Horses Lost in the Service.

The law granting pay for horses lost In the
United States service from incidental to the
war expired by limitation December 81, 1875
Quite number Of bills have been introduced since
to extend the time within which such claims may
be filed and audited and while there has been no
particular opposition to 80 just measure, yet the
bills have failed through lack of interest on the
part of Senator'S and Representatives having them
ia charge and other reasons Several bills of this
nature were introduced in the last Congress- which
expired March 4, 1881, and one of them passed the
Senate without objection, but late in the session
as to render its passage by the House Of Represen
tatives impracticable There is every reason how
ever to hope that the bill will become law during
the present Congress, and all having claims Of this
character shonld bring them before the proper de-
partment through experienced claims attorney
without delay, they will be taken up in the order
Of their fling (See advertisement on last page)

Attention, Soldiers

There is o large classs of exvolunteer officers and
soldiers principally of the cavalry Of the service
who, after the fall OF Richmond, were, with their
commands, ordered to the plains to fight Indians.
These men were mostly veteran volunteers, and had
enlistedfor during the war or for one two three
years, unless sooner discharged by reason of the
close ofthe war. In all cases the understanding
both the part Of the Government and the soldier
was that when the rebellion should have been put
down they would be discharged but when the
Government violated its contract with these brave
men and ordered them to the plains, large numbers
Of them having served the Government faithfully
according to the terms of their enlistment left for
their homes, and were marked on the rolls as de-
serters, thus forfeting ali pay bounty, and other
allowances ercept pension. All survivors of this
class, and the heirs of such as have died. are re-
qucsted to send to this paper their full names with
rank, company, regiment and post-olice address,
BY so doing they may reap an unexpected benefit.
Any of our subscribers who know of any persons
embraced in the classes referred to viii confer a
