ALLOTMENT or SOLDIERS PAY.

valuable service has been performed by
Mr. William f. Dodge. Of this city. in reprint
ing report Of the Army pay allotment system
for the year 1862, he himself having been one
OF the Commissioners charged with the task Of
putting 1t in operation. To this reprint Mr..
Dodge has prefxed a brief Introduction. ex-
plaining the advantage Of the system, and how
force, could be made TO serve highly useful
purpose at the present time. The statute was
quite simple. 1t provided that Commissioners
for each State under the Presidents authority
should visit the various Army departments and
procure from volunteers who chose to respond
written allotments Of such portions Of their pay
as they were willing to send home to their fam
flies. to others dependent on them or for de-
post in savings banks TO their own credit.
Thereafter every volunteer who had entered
into the arrangement received on payday a
draft for the allotted amount payable to the
order OF the person to whom 1t was allotted.
and the rest Of his pay In cash. Thus the full
amount was regularly put In the soldiers pos.
session. but only that part Of 1t which lie IN
tended to use for himself was at his disposal.
The draft he himself sent TO the person to
whom 1t was payable
The justification Of this system lay in the
fact that a soldier having few reai necessities
which the Government did not supply had many
temptations to which he was likely TO yield.
against his real preference and to bis regret.

WHAT DOES THE GOVERNOR THINK
ABOUT ITf

Six weeks ago Mayor Van Wyck turned Mr..
Plotts representatives in the Police Board out
OF their places and put In successor 10 one Oh
them, Thus partly reconstructed, the Board
retired Chief McCullagh and elected Devery
Acting Chief. The new Commissioner by whose
cooperation this substitution was effected there
upon became in the vocabulary of the Repub-
lcan Machine organization. an lshmaellte,
pariah. the unspsakable Hess. Contemplation
of the atrocity made the spokesman OF Mr.. Plaft
hotter and hotter. and they began to arrange
the means of taking fearful vengeance on the
Mayor who had evidently resolved to cheat
their patron and themselves OF the fruits OF
the bargain by which Seth Low was defeated
and Tammany restored to power. The Gov
ernor received notice that an extra session OF
the Legislature must be called forthwith to strip
NE Mayor of the spOils he had snatched. ana
tufn over the police administration to the men
whom he had betrayed. But the Governor was
deliberate He did not see his way clear 10
gratifying their thirst for revenge though as
time went on he was seen to be leaning to the
belief that the Police Board had ceased to be
such body. politically, as the charter, II not
the Constitution, intended the elections to be
controlled by. Nevertheless, the Republican
Machine leaders, being inspired by wrath
to which they tried hard to give the appearance
OF virtue, kept up their denunciations and de-
mands upon the Governor for reprsals, going
to Albany with a formal statement OF their
grievances and requirements and insisting that
stern measures rust be adopted to prevent the
crimes which Tammany was devisng. Less
than two weeks ago they were still In a state
OF the most intense alarm and indignation The
Republican City Committee adopted resolutions
Of highly dam-atory character, and Quigg
made one of his blasting speeches, In which he
described Acting Chief Devery as a scoundrel
who must be removed before there could be
the faintest possibility Of an honest election.
But the Governor had different Ideas, and
stuck to them. The extra session hung fire.
The tempest simmercd down to an occasional
gust OF wind, and then came a dead calm.
People supposed that virtue was tired out. but
