OUR DAILY TALK.

"Lewd" is an illustration of what is called
1.-THE degradation Of words" Originally it
meant nothing worse than the common, ignO-
rant people, as distinguished from the learned
clergy. Chaucer uses il in this sense:
For II priest be foul, on whom we trust,
No wonder Is a LEVIED man TO rust.
IL Il the same case in the fifth verse Of the
18th chapter Of Acts
But the Jews which believed not took
unto themselves certain lewd fellows Of the baser
sort
Here it was necessary to say that the mob
which assaulted Jason's house were not only
ignorant, common fellows. but bad set of
that class. The same degradation is noticed
in VILLAIN" which originally meant country
man, and later a servant. In one of the earlier
TRANSACTIONS of the Bible it reads: u, Paul,
villain of Jesus Christ" Until very recently
vulgar" meant merely common or ordinary.
All Of our middle-sged readers found q depart
ment in their arithmetic devoted to Vulgar
Fractions" Pagan" and " Heather at first
meant people who lived in the country, and
"boor and "churl were the old names for
farmers, while "civil" referred to those who
dWelt in cities.

QUESTIONS TO BRING HOME.

The questions to bring home to the sol
dier-hater in every community are not as to
the aggregate Of the pension expenditures
or the proportion that these bear to the
general revenue and disbursements of the
Government. Nor is it material whether
these are greater or less than the expenses
of England and Germany for their armies.
The questions which will bring the whole
matter 10 focus are:
]. What are the amounts which the PEN
sioners whom you are personally acquainted
with in this neighborhood are getting?
Q, How much of compensation are their
meager allowances for what they sacrificed,
and underwent, and for the services they
rendered.
pensions doubled to induce you TO do as
they did?
4. Is there money enough in the United
States Treasury TO get you TO go through
even one Of their battles2
5. Taking the pensioners whom you know
personally, Is it not your opinion, as an
honest, patriotic man, which you profess 20
be, that the Government has been harsh in
delaying the allowance Of their claims, and
niggardly in the amounts paid2
This will be enough. 1t will not do to
allow him TO talk of indefinite people
in some unknown section scoopng great
amounts out of the Treasury with no shadow
OF right That is all fudge. Pensioners are
alike all over the country, and they are
treated the same everywhere. The veterans
to be found in any one community are fair
sample of those everywhere else. There has
been everywhere the same weary waiting,
tional testimony" the same never-ending
scrutiny for defects in the chain of evidence,
the same niggardiy allowances. Everywhere
are the same kind of soldiers, with the same
history OF giving up everything to serve and
rescue their country, of the same records OF
years of patient endurance and gallant fight
ing, and the same neglect by the Govern
ment.
Bring your soldier hater face TO face with
his veteran neighbors, whose stories and cir
cumstances he knows, and insist that these
are fair sample of the pensioners and APP
plicants for pensions everywhere.

QUITE o number of papers keep up
chorus of disapproval of the attentions
shown the Count Of Paris and his son. The
Republican papers in France and the French
papers in this country, all of whom support
the Republic, and are of course opposed to
the Pretender," are quite angry that he
has been made so much Of, and want to con-
slider it distinctly unfriendly act toward
sister Republic. There is no ground for this.

Total No. prisoners died in rebel hands II 900
Total M snIdiera Turuisha,l h,, NIoi,a IN tny

Think of the horrors of Audersonvllle,
which swept into eternity more than the
entire quota of fighting men from gallant
little Delaware; and of total mortality
in prison greater than the entire quota from
the great State of Maine-whch would have
swallowed up all the New Hampshire men
and VermonteTsl
These men died to secure Union victory
just as much as they would have done in
charging column. BY their sacrifice fully
100000 rebels were kept in Northern pris-
ons and from the lines in front Of Grant and
Sherman.
When their unparalleled suiferngs, and
the rich fruits the Nation reaped from their
sacrifice are considered, it seems incredible
that Congress should hesitate day in pass
ing the modest pension bill which is now
before that body.

down in Andersonville, and they died there.
No statistics of these are available however.
Enough is known to warrant the belief that
more than 10000 (71,O0O, War Department

the hands of the rebels, or within a
few weeks after release. This means the
destruction of mn army of stalwart men lar
ger than any which England ever put in the
field. 1t means more vigorous young men
than there are in several of the States. It's

placing it in comparison with the total num-

IT seems that the result of the recent ex-
periments at Annapolis, where the best
English plates were smashed into frag-
mcnts by our guns, and only the French
nickel-plate withst0od the projectiles, has
produced furore in England like that
caused by the fight between the Monitor and
the Merrimac. The English papers declare
that every armored ship in the Navy must
be re-plated at once, with the new nickel
alloy, and Naval Agent was sent to this
country by the next steamer, TO investigate
the matter, and look up n supply of nickel.
Fortunately, our Congress, acting for once
with wise promptituder has secured suffi-
cient supply of nickel for our own purposes.
