KIRKwoOp ON pENsIoNs.

While the report Of the Secretary Of
the Interior sets forth very fully the
number of pension claims paid and filed
and the estimates Of the future, there is a
noticeable absence of any recommen-
dation on the'subject; and such changes
as be has made from the methods of his
predecessors do not strike the observer
as in the direction of Improvement.
In the light ofthe demands now made
and the statements furnished the public
by the commissioner of pensions, his
failure to make more specific allusion to
the abuses, real or alleged, in the PEN
sion bureau, will be regarded as curious,
to say the least oft. The following isa
summary of his statementupon the sub
ject of pensions: ,5
"On the seth of June, 1881, there were
26S $50 pensioners on the rolls, classified as
follows: Army invalidS, 53,025; army
widows, children and dependent relatives,
T66S3; navy inyalids, 2,lST; navy widows,
children and dependent relatives, zoos;
soldiers and sailors of the war of 1912, s.
SOS; widows of soldiers and sailors of that
war, ", 029.
"During the year, 2S.740 names we're
placed on the pension roll, and 1912 were
dropped, making the increase for the year
in the number OF pensioners, lS,02s.
'The whole amount paid on account of
pensions was $40. 723, 14T.52, of which S23-
IDS, 1861 was paid to pensioners whose
names were placed on the roll during the
year ending June 80, 1881, whose pensions
generally extend back over a period of
many years.
The average annual pension of the PEN
SiOners on the roll on the 3Oth of June,
1881. was $l07.O1. 1t would require S2S, 769-
96I. G6 to pay for one year the pensioners
on the roll at the end of the last fiscal year
at the rate they were then receiving.
'Since the year 1861, 49, 439 claims of
invalid officers and soldiers for pension
have been filed in the pension Office, of
which 1870. 80 have been allowed, and 28g.-
30 claims of widows children and depend
cnt relatives have been filed, of which 49,
4l4 have been allowed.
I'm addition to the above since the 18th
of February, 1871, 3i,54S claims of officers
and soldiers of the war of 1872 have been
filed, of which 25,5S5 have been allowed;
and a. 305 claims of widows of officers and
soldiers of that war have been filed, OF which
81, 500 have been allowed"

A GOOD many people are yet to be
found who sneer at the idea that vacci-
nation is a preventive of smallpox.
This disease is now quite prevalent in
various parts of the country. 1t is,
therefore, noteworthy that the Ameri-
can Public Health Association, which
has Just held a convention at Savannah,
decided to memorabilia Congress and
State Legislatures for the passage of 3
compulsory law in relation to yaccina-
ton and re-yaecination, as an essential
part of the preventive theory. Although
there Is a difference of opinion among
physicians as to the treatment of small
pox, the wisdom of vaccination seems
to be generally conceded by them.

MIR. CARLISLE, of Kentucky, proposes
to make Ex-Secretary WINDOWS fund
ing work the subject of review by Con-
gress. He believes the Secretary to have
not only exceeded his authority, but to
have sacrificed popular interests to spe-
cial demands. In other words, he holds
Mr.. WINDOW accountable for paying
out the millions that the three and half
per cent. reached when a three per cent.
bond would have been just as successful
on the market, with the additional adj
vantage of saving the payment of the
extra half cent. The difference to the
Treasury amounts to perhaps a million
and q halfDc annum.

Secretary FOLGER As puzzled to know
why there is not a more ready response
to his call for bonds. Ii is rather aqueer
feature of the financial condition of the
country that while money in New York
commands per cent. and 1872 commits
sions, equal to Is per cent. per annum,
there were few bonds presented for re-
demption in response to the Secretary of
the 1reasury's recent call for ~, 100000
at par and accrued interest. Add to
this that but about so, 900 of the S4,OOO,-
600 invited for redemption during the
past two weeks have been sent in; that
8, 900 on which interest ceased six
months ago are still out, besides large
amount on which interest ceased Jon the
list Of October last, andwe become aware
ola remarkable indifference on some
bOdy's part to the idleness Of his capital

EDWARD ATKINSON, in recent arti
Gle on the railway service, estimates that
III, 800 miles of new railway will be re-
quired in the next fifteen years, which
he extends to twenty, to allow for the
depression incident TO the usual seven
years panic. This calls for a yearly
construction of $500 miles, and an an
nual outlay at present Gust of eonstruc-
ton of S275, 100000. This work calls for
the service of 436, 500 men at 500 per
day. The conclusion which Mr.. At
KINSON draws is, that the less meddle-
some and obstructive methods which
the Government applies to the railroad
interests the better it will be for the
Government and the people.

A NEW party has arisen in some of
the Swiss cantons which calls itself the
Winterthurerhandwerksburschenvorwa
rtsgrupp. 1t is not every language, says
the London Echo, which is so noble and
exhaustive as the German. Here, in a
single word, these people tell us that
they are immigrants of German race,
that they are artizanI and apprentices,
that they hold advanced political opin-
ions, and that they have constituted
themselves into party.

THE principal trouble between Prince
BISMARCK and his Liberal opponents
appears to be that BISMARCK is earnest
~ striving for Capitalization Of all pub
lie powers in the imperial government,
while the opposition zealously espouses
the cause of State sovereignty, and the
exercise of all the prerogatives of gov
eminent by the separate States of the
Empire. 1t is an application to Ger
many of the American problem ofState
rights and nationality.

THE recent recount in legislative
district of New Jersey has made the
New Jersey house IA tie. There is some
reason, however, for the belief that one
member, heretofore reckoned Repub-
lican, will act with the Democrats. If
SO, the latter will make it lively for the
party that has controlled legislation in
New Jersey of late bp reason of an I'M
just gerrymander. The house now
stands: Straight Republicans, 20; I'M

We will see in q few days, perhaps,
how much bottom there is left in the
Star-ROute cases, by the result of the ac-
ton Of the Grand Jury. 1t was objected
in the first instance that Grand Jury
had not acted and that it was a high
handed proceeding to begin the prose-
cutiOn on information" But ifa case
begun on information would not hold,
viii one begun on indictment be any
more satisfactory to the Star Reuters?
The fact is that beginning criminal ac-
ton by information instead of indict-
ment is extraordinary neither in law nor
in practice. 1t is implicitly recognized
by the constitution, is expressly author
lied by Congress and has been repeated
ly upheld by the courts. 1t is not even
looked upon with disfavOr by judges in
those cases wherein it is proper and law
full. In the United States courts alone
criminal prosecutions by information
have been begun in not fewer than five
hundred cases within the past four

COnk. a Great Man.

Time was, in the Senate when Mr.. La

seemed the only possible outcome Of their
