Pensions for Dependent Veterans.


The Government is abundantly able to give
every helpless veteran the small pittance of SIP
q month; and there is certainly no other way
in which it could spend money more creditably
TO itself il any respect 1t is true that our out
lay ON account of pensions is already very
large, but it is equally true that our generosity
in that regard is made possible by the benefits
derived from the labors aud sacrifices of those
who fought the country's battles in its time of
extreme peril. There can be no such thing as
complete payment in dollars and cents for the
services of the men who saved the Union. The
Indebtedness of the Nation TO that class of its
citizens is incalculabe and constantly iBcreRs-
ing. and the most that il can hope to do is to
protect them against want and suffering. That
much it can do, however, and that much should
De doue without discriminating entirely in fa-
yor Of such as have lest limbs Or sustained in
juries of like palpable and specific nature let
the aggregate cost TO the Government be what
it may
1t is frequently intimated by the Democratic
press that the number of these dependent vet
erans is exaggerated, and that in reality the
demand for such a law as the Presidential veto
defeated comes mainly from those who hope to
profit by it in a speculative way. The answer
to this slander may easily be found in the rec
ord of the charity work of the Grand Army of
the Republic During the past year that or
in the relief Of pressing necessity and absolute
suffering. The total number of persons thus
assisted was 26,606. These facts and figures
show at glance that the volume of want is a
large one; and yet it does not show the half of
the truth in that connection. Only portion
Of the dependents can be aseertained from such
records. There are others in every community
who are living upon private and untold charity,
or eking out a miserable existence with the
IL nf lob bor ypf,i nj n
perform, and which only provides the sort of
relief that is implied in the rapid shortening of
life. There are still others, it is a shame to say,
who are in the County poorhouse worn out
both in body and spirit, and waiting with pa
thetic resignation for death to release them
from their cruel and notifying condition. The
whole number of these unfortunates of differ
ent degrees Of indulgence, it is safe to say, can
not be less than $4,000, and the Government
which owes its existence to them and their fell
low-soldiers does not give dollar to ease their
hard estate.

sHADowED.
One day, while loafng about my Office down
at the depot, l observed a strange-looking fell
low hanging about Every time l would look
toward him discovered his eyes had been upon
me. He was not good spy or detective, be-
cause he at once gave himself away by his too
naked manner of Observing things. l got onto
him at once, because he did not seem to do any
thing but shadow me.
There was also a telegraph Office at the depot ;
the wire extending l believe only as far as the
railroad was operated, to Aqua Creek. / had
not met the operator personally, and, as had
been my invariable practice, ] had carefully
concealed from all strangers, even friends the
fact that / was also a sound operator. ! knew
that neither the detective nor the operator sus-
pected me Of being an operator. As soon as
discovered that suspicious watch had been
put upon me it stirred me all up, and served
most effectively to recall me TO some sense of
the duties or obligations that were expected of
me. For the day or two following l passed
more Of my time within the hearing of the tele-
graph instrument and less in the parlor of Capt.
Wells.
One morning saw the Pinkerton detective
hand piece of paper to the operator, who
quietly put it on his telegraph desk. had to
wait q long, long time and was forced to manu-
facture good many excuses for lying around
the Office so closely.

MIND READING.

There is something which I cannot explain
that instinctively seems to satisfy one Of GER
tain conditions or impressions of another's
mind. In modern mind reading a telegraph
operator has very great advantage overany of
the professional mind readers, from the fact that
by a simple contact Of the hand 10 any part of
the body, The telegraph operator can telegraph
by silent taps or touches or by simple pressure
OF the hands the characters of the telegraph
alphabet, aud thus spell out rapidly any word.
Perhaps this fact viii account for some of the
recent phenomena in this direction.
As / have said, was satisfied in my own
mind, instinctively, as it were, that this fellow
was War Department spy ora Capt. Wells and
perhaps myself, and 1 was Just sharp and cum
ming enough when my blood was up to deter
mine to beat him at his own game. He walked
of some distance while / hung TO the office,
apparently very much interested in reading
a copy of the Christian Commission Army
Bible which had found its way into the Office
there. heard the operator call up his Office
and after doing some routine railroad business
he sent the message to some one Of the chief
detectives III Washington, and was in effect, as
nearly as l can remember, q sort Of report or
excuse for the failure to arrest a certain party,
because he was absent that day, but was ex-
pected to return at night, when the arrest
would be made.
