At the funeral Miss Wagner appear
ed, weeping, and placed a beautiful
boquet upon the casket. This beauti-
full and touching evidence of tender
ness. not to say affection, would seem,
under ordinary circumstances, to be
enough to melt the hearts of all be-

ton for the tenderness for the bereav-

sweet! But the relatives failed to
take this view of it. They could not
feel that they would rather decorate
him with flowers, dead, than make
him happy, living, so one of them
seized it and threw it at the young Ia

A Nelonville doggery-keeper, was
adjudged insane last week, and sent to
the Athens Asylum. His insanity
was caused by whisky. So it seems
that the Internal business turns on its
friends, sometimes, and visits upon
them the evils so freely sown by them
in this world. All men will sympa-
thize with this unfortunate man in
his affiiction, but at the same time
hope that he may regain his sober sem

ceived that it was horrible, danger

thing for the country if every Devils
Agent in it would get such dose Of
his own vile stuff that his empty head
would become so muddled as to neces-

and better for the morals of the peo-
pie. There is no way of making an
Intelligent estimate of the amount of
mental suffering caused by a single
doggery-keeper. No other business
can possibly do so much towards fill

THE FIGHT WITH THE ALBEMARLE.

To THE EDITOR: In your issue Of Sept. %, editor
ally speaking of Capt. Boutelle, of Maine, you
say the gallant sailor who fought the rebel ram
Albemarle singlehanded, with wooden vessel,
and came destroying her" Now, please tell
Us where II happened i never heard of il before.
Yet 1t might have happened for all that but was
In North Carolina at the time she came down and,
as remember, Cushing was the only man that
fought her singlehanded with a wooden vessel.
His was a steam lanch. and he destroyed her. Do
you refer 10 the only time that she retreated when
and after the Sassacus rammed her? At that time
the Sassacus only of a fleet of double-end-
ers and other gunboats that were fighting her, and
none of them singlehanded or alone. While Capt.
Boutelle may be all that Is claimed for him, don't
claim for him things that he has right to.-WILL
L. WEIGH. Boston, Mass.
The facts upon which we base our asser-
tion are these: Lieut.. Boutelle was the Ex-
ecutive Officer of the Sassacus, and was the
first to advocate the idea of ramming the
Albemarle. This most of the Regular Off
GERS of the navy hooted at, but Lieut.. Bou-
telle's Captain Francis A. Roe, now Rear
Admiral on the retired list, and as gallant a
man as ever trod deck believed the scheme
to be feasible, and when the double-enders
attacked the Albemarle at long range, he,
when convenient opportunity offered, di-
rected Boutelle to put the Sassacus on to the
rebel ram, which the latter did and struck
her fearful blow, but not hard enough to
sink her. For few minutes the two YES
sells lay alongside of each other and bat
tered each other with their heavy guns, while
the remainder of the fleet stood off and
watched the issue of the combat There is
nothing in the history of naval warfare any
more thrilling than the story of those few
terrible moments when the two vessels were
engaged. They finally drifted apart, both
badly injured, and the Albemarle's damages
were so severe that she withdrew out of the
fight and made the best of her way back to
a place of refuge.

SAMPLE COPIES.

A number of sample copies will be sent
out this week to those who are not subserib-
ers to the paper. We ask every man who
shall receive one to give it careful exami-
nation, and if convenient, to also ask such of
his acquaintance as may be subscribers to
the paper their opinion of it. We are sure
that if he examines it critically and COM
pares it with other papers he will find it to
be the best family paper published. 1t gives
more for the money, has higher class of
contributors, and is generally more accept
able, entertaining and valuable paper than
any other published. This is shown by its
rapid strides in public favor Though not
yet 10 years old, it has much the largest cir
eulation of any weekly family paper in the
country, and is growing at a rate that no
other one is. This is proof enough Of its SUI
perior excellence.

THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE.

III is no disparagement to the many other
worthy men whose names were mentioned
in connection with the vacant Brigadier-
Generalship to say that the President could
not have made another choice which would
meet with the widespread approval that has
greeted his selection Of Gen. Wilcox. The
reason is that there is hardly another man in
the army who has rendered so much and such
valuable service to the country and has re-
ceiVed so little reward. he entered the war
of the rebellion a Colonel, and was one of
the very best Colonies that ever took 1000
ardent young patriots and transformed them
into efficient soldiers. He led a brigade
with unsurpassed gallantry at Bull Run, was
severely wounded and endured a long i'm
prisonment with the dignity and fortitude
OF true soldier. Promoted TO The COM
mand of a division on his release, he led and
fought it with courage and skill second to
no mans through all the stubborn fighting
which it encountered for the next two years
and ahalf, untilit broke through the enemy's
last line of defenses at Petersburg on the
morning Of March 8, 1865, and was crowned
with the well-won honor Of possession OF
the stronghold against which the Army OF
the Potomac had striven for SO many weary,
bloody months. After all this service Gen,
Wilcox received but a COlonelcy in the
Regular Army, which he has held now for
20 years. There is no man in whose good
fortune THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE takes
greater pleasure than Gen. willcox's.

THEmagnifcentm majority which Capt @. A.
Boutelle Republican, received in the Fourth
District of Maine was compliment that he
deserved in many ways. As an able and
jealous Representative he deserved it, for few
districts in the Nation are so fortunate as to
be represented by a man of such ability and
experience. The voters of the Fourth Dis
trict would not be up to the ordinary level
of keen, bright men of Maine if they did not
appreciate the credit of being represented by
plueky, capable, shrewd man like COmrade
BOutelle, who has integrity and convictions,
and is always in trim to make a successful
fight for whatever he believes to be right.
There is no man in Congress who is surer of

the House than the ex-yolunteer sailor from

THE RECOMMENDATIONS

The following is the substance of the Ma
tional Pension Committees recommends
tions:
1. To continue pensions to all widows and
dependent relatives, without demanding
proof that the pensioners death was caused
by his services.
2. To extend the arrears limit to Jan. /,
1888.
3. To pension the dependent parent where
pensioner leaves neither widow nor orphans.
A. To pension survivors of rebel prisons
without requiring proof that their disability
resulted from their Imprisonment.
s. To pension all honorably discharged
soldiers and sailors who are now disabled
and dependent on their own labor for sup
port, or who are 81 years old.
6. To equalize bounties.
Comrades everywhere should at once see
that their Congressman and every candi-
date for Congress states explicitly his atti-
tude toward these recommendations. An
answer of "Yes" or "No" should be got
from every one.

interested in this, for they feel q deep inter-

THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE is necessity
for this country. 1t is very necessary that
there should be one great paper continually
devoted to the duty of teaching the highest
and purest lessons of loyalty and patriotism,
to this and the rising generations. This
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE does, and it
should be placed in the hands of every
youth into whose mind it is desirable to in
culcate lessons of love of country. A father
cannot give his son better present than a
years subscription to the paper.

The showing could be made vastly stronger
in favor of the soldier by adding the enor-
nous amount that has been paid the bond
holders in redeeming the bonds and reducing
the debt, but as it is is strong enough. 1t
was all right, we assert, to pay the bond
holders the last cent of their dues. 1t was
proper that they should be given gold dollars
where they lent paper ones worth but 35
cents, because the Government in its distress
agreed to it.
We insist now that the debt due the SOL
diers is of superior sacredness to that due
the bondholders, and that it should be paid
with at least equal punctiliousness. Every
man who bore q musket in defense of the
country made great pecuniary and other
sacrifices to do so. The least that the Nation
can now do in honor is to pay him what it
promised it would when he enlisted in its
service, and sacrificed home, youth and
health to save it from destruction.

The soldier is as far from being played
out in Nebraska as in any State in the
Union. The entire Republican State, Con-
gressional and Judicial tickets of that State
are made up Of soldiers, headed by the gal
liant old veteran Maj Gen. John M. Thayer
for Governor. The candidates for Secretary
OF State and Commissioner of Public Lands
and Buildings are one-legged veterans, and
the candidates for Attorney General and
State Superintendent of Public instruction
are disabled. This is splendid showing.
