jackson and Peggy .'N.lI.

A Washington correspondent has re-
vived the famous Peggy O'Neil scan
dial of Gen. Jackson's administration.
The story, in brief, is as follows;
Peggy O'Neil, beautiful girl Of poor
parents who lived in Washington,
married an officer in the navy named
Timberlake. Years aftprward, she
married Gen. John Ii Eaton, who
was Jackson's first Secretary of War
with Eatpn, there lind been some scan
dals connected with her name, and the
sons cabinet refused to associate with
her. This, OF cnnrse, made her furious
and greatly annoyed her husband. who
was Jacksons intimate and personal
friend. Old Hickory, on hearing of
The disturbance among the ladies,
warmly espoused Mrs. Eaton's cause,
and demanded proofs OF their calum-
MES OF those who aspersed her. They
undertook to make good their charges
but jackson overthrow the testimony
thew bad adluced, and proved the nc.
cused lady's innocerce, al least to bis
own satisfaction. But, her feminine
foes could not be convinced nor APP
peased. and kept up the warfare until
the cabinet vas dissolved in 1881.
Gen. Eaton was not "a member of the
new cabinet, and the controversy WAS
soon forgotten in the eycliemt hts
which rapidly followed one another
in Jackson's stormy administration

PEN lion FRAU =

The San Francisco Call says: 1t is
believed that a good deal of money
could be saved to the Government if
all the fraudulent names could be
eliminated from the pension no.
Investigation has been commenced IN
Z .lhe Pension Bureau wi b unexpected
results. 1t is found that two hundred
undeserving persons have been getting
pensions in the District of Columbia
alone. These illegal pension drawers
are the representatives of dead people,
and often are women, once widows,
who have married again This abuse
probably exists all over the country,
and should by all means be reformed.
There are enough worthy people to be
provided for without taxing the
resources of the Government for the
