attention to the fact that before he took
charge OF the Pension bureau it was used
as political machine. Those who were
employed in it belonged, as rule, to the
Republican party. Consequently, appli-
cants tor pensions, who did not belong to
that party, had great difficulty in getting
their applications attended to.
There was another great abuse: The
employees of the Pension bureau were po-
litical workers, and many Of them gave
more attention to politics than to their
duties. They were away from their desks
weeks at a time. The result was that
the business Of the bureau was me-
elected, and the cost Of doing what vas
done was very heavy. 70
All this has been changed. The en-
ployes of the bureau are now appointed
from all parts Of the country, and
from different political parties. They
understand that they will not be
retained If they do not do their
work faithfully and satisfactorily.
Competency and faithfulness are the
qualifications required. The result is that
more business is done at less cost than
ever before. The claimants for pensions
have reason to be thankful that the PEN
sion bureau has passed out Of partisan
hands Il

A Noble ORGANIZATION

The Tennessee Confederate Memorial
and Historical Association is the name
Of an organization now being formed at
Nashville, and it has applied for a char
ter. 1t already embraces many of the
most influential men of that city and
vicinity. The objects of the association
are to erect a monument on the capitol
grounds at Nashville, to care for the
graves of Confederate soldiers, and to
urge on the people Of every part of the
South to do the same; to bring all ex-
Confederates into closer fraternal rela-
tions and to care for sick and unfortunate
eX-Confederates.
A resolution was adopted by the Gene
raj Assembly OF Tennessee some time since
authorizing the erection OF monument
on the capitol grounds to the memory OF
the Federal and Confederate soldiers. pro-
vlded it be Of such a character as to har-
monize with the capitol building and
grounds, and provided further that it
shall be regarded as a monument of the
reconciliation of the contending armies.
1t is the intention Of the incorporators to
extend the association to the different
counties in Tennessee, and to influence
the formation of similar organizations in
all the Southern States.
The objects Of this association cannot
be too highly praised, especially those
which relate to the protection of
and care for the graves of the Con-
federate dead, and the care of the
sick and unfortunate. 1t is very well to
erect monuments, and bedeck them with
flowers and evergreens, but it all appears
to be but mockery as long as the last rest
ing places of our dead heroes are forgot
ten, and those who survive and are desti-
tute are neglected.
The graves of the Union dead are mag
nidcently cared for by the government,
and it may be that public opinion, North
as well as South, may yet induce the gov
ernment to assume the task of protect
ing the graves of the Confederate
dead also. This will never be done, how
ever, as long as the Southern people ap-
pear to be careless or Indifferent on the
subject. They are now amply able to
care for the graves of their dead, and they
should not ask the government to do so !;
but there is reason to believe that the
more noble and generous of the surviving
Union veterans will move in the matter in
the early future. The living and the dead
on both sides belong to our common
country, and their heroism will be re-
membered with national pride as long as
generous patriotism shall survive, or
noble deeds shall be appreciated.

DR.. Bartlett followed with the exhibition of
specimens of the lizard family, obtained from
Iucatan, in connection with which he pre-
sented letters and afidavits he had received
in reference TO species of snake which is
said to iniest the Illinois prairies The letters
were from Mrs Trial and Mrs Buell.. Of
ROckporE. H., and in them they claimed to
have recently seen snake about their flower
beds. known as the glass or jointed snake,
which upon their appearance stood erect upon
its tail. Mrs. Trial approached the reptile
she says, and struck it with stick, where .
upon 1t fell into four distinct pieces. The part
containing the head Wrggled around for
awhile, and in an instant almost she observe
that it gathered up The other pieces, as an en-
gine making up train of cars, and speedily
moved of as If nothing had happened, the
pieces all restored. Mrs. Buell. added her
testimony and affidavit to the truthfulness of
the statement, and Rev. L. j. Keller, a Cam
bellite preacher OF the Same place, backed
both of their statements by saying that he had
often seen the same strange phenomena in
that section. He related one instance where
the snake had been broken into four pieces
and where the head had wriggled of dis
tance of some ten feet and a moment later
returned, when all OF the parts were restored
TO their former condition and relations, as IL
by magic. During the absence Of the head he
said he examined the other parts found them
hard and free from blood or other matter, and
in conclusion he expressed considerable sur
prise that the phenomena related was not
generally known and accepted as true
DR.. Andrews said he had taken some pains
to inquire into the story. and had found the
atlantis earnest, reputable people, and he had
no reason to doubt their entire sincerity. nor
yet that they actually believed that they had
seen what they ma rated. He could not, how
ever. dispel few doubts he had on the entire
subject. In the first place, he regarded it as
improbable for snake TO stand erect upon its
