THE Provisions OF THE New Pen
SION LAw.-The new pension law con-
tains several provisions which are of
general interest. All persons who
have lost leg above the knee, and
are so disabled thereby that they can
not use an artificial limb, shall be "a
ted in the second.class and receive
S24 per month. All persons having
lost the hearing of both ears to receive
$l3 per month. Section 5 proyides
that the rate of $18 per month may
be proportionately divided for any
degree of disability established for
which the second section makes no
provision. The old law provides for
the rates between So and S18. In the
organization of the Pension Bureau
important changes are made. The
new law PROVIDES Tor the appointment
by the president of a Deputy Com
missioner Of Pensions, with salary
Of $4,000 per annum. The efficacy of
the bureau is increased by provision
Tor the appointment of a duly qualified
surgeon as q medical referee, with a
salary Of $4,000 per annum, who shall
have charge of the examination and
revision Of the reports of examining
surgeons and such other professional
matters as may be referred to him by
the commissioner, the new law adds
two years to the limitationunder which
pension claims may be established. H.
Fees for medical examination have
been increased So, excepting in the
case of the Board of Examiners, each
member being entitled to receive
only 81.

Domestic Experience.

Putting a hoop on the family flour
barrel is an operation that will hardly
bear an encore. The woman generally
attempts it before the man comes
home to dinner She sets the hoop
up Oh the end Of the slaves, takes a
deliberate aim with the rolling-pin,
and then shutting both eyes, brings
the pin down with all the force of one
arm, while the other instinctiyely
shields her face. Then she makes a
dive for the camphor and unbleach.
cd muslin, and when the man
comes home she is sitting back Of the
stove, thinking of St. Stephen and the
other martyrs, while a burnt dinner
and the camphor are smuggling heroic
ally for the mastery. He says that if
she had kept her temper she wouldn't
have got hurt. And he visits the bar
rel himself, and puts the hoop on very
carefully, and adjusts it so nicely to
the top Of every staye, that onl y Il
few smart knocks apparently are need
ed to bring it down all right then
he laughs to himself to think what a
fuss his wife kicked up over u simple
matter that only needed . little patti
cnce to adjust itself, and then he gets
the hammer, and fetches the hoop a
sharp rap on one side and the other
flies up and catches him on the bridge
Of the nose, filing his soul with wrath
and his eyes with tears, and the next
instant that barrel is flying across the
room accompanied by the hammer,
and another candidate for camphor
and rag is enrolled in the great army
that is increasingly marching toward
the grave [Danbury News

LEARN A TRADE.-One man with a
trade is worth a thousand without one.
The hosts young men in every large
city who apply for employment and
fail to get it, for the reason that they
can not truthfully affirm that they are
educated or especially fitted for any
particular business, constitute a potent
argument in favor of reform. Under
the apprentice system, we should have
fewer Ignorant mechanics and incom
petent business men. A trade isa
fortune in itself.

Compliment to Judge Nelson.

AT recent session of the United
States Circuit and District Court, held
in Burlington, complimentary resolu-
tons of respect, confidence, esteem
DC, &c, were adopted by the mem
bers of the Bar, there assembled, in
relation to the retirement of Judge
Samuel Nelson, from said Court over
which he has presided since 1915.
Judge Smalley, made the following
appropriateremarks in regard to Judge
Nelson, at the adoption ofthe resolves
alluded to above:
Judge Nelson was man of fine
natural intellect, learned lawyer and
a great magistrate. He was thorough
ly learned in the common law and its
rules of pleadings and evidence, much
Of which unfortunately have been
brushed away by the modern notions
of reform. While he was a learned
magistrate his great forte was q strong
and discriminating love of!justice and
vigorous common sense, which no
art or eloquence could dazzle or be-
wilder, no sophistry delude, no sub.
tlety entangle or embarrass and no
importantly influence. While he was
always fearless in expressing his own
opinions, and firm iii adhearing to
them unless his judgement was con-
vinced, he was tolerant of the opinions
Of others. He had no pride of opinion
which would induce him to adhere to
an opinion merely because he had ad-
vanced it; but satisfy him of the in
trinity of his reasoning and no one
was more willing and ready to yield.
His impartiality and freedom from
external influence was acknowledged
by every one, even the most ardent
advocate whom he had decided against
never questioned it. He was respect
ed, venerated and loved by all the Bar
who practced in his Court, and es-
pecially by his associates on the Bench,
if he could not agree with them his
opinion always expressed respect for
that of those who dissented from him.
No unkind remark was ever heard
from his lips in reference to any of his
associates. lie was a man of broad
and liberal views and opinions on all
subjects, sound thinker and close
reasOner
His opinions delivered in the Su-
preme Court, to be found in Howard,
Black d Wallace's Reports and in the
Circuit Court to be found in the nine
volumes Of Blatchford's Reports are
models Of judicial elegance, terseness,
clearness and learning.
| think upon the bench he will rank
with Chief Justice Marshall for judicial
wisdom and ability. With Marshall
we may say of him as of the ancient
Nestor: she was the wisest, frmest
and most judicious of them ALL"
The resolutions submitted by the
Bar are eminently proper and will be
put upon the records of the Court and
copy thereof transmitted to Justice
Nelson.

CONVENIENCE OF A DISH KETTLE
You want nothing but a dish kettle"
said an old housewife in the back
woods, to her daughter, who had just
got married. "Why, when your
father and | commenced, had moth
ing but a dish kettle. | used to boil
my coffee in it, and pour it into a
pitcher F; then boiled my potatoes in
it, and set them on a warm plate,
while | stewed up the meat in it /;
used to milk in it-and always after a
meal, I fed the pigs out of the dish
kettle. Sal, if you are only a mind to,
you can use it for anything.

sat alone with my conscience,
In place where time had ceased,
And we talked of my former living
In the land where the years increased.
And felt that should have to answer
The questions it put to me,
And to face the answer and question
Throughout an eternity.
The ghosts of forgotten actions
Came floating before my sight,
And things that thought were dead things
We're alive with terrible might,
And the vision of all my past life
Was an awful thing to face
Alone with my conscience sitting
In that solemnly silent place.
And thought of far-away warning,
OF sorrow that was to be mine,
In a land that then was the future,
But now is the present time.
And I thought of my former thinking
Of the Judgment day to be,
But sitting alone with my conscience
Seemed judgment enough for me.
And 1 wondered if there was future
To this land beyond the grave
But no one gave me an answer,
And no one came to save.
Then L felt that the future was present,
And the present would never go by,
For it was but the thought of my past life
Grown into eternity.
Then 1 woke from my timely dreaming.
And the vision passed away,
And I knew the far-way warning
Was warning of yesterday
And l pray that may not forget it,
In this land before the grave,
That 1 may not cry in the future,
And no one come to save.
And so l have learnt lesson,
Which l ought to have known before.
And which, though l learnt it dreaming,
l hope tc forget no more.
SO l sit alone with my conscience
In the place where the years increase,
And try to remember the future
In the land where time will cease:
And know of the future Judgment,
How dreadful seer it be,
That 10 sit alone ecM my conscience
wa be judgment enough for NE

JunGE SHERMAN. Several of Judge Sher-
mans letters to. the New York Exchange
have been produced before the Committee Of
Ways aud Means. TheY convict him not on
Iy of outright lying, bul are full of inlimations
of the most offensive soH of corruplion.--
Judge Sherman swore on "Wednesday last he
had not been in Washington for three years !:
In Il letter of Feb. 10th, 1879, he says he had
been in Washington that winter. He swore
that he had never attempted TO influence the
legislative conduct of any person whatever :.
In his letter he says he has every reason 10 be
confident of success in putting nm end to the
tax. Another Of his letters presses for the
payment al his claim ;another, written only a
fortnight bci0re the disclosure, la view of the
probable refusal of the Stock Exchange to
pay him, conveys threatening intimallon
that he Is about to visit Washington. and that
his action there upon the interests OF tho brok-
ers will depend upon their decision. AS far
ther argument IN favor ofthe payment of his
little bill, he tells his c0rresI ondant, young
Lcgrand Lockwood, that the estate he has in
horited from his father, who was siockhold-
er in the Credit Mobilier, may perhaps, be in,
yolvrd In suits To be brought lY the Govern.
