Libby Prison.

Libby prison has at last gone to ruin
Parties in Chicago had purchased the
concern, with the expectation of having
it removed TO that city, there to be set
up on exhibition as a relic of the war.
Assurances were strong that the affair
would prove financial success. The
freight train which was transporting it
from Richmond to Chicago was wrecked
on the 7th instant near Maysville, KY,
and the wicked thing was broken to
pieces and scattered. 1t is just as well
the old prison met such fate, instead
of reaching its place of destination in
safety. Why preserve above ground
this hideous memento of that bitter
strife? 1t has encountered the earth
too long already; nor did its reputation
entitle it to an end so peaceful. Years
ago it should have been given to the
lightnings and the storm, and its last
piece of brick and timber consumed in
destruction as complete as that OF
Sodom. VermOnt Standard.

Letter from Concord, N. II.
THREE REVOLUTIONARY WAR PENSION
Frs IN VERMONT.

Mr.. Editor: - Colonel w. H. d.
Cochrane, the pension agent for this
district, has moved into the new federal
building at Concord, where apartments
ample and convenient have been pro-
vided for the payment of pensions.
The appropriation for the building,
which is now completed, was made
long after the appropriation for the
building at Montpelier, where the out
side walls are just going up. There are
now $4,000 pensioners paid at the Con-
cord agency, 5000 of whom are resi-
dents of the district, this number being
about equally divided between Vermont
and New Hampshire. The remaining
1900 are residents of other states who,
having been enrolled at Concord, con-
tinue to be paid there. The amount
disbursed quarterly in payment of pen
sions, including surgeons and at
torneys' fees, is about 100000. Pay
ments are made by checks drawn
upon the sub-treasury at Boston. Prior
to 1868 pensioners were paid in cur
rency, and, while many came to the
agency in person, it was the custom in
the country towns for some reliable
bringing the pensioners receipts, and
receive the amounts, which, upon his
return, were duly distributed. Up to
1870 pensions were paid semi-annually,
in March and September. Since that
time payments have been made quar-
terly, in March, June, September and
December. 1t is curious fact that,
from force of habit, some of the ear
ler pensioners now draw only in
March and September. Since the
establishment of the system of pay
ing by check it is unnecessary for any
pensioner to visit the agency, yet there
are a goodly number that do. All
others are paid by check through
the mails, and it requires from four
to five days to make the payment. In
the earlier days of the republic all pen
sions were paid at Washington, but
upon the passage of the acts of con-
gress of 1928 and 1882 the number of
revolutionary war pensions was in
creased, and agencies were established
in the different states, continuing until
the number reached fifty-eight, in 1871
On the LIST OF July, 1877, the fifty-eight
pension districts in the United States
were reduced to eighteen and the
agencies consolidated. The New Eng,
land States had two of the number
The small agencies at Bangor, Augusta
Portland, Portsmouth, Concord, Mont
pelier and Burlington were united and
formed the Concord agency, and the
local agencies in Massachusetts,, Con
necticut and Rhode Island formed the
Boston agency. The consolidated Con
cord agency continued under the man
agement of Edward L. Whitford, wh'
was appointed in 1876, and the pen

Scatter Garlands.

The following poem, for memorial exer-
cises, was written by Colonel j. Holmes
Grover:
Scatter garands DER their graves
Ger the sod of honored braves
who fought and bled in freedoms cause,
who fell in guarding Union laws,
Who sailed forth, with might and MAN.
Who never reached their homes again.
who nobly did our banner shield
who died as heroes the field
Who gave their lives-oh honored braves'-
Scatter garlands over their graves
" Spread roses DER the fathers pail,
who early to the bugle's call
Went forth with zeal, went forth with ire,
Went forth with patriotic fire,
Went forth with locks of sver'd gray,
Went forth to battles fierce array
Went forth the martyrd ranks to swell,
Went forth where horse and hero fell
Went forth his country's earliest call
Spread roses DER that fathers pail.
Irvine garlands fresh around the tomb,
Where lies the youth in silent gloom;
The youth who left mothers side
The youth who to the battles hied,
The youth who never had care
The youth who never knew despair,
The youth who braved the cannon's roar,
The youth who fell with thousands more;
The youth who rests in silent gloom
Irvine garands fresh around his tomb.
Scatter garlands where they lie,
They whose names can never die
They whose lives so brightly shone,
They whose souls go marching on,
They whose mem'ry ne'er can fade,
They who at the last parade,
They who now to earth enthrall,
They who when the trumpets call,
They whose names shall shine on high
Scatter garlands where they lie.
Scatter garlands far and wide,
DER the graves of those who died
Died for country and her right,
Died where bayonets glimmered bright,
Died from mother, sister wife,
Died from dearest ties of life,
Died amid the hero band,
Died without soothing hand,
Died the aged fathers pride
Scatter garlands far and wide.

Isn't it little queer that the Me-
chanics Union, which is supposed to
stand on its merits as the party of
honest labor, should be represented
by Hoapili Baker who confessed in
open Court a little while ago with
edifying frankness that he was a
palace hanger-on, who never did any
work. A man who exercises with
his tongue to the exclusion of all
other forms Of exercises, is a wolf
who does not even take the trouble
to;array himself in sleeps clothing
and anything but proper and dig
nifed representative of laboring
men. It has been the misfortune of
laboring parties in America to fall
into the hands of the walking dele
gate" and to be disgraced or be-
trayed by leaders, whose want of
intelligence or honesty or both, made
them unworthy of their cause.
