EDITORIAL work always has its dis
eouragements, but he who labors to. get
out Second Advent paper under the
impression that the world viii be des-
troyed before the newspapers can reach
his readers, engages in a peculiar if not
disheartening task. Mr.. Bishop, who
is Terry Islander, and Millernarian,
and prints a warning journal called the
Ratchman's Cry, acknowledges that he
sends out the current number with some
misgivings that t'it may never reach
those for whom its words of comfort
and encouragement are intended, But
he don't expect ever to issue another
Cry, fer in about a week "all the good

Mr.. Bishops Cry, that he was in error !;
but If he be true journalist he will not
suspend on that account.

THE RUTLAND HERALD.
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1873.
work for Congress.


The providential care which watches
over Congressman seems TO have sent at
inst the proper time a solution Of the
Virginius matter Two weeks ago, or
even one week, there seemed compare
tive little chance for a peaceful and hon
orablc way out of our trouble, and while
every one tried to foresee the future for
himself, or relied upon the opinions OF
newspapers to mould his own, there was
much speculation and forethought as to
the course Congress would take. Theo-
retically we are free now from danger
of a war, and Congress is at liberty to
devote itself to the numerous other ques-
lions looking to the general welfare OF
the country. There may indeed be
doubt, and perhaps difficulty, in carry
ing ont some of the measures to which
the CASTELAR, government has pledged it
self, as amends for the acts of the Tor
nado and of Burriel but these
are like to be kept out of Congress.
The first shadow OF an attempt to intro
duce the Spanish question on the, floor
OF the Senate was the attempt of Sena-
tor Sumner TO read q dispatch from
some members of the Spanish Cortes,
THIS message was supposed to contain
the congratulations of the writers on the
position finally assumed by the United
States and the Republicans of Spain.
The question like to cause the strong
est contest in the House during the pres
ent session is the initiation of the cur
rency, or its contraction and return tc
specis payments, 1t is generally under
stood that the Senate is, and will be, OPP
posed to initiation, whatever may be the
temper of the House. Without ventur
ing to predict what that body will do, il
is certain that the better outlook in bus
mess lately, will go far to discourage
any schemes of the infiationists.
Among the bills introduced in thu
Senate on Monday we were prepared t
have seen more than one looking toward
repeal of the salary grab, but none APP
peared. The temper of the people vii
not, however, allow the session to pas
without some action on that subject.

The ninth census has been completed,
and the report thereof published and dis
tributed and the working force Of the
bureau disbanded. The Secretary of the
Interior Fencws hIs recommendation for
census to be taken in 1875, to which sub
iect the attention OF Congress is invited.
The original suggestion in that behalf has
met with the general approval or
the country. and even if it be not
deemed advisable at present 10
provide for a regular quinquieunial census
taken in 1873, report Of which could be
complied and published before the one
hUndre IN anniversary Of our independence,
It would be especially interesting and
valuable as showing progress of the couH-
try during the first century of our nation
al existence. It is believed however that
regular census every five years, would be
substantial benefit TO the country, inasmucb
as our growth hitherto has been so rapid
that the results of deeennial census are
necessarily unreliable as a basis of esti-
mates for latter year of the dccennial
period.

PENSIONS.

There was paid during the last nscai
year for pensions, including the expenses
of disbursements, SIS. lS5,2S9 p. being an
amount less by 1884 ESQ IS than was eS-
pended for the same purpose during the
preceding year. Although this statement
Of expenditures would indicate material
reduction in amount. as compared with
the preceding year, it Is believed that
changes in the pension laws at the last
session of Congress viii reach and absorb
that amount during the current year. At
the close of the last fiscal year, there were
on the pension lists 99,S04 invalid mil
itary pensioners, and lI2,G56 widows,
orphans, and dependent widows of deceased
soldiers, making a total in that class Of
oil 500: IS, 266 survivors of the war 1912,
and 5.053 widows of soldiers that were
saecored under an act of Congress of Feb
ruary 18th, 1871, making a total in that
class of % $40 l ,430 invalid navy pension
ers and 1870 widows and orphans, and
dependent relatives of deceased officers,
sailors and marines of the navy, making the
total of navy pensioners 3 200, and the grand
of all classes OF DISH, showing net m
crease during the last fiscal year OF 6,lo2.
During the last year the names of Ii, 4U5
pensioners were added and lD,224 names
were dropped there rom. for various
causes. The system adopted for the deteo-
tion OF frauds against the Government, in
the matter OfpensiOns has been product
i've OF satisfactory resnlts, but legislation
rs needed TO provide, if possible, against
peIpetrating such frauds in future.

not considered advisable, think If Will
not be- seriously Questioned that these
.pOTtionlS.of said act providing Tor what Is

increase financial enbarrassments. In
the country careful and prudent men
very often become involved in
debt in the transaction of their
business, and though they may possess
ample property, if 1t could be made avail
able for. that purpose, to meet all their
liabilities, yet on account of an eXtraord-
mary scarcity. of money they may not be
able TO meet all obligations as they become
due, in: consequence of which they are
liable to be Frustrated in their business by
proceedings in bankruptcy at the instance
of Il nrelenting creditors. People are now
so alarmed at monetary matters, that the
mere filing of petition in bankruptcy by
an unfriendly creditor will necessarily EN-
barrass and oftentimes accomplish financial
ruin of responsible business men. Those
who otherwise might make lawful and Just
arrangements to relieve themselves from
difficulties produced by the present String
ency in money are prevented by q cons
tant' exposure to- attack and disap-
pointment by proceedings against
them in Bankruptcy; and, beside, law is
made use of in many cases by obdurate
creditors to brighten or force debtors into
compliance with their wishes, and into acts
of injustice to other creditors and them
selves. recommend that SO much of the
act as provides for involuntary bankruptcy
on account Of suspension of payment, be
