knows good deal more
The House of Representatives did something
Yesterday toward performing a long delayed
act of Justice. The bill was passed granting
a pension to the widow of Lieutenant Benner,
the brave officer who volunteered for perlous
service against the yellow fever two Summers
ago, and lost his life. 1t is to be hoped that
the bill will not fall short of final passage at
this session, as 1T did at the last.
OF the many eulogies pronounced yesterday
in both houses of Congress upon the late
Senator Chandler, none seemed to convey so
vivid an idea of the striking characteristics
of the man as the speech delivered by Mr..
Blaine. It is difficult, with even the best
intentions, to avoid the commonplace in
such addresses-but this il a danger which
Mr.. Blaine never approached, and has seldom
been further from than here. A full report
of the speech will be found upon another
page.
century is long enough to wait for even
Congresses to confess their sins and do works
meet for repentance. General Herkimer, one
of the sturdiest of the Revolutionary patriots
of this State has been waiting all that time
for his monument which was voted to him in
1777, aud was voted to him again yesterday
in the House of Representative. 1t now re-
mains for this Congress to show that we, the
descendants, have better memories than our
forefathers, and when we take vote remem-
Der IL; and when we order a monument to be
erected, see that it is done.
