The Pension List.

The printing of the pension list has at last
been completed. AS already announced in
our columns, it fills five large volumes, and,
as the edition ordered by Congress is only
nineteen hundred, the demand for it is nat
urally very great. Itwas Mr.. Beck's inten-
ton, when he secured the passage Of the reso-
luton ordering the printing of this list, to fol-
low it up in the next Congress with reso-
luton providing for the publication of the
list IN a certain number of newspapers in
each town and county, and the posting of the
names at post-o1ices and other public build
ings, but we fancy that the immense cost OF
such publication and posting, amounting
as it would, to millions Of dollars, will deter
Congress from giving its sanction to any
such absurd proposition, even if it were not
calculated to subject our pensioners to per-
sonal shame and public suspicion. Even in
It's present form, we observe, the list is being
put TO ignoble uses by some of the news
papers Here, for instance, is an extract
from az article in the Philadelphia Times in
regard to the list:
Some Of the causes given for granting pension

worry Of making application, was awarded the

the opinion that if this dyspeptic person had
earned his appointment of major general of
volunteers by meritorious service in the
field instead of owing it to political favor,
he would thank, instead of denouncing, THE
TRIBUNE for emblazoning on its pages the
glorious achievements of the Union arms.
The war is over. as he says, but by virtue of
the devotion of the brave hearts and strong
arms of the soldiers who upheld the
Union, and not by reason of any service
rendered by the paper generals who were
inflicted upon the country at the outbreak
Of the rebellion, and who straightway sought
out soft places in the service or fat foreign
appointments Yes, the war is over, and
the men who stood by the flag until the last
armed foe laid down his arms are the most
generous in their sRpport Of the rights of
their late antagonists. The war is over.
Peace reigns throughout the land of the free
and the home Of the brave, but the memory
Of the times that tried mems souls is above
and beyond all other recollections of life
time. The four years of their military
service, filed with deeds of daring that as
tonish even themselves when they look
back upon them, was to them the grandest
period of their lives. To preserve the mem
ory of these deeds and transmit their exam
pie to future generations is the Office OF THF
NATIONAL TRIBUNE. Years of time and acres
of paper viii be exhausted in printing The
glorious record. but when finally our pens
are laid aside, because there is no more tt
write, we shall do so with the proud con
sciousness of having contributed more au
thentic history to the literature of the wa
than is to be found in all the books tha
have been written about it.
The National tribune., 1883-10-04

WHRRE there's. win there's always a
way, and the way is clearly indicated in 8
letter which We have received from David
Il. Smith, company D, Twentieth Pennsyl-
yania volunteer cavalry, Elliottsburg, Pa,
who writes Us that as the veterans Of that
place had picnic on the 22d nit, it occurred
TO him chat IT wenld be good opportunity
to interest the Boys in the question of start
: ing Grand Army Post and, putting his
idea into execution, secured the signatures
Of tWenty-six veterans to an application fol
Post charter. Eow, how many wiz follow
Cola1ade Smiths example?
The National tribune., 1883-10-04

The series of letters concerning the in
dustrial centers of England, which are now
appearing in THE TRIBUNE, are by far the
most thoughtful, accurate, and eomprehen-
sive of any that has yet appeared in the
American press, and our correspondent, Miss
Florence Kelley, who does not need the great
reputation of her father, the Hon. W. D.
Kelley, to give weight to what she says,
has most thoroughly demonstrated her
ability to grapple with any subject, no
matter how close the scrutiny and minute
the investigation which it may require.
These letters, we are glad to see, are being
copied in our exchanges, and they cannot
fail to be of positive value in acquainting
the public with the actual condition of the
English working classes.

The National tribune., 1883-10-04

As an illustration of the practical good
to say nothing of entertainment and instruc-
tion-which THE TRIBUNE haa accomplished
during the last year. we print the following
letter, which, it is needless for us to say,
comes to US entirely unsolicited:
To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
Ireceived your postal tonight, and hasten to
send a dollar for the renewal of your valuable
paper. would be loath TO give IL up, when
think back to one year ago and see what it has
done for our little town in twelve months. hap
pened to run across copy while on visit TO an
adjoining county and subscribed for it before
turning home. AS soon as received my first copy
I went to work among our old soldiers, who up to
| that time seemed more like strangers TO one an
other than like comrades. sent you some eight
cen or twenty names, and now mark the result ::
| We have a strong and thriving Post and the old
| comrades are once acquainted with each
other. can say to you that W. r. GODDARD Post is
| wholly the fruits of THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE.
think you need not fear any falling of in the list
of subscribers of this place, but rather increase.
Hoping it may be the case wherever your paper
circulates, I remain, NJ. g. MONTGOMERY.
| LENA, ILL.
The National tribune., 1883-10-04

CoMRADE R. M. Worthington, of Point
Pleasant, N. j., who recently inclosed to us,
with his own subscription, an extra dollar
to pay the subscription ofsome one too poor
to take THE TRIBUNE, viii be glad to know
that the widow of soldier at Sacramento,
Cal, who, although profoundly interested in
The TRTBUNE's mission has been unable,
out of her scant means, to spare the subscrip-
tion money, is the happy recipient of his gift.
IF other generous comrades would do like
wise many disabled veterans life would be
cheered and frightened.

AMONG the contributed articles printed III
our last issue was one from Comrade ID. a.
Trip, late company f, Tenth Maine volun-
teers, concerning Banks operations in the val
ley. Comrade Trip was right in his state
ment as to the Operations of Kenly's COM
mand at Front Royal, full account of which
may be found in The NATIONAL TRIBUNE
of September 19, 1882 but wrong in his esti-
mate of the strength of Banks command,
which by his returns for May, 1862 was
Present for duty, 8755. That he retreated
as rapidly as possible down the valley, pur-
sued by Jackson's command, and that the
latter took position at Halltown within two
miles of Harper's Ferry are matters of his
tory. Comrade Tripp closed his letter by
expressing his opinion that the forces OF
Banks, Mcdowell, and Fremont did not
aggregate one-half of the 10000 men that
you say were neutralized by Jackson" The
consolidated monthly returns of these COM
mands on file in the Adjutant- Generals
Office give the following reports of the Off
GERS and men present for duty"
General Fremont q Ill
General Banizs............... $50
General Mcdowell. 494
Total...... 80 Sl
This is exclusive of the troops in Me
Dowell's command in charge of the defense'
of Washington. Dedueting 10000 men t.
watch Jackson at the mouth of the Shenan
doah, 10000 men could have been used il
operating against Richmond, and in tina
sense were "neutralized."

In ORDER to insure prompt attention, i'm

lication in THE TRIBUNE should never,
where it can be avoided, be inclosed with
letters pertaining to matters of business
solely. Our contributors will find this a
mutually satisfactory rule to follow, for our
correspondence has now reached such enor-
nous proportions that unless this rule is
observed many interesting articles may
escape the editors attention altogether or
remain unacted upon on the files of our

From our personal acquaintance with the
manufacturers of " Browns Iron Btters," and
those who have attested their remedial powers,
being all that it is represented to be. Since its
introduction, three years ago, thousands of bot.
ties have been sold-720,000 bottles last year
alone-and as the demand is still increasing
the inference is plain that the public have
found out aud fully appreciate its restorative
qualities. These Bitters are entirely free from
alcohol, and the iron which they contain is
held in 9 solution which does not diseolor the
of the bowels They web deserve their great
popularity.
