The Boun ties for the Colored
Volunteer Troeps.

The late act giving bouutics to slaves
enlisted int the army during the war
will take for its execution from two to
two and a-half millions Of dollars. Ths
first act on the subject, passed during the
war, gave the bounty to loyal masters,
as some compensation for loss of their
slaves; but as the loyalty clause was
svaded by disloyal owners, Secretary
Stanton got the law superseded in 1866,
and !. las now been repeweaa ID in favor Of
the Slaves instead of the masters. The
Investigation ana pay ment of the claims
are to be conducted by the Adjutant
General at Washington, under the same
regulations as have been established by
him for the payment of unsettled claims
for bounties and pensions of colored SOL
diers who we're free when enlisted. The
features of these regulations are the pay
ment in cash to the soldier himself, il
living. or to his legal heirs if dead, and
to no attorney or assignee whatever. The
fees Of the attorney prosecuting the claims
arc fixed by law, and the legal amount is
retained from each claim allowed and
paid to the attorney by the Adjutant Gen.
eral. Army disbnrsing officers are sta
toned at convenient central points in the
South, before whom those whose claims
hare been allowed are required to appear
personally and establish their indentity
by known witnesses, and by answering
questions based on information derived
from the muster rolls and stated returns
Of the regiments. The Southern Congress-
men are also pressed into service by fur
nishing them with list Of claimants,
whom they are requested to search out and
send to the paying officers.
When bounties we're FIRST granted to the
colored troops they we're paid as in the
case ofwhite troops. the result being that
the soldiers gotta small advance from the
attorney to whom be entrusted his case,
or smsll order for groceries and supplies,
and signed away bis whole claim unknow>
ingly. In 1867 Congress recognized the
peculiar difficulties arising out Of the gen,
sral ignorance and improvidence Of the
freedmen, and directed that the Freed.
mems Bureau should receive the money
and pay the claimants and attorneys.
But this only partially remsdied the ex.
listing abuses. Advances made or prsten-
ded to be made to claimants were recog-
nised, identification Of claimants was re-
ducsa to formality, receiptsd vouchers
were taken from claimants in advance and

saves the face. The next instant throw
the person on the floor. This is an add.
tional safety to the face and breath, and
any remnant Of fame can DO put out more
leisurely.
The next instant imwerse the burnt
part in cold water, and all pain will cease
with the rapidity of lightning. Next get
some common -four, remove from tho
water, and cover the burnt parts with an
inch in thickness Of -four; if possible put
the patient to bed, and do al that is pos,

Let the -four remain until it falls off IL

application is needed. The dry -four

EDITORS HERALD AND TRIBUNE:
Seeing that a portion of your valuable
paper is devoted to education. l thought
it would not be amiss to let our friends in
East Tennessee know through your eel,
umns what we are doing in Kentucky in
the way of education. We have very
liberal school system in our State, guar
anteeing to every child in the State the
advantages of common school education.
A very lively interest has been manifest
ed in the schools just closing out. / am
indeed proud that our peopls'are becom>
ing aroused on the subject, and hope the
interest will become stronger and strong
or every year. l have long since learned
that country devoid Of any educational
system is devoid of everything that has a
tel dsncy to make good and happy pe,-
pie.
Our school at Free Will, Of six months
duration closed last Friday. We had an
exhibition that day, which I do not think
can be excelled in any common school.
1t was the first exhibition we have ever
had at Free Will, but Notwithstanding this
our little girls and boys, as we'll as the
larger ones, acquitted themselves very
well, showing that they had been proper
ly trained by good teacher. Our teach
er, W. R. Hacker, formerly of Greene
county, East Tennessee, has taught us a
good school" He has shown himself we'll
worthy of the position which he has SO
faithfully filed. But fearing l may wea
