is now securely "bot-
tied up" for few days rest at home.
This Altoona boy was thoughtful be.
yond his years. Realizing that he had
no right to be smoking, he provided
the means to blow himself up, and thus
save his mother that trouble. How
few children are thus thoughtful to keep
unnecessary care from their parents.
And when we remember how much
anxiety in the tender years of infancy,
etc, etc.

POetical.
Hcspcridcs.

HcsncrlucS,
Our fathers in the olden time,
Through hopes and fears, on unknown seas
Sailed evermore from cline to cline
In search Of the lIesperides.
Far of, beneath the silent West.
With troubled waters rolled between
The gardens of eternal rest,
In dreams as vague as life were seen.
The golden apples, now as then,
BY dragons guarded with such care,
Seem better to the sons of men
Than orchards nearer home can bear.
Somewhere, beyond the sunset seas
Our helpless human natures cry,
THE islands ofuncnding ease
And neyer-ceasing summer lie."
The routes we choose, the charts We use,
Are various rs our varied ships;
And ever as the stars we lose
In some Euroclydon eclipse,
Our feeble hearts within us fail,
And we grow weary Of ogr lot
AS through the dark we drift, and hail
The longed-for, Heavenly Harbor not.
VII
o, fellow-Voysge ger! to whom
The land seems far, the billows cold:
We may not, without pain, presume
To pluck the tabled fruit of gold.
VIII
With patience working, let us take,
In reverent faith and childlike trust,
The winds food as they may break
About our little lives OF dust.
TX
Our ships will reach, full soon, q shore
Cio-c sheltered from the surging seas,
Where Doubt and Danger guard no more
The groves of the Hcspcrides.

that Grant has o 10 votes less in 1872 than
be had in 1868. although be received at the
last election fully 200 Democratic votes
This shows plainly that he was not popular
with the Republicans themselves. Greeley
has 4gj votes less than Seymour had. Al
least 800 Democrats stayed away from the

According to this, if MI the Democrats
